Crook County Man
Wills Half Million
W. W. Brown of Fife, who has
iniulo handsome iflfta to dilfcreiit
schools and churches throughout'
tho stale at variouM times for the
pant several years, haH drawn a will
which lUiathn Homo I.VlO.OOU to
tho Methodist church In Orison
and Its allied Institutions.
The dorumcnt, which wan made
public one day lust week, divides
tho amount hh follows: f 10,000 for
tho Old Folk's Homo In Salem;
tJO.000 to tho retired Methodist
ministers' endowment fund; 125,
0U0 for the building of a dormitory
fur Willamette University; and
about 1 1.1.000 for tho founding and
maintenance of a school for boys at
some ixtint south of l'ortlund and
near Salem.
"Hill" Hrown. who Is known by
every one In this part of tho Btate,
came to Crook county when a
young man. Ho was a school
teacher, and had littlo or no funds
with which to go into tho stock
business,
Industry and keen business judg
ment has made him one of tha
largest owners of livestock in the
West. He has cattle, sheep,
horses and mules until ho doesn't
know tho number himself. His
lands cover large areas in four
counties, and the horseshoe bar
stock are as familiar as landmarks
every where in that part of the
state.
It Is perhaps timely to state that
Mr. Drown is a man of excellent
health, but a little past his prime,
and the execution of a will does not
necessarily indicate any change in
his closo attention to his vast In
terests for years to come.
Boy Injured by Gaa Engine.
John Huston, tho sixteen-year-old
son of Tom Huston, was critically
injured at the Huston ranch on the
rrineville-Kedinond road, on Friday
While running a chopper which
was being used to chop alfalfa hay,
John's coot was caught in tho fly
wheel of the gas engine in some
manner and before anything could
be done to stop the engine, John
had been badly bruised and cut
about the face and head. He was
rendered unconscious and because
of the nature of theSvounds it was
difficult to tell how great the
injuries were.
He has recovered sufficiently,
however, to be considered out of
danger.
Mineral Claims Being Staked.
Claude C Dunham was in the
city Friday from Roberts. Mr
Dunham Bays that there have been
almost 100 mining claims staked of!
in his country during the past few
days. People from the surround
ing country and some from Bend
have made the filings. Quartz of
varying assays has been found
there. Some of the samples which
Mr. Dunham had with him looked
good according to local men.

Rural Mail Route
Out of Prineville
C. J, Sundqulst was before the
county court on Monday with a
petition for tho opening of a road
west of tho old Gibson placo north
of the city.
Mr. Sundquist has a petition
signed by G5 heads of families for
a rural mail route covering the
territory north of Prineville. The
proposed lino will go north from
the city j) the Pitcher place, west
to tha Grimes Chapel, north to the
Gibson place, west to Sundquist's
pluee and south and west to the
Crooked river, returning up tho
river by G, W. Slayton's to Prine
ville. The route will be 24 miles
long. Tho iM'titionerw arc asking
for a twice-a-week service and as
tho length of route and number of
petitioners comply with the postal
regulations, no doubt the route will
be established.
C. C. HTWiBasket
Ball Championship
Tho Crook County High again
has the basket ball championship
for Central Oregon. They met and
conquered the Lamonta braves
Saturday 'night in the closest
matched game that has been played
in Prineville this year.
The Lamonta team, which, by the
way, was made up largely of former
C C. H. S. students, was stronger
and heavier than the local team.
The visitors lead off in the first
period but when tho half call was
sounded the score stood 21 to 19 in
favor of the school team. In the
last half occasional bursts of speed
were shown by tho visitors but they
never regained a lead and the final
was 40 to 31 in favor of Prineville.
The school boys proved better
guard and stood the speed of the
game better than the visitors.

Mrs. Morse Delights
Large Audience
Those who were fortunate
enough to attend the Lyric Theatre
last Friday evening enjoyed a rare
treat in hearing Mrs. Alma Gitchel
Morse's dramatic recital of Tenny
son's "Enoch Arden." All the
beautiful melody of Tennyson's
lines and all the pathos of the life
story of Enoch Arden were ably
portrayed by the talented reader.
Every word was distinctly audible
to the fartherest ends of the theatre
and the story could easily be fol
lowed. Mrs. Morse is an artist of
rare interpretative ability and
Prineville is always glad of the op
portunity to hear her.
Mrs. Robert Douglas ably as
sisted Mrs. Morse with music es
pecially adapted to the poem.

Worth an Effort.
An effort is being made to get
the government to assist in buying
ammunition to be used in shooting
rabbits in this vicinity. An ap
propriation of f 1000 for this pur
pose would be a wise one. It would
be more to the point than ten times
that amount spent in dredging the
Columbia, or a great many other
things for which appropriations are
made. If you are interested, ad
dress a letter to Hon. N. J. Sinnott
Hon. Harry Lane, Hon. George
Chamberlain, or any friends you
may have at Washington, asking
that such action be taken. The
way to get such legislation is to go
after it and go strong.
