BODY FOUND NEAR AURORA SUICIDE OF JAMES PHEGLEY IS CLEARLY ESTABLISHED BY GREWSOME DISCOVERY. DESPONDENCY THE CAUSE Old Man Had Brooded Over Fancied Injury for a Long While Stabs Himself In Heart and Cut . His Throat. The body of James Phegley, who disappeared Wednesday, December 18, was found Thursday morning by J. W. Cook, of Aurora, In a thicket a few miles south of Aurora. The un fortunate man had suicided by stab bing himself to the heart with a pock et knife, after making a gash In his neck and partly severing his jugular vein. The blade of tho knife was 2 inches in length, and the wounds that were self-inflicted must have caused almost Instant death. The act of Phegley was due to his despondent condition. For months he had brooded over a fancied story that he said was being told about him, and the Sunday before his death he wrote a letter to the Russellvllle Nursery, which had sent him bills amounting to $75, for collection. Phegley was employed by the nursery company, and he wrote a letter to the concern, advising them that "he had got into trouble and would have to skip." In this letter, which was not mailed,, but was found at the home of his daugh ter, Mrs. Rydman, at Canby, Phegley said he was returning the bills and told his employers they would have to look to their customers direct for the money. Phegley went from Canby the day before his disappearance to Wilson ville, St. Paul and Buttevllle, where he delivered Bome trees that had been shipped to these points by the nursery company. He then drove to Cham poeg, where he remained over night, and the next morning about 6 o'clock he started, as he said, to Canby. Lit tle account was taken of his disappear ance until a week later, when his son, Grant Phegley, manager of the Co lumbia Woolen Mills store in Port land, went to Woodburn to spend Christmas with his sister, and for the first time heard that his father was missing. The son instituted a search along the road from Champoeg to Au rora, but found no trace of his father. On Tuesday of last week, as Dr. Ded- man, of Canby, was driving up the Aurora hill, he saw the horse that be longed to Phegley and brought the animal back to Canby. It has since been ascertained that the horse, after being released by Phegloy, went to Needy, where he was formerly owned, and wandered around the country for two weeks before starting back to Canby. Within one and one-half miles of Aurora, before the day had hardly broken, Phegley drove his horse and buggy Into the brush. He took the harness off the animal and calmly turned him loose. After pinning a note to the buggy, with the words, This buggy and harness belongs at Canby. James Phegley," the dement ed man took his pocket knife, that has been identified as his own, drew the weapon across his throat and then plunged the blade into his heart. The body was found about 300 yards from the buggy. Phegley had laid down under the stump of an uprooted tree, where Is body was sheltered and only one arm was outstretched and ex posed to the rains. The remains were In a fair state of preservation. The funeral was held at Canby, Sat urday afternoon, tinder the auspices of Meade Post, No. 2, Grand Army of the Republic, of Oregon City, of which deceased was a member. Lame Shoulder Cured. Lame shoulder Is usually caused by rheumatism of the muscles and quickly yields to a few applications of Chamberlain's Pain Balm. Mrs. P. M. McElwee, of Boistown, New Bruns wick, writes: "Having been troubled for some time with a puln In my Wt shoulder, I decided to give Chamber lain's Pain Balm a trial, with the re sult that I got prompt relief."

SHERIFFS RECORD YEAR Number of Marriage License Just 100 In Excess of Divorce Suits Heavy Increase In Property Valuation. Is The close of the year shows a sat isfactory condition of affairs in the office of County Clerk Greenman and County Recorder Ramsby, where the heaviest fees of Clackamas County are received. Mr. Greenman's fees for the year 1907 were $4938.85. All day yesterday the office force hoped l,n vain that some attorney would step before tho counter and pay the $1.85 necessary to swell the amount to $5,000. Because of that fact that dur ing the month of November the bank holidays were proclaimed, no legal business was transacted, and as a consequence the fees for that month fell off. The abolishment of the Dis trict Attorney fee of $10 in divorce cases has also had something to do with the receipts of the office. For the year 334 marriage licenses were Issued, and during the same period the number of suits for divorce filed was 234, giving the marriages just 100 the best of It. The number of hunting licenses was 798, but the money received from this source goes to the State. County Recorder Ramsby points with elation at the record of his of fice for the year. His receipts were $5338.85, which is greater than any previous year. The number of instru ments filed was 4800, with the excep tion of marginal cancellations. Twenty-five hundred deeds were recorded, and the number of mortgages, satis factions and assignments was 1230. The Recorder's office made 243 cer tified copies and recorded 256 chattel mortgages. The balance of the num ber is miscellaneous transfers. In the offices of Sheriff Beatle and Assessor Nelson there Is also satis faction over the year's record. Mr. Nelson has raised the assessed valua tion of tho property of the county, ap portioning tho Increase to corpora tions and timber holdings, and Sher iff Beatle has made a record In the collection of taxes. The Pure Food Law. Secretary Wilson says, "One of the objects of the law Is to inform the consumer of the presence of certain harmful drugs In medicines." The law requires that the amount of chlor oform, opium, morphine, and other habit-forming drugs be stated on the label of each bottle. The manufac turers of Chamberlain's Cough Reme dy have always claimed that1 their remedy did not contain any of these drugs, and the truth of this claim is now fully proven ,as no mention of them Is made on the label. This rem edy Is not only one of the safest, but one of the best In use for coughs and colds. Its value has been proven be yond question during the many years it has been In general use.
