It was named j tbe southern slave

When a task vas begun In tbe morn

boiue. Sometimes tbey would get hun
gry; then tbe hoe was detached from
tbe helve, a fire started and a boecake
was cooked then and there npon the
hoe. It was discovered by the plant
ers that meal cooked thus was palata
ble, and the boecake was henceforth
made part and parrel of a complete
plantation dmner.
For a boecake take one pint of sifted
meal, one-half teaspoonful of salt; add
lard or fried meat grease and mix with
enough lukewarm water to form r. thin
paste. Spread on a hot and greasy
griddle. Bake both sides browu. Serve

CONFESSED MURDERER
EIVES OVER HIS CRIME
SALEM, Or., July 23. Warden
Charles A. Murphy, of tho state peni
tentiary, return ea irom Wlllamina to
day with William Riggin, convict, who
some time ago confessed to tho mur
der of William Booth, and the warden
made a final report to Governor Wl
thycombo as to his finding in the
case.
The report show that Riggin today
went to the scene of the killing and
described with unerring accuracy tbe
location ot Booth's body as It fell, after
he had been shot from ambush, and
the location ot the body aa outlined by
Riggin was attested to as correct by
Mr. Sherwln, a member of the coron
er's jury, that sat on the case, a lead
ing merchant of Wlllamina.
While refusing to comment on the
findings further than the statements
incfuded in his report to the governor.
it is plain that Warden Murphy place
much credence in Riggin's confes
sion.
William Branson and Mrs. Anna
Booth, widow ot the murdered man,
are serving sentences in the peniten
tiary for tho crime Branson for life
and Mrs. Booth a sentence for man
slaughter.
Circumstantial evidence seemed to
point strongly to their guilt, and there
was little dispute as to that point up
to the time ot Riggin's confession.
With Riggin's act in pointing ont the
location ot the body today apparently
every detail of his confession haa been
checkedup as a black mark against
Riggin.
In going over tho ground' today War
den Murphy and Riggin were accom
panied by District Attorney Conner
and Sheriff Henderson, of Yamhill
county: J. B. Burdette. one ot tho
attorneys for Branson and Mrs. Booth

Portland, and Mr. Sherwln, of Willam-
