FRAUD DEALS CHARGED Ernest Case, Brother, Said to Have Used His Education to Cheat Others of Family and Threat ened Sam, 'Sow in Jail. OREGON CITY, Or., Oct. 4. (Spe cial.) A story of family troubles that began on a pioneer farm in Polk County and ended Sunday night at Parkplace In the murder of one of the brothers by another was told today by Cassius M. Case, brother of Ernest Case, the dead man, and Sam Case, who is now in the County Jail, pending a preliminary examination. For the last year and a half, Cassius Case has been living with Sam and he graphically de scribed the events which led to the crime. The wives of the principals of yesterday's tragedy are sisters. Tho murder of Ernest Case came, Cassius said, after a long series of tnreats ty crnusi. Trouble Bearan In Childhood. The trouble between Ernest, on one side. and. the rest of the family of seven girls and four boys, began during- the childhood of the boys. Ernest was the youngest of the boys and. Cas sius declared, was always taking ad vantage of his brothers and sisters. "Sam and I stayed on the farm and worked so that Ernest could go to school," he said. "Sam was a good boy and wo were willing to sacrifice our own time so that our brother could get a schooling. We believed that after Ernest had gone through school he would help us with his education. That was all we expected for reward. "But when Ernest came from school he used the learning- we had helped 2:30, 4:15, 6, 7:45, 9:30 P. M. Please Come Early and Avoid the Evening Rush Properly manipulated, 10c would make anybody the owner of a share of preferred stock, an equal owner with 9,999 other investors. I myself might undertake the management of it. In such an event, speculators would not be wanted. This would be a serious conservative opportunity to turn over an investment many times in a week. Nearly everybody goes to see Moving Pictures. Now the idea is to start a chain of co-operative theatres. If we got together 10,000 origi nal investors of a dune for initial capital we could open a theatre here. Each stockholdei could be prevailed upon to bring two customers which logically would give us 30,000 to start with, and with these agreeing to bring two each and so on, the imaginary company would make.at least $300 a week profit on each theatre. Multiply this with 50,000 theatres, and we would have $15,000,000 a week. But to be perfectly conservative and for safety sake, so as not to inflate expecta tions cut this in half, and you have $7,500,000 a week. In a year this would become $380,000,000 to be divided share and share alike among the 10,000 original investors of 10c. N. B. Surplus capital mijtht be invested in him secure to get the best of us. He has cheated v.s time and time again." Boy Lft Fna, Wedded.' Labon Case, an early pioneer of Polk County, was their father. He took up a donation land claim of 640 acres and timber claim of 300 acres in early days, which. Casslsu said, rapidly in- creasea in value when the county was settled. "Ernest wanted to leave the farm as soon as he was of age and go to town. When he was 21 years old he married against the wishes of my parents. "lamest later was divorced, opened a restaurant in Corvallis and finally mar ried one of his waitresses. X year after nis second wife died, he married again, this time a sister of Sam's wife." For the last five years the illfeeling between Sam and Ernest has been steadily growing stronger. Even their wives were forbidden to speak to each other, Cassius said, although they were sisters. Kmeat Took: Estates, Charee. The Polk County estate of his parents and the estate of Samuel Nealy, an uncle, were taken by Ernest from his brothers. Cassius said. Tho long series of- injuries and in sults added to the feeling between Sam and Ernest. Cassius explained, until about a year ago Ernest is said to have threatened his brother's life. Of the 12 children of Mr. add Mrs. Labon Case, only six are now living. They are George Case, in the East: Tom Case. of Lebanon: Cassius and Sam Case, of Parkplace: Mrs. Bell Booth, of Salem. ani Mrs. jenny neit. or Lenanon. George C. Brownell and Judge Gor don K. Hayes were retained Monday to represent fcam c:ase. The present quinquennial, biennial, a nual and semi-annual activities of the bu reau t.t the census cost approximately $30.

For while the products of digestion nourish the nerve cells, the nerves in . turn control digestion. Thus if aught wrongly effects either the nerves- or the digestive organs the other also must suffer. ' When, for instance, worry, overwork or shock interferes with digestion, the resultant lack of nourishment weakens the nervous system, causing nerve-etrain. This nerve weakness than reacts and still further disturbs the faulty digestion. At such times Sanatogen is specifically help ful first, because it is so easily assimilated by event an enfeebled digestion, and, second, because Sanatogen's chemical onion of purest protein and organic phosphorus furnishes pre cisely the two elements most needed to restore not only the weakened digestion but the im poverished nerve cells ss well. This explains why CoL Watterson, tho famous American editor, was able to writs: "I do not think I could havs recovered my vitality. I have dene, without this Sanato Kta operatins equally upon the diceativs organ and nerve centers. And why Hon. Wm. E. Chandler, format Secretary of the Navy, wrote: "Sanatocen 1 a pleasant nutriment for caacs of impaired digestion. It strengthen without irritating snd promotes vitality la feeble folk a." It also explains the striking endorsement of the medical profession as expressed in signed letters from over 21,000 physicians who have watched the work of Sanatogen in countless cases. And it gives yon the reason why we are so confident that Sanatogen can help you when you give it an opportunity.
