Clyde Hebert, complaining witness, charges that an altercation arose' over the ownership of a desert land claim. Several years ago Bgebe and son filed on the desert claim, but left it. Later Hebert filed on the land. He lived on the property and proved it up, securing a patent from the gov ernment Wednesday. Hebert had been warned by the Beebes, it is said, that they would demand the property as soon as he secured patent. Wednes day he got the patent and straight away went to the city jail at Hermis ton. where he asked to be locked up. He was accommodated, and Thursday morning came to Pendleton, where he asked the sheriff to confine him. He told officials that the Beebes had threatened to kill him. Hebert told how he left one morn ing on a train for Portland and was overtaken by the Beebes on a faster train at The Dalles. Hebert says he was then taken to a. Portland hotel, where the Beebes forced him to deed over the patent ' and send It to the land office at La Grande. Herbert wrote a second letter to La Grande telling of the alleged con spiracy and came to Pendleton. So did Beebe and his son. Despite the bond to keep the peace, Hebert is afraid of the Beebes and begs to be locked up In jail.

"What will you keep the sheep?" she asked Mrs. Harding. "Ah, I never liked sheep, she re plied. "They won't be there: how ever, we 'might keep a few goats." Asked about a joke that is going the rounds in Washington society that she one day wished her husband would dress more smartly, Mrs. Borah laughingly replied: "One day he returned home say ing: "One senator told me today that I was the best dressed man in the senate.' I replied: 'I don't have to ask who said that; I know already. It was Senator Gore.' " But Mrs. Borah told a new ctory on her husband. She said: "One day he .was going from New York to Washington. Two up-to-date women sat in front of him. They were discussing the peace league arid Senator Borah's stand on that sub ject. One remarked to the other, 'You will certainly have to hand It to that clever savage from the west.' They were trying to get a New York Sun at each station, but were unable to obtain one. As Senator Borah left the train he wrote on his Sun; 'Com pliments of the clever savage from the west,' folded it and handed it to them. He received a telegram that evening saying. Thanks to the clever savage from the west, with their initials signed to It."
