THE CHILD PEK1SIIKI).
ludlcatlous Found that Alma Gladys
Miller Was uot Abducted.
All the people of Eastern Oregon
will remember how Mr Miller, living
(i, .n at Kiimmerville. made such dili
gent search to find his littlo daughter,
Alma Gladys Miller, who disappeared
three years ago.
The story of the lost Alma Miller
Is already a familiar one. Tho child
left home in the evening aud fcince
then no positive trace of her has been
found, although the father traveled
thousands of miles in scat-h of her in
the belief that she had been kid
napped by Gypsies who were In the
neighborhood at the time of her d s-
appearance. Hundreds or penpie
turned out and made wnai was sou
posed to be a thbrough search all over
the mountain side, and the failure to
find any clew or even a shred of cloth
ing, strenghtened the belief that the
child had been stolen.
Lately, a skull and some bones were
found at the base of Mt Emily, four
miles from where the little girl disap
peared three years ago.
The place w here the skull was found
is about four miles from w here the
child disappeared, aud the condition
of the bones aud all other circumstan
ces seem to give color to the theory
that the child was not stolen, out
wandered from home and perished.
A further in vest ligation is to be made
ill the vicinity where the t-kull was
found to see if some other evidence can
be discovered that will throw further
light upou the mystery.
All Extra Freight .
All along the S P line, from Port
land to Ashland, freight traffic has
been very heavy during the summer
and fall months. Lately it has in
creased to such a volume that one
train each way daily has been unable
to handle all of It, aud the Roseburg
local has been hauling from two to
three freight cars almost every day.
But in spite of this, freight has con
tinued to pile up ail along the line.
Often three or four cars have been Bet
out at this station by the freight, and
this morning five full cars were left
here, being nearly half atraiuload.
Sixteen cars aro considered a full train
load, but of late the freight lias been
haulimc south from 35 to 40 cars. On
account of the large amount of work
which lias accumulated, an extra
freight train was today started out of
l'ortland to cleau up all alot g the line
as far south as Ashland. This is a
splendid evidence of returning pros
perity. A year and a nan ago me s
1 company was running a light freight
each way every other day. Now a
train a quarter or a mile long goes
Ihundcriuir across the valleys each
day, and every car is filled with pro
ducts of the land, incoming or outgo
tug.
To Bk a Oreat City. Upon ladng
Interviewed Iu San Francisco, Mr A B
Hammond said: "Just imagine, ships
have now to go to Tacotua to load Co
lumbia river grain, lumber and sal
mon, etc, making a detour of fully 000
miles, but when our road is built they
will lie iu the harbor at Astoria instead
and do the loading there. We will
have sidetracks running from all the
canneries and lumber camps direct to
our main line aud the salmon canuer
will have through car service so as to
avoid breaking bulk as he has to do
now. His goods will reach, there
fore, the markets iu better shape and
reflect more credit on his establish
ment, besides the saving of money und
time to enjoy. Henry Yillard in his
wisdom pointed out to me more than
ten years ago that Astoria, the oldest
town In the northwest, will also be the
greatest city of that region in the
future, and his prophecy is now about
to become true!"

The circuit court of Marion coun
ty did a good job when the jury
found the manager of the Albany
Red Crown mills guilty of stealing
wheat deposited therein. When
the mill shut down there was
hardly enough grain or niillntuff
in it to feed a cow over night jet
there were receipts out for about
20,000 bushels. It is not possible
that the manager was unaware of
the fact that he was grinding and
disposing of wheat that did not
belong to him. A few convictions
in such cases would deter un
principled warJiouso and mill
men from usir.g wheat which dow
not belong to them.
