v During the past three days the local
health authorities have been trying to
capture a man who was reported to be
confined at 144 First street with a dis
ease, first ald to be smallpox and later
leprosy.
A ' friend of the man called et the
health office In the city hall on Thurs
day and reported the case as resembling
smallpox. Acting under this advice
ieputy Beutelspacher visited the num
ber given him, but no sick man was
' there. , -
Since that time it has been a game of
hide and seek and the fugitive seems to
have had much the best of It. "We will
catch the fellow yet." said City Physi
cian Zan today. So far he has had the

' Manila, P. I., Feb. 20. News has
reached here that Lieutenant McRae and
six constables were ambushed and cut
to pieces in eastern Saraar. The na
tives of that section have for a long
.time, been considered dangerous .but the
authorities did not think that they would
would have the audacity to make a
serious demonstration. 4t is'feared that
other murders may have taken place at
some of the, outposts 'from which word

were tortured and cut to pieces until
death followed,
Troops may be ordered to the scene

A HAPPY HOME
ti the One Ton Can Call All Tour Own
and Enjoy life In.
.." Did you ever own a home? Did you
ever have a desire to own a home? Do
1 you want to own a home? If you have
a desire to own one, the way to do so
in in your grasp. The opportune time
Is "at hand. You can own a home, erected
-. on the finest residence property in the
'city. It makes no difference where it Is
located In the Hawthorne First Addi
tion, Hawthorne Park and Ladd's Addi
tion outclasses them all for residence
purposes. ' High elevation, good drain-
' age, fine soil, walking distance of main
part of the city, best streetcar service,
.bar 'none, streets graded, cement
" sidewalks, " gat and "electricity, wa-
ter connection, close to churches and
schools. What more could be asked?
You can have choice of unsold lots In
either of these additions, a house built
after plans made from your own Ideas,
, house erected in 90 days, without a cent
' cost to you until accepted and ready for
you to move Into. Then you pay one
fourth the cost of "house, lot not In
cluded, and after that you pay a nominal
r rental sum, and the taxes and insur
ance, which are never more than $50 or
$60 a year.
No houses In either of these additions
are erected that cost less than $2,000, not
including a lot.
The property offered is without ex
ception the best in the city from any
and every standpoint, while the plan
easy monthly payments is the very best
made. The houses that have so far been
built speak for the quality of material
ana workmanship that are put into tnem.
If you are interested, call and see
Cate c Powell, 701 Chamber of Com
merce. You will find them pleasant gen
tlemen to talk to and they will take
great pleasure In explaining the plans,
showing you the property and the houses
that have been erected. Tou can take
our word for it, you will find it worth
your time even though you did not In
vest HABXVB VOTES.

(Staff Correspondence.)
Irrlgon, Or., Feb.. 19. Let me tell yon
first of all, that Irrlgton, Or., is located
on the Oregon Railroad & . Navigation
company's railroad. 180 miles east of
Portland; 7 miles west of Umatilla Junc
tion and 51 miles nearer Portland than is
Pendleton, . Umatilla county. I locate
Irrlgon thus minutely because the town
is only 60 days old,; and although hun
dreds of Journal readers have passed over
these grounds since the embryo , city a
birth, it is probable that not a score of
them could tell their neighbor within 20
miles of its location. The place la In
Morrow county, and Heppner Is the
county seat. -
It Is probable that . Irrlgon is today
the liveliest hamlet on the Pacific slope.
I find the place a veritable beehive. Mul
titudes of strangers are here from all
sections of the country, especially from
the irrigated regions, and they are buy
ing up S, 10 and 20' acre tracts of land
with an avidity that would almost con
vince a tenderfoot that here is the last
chance on earth to acquire a spot of
poor old Mother Earth large enough upon
which to plant a vine and flg tree under
which the owner' might Worship to his
heart's content without fear of molesta
tion: The cause of this activity is easily ex
plained when the conditions here are
understood. At this moment the country
hereabout is a Vast, almost arid, sand
and sagebrush plain. At least this is the
reputation tha region long has borne, and
in many respects Us character has not
been believed. That there is sagebrush in
abundance will not be denied, and that
there is sand enough-to 'plaster every
dwelling in Oregon and sufficient to spare
to supply the Russian army with that
much-needed commodity, it would be folly
to gainsay. But this "sand" Is largely
impregnated with a rich loam that needs
but moisture to make it as productive
as any soil in the United States. This
has been perfectly demonstrated time
and again by ranchmen who have irri
gated smalt fields with water pumped
from the Columbia . river, which skirts
the nearly 250,000 acres of ground owned
by the Oregon Land & Water company.
Through this large tract this company
has constructed a massive flume and
ditch, .which is filled from the Umatilla
river, from which water will be deposed
upon these broad and level prairies,
changing them from comparatively bar
ren wastes to compare with the pro
ductive soil' of the greenest valleys of
the world. And this is ths cause of the
great influx of settlers to this part fit
the Webfoot state. And, as has been said.
most of these strangers come from parts
of the country where Irrigation is al
most wholly depended upon for the grow
ing of grain, hay and vegetation.. The
man uneducated in matters of irrigation
Is at first exceedingly, chary of taking
hold of such propositions, but he who is
Informed In "this respectis, by his educa
tion, precisely , the opposite of his un
learned fellow. The latter would not be
content to engage in the cultivation of
land dependent for Its moisture solely
upon the natural fall of rain, and the
former is hard to be reconciled to the
efficacy of artificial methods of pro
ducing moisture. Though on irrigated
soil water is had whenever it is needed,
and crops are always sure, there are men
who look askance at irrigation literature
and projects as though they were to be
avoided, while cn the other hand men in
formed on - irrigation will not cultivate
the land In doubtful districts and run the
chance of drouths and consequent failure
of their harveats. Nearly every man in
Irrlgon understands irrigation, so that
the conversation here Is almost entirely
on the subject of fruit, berry, grape,
melon, tomato, vegetable and grain culti
vation, while at Heppner sheep and wool
are discussed from the hour of the morn
Ing meal to that of retirement when
Nature is robed in darkness.
Irrigation means that crops may be
produced regardless of rainfall, and a lit
tle thought will teach one that vegeta
bles, berries and fruitsor any crop, for
that matter grown upon irrigated land
are of better flavor than if produced un
der cloudy skies. Irrigation Is never nec
essary except In sunny regions, hence
everything produced through the medium
of Irrigation Is matured beneath dally
sunshine, which has a tendency to
sweeten and flavor the cultivated crop.
For this reason, and the further one that
there cannot' be a failure of a harvest
where water is at 'the command of the
farmer, Irrlgon is the most talked of
town today in the state, ' and It is not
likely that anywhere else on toe coast is
property changing hands so rapidly,
Many tracts are sold through the medium
of correspondence It not infre
quently happening that the buyer
Is a clerk in a store or bank
in some' eastern city, into whose
hands the company's literature has fal
len. He, or she, makes his, or her, first
payment, according to the company's
terms of sale, which are easily complied
with, but a small sura being required
down, then delegates'to the company the
business or improving the ground, which
It does at actual cost. In this way the
buyer soon has a little principality of
his own, is out of debt, and in position to
set up business for himself. Of course
there are many well-to-do buyers, but
by the company's arrangement a servant
girl' may, by practicing a little .rugality,
own a nest egg that will Incubate into a
supporting brood, making her Independent
of mistresses and a lady of some Im
portance In the community In which she
dwells.- Of course a girl of this energy
Is much sought after, and the end of it
all Is that she becomes a mistress her
self, anxiety as to her future has de
parted, and an exceedingly useful citizen
results. Men of small families are taking
advantage of this opportunity to provide
a home (or themselves, and those of in
dependent means are here to still further
enlarge their possessions.
A large strawberry grower from Hood
fiver, that famous berry region, is plant
ing several acres of strawberry plants
this season,' and next year will have his
entire 80 acres under, berries, vines and
fruit trees. This is the largest tract sold
to any , one person, it not being the de
sire of Manager Hoi brook to sell more
than 20 acres to a purchaser. ,
The water brought to this land will
make it about as prolific as that of the
valley of .the Nile-, fertilised each year
by the overflow of the river, which means
that, $500 each will noi be an unusual
value when placed' upon these acres a
few years hence. It will be recognised,
therefore, that present prices can not be
long expected. There Is sure to- be an
elevation. It may come any day. . Mr.
Holbrook will not promts that It won't.
so if any ' one wishes to get In on the
ground floor," my advice to mat in
dividual is to move quickly. I am told
that-.--Messrs. Brong & Hammer,
MdViri; Alder street, are the company's
representatives ; In Portland, and these
gentlemen will doubtless be pleased to
give all, Information desired by inter
ested ones in that city.
During the 60 days that Irrlgon has
been in existence, a good hotel has been
erected,- a general store - established, a
postofflce put In operation, a lumber yard
started and a great number of ; resl
dencesand business blocks ar4n process
of building. The capacity -of the hotel
is1 greatly overtaxed, and another is
badly needed. This will doubtless come
in good season. There are Openings for
all k.inds of business found in any coun
try. Lots in-'tho town proper are sold at
very low prices at this time, ; and there
are many persons here for the purpose
of taking advantage of these business op
portunities. . From present appearances within five
years the broad expanse of country lying
between Irrlgon and Pendleton will be
changed from a barren waste to a veri
table garden. The sage brush is rapidly
disappearing already, , and the drifting
sands of today will soon be changed into
the berry and fruit ranches of the pros
perous owners of the nearby times.
Melon growers say that the sou or an
this region of Eastern Oregon is most
admirably adapted-to the' production of
that crop. Portland last year paid Cali
fornia melon growers more than $150,-
000 for melons shipped there from that
state, but when Irrlgon has another year
or two upon its age California shipments
to Portland will be a thing of the past.
Its melons come to the Oregon market
in a partially decayed, wilted condition.
Those shipped from Irrlgon will reach
their destination on the Willamette within
Six hours after the cars "have been put
in motion, and fresh as when picked
from the vines. The same will obtain as
to tomatoes, berries and other products
of the Irrlgon country, hence the day la
not far away when this part of Oregon
will supplant California in the supply of
hundreds of thousands of dollars' worth
of edibles to the Portland and Puget
sound markets.
Irrlgon is bound to boom. All this big
tract of country is bound to boom-. It is
booming and the Oregon Land & Water
company, owners of the townsite and the
VUlafarma, as its property is called, will
also boom. It has a good thing her.
i t a. h. ;
Early this morning the Willamette
river was down to II feet, having fallen
two feet during the past 24 hoars. It
Itf now at a good boating stage, and all
fears of a flood have vanished.
It Is expected that the remaining pon
toon on the ways at Vancouver will be
launched tomorrow.
