Walker, of the Behnke-Walker Business
college, own the principal stock In the
cream company and made Howard man
agar. About 10 blank checks, counter-
Igned by Mr. Walker, were In Howard1
possession when he was last heard from
and Just how much he will cash them
for Is problematical, and depends en
tlrely upon the amount Howard happens
to need at tne time ne this tnem out.
Howard was given 1180 with which to
Duy a team 01 horses ror the firm. He
kept the money and the team was not
urchasod. He was given sill to de
posit in the bank and instead of banking
the money placed it In his pocket along
witn tne oanx dook. Altogether Howard
obtained more than J400 from the cream
company with late returns not reported.
Took riTS Thousand In Stook.
Howard had about 1100 on deposit in
the Oregon Trust & Savings bank, which
Is the only case on record In which he
was ever known to lose money. Mr.
Walker sued for a garnishment suit in
the state circuit court yesterday after
noon to recover the money when the
bank pays out.
Another act of Howard's Just before
the exponent of high finance fled to
other parts, was to ingratiate himself
Into the good wishes of Pickers Con
tinuous Advertising ' Machine company
to tne extent or auu. Howard prom
ised to go to work for the machine
company and borrowed 1300 from Mr.
ricKel witn which to buy furniture.
The money was advanced to him to
gether with IS, 000 worth of stock which
ha was to sell. Howard, the money
ann snares or stocK were never seen
again around the company s office in
the Marquam building. If Howard sells
the stock at its race value, and It is
believed he will, he will have $5,000
more to answer for when caught.
Kept Elegant XdTlng Booms.
Howard maintained elegant apart
ments at Wellington Court, which he
furnished lavishly, it Is said, at the ex
pense of the Eastern Outfitting com
pany and Henry Jenning & Sons. Just
how much these furnishings cost could
not be learned, but It is said they rep
resent moro than $1,000.
In speaking of Howard last night. Mr.
Thompson said:
Without doubt Howard was the most
remarkable man I have ever met. He
had a memory that was marvelous. For
Instance, be could go into a hotel, glance
down the register, walk away and then
tell you the name or every person on
the book. He has traveled In all carta
of the world and can tell you the names
of men In more cities in the world than
any other man I e"ver met
"He could manage any business suc
cessfully, but his love for good clothes,
high living and an Inherent desire to
steal will keen him where he is tOdav. I
He was the best advertising man I ever
saw and could tell the names of nearly
every aaverusing urm in tne united
States .
"Howard knows the details of every
known business. He could walk Into
any hotel In Portland and after 10 mln
utes behind the desk, run the place as
If he had been there for years.' He
could talk with knowledge about any
Business irom coai mining to grocery
stores. He knew the names of all the
varieties of tinned goods aold in a gro
cery store and could tell where the dif
ferent brands were manufactured and
the name of the factory manager.
"Howard had hundreds of photographs
which he took in all parts of tho world,
but he never took one of himself. I
tried several times to secure one of him
but could -never locate ona. He evident
ly knew that It would be to his detri
ment to have one and for that reason
refused to m pnotograpnea.

We Control 1 2,000 Acres of the Rich
est Gold Dredging Land in Oregon
THIS MODERN INDUSTRY PAYS FABULOUS PRICES
Our figures, startling in their un
thinkable immensity, are based on the
lowest possible estimate of the riches
to be gleaned from oxir holdings along
Burnt River by means of a modern
dredge, such as has prored efficient
in other places. Our tested areas run
from 25 cents to $2.60 a cubic yard,
and bear in mind, the cost of operat
ing an acre is the same whether the
soil produces 25 cents or $2.60 a cubic
yard.
Just supposing that our further
tests show a preponderance of gravel
running $2.60 to the cubic yard; at
35,000 cubic yards to the acre, the
yield would net $1,071,000,000. We
do not expect anything like so rich a
ield (though this is not without the
range of possibilities), so we will as- trol this enterprise from first to last, claim, proved Its value, and sold
sume it to be one-fifth of this possible selling only sufficient stock to quickly for $45,000.
This Report of 58 Cents Per Cubic Yard Shows
You How Conservative Is Our Lowest Esti
mate of 25 Cents iW Cubic Yard.
Baker City, Or., Sept 2., MOT.
Mr. F. M. Batehelor. Portland. Or. Dear Sir: I am pleased to con
firm to you the following; testa obtained from gravels of the dredging
grounds of Burnt River valley, near the mouth of Clark creek in Baker
county, Oregon. Our company has arew of men working there under
the supervision of our foreman, and sunk a shaft 18 feet deep, and run a
drift from the bottom of the shaft 40 feet on the bedrock. 8ald ahaft and
drift have given the following results: Three feet near surface, no pay;
nine feet following, B0 cents per cubic yard; six feet, on bedrock!, 11 per
cublo yard. The drift has ben' sampled by squares of rlva feat. It has
flven $1.29, $1.20, 92c, $1.28, 11.21, $1.20 81c; average or the whole ground,
8 cents per cubic yard. These figures have been reported by the foreman
of the company in charge of the work, who was a very experienced man.
Anybody acquainted with mining, especially dredging, will acknowl
edge that whereas dredging is considered a good showing at less than 20
cents per cubic yard in other places, such high sampling as the one bars
above Is most encouraging conclusion.

Now About Ourselves
We are incorporated for $1,000,000,
and although our stock is now worth
$1.00 ashare on the showing already
made from our tests, we are still sell
