White Salmon, Wash., Nov. 20. Charles Frick. who pushed his goods in a wheelbarrow out to a five acre tract on the White Salmon river three years ago, has sold his land to the North western Electric company for J1600 and gone back to Germany to live. When the Northwestern right of way buyers began picking up land along the river Frick became so fearful that some one would get his name to a deed that he buried his deed, some other pa pers and money in a hole back of his cabin and fled from the country in the dead of night. He went to British Co lumbia, returning to Portland in the summer, where he recognized a White Salmon rancher named Murphy, thought he was after his land and immediately left for Eureka, Cal., where he found employment. A few weeks ago he returned to White Salmon and the first man he saw was Murphy. Frightened, he hurriedly left the station and detoured through the woods back of Underwood, approach lng his cabin from the west batik of the river. The Northwestern had ploughed a way for Its pipe line through his place, 'and someone had been dig ging his place, apparently in search of his treasure box. He, himself, could not find it and became almost crazy, believing it had been stolen and that now his wife, who had left him some years ago, would at last "get his land from him." What took him to a pile of refuse which some hogs were rooting over Is not certain, but one of the things which a porker had nosed out was a rusty old can. It made Frick's heart beat as fast as when the bases are full, two men out and two strikes and three balls called, for it was the can which he had burled. The contents were un injured. Frick says it cost him $800 to flee from the country and keep himself from being found, He finally concluded to sell, and though the company had of Exhibit at Land Show Draws Crowds of Those Interested in Experiments Made at the , Oregon institution. . , , ' Farmers, orchardists and stock raisers are deeply Interested in the display of the many types of Oregon soils mads by the Oregon Agricultural college's depart ment of agronomy at the land show.

"If a poor devil of a countfif or a "moonshiner" had been Indict.; said Gray, "he would have beu ed.' But In this case, where the ii. -ful Standard Oil company Is conci ik !, Wlokershara steps in and says: '1 un derstand the evidence is not sufficient t convict,' and directs that the warrni t be not served on Archbold. ' "It strikes me that the Texas f ol eral grand Jury, and not Wickersham, should determine whether the evident n (s sufficient or insufficient. The grau.l jury and a United States district at torney In Texas thought It sufficient. Wickersham's action amounts to a trial of the case by the department of Jua tics and not by a court" - A flouting couch for bathers or per sops undergoing a water cure recently was patented In England.
