SEAPLANE TURNS TURTLE, 3 ESCAPE v?'- ---V ; i 1 1 1 l'i,j.- .- The Dalles, Aug. 9. Three men In a hydroplane from. Portland narrwwly escaped with their lives shortly before 8 e'clock Tuesday night when the boat turned turtle, in the 'Columbia river just after : it had descended to the water. In the plane were Vernon Ayres Portland ; Vernon - Book waiter, Coeur d'Alene. Idaho, and Cecil Thomas, who recently returned from Alaska. " All were penned under the boat and Ayres had to unstrap himself from the seat before getting up to the air. All three were given a ducking. . y Bookwalter, who is said to be a skilled pilot, -and Thomas recently purchased the plana from Ayres. whose headquarters are in Portland, and they flew to The Da flea Tuesday afternoon, leaving Portland at 4 o'clock. Scores of persons swimming at the municipal dig at the time saw the plane soaring over, and then watched it descend to apparently a perfect landing on " the rier about 100 yards from the Oregon shore. v 'Almost Immediately it settled down in the water then turned over. - tail over nose until it- waa - floating up side down- . A great hole had- been torn in tho bottom -of tha cockpit. - Ayres said that the, plana, a second after landing - on the : water. , struck ' a floating' log which tore out the botr torn. - The aircraft was dragged in to shore by many -swimmers who went out to its rescue. An examination indi cated that it was badly damaged. . Out-aide of the eoakiiur from the fight in the water to free themselves from .drowning, the occupants at the plane-were none the worse for. their experience. .. . . v Daily Boat Service Up Eiver Started The DalleAug. 9. pDaily steamboat service is again n effect between Port land and this 1 city.

ACCUSED OFSLAY m ARR The Dalles, Ang. 9. WUHam-George, Takima Indian. 33 years . old, was bound ver to" the grand Jury ners late Tues day without bait on a charge of murder in the first degree. The action fol lowed a hearing in which ali tho de tails "Of the alleged -: slaying" of Jim Starr at the hands of fellow tribes men. on the beach a few hundred feet below the buatnesa" district vof The ralles, were dramatically bared. -For tha first i time Tuesday, District ttorney Francis V. Galloway learned exactly when tha alleged murder was committed, through -th testimony of Ed Sam, a young brave residing near Vaderwood. Sam said Starr.' was, slain just, at1' sundown on the evening- of June 27. The body was found floating about three weeks later by swimmers St the municipal dip. ; ; - William George, j the alleged slayer, according to the .witness; was singing tribal songs. There were six in the party.. Including ' Kanne -- Anne, the squaw from Fallbrldge, iBam testified; the women having' supplied them with a liberal supply of , "canned heat- the solidified alcoholic mixture which is the basis of a favorite drink with Indians. All were more or less intoxicated, the witness stated, and Jim Starr protested against the singing. George, finally becoming-enraged; hit Starr over the head with a short' club -or an iron bar. and when his victim dropped un conscious, Columbia Dick, the other ao . ftused man, who has. not yet been ap prehended, .administered the coup d grace by knifing the prostrate figure several times in the abdomen. The two then threw the ,body Into the slough, near at "hand. Sam said, i- " -,-. - Although the affair took place so' close to the city the Indian party was in seclusion In a clump of willows. In the course of a year, hundreds of In dians camp along tha; river at The Dalles, and as a rule no one pays any , attention to tho groups. It wasinatural, , therefore, . that ths crime should not be discovered until tho Indians began talking of it and tho affair reached tho ears of the ' police. v - It is said that Jtm Starr's Widow per sonally sought oat- tho police, told them the story and asked for the -punishment of the murderers of her spouse. When the body .-was taken from the river It was hurriedly prepared for1 burial, : and tho - widow- hauled it to Celilo in a, wagon for burial. District Attorney -Galloway said It will be necessary to exhume . the body ,; and examine-IU-'-U"i--i?.?S':-i'''vi-; - 1 ' At the time It was thought that Starr, who had been released a day or two previoualy from- Jail after serving a term for bigamy, had fallen !:a tho river and was drowned. - ! i L)jilliiM'ilili! si - The New Nestle LANOIL WAVE is approved by every woman who values her hair It's Applied by Expert Licensed Wavers in Our Beauty Parlors on the JSecond Floof. - : , ' - - . - . . . $12.95 Sport Sets $6.98 Sport Scarfs and Hats to match in ery pleasing novelty sport patterns suitable for the beach, street, and out ing wear.
