John O'Leary, who arrived in town
yesterday from Moro, throws more light
on the Kennefick mystery, who was re
ported last week to have died through
injuries received by being thrown from
horse. It is now thought he was mur
dered.
It seems that on Wednesday of last
week a gathering was had at the house
ot Joe Elliott, at which whisky was
freely drank. There were present be
sides Elliott and Kennefick, Al Hembree
and another man whose name could not
be learned. An altercation arose, in the
course of which, it ' is alleged, Hembree
struck Mr. Kennefick over the head
with a bar or club, which produced a
fatal injury. Bloodstains were. found
in Elliot's house and leading along the
trail for a half mile to where the body
was found. Hembree has been arrested
and the others are held as ' witnesses.
The facts will come np before the grand
jury, which will meet wnen tne next
term of court is held at Moro, which
will be on the 13th of March. . i .

The ChboxiOlb believes it a mistake
on the part of many farmers to acquire
all the land they caA get, rather than to
make it a point to iAprove what ' they
already own. The Ibrifty men of the
country precinct re those who have
orchards and grairf fields cultivated up
to the highest standard, and not thOEe
who count their acies by the hundred
covered only with that verdure wbich
nature has supplied from the beginning.
There are many such in Wasco and ad-j
joining counties, I who are classed as
"land poor." It vill be better for them
selves and better fir the country when
these large holdings are subdivided into
80, 50, 20 and 10-are tracts, and planted
to orchard, a ' re-wnse-from which of
from $200 to $500fcan be made on very
acre. Here we ate environed by a fruit
belt which can fairly com pet with any
quarter of the gloe in productiveness,

LOST HET PURSE.
A Midnight Adrentare Which Tarns
Oat AJ1 Right.
Mrs. S. A. Clinton, of Arlington, was
shopping yesterday in The Dalles, and
(finishing her purchases and arranging
everything to her satisfaction, prepared
bto depart on the 11 :40 train last night
for home. She seated herself: on the
train, with her baby in her arms, and
discovered at the last moment that her
purse was missing, which also contained
her railroad ticket. She got off and the
train left.
Stating her less Mr. James Blakeney
and others interested themselves in the
matter and for more than an hour,
looked np and down the streets for the
missing purse. The search was finally
given up, everybody concluding that it
had been picked up, and the disconso
late lady sought her room at the . hotel
Lighting the lamp she was delighted to
find her money lying on a rocking chair,
where she had left it just before starting
for the train. '

contest . for a silver medal. . . Walter
Reavis won the medal, his "selection
being "Patriotic ". Prohibition." His
voice was well suited to the oratorio de
mands of the piece, and gesture and ex
pression were not wanting. The judges
professed great difficulty in assigning
the prize, and with justice. 1 Their posi
tion was not enviable. "The Deacon's
Match," by Fannie , Cheeseman, was
admirably rendered, the selection
abounding in incident and dramatic
action. .. Equally, as well did Jessie But
ler in "How to . Curtail the Liquor
Traffic," a semi-humorous, semi-serious
temperance recitation. Joseph McNeil

the broken English of the Dutch, but
lacked a certain enthusiasm which
