year-old son of A. S Roberts, whore-
Bides at the big beifd of the Deschutes,
Btrayed away froin the house about 4
o'clock. His mtfther soon missed him,
but thinking he could not hayo gotten
far, wbb not alarmed, until a search of
ten or fifteen minutes failed to discover
him. The country is broken and hilly,
full of ravines and gulches, and it was
easy for him to become lost. Failing to
find him, she gave the alarm, and soon
her husband, her aiBter and herself were
scourini! the hills in the vicinity for him.
Not fiuding'him in the course of half an
hour, the neighbors were called upon,
and boou the entire neighborhood had
turned out to Bearch for the little follow.
He being so small it was feared the
covotes would attack him, and it was In
deed a long and anxious night for all.

about sunrise hisfather found him,
chafiing after alband of horses. The
fiiflt thing hefeaid as his father ap
proached him was, "Where's mamma?"
His tracks bad been found during the
night, but could not be followed, and in
his efforts to get home he had traveled
probably five miles, as ho was found two
miles and a half from home. A young
shepherd pup had followed him and was
with him when he was found, and it was
probably due to ttiAt fact It lint he es
caped being attacked by coyotes.
His mother rode horseback all night
in the search for him, but broke down
completely when he was found,

By the so-called "WARNING" of our competitors. Tho threat
made to our customers is nothing more nor lo3s than a big I) hid' of a

concents in tho United Stint's; o,u:h spool is branded "Genuine I!ker
Warranted," and we invito comparison with any other tnako of Wire.
