And J. W. P. Huntington:
(Continued from yesterday:)
The death of J. W. P .Huntington
and the known fact that he had a
short time before received for dis
bursement from the federal gov
ernment a large sum in gold set
all kinds of rumors afloat, espe
cially since It became certain that
the money had not been deposited
In the bank of Ladd A Bush,
which had opened for business
March 29 of that year; nor could
It be found that any other bank
had received the money on de
posit. S V
It became rumored that the
money waa hidden about the Hun
tlngtOL. house and in the few
years that followed literally hun
dreds of people searched for it,
high . and low in the building,
which was before long vacated and
had no renters, because of the su
perstition about the house being
"haunted," and in the ground un
der and around the building.

thence north, east, south and west

W
R. P. Earhart, who had been in
the Indian service at the Grand
Ronde agency, a great friend of
Huntington, and afterward for
over eight years secretary of state,
mi nnai term ending January 10,
1SS7, was the administrator of
the estate of the deceased super
lntendent of Indian affairs. The
residence property was on Janu
ary IS, 187 S, sold by the admini
strator to J. J. Murphy, for $700
That was a small sum considering
tne original price of the land, and
the improvements. J.. J. Murphy
was for a long time clerk of the
supreme court and was a large
property holder in Salem and
his estate la yet a large holder of
such property.

with a comfortable home on It,
presumably built by the Murphyi,
Lot 7 was told to Mrs. B. T.
Swart on July tl. 19 IS, by the
Murphy estate. That let contains
the original Huntington home. It
stands now as it was then, in good
repair. Mrs. Swart Is the mother
of Renska Swart, well known Sa
lem business woman and writer,
The old Huntington home Is the
present Swart home.
S
The writer has in the past
heard division of opinion concern
ing this, with the claim that the
present Iwan home next south is
the one that the Huntington fam
ily occupied.
S
But Chas. L. Parmenter, the
well known contractor, was born
September 18, 1859, in the bouse
in which he and Mrs. Parmenter
live, at 809 North Commercial
street, and has lived there all his
life, and the Huntington house Is
ust back of hi. The Parmenter
and Huntington homes had a com
mon alley. Mr. Parmenter played
as a boy with the Huntington
boys. He cannot be mistaken about
the Huntington house being the
present Swart home, which Is at
73 8 North Front street
"a S
And Frank Haaa, who for about
68 years has lived in the Mrs.
N. J. Haas home next north of the
Judge L. H. McMahan home at
791 North Front street, was also
playmate of the Huntington
children. And he made many
searches through the "haunted"
house, in common with other boys
of the neighborhood hunting for
the last gold.
S
That is the story excepting the
mysterious conclusion. The small
price the Huntington home prop
erty brought at the sale of 1878
was partly due to the great de
pression of that year; a part of
the aftermath of the Civil war and
the greenback fight, that ended in
the resumption of specie payments
putting the country on the gold
standard, from 1879, from which
It has not departed. At that time
it took ill in currener to bav a
910 gold piece, and the difference
had been much greater, especially
during the dark days of the great
armed conflict.
There are several versions of
the story of the finding of the lost
gold. R. P. Boise recalls that it
was thought to be about 84000.
Mr. Parmenter thinks it was more.
He also recalls that it discovery
was thought to be connected with

Oregon Statesman,
as a suDscnoer to your paper
1 am going to as a you a Ques
tion wnich I would like answered
In your dally Statesman.
As the times are hard and
people, men, women and young
men and women are wanting to
excaange uetr iaoor tor room
and board, can they, after being
ooaraed and roomed for
length of time (by the state law)
collect wages tor their labor.
Most any farmer could help some
of those that are out of labour,
bat there seems to bo an Impres
sion that those they help aay
turn and collect wages also tor
their time, which the most of us
are not able to pay.
Thanking yon,
A Subscriber.
I The terms of tho agreement
between tho two parties would
bo blading. If the contract was
for board and room ia return for
Moor, no additional compensation
could be demanded by either
party i 1 in
Riverside would be checked against
other plants; decreased accidents
saved mosey for the company. As i
Judge Gary so often pointed out,
the Steel Corporation was no elee
mosynary Institution bat it would
always treat its men as humanly as
possible when it was good business
to do so.
Ted and Pidge came out of the
mill with some of the properties of
the steel they had handled. Pidge,
particularly, had lost his contours
and become a rugged young giant
with one hundred and ninety
pounds of tough stuff.
"Wait till old Pap sees me," he
cried expectaatly.
"Wait till Barney sees you," Ted
amended.
"Looks like I'm all set to sur
prise everybody," Fidge chuckled,
"and the first one I surprised was
myself."
Barney wasn't feeling well He
had spent the summer at coaching
schools and came up to the season
tired; had been bothered with pains
here and there unfamiliar symp
toms for Barney, who had never
stopped driving himself.
"Two bad seasons and they'd
shoot me against the wall with the
rest," he had said to friends who
had tried to get him to ease up.
Football coaching being the pre
carious thing it was, Barney got the
money while he could.
The pain jumped from back to
leg; he dragged it around the prac
tice field with the aid of a stick;
finally began coaching from a chair.
When they tied the Old Man to
a chair he was ia bad shape when
he let them do it, things were even
worse.
"What you should do," Doctor
Blake said, "is to go to bed and
give the infection in your blood a
chance to be cleaned out; give us a
chance to find out where it's com
ing from; stop the source, then a
little rest and you'll be good as
new."
But I ve got these boys out
here, Barney objected. I ve got
to make a comeback this season.
We're building a stadium and must
play all our games away from
home. We must have a good sea
son or we can't pay for that ta
dium next year when we open it.
IH be all right this will go away."
"If you don't take care of your
self youH never see that stadium.'
"Don't kid me now. Doc," Bar
ney laughed.
"Let Bob handle the team
they'd have to get along without
you if you weren't here, you know.
Bob Walsh, the assistant coach,
had been one ef Barney's boys
years before; a bearty, aggressive,
capable chap but not ready for the
job alone.
Doctor Blake went to the presi
dent and the Athletic Board.
"Forget football for awhile,
kindly President Adams urged.
"you must think of yourself and of
your family now."
"Ill be all right," Barney in
sisted, "just a little embolism."
The President was impressed.
"Pay ao attention .to his medical
terms," Doctor Blake advised. "He
kaows just enough about medicine
to hurt himself."
Barney immediately gave him an
argument and he stayed on.
But he was on edge when the
squad Journeyed to siloomlngtoav
to open the season with Indiana.
They had dressed at the hotel and?
driven in buses to the stadium.
very obviously a football team; but
an officious student manager re
fused to open the gate.
"Fve got my orders not to open
this gate for anybody," he insisted.
Barney hobbled out of the bus.
"Weren't they expecting us?" he
asked. t- -
That was Barney out on his feet
but still fighting his own battles in
his own way.
He spoke plainly ia the dressing
room.
"I've been hobbling about on this
leg; doctor's been after me to stay
in bedt I may have to but I'm
here today and I want yon to start
off right. Get that spirit yon had
at the Army last year this is f
winning school; this is a New Do
minion team."
He cracked it out, eyes glaring;
poured h into them; stiflened theit
backs.
"The country will be watching
you today; they'll want to see ii
rou have the stuff to come back.
Win today and the rest will start
worrying; lose today and they'll all
prime their guns for you.
"Now go on out there and start
right. The man who watches a
play turns in his suit I want to see
leven fighters out there all the tune
today eleven winners. I don t
want you to go out there to die
gamely.
'I'm sending you out there to
fight to win."
They won.
Stone got away for a forty-two
yard run for a score in the second
period; in the third Pidge inter
cepted a pass, brought it back to
the seven-yard line and bucked it
over.
Still it was not a good team. It
was nervous, uncertain; missing
signals, missing blocks, afraid of it
self.
"We gained enough ground to
make four touchdowns," Ted said
in the dressing room.
"Why didn't we get them then?"
Stone asked sharply.
"If you'd block once in a while
we might," Pidge answered.
"You can't block and be all-Am
erican youve got to run to be
ail-American," Pat added.
Stone sneered. Barney hobbled in
to see that the trunks were packed
and the chatter ceased.
On Monday he wasn't at the
lecture. Bob Walsh reviewed the
game and gave them the Navy of
fense. "The trip used up the Old Man
and the Doctor kept him ia bed.
Hell try to be here tomorrow;
meanwhile we've got to carry on
and when I say we I mean all of
us. I don't give a damn what you
think of me or of each other off
the field; but once in a suit you're
going to work or get off the squad;
and that goes for everybody. The
Old Man is in a tough spot and if
anybody don't want to help, let him
get to hell out"
Bob was renty he-man and
wasted few pretty words.
Barney was out Tuesday with his
leg propped up on a chair, barking
out instructions and criticism.
Wednesday he didn't show .

tip of a woman who nursed Mr.
Huntington la his last sickness.
He recalls rumors that Hunting
ton had delirium tremens, as he
was a periodically heavy drinker.
Charley Genteel liree in the
basement of the Gideon Stols
home at 575 Court street. Mrs.
Leata Weetacott, not long deceas
ed, daughter of Mr. Stols. who
owned and occupied that home,
took care of Charley, and the fam
ily still takes care of him, for he
is old now, and not capahle of do
ing much work, though for two
generations he waa a faithful la
borer and gardener.
Some years after the death of
Huntington, and after Judge J. J.
Murphy bought the Huntington
property on Front street, a man
came from somewhere or nowhere
and rented the "haunted" house.
And he- gave Charley Genteel a
room and employed him about the
premises. Charley remembers that
the man called himself Myer, but
he doea not recollect his given
name, or that he ever heard one.
S S .
The renter one day disappeared
supposedly with the money
Frank Haas says that, some years
ago, when his memory was better
than it is now, Charley Genteel
told him that he saw the money.
and that the stranger counted it.
and that it was $7000 in gold.
Charley does not now remember
how much it was, or was supposed
to be. He thinks more than $4000
S
It Is supposed that the renter
found the money under the porch,
evidences of digging there having
been seen after his departure. It
may be that the stranger had a
"hunch," and some old residents
thought the mysterious woman
nurse gar him the "hunch." from
words she overheard from the sick
man in his delirium.
Charley Genteel thinks the man
was a German, and that likely he
went back to Germany with the
gold. Bat that is only n fancy.

ever could.

Anyhow, my readers are anxious
to dodge the evil effects of th ail
ment, whatever its name or nature.
Th common cold is an acute in
fectious disease, of which the ex
act cans has not been discovered.
It is moat frequently met in the
winter and spring;.
Everyone is familiar with the
symptom of this disorder. The
sufferer complains of n "cold in
th head," headache, chills and
pain all over th body. An an
noying cough may follow, with
eoDslaerabI pain nad soreness ia

Since the disease spreads rapidlj
by contact, it is best to keep as
much aa possible out of crowded
and poorly ventilated' places.
Guard against cold and dampness.
Make sure that yon receive suffi
cient sleep and rest.
If yon have a cold, give it the
proper attention. Do not subject
yourself and others to any unnec
essary dangers. Stay at home if
you do not f eel welL If fever, chills
and body pains persist, stay ia
bed, heeding the warning signs of
Mother Nature.
Just a day or two in bed may
save you many weeks of unneces
sary and possibly dangerous ill
ness. Warmth, proper medicine
and simple- but nourishing foods
will hasten recovery.
Let me give you a few rather
specific directions. If yon feel a
cold coming on, go home at once
and get into n tub of water as hot
as you can stand. Stay in it half
an hour, drinking' during that time
a ot ox not water er not lemonade.
Bub off briskly with a coarse

tween blanketa. If things proceed
as we wish, yon will perspire very
freely. At tb end ef an hour or
twe, rub off with alcohol or cool
water; then go back to bed be
tween dry aheets.
The next morning yon should
feel fin. If yen eWt you need n
doctor. Yon should place yourself
then in th car of your physician,
and he will give yon th necessary
medicine and advice.
