First Reported That She Had Recov. ered, But She Relapsed.-! n to a Stu por and Death Soon Followed No Cause Assigned. One of the saddest deaths that it has been the duty of the East Oregon ian to record for several months is that of Miss May Butt, the 13-year old daughter of Jacob butt nnd the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Morse, who lives 20 miles south of Pendleton, on McKay creek. Last Thursday Miss Butts swallow ed a dose of strychnine and within a few minutes was in a serjous condi tion. Mr. Morse came tc town for a physician, but owing to the roughness of the roads and the late hour no one ventured to go that night Friday morning Dr. T. M. Henderson started to go to Mr. Morse's place, but when within a few. miles of the house he was met by Dr. J. C. Shields, of Pilot Rock, who told him there was no need for him going further, as he had just come from attending the girl and she was then better and apparently out of danger. Miss Butt .vaa very much better and It was thought, to be on the road to recovery, but Saturday morn ing she jvent into a stupor, and died at 2 o clock in the afternoon. No cause can be obtained for the rash act, as the girl had been in the best of spirits and there is no knowl edge of her having had trouble with any one or that she contemplated do ing such a deed. She was rational after taking the poison ?nd said she did not know why she took it The body was brought to town Sun day evening, arriving here about 8 o'clock and was taken to Falling's un dertaking parlors from where the fu neral was conducted today. Mr. 3ult, the father of the girl, ar rived this morning from his home near Huntington. There Are Rumors, Too. It was rumored that Miss-Butt had been mistreated by her foster parents and this was the cause of her wanting to ena ner me, but Coroner Cole has made a thorough investigation and found that there is no foundation for the story. He intended to hold a post mortem examination of the body this morning, but after thoroughly ques tioning those who were familiar with the girl and her surroundings he was satisfied that there was no reason to believe she had been ill treated, so the body was interred this forenoon in the Pendleton cemetery. WATER RESERVOIR CLEANED This Accounts for the Odor Arising from the City Water. A great deal has been said recently about the city water and there were good grounds for complaint, for dur ing the past week it has had a very objectionable taste and the odor aris ing from it was quite strong, especially when the water is being heated. Saturday Water Superind ent Brown had the reservoir cleaned out thoroughly and the story was started that all kinds of filth was found therein, but he says this re port has no foundation, and that the only thing found in the water was a lew boards and sticks which had been thrown in by children and the natural collection of moss and dirt that will collect In an open reservoir. The wa ter was all let out and the bottom swept and thoroughly cleaned, and it again filled with fresh water, and Health Officer Cole, as well as Super intendent Brown, says that the cause of the odor and taste fs from the fact that the water has stood in all winter and become stagnant Heretofore, during the winter season, the water was allowed to run from pipes over town to keep from freezing and this Kept the water in the reservoir con tinually changing, but during the past winter so much of this was not done, because people were paying at meter rates for the-amount used, so that the water aia not change, as usual. Health Officer Cole advises users of the City water to boil it before drink ing, and in this way any disease germ mat migiit be In It will be killed and there will not be so much sickness as lr the water was used as It is.

GiUlmo Mourning Custom. All Eskimos nro superstitious about death, nud. although they hold festi vals in memory of departed friends, they will usually carry a dying person to some nbnndoued hut, there to drag out his remaining days without food, medicine, water or attendance.
