A'vwvvvvwvvvwvwvwiJ JURY DECIDES HE DID NOT SHOOT AT PENLAND. Evidence Not Strong Enough and Ac cused's Past Standing Had Much Weight With the Twelve Men In Whose Hands His Fate Hung, E. N. I.eRoy was exonerated from the charge of shooting at Clarence Penlantl by a jury in the district court last night. The case occupied the at tention of the court from earlv In the morning to late in the afternocfn, when it went to the Jury. After be Ing out less than two hours, the jury announced mat it was ready to return its verdict, which was for acquittal. The history of this case is quite well known. Uist summer Clarence Penland was at the home of Mr. Ma thlcs, ln the lower end of town, and ho and a young lady were sitting in the ynrd. It was warm weather and they were enjoying the night breezes. Someone came along and walked In to the yard and was slipping toward the chicken house. Young Penland stopped In front of the fellow and atked him where ho was going. Tho reply was: "Look out, young man; you will get hurt." Tho follow back ed out at the gate and young Pen land followed Into tho street. After getting some distance away the flee ing figure turned and fired back at him with the result that the ball barely missed him and came close to the young lady. Penland was well acquainted with LeRoy and ho was positive that he recognized his voice. The matter was allowed to stand, however, for several days before any arrest was made and In tho meantime the ofllcers were trying to locate the right man. Penland and Policeman Fee got Le Roy in Penland's room and secured from him what they termed so near confession that he was arrested and bound over by tho justice ou the evidence. When It came into court, howevei" and the jury heard the evi dence, it "decided that there was a mistake and It could not convict on tho evidence produced. Many witnessses were introduced to show that LeRoy's character had always been of the best and that he had never been under suspicion of crime before. His good standing in the town whore he has lived for the past several years and the fact that the evidence was only one man's word against another and It being after dark when the thing occurred made the jury give LeRoy the best or the doubt.

U Real Es't-i't E. D. BOYD, HI Court Street Oregon, According to Investigation is Safe For Artesian Water. Professor Israel C. Russell of tho United States geological survey has issued a preliminary report, bearing date of September 20, on the artesian basins of Southern Idaho and Oregon, which must prove of great interest to people residing in these fortunate districts. An extract from the report kindly furnished by State Engineer Ross follows: Four very promising artesian ba sins were discovered, one of them, however, being the westward exten sion of the Snake river basin, which was examined in part last summer. The artesian basins referred to are as follows: First (The Snake river artesian basin, which begins on tho east near Glen's Ferry, extends westward b yond the Oregon-Idaho boundary and reaches well into Oregon. The north ern portion of this basin Professor Russell did not examine, but it prob ably embraces the region southwest of Huntington in Willow Creek val ley. Several wells were put ftown in this basin last summer and fall with tho hope of obtaining petroleum, aud nil but one resulted in a surface flow of water. The basin below the arte sian head Is something like 130 miles long and embraces all the land In the Snake river valley between Glenn's Ferry and Huntington and in the low r portion of the Owyheo and Mai S3 A few dozen of knit vests (made by the Hunion Co.) in doll sizes, ss any little girl that wants a vest for her doll, please ask for one 3 luiaiuiitiiiiiiitiiuuuuitiitiiiiiaiaiiiiuuituiiiiuaiiitiiiiUiuuiiUiUiiuiAiniiiiiiiiiiutAiiii Will sell you lots and residences for a small payment down, and balance in installments, or will sell in any other way.

The artesian head is perhaps higher than here mention ed, but of this Professor Russell is not prepared to make a definite state ment at present. Judging from tho data in hand, flowing water should be obtained at Nampa, Caldwell, etc., In the Doisc valley. The total area over which it is reasonable to expect that flowing water can be had is not less than 700 square miles. Second The Otis valley artesian basin embraces the valley of that name in Oregon, where the conditions are such as to justify the hope that flowing water can be had over an area of some 50 or CO square, miles. Third The Harney basin embraces the country about Harney and Mal heur lakes, and is by far the largest and most important basin dlscoverei. Its outer rim measures something like 100 miles from northwest to southeast and 50 to 60 miles from northeast to southwest. The area be low the artesian head embraces prac tically all the flat lands below the level of Burns and Harney and In cludes not less than 1C00 square miles, a part of which, however, is occupied by Harney and Malheur lakes and the adjacent swamps. Fourth The White Horse artesian basin is situated in Eastern 'Orcgoi to the east of Stein's mountain and, as shown by the structure and by warm springs, will certainly yield flowing wells. The area below the ar tesian head is by estimate 100 square miles. Each of the basins referred to is well worthy of development, as in each case there are large bodies of fine land. The total area, roughly estimated, of the four basins where artesian water can be had Is in the neighborhood of 2000 or 2500 square miles. In addition to the study of tho ar tesian basins referred to. Professor Russel's trip furnished much of in terest in the way of general geology and geography, and especially in ref erence to the extinct volcanoes of Southeastern Oregon and the Cinder Butts In Idaho. One of the greatest needs of the people in Idaho and Oregon, who are interested in putting down artesian wells, is detailed Information as to how to .drill and care for such wells. Of all the drill holes Professor Rus sell saw In the state referred to, he failed to remember a single Instanco lu which the work Was done right. In some Instances, as near Burnt1 the wells without doubt would have been highly successful had properl casing been put In, but are classel as failures; and In other Instances wells which are now flowing have de creased In volume owing to caving In of their sides, so as to bo practically useless.
