Her father is said to reside at Camas Prairie and her mother at one time lived In Pendleton. The child was forced to herd eht-np and when Marshal Roberts found her, she was on the range tending a umw of Bheep. The case will be heard before Judge Bellinger this arternoon RECORD OF SLAUGHTER.

FIFTY GALLONS PER MINUTE FROM A SIX-INCH PIPE. Second Artesian Well In the Inland Empire Other on Stafford Farm Well Will Be Drilled to Greater Depth. Walla Wnlla. May 12.

Tho vein was tapped at a depth ot 550 feet, and tho water gushed out nt tho rate of 50 gallons per mlnuto from n six-Inch plpo. Most remarkable was the dlscovory thnt tho water loft tho ground at n temperature of 70 degrees, or tem perate, W, 8. McCauslnnd, In chargo of tho drilling crow, had beon at work for two months, and had passed through n variety of Blrata, somctimcH of such a hard naturo ns to almost stop oper ations. "This accomplishment," as a pio neer remarked last night, "meanH more for agriculture and horticulture In Walla Walla county, and tho whole of Eastern Washington and Oiegon, for that matter, than any other previous development of bld den resources, "For 36 or 40 years," continued tho pioneer, "scientists and ngilcultural IstH have been endeavoring to obtain water from tho suhtcrrnnenn depths.

Tho crew nt the Blalock tiirm will not stop drilling at 550 feet, but will go farther In Iho endeavor to secure an even grentor llow. Only one artesian well had prnvl ously been struck In tho Inland Um pire, thnt on tb ti Hpofford farm, but Its flow Is InslKnlflcnnt compared with thnt of the well Just developed on tho Illalock fruit farm, It Is believed that tho tempera ture of tho water In tho new well will bo especially desirable for Irrigation purposes.
