END OF A CIIKQIKRFD LIFE.
This Viennese Had Hiul a Ruocowdon
of Remarkable Experiences.
Vienna, May 17. Since the death
a few days ngo in this city of Herr
ntto, some highly Interesting facts
hnve come to light, which show that
the deceased had lived a remarkably
chequered life. Once n poorly paid
bookne'iter's clerk, he was Induced,
ngalnM his principles, to Invest In a
lottery ticket nt the Instance of his
landlady, who assured him that she
hud dreamed so vividly of a certain
number that it was bound to win.
And. true enough, the number drew a
prize of considerable magnitude. With
his winnings Herr Otto bought some
premium bonds, one of which gnlned
the following year another big prize.
He was now a comparatively well-to-do
man, yet contrived to live In his
old bnre room for which he volun
tarily pnld double rent
About three years afterwards, Herr
Otto wns persuaded to sink most of
his capital In an Invention which
started with everv promise, but an
other, cheapT invention followed al
most Immediately In Its wnke. The
buslnefT enme to grief and Herr Otto
was ruined.
Again the fickle Jndo smiled upon
him. He Invented himself a small,
but ureful mnchlnc which brought
hi ma 'nrge revenue. Once more he
risked his capital In a venture, but It
failed also, nnd for yenrs he lived In
great poverty. One day, when writ
ing his reminiscences, he came across
nn old. forgotten premium bond. The
next rtny he offered It for snle to n
broker, who Informed him thnt the
number hnd come out two years ago
with a prize of about $50,000. So,
after nil, Herr Otto, who had reached
a grent nge, was saved from the poor
house. He died a bachelor and left
his entire fortune to his Inndlndy.
GERMANY XOT A GOOD MARKET.
Few Automobiles nnd Molor Rents
Sold In Hint Country.
Washington, D. C May 16. The
United States consul In Mannheim,
writing In response to nn Inquiry on
tho possible demand for motor boats
in Germany says:
"It would soem that Germany
should be a good market for motor
boats on account of the many naviga
ble rivers, but boating has never be
come a popular Teutonic amusement.
Mnnnhelm, which is situated at the
Junction of tho Rhine nnd Ncckar,
boasts of only one or two motor bonts.
The name undeveloped taste exists In
regard to automobiles. With superior
highways and picturesque, drives, iu
tomoblles are not used for pleasu-o.
"Naturally a people who have, not
cared to drive for recreation have nil
cared to use the automobile and Ger
man factories are soiling their ma
chines largely In England and other
countries, finding the home market a
very limited one, restricted almost al
together to the sporting class."

IM)ORKES EQUAL SUFFRAGE.
Idaho Justice of Supreme Court
PhtulH Willi Oregon Voters.
Justice of the Supreme Court of
Idaho Isaac X. Sullivan, who has been
a cIobb observer of equal suffrage in
his state, endorses It in the following
emphatic terms:
"I moHt earnestly endorse the prin
ciple of 'government by the consent of
the governed,' " says Justice Sulli
van. "In Idaho a constitutional
amendment was adopted In 1896, at
the general election that year, grant
ing to women the equal right of suf
frage with the men of our state.
"Since the adoption of that amend
ment I have carefully observed the
workings of woman suffrage In this
state, and am fully convinced that It
has been conducive to the betterment
of the social and political conditions
of the people of this state. The women
of Idaho take an Interest In the po
litical affairs of the town, city, county
and state, and their influence therein
has elevated the political standard
much In advance of what It was 10
years ago.
"At our general elections a very
large percentage of nhe women vote,
and woman suffrage la now favored by
a large majority of the electors of
our state. I most earnestly endorse
it, and sincerely hope that the good
men of Oregon will endorse. that prin
ciple at the coming state election by
an overwhelming 'majority."
DEFEAT GRAFTERS

White Men Get a Square Deal In ttic
Approaching Solon of Indian Lands
In the Indian Territory and Okla
homa tho Farmers' Union Has a
MemberslUi bf Over 60,000.
South McAIoster, I. T.. May 17.
A large number of delegates of the
Indlnhnmn, Farmers' Union of Indian
Territory Is in attendance at the con
ventlon, which meets here today, for
the purpose of formulating some plan
whereby the lands to be sold by In
dlan citizens may come into the hands
of home owners, farmers and actual
.settlers. The special purpose of the
convention Is to provide for the defeat
of the grafters In obtaining posses
slon of these lands when the restrlc-
tlonr are removed.
It Is the Intention to formulate some
plan to assist each farmer In buying
tracts of land to suit his ability to pay.
Each farmer is to have from 10 to
160 acres. A square deal for the In
dian Is a part of the plan, paying him
actually what the land Is worth nnd
arranging for long term, loans at 0
per cent Interest, thus enabling every
farmer to buy a home. No person will
be assisted who now owns a farm
home, nor will any man be assisted
In purchasing more than 160 acres.
It Is believed thnt In such manner the
land syndicates and grnfters can be
defeated.
The action of the Farmers' Union
In this matter Is being watched with
considerable Interest, for the reason
that in Oklnhomn nnd Indian Terri
tory It now has a strong working
membership of over 60.000 members.
It Is very prohnble that they will tnke
nn active part In politics In some
parts of Oklnhomn this fall, and In
fact their Intention so to do has al
ready been announced In Pottawato
mie county. While they mny not up
separate ticket, they will take a
hand In the nomlnntlon of candldntes
nnd wilt cast their vote for those
men only, whom they consider quali
fied nnd Identified with their Inter
ests. Tho convention will probably
last two days or more nnd will attend
closely to business matters, so ns not
unduly to prolong the session.
ELKS GET CONCESSIONS.
Cheap Rules for Grand Lodge
In
Denver Next July.
Railroad men of this city say that
the best concessions ever made to nny
organization by the railroads have
been secured by the Klks who meet
In Denver next July. All roads In
the Western Passenger association
will sell tickets at reduced rates with
return limit up to and Including
August 20, with' liberal slop-over
privileges, A round trip from Chi
cago, St. Paul, Minneapolis aim otner
Doinls in the central states to Den
ver and return, has been placed at 125.
From Missouri river points the round
trip rate is $15. Kastern roads, as
far east as Buffalo have mado a uni
form rato to Chicago of one fnre for
the round trip plus 25 cents, and be
tween the Atlantic const and Buffalo
the rato Is one furo for tho round
trip plus $1.
These are nlerely samples of the
great reductions that hnve been made
on all lines lending to Denver, and the
movement toward that city for tho
Klks' reunion Is expected to exceed
any previous record In railroading.
The passenger associations In every
section of the country have apparent
ly united to make the Elks' reunion
In Denver a magnificent success.
A large delegation will .go from
this state and will make little Jour
neys to the mines and mountain re
sorts of Colorado before returning
home. Accommodations have been
mado In Denver for 100,000 visitors.
From IrrlRon to Florence.
Rev. G. L. Lovell. formerly of this
city, but lately located at IrfTgon, has
removed from that place to Florence,
Oregon., where he will be permanent
ly located. . He has been pastor ot tho
United Evangelical church at Irrlgon
and will take up this work In the new
field assigned him at Florence.

MAN TUNNEL

IMMENSE TERMINAL GROUNDS
ARE TO BE BUILT.

for Tunnel Coxtiug $1,000,000 It
Means Great Commercial Develop
ment for City of Scuttle Will Re
quire Two Years to Complete It,
Seattle, May 17. Another million
dollar project for Seattle was launch
ed last night when the Harriman In
terests made application to the city
council for a franchise to construct a
tunnel under the city.
The tunnel provides for two tracks,
will be approximately of the same
size as the Great Northern bore, and
will follow a route under tho city
about a block east of the Hill tunnel.
The approximate cost is not given,
but will be about the same as the
Great Northern tunnel a million dol
lars and Its construction will give
employment to a large force of work
men for upwards of two years.
It Is probable that work on the big
bore will be Inaugurated as soon as
all of the franchise matters of the
Harriman lines are satisfactorily set
tled. The franchise provides for the pay
ment by the railroad compang of all
damages resulting from the construc
tion of the tunnel.
The tunnel when completed will
have a clear width of 26 feet, as com
pared with 30 feet in the Hill tunnel.
The crown of the lining of the roof
will be at no point higher than 60
feet above the city datum line, as
compared with i0 feet In the Great
Northern tunnel.
