ShliMMl Peaches Will Bo Heavy
This Year Excellent Fruit Smisoii.
Frcowater, June IS. Strawberries
are about gone In this district and
cherries are commencing to come In In
large bunches. Other small frulU are
also beginning to ripen.
The strawberry crop this year was
very light but a conservative estimate
would place the amount realized from
strawberries at J50.000.
Peaches are going to be heavy this
year, and apples will be about the
same as last yeur, but a better grade
Is expected.
George A. Hardy, whose farm Is
about a mile west of this city, has
thus far won the blue ribbon for hav
ing raised the largest strawberries
ever known lu this section of the state,
he having raised over $700 worth of
berries, known as the Gibson variety,
on one acre of ground which was set
out In plants last year. In one box
there were 14 of the big beauties,
while In one crate Inspected today
there were not more than 18 berries
t' a box. One of the larger berries
was measured and was found to be
lt2 Inches In diameter. The berries
are as thick on tho plants as they
can grow, and Mr. Hardy's crop this
year will net him a handsome profit.
Mr. Hardy's strawberry patch Is In
a veritable rock pile, and one of the
peculiar features of the large berries
Is that where the rocks are tho larg
est, there are to be found the largest
berries.
MARION' HAS 17 PHY PRECINCTS.
Almost llnlf of tlio County Won by
tho Prolils.
Seventeen out of 41 precincts In
Marlon county went dry at. the last
election and were officially proclaim
ed dry by County Judge Scott Satur
day afternoon, says a Salem Item.
There were Just 17 saloons In these
17 prerlncts, divided among three of
them Sllverton, Stayton and Auros
ville. Chemawa and Macleay, formerly
dry, reverted to, the wet column. As
there were two salons at Macleay twe
years ago before the prohibitionists
won there, these two saloons will
likely be reestablished.
Five precincts In the city of Salem
went dry and the whole city mlwed
going dry by; but 60 votes. All three
Sllverton precincts are dry, besides the
following rural precincts: Aumsvllle,
Klkhorn, Jefferson, Mehama, Stay
ton, Liberty, Rosedale, ScotU Mill!
and Turner. In two precincts, Brelt
enbush and Marlon the vote was a
tie and the Judge decided they would
remain wet. Mehama went dry by
one vote. In the dry Salem precincts
there were no saloons.
No protests were offered at the ses
sion of the county court when the pro
hibition vote was canvassed this af
ternoon. The protestants who held
that the ballot was made up wrong,
retreated from their position. A tech
nical defect was found, however. In
the petition calling for the subdivi
sion vote In Sllverton. But as all the
precincts went dry In the subdivision
this discovery was of no avail, for
the precincts were voted dry under
the county petlton, which was not de
fective.

ThelBestlAlarm Clock.
If you have use for an alarm
clock to wake you up these
spring mornings, then you
should get a good one. A poor
alarm clock is much worse than
no clock at all. Tou cannot de
pend upon a cheap clock picked
up probably In a place where
the knowledge of clocks Is un
known. When you buy a clock
from us you know that If any
thin? goes wrong we are ready,
to make good with the proper
repairs.
All alarm clocks guaranteed
and cost from $1.00 to $3.50.

Effort to Recover Ttiosc Tliat Were
Ist by the Flood.
During the high water In the early
part of April F. D. AlcCuIIy, of Jos
eph, who had a contract with the O.
K. & X. company lost a large quan
tity of railroad ties down the Grand
Ronde river, says the La Grande
Star.
Mr. McCully's son Wllmer, who ar
rived from Joseph yesterday, is go
Ing to. make the attempt to recover
the larger portion of the ties that
were washed away. It has been as
certained that large quantities of the
timbers have lodged at different
points along the Grande Ronde and
the young man will take a force of
six assistants and a boat and go down
the river and gather up "all the ties
that can be found.
As rapidly as they can be assem
bled these ties will be put Into a raft
and floated down to the Snake river
at Lewlston where they can be turn
ed Into market. It Is expected that
about $5000 worth of ties can be re
covered in this way and that Is con
sidered to be a much better business
proposition than to lose the whole
thing.

This is the fifth time "Fainting
Bertha" has escaped from her asylum
guardians and she has In addition a
record" for several clever disappear
ances from the Nevada, Mo., asylum.
Bertha Lebecks, 28 years old. Is
considered by the Illlonla state au
thorities and the police to be the
mast troublesome criminal ever with
in the state.
' "Fainting Bertha's" favorite
scheme of robbery Is to pretend that
she has fainted and so well does she
practice the deception that everyone
near her rushes to her assistance,
While they are ministering to her ap
parent needs she robs them of what
ever she may find In their clothes.
They never suspect until they have
sent her on her way recovered. .,
Bertha stole $1000 worth of goods
In two days after escaping from the
Elgin asylum December 25, 1906, and
taking a train for Peoria. On, the
train she fainted and robbed the con

EDITOR IX JAIL.
Refuses Money Raised by Socialists
to Pay His Fine.
At Deadwood, S. D., May 29, Judge
Carland sentenced Freeman Knowles,
the socialist editor convicted of send
ing obscene matter through the malls
to pay a fine of $500 and to stay In
the Jail until this Is paid.. Although
the socialists raised sufficient mon
ey, Knowles refused to pay his fine
and gave notice of an appeal to the
United States supreme court.
The case is attracting widespread
attention. United States Marshal Bul
lock took Knowles to the Pennington
county Jail on his refusal to pay the
fine. Knowles asked Judge Carland

was convicted.
Telegrams were received from
unions and socialistic bodies through
out, the country offering Knowles
aid.
