CHICKEN THIEVES
s
MANY HEX ROOST ROBBERIES
REPORTED TO THE POLICE
No Arrests Have Been Made but it Is
Reported That Several are Suspect
ed by the Officers Owners Re
ported to be Cleaning up Their Pad
locks and Shot Guns.
The chicken thief is abroad In the
land, according to reports, and the
owners of feathered bipeds are keep
ing padlocks on their doors and load
ed shot-guns ready for use. Though
no arrests have been made it is said
the officers have some persons under
suspicion and arrests may be made
later.
A few nights ago Mrs. Anton Nolte
drove a couple of roost robbers from
her chicken yards and still more re
cently Mrs. Clyde Finch detected a
couple of thieves in the act of help
ing themselves. She fired a small pis
tol In their direction to frighten them
and was successful in this undertaking
for they both made their get-away In
record breaking time, one going over
the front fence and one over the
back. This had evidently been their
second visit that night, however, for
the next morning it was discovered
that eight fine frys were missing. She
says that next time she will shoot to
hit. Mr. Finch Is with Company L
at the summer camp.
Other instances have been reported
in which hen roosts have been visited
by the night prowler and from the
tenor of remarks made by the owners
of chickens, the coroner may soon
be called upon to act in an official
capacity.

sprinklers are busy throwing water
on lawns and sidewalk with equal fa

the sidewalks won't grow.
The trouble has been brewing for
some time, but yesterday, when a
bevy of girls coming from an after
noon tea, had to walk in the street
for two blocks to avoid having their

TROCT PLANTED IN
MOUNTAINS NEAR SUMPTER
Sumpter, Or. Several thousand
young trout from the government fish
hatchery at Oregon City are being
planted In streams near Sumpter to
day. The shipment of the young fish
is in charge of a man from the hatch
ery, and every care is being taken o
make the stocking of the stream a
success.
Three thousand will be turned loose
In the headwaters of Deer creek, an
other 300 in Downie lake, a land
locked lake about seven miles from
Sumpter; 6000 are for Trout creek, a
small tributary of Burnt river, and
6000 more for some suitable trout
stream near Austin.
The trout fishing in streams near
Sumpter Is hard to beat in any part
of the state, and every effort is made
by local sportsmen to preserve them.
The movement of planting the trout
at this time Is in the hands of C. J.
Johns, Findley McDonald and H. J.
Reilly.
WARNER CASE WILL
LAST ANOTHER WEEK
At least one more week must
elapse before the Warner-Young will
contest hearing can be brought to a
close In the county court. Then there
is no assurance that the decision will
be rendered immediately, but on the
contrary, there is every indication
that Judge GiUiiand will take several
days to consider and weigh the testi
mony which has been taken before
him.
The cross-examination of Mrs. War
ner was completed yesterday after
noon and her side of the case was
thereby ended. The attorneys for trie
contesting heirs were given until
Thursday to prepare their sur-rebut-tal
testimony. The Introduction of
this will require about three days,
thus consuming the balance of next
week. In the meantime some testi
mony will probably be taken at Walla
Walla, before Court Reporter Beck
with, as referee.
YAKIMA INDIANS'
CBEDIT IS GOOD
North Yakima. Wash. Perhaps tht
most enthusiastic visitors from this
section to the Seattle exposition are
Yakima Indians from the reservation
who are making the trip In surpris
ingly large numbers. Especially are
they lured by the Pay Streak, and
once there they stay with it until they
are "broke." Superintendent E. J.
Haaze of the Yakima county building.
Is acting as "father" to the native
Yakimans these days. Sooner or la
ter they show up at the county build
ing with a tale of temporary embar
rassment anil intimate that a loan
would be acceptable. If Mr. Haaze
doesn't recognize thm, he calls In Mrs.
Oilman, the matron, a Yakima pio
neer, and If they pass muster with
her they get the money. The other
day a man and his wife, both Indians,
asked for $25 to get home, and Mrs.
Gllm.m recognized them as "home
folks," and thought It was "safe."
"Safe!" laughed a AVapato man to
whom SuperinU ndent Haaze told the
Incident and the names. "I should
say so. Those Indians hold my note
for five thousand dollars."

DIES A HERO.
Oregon Boy Gives Life In Trying to
Rescue Com.onnlon.
Portland. News was received by
his sister In Portland yesterday of
Albert J. Elton In Goldfield, Nev
Sunday. Mr. Elton was a mining en
gineer in charge of the work. There
was an explosion of gasoline In the
shaft and two men were fatally In
jured. He climbed down the ladder
to their rescue and was overcome by
the fumes before assistance could
reach him.
Albert J. Elton was the son of John
Elton, of The Dalles. He was born
In Wasco county and was 27 years old.
He graduated from The Dalles high
school and also from the University
of Oregon, where he qualified as min
ing engineer, getting his degree last
year. Last fall he went to Nevada
to follow his profession. His untime
ly death In an attempt to save the
lives of his fellow-men closes a ca
reer that had brilliant promise. He
was a forceful boy and man and
would have made his mark In the
world If he had been spared. Active
ind Industrious, he had never an Idle
moment. His vacations wore spent
In work to provide the means to at
tend school, and his ambition was to
qualify for the best.
He Is survived by his father, resid
ing at The Dalles; a sister, Miss Min
nie Elton, teacher in the Center Addi
tion school; a brother In Alaska and
another in Idaho, and two young sis
ters now in The Dalles. He was a
member of the Knights of Pythias,
under whose auspices the funeral will
be held when the body arrives, and
Interment will take place at The
Dalles.
No More Loga on Hlver.
It is the purpose of the Hooth-Kel-ley
company to run no more logs on
the Willamette river, says the Eugene
Register. It Is a treacherous logging
stream and they have lost many log
during the many drives and now that
they have railroad connections, they
will be able to supply the Wendling
and the Springfield mills by rail.
