LOST HIS CHILDHOOD LOVE.
Sioux Indian Journeyed 1000 Miles
to Find Her Already Wedded.
Kansas City, Mo. Heartbroken
and depressed, Stanley Love Wild
man, son of an Ogallos Sioux Indian
prophet, passed through Kansas City
homeward bound. He arrived from
Watonga, Ok. and immediately took
a train to continue his Journey. His
sad heart beat for Verba Ponnyback,
daughter of a famous Indian rene
gade, an Indian maidel Wild man met
in his early childhood and learneQ
to loce, whom he found wedded to
another when he reached Oklahoma
after traveling a thousand miles to
once more meet her.
Instead of donning the war paint
and seeking the scalp of his rival,
as in old days, Wildman folded his
tent and set his face westward with
out so much as even allowing his
"star eyes" to know that he still loves
Tier, he said. He is going back to his
native tribe and he declared he
would never again trust a redskin
who Is not tribesman.
Wild man's attire attracted atten
tion. His long black hair was braid
ed in green rope made of horse hair.
He was dressed In a suit of black
clothes and wore a large white hat,
covered with feathers and badges.
His necktie was a variety of bright
colors. Despite th's attire he was the
most composed man in the Union
station. He carefully rolled a cigar
ette and waited leisurely the few
minutes he was in Kansas City. When
accosted by reporters he declared he
could not "savvy" the English lan
guage, but later he gave his name
and told the story of his love adven
ture. Wild man could scarce conceal the
eavageness attributed to his race
when speaking of his Red Wing"
marrying another. The muscles in
his body seemed to contract and he
would throw back his head and
square his shoulders voluntarily. His
email black eyes shone like beads
when he gave the name of his for
mer love. And then he would smile
Just a little and look real sad, per
haps going again over the days when
he wooed Verba Pennyback.
CITIZENS, AROUSED,
RUX OWN THEATER
Dissatisfied Patrons of PlttsfieM,
Ma-s.. hubMr-rilx $50,000 for Play,
lumse.
Pittsfield, Mass. Fifty citizens of
Pittsfield. under the name of the
ittsfield Theater company, have con
ducted the Colonial theater here for
Feveral weks, and their venture has
been successful, not from the view
point of amassing wealth, but In giv
ing g'od play.
Among the fifty men who organ
ized and contributed $1000 each are
Joseph F. Titus, Zenas Crane, Wil
liam D. Wyman and Edward Bolt
wood. The theater was purchased
for $45,000 and theextra $5000 was
given to repairing and renovating.
Alfred C. Daniels resigned as city
clerk and took the management.
Daniel England, Luke J. Minahan
and Edward Boltwood, author, exec
utive committee of the directors, sent
out a signed statement telling of the
company's intentions, and this
brought back many splendid respon
ses from the prominent producing
managers of New York. The first
Shakespearian production given In
Pittsfield In five years was recently
put on.
For several years the theater go
ing public did not get what they liked
in the theatrical line. Several prom
inent men talked over the plan of
buying the house and conducting
tihows which they thought Pittsfield
would support. The first effort came
on Christmas day, and the Climax was
scheduled. Because of only a few
days to advertise the attraction there
was a small house.
"We have no 'high-brow' notions,"
says the company's announcement,
"and we are not theatrical experts,
but we believe that In a town like
ours the theater Justifies a considera
tion not dissimilar to that with which
we regard our public library or our
art museum.

Huntington, Or. The men found
guilty of holding up the Oregon Cafe
in this city have been located by the
officials. They were found to be two
local young men Just out of their
teens. One of them had Just estab
lished a small business. Part of the
money was found In their possession.
They claim It was a Joke and in con
sideration of the return of the loot
there is to be no prosecution. ,
TEN YEARS RRING 12 BABIES.
Twins Three Times, Then Triplets, In
Miner's Home.
Scranton, Pa. There seems to be
an especial affinity between the stork
and the family of Frank Bartofskl, a
miner at Dickerson City, for the old
bird has for the fourth time given un
mistakable evidence of partially to
ward the domicile of Bartogski. His
visit when he- left two girls ard a boy
was the climax of a series.
Early In 1909, when Mrs. Bartofs
kl presented to her husband twin
girls, the proud parent and neigh
bors were of the opinion that It was
a great distinction; but the follow
ing year, when a son and daughter
arrived together at the Bartofskl
home, the hard-working miner did
not go into eestacles ovpr his good
fortune. Last January, when twin
sons arrived to Join the already rap
idly growing family, he actually
frowned over the old bird's fondness
for dealing him doubles; but today,
when Informed that he was the fath
er this time of triplets, his amaze
ment knew no bounds.
In the ten years Mr. and Mrs. Bar
tofskl have been married twelve
children have been born to them, ten
of whom are living. 1
The triplets are normal arid heal
thy, one of the girls weighing seven
and one-half, the other six and one
half and the boy seven pounds The
mother is a woman of about 135
pounds.
MIXER'S LAMP SAVES CARS.
Warns Engineer of Obscruction Put
on Track by Wreckers.
Wilkesbarre. A daring attempt to
wreck the New York and Buffalo ex
press on the Lehigh Valley Railroad
at Warrior Run, near here, was frus
trated by the presence of mind and
quick action of Evan M. Evans, a mi
ner, who, waving his little miner's
lamp, brought the train, containing
three hundred passengers, to a stop
a short distance from the obstruction.
The obstruction, some thirty fet of
logging chain, wrapped about the
offside rail of the northbound track
so tightly that it toook some time to
remove it, would, so railroaders say.
have thrown the train, running at fif
ty miles an hour as It was,- over the
steep embankment.
The train, due in this city at 11:30
p. m., was behind time. Evans,
walking home, stumbled on the
chain, and seeing with his lantern
what It was, and knowing the express
had not passed, instantly turned and
ran up the heavy grade. He had
gone but three hundred yards when
the train swept around a curse and
frantically waving his lamp, with its
flickering light, he managed to warn
the engineer, and the train was stop
ped a short distance from the obstruction.

Washington, D. C. Blended whis

most chocolate drops, bloated oysters,
passe pullets and other insidious foes
of the national digestion against the
inroads of which Dr. Harvey W. Wi

for many years, may now have a
chance to get In their deadly work.
Dr, Wiley has gone off on a new
tack. He Is personally investigating
baby food of all sorts and varieties.
Not a national nursery In existence
will be passed over by the doctor,
whb is Intent upon getting the "most
favored'" baby food In the world, all
because the stork is Imminently hov

food-to-be-happy cult.
Beeanie Benedict Year Ago.
Just a year ago last December Dr.
Wiley's engagement to Miss Anna C.
Knelton, daughter of the late Gener
al Kneltnn, U. S. A., was announced
and the wedding, which took place a
few weeks subsequently, came as a
bit of a surprise, seeing that Dr. Wi
ley had experienced sixty-six years
of bachelorhood.
Mrs. Wiley, who Is president of the
Elizabeth Cady Stanton Suffrage club
of the District of Columbia, an or
ganization affiliated with the Na
Natlonal Suffrage association, has
for several weeks past been relegat

Meantime, all the suffragists and
Fuffragettes In the community at

admirers of their presiding officer,
are busily stitching away at all sorts
of useful and dainty trifles which
will give comfort and welcome to the
little newcomer upon Its arrival.

Portland, Ore. Eight years ago J.
W. Crossley, a resident of this city,
but then residing In Philadelphia,
threw a bottle containing his card
into the Atlantic, off Fire Island, New
York. The card bore a request that
the finder notify Mr. Crossley. A let
ter from Robert Magwood of Mount
Pleasant, S. C, stating that the bottle
had been recovered from the beach
at Cape Romaln on the South Caro
lina coast, on January 6, 1912. Nau

was carried by the Gulf stream north

around the Atlantic before being
picked up on the South Carolina

The week commencing February 4
Is to be Good Roads Week In the
state of Oregon, Governor West hav
lng thus designated it- in a proclama
tion Just issued. During that week he
asks that the people give much
though and study through public and
private discussion to the question of
good roads legislation.
Here In Pendleton a meeting will
probably be called by the Umatilla
County Good Roads association, ac
cording to County Judge Maloney, In
order to assist In creating public sen
timent for improved highways. Judge
Maloney expressed himself as believ
ing the action of the governor a wor
thy one, especially in view of the fact
that the supreme court has rendered
a decision making It Impossible for
the counties to bond themselves for
road purposes.
The following Is the proclamation
of Governor West In full:
Proclamation.
Executive Office, Salem Ore,
January 26, 1912.
Oregon is on the eve of a great
awakening. The morrow will bring
tne Panama canal, and with It will
come unbounded opDortunltle with
their attendant influx of population
ana consequent commercial and In
austnai growth, advancement and
prosperity.
our Creator in the beginning
mouiaea out state with klndlv hands.
When we think of her delightful cli
mate, her hundreds of miles of gold
en oeach. her loftv mountAinst nnil
rushing streams, crystal lakes and
Deautirul harbors, her magnificent
forests and rolling prairies, fertile
vaneys and roaming herds, of her
waving grain and luscious fruits a
land dotted with prosperous cities
and productive farms we must ad
mit that nature has fully performed
ner part. The federal government,
too has treated us fairly in the way
of appropriations for the develop
ment of our waterways and even the
railroads have awakened to the real
ization of our needs and their oppor
tunities and are checkerboarding the
state w:th bands of BteeL
In view of these things we are
prompted to ask ourselves what
should w-e do in the way of co-operation
with these several agencies for
the development of the state? It Is
true that we have given good laws,
good government and good schools
and -many other desirable things to
those who have come within our bor
ders, but much of this good has been
nulifled by some of the things .we
have failed to do and chief among
these is our neglect in the matter o
me construction of good roads.
v itnout good roads there can be
no great development and no great
progress. What we need most is
more people more people In the ru
ral districts. And In order to attract
people to the' rural distric t we must
make rural life pleasant and attrac
tlve. You cannot maroon a new set
tier and his family on a farm in an
ocean of mud, no matter how beau
tiful the spot, and expect to find him
happy and content. He demands good
roads lending to the church and the
scnoois ana good roads leading to
the markets and he Is going to lo
cate in that section where these ad
vantages are to be found.
It is not only her duty but it Is In
Keeping with good business to build
good roads. Money spent for good
roaa9 Is money well spent. When we
speak of spending several millions of
dollars during the next few years In
road construction many are stagger
ed by the proposal and the -figures.
iney apparently are not aware that
the several counties In this state spent
over ten million of dollars during the
past six years for road work, much
of which was lost through lack of
system and knowledge as to scientific
road building.
I he question of good roads has
been fairly well discussed of late and
wo have learned more about road
Dunuing uuring tne past few years
than we ever knew before, but we
still have much to learn and still have
much to do before we undertake on
a largo scaie tno construction of a
system of highways In this state.
We need first: the passage of
model good roud laws. Second: a
competent man at the head of the
highway department. Third: funds
sufficient to carry on the work,
These things will come only
through a clear understanding of the
whole question by the whole people
of this state This understanding
will come only through the study by
and education of, the whole people.
Numerous bills are aoout to be In
itiated or presented to the legisla
ture by the friends of good roads In
different parts of the state; and,
Whereas, it is most Important that
the people of Oregon should give
deep and thoughtful attention to the
consideration, study and discussion
of these measures.
Now, therefore, I, Oswald West,
governor of the state of Oregon, by
virtue of the power and authority
In me vested, do hereby proclaim the
week beginning the fourth day of
February, and ending the tenth day
of February, as Good Roads Week,
and I do hereby earnestly recommend
to the people of this state that dur
lng this period the question of good
roads legislation be given careful
thought and study through public
and private discussion and through
the columns of the press, In order
that knowledge pertaining thereto
may be Increased, public sentiment
crystalized and effective legislation
secured.
In testimony thereof. I have here
unto set my hand and caused the
great seal of the state to be affixed,
on this, the twenty-Blxth day of Jan
uary, 1912. OSWALD WEST,
Bv the Governor: Governor.

ASKS "WHAT IS A GRAXDCHILD?"
Illinois Supremo Court Ha Been
Called l'Kn to Decide.
Springfield, 111. The Illinois su
preme court has been called upon to
decide what constitutes a grand'
child. The Interesting question Is in
volved In the case of Horace A. Coon
et al, against John McNelly, defend
ant In error, and Albert H. Johnson,
plaintiff In error, filed on appeal
from Monroe county.
The suit is to contest the will of
E. L. Morrison, formerly of Water
loo. He died and left a valuable es
tate. He never had any children of
his own but the record shows that
he married Into a large family. His
bride was Mrs. Mattlhgly, who by a
former marriage had three children
and twelve grandchildren. The will
provided for a distribution of the es
tate, and among the beneficiaries was
Albert H. Johnson, a haif-brother of
the decedent. He was given $1000.
Johnson contested the will 'on the
ground that his brother had no chil
dren. He insisted that his brother's
wife died before he made his will,
and for this reason he had no grand
children. The lower court he'.d that
the heirs were grandchildren. John
son appealed. His attorneys ask the
court to decide "what a giandchild
Is."

WOMAN MARSHAL WINS
WHERE TWO MEX FAIL
Serves Writ in $1,800,000 Rnli Bond
Suit ly PokIiik a a Hook Agent
and Fooling County Official.
Kansas City, Mo. On the return
of Miss Lillian Hall, deputy under
United States Marshal A. J. ' Martin,
it became known that she obtained
service on John I. Maddox, county
clerk of Dallas county, Missouri, in a
suit In the federal codt to collect
$1,800,000 on old railroad bonds.
Posing as a book agent. Miss Hall
went to Buffalo, Dallas county, and
served the papers after .two men dep
uty marshals had failed. She read
ily approached the county officers,
who usually are suspicious of strang
ers In the town.
The suit was filed by David YoM
and others of Philadelphia, December
3, 1911. It was to be a repetition of
the old St. Clair County bond fight,
the county officials concluded, and
they believed the best way to defeat
the suit was to avoid service.
The bonds on which the suit was
based were Issued by Dallas county
In 1868, to aid in building a railroad.
The rond was not built, but the bonds
have been standing apalnst the county.
