Totter ing under the weight of his 80 years, "William Eberweln stood In criminal court here and told a simple but' dra matic tory of how his wife, 15 years younger, had pleaded with him to kill "her sind how he had committed the deed. After the old man had completed' the story Judge Wulllng. or Erie. Pa., temporarily presiding In the court, surveyed the bent form of the pris oner, fixed the crime at murder In the second degre and Imposed the minimum penalty, which, In this case was practically a life sentence. It was solitary confinement In the pen itentiary for not less than seven years or more than 14. Holding onto the prisoner's dock ith trembling hands. Eberweln. who Is a veteran of the civil war, told the court that his wife was an Invalid and that one day last October lie went into their home and found her lying at the bottom of a stairway down which she had fallen. He of fered to have her sent to a hospital, but She wouldn't go. "You do it. William.' " Eberwein al leged she said. " "Do what; I asked," the prisoner said. " 'End it all for me; It's no sin when I'm suffering so.' "I had a board In my hand that I brought in out of the yard. I looked it her and guessed It wouldn't be a sin. 1 " 'Go on, William,' she said; 'go on.' "Then i tapped her on the head with the board and I tappej her again. She didn't moan much and once when I stopped she kind'er whis pered: 'Go on, it won't be long.' .

It is doubtful If ever m the history of eastern Oregon has' Umatilla coun ly's wheat crop shown up to bette advantage at this time of the yea The large amount of moisture togeth or with the fine mild growing weath ef has had the effect of advancing the wheat far more than usual for this period of the year. A feature of the reports as to the crop conditions ts that the gral seems to be uniformly good. Accord lng to men who have been from one end of the county to the other there are no bad looking patches. On th contrary, the grain is of a beautiful color and every field Is thriving. instances there are volunteer fields where the wheat Is also as flourish ing as seded wheat. During the exceedingly mild weath er early In the tnontn there was some pessimism over the possibility a freeze might follow the mild spell Thus far the county has been entire ly free from such trouble. There has been no excessive cold to damage the wheat and with the large amount of moisture there seems little danger. Not a single report has yet reach ed town showing any frozen grain One man from the Vansycle country reported some time ago that he would have to do some reseedlng. However his grain had rotted. What the future will bring Is en tirely a matter of speculation for the condition of wheat In January fur nishes no sure criterion as to what the harvest will be. Yet It Is certain that at this time the outlook for a bum per crop could not well be surpassed. Hohoeft Plan Reform. ST. IjOVM, Jan. 20.

It was already dark and In the brush which fringes the base of the mountain they lost their bearings. They heard a call they believed at first to be that of another party and answered. Soon the cry was heard again from the direction of the sum mit. It sounded like a cougar, and the four climbed the nearest tree. After half an hour the two men at tempted to light a fire at the foot of the tree, but with only three matches between them and no dry wood the feat was Impossible. Shortly before daybreak the four descended and started to walk In the direction of Creswell, mistaking that town for Eugene. They stopped at the house of a farmer named Reuger who gave them breakfast and took them to Creswell. The students' clothing was torn and drenched from the rain which fell.
