Creation Finally Determined by
Secretary Hitchcock.
PRESENT LIMITS MODIFIED
ITIany Objectionable Features Will

ful Inspection.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15. Secretary
Hitchcock has finally determined that r
forest reserve shall be created in the
Blue and Strawberry Mountains of East
ern Oregon, but the lands included by
the Presidential proclamation will be
only Government timber lands or worth
less mountain summits. The proclama
tion will not issue until tho Interior De-
pariuieni snau nave inspected every
A i l II 1 1
acre to be included in the reserve, and
to eliminate such lands now inolyded in
the withdrawal as have been denuded of
timber or are owned or occupied by large
holders. Ail towns or settlements and
all school lands and all private ranges
will also be excluded. But, above all
else, the Secretary will exclude, those
lands which were entered for speculat
ive purpose just prior to the depart'
. l : 1 1 i i i .. .
uieuiu wuuurawai Dy parties wno are
believed to have received tips as to the
intention of creating a Blue Mountain
forest reserve. This information the
Secretary today gave to Colonel Emmett
Callahan, of Baker City, who has been
urging me estaousnmenc oi a reserve
Al. J 1 1 1 . t
from which all private holdings shall
have been eliminated.
Secretary Hitchcock says it is his pur
pose to create no lieu base in making the
Blue Mountain reserve or to permit
chances for frauds of any kind. The re
serve he favors will be irregular in
shape, a checker-board in some sections
but will be all government land.
He finds that much opposition that
as been manifested by Oregon people
was based on misconception of the pur
pose of forest reservations. He gives
assurance that the timber reservation
will not in any way interfere with tbe
ocation of mining claims ; neither will
t prevent cutting of mature timber. It
will, however, prevent corporations and
speculators from acquiring title to large
areas of valuable land in this region,
to the detriment of the interests of
settlers. Protection of water supply is
of equal importance to timber preser
vation, he holds, and to this end the
forests of the Blue Mountains will ba
perpetuated. It may be six months or
a year, says the Secretary, before the
reserve shall finally be established, but
when it is created its lines will be per
manent. There will be no just ground
for continued haggling for the exclusion
of some areas or the addition of others,
as has been the case with almost every
reserve heretofore created.
Tan Ilury Wife Alive.
Emporia Kan., Nov. 15 Judge Mad
den, in the District Court last night, de
cided that a man had the right to bury
his wife alive. The case was the City
of Emporia vs. Professer Vanora et al.,
an injunction being asked to prohibit
the professor giving an exhibition of
hypnotism by burying his wife under
ground and leaving her buried six days.
The city claimed the exhibition en
dangered life. The hypnotists claimed
the city had no right to draw a distinc
tion against this kind of exhibition.
Thanks To Americans.
London, Nov. 14. In acknowledging
the final Installment of $75,000 contrib-
I v
uted by Americans toward the Queen
ictoria memorial fund, Lord Mayor
Samuel today wrote Chairman Van Dn
ser, of the American committee, as fol
lows: "The liberality shown by your country
men is a practical demoiitttration ot the
regard and esteem entertained for Her
Majesty in the United States. This
generous tribute will touch the hparts of
the English people."

Fi-ankfort, Ind., Nov. 14. Four men
attempted to hold up tbo south-boond
Monon Express at Cyclone today. The
Uain slackened speed on striking tor
pedoes on the trail, but when the engin

the throttle. The four men fired rapidly
and often, but all the trainmen and pas
senders escaped injury. Sheriff Corns
and deputies afterward caught the men

New York, Nov. 13. -Patrick Bolan,
for seven years a trusted porter at the
Holland House, has been arrested in a
Bowery pawn shop, where he was en
deavoring to pledge for $35 a necklace
of pearls valued at $2,500. The prisoner
was taken to police headquarters, where
be is said to have given information
which will lead to the recovery of jewels
valued at $12,000 stolen some time ago
from the apartments of Mrs. YV. J.
Matheson, wife of a wealthy manutac
tu'er. ,
The police have beea moch worked

"When the butter won't
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. It often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them Scott's Emul
sion.
It is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
Scott's Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be
cause it is so perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children Scott's Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.
We will send you

sample free.
