' 2c3 ESTHER MITCHELL NOT A VAGRANT Regarding the recent story circulat ed concerning the discovery of Esther .Mitchell In an opium den, the Even ing Telegram of Aug. 26 makes this correction. Doubting the story of a woman In the Victoria. B. C. Jail, who repre sented herself as Esther Mitchell, sister of George Mitchell, and who was arrested In an opium den nea Nanalmo, B. C, The Telegram wrote O. V. Hurt, of Waldport, asking him if the real Esther Mitchell had not been at his home since her release from the' Stellacoom asylum. Mr. Hurt replies "Waldport, Ore., Aug. 23. (To the Editor of the Telegram.) The report that has been circulated that Esther Mitchell of Corvai:is, was In trouble In Victoria is absolutely false, as she is at my home, and has been since last April, and is living a quiet life. She has won the confidence and re spect of this community. She ex pects to make her home with us, and can be found here any time, and any one representing herself as Miss .Mitchell is an Impostor. "O. V. HURT." The Telephone Girl. The telephone girl sits still in her chair and listens to voices from every where, she hears all the gossip, she hears all the news, she knows who is I 1. n , , .1 ...V. V, V. W1..n uayy CL1IU VVUU UttB IUQ U1U13B, BUtl knows all our sorrows, she knows all our joys, she knows every girl w is chasing the boys, she knows of our troubles, she knows of our strlce, -he knows every man that talks mean to his wife, she knows every time we are with the boys, she knows the excuses each fellow employs, she knows every woman who has a dark past, she knows every man who inclined to be fast, in fact, there's a secret 'neath each saucy curl of that quiet, demure looking telephone girl. If the telephone girl told all that she knows it would turn our friends into bitterest foes, she could iow a small wind that would Boon be a gale, engulf us in trouble and land us in jail, she coald let go a story which, gaining in force, would cause half our wlve3 to sue . for divorce, he could get all our churches mixed up in a fight and turn all our days into sorrowing nights; in fact she could keep the whole town in a stew if she'll tell a tenth part of the thing that she knew. Ohi brother, .now doesn't It make your head whirl when you think what you owe to the tele pho ie girl? Vernon (Tex.) Call. It Is reported that the heat and rattlesnakes in the Deschutes canyon give the workmen all kinds of grie'. In one camp a den of 38 rattlesnakes were encountered and the canyon U reported to be alive with them. A rattler is not a very agreeable bed fellow, and It is known that they have a penchant for a comfortable berth if It happens to be a cool night. But snakes and hot weather will not stop the railroad. Moro Observer. MAKING PLANS FOR BIG COUNTY FAIR Li Grande, Ora.
