(Ira.ly and Ford, arrived n Telegraph Creek with Wj ounces of fairly coarse gold which Ihey stated was found on rim-rock at the mouth of Gold Tan Creek. They recorded discovery" but were not particularly xcitcd about the find, admitting that bedrock had not been reached ut any place, but considered it well worth further consideration next season. . "However, some local people got the fever and together with the cap tain, crew and cook of tho river boat from Wrangell beaded for tho new diggings. Government records show that "P to the end of the year Hfci claims had been staked on (iold I an and tributary creeks. No conclusive work has been done and no more is known of llm country than when Grady and Ford enmo out," Mr. Hrognn states that while Orady and Kord wero struggling buck to civilisation with their ounce poke, numerous prospectors in south ern and eastern Oregon were doing the same and going the Cnssiar pros pectors a few better. Mr. Ilrogan and Carl F. Owen of tho Hohemia , mining district, located In T.ano coun ty, Oregon, in tho Umpqun national forest, topped tho rim of Hteambont . creek, a tributary of the north 1,'mp 'qua, for a considerable number of ounces greater than the Cassiar bon anxa, and this of fairly coarso gold, ' but o far there ia far from being a ' atampedo Into the country that lies southeast of Cottage Orove. A Both Brogan and Owen believe that any would-be gold seekers from Ore gon who don't know porphyry from , prune-Btones or gold from "Ked bluff copper nuggets" would savo a lot of grief by confining their hopes of acquiring a "flock of colors" to a region a littio less remote than Gold Pan creek in the Cassiar country, because from present indications the beans will be hanging pretty high in that country within the next few months and the Btikine river is pretty swift for tho outward bound rafts of those who are not Henry Grndys. Mr. Brogan, who baa a genius for rhyming, summarises his views thus: There's always two ends to a gold stampede But we only hear of one. Far the hsndred will fail where the ne stakes good Tbey're Aunt say boy, they're done.

CHICAGO, June 13. OP) The de fense of William Darling Shepherd, on trial for the murder of, by admin istering typhoid germs, his millionaire foster con, William Nelson McClint ock, lost another hard fought battle today. At the oper.bg of court, William Scott Stewart, chief of defense coun sel, Kin Klit to have erased from the record the testimony yesterday of Estelle (iehling. Shepherd's "sunshine girl' and a quotation from a letter he had written o her admitting financial insolvency and nn intention "to cloe my office here and drift away from it all." j Judsp Thomas J, Lynch agreed wito Robert K. Crowe, state's attorney, that while the letter was highly pre judical ag:tinst Shepherd, It wusj pertinent in that it confessed, In hi j own handwriting that he was bank-1 nipt nnd his outlook was hopelens one month before Voting MeCllntoek died innd left him an estate of more than a million .dollars. It was agreed that only n portion of the letter tdioold be permitted to go into the records, and that the parts of the letter which identified it as a "love letter" should not be read. while on an outing trip with bia son, Clifford, near Mabel.

INSURE WITH HEXUt TROMIV caused' all the trouble had been ap proved by the atate board of educa tion and had been used seven or eight years. What I could have done would have been to skip over the paragraphs oa evolutionary develop ment. But all of biology snd most other sciences are basically the story of tbe evolution of matter and of life. 'I was hired to teach science and I went 'ahead and taught it." Just a Country Boy ' Scopes visiting New York for the first time insists that be is "just a county boy." His home is Paducah, Ky., where he was born. His father is a railroad man. He attended the Cniversity of Illinois one year and the University of Kentucky three years. He was graduated a year ago, and the school at Dayton was his first job. Scopes is tall, sandy haired, blue-eyed. His manner is the farthest from the dramatic and bis voice is quiet, hut he has 'the face of an aggressive fighter. 11 This great battle of evolution be gan so simply that Scopes might well think it merely a skirmish. It opened in that forum of American discus sion, the village drug store. "I came in from playing tennis one afternoon and found them all excited at Robinson's Drug store," recalls Scopes. "That was soon after the anti-evolution bill became law. They asked me what I thought about it, and I said I didn't think anyone could teach science in Tennessee if he ob served those restrictions. "Well, 'Doc' Rsppleyea got after me to let them make a test of the law on me. And that is how it started. "Before that I was simply teach ing to get money to go back to school again. I did not know definitely whnt I wanted, but I was interested In Bclence. It has been my idea all my life to mako plans and keep working toward them. And then when the plans blow up and some big thing interrupts, to seize the next best thing promptly and without fear. "All my attention now is centered on this esse. I haven't thought what it is going to inenn to me. I can't imagine what is ahead, but for the present I am going along just an strong as possible on this line." Not a Church Member The young school teacher is not a church member, although of a Pres byterian family. One of the books he brought with him on his trip to New York was John Fiskc's "Through Nature to God." "1 don't know if I am a Christian," he says. "I do believe in the ethical teachings of Christ, and I believe there is a God. 1 do not think I hove been contaminated or ruined by studying about evolution." "What about New York?" Scopes wpit asked. "1 was certainly impressed by the size of the Pennsylvania station When I got in," he soys. "There's no com parison of New York with Louisville, or Lexingtn, or Chattel "ga. But it looks too big to me. 1 do think it is a place where men deal with big things nnd big problems. But I'll be glad, to get back to Dayton. They are all my friends down there, in spite of everything." EUGENE COLLECTION AG ENVY 828-20-30 MINER BLDG.. PHON'C GOO.'W. H. BLOWERS.
