FIRST WOMAN
JUROR CALLED
Mrs, May E. Arnold Ex
amined In Weston Trial
Passed for Cause, Excused
Mrs. May E. Arnold, the first wom
an Juror evor examined In Deschutes
county, entered the Jury box shortly
after noon Tuesday to be examined
the case of A. J. Weston, on trial
in the case of A. J. Weston, on trial
for the murder of Robert II. Krug.
She was passed for cause by both de
fense and state, but was excused on
a peremptory challenge of the state.
Mrs. Arnold wa3 examined at rath
er more length than the other Jurors
of today, largely because of her lack
of acquaintance with the legal pro
cedure. She replied to the queries of At
torney Collier for tho defense, that
she bad taken considerable interest
in the formor trial, but had no fixed
opinion. "So far as I know, there
aren't any facts," she stated. As to
whether sho would require the de
fendant to prove anything, she re
plied, "Thai would depend on what
the other side said."
The Btato's attorney elicited a
statement that Mrs. Arnold had been
introduced to Mrs. Weston shortly
before she was called to the stand,
by a Mrs. Buchanan, who knew, said
Mrs. Arnold, that she was a pros
pective Juror. No discussion of the
case had taken place. Mrs. Arnold j
knew Mrs. A. J. Moore, daughter of
the defendant, sho said. She bad ,
heard one side of tho case argued '
by interested parties, but that would '
not prevent her giving both sides a
square deal, although it might trou
ble her in listening to the case, she
stated. I
AH of tho oilier women called to
day claimed exemption except Mrs. V.I
A. Forbes, who could not be served, I

PLEA CHANGED FOR
ALBERT J. MILLER
Yurds Employe Ready To Fight
Drunkenness Charge, Itut
Agent Says Man Guilty,
Within ten minutes after the time
that Albert J, Miller, railroad yards
employe had entered a plea of not
guilty to a drunkenness charge pre
ferred in police court Tuesday,
J. C. Wright, local agent for the S.
P, & S. and O.-W. It. & N., appeared
before Recorder 'Ross Farnham and
stated that Miller's plea would he
guilty. The fine was $25.
Mlllor was Hrrestcd Monday by
Chief of Police Wlliard Houston.

Ton Know, roily," she stammered,
"how It Is between Mr. MacKenzle and
me. I can make him do anything I
say. Oh. If I were free from Oscar
Bennett 1"
"Then you could marry Old Mare,
huh?" Polly Interposed with n bob of
the chestnut eurls, "an" boss him, I
bet."
"Something like that, Polly," Evelyn
admitted. "That's why I've come to
you. When I'm free, I can make Mr.
MncKenzle let up on your people."
Anxiously welching every word,
Polly's quick mind ran on nhead.
"An' to do that," she threw In, "you
got to get shut of Oscar 1 I don't blame
you for wnntln to, hut how he you
goln' to work It. Miss EveJ I can't
see no help for the squatters if your
marryln' Old Marc's part of it."
"That's what I'm trying to tell you,
Polly." wns the quick retort, "hut I
want your promise. You help me. and
I'll help you nnd your people. Oscar
says he'll free me If If you'll marry
him."
For nn Instant Polly's head whirled
ns If It had been suddenly struck and
over her came a weight almost unbear
able. Then slowly she shook her curly
head.
"I couldn't do that, ma'am," she
choked. "I Just couldn't."
"But you said you would," retorted
Evelyn sharply. "You must. I can
save the squatters, -and I will; but
only on condition that you help me get
rid of Oscar Bennett. Mr. MncKenzle
Is going to buy the Bennett fnrm,
and"
"An Oscar'll be goln away some
wheres else?" put In Polly. "Is that
It? He'd take me awuy from Daddy
Hopkins an' from "
Sho caught herself Just In time. She
had It on the tip of her tongue to ndd
the name of Robert Pcrclvnl, but of
course she did not.
"I couldn't ever do that," she ended.
"Never; never I"
The blue eyes looked Into the brown
eyes seriously.
"Oh, yes. you can," Insisted Miss
Robertson. "Oscar's not the worst In
the world, nnd he'll have a lot of
money when he leaves Ithaca. He
loves you, Pollyop. and he'd make life
easy and pleasant for you."
A thoughtful mompnt or two passed,
while Polly Hopkins gazed at her
hands locked together In her lap.
"You can't tell me nothln' about Os
car." she remarked at length. "I know
the dirty duffer, an' I don't know
nothln' good about him. you can bet
yonrhoots on that." She paused while
through the open doorway her eyes
were fixed upon a fleecy cloud, high
up In the deep blue sky. "But that
don't make no difference." she contin
ued. "If I linked up with Osenr, would
that pup. Old Mare, let the squatters
stay In the Silent City?"
"Why, Polly, dear, of course he will !
I talked with Oscar last night, and I'll
speak to Mr. MacKenzle Just as soon
as you promise to do what Oscar
wants.
Again the smiling fare of Robert
Perclvnl cut uciosx Polly Hopkins'
mental vision, and through the silence
of the shnnty she hend his voice deep,
low and like music. Then the evil
face of Bennett wormed Itself Into her
uilud. Her lids drooped, and she shud
dered. "I couldn't do It, ma'am." she
walled. "1 Just couldn't do that I"
Evelyn arose and stood over her.
"You must, Polly," tdie asserted
ognln. "Good henvens, It's the chance
of your life! Of course you'll do It,
Polly Hopkins. Tuke n little time to
Ihlnk It over. I'll bring Oscar to see
you some day when Mr. MncKenzle
and my cousin Robert are nway."
At the sound of that beloved name,
Polly's head fell forward.
"Scoot now," she said, her curls hid
ing her face. "I'll think about It."
After Evelyn had gone, Polly me
chanically resumed her sewing. It
seemed that her heart's Joy hud wholly
died within her. Patluntly she tried
to turn her attention to the work In
her hands, hut again nnd again she
rntight herself sitting with idle fingers.
Finally, worried by the conflicting
emotions that were crowding In upon
her, Polly flung herself Into the open
and ran swiftly along the ragged rocks
to a little glen where many a time she
hud been before. Here she wuded
through the brook and sank down he
side It. Mind picture after mlnd-plc-tine
passed before her. She saw
Daddy Hopkins happy with Jerry In
the shanty, no longer afraid to fish
nnd hunt. Then she vlsloned the Si
lent City, safe at Inst, and saved by
her. Her head sank into her hands;
and sobs racked her slender body.
But tt wns not long before she snt
up and tossed back her curls. It
seemed ns If she had heard u voice.
Sho turned her head slowly; and lo,
Robert Perclvnl wns standing across
the creek, smiling at her.
"I followed you, Polly Hopkins," he
culled, and springing across the wnter,
J- I
he added: "You run so fsM i lost you
at the corner of the ragged rocks, mid
It's taken me all this time to tlnd you."
He sat down beside her nod took her
hnnds; but Polly could not look up
nt him. Ktnbnrmwd beyond utter
ance, she withdrew her lingers, letting
them fall listlessly, Robert laughed.
Her lovely face, first white then scar
let, only told him that she wns glad
to see It I tit. nnd spoke of girlish Inno
cence, dear to all men.
"You went awn) so suddenly the
other night," he rnn on. "I didn't ltne
a chnnre to say half I wanted to. I
had something for you, too, hut
couldn't get away until today to bring
It down."
He pulled n little roll of paper from
his pocket and handed It to her. Won
derlngly she opened It, nnd there was
nn exact reproduction of "Tho Great
est Mother In the World."
Polly was so oercomc she contin
ued silent.
"Don't you like It. little Pollyop?"
queried Robert, putting his fingers un
der her chin nnd raining her face to
his.
"Yepl" she whispered, blushing.
"Sure, sure I do. I love It."
"Then why don't you smile?" he de
manded; and ns she shyly compiled
with his request, he ran on: "I've
talked with MacKenzle. nnd he's so
set Confound it I Ho makes me so
hot I can scarcely listen to him. But.
Polly dear, I'll do everything I cnn.
I've got money nnd friends, as well us
he has, and I'll use 'em too. Will you
trust me. sweet?"
She bowed her hend In grateful as
sent. How she thrilled at the touch
of the warm, white hand I
"Look nt me. denrle." he begged,
and, when sho did Hush him a rosy
glance, he caught her to tiltn. "I love
you. little girl," he whispered.
"An' lovo's the greatest thing In
Ithaca, ain't It?" she murmured In
trembling confusion.
"Yes, yes," he breathed. "Little
girl oh. my littlest dear "
His voice trailed away, and his pas
sionate kisses mnde Polly Hopkins for
get everything hut him. Primeval pas
sion rose within her. She had found
her man, nnd nothing should take him
from her.
Then while Robert wns telling her
of his hopes anil plnns, rehenrslng his
love for her and bis desire to help her
read and study, they walked slowly
back along the ragged rocks In the di
rection of the shnnty.
They werp nlmost at Polly's home
before he left her. She watrhed him
stride up the hill, and, nfter he hnd
disappeared, she threw herself fiat
upon the earth; and mingled with the
bird's song In the willow trees, nnd the
rippling of the waves upon the shore,
came her cry:
"Oh, God denr, I can't mnrry Osenr.
I can't ! You'll have to help the squat
ters some other way, dnrlln'"
The dnys that followed, bringing
with the spring flowers flocks of sum
mer hjrds. seemed nn eternity to Polly
Hopkins. She went about her duties
as one In a dream. In spite of Rob
ert's efforts, several of the fishermen
hnd been sent to the Ithnca Jail for
pefty'crlmes.
Two men hnd been trapped In the
Bad Man's ravine and Inken off to the
Jail without so iniirh as a fnrcwell to
their fumllles. Polly had groaned with
their women nnd wept over their ba
bies. She wns quite sure Perclval was
doing everything anybody could do;
but sometimes the thought of Evelyn's
demand Intruded on her mind, nnd she
wondered If sho were doing right in
refusing It.
One morning at daybreak Polly saw
her father lift his gun from the wall
nnd sit down to clean It. Now, why
wns he doing Hint, ulien he knew very
well he could not use It? She stood
looking down upon him, her heart
beating rapidly.
"You ain't goln' lo hunt yet, honey,"
she protested, squatting down beside
him.
"Yep," returned Hopkins glancing
up. "There ain't no one nstlr bo early,
an' I'll bring buck something, mehhu
ii woodchuck or a skunk. We nln't
had enough to keep a mess of flies
alive since Old Marc got back,"
That was true! No one knew better
than Pollyop how they llud missed the
little sho hnd received from Bennett.
Sick at heurt, she snutched at Ids
hand.
"We might best be without grnb,
Daddy," she said passionately. "Awl
Don't start rabbin' It up again I You'll
get pinched, If you hunt nut or season,
no mntter what you shoot. For less
than carryln' a gun, Old Marc's got a
bunch of our men. You shan't do It,
Daddy. You shan't, I say!"
If only she could persuade him nol
to hunt until Robert hud come to nn
understanding with MncKenzle, If he
didn't succeed (hen she knew another
wuy.

kins.
I'll he hark before any of Old Mil re's
spies turn over for another nap."
Polly knew her fulher well enough
not to make another appeal. She
dressed Wee Jerry ut Jeremiah's com
mnud, nnd thru, troubled In spirit,
watched him stride nwtiy In the keen
morning air.
It had been derided among the
squatter men that to keep the breath
of life In llielr women and children
they must hunt uud fish, but that
nothing should be caught Hint the law
forhnde. It wns this thought tlmt nns
running through the squatter's mind
as he crept up to see If a woodchuck
had ventured out. One was sitting
up, taking a suvcy of the neigh
borhood, when Hopkins lifted his gun;
and with one shnrp crock und helch
of smoke the furry fellow tumbled
over.
The squatter sttodc forward and
was In the art of picking It up when
three men appeared us If they had
sprung from the eurtli nnd with raised
pistols closed In upon III in.
Jeremiah's huge Jaw dropped at the
sight of them, und Wee Jerry's fingers
caught tight hold of his shnggy hulr.
"Drop that gun," cried one mun, nnd
the still smoking rifle fell to the earth.
It took but a moment to snnp a pair
of hundcufTx nhout the dazed mini's
wrists. It vtiin while Jeremiah's fine
was turned upward to quiet the
screaming Jerry that one of the men
quickly substituted a dead squirrel,
and another uent auuy with the dead
woodchuck. Then the third sllpHd a
chain around one of Daddy's wrists
und led him down the hill lo the rug
ged rocks, the child still clinging to
his neck.
Polly was slnudliig under a willow
tree as her eyes cuught sight of Duddy
Hopkins und Wee Jerry between two
men. One of them strode along, u lit
tle dead body dangling from one hum),
while held In the other hand was her
father's gun. She ran towurd them,
giving spasmodic cries of dismay.
"Daddy I" she screamed.
No answer ciiine from the blinking
squatter.
"We rntight him with the goods on,"
one man sneered nt her.
"But you're goln' to leave him with
me," she shrilled, making her appeal
to the mun who stood rloe to Jere
miah. "Duildy'll promise not to hunt
no more, won't you, honey? Oh, God!
You suld you wouldn't shoot nothln'
the law said you couldn't,"
"I didn't, brat," grunted Hopkins.
Then his eye enught sight of the
squirrel, anil his Jaw dropped. A
hoarse groan fell from lilm.
"I didn't shoot no pqulrrel, Poll," lie
cried out to her, "I got Hint ti(
chuck I were tellln' you about." Then,
turning glaring, fury-filled eyes on Hie
man who hnd sneered lit the girl, he
continued, "You planted Hint d n lit
tle critter on me, mister. 1 never shot
him."
Polly op's lids widened In terror.
She lifted one hum! uud caught the
child's shoulder,
"Jerry, Imhy," she cried madly, "you
was there I Tell Pollyop what Duddy
shot !"
"Sure 1 wuh there," he sobbed,
drawing his sleeve across his face.
"'Twuh u big woodchuck settln' up by
his bole, nn' tny Duddy Hopkins "
The officer who had the squirrel In
his liund, put It Into Ids pocket mid
seized the child by the urm and shook
Mm.
"Here, kid," he shouted, "none of
your Hp. You've been set up to tell
that llo."
The mnn's aspect was so threaten
ing that Wee Jerry broke off his word
and, grasping Daddy's bushy lieud
tightly, smothered his sobs In his hulr.
Jeremiah Hopkins mudo u motion to
wurd the speaker, but n sharp twist
on the cliulu urouiid Ids wrist chucked
him.
"You nee, hrnl," I hi grouped, "they've
