IN AWARD CASE
State Supreme Court Holds
Reward I' or Taking Kill
ers Must Be Divided.
Closclr following the decision
handed down by Circuit Judgo T. K,
J. Duffy, I ho stato supreme court. In
nn opinion written by Justice Mc-
Court, hnn sustained tho rulltiR given
by Judge Duffy in tho suit brought
In Umatilla county tb determine the
distribution of the reward for the
capturo of players of Shorltt Til Tay
lor. Judfro Duffy's decision was
based on tho fact of concerted action
botween tho Lo, Orando and Umatilla
county posses, and between tho vari
ous members ot tho two posses. This
lie held, would hare-made unfair pre
mentation of tho entire reward to the
individual making- the actual capture,
since concerted action ot all had
made this capture possible.
Judge Duffy was also affirmed in
his decision on a case, which, al
though properly In equity, had been
decided by a Jury. The case, that of
Moses Taylor vs. Iley Winn, was held
by Judge Duffy to have been already
adjudicated, and the same view was
taken by tho supreme court.
BULLET FOUND
BY C. T. TERRIL
Leaden Pellet Believed One
Which Grazed Head of
Manuel Trillp.
Searclmic near the spot where
Manuel Trtllo claims he was stand
ing Wednesday when a bullet, which
he says was Bred by Joe Rodriguez,
grazed his head. Deputy Sheriff C. T.
Terril found the leaden pellet late
yesterday afternoon. The bullet was
near Trllio's hat, supposed to have
been knocked off by the shot, and was
only slightly battered. Trillo turned
as he felt the stiug of the bullet,
and says be saw Rodriguez fire twice
more.
None the worse for his experience
except for a Blight scalp wound and a
headache, Trillo has left for Port
land. It is doubted in the sheriff's
office if he will return to prosecute.
The scene of the affair, as estab
lished by the finding of the bullet,
was a bhort distance above the
Brooks-Scanlon mill, near the river.
Trillo had endeavored to collect a
board bill from Rodriguez, who had
persuaded him to walk south with
him on the mill railroad while he
secured the money, Trillo told the
authorities.

TRULY SEAT OF THE MIGHTY
.Woolsack In British House of Lord
Dates Back to the Reign of
j King Edward III.
In a plnce of honor In the Hrltlsh
house of lords Is a large red cuxlilon
tight in front of the throne. It Is
ubout live fret long and two feet i-quuri-at
the ends, and Is known as the
woolsack or historic seat of the lord
chancellor of the realm. This Is one
of the sacred Itrltlsh Institutions. Its
installation as a sent of honor for
the head of the judlclury department
of the government dales back tn the
time of Kdivnrd III, when wool was
the chief staple of Knglaud.
It wns not, however, until the time
of Henry VIII (hut the woolsack wns
'dignified and thoroughly established as
an Institution by the following enact
ment : "The lord chancellor, lord treas
urer and ull other nfliccrs who shall
be under the degree of n hurnn of a
parliament shall sit and he placed at
tho uppermost part of the sucks In the
midst of the parliament chamber,
either there to sit upon one form or
upon the uppermost sack."
Another curious circumstance Is the
fact that tho woolsack Is regarded us
extra-territorial so fur us tho house Is
concerned. Technically, It Is outside
the precincts of the house, so, If the
lord chancellor wishes to speak In de
bate he must leave the woolsack and
ndvunco to Ills place us u peer.

The hills came closer. Sim closer;
then, when It seemed that the train
must plunge straight Into them, they
drew uwuy again, as though through
some optical Illusion, nnd brooded In
the background, as the long, trans
continental train began to bang over
the frogs nnd switches as It made Its
entrance Into Denver. I'nlrchlld went
through the long chute and to n ticket
window.
"When can I get n train for Ohadl?"
The ticket seller smiled. "You can't
get one."
"Hut the map shows that n railroad
runs there "
"Ran there, you mean," chaffed the
clerk. "The best you can tin Is to
get to Forks Creek and walk the rest
of the way. That's a narrow-gauge

five-mile trudge up the broad, smooth,

stepped to one side, a grimy truck

passed :

"Trying to get to Ohadl." Fnlrclilld
shouted It above the roar or the en

"Thanks for the lift."
"Aw. forget It."
The truck wheeled from the main
rond nnd chugged nwny, leaving Fair
child afoot, making as much progress
ns possible toward his goal until good
fortune should bring a swifter mean
of locomotion. Suddenly he wheeled.
Hehlnd him sounded the swift droning
of a motor, cut-out open, ns It rushed
forward along the rond nnd the noise
told a story of speed.

appeared, seeming to bang In space

that he would be willing to help with
