JUDGE SCORES
GUN CARRYING;
PENALTYHEAVY
"More violent deaths come as the
result of carrying concealed weapons
than from any other cause. The
time for such extraordinary measures
of protection Is past. Action of the
kind Is a constant temptation to a
man to take the law Into his own
hands. I consider the offense a very
serious one indeed."
Such was the summing up of the
case of Owen Thompson, given by
Circuit Judge T. E. J. Duffy Thursday
morning before passing a sentence
which went the limit as far as a fine
is concerned, and which imposed halt
the Jail term which can be given un
der the statute. Thompson, who was
Indicted, and who pleaded guilty
after drawing n revolver on Walter
Danmeler, must pay $200 and must
serve SO days in the county Jail.
Protected Money, Excuse
Thompson beard the sentence
without a change of expression, and
turned to Join the sheriff, who es
corted him from tho court roam.
The defendant, previous to the pro
nouncement of Judgment, had offered
as an excuse the statement that he
carried the revolver only to protect
his money which he carried home at
night from his shop, and on his re'
turn In the morning. Had he gone
direct to his shop instead of stopping
at the O'Nell & Johnson cigar store
Sunday morning, the trouble never
would have occurred, he said. Judge
Duffy declared the excuse utterly in
adequate.
Tho Jury In the case of C. R. Gar
trell vs. the Bend Garage, a suit to
recover 1 1,200 damages for a car
burned in a recent garage fire, re
turned a verdict for the defendant.
R. S. Hamilton represented the ga
rage, W. P. Myers appearing for the
plitntiff.

BEND PROGRESS
COMMENTED ON
BY HOTEL MAN
P. R. Brooks Pleased With
Development Made
NEW WING IS HINTED
Contraction to Doulilo Capacity of
Inn as Soon at Conditions En
tirely Auspicious Manage
ment Wins Urnlso
Highly pleased with the develop'
ment which Bend Is making and with
the assured future of the city in gen
eral and of the hotel business In par
ticular, P. R. Brooks of Vancouver,
B. C, owner of the Pilot Butte Inn,
stated Thursday morning that as
soon as conditions are entirely auspi
cious and the need absolute, he will
begin construction of another wing.
He was unable to state during his
visit here Just when such construc
tion would begin. An additional
wing, such as was suggested to the
Commercial! club by Brooks in the
course of a visit here several years
ago, would virtually double the ca
pacity of tha Inn with practically no
additional overhead cost on, such
ltsms as beating, dining room, and
living room service.
Both from an Inspection of his
property and from reports which
have come to him from travelers and
other hotel men, Brooks Is more than
satisfied with the management of the
Inn under R. M. Wood. "A hotel
manager In Portland told me that
Mr. Wood is the ltvest man In the
business in Oregon outside of Port
land," he mentioned, "and I'm rath
er Inclined to believe him."
To Beautify Property
Daring his visit' In Bend, he made
one suggestion as to beautlflcatlon of
the property, which will be carried
out at once. The tennis court at the
north side of the present building is
to be dismantled, the cinders re
moved, and the ground turned Into
a lawn. In case of additional con
struction, this would be the probable
site of the new wing.
INDIAN TIMBER
WILL GO SOON
January 17 Sale Date Per
manent Milling Indus
try Hope
Sale of more than halt a billion
feet of timber in the Metollus timber
unit on the Warm Springs Indian res
ervation will be made by the depart
ment of the interior on January 17
of next year. Advertising has already
been started by tho department.
The unit Includes somo 84,000
acres of timber with a stand of ap
proximately 520,000,000 feet of yel
low and sugar pine, Douglas fir and
incenso cedar, of which approximate
ly 90 per cent Is yellow pine. An
excellent mill site may bo had on the
Deschutes river, where electrical
power may be developed tor sawmills
and logging railroads. Two railroads
parallel tho river which will afford
ample transportation for tho manu
factured product to Portland and
eastern markets.
The Warm Springs Indian reserva
tion contains ono of the largest com
pact bodies of yellow pine timber In
the west, estimated at 3,000,000,000
feet, sales of which will bo made
from time to time. The Indian for
est service Is now cruising the timber
lands and preparing a topographic
map of the entire area. There is
seen a great opportunity for tho per
manent location of a largo baud mill.
Besides tho Indian timber there nro
large tracts of private timber hold
ings which may bo purchased.
