Hot Springs.

Says That Most Needed Com
modity There Is a Store and
Boarding House.
Brightcubuah Hot Springs, June 18.
We left Albany at 8:45 Friday U,
and arrived at Detroit at noon. At
tiie latter place a good meal was serv
ed at the hotel. Horses are alwayj
ready to take those who desire into
tiie Hot Springs, the popular resort. I
We did not get started from Detroit J
for two hours but arived at the springs'
at 7 the same evening after leaving
Albany. The recent rain made t the
trail unpleasant in several places, re
tarding travel somewhat. Many trees
had fallen across the trail but all had
been removed by the packers. In
pleasant weather it is not difficult to
reach the springs in three and a half
hours from Detroit.
On arrival we found about thirty
people here from all points of the
compass. When weather conditions
are favorable many others are billed
to come. At this 'time representatives
arc here from the state of Washing
ton, many counties in Oregon, and
three from Canada. The backward
season has retarded travel to all moun
tain resorts, and to these famous
pprintys in the convenience of getting
in over a trail with horses when
shower is encountered as was unfor
tunately met with, makes the trip
anything but enviable. Tt seems like
civilization when we get the Oregon-
tan and Democrat delivered at our
cabin door one dav after they are
til-pi from the nre. An every day
delivery with an improvised postoffice
and camn elected official to handle
mail, without consul tine Uncle Sam
for consent or petitioning our con
gressional representatives for politi
cal pulls to get the choice of the camp
the coveted job.
Mr. F. H. Brundage, the accommo
dating head of the forest reserve force
in this district called on us today and
during his friendly vUit informed us
that the government telephone tin?
now being constructed, will connect
Detroit, the end of the railroad, and
the springs, by the end nf thl- week.

SHE WAS CONVICTED ON
CHARGE OF WHITE SLAVERY
Husband Charges That Wife
Deserted Him Because He
Was a Farmer,
Charging that his wife deserted him
after becoming dissatisfied with the
simple life of a farmer's wife, and that
she is now confined in the state pen
itentiary upon being convicted some
time ago on a white slavery charge,
Riley Rucker, a fanner residing near

ation from Dora Rucker, his alleged
wayward spouse.
The couple were married in Linn

complaint they lived peacefully as hus
band and wife on a farm near Leb
anon for several months, when the
wife without cause or provocation de
serted her husband after becoming ah
he alleges dissatisfied with farm life.
Since that time, the piaintm allege
that his wife has roamed over a big
portion of the state, making her home
here and there, rinallv she located
permanently at The Dalles, where she
became involved m the crime known
as white slavery. There she was in
dicted on the charge, convicted and
sent to the penitentiary for a term
of from 1 to 10 years for participating
in the white slavery traffic.
The plaintiff alleges that he has re
peatedly endeavored to persuade her
to return to him but she would not
heed his pleadings. In the complaint
he asserts that at all times when she
lived with his he provided a good
home and a living for her.
There is no issue of the marriage
between the plaintiff and defendant.
Mrs. Rucker formerly resided in this
city where she was employed as a
domestic. Attorney Samuel Garland
represents the plaintiff.

struction of four miles of new road
through a level country Eugene may
be put in touch in a business way
with the fertile -Loraine valley, 15
miles southwest of here, and the trade

rounding country diverted to this city
from Cottage Grove and Creswell.

from Loraine than Creswell is and
four miles closer than Cottage Grove
is to Loraine, with the advantage of
no steep lulls, which characterize the
roads to the other towns.

SECOND INDICTMENT
TRIAL IS UP TODAY
Next Case to Come Up Before
Judge Kelly Is State Against
Al Newman.
Reaching a verdict on the first bal
lot within 15 minutes after it retired,
the jury in the case of tbe state against
James Hart and J. D. Kennedy, charged
with violation of the local option law,
found the defendants guilty of the
charge.
After occupying the entire day in
its trial before Circuit Court Judge
Kelly yesterday the case went to the
jury late yesterday afternoon at 6
o'clock and the verdict was read in
court at 6:20 o'clock. Judge Kelly
;innotinccd that he would pronounce
sentence on t lie convicted bootleggers
next Monday morning at 9 o'clock.

art and Kennedy were tried yester
day on one of the two indictments re
turned against them by the irrand
jury, charging them jointly with the
sale ol intoxicating liquor m violation
of the' provisions of the' local option
liquor taw. in tiie indictment they
were charged with selling the intoxi
cants to VV. M. McDcrmott on June 7.
1 he case was hitler v contested and
the defense made desperate efforts to
secure a verdict in favor of the defen
dants. Kotwiihsianding Hie fact that
an alibi to the effect that the defend
ans were not in the city on the date
of the alleged sale, was entered into
the testimony anil by the fact that
one of Ihe slate's witnesses tried to
thow down Ins testimony and iinon
close (liestioliiug by the proseculiltg
attorneys, hedged his testimony con
siderably, the stale won a sweeping
victory in the trial. District Attorney
Gale S. Hill and Deputy Dan Jahustoii
appeared in behalf of the stale and
Attorneys I). A. Drown, of Salem and
J. J. Whitney, of Albany represented
the defendants.
