ROGUE R, VALLEY Thomas Jefferson Reynolds, 60. freight clerk of the Montlcelll Steam ship company at Vallejo, Cal., died suddenly yesterday near Central Point while enronte with his family by auto mobile to his home from Washington, where they had been spending a vaca tion. Death was attributed to a cerebral I hemorrhage. It is said that Mr. Rey inolds hod suffered a severe attack of Indigestion the night before, but had apparently recovered from its effects I the next morning. When first at tacked by tho hemorrhage, he ex claimed, "Whup! Something's gone wrong. A moment later he was dead.

AT GORE RANCH The wheat crop on fhe 40 'acres-of the W. If. Core ranch, adjoining -the Jacksonville highway has been thresh ed, and ran 70 bushels to the acre, one of the best yields in the history of the Rogue- River, valley.. The. previous high mark was 65 buhels to the acre. Right In the middle of the rejoicing over the jjounteousness of nature, and the productivity of the soil, a pot monkey, belonging to Jay T..C,ore, su perintendent of the farm, broke loose .from hlB moorings, and wont over to W. E. (BUI) Brayton's place, causing a ripple of excitement to roll over that rural section. ,; Before the Simian waa recaptured, he created havoc. Among his depre dations at tho Brayton home were: ; Tearing a furrow of shingles , off the roof; - : i;..; Pruning and uprooting vinos pna? , the aide of the house; Thowfng a pnil of cooking np ples In the kitchen at tho birds;' Entering the snld kitchen with out the formality of opening tho , screen door: t '- ' Mistreating Bill's Sunday britches; . Rending asunder a nice looking hat belonging to Mrs. Brayton: Chasing the family cat under the barn, where puss remains in spite of no milk for two days. The Simian escaped when his cage door was opened to give him his lunch, and ilia master went after biin as soon as he was apprised of the getaway. Mr. . Brayton has a record crop of ' pears, but nothing that can do any thing to the Gore collection of Per sian rugs. ',... The .monkey Is believed to be the only one in the valley and is a mem: ber of the Reese genus. It was given Jay Gore by a friend living In Wyom ing, Is two years old and worth J50 as he stands. The creature kicked over the traces once before, but his bump of destruc- tiveness was not exercised then. After an absence of three weeks, and all hope for his return had vanished, he was sighted one afternoon perched on the ridge pole of the tool shed at the Gore place,- making faces at a hired . man. He was recaptured without the aid of peanuts. . As a result of the latest outbreak an ultimatum has - been Issued that the next time Mr. Monkey has a tant rum, back to Wyoming he goes.

Renewed indications Uuil Secretary Wttrks will retire us head of the War Department were followed today by preparations in severnl quar ters to lay-before President Coolidge the qualifications of various poten tial candidates Tor the vacancy. It Is likely that a great number of names will bo submitted lo the Pres ident hy senators and party leuderii. Mr. Coolidge la expected to look into the qualifications ufiall these avail ables and others, of his own choice be fore he makes his decision. The first question he will have to decide is whether to go outside his cabinet In naming his new secretary of war. Among the cabinet members ar,e two whose names, have been held In ,in ind In such tentative considera tion ns he has given to the matter. Secretary Work, as head successively of the post office and inferior depart ments, has made an administrative record of which Mr. Coolidge thinks highly and has some knowledge of army administration through his serv ice in the World War. Postmaster General New, a Spanish War veteran, and a former member of the Senate military committee, likewise is re garded by the chief executive as a man of demonstrated fitness for the war portfolio. It is emphasized, too, that neither the interior secretary nor tlie post master general, is seeking a transfer. Among those outside the present cabinet, Charles 1). 1 lilies, of New York, is conceded to rank high among the uvniluhlcs.-but one influential sec tion of the .Republican, leadership In Washington, will advise strongly thai the President look to the- West to supply the cabinet appointee. ; s : Western senators have a number of names they want to present. , The., a p pa re n t co n v Ic 1 1 o n of Mr. Weeks that he cannot return to his post is a source of much regret among many officials in Washington, but of genuine gratification among many of his personal friends. Some of his closest intimates here have strongly advised him not to undertake agliin the serious duties which during tho past four years have overtaxed his strength and gradually depleted his health.
