P'AOF, FTYT1 'VI For the hove of a Lady Wandering Reporter Writes From Land of Big Potatoes, Beans and Sage Brush; Finds Idahoans Think Medford on Ocean As An Actor Jack Dempsey Is Good Fighter, Says Herb Grey, Who Sees Mauler in Pantages Vaudeville Skit MfiDPORT) MATL TTUBTTNT, lT.PPOTi'D, f)RF.fiONT, S,TTTT?DAY, ,TTTT.Y ft, 1020. ni'RLEY. Ida.. July S. Th view of the Pacific ocean must be beautiful from -Medford. and Med ford must have a population rang ing from 30.000 to 40.000 people. In the opinion of some Idaho resi dents who have never visited south ern Oregon. A number of citizens of Hurley, located in the central poriion1 of ' southern Idaho, are deeply interested in Oregon and , especially in the description of Its 4 recreational features, b r 1 n g i n g fishing within a short distance and '; hunting only a little farther. ; "If we would like to go to the . mountains .here." said one Hurley man, ."we would have to drive 150 i miles, before .we. would find a good place to camp. You know the sage ; bruh,' which wo have tgr miles JLtround us, is not the particular Vt'I,e country we crave; We are Mip In the nir 4200 feet, and Inst I year we had IS or 20 inches of now for two months, at times blocking all ways nnd means of if travel. The thermometer went down below 20 degrees. That seems jf to he quite different to your sec i tinn with its mild winters, of which 1 have already been told." J Keeling in a loquacious mood. the , speaker continued: "We are j proud of our potato crops. Idaho ij has demonstrated it is u good state, i but it is hardly in n position to he i a strong competitor with other fp(l - producing districts of the tvuiniry. Our state has a small population and it is walled in j around the' edges by mountain; nnd' it -has n long -whys to go to I rear-h markets. v "Hut that has not stopped our .'. farmers from being isolated. We ':. grow wheat, hut not so much as other states, because wo have not bo many tillable acres, but we do giow more bushels to the acre than other states. We raise many, many bushels of potatoes, but our Idaho AorihardistH la! Vnpplex in 44 i last year sold their states and in some foreign countries, netting a return of approximately six and one-half millions of dollars. Idaho farmers also sent beans to markets of il Mat ex. "Most of all," he concluded, "our potatoes, about which there has been a certain amount of romance woven, have been sent by the car load into some of the best known potato growing states of the union. We expect better prices this year, because there are only 5800 acres planted around Hurley as compar ed to 6850 acres last year, but the bean acreage has been increased." Hurley is preparing for a big Fourth of July celebration and people are expected from all parts of Cass 'a county, with its popula tion of 10.000 or so. A carnival v CONSTRUCTION AT CRATER FOR YEAR LI CRATER LAKR, Ore., July 6. (.Special. ) According to Frank I Salter, in charge of "construction work at the luke this year, today will mark the finishing touches on the 'new barn built for the riding horses for the use of the tourists during-the senson. This barn is a splendid looking building and Is a credit to those constructing same, : as are all the other buildings. Work on the new cafeteria build ing will be completed by July 10th and the place would he ready for business by July 20th. Mr. and Mrs. Tom Pankey and jtvro daughters of Centrul Point visited the lake over the Fourth. Harry Gould and Mercia. Miksche of Medford were visitors at the lodge Thursday... They journeyed from Medford to Klamath Falls, to Crater Iake and on to Medford. 'Bhe visitor from the greatest distance on the evening of the FourLh. registered at the hotel was Mrs.' Adam Logan from Glasgow, Scotland. - Marian Boyd Allen, well known as a painter of landscapes and por traits, was a guest at the lake for several days this past week. From here she (eft for Rainier National park.- where sh will remain for three weeks painting. Miss Allen painted a very beautiful picture of Crater Lake while she was here. Mr. and Mrs. C. K. Gates and two nieces of Medford spent sev eral hours at the lake on July Fourth. Among others from Medford and vicinity visiting at the lake on the afternoon of the t Fourth wore Misses Dean Holt nnd Violet Alex ; non and John H. Henry and Ray Gillespie.

The roof caved in night before last and carpenters are working night and day to clear away the debris. Rup ert. Ida., not rar from Hurley, will alfco take an active part in the cele bration. ' En route to Hurley 'through east ern Oregon is North Powder, having- a. population '-of' i0 people. The village is In the center of a big whea growing country, and last year, according to the railroad agent there, produce sent out was contained in several thousand cars, entailing a freight bill of $200,000. Although It is not as large as Jack sonville, North Powder hus a thea ter, claimed to 'be the smallest In the state to have complete talking picture apparatus. It also boasts a growing newspaper. On the Columbia highway a stranger would receive n had im pression from reading a sign paint ed in letters many feet high on a barn roof. "It took 47 years to I build up this business, but it took uregon. witn its initiative law only one day to destroy it." Furthei investigation revealed the building to he part of a salmon cannery, against which some unfavorable legislation had been passed. . A visit to The Dalles revealed that some of its citizens still' tnVe sc much pride in their last year's foot ball team that they claim .Medford only won by lucky playing. How ever, those persons are in the mi nority. Farther down the highway and across the Columbia river can be seen Mary Hill Castle,, which figured so much in the news when ; Queen .Marie of Uoumanla chanced to vist the eastle and dedicate ,t j as an exhibition place (t liou- ! man inn art. i It is possibly a fitting place foi Roumanian art, as it would be im possible for many to view such ex hibition, isolated as the castle Is. Built high above the river by a railroad man of wealth so that his ailing wife might obtain a view of the sunset, from this point said to be a most Inspiring sight, the building is empty and its sightless windows stare weirdly at the trav elers on the other side of the river.

Chapter II T A FEMININE RUSE MEANWHILE Helen, standing before the largest mirror Id her bed-chamber, stared at the re flection of her lovellDess with troubled eyeB, vexed, surprised, wondering: '- "Could it Indeed be true? Pre posterous!" "But why must she remember the loose button on bis cuff: the sudden way be bad of lining his cbin and looking at ber as it about to ask some question that never came; tbe quick vitality of bis brown eyes; the small scar tbai made a dimple beside bis moutn; bis odd trick ot whistling softly between his teeth why?" My lady turned her back on the mirror, and, leaning fortb of the open lattice, gazed dreamily round about the pleasant countryside. And when she bad viewed tbls tempting prospect a while and sighed over It, she rang for ber maid. And after some while my lady descended tbe stair, the folds ol ber riding-habit over ber arm. and so to the stables, tbere to wait Im patiently what time old Ben and one of tbe grooms saddled The Witch, ber powerful, glossy-coated mare. Then, slim, booted foot In old Ben's band, up she sprang to the saddle, gathered the reins, set tled herself lightly. Tbe Witcb reared gracefully, and was out and away through the grassy paddock. ' But scarcely were they beyond the village than was a clatter ol pursuing hoofs, and my lady found Captain Oespard beside ber. Helen Crowned, tbe captain bowed. - "Helen . . ." said be gently. "Hel en, 1 love thee!" "And so 'tis 1 wish you good bye, sir!" . .. Captain Despard smiled. "And yet, Helen, I dare venture to think you will be my wife sooner or later." My lady merely glanced, at him and wheeled ber mare, but out shoi the captain's long arm and be grasped ber . rein, t b e n, d o w n whizzed my lady's riding-switch and Captain Despard. losing the rein, glanced from the red welt on his wrist to where my lady gal loped ber mare SO yards away. And tbe captain smiled still, but bis horse leapt In pursuit. But spur bow be would, my lady's fleet mare Increased her lead) until the cap tain was left far behind; and yet. Captain Despard. being the man he was, still smiled and still spurred In determined chase. ! Helen leapt her mare through the gap in ruined pork wall and can tered lightly over undulating green sward until she espied a man, busily engaged with a pair ol shears trimming a woerully shaggy hedge: but even at this distance she knew him, wherefore my lady checked ber steed and tossing off her plumed bat, she shook down her abundant hair and spurred the Witch a bar ply, which reared, plunged and set off In sudden, wild career. Thus Sir Richard heard a sudden cry, the muffled' thunder of gallop ing boots, and turning, beheld a vision wonderful: bronze-gold tres ses out-streaming on the sunny air, and all loveliness swaying to every graceful bound. Sir Klehard dropped his shears, and small wonder! . , . then again came that cry: . "Stop oh, stop her!" S'r Richard poised himself tor sudden and desperate actlou. . . Un came those swift, trampling hoofs nearer . . . nearer yet but now. seeing the perfect poise and bnl ance of ber lithe figure, despite her so agonized appeal, his eyes twin kled, his firm lips curved to sudden smile; then, he sprang and caught the bridle. , A sudden wrench ... the mare nnd was away riderless, for am lady lay swooning In Sir Richard's arms that Is to say, ber eyes were fast shut, and her sitpplo body lay very soft In his embrace ant' un tsually limp. Thus stood he goilng down Into the face pillowed on his shoulder, PAULSHOUPE OF S. P. LAKE VISITOR CRATF.lt LAKK. Ore..

So Sir Richard bowed bis nead and kissed her, and he did It with a singular deliberation; he. kissed her hair, one eye. and ber moutn and, flndlng her yet a-ewoon. he kissed her mouth, one eye, and ber hair and. .Indeed, was In tbe act ol doing thlB for the third lime when she looked at blin and frowned. She: Where am I? Sir, I be lieve you kissed me. Ha: I'm sure of It. She: Sir, 'twaa wholly detestuble act. Ho: Ma'm, 'twas the blissful aber ration or a happy moment. j She: And I a swoon!

D'ye take mo for one to be lightly kissed a thing so shameless, a creature so light? Set me down this very mo ment! ' ,. So, with the extremest of pre cautions, be set her feet 10 earth, bowed and b'ood back while she ordered her attire with deft, femi nine touches. '1 My lady frowned and began to put up her shimmering tresses, the while he watched her with profound Interest, whistling softly through his teetb. "What Is yonder, sir?" she asked, nodding towards the hedge he had been trimming. "Come and see If you will?" be answered, a little diffidently. "Your mare seems quiet enough, remark-' ably so." "Nay, 'tis deceitful creatine, pray secure her, sir, whiles 1 seek my hat." And so, the mare safe-hllchcny and her hat found atter uu gre:n search, since tny lady knew exactly where to look for It, Sir Richard brought ber Into what had once been a fair garden but now a place of weedy desolation. "Ob, a wilderness!" exclaimed Helen: "Wilderness Indeed!" he an swered. "And yet 'twas my moth er's garden once on u tluio." "Why then," said Helen softly, "surely It Is n very holy place. Then here. Sir Richard, here In this hallowed garden, 1 will con fess I did trick you." Sir Richard bowed. ' "And I tricked you because, since you are too Inflnlte proud to visit us, I became so Inllnite humble as to seek you thus. And, wherefore, do you suppose?" Sir Richard shook his head. "Because 1, Helen D'Arcy. hav ing misjudged one. Sir Itlchnrd Guyfford, would now very humbly cravo Sir Richard, Ills pardon. . . . Forgive tjie If you will." . And she reached out her band. So he clasped her hand, nnd thus stood all unwitting of other eyes that watched them so keenly fierce, and earB that honrkened so avidly. - So Sir Richard lirtetl her .hand, kissed It, and, letting it rail, stared hard at the shears again. "Madam," said be, a little un evenly, "I . . . am lutlnlte grateful." "And you forgive me? Then give tne some token for proof of our friendship."- "Willingly; what ivonldst have?" Bhe laughed. "There you shall give me your ring." " 'TlB battered thing!" he answer ed. "It was my father'!," . "Nay, then keep It." ' "No, no." be answered. Now seeing she would nut accept It, bo took her hand and tried the ring on each finger, but flndlng them all I too slender. "For the present It must lie there." nnd she dropped It Into her purse. "What will you have In exchange?" "The little cut's eye ring you're wearing." "1 will give you this!" said she, ond reaching to white neck, drew tlionce a small gold chain whereon was a locket. "I have worn It alnce I wus a child stoop your head, sir!" So he obeyed and she hung tho cross about bis sun-burnt throat. "Henceforth wo are friends pledged." t Copyright. ISM.

"Come," said she softly, "tell me of your mother." . Thus, Inspired by her unwonted gentleness, sympathy and under standing, he forgot his taciturnity and told her ot the mother who was to him only a revered dream and, led on by her subtle questioning, described his early years: himself a lonely child In tho ungoverned household of his careless, widowed uncle, Julian's father. He told of his Impish childhood and wayward youth and the follies of his early, reckless manhood. 'Faith, 1 babble, I chattier, I prate 0' myself." ".Nay, Richard, thou art talking to tby friend, here lu thy mother's garden." ' "Garden? "Tie a desolation!" he sighed. "And yet, for her sake, I would have It bloom again, and by my own labour It It might be." "And why should It not be?" " 'Twill take time , . . there Is much to do!" he answered eva sively. "Well, and why should you not do It?" she persisted. "What shall hinder, what shall stay your la hours In this garden? Is It ... I know you are to fight a duel, Rich ard. Surely duels seldom end fatally." "Heaven bless you," he answered, seeing the trouble in ber eyes, "such accidents pre extreme rare, so 1. pray let your apprclieusiotis sleep!" And then, almost ere she knew, he hud caught her hand 10 bis Hps. "Richard," said she, "I am won dering why a just Providence doth not smite such ns your cousin Julian dead! Oh, the man's a mon ster, a fiend, a murderous devil, a hateful, despicable wretch, nn odi ous reptile, a very rogue Ingrain" "Zounds!" exclaimed Sir Rich ard, "Now prithee stay and take a breath." "Oh, mock as you will!" said my lady angrily! "lint he Is a danger ous villain, a creature better dead!" "And, Helen, I wonder It you are blood-thlrstyas you sound?" "I repent, such a man were bet ter dead!" she retorted; and then, clenching passionate hands, uttered words which though he little heeded at the time, he was to think upon very often lu the future: "And, -Richard, I vow to you, should be ever give me cause, I would shoot him and joy to do It!" "No, no!" said he, shaking re proving head at her fierce loveli ness. ' "Yes, yes!" cried she. "D' you doubt me?" "May," he answered gently. "I nnly doubt your capacity for mur der." , "'TIs odious word!" said she frowning, "Murder? Ay, true!" he nodded; "More especially on a woman'! lips." "Nay, Richard, but Mr. Trumplng- ton's dismal forebodings aro shared by many they do tell me even by you yourself, Richard that you ha' put all your worldly affairs In order that you are prepnred and quite resigned to meot your death. . . . to being killed at the end ot the month!" "Sure, Helen, you know 'tis only usual to. make some Bitch prepara tions before a meeting." "Nay, Richard, here Is the reason you doubt if you will live long enough to see your mother's garden bloom again. You expect to die Is It not so?"

So then will I relieve you of these hateful embarrassments thus!" So Haying, she leaned from the sudd I e nnd, with swift, psnion ate gesture, wrenched (he little locket from his neck.

My lady drew the ring isom her purse, held It above his expectant palm and dropped It into her purse again. "Sir,' said she, looking down at him with the utmost disdain, "as I took buck my cross, do you take your ring if you can!" And then, with trampling of sudden, eager hoofs, was off and away. Sir Richard watched until mare and rider were out of slglit, then turned and hurried towards Gregory In tho kitchen garden. "Greg," said he, "go saddle me the buy." Now my lady, reaching the high way, reined her mare to a canter, to a walk und often glanced buck as It expecting pursuit; thus eve ning had come as she reached a place where the road narrowed. "Halt, ma'm!" cried a voice, vaguely familiar, and a masked man swung his horso ocror- her path and she caught the dull gleam of a pistol barrel; also, she saw this grim figure was shrouded In an old, military cloak turned up and faced 1 with scarlet. I "How then, air," said she In lofty disduln. "You will play highway man because I once so named you? ' 'TIs the ring you want of me, 1 1 think?" The man bowed; nnd then she heunl him whistling softly between . his teeth. "Why then, sir, take It! Th next time we meet, he so obliging j to pass by at a distance!" j Drawing forth her purse she ; hurled It to the dusty road so fiercely that her loose gauntlet dew with It: 1 "There take It sir!" said she, In choking voice.
