LOOKS AS IF JOKE
WAS ON "SLATS"
Laughed At Merrill OaViala and Is
Now In the County Jail Await
lag Cuswsaarattsayaf Caaw.By the
Grand Jury.
I
Thos. Brtckoll,. who la better
known as "Slats," was today com
mltted- to the caftody of the aherlff
on a ctsrgo of attempted arson at
Merrill. Brickell was brought up
(rom Merrill by Marshal F. M. Dur
ham. It Is said he waa arrested at
Merrill (or fighting, and, (ailing to
pay bis Ono, waa put to work on
tbo streets, but ho refuied to work.
Ho was then put In Jail, which he
a'ttompted to burn.
Drlckcll evidently thought .he
know more than the Merrill officers
and be only laughed st them and
caused them as much trouble as he
could. The officers tried to Bad
some plan of getting rid of him, and
finally brought tn a charge ot at
tempted arson ot 'a building, and
committed him to the custody ot the
sheriff, to await the action of the
Ora'nd'Jury.' It Is not as much ot
a Joke to "Slats" now, as he has
been placed' In the county Jatl and
will bo handled by the state officers.
Drlckoll was elected constable la
ihls'preclnct at tho last election, but
failed to quuallfy, as be was unaoie
to furnish bonds.

I'aasaal Demand Daring Winter Has
Nearly Exhausted (he Supply la
the Yards of City Bboruge of
Vpper Grades of Lumber.
, The stock of lumber In the yards,
of tho saw mills In Klamath Falls is
becoming very low. There tas been
more than Iho usual salo 'of lumber
during the past winter. One mill
man states that bis company sold
more lumber during the winter than
tboy did all of last summer. 'Tho
milts are now mnklug preparations
to begin sawing (or the summer.
Ackley Drot. have only about a
1 alf a million feet of rough lumber
on L'and, and moil of this Is box
lumber and will be ro-uwed (or box
material. They will start lawing-on
Monday and expect to run steady
all summer. They lavo a million
and a hair (cct of logs In tho water
to begin sav.lng on. Dy uilng their
kiln they will tare dry lumber with
in ten days after beginning sawing.
Moore Droi.' big stock bas been
reduced to not over a bait million
feet. This Is good dry lumber, but
all common grades. They aro prac
tically cleaned odt ot uppers. They
state that last fall they expected to
have enough lumber to run them
late la the aummcr, but that the de
mand during tbo winter was far
heavier than they anticipated. Tho
Moore mill will begin sawing about
the first of May.
Tho Long Lake Company haa
about 400,000 feet on hand.. Most
of this Is in the woods near the lo
cation of the old milt, but .teams
will begin hauling It to the city
right away". Nearly balfc ot this
stock U of the better grades sellable
for finish. They stato that "they
bare been able to fill alt orders -so
far, and expect their stock to last
until the new lumber Is dry and
ready for market." The Long Lake
mill will start up on Monday. Nearly
all ot their cut lumber will be used
for boxes, so that they will have a
good stock ot upper grades to dls-'
poso ot In tho local ma-kef.
