of per acre, - under the provisions
of the law," one-fifth of the purchase
price being paid at the time -the bal
ance to be paid In Installments, but
that said Fleming has failed for more

therefore,! according1 to law, rendered
void.. Plaintiff alleges that, on May 27,
1902, tie made due application for the
purchase of. said land but his applica
tion was I refused. The Court ordered
that an alternative writ ofunandamu
be issued to the said V Land Board
commanding it to accept the filing of
Plaintiff's application' and to issue the
proper certificate of purchase,, or to

VALUABLE MARE STOLEN
t-;
HORSETHIEYES MAKE AWAY
WITH A MARION COUNTY r
: FARM ER'S ANIMAL. -
L Raumgartner. who resides near
the Fair Grounds, had the misfortune
to lose one of his horses, a, valuable
animal. "frm -his pasture yesterday
morning and he has every reason to
belleve that the animal 'Wa stolen. '
For some time past Mr. Battmgartner
has ; been In the habit of turning his
team, -4, bay mare, and a sorrel' horse.
Into the pasture and would leave! It
over night. Thursday nigh he turn
ed ,the horses Into the pasture but,
yesterday morning when he went out
to care for them he found that tney
were gone, although the gate ,- was
closed. ? He found the horse-! not . jf ar
from the place, but the mare, an Alta
mont, could not be found.
Upon making a more thorough ex
amination, however, he discovered th
lost animal's footprints in ; the road
and tracked her for a long distance
on the Portland rood, ; far enough to
satisfy himself that the mare had been
stolen and he returned to Salem Im
mediately and notified i Sheriff Durbla
of the facts In the case and a diligent
search was at once instituted to re
cover the horjse and capture the thief.
Later, Mr. 1 Baumgartner found a
saddle just over the fence along the
road where It had evidently been
thrown in haste and he reasons that,
as the sorrel horse was very hard to
catch, especially by a stranger, the
thief had given up the chase and had
abandoned $ the saddle in his flight.
He also found evidence -to show that
the thieves bad used oats as i. bait to
catch the horse r

FRAG M.J5NTS OF FAMILIES.
Have yo .ieyvr' thought how-difficult
it was "to find an unbroken . family?
Most of us are fragments of families
here' and jthere struggling as best we
may. We think of father; and mother
and relatives . now scattered like the
mists of the morning.' There ia some
thing in this that makes lis forget each
other's welfare when we become sep
arated. - How often do we write to a
brother or sister? We dare say If you
sit down to count the days it has -been
months and perhaps years. Once and
a while a- letter jpasses telling of the
old love, and asking to be forgiven for
not writing sooner and then a long sil
ence. . A telegram Js-handed to you y
your fingers tremble as you tear open
the envelope; you read, mother. or sis
ter died on such a day. You go away
by yourself and shed a few tears and
regret a thousand times your . negli
gence to the dear one. It is now to4i
la, to-" to do bettr to that mother or
sister in the days to c6me. This great.
broad world gets too far apart. The
duties of life so thoroughly absorb our
time that we forget things that should
b0 remembered.

: AN ACTIVE .VOLCANO -
MOUNT BLACKBURN IN ALASKA
IS SPOUTING DUST ROCKS
AND
SEATTLE; June 2 A special to the
Times from .Ska gway. under date of
May - 28,.' says: Accounts of a most
thrilling nature regarding the volcanic
action of a supposed harmless moun
tain In Alaska were brought to this
city by J. C: McFartand this- forenoon.
Seven weeks ago a slight earthquake
shock was felt in all parts of Alaska,
and .until today the phenomena, re
mained unexplained. . Mr.. McFartand.
who I- a geologist of no small note,
happened to be within a few miles of
the cause of this earthquake shock.
The story Is best told in Mr. McFar
land's language: v
-On April 11, about 7:30 o'clock in
the morning. X was just packing my
cooking utensils, when the air about
me suddenly became oppressed With a
distinct and uncommon silence.-In my
wanderings through different wilds. I
had become used to any strange freaks
of nature, but this one appailed me. I
was. In a rough, mountainous country.
I should judge about 10 mile from the
base J of Mount Blackburn. In South
eastern Alaska, riot far from the start
ing point of the glacier, which, as it
rears its face on " the North Pacific
Ocean is called 'Mulr Glacier.
"As this silence gained on my senses
the bright, sunny morning seemed to
darken. Something unusual was; go
ing to happen, but I knew, not what.
All of a sudden the earth beneath my
feet shook, a low, mournful, rumbling
sound accompanied this quaking of the
earth. Almost with instinct, I glanc
ed up at Mount Blackburn. Of a sud
den, it seemed as if the peak had open
ed and the points hurst out as if soma
mighty demon , were forcing its way
upward. Then a cloud of ashes and
smoke shot Into the air several hun
dred feet, and then there seemed to
flow from the opening in the -top a
stream, of dirty stuff,' mixed with large
and small boulders, i This only con
tinued for about 10 minutes, and then
ceased as suddenly as .lt had.-It -gun.
The air cleared and nature seemed
again to wear hor cheery smile.
"It-was three days, after many per
ilous attempts, before I succeeded in
reaching the base of the mountain.
Then I discovered that the country "for
mile around had been very much af
fected. The small - , undergrowth of
trees had been entirely, covered up.
This stuff which poured from -the top
of the mountain was not even warm,
but seemed to consist solely of dust,
rocks and earthy substances. I only
stayed In the spot a couple .of . hours:
then left for the coast. ' As near as I
an find out this mountain had never
been considered- of a volcanic nature.

which he tried to "secure money from

PRODUCTIVE.
LA GRANDE. Or.. June June 2 .The
problem ef how the Sand Ridge may be
watered seems fairly jsolved for the
larger part of it in the succses of the
artesian well on the Harry Ruhl place..
The central part of Grand Ronde Val
ley is high .and sand y, arid not all
crops do well. On the Ruhl farm, near
Alicei; a well has been sunk TtA ft
and sufficient water obtained for stock
and domestic pu'rposesL It is believed
that greater depth wilt give a flow suf
ficient to irrigate the farm.
George Buckman and son have put
In two 20 -horse engines and pumps on
their beet farms on the river below
Alice!, and wljl pumpj water from the
river over the beet fields. Water1" has
been all that was wanted to make the
Sand Ridge the best fcetgrbwing sec
