Canyonville Man
Surrenders to Officers
(Roseburg Review)
That only one shot wan fired, and
that from a distance, and that no one
knows whether or not. the bullet was
sent in the direction of his accuser,
were the admissions of all parties to
the Orchard Valley shooting affair,
this morning when (). A. Jones, offer
ing himself up to the officers, waived
a preliminary examination in tho local
justice court and offered to face the
charge against him of attack upon Ed
ward Privett with a dangerous wcaiHin
last Thursday.
Nervous and weak from his three
days as a fugitive, Jones came to
town early this morning and placed
himself in the hands of the officials.
He will face trial willinglv and not
only give his account of the shooting j
inn win iiiicmpi io jusiiiy ins uci oy
bringing out the attentions which for
some time, he declares, Privett hnsi
made toward his wife. It is his declar
ation that Privett has been more than
friendly for many mouths nnd that
while the latter never visited at the
Jones home in tho owner's presence, he
was often there when Mr. Junes was
absent. Mr. Jones is of the belief that
Privett will not appear to force the
charge against him, but says he is will
ing that he should in order that he may
show the. other side of the storv.
Jones offered no statement while be-1
fore the justice court today, but de
noted his willingness to confront the
grand jury should the ense be called.
Ilis bonds were fixed at )Ml). which
were iinmeiliatelv furnished, It. ( ,.
Darby, of this city, nnd Milton Dubell,
his neighbor, being bondsmen. Ho was
allowed to return to his home this
afternoon.
Jones was accompanied here by Mr.
Dubell and Kd Darby, who was linn
tunned by Jones' neighbors from A urns
ville, near Snlcin. They tallied with
Jones yesterday and . with Sheriff
Uuine, who uncut the day in their
neighborhood in an effort to persuade
them to find Jones and bring him out
of hiding. They later decided this was
best and they brought Jones here in an
automobile this morning.
Then You Won't Forget
To Post Wifeys Letters
For those who know certain things
but cannot just remember when called
on for information, the meeting at the
Commercial dub next Wednesday
evening will be of special interest.
David M. lioth, the memory expert,
will be there und talk on memory de
velopment. He will demonstrate how
it is possiblo with a trained memory!
to remember luc,e, numbers, statistical
ami everything else tho average man
tries to remember and generally for
gets. He has taught more than 2,000 in
the northwest and in Seattle num
bered ninong his pupils the chief of
police nnd tunny policemen.
In Portland, his work was with the
ineinbers of the Rotary club, and
ninong the business and professional
men of the city. Classes were also
organized in aeverul of the large de
partment stores with tho clerks, teach
ing them how to remember names nnd
faces.
It will not cost anything to honr the
talk of Mr. Roth Monday evening and
his advance man, II. Jucohsnn, promises
that the memory demonstrations will
be exceedingly interesting.

expressed his gratitude for the penalty

cesst'ul session marking the close of a

The statistical report, which was pre
sented today, shows an actual net unin
for the year of over 200 members. Not
only is the work prospering in the fields
that have been lone; occupied, but new
fields have been opened, nnd several
new meetinirs established.
lli two departments that occupied
the attention of the yearly meeting to-
day were, the department of Home Mis
I sinus, 'ilh an address by Charles O.
Whitely, of Newber);, following the
annual report, and systematic and pro
poiti unite giving, with nn address by
Mrs. Josephine llockctt, of Snleni.
Tuesday afternoon was devoted to
the work of the Foreign Mission de
partment, with C. J. Sherman, of 1'ort
land, presiding. After the reports of
tho jenr's work, a stirring address was
given by Chester A. llndlev, of Rose

Reputation of the
"W
HAT is the bore
owner not long ago.
"I don't know," he replied simply, "I don't buy cars on figures any
more. I buy them on what they 've done."
For this man, and for many others like him, it was enough that during
the thirteen strenuous years the Maxwell record for performance, reliability
and economy had swept it to the front
Figures engine speed figures, horse-power figures, wheel-base
figures they meant nothing to him. The name "Maxwell" carried more
weight than all the technical description that could be offered.
Maxwell cars have achieved this great good will and this priceless
position with the public only by their unequalled record of things done.
What is said of an automobile in its specifications is one matter. What the
car actually does in the hands of owners, year after year, is another matter.
The Maxwell car has won its position through sheer merit. It has set
record after record in competition with cars of all prices and classes.
Everything considered, the Maxwell is the safe investment. It is a
known, tried and proved product. It will serve you as it is serving and has
served countless others.
Let us arrange for a demonstration today. You will be under no
obligation. We want to give you a chance to convince yourself, vffifffifcftj
