REV. WORLEY DIES
AT ELBERTON HOME
Baker City, Ore., Oct. l.—An attempt
was made last night to assassinate for
mer Sheriff Harvey H. Brown at his
home In this city by blowing him up
with dynamite. He Is In a critical con
dition at one of the hospitals. One of
his legs was blown off, one of his arms
badly mutilated and internal injuries
were caused by the explosion.
The assaaslns left no trace except a
wire which extended about twenty-five
feet along the fence and then went
west about thirty feet to the middle of
the road.
It is thought that Mr. Brown had
some idea of the identity of the men
who perpetrated the outrage, for he
was heard to mutter Just before laps
ing into unconsciousness:
“They have laid for me and they got
me.”
Mr. Brown became unconscious
few moments later and said nothing
that would give any clew to the Identi
ty of the assassins.
Mrs. Brown Is prostrated by the
shock and the physicians fear she will
not recover. Mr. Brown while sheriff
of Baker county was diligent In en
forcing the law against saloon men and
gamblers.

A letter outlining title conference and
giving suggestions regarding changes In
the present methods of dealing has
been written by State Business Agent
J. O. Eubanks and Is as follows:
"Regarding our chances to sell cotton
to the spinners of Europe, wish to sr.v
that the spinners are on their way to
America now and expect to have a con
ference with the union on the 7th of
next month. The merchants of Europe
are also trying to carry a deal with the
Farmers’ Union. They have a repre

are as follows: 64 cents from Atlanta to
New York: compress charges, 10 cents;

longest Interior freight at England Is 31

cents per hundred pounds. At the
longest distance the entire freight
charges. Including compression, are
16.10. The tare to a 600-pound bale of
cotton Is 13.00. This makes the entire
expense of delivery. Including tare.
89.10. This amount, deducted from 175.
the market value of a 600-pound bale
of middling cotton, would leave net to
the producer 365.90 f. o. b. cars In Geor

The Hagenbeck-Wallace circus at
the evening performance Monday night
was an absolute farce. .
Sweltering humanity was Jammed
Into the tent until there was not stand.
Ing room, to say nothing of room to sit
In, and still the management took the
people's hard cash and they wero
crowding In long before the performance
began. People who had paid extra
prices to secure reserve seats hod no
more chance of seeing the mediocre
performance than a crippled graeshop.
per In a turkey pen.
The epace usually used by the char
ioteers In the final races was literally
packed. The police wero urged on by
diamond studded attendants to make
the people sit down. They were laugh
ed at. The ground, thinly clad with
straw, was soggy and damp and held
many possibilities of bad colds.
And the negroea! A seething mas#
of Ethiopians was hemmed In one end
of the "hippodrome." A fly cop, goad
ed by one of the management, waded
into thnt sea of surging blackness, and
wielding his club like a cavalryman at
a tournament, rut a path through,
leaving unprotesting broken and bloody
heads In his wake.' He tried to make
them su down. Many left before the
performance was half begun.
The combination of a splendid train
ed animal show with a modern circus
looks like a good thing on paper. Ha
genbeck'* collection of trained animals
has been recognized us the king-bee
of them nil for years und years, and
Wallace had a clean, clear-cut circus.
Nevertheless, the combination does
not work as It should. Somehow they
have not been made to fit in. The
trained animals are the real body and
backbone of the performance. Tigers
and lions and leopards performing dar
ing and novel equestrian acts. Jumping
through blazing hoops while riding
bareback; beam simulating drunken
ness, cake-walking and wrestling with
men; seals proficient In the art of Jug
gling; performing zebras and zebru-
las; these and similar feats calculated
to make man look to his laurels, make
the show really great and worth while.
Bv next season the combination
should have the rough edges polished
and Hagenbeck and Wallace will be
pushing somebody for first place In the
circus world.
In the meanwhile the young folks,
and the old folks, who are always
young enough to enjoy a circus, owe
a debt of gratitude to Hagenbeck and
Wallace for Introducing an innovation
In the circus world—the first of any
importance In many, many years.
