JUDGE BROWN GETS PUZZLING LETTER G. B. Brown, local justice of the peace, is wondering what it's all about, and why someone picked on him, a lady too, evidently, who wants him to effect her rescue from her captors. She signs herself simply, "Yours, E," and the Judge affirms that he doesn't have the least idea who "She" is, nor how she expects him to know her. The card was mailed at Orange, and reads as follows: "Dear Sir:— The former Mrs. W. R. Hill knows she is not Jane Doe Hill. I am held here and want you to call up Mr. N. B. Harris and ask him if he will help me out of here? Harry and Heffner are holding me with Z. B. West's and C. Cook's help. Didn't Heffner shoot N. B. Harris in Presno? If he did, get D. S. Marion Ybarra to take me away from Harry's poor farm today. There are about 130 here now. Yours, 'E.' N. B. Please write to G. Washburn Smith." Someone who can explain this card will do Judge Brown a great favor, he says.

ASK JURY PROBE LIONS PLACE MARKER AT · LINCOLN GRAVES JANESVILLE, Ill., Oct. 3.—Two unkempt graves in a desolate grave yard near here are soon to be given attention, after years of neglect by a forgetful public. These mounds are the last resting places of Thomas and Nancy Lincoln, father and stepmother of Abraham Lincoln. Tourists and sightseers pause long enough to chip a souvenir from the rough stone which serves as the only marker at the graves of the father and stepmother of the immortal president. No monument adorns the lot upon which the little mounds have been thrown up above the bodies of these two historic characters. A rough stone, probably picked up from the road, has been placed at the foot of one of the graves and a similar marker at the head of the other. The Illinois district of Lions International, under the direction of Hon. Wayne C. Townley, district governor, have pledged themselves to the task of erecting a suitable and fitting monument to the memory of Lincoln's parents. Under the plan each club pledges one dollar for each member. Of the 50 clubs in Illinois almost half of them already have mailed checks for their share in the undertaking. Some aid outside the organization has been given also, although no appeal is being made to outsiders. SUITS TO COLLECT FOR PAVING Breaking all records in number of papers in connection with the case, approximately 100 complaints have been filed in superior court by Steddom & Blanche for foreclosure on street assessment liens on property at Newport Beach, following the completion of the big paving program there.

The defendant property owners, most of whom own only a single lot each, are merely denominated "John Doe One," "Two" etc. The amounts Boys Fall and Winter and Furnishings SUITS and OVERCOATS Your Clothes must be styled correctly and made properly to give you the utmost service.

Alpha Beta Cal Anniversary $1.00 SALE FRIDAY SALT INDUSTRY IN FADE OUT NOW SYRACUSE, Oct. 1.—One of world-famous, the salt industry of Onondaga is destined soon to pass into oblivion, a martyr to progress and economics—the result of cheaper production. A lone reminder of the great industry, once counted in the millions of dollars, is the last stack on the towpath on the Oswego canal, near Liverpool. Once acres upon acres of the famous salt land bordering the city on the north were dotted with these monuments, where the brine was boiled and salt extracted. This last stack, after serving more than half a century, is soon to be torn down, leaving only the rotting timbers of salt sheds and perhaps the remnants of the last boiling station at Gainsville, which is soon to follow the removal of the stacks. Cheaper methods of making salt, discovery of extensive salt mines where production costs are but a fraction of the cost of the system followed for nearly a century, caused the doom of the great industry and the passing of the salt pioneers who made Onondaga a beehive of activity in a wilderness of thousands of square miles.
