i THE MOKXING OREGOXIAX, MONDAY, NOVE3IBER 5, 1906. 13 BURGLAR IS 'SE Cries "Don't Shoot; I'll Come Down," When Citizen Draws a Bead. IS TREED ON HOUSETOP It. I'. Prael Fires Shot at Marauder, Who Promptly Asks Tor Quarter. Police and 1'ire Depart ment Called Out. Covered by a rifle in the hands of R. F. Prarl, one of the leading business men of Portland, a bold burglar last evening followed the example of Davy Crockett's famous coon and "cams down" from the roof of the Prae! residence at 89 North Twenty-first street, before a bullet was sent up to bring him off his perch be hind a chimney. Mr. and Mrs. Prael found the thief In the house when they returned home at about 7:30 o'clock and "treed" him on the roof. Mr. Prael promptly took the law into his own hands, and arming h.mself, went in pursuit. He had fired one shot, all but bagging his game, when the marauder remembered the precedent set by the coon in the old story and asked ; permission to surrender with a whole skin. The net results are that J. B. King, an ex-convict with a bad record. Is now In Jail, a diamond bracelet, an heirloom, is still missing and is presumed to have been thrown away by King, and the po lice are still searching for King's alleged accomplices. He stated that he had two "pals", in tne crime. The burglary was committed last even ' ing about 7:30 o'clock and that it was not successful was due to the early re turn of Mr. and Mrs. Prael to their home and the daring and courage shown by both. The burglars were discovered in the act of ransacking the house, but the neighbors and (lie police knew nothing of it until a shot had been fired at one of the criminals by Mr. Prael. This shot quickly brought out a crowd, Tolloe Cap- tain Bruin, who lives near by being one of the first to arrive on the scene. When the word "burglars" was passed from mouth to mouth and it was an nounced that one 'of them at least was cornered on the roof, many of the men present hastened to secure guns and re volvers and surround the house. This was hardly necessary, however, to secure at least one of the men, since when he hoard the command of Mr. Prael for the crowd to stand back so that he could take another shot the man behind the chimney pleaded to be allowed to sur render. His surrender contributed to the escape of at least one accomplice, who was supposed to be on the roof with the man now in custody. While the crowd was watching the one man '-'come down" the other escaped. The story of the fljvenlng Is best told in the words of Mr. Prael himself: Mr. Prael Tells the Story. "I had an engagement down town yes terday afternoon and about 6 o'clock Mrs. Prael left the house to meet me in the city. We started to walk home, but later took a car, reaching the house about 7:30 o'clock. ' When we came within sight .of our home Mrs. Prael suddenly remarked that she thought there must be burglars In the house as she noticed a light burn ing In our bedroom which she was sure had not been turned on when she left the house. I laughed at her fears, but when we got Into the hallway, from which we could look into the dining room, we were staggered to see the drawers of the sideboard pulled out and various articles scattered about the floor. "Mrs. Prael repeated that there must be burglars in the house. I Immediately started up stairs, followed closely by Mrs. Prcal. We had barely reached the second floor when we heard footsteps In the attic. I first closed the door leading to the attic, and hearing the man going out of the dormer window onto the roof I picked up a Mauser .ritle and went to a porch on the second story. Just as I stepped outside I looked up and saw the man's feet disappear' over the cornice as he began to climb up the roof. At the same time a silver spoon fell at my feet. "I said nothing but waited. It must nave been two or three minutes later that I saw, silhouetted against the sky, a head cautiously pushed forward over the cornice. I immediately fired but missed and 1 could hear the man scrambling up the roof. The shot arosed the neighbor liood apparently, and in a few minutes Captain Bruin came to where I was on the porch. I told him what had hap pened and at the same time some one came up and told us that a man was crouching behind the chimney. "I then said in a loud voice' that I was ftoing to take another shot when the man called out "Don't shoot, old man. I'll come down." Captain Bruin and I then. went up to the attic and the man came Into the room through the dormer win dow, the way he had gone out. Claims to Be Sailor. Immediately tipon his appearance In the room the burglar, who gave his name as J. B. King, was placed under arrest by Captain Bruin and closely questioned. He stated that he had had two "pals," and that one was still on the roof; further that he was a sailor, having recently ar rived from British Columbia. By this time the patrol wagon had reached the ecene, and King was hustled oft to the City Jail. On the, way he enlarged at length on the events of the evening, and told the officers that his "pal," a sailor, had climbed into one of the chimneys, and was still hiding there; also that he (King) had dropped his revolver behind the chimney in whose shadow ho had taken refuge. This information was sent out to the officers, who were still searching the house, and, owing to their inability to reach the roof, Truck No. 3 of the Fire Department was sent for. On Its arrival ladders were thrown up around the house, but a search of the roof and chimneys failed to reveal any accomplice. Fires were built In order to smoke out the supposed "pal," without result. King's revolver waa found, as I well as a quantity of silverware which King had thrown in the gutter running I along the eves of the house. When put through the "sweat-box" last I night King told what he asserted to be the full truth. Controverting his former I statement, he said that he had been re- lleaeed three weeks ago from the Walla I Walla penitentiary, after serving a three- Iyer term for highway robbery, committed I in Spokane. According to his statement. I he arrived in Oregon a few days ago, going direct to Salem, where he spent one I night. He then came to Oregon City, where he stayed two flays, coming to Portland yesterday afternoon. upon his arrival here he went to Brick- son's concert hall, where he met two linen whom he had never seen before, and (.lid not know. The three took a walk iround the city. King then went on to tell how the pro posed burglary came off: We went up into that neighborhood Lind found a vacant house next to the line where I was caught tonight TVe COON AMPLE went in there but could find nothing. Early this evening we went up to this other house and rang the bell. There was no answer and we concluded to rob it. One of the men climbed up the back porch and got into the house. He opened one of the downstairs windows and the other fellow and myself went in that way. We were upstairs when we heard the people coming in. Two of us went on to the roof and the other fellow ran down the street," King steadfastly refused to divulge the identity of his "pals," saying that he did not know their names. The state ment given by him is verified to some extent since the captured burglars and one of his "pals" were seen by several boys in the vacant house adjoining the residence of Mr. Prael, yesterday af ternoon. While no definite information is given out, it is believed that through this cap ture the police have found a clue to the gang which has lately baffled the de partment, and that within a short time all its members will be gathered in. That the gang had no fear of the police was shown by the reckless and thorough manner In which they located the house. In the. diningroom the drawers of the buffet were pulled out and their contents thoroughly, overhauled. Whether due to an oversight, or to avoid further attention, the silver service was left lying on a chair, while the bulk of the plunder taken out of the room was plated ware. In the bedrooms upstairs even the mat resses were pulled off the beds, bed clothing scattered around the room, and the bureaus ransacked. Even the cloth ing hanging in the closets had been searched. Throws Away Plunder. After the alarm, and upon reaching the roof, King attempted to dispose of his plunder by throwing most of It in the eaves trough. When taken to the station he still had a small quantity of silverware In his possession, which he acknowledged had been taken from the Prael residence. With the exception of a few small articles, Mr. Prael found last night that nothing was missing, except a diamond bracelet belonging to Mrs. Prael. ,This is of considerable value. It Is thought that King either threw this away before his capture, or that the accomplice got it. In spite of King's declaration that at least one of his pals still remained in hiding on the roof after his capture, no trace of him could be found, and it is now the opinion that while King was surrendering, the accomplice slipped oft the roof on to the back porch and from there to the ground. Neighbors assert ed that they saw a man scurrying through the back yards about that time. As to the third man, if he existed at all, it is the belief of the police that he was stationed outside to give warning to tiie men in the house, and ran away when the Praels came home. - FOUR KILLED ON GRIDIRON MANY FATALITIES DKSPITE THE REVISED RILES. So-Culled "Modified Game No Ix-ss Hough Thau the Sport It Su perseded, Experts Say. . Reports from various football quarters lead to t.ie belief that the players, coaches and spectators, as they grow more famil iar with the new rules, are becoming ar dent supporters of the revised game. It appears to be fairly well established now that the 1906 vintage of gridiron sport has all the advantages of the older game, and also some exceedingly interesting innova tions that have added several attractive features to the contest. Whereas, early in the season, before the changes in the rules were thoroughly un derstood and their scope appreciated, it was customary to denounce the work of revision, now there is little but praise. It has been found possible to use both open and mass systems of play, and all the good points in the game are still in exist ence, together with some new points that appeal to both those In the game and those on the side lines. This is the burden of the song these days, and the season barely half completed. The elimination of the danger of acci dents in football play, however, has not been reached, much as the optimistic sup porters of the new rules hoped for it, and there appears to be little chance that such a point will be reached, ine wise ones in the football circles of 14 did not expect it, and they have pointed out the impossibility of such a condition of affairs in any such sport as football. Despite the debrutalizing of the game under the new rules, the list of accidents has reached respectable proportions up to the present time. Most of these, It Is true, have occurred in practice, but as this has been the case in almost every football seasqn when a cry of the dangers of the game has arisen, that fact would seem to have little bearing. Four deaths have been reported since the opening of the work at schools and colleges, and there have been many minor injuries. A list of some of the more seri ous follows: Killed Kennedy, Lawreneevllle School; Paulin, Toronto University; Crislcr, Ohio vesleyan; Surdam. Morrlstown High School. Injured Seltzer, White Eagles team, fractured skull; Heddon, Mount Sterling (Ky.) High School, concussion of brain; Burch, Yale, broken shoulder; Kelnath, Pennsylvania, ankle broken; Stimson, Syracuse University, twisted knee; Die fenderfer, Bethlehem (Pa.) Grammar School, arm roken; Smith, Brown Uni versity; Bartholomew,1 Pennsylvania; Sou kep. Wisconsin, legs broken. The new football is not a parlor game yet. When it reaches that stage it will be football no longer. That there Is the element of danger in the English Rugby game,, which several of the more radical reformers wished to substitute for football, is heartily agreed to by no less an authority than James lanagan, head coach at Iceland Stanford University, who spent the past Summer in Canada studying the Britishers' game, and who recently said on the subject: "Rugby is Just as rough as football, but offers less opportunity for brutality. The tackling is Just as hard and usually oc curs in the open, when both runners and tackier are going at full speed. The ele ment of personal contact also enters into the scrum, where the opposing forwards match strength and agility. The football rules allow the defending side to use hands and arms in getting past opponents. In Rugby the use of hands and arms is forbidden to all but the man running with the ball. "A great deal has been said about the chance for lighter men in Rugby. They will have the same chance as in football, but no better. Given a fair amount of speed, technical ability and fight, the heavier a man is the greater will be his advantage. He will be harder to stop when running with the ball and more dangerous on defense. The forwards, cor responding to the line in football must be heavy men. The backs must be light, but the heavier they are the better. Mere sprinters are aa worthless in Rugby as In football." With games rapidly approaching that will test their strength as none of the previous contests of this season have done, the big teams of the East are hustling in their work these Fall after noons, and in many cases secret practice is the rule, for many new plays are on the card and the coaches call no man friend outside of the elevens.

The Portlands didn't have the pleasure of playing the closing game and winning It, like they did the opening game. But, 'no matter: McCredie's gallant crew long ago cinched the bunting and next Spring when the ump screeches "Play ball!'' out at Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets, the 1906 pennant will be sent aloft from the big flagpole, instead of an advertisement of canned goods. There will be great do ings on that day, and those of us who have the baseball bug can howl in do light while those called upon to deliver orations tell Manager Mac how proud Portland is of its'champlons. While the race for the bunting had been settled for weeks, there was never theless a pretty fight for second place between Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles. Seattle came In with a spurt, just as she did last year, crowded the Seals and Angels out of the way, and took a seat fn second place. The finish between the Seals and Los Angeles for third place was a ding-dong affair, but the Seals took a brace and won. Oak land and Fresno never had a lookin after the season got started the second time. From the very start McCredie's team made good. They gladdened the hearts of the local fans by winning the open ing game and were going along at a pennant-winning pace when the big shake hit graft-ridden San Francisco. Manager Mac and his men were mixed up in the dust and falling brick of San Francisco, which alone was enough to break up any organization, but this was not all the trouble that was In store for them. It broke out again in Los Angeles when Jim Morley tried to hand them a lemon when he held back the gate receipts from a crew of ballplayers that were as shy of cash as Abe Ruef Is of honest coin. In spite of these mishaps. McCredie brought his team home and the sprint for the top of the column began. There were many new faces on the team. The fans were anxious to get a glance at them and to see them in action. Reports of their good work had been heralded from the Southland, but it was not until the team was seen in action that the fan., made up their minds that yie team would do. Bounced the Boozeflghters. Manager McCredie had promised that he would clean out the old bunch of booze-fighters, and he did. Right off the reel every member of the team made good. Bill Sweeney, who was imported to play third, played short and the work of that clever ballplayer has attracted the attention of the baseball critics all Summer. Even at this lale date San Francisco papers are talking about his great doing at short. Not only is Sweeney a good fielder, but he can clout the ball and run bases. McCredie will be lucky if he can keep htm. Lister is undoubtedly the best fielding first baseman in the league. He may not have quite as much baseball in his noodle as Frank Dillon, but he has what Dillon has not a good disposition and the ability to behave himself on the field. Lister lost his batting eye when he took ill, but as the season was drawing to a close he was beginning to find his eye and was hitting the ball. Next season, if he gets off right, he will be the best flrst-sacker in the league. Mitchell, McHale and McCredie made an outfield hard to beat in any league. Mitchell we lose. He goes to Cincinnati next season. Mike is not a great ground coverer, but he more than makes up for this shortcoming by hisf hitting and base running. McHale has been a little weak at the bat. but there is no better fielder or base-runner In the league. There would be no keeping Jimmy McHale on the Coast if he were hitting in the .300 class. Drafting agents have had their eyes on Jimmy, and it would not be sur prising to see him on the drafted list, even though he has not joined the merry band of .30 clouters. All season Portland has been weak at third and second. It was not until the home wlndup that the keystone sack had a safe guardiai. Charley Moore did better than the average youngster would have done in the place, but Moore never quite mastered the position, Kane is a third baseman, but he put up a grand game at second until he got hurt Jud Smith's Lone Fault. Jud Smith was the only erratic player on the team. Smith got into action late and he never seemed to get his stride. There were days when Smith's playing was brilliant, but there were many when it was absolutely punk. Just about the time that Jud was due for a good scold ing he would pull off one of his great plays and he had to be forgiven. Then, too, he always seemed to many to hit the ball when winning runs were needed. Before the season opened Manager Mc Credie proroised that his pitching corps would be the best in the league and he made good. Henderson, CalifT. Esslck, Gum and Moore made a combination hard to beat. Henderson, perhaps, was best, with Califf and Gum next. Moore did not get enough work in the box to show just how good he was. We have lost Essick and Henderson, but McCredie says that he has a couple of twirlers on the list as good, if not better, than the two he lost. Henderson's place will be hard to fill, for that youngster was an all-around good ballplayer. In addition to being a star pitcher he was capable of playing in any department of the game. He can even go behind the bat. Another department in which McCredie was blessed was in the catcher's box. McLean, of course, was the peer of them all, both as a catcher and batter. While he was on deck Donahue did not have much of a chance to show his worth, but once the big fellow was out of the way. Donahue showed how good he was. After the team went south on its closing trip he received many flattering notices for his excellent, work from the critics. Carson, the new backstop, has made HISTORY good. So next year McCredie need not worry about catchers. JEFFRIKS ACTS AS UMPIRE. Yickers Holds the Angels and the Siwashes Win With Ease. ' LOS ANGELES, Nov. 4.

(Special.) Yesterday's game with Willamette proved the wisdom of Coach Bezdek's new lineup. Although Oregon's offense was ragged, the indi vidual work of Halfbacks Chandler and Moores was of a high order. Their fail ure to make long runs was due largely to the inability of the interference to form quickly on a muddy field, and to the ex cellence of Willamette's ends. Oregon's new lineup for defense, " with Chandler and Moores in the halfback po sitions and Moullen and McKinney on the ends, was effective, Willamette seldom gaining her required distance on- three downs. Zacharias. who played tackle for the first time, showed up splendidly, as did Pinkham at guard. Taken as a whole yesterday's game was a mediocre exhibi tion, but there is a general feeling that the Oregon eleven Is Just beginning to round into form and that by November 17, the date of the Oregon-Washington game, Bezdek's men will be playing gilt-edged bail. The varsity eleven has no game next Saturday, but the day will be given over to a second team game with the second team of O. A. C. Trainer Hayward an nounced today that Latourette will be able to play again by Tuesday. With the re liable little quarterback in the game and with two weeks of coaching, the Oregon team should be in fine trim for the Wash ington game. Washington's showing against Whitman has caused the local collegians to sit up and take notice, and there is a general feeling here that the game on November 17 will be one of the hardest of the sea son. ROLLER SKATING Ifi EAST DEVOTEES W1XL NOT ABANDON IT, EVEN FOR ICE. Athletes Fear Winter Will Be Mild, So the Wooden Floor Rinks Will Be Kept Open. The announcement that there will be only a few indoor ice skating meets thi3 Winter has revived Interest in roller skating in the East. Fearing a mild Winter, which would prevent outdoor skating, and not wish ing to remain inactive while waiting for the indoor ice meets, the athletes have deciled to continue competing in the events on rollers. At the Cler mont avenue rink, in Brooklyn, where the fastest men on rollers in the East race, it has been announced that races will be held weekly throughout the Winter. Nearly every boy who has achieved any success on rollers has an nounced his intention of competing in these events. Harry McDonald, of the New York Athletic Club, is a roller skater en thusiast who says the sport is here to stay. He says that the sport is as beneficial as Ice skating and is as pop ular. When the intercity league games be gin more interest is sure to be aroused. Sam Lee, the general manager of the various games and race meets, believes that before the middle of the Winter the sport will be more popular than Ice skating ever was. He says hun dreds are learning to skate daily, and others who know how to skate are go ing into the sporting end of the amuse ment. That the speed skaters are Improving Is demonstrated by the time they are making in the various events. When the season started it was regarded as fast time if an athlete covered a mile in less than four and a half minutes. As the season advanced faster time was made, until now the boys at the Clermont rink skate a mile in three minutes and a half. Time above three and three-quarter minutes is considered slow now, whereas a month ago it was termed exceptionally fast. This clip cannot be maintained at the Metropolitan rink because of its size. The Clermont is much larger, and con sequently fewer turns have to be made. But even with its many turns the ath letes can skate a mile at the Metro politan in less than four minutes now. When the rink first opened it took the Girlhood and Scott a- Emulsion are linked together. The girl who takes Scott' jr Emul sion has plenty of rich, red blood; she is plump, active and energetic The reason is that at a period when a girl's digestion is weak, Scott's Emulsion provides her with powerful nourishment in easily digested form. It is a food that builds and keeps up a girl's strength. o ALL DRUGGISTS! best skaters In the city to cover that distance in less than five minutes. At the Manhattan rink, in Harlem, fast time is also made. In fact, every where the boys are improving, and be fore the cold weather is over it is like ly that a mile will be covered in three minutes. For speeding purposes the Bon Ton rink, in Brooklyn, Is being enlarged. While fast time is being made there now, It is considered by the manage ment to be a little too small for the purpose of fast skating. When it Is completed it will be surpassed by only one or two rinks in the greater city for this purpose. Manager Joe Brown says Allen Church, of the Bon Ton Club, is as fast a skater in a small rink as there is in the country. AT THE HOTELS. The Portland J. M. Simpson. Chicago; O. E. Bryan, Omaha; E. J.

Nervous Women Their Suffering's Are Usually Due to Female Disorders Perhaps Unsuspected A MEDICINE THAT CURES Can we dispute the well-known fact that American women are ner vous ? How often dowe hear the expres sion, "I am so ner vous, it seems as if I should fly;" or, " Don't speak to 'rsMShotyyCfme " Little tWn m "Wannoy you and make you irritable ; you can't sleep, you are unable to quietly and calmly perform your daily tasks or care for your children. The relation of the nerves and gen erative organs in woman is so close that nine-tenths of the nervous pros tration, nervous debility, the blues, sleeplessness and nervous irritability arise from some deranpement of the organism which makes her a woman. Fits of depression or restlessness and irritability ; spirits easily affected, so that one minute she laughs, the next minute weeps ; pain in the abdominal region and between the shoulders; loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a tendency to cry at the least provoca tion all these point to nervous pros tration. Nothing will relieve this distressing condition and prevent months of pros tration and suffering so surely as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Mrs. M. E. Shotwell. of 103 Flatbush Avenue, Brooklyn, N. Y,, writes: "I cannot express the wonderful relief I have experienced by taking I.vdia E. Pink barn's Vegetable Compound, f suffered for a long time with nervous prostration, bark ache, headache, loss-of appetite. I could not sleep and would walk the floor almost every night. "I had three doctors and got no better, and life was a burden. I was advised to trv Lydia E. Pinkbam's Vepetabie Compound, and it has worked wonders for me. . "I am a well woman, my nervousness is all gone and my friends say I look ten years younger." Will not the volumes of letters from women made strong by Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound convince all women f its virtues? Surely you cannot wish to remain sick, weak and discouraged, exhausted each day, when you can be as easily cured aa ber women. sing:.
