Cohen was caught while attempting to rifle a room in the Newcastle House. Mrs. Kate Huntley, who lives in the hotel, assisted in capturing him. His case will come up August 13. Four other cases of larceny from dwellings were reported to the detectives yesterday' morning.

That one of the pair of robbers who held hlra up and robbed him of Jewelry and money valued at J3O0 on the night of August 5. near his home. 196 Willamette boulevard, was a woman.

This information was conveyed by Campbell to Chief of Police Cox yesterday morning, who gave it into the hands of Detectives Coleman and Price. The circumstances of the robbery were such that Campbefl was able to see only one of the robbers. The other came up from behind and relieved him of his valuables and after reflecting on the matter Campbell says his Im pression is that the second robber was a woman.' Joxb Must Go to Cotmi. Fred A.

Brother Charles Reveals No Secrets of National Import Relative of Lincoln's, Persistent Presidential Aspirant, Grudgingly Admits That Portland Is Having Pleasant Weather. BY ARTHUR A. GREENE. TO Know a orotner 01 1 ir.g candidate for President is a great privilege; ain't It, say, Grace. Well I did that yesterday and it v.as a precious moment, or several moments, to be exact we have no de sire to exaggerate. It happened in this manner: Charles W. Bryan, brother to Bill, was at the Cornelius yesterday, and was afraid he would talk his head off to newspaper people. He Is a nice person. Is Brother Charles, and said unthrilling things. He is managing editor of the Com moner, our hated but esteemed con temporary which the erstwhile almost embrvonic President Is supposed to edit between Chautauqua salutes. Now, I should say at the outset, that all young men who aspire to be brothers to Presidents should be careful to have themselves named Charles. It Is a good nisme and it takes the candy, for what with Charles Bryan and Charles Tart at the present time It is a good game. It helps them and is good for what ails them. Mr. Charles Bryan Is an awful 'frald cat that he will tell something that ,. .. . thp rmirsf of the world's proBress. ile erudfilnglj; admitted, that WEBSTER CASE PUT OFF COITXTY JUDGE NOT IX COTTRT FOR HEARING. Attorney King Says He Is in No Har ry, Jnst So Accounting Is Eventu ally Made for Time Put In. Yesterday was the time set for County Judge Webster to show cause why he should not be compelled by peremptory mandamus to make a de tailed statement of the time he has been out of the city on private law practice. But Circuit Judge Morrow was not on the bench yesterday. Neither did Judge Webster put In an appearance in court. He was represented, however, by Attorney Zera Snow, who appeared as a friend of the court before Circuit Judge Gatens and asked that the mat ter be continued until he could be heard. Judge Gatens thereupon sus pended the Issuance of the peremptory writ unti1 September 1. Attorney H. C, King, who filed the suit against the judge, said he was in no hurry, but that he would like a defi nite time set for the hearing. Judge Gatens' order says "on or before Sep tember 1." King said he has a backing of heavy taxpayers. He has alleged that Judge Webster has been out of town on pri vate business at least a half of his term, and that the county records do not show when he was away. As soon as the judge has filed his statement of time. King says he will bring suit to have the county reimbursed for that part of Judge Webster's salary paid him when he was not attending to county business. WOMAN HAS GRIEVOUS TALE Declares Husband Considers Comfort Above Her Life. What ought to be done to a husband who considers his own comfort of more consequence than the life of his sick wife? Mrs. Ella C Garrison has decid ed to divorce such an one. She filed her complaint against Lloyd A. Garri son, a tinner, in Circuit Court yester day. Mrs. Garrison says she was so sick medical attention was necessary, but her husband refused to pay any of her bills and boarded with her aunt and uncle. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph T. Bisson ctte, at Laurelwood. while earning $5 a day. He slept in a comfortable bed, she says, compelling her to He helpless upon an uncomfortable couch. Besides he flirted, she says, with a Mrs. Backum, kissing and caressing her, and other wise disrespectfully condveting himself. Mrs. Garrison also tells of false charges made by him against her m juvenile Court, which she says he made to wound her feelings. She married him at Camden. N. J., November 29, 104. Mrs. Charles P. Wadst, of 466 Forty eighth street. Oakland. Cal., has writ ten County Clerk Fields to send her a duplicate of a marriage certificate which she obtained April 29, 1876. She says the original was destroyed in the Sari Francisco earthquake and fire of 1906. "My maiden name was Annie A. Pierpolnt." she says, "aaugnter oi wni iam Pierooint. widow of Charles P. Wadst." She says she married Mr. Dil- lion, editor of the Christian Advocate. NEW BILLBOARD INVENTED E. F. Cannon Thinks He Has Elimi nated Objectionable Features. Should the City Council decide that billboards of the present type shall be abolished. E. F. Cannon, of this city, thinks he can furnish a substitute that will answer all the requirements of ad vertlsers and eliminate the objectionable features of the billboards now in use. Mr. Cannon's Invention consists of a box frame containing a canvas strip oper ating over wooden rollers. An electric motor underneath the frame connected with a time gauge shows each advertise ment for a given time at regular Inter vals and In this way a large number of advertisements can be shown on a lim lted surface. Electric lights at the sides of the frame make the advertisements visible at night. The rolls and frames can be made any size to accommodate the size and number of displays. One machine Is constructed to take care of permanent or standard advertisements, while the other Is for use of bills. The latter machine Is provided with a tame through which .the bills are run to moisten the paste when removing same. Mr. Cannon secured patents on these two machines last May, in addition to patents covering a somewhat similar con trivance for Indoor commercial adver tising. He is also the patentee of a tree-falling appliance which enables thi operator to fell and strip a tree without assistance. The billboard invention Mr. Cannon expects to manufacture either here or in San Francisco and have on the market within a year. ROOF GARDEN. N'ortonla Hotel, Eleventh street, off Washington. Dinner parties arranged for. Phone Home A 6021, Main 7161. Phone IJne lor Mill Town. KELSO. Wash., Aug. 10. (Special.) Skamokawa. the milling town of Wahki akum County, which bids fair to become one of the large milling centers of this part of the state, is now connected by telephone with the outside world. This la a great advantage to the number of mills at that place, whose head offices are at Portland. The new line is built It was a sunshiny day. but that was about as far as he would go. He con served God-given information better than anybody from Lincoln, Nebraska, has ever done before. Brother Charles is angular and un handsome and he also has a mustache. He can't help any of that, except mat a certain brand of safety razors is lib erally advertised. He's accumulated a grouch against the new tariff bill and says the Middle West, which lies near Lecompton, Kansas, will go skyhooting after Brother Bill or other gods as they should be at the very next chance the sovereign voter has at the suffrage box. Mr. Bryan is probably older than his brother, and he isn't a bad sort at all. He is understood to be a hit in Lincoln, Neb. He stayed .at the Cornelius yes terday long enough to hold a grand reunion with Senator Milt. Miller, an other statesman of parts, and then he went away, having beforetime seen the Seattle exposition. Brother Charles is a perfectly good man so far as outward manifestations go, but he is not what would be called an intellectual riot. He thinks this is a good land and says his brother is neither a candidate for President in 1312 nor for United Slates Senator from Nebraska.
