Chief or Police Clark's Sleuths Find Little Eva Mattox Had Been Llv , lng With Father and Was Xow In Care Juvenile Officials. . After searching for her daughter for nine years, Mrs. G. A, Patterson, of 2410 Bellefontalne street, Kansas City, Mo., arrived In Portland on the daugh ter's trail only to find that the child Is a ward of the Juvenile Court. She Is now trying to prove her fitness to take care of the girl, Eva, 17 years old, Mrs. Patterson's daughter by mar. rlage with Gurney Mattox, who is now a shoemaker at 661 Alberta street According to Mrs. Patterson, who Is 32 years old, but who was but a little over 14 when she married Mattox, 35 years old, in War Eagle, Ark., the girl was kidnaped from the streets of Carthage, Mo, by Pink Mattox, brother of her husband, while the girl was re turning from school In company with May and Silver Walker, sisters of Mrs. Patterson. This was several years after the present Mrs. Patterson had separated from her husband, following alleged unkind treatment when she had bcn married to him but a few months. Eva was taken to a hotel In Carthage and then spirited away, and until about six weeks ago Mrs. Patterson did not know her whereabouts. Finally, about six weeks ago, the girl, who is now 17 years old, wrote to her mother, giving no address. The postmark was blurred, showing only Port but Mrs. Patterson wrote to Chief of Police -Clark. Detective Hawley found the girl was living with her father and had been taken Into the-l care of the Juvenile Court. That she Is acting on the admonition conveyed In the last living words of her mother and Eva's maternal grand- Mo, is Mrs. Patterson's explanation of her long search. "Do not cease hunting for Eva while you live," Mrs. Patterson says her mother ordered her from her deathbed, and in the years that have followed she has not quit the search. The death Mrs. Patterson says, was caused prl marily by the loss of Mrs. Walker's grandchild, Eva, to whom she was sort of foster mother, as well as grandmother. Mrs. Patterson, who says she gained a divorce from Mattox by default in 1897, is now the wife of a Kansas City railroad man. She is staying in Port land, at the Hoyt Hotel, Sixth and Hoyt streets, while the Juvenile Court in vestigates the case. An attempt, whlcn she says she made without knowing the circumstances, to take the girl Eas with her. Monday, was stopped by Miss. Butler, of the Juvenile Court, and Eva Is now at the Detention Home pending the outcome of the case. mother. Mrs. D. R. Walker, of Carthage, ter. CITY'SCO-OPERATIONASKED County Wants Portland to Help In Care of Bridges and Ferry. Under the terms of the Sands admin istrative code, which has been adopted by the County Commissioners, the maintenance and operations of the bridges and ferries of the county must be under the special supervision of a bridge engineer employed by the coun ty or must be inspected each month by the engineering dppartment of the city.

I have had several evenings and afternoons of it lately, and I find t a game enormously fascinating and stimulating; and very much more prof- lab le and worth while than some other kinds of bridge I know about. A game ree from the taint of risk or chance game you and I and all of us may play, and at which none of us can lose. And the ultimate prize, which all of us are to win.
