Ivan Ellmaker Causes Trouble

On Fire.
Angered because of hla Incarcera
tion in the city jail, Ivan Ellmaker,
of Yoncaila Ignited the bed clothing
with the result that he was almost,
suffocated yesterday.
From reports received form Yon
calla today, It appears that youus
Ellmaker has a mania for leaving
home without adv'sm: his parents
as to his prospective whereabouts.
For the fourth or flfHi tim-3 within
the past two years, the b.iy loft home
a few days ago without the. knowl
edge or consent f hi-? parents. He
had been pone but a few hours,
however, when bis whereabouts be
came known, and Marsiml Wooster
was sent to bring him hack. The of
ficer arrived with the boy and he
was remanded to the city jail jail
awaiting disposition at tho hands
of the juvenile authorities.
Yesterday morning persons who
chanced to be In the vicinity of the
jail noticed smoke issuing from th
roof, and upon gaining entrance a
few minutes later, found the bed
clothing in flames. With the assis
tance of a few pails of water the
Are was soon extinguished without
material damage to either the jail
or Its occupant. Thinking that the
hoy owuld realize the folly of bis
action the officers thought no more
of the incident and left the premises
together with the crowd of specta
tors that assembled following the
alarm.
They had hardly departed from the
scene, however, when the attention
of persons loitering about the jail
yard was again attracted to clouds
of smoke Issuing from tho roof. An

alarm was Immediately sounded, and
Marshal Wouster responded only to
Hud that ho bad carelessly lett his
Keys at home. Running 'to his resi
dence, a distance of several blocks,
the officer soon returned with the
keys and the jail doors were un
locked. I'pou entering the structure
the room was found to be well filled
with smuke, while young Ellmaker
displayed evidence of distress. I'pon
investigation it was found that be
had ignited the bed clothing for the
second time, presumably with a de
terminatioL jf destroying the jail
out revenge. After a few minutes
of diligent labor, the flames were ex
tinguished. Young Ellmaker is well known in
the vicinity of Yoncalla where he. has
caused; (the officers considerable
trouble in time past. Only a few
months ago he disappeared N from
home, and upon solicitation of his
mother, several posses were sent In
search. At that time it was pre
sumed that he had committed sui
cide for the reason that he left the
iamily home following an altercation
with his mother. The lad Is said to
possess a despondent disposition, and
has often made threats that he
would end his life.
, It, is probable that Ellmaker will
be brought before the juvenile court
and questioned at some length rela
tive to his recent acts. At least,
such a course is deemed advisable
by the Yoncalla officers who know
hini best. When interviewed follow
ing tho second fire. Ellmaker had
little to say, other than he had "11
In" for the officers. Marshal Woos
ter searched the lad after the fire
and found a good supply of matches
on his person.

Secretary Fisher Impressed him
?elf upon the people of Alaska as
a straightforward man of much abil
ity. In the four "coal towns" of

with utmost interest in the hope
hat Itmigbt foreshadow the policy
jf the administration on the coal
tuestion. From bis private and pub
ic talks four well defined ideas were
nferred:

If there are any legal coal claims
hey will be promptly allowed.
In applying tho law, tho secretary
.ill have much tei.derness for those
.vho have actually participated in
lie work of discovery and develop
nent. but does not feel, as he said,
'particularly enthusiastic about
hose claimants who tell of the hnrd-
iiips of a country they never saw."
The notion entertained by many
Maskans that the coal lauds should

talists "doesn't go".

REPRESENT CLARK'S INTERESTS
Revy Of Rnitrond Men Drop
Then Out Again.
In
- Although the surveying crows oT
the Nevers-Aston railroad promoters
have been tho most In evidence late
ly, the Clark Interests have not aban
doned the field by any means, at
the present time have representa
tives out securing rights-of-way for
the Clark project. One or two wise
ones claim to have recognized one of
a party of four that arrived this
morning from Portland as a man
who has made a number of trips 'to
Roseburg and Marshfield In the In
terests of the Coos Hay-RolHO road,
and as this party was later seen
headed west In an automobile. It
Is supposed that they are directly
connected with tho Clark project.
Rights of way are being secured In
Cooc county by agents of the Coos
Hay and Eistein Oregon railroad,
i the (Mark road Is now known, and
'he report Is that these agents have
'eeii very successful.

hat they wem connected with the

'be News reporter, however, that
there is a very good reason for the
apparent delay In announcing the
plans of Mr. Clark and his backers.
and that the month or September will
sin act mil construction commenced,
and that, any parallel surveys of any
kind will not and have not delaed
the Coos Hay-Eastern Oregon road,
the delay being occasioned by reas
one not connected with any outside
Influences .whatever. As Is usually
the casr the men who were in Rose
burg tl Is morning declined to give
out any Information, leaving the city
just as soon as they could arrange
for trarsportal bin. but the very fact
that t !'' are connected wit h the
Coos I ny-RolHo project Is evidence
that Mr. Clark's Interests are not
being neglected; and that some sub
stantia ' evidence of railroad build
ing wli soon he apparent. Whether
or no', construction commences In
September, there are excellent, reas
ons to believe that definite announce
ments 'till he made during tin
month and that Rosehurg will b"
able to announce to an Interested
public that the act mil route of the
east and west rail mud to thn coast
Is throui h Roseburg, and not several
