If there Is any truth In the cabled
report today that Turkey has sent an
ngent to Berlin, to Inform the Kaiser
that Turkey can no longer enrry on
the war, and will sue for separate
peace. It will mean the release of a
considerable force of the allies which

Mr. Jorey has been a member of Cus
cade Lodge In Ncbruska for over 25
years continuous mcmlit rship and
last night was presented with the Vet
erne's Jewel which Is considered as
the highest gift of honor that can be
bestowed on a Knight of Pythias.
The presentation took the form of
a mock trial. Mr. Jorey was, Invited
to come out and partake of short
rake. When he entered tho Castle
hall he was arrested and brought bo
fore the C. C. and the formal charge
of "bigamy'; was read to him. This
took hlni almost off his feet but when
he wub ordered escorted from the hall
by the M. A., Mr. Jorey was Inclined
to enter a mild protest. However, he
was not allowed to say a word and
later was brought back Into the h;n
where ho wns tried and convicted of
having two wives one his lawful
wedded wife and the other nfflnltv.

fnithful for over 20 years, ('has. F.

by tho C. C. of Alpha Lodge. A large
number of members were present and
voted that tho evening's entertain

for a long time. There will be more

IX THE CIRCUIT COURT TODAY
Th case of the Lewlston Milling
Co; against Hermann Koenlg and
Roboit Schonwald, an action to re
cover money, occupied the attention
of Judge Skipworth today. The case
goes back to the time Church Bros,
conducted the Cass street bakery and
sold to the defendants. Prior to the
sale Church Bros, bad ordered ;)s0
worth of flour front the milling com
pany. This account was transferred
to Koenig and Schoenwald who gave
a chattel mortgage to Church riros.
Atter conducting the bakery for a
few months they sold tho bakery to
Hutchins and Son, who claim they
knew nothing of the transaction be
tween tho milling company and the
previous owners. They used the bal
ance of the flour and the milling com
pany is trying to collect the amount
still due on the invoice.
B. L. Eddy represents the milling
company and O. P. Coshow and Al
bert Abraham the defendants.
Two damage suits against the city
of Oakland are to follow this case.
