Ar rested while eating dinner In an Hast Side reHtaurant last night on a charge of murdering Kliner Perdue. In a lonely cabin near Timber, Wash ington county, July 3, Walter John sou, aged 'i'i years, made a complete confession to Sheriff Stevens three hours later, udmltting his brutul crime. Johnson killed Perdue for the money he carried with him, about $140, and after robbing the dead body of his victim, covered the corpse with leaves and brush and made his way to Portland by a round-about route. TellH of Itrutul Crime. '1 killed Perdue," admitted John son.- "We slept together In the cabir and that morning we had ome dis pute about money matters. I had gone with him Into the timber tu locate him on a quarter section of timber land. Words passed and then 1 got my rille and blew the lop of his head off. 'He died Instantly and I searchet his pockets and took between $130 and $140. I also took his watch and knife and oilier personal effects. I will show the officers where 1 hid these things nearby. "After taking whatever of value lie had In his pockets, 1 dragged the body away a short distance Into the woods and placed It In a ditch, where I covered It over with leaves and brush. Then 1 went back to the abin and cooked my breakfast. Af ter eating it, I made my way by a roundabout way to Portlund." Johnson appeared very nervous af ier he was arrested and told the of ficers he experienced a great sense of relief In getting his dread secret off his mind. The prisoner will be taken to Hlllsboro today by Sheriff Han- pock, of Washington county, and lodged In jail there to await trial. Johnson Is well known at Cornel ius, where his father ran a saloon In the U0s, nnd where the boy wnr noted for truancy and for petty thieving. SHARP STICK IN IIKAltT. Coroner's Jury Says Accident in Case of It. M, Wood, at (iiLston. HILLSIiORO, Or., Aug. 17. With a hole In his heart, evidently made by some blunt instrument, Robert M. Wood was found dead early this morning near the barn of II. D. Jennings, at Gaston, 12 miles umth of here. Beside the body was .i sharpened stick, bloody at the point. Deep mystery envelopes the rase. A coroner's Jury, after examining the premises and taking the testl moiiy of H. D. Jennings nnd wife, al whose house Wood had been making his home for three years, returned a verdict of accidental death. Wood lived with the Jennings family. Three years ago an attempt upon his life was made by Allen George . McDonald. who believed Mrs. Jennings, of whom he was en amored, was in love with Wood. Mc Donald killed himself when he found ho himself was facing arrest. Notwithstanding this former tra gedy and its unfavorable lm plica tion ns regards Mrs. Jennings, her husband declares his relations with Wood were friendly and that there was no jealousy bet ween them. In this statement Jennings is joined by his wife. -o- Dr. Lowe, the well known optician w:il visit towns aH ft Hows; t'jtinu's Giove, Aug. 24; Yoiicalla. Vig. 2'i; 'it I. laud, Aug. 27 ; Rosebu .

THE GREATEST NOVEL QFMODERN LITERATURE MARTIN EDEN BY JACK LONDON This is Jack London's latest and greatest novel, and is written as a thinly veiled story of this great Author's life. It will be published as a serial story in The Pacific Monthly and will run about 12 months In search for a ureal novel we were unable to find anything that had not been spoken for at least a year ahead. London, who had already contributed several short stories to The Pa cific Monthly, we scarcely hoped to r.-ach, and did not communicate with him, as he was out of the country, until we accidentally learned that he had just completed, and was sending from somewhere in the South Seas, the manu script for his latest novel. An urgent telegram and letter to his agent, Mrs. Ninetta Kanies, offering a good round sum for the mere privilege of reading the manuscript, and for an option upon it for ten days, brought a prompt and favorable reply. The manuscript came, beautifully typewritten, 142,000 words in length. We read it and it impressed us as tho best novel we had ever read. Wc immediately wrote Mrs. Karnes, and aUcr considerable negotiating, succeeded in securing evdnsive magazine publication rights, at the enormous price of $7,000. Mr. Loudon recognizes this as is greatest work but is' too modest to express himselj beyond this brie remark in a letter: "I do not know what you will think of this novel; I do not know what to think of it myself. But at any rate you will find it entirely dif ferent from anything else I have done." One of London's most intimate friends who has read the manuscript of Martin Eden, says that London has put into its pages a vivid picture of his own wonderful struggle for success in authorship. Perhaps this-accounts for the wonderful effectiveness of the storv. It has more than once been noted by reviewers and critical essayists, that when an author puts his own story into a book, if he is a great author like London, is apt to be bis masterpiece. Jack London, still but a youth of thirty-two, has done a prodigious amount of work. Think of this record! Seventeen complete volumes of novels and short stories, besides this great Martin Eden, his latest and every one of them a hit with the reading public, and the most famous authoritative reviewers. " & ' London's understanding is clear oi how to achieve the great end of the finest art in literary creation ( just as in painting), viz: to stir the emotions; and he has written nothing that stirs them so profoundly asdoes Martin Eden.
