Special fo the Evening Review.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Nov. 11. After
eluding posses for a period of 16
days, during which time he was a
spectacular figure in several bold
fights, Leo ltezomer, the kidnanper.
was captured by Deputy Sheriffs at
2 o'clock this morning, nt the home
of Davis Kay. a farmer, on the south
shore of Hitter Lake Mine. Bezemer
la now in Jail In Seattle. J. B. John
son, a farmer, recognized Bezemer
from a published description, as he
met him on the road, and notified
he authorities as soon as possible.
Bezemer was sleeping soundly when
the officers entered. When awaken
ed and placed under arrest, Bezemer
wanted to know If he was wanted
for murder, and when told no he waB
greatly relieved.
On the-26th of Inst October, at
Mt. Vernon, Bezemer held up E. H.
English, a wealthy logger, and made
him sign a note addressed to Mrs.
English, directing her to pay the
kidnapper $5000. Bezemer then
chained English to a tree and start
ed for the English home at Marys
ville to get the money. In the mean
time, English freed himself from the
chains, and, hastening to th nearest
telegraph office, sent word to his
wife acquainting her with the cir
cumstances. Mrs. English promptly

was confronted by several officers
and told to surrender. Instead of
complying, Bezemer drew a revolver
and opened Are and then fled. One
of his shots wounded Deputy Sheriff
Dunham in the groin. It was this
circumstance that cauBed -the kid
napper to ask when arrested if he
was wanted for murder.
FAILS OF HIS PURPOSE.
Accused Minister Must Return to
Texas, Hays Governor.
Falling In his attempt to induce
Governor Chamberlain not to honor
a requisition for his extradition to
Texas, Rev. Chas. Clark or Summors,
aB his name may bo, returned from
Salem, In the custody of Sheriff Fen
ton, Tuesday evening, and was lock
ed up In the county jail. During the
interview at Salem, Governor Cham
berlain informed the minister that
the letters which he showed him were
satisfactory evidence that his life In
Oregon had been above reproach. So
unsatisfactory, however, was the ex
planation of the milliliter of his pre
vious career In Texas, particularly
with reference to the charges against
him, that the governor nt once in
formed him that when the requisi
tion arrived from Texas he would
have to honor It. The minister ac
'epted his Imprisonment here with
bad grace, but he will have to remain
In jail until an officer, now enroute,
arrives, with the necessary papers to
tnke him back to Texas.
Rev. Clark will issue a statement
to the public through the columns of
The Review tomorrow.

HIGH SCHOOL WINS.
Athletic Club lMses Bosket Ball
Game by Score of 17. to 12.
In the first basket ball game of the
season, played at Sykes' rink Tuesday
night, Roseburg High School defeat
ed Roseburg Athletic Club by the
score of 17 to 12. The crowd that
saw the game was a large one, and
the noise made was ten times us great
in proportion. The line-up follows:
High School Hewitt ajid Mnrsters,
forwards; Buchanan, center; Parrlsh
and Tiptou, guards.
Athletic Club Pickens and Palm,
forwards; Henderson, center; Good
man and Cobb (tlrst half) and Vin
son (second half), guards.
Buchanan and Marsters played a
star game, each landing the bail in
the net 4 times. The latter's de
fensive work was also excellent. In
all, eleven fouls were called, but only
one of these resulted In a score. Ben
jamin Caro, a High School boy. did
the referee stunt In the first half
and called eight fouls on the Ath
letics and only one on the Students.
Naturally, there was some grumbling,
so Ed. Thornton succeeded Caro in
the second half. He called one foul
on each team.
At the end of the first half, the
Students had 9 points to their credit
and the Athletics 8. in the second
half, the Athletics started out to
wrest a victory, and an exciting bat
tle ensued. For the first Ave minutes
of play neither side allowed a score.
Finally Henderson bad an oppor
tunity to tie on a foul and missed the
net. - This gave the StudenU) fresh
vigor and they played 'the remainder
of the half in superior fashion, find
ing the net for eight points, while the
best their opponents could do was
to register halt tbat number.

Dr. A. C. Seely todny became the
possessor of tho art style Hush &
Lnno piano, which has been on ex
hibition in the windows of W. A.
Ilurr's music store, In this city, for
several days past. Tho instrument
has hoen pronounced not only the
handsomest, but the most richly
toned piano ever brought to the
city. Whore other pianos failed to
attract attention, this particular In
strument engaged the eye of nearly
every passer-by, and more than one
home-owner In Roseburg will envy
ur. beely In his purchase.
To see the Instrument was to ad
mire it; to hear its faultless tone was
Io fall In love with It. It la encased
in highly polished French burl wnl
nut and in construction it presents a
triumph in acoustics as applied to
piano making.
Although Introduced In this city
and county only a short time ago,
the Hush ft Lane piano Is rapidly
forging to the front In 'popularity
among music lovers. Piano players
who are also accurate judges have
unhesitatingly pronounced the Hush

ever heard. In less than three
months' time, Mr. Burr has sold two
carloads of this make of piano, and
has a third carload now on the way
here, destined to arrive about the
20th of the month.

Behind the Invltntlnn of the citi
zens of Enterprise to the genernl
officers of the Harrlnmn linos to at
tend a banquet in honor of tho com
pletion and dedication of the rond to
Wallowa tomorrow lies a story of
quint railroading that would dn.zle
even Jim Mill.
While Hill hns been constructing
the North llnnk roud and thus at
taining an easy grado to tho Pacific,
tho llarrlmnn people have, at the
same time nnd unknown to the pub
lie, been getting a water grnde to
Portland, and they will bo In a posi
tion, when their lines are completed,
to handle tho "down-the-Coluinbln"
traffic just as easily as tho Hill line
will. They will hnvo a down-grade
route to tho city.
Tho lines of the llarrlmnn system
which will form a part of the "down
grade" routo have been under con
struotlon for somo time, and It Is
understood that work upon them will
be continued throughout tho winter
wherever possible.
To Hie public these lines hnve been
known ns the "Wallowa & Snake
River extensions." On pniier thoy ap
peared to bo an outlot only for local
traffic Tho Wallowa extension
meant simply the displacing by the
railroad of the stage line to Enter
prico, tho principal city of tho coun
ty. Of course, the company would
continue the lino to Joseph as a tem
porary terminus. There construction
might stop. No promises were mndo.
The Snake River line wns moving
ahead from Huntington north. Its
terminus was supposed to be Home
stead, the nearest outlet on the
Oregon sldo for the product of the
copper mines In the Seven Devils dis
trict of Idaho. A great, number of
claims have been staked In tho dis
trict, mnny are working and a smelt
er Is In operation. Nothing, it was
thought, wns more reasonable thnn
to believe that the llarrlmnn com
pany wns building a freight lino for
the transportation of copper.
Hut Hniiniitn wns really dolnir no
such thing. Ho wns and Is, accord
ing to the most authentic Informa
tion, building the Snake River line
from Huntington to a connection at
Lewlston and thus getting -the benefit
of tho down-rlvor grade to Port
lnnd, giving him nn opportunllv to.
competo'wJIh the North Rank Rond
on equal terms. Tho-Joseph terminal
Is an . Illusion to the people of
Joseph. The llne(fwill run freleht
through -that town to a connection
with the Snake River line at a point
northeast of Homestead. It will,
when completed, be equipped for
both freight and passenger service,
but Indications are that ou throtiKh
service only freight will he handled.
Over the new road the grade will
be prnetlcally level. Leaving from
the point near Homestead, tho trains
will pass by way of Joseph and En
terprise Into La Orande. and thus
avoid the unnecessary climb of the
Blue mountains. The road will he
longer, but the handling of freight
will bo easier. In pnssenger trnlfir
there will be no change in the sys
tem. The line from Huntington to
La Grande, although having heavy
grades, is the shortest route for pns
senger Bervlce.
