WASHINGTON, Oct. 20. The Board of Managers of the National Geographical Society met today to examine the documents and data submitted by Commander Peary to establish his claim to the discovery of the North Pole. The society pre viously asked Dr. Cook for h!s data, but the Urookiyntte had already promised the first examination to the faculty of the University of Cop enhagen. Professor Henry Gnnnet, of the United Slates Geographical Survey, Rear Admiral Chester, retired, and D. H. Tittman, superintendent of the Coast Geographical Survey, have been appointed by the Society to pass upon Peary's claims. They will merely decide whether Peary reached the Pole, but not whether he beat Cook to It. Wright Bros. Guard Laurel. NEW YORK, Oct. 20. Claiming that their aeroplane patents cover all heavier-than-air machines, Wilbur and Orville Wright, the noted avia tors, today asked for a Federal in junction to, prevent Ralph Saulnier from attempting a flight In a ma chine which is a duplicate of the one used by Louis Bleriot in his flU'h across the English Channel. Wright Brothers' petition also asks for the right to have Saulnler's machine de stroyed. Saulnier has postponed his planned flights until the matter is settled In or out of the courts.

Waltz, of Portland. The people were there In goodly , numbers, and fine spirits, despite the downpour of rain. Rev. 1. N. Mun roe, of Portland, .and Rev. S. A, Hay worth, of Oregon City, delivered in spiring addresses. This morning the programme was on the general theme, "The Christian Minister." Twelve pithy, pointed Baptist Ministers' Conference of Ore- gon were elected, as follows. Presi- lug between James Dutton, of Eden dent, Rev. F. C. Lovett, of Grants, bower, and James Dutton, of circus Pass; Secretary-Treasurer, Rev. Pease of Oregon City This afternoon's session opened at 1:30 with a lllble reading con- ducted by Evangelist H. Wyse Jones, well known in Roseburg. Rev. E. H. Hicks, Dr. C. A. Wooddy, and Dr. J. Whltcomb Brougher, D. D., of Portland, and others delivered ad- dresses. Tonight, after the addresses of welcome to be given by Mayor IIoov - and Pastor Eaton and the re- sponse by President O. C. Wright, of Eugene, the annual sermon before 1 the convention will ba given by Rev. C. P. Bailey, of Prineville. Commercial Club Welcomes Visitors, The Review Is in receipt of a communication sharply criticizing the local Commercial Club manage ment for refusing the use of the Club rooms Tuesday afternoon for a busi ness session of the State Baptist Con vention, now in session in this city. It was cited that railroad and other meetings had been held in the Club rooms and the withholding of Its use from the ministers is characterized as discrimination which should not i be tolerated. This letter was written ! bv a local business man who is not a member of the Baptist church and Is not a member of the Commercial Club, but contributes to Us adver- Using fund. j Upon Investigation we find that the Club by-laws expressly provide that no political or sectarian meetings of any kind shall be held in the Club rooms, and the Club officers were therefore powerless to extend a courtesy that they would otherwise have been glad to offer to the visit ing ministers. We are assured. however, that all the usual privi- IpR(,s of the CUlb arc cor(iiniy ex- tended to tho visitors In attendance at this Convention and that all mem bers will be welcomed to the Club hendquarters at any time they may wish to visit same. All the Club privileges are tendered for their free use. $200,000 WILDING FOR SAX FRANCISCO ODD FELLOWS SAX FRANCISCO. Oct. 19. Fimnle ceremonies before a -With great gath -r'ng on platform and street, the cornen..nnfl of tne new home of ,ne Independent Order of Odd Fellows, at Seventh and Market streets, was laid yesterday by George F. Hudson, j Grand Master pro tern. A parade in which f000 men and women, repre senting lodges in all parts of the state, took part, preceding the exer-, cisea. I W. W. Watson. Past Grand Mas ter of the state of California, de- llvered the oration of the day. After recalling the old Odd Fellows' hall, which was completely destroyed by the fire of 1906, the speaker praised , the enterprise of the order in build-1 Ing the present structure. He said that the progressiveness of the Odd Fellows was due to their high priii- i ciples and democracy. j "We do not want a man for what he has. but for what he is," said Mr. j Watson. "Every calling is repre-, sen ted in our order and it Is the rubbing of elbows of the men or dif ferent vocations that makes us so strong." The new structure, with furnish ings, will cost more than $200,000. It will be a handsome, five-story building of nnle pressed brick and cream-colored terra cotta. The main ejitrance is to be on Seventh street. Marble and Orpgon slashed pine Is the scheme of internal decoration. The former building was erected In 1SSI. On January 20th or this year the present structure was com menced. It will be finished In the early months of 1910. Frightful Fate Averts!.

("IIU'l'S ItltlXGS IH'TTOX KKLATI VKS TOGKTHEK. While Ringllng Bros.' circus was III Roseburg there occurred a meeting between the famous Dulton family and James Duttun, a well-known farmer of Edenbower. When of tender age, scarcely In their teens, the father of the Dutton family in the Ringllng circus, and J u mes Dutton, of Edenbower, ran away from home In England and joined the Ringllng circus. After a few years of circus life, our present farmer Button was found by Ills parents and taken home, the other button remaining with the circus, where he reared his family, the old est one bearing the name of James. When the Ringllng circus came to Rosebtirg there was a pleasant meet- fame, the father of the famous Dut ton family having passed away. j Mr. Dutton was a bare-back rider and trapese performer in those early days. When we see this aged farmer driving his slow team of work horses, and picture him in the long ago, a leading spirit in the great circus, Iclad in gay attire and riding a spirited 'horse In a ring or doing the daring ' feats of a trapese performer we are led to say, that truly truth is stranger than fiction.

Olio Prisoner Detained ft Days Over Sentence Another Held 15 DayN On No Clinrire. Sheriff Fenton faces a couple of damage suits as a sequel to the re lease from the county jail today of Harry T. Brehmer and Ned Dulley. This Is the declaration of Attorneys F. G. Mlcelll and John T. Long, who this afternoon, on habeas corpus pro ceedings, secured an order from Judge J. W. Hamilton directing the release of Dulley from jail, where he had been a prisoner for 15 days past. Brehmer was the petttionor for the writ of habeas corpus. Upon request telephoned from Coob county. Sheriff Fenton arrested Dul- ley on the 4th of this moil1 th, when he arrived here on tho stage. Infor mation was that Dulley was wanted on a charge of jumping a board bill nt Coqullle. A couple of days be forehand, Sheriff Gage, of Coos coun ty, passed through Roseburg1 on his way to St.-Anthony, Idaho, to got a bad check artlHt, and Sheriff Fenton planned to hold Dulley In this city until Gage arrived hero enroute on his return from Idaho. Gage has not yet put In appearance for some reason unexplained. In tho mean time no warrant of arrest or official charge against Dulley has been placed In Fenton's hands. Both should have been done, according to the statute, within five days after he was taken Into custody. Assistant District Attorney E. B. Hermann, who represented the state In tho pro ceedings, hnd no defense to off or, and Judgo Hamilton promptly or dered that Dulley be given his liberty. Brehmer, a transient typewriter repnlrer, who was adjudged guilty of jumping a board bill at the Hcrrlng tnn House, hi this city, was fined $20 by Justice Long IS days ago, and In default was committed to the county jail for 10 days. At tho end of 10 days, Brehmer was not re- i leased. Instead he was kept behind bars for ft days more. Sheriff Fen ton did not appear In court to ex plain why this was done, but At torney Mlcelll Is of the opinion that Fenton suspected him of being wauted elsewhere and was holding him until he could get definite In formation. Attorney Ml colt I stated this after noon that damage suits would he filed against Sheriff Fenton tomor row in behalf of Dulley and Brehmer, each In the sum of $5,000, for al leged falso Imprisonment. Dulley comes of a prominent family, his father having been treasurer of Coos county for many yenrs. Upon leav ing Coqullle he had an agreement with n relative, so his attorneys laim, to settlo the board bill duo at Coqullle, and upon being arrested here and Informed that the bill was still due offered to pay tho amount over to the sheriff then nnd there.
