ROSEBURG, OREGON, FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 8, 1900. .No. 214. Review, AWFOL GRILLING Borne by lime Stcinhcil in llie French Court PERSIA AGAIN TERRORIZED Dr. Cook lias Another Sworn Endow meat ol His Having Climb' d Ml. McKiDley Special to the Evening Review. PARIS, Nov. ft. Under n most heartless examination, suffering noth ing to be withheld, and showing no signs of mercy for her Bex, Madame Steinheil was literally submitted to the third degree In public today. She displayed bravery such as few women possess; now pleading for mercy, now shrieking fiercely, this wonderful woman has won the pity of thf French nation. The sentiment here tofore against her has turned In her favor. Lefebvre, who yesterday con fessed being the murderer, when cross-examined in prison collapsed and said his confession was a He, but was made through sympathy for the defendant. A thorough examination will be made despite this denial. Tht woman Is being tried under the Napoleonic code which presumes her guilty until her Innocence is proved The actions of the court indicate this presumption tothe extreme. The public generally expects an acquittal not because they think her inno cent, but because of pity in the fight Pivhleh she Is making against over whelming odds. Exhausted but triumphant. Mine. Steinheil stumbled from the witness stand this afternoon, after having stood tho most merciless, browbeat ing ever administered to a woman in court in recent times. She has not made a single damaging admission during the terrible ordpnl. Lynching Averted. GASSAWAY, YV. Va.. Nov. E. Scott Lewis and A. Johnson, negroes, accused of assaulting Mrs. Albert Rochold, were taken from jail today under guard of two companies of militia and removed toSutton for trials A mob of over two thousand gathered at the jail last night and this was duplicated' this morning. Tho soldiers and officers were jeered as the slinking negroes were led away between lines of muskets. i More Terrors In Persia. ' TEHERAN, Nov. 5. Tribesmen of Ardebil are besieging the Russian consulate, where the Persian gov ernor, city officials, clergymen and foreigners have taken refuge. Ac cording to reports received here to day, the consulate at Ardehil is beiiiK defended by -a small force of Cos sacks who are short of ammunition. The tribesmen are demanding the surrender of tho consulate and are threatening to bum the city and massacre every one of the inhabi tants. Scenes of wildest horror are beiner enacted throughout the town already, the assailants looting houses and outraging women. Suspect Is Released. EL PASO, Tex., Nov. 5. Senorltn Andrea Vlllereal, sister of Theresa Vlllereal. recently released from pris on at Torreon, Mexico, was dis charged today from a store where she was employed, because she was assisting the Mexican liberals Ramon Lomell, the Mexican consul ate, visited the proprietor of the store last nlEht and today she was ais- cmissed. Her friends believe the ac tion Is the first step on the part of the Mexican government to Imprison her. Socialists are raisings funds to defend her should her arrest occur on American soil.

Jobs May Not be Worth Over $150 a Month by Next June Terms j Expire In January. There will expire next January the terms of the following Blx Federal olhce holders In Oregon: Colonel Davld M. Dunne, Collector of inter- nal Revenue; C. J. Reed, United States Marshal; A. S. Dresser and George W. Hlbee, Register and Re- ceiver respectively of the Portland Land Ollice; II. L. Eddy and J. M. Lawrence, Register and Receiver, respectively, of the Roseburg Land Office. As to who will get the plums the Portland Oregonlan speculates In this manner: It Is suspected that Christian Srtiuebel, of Oregon City, and J. I Frank Slnnott, of this city, will pluck two of the Land Office plums. As to who will get the other and more re- munerative offices of Collector of In- ternal Revenue and United States Marshal, all Is guess work. Slnnjott was president of the Taft League of , Itepubllcnn Clubs in this state during the last Presidential campaign and always has supported the man from whom he now expects recognition. It is also said that Bourne, having- tailed to land Sihuebel In the olhce of United States Attorney, will seek to appease the oilicial longing of the Clackamas county man by assigning him to a land office Job. Applicants for these different Fed ral tohs. however, mleht rtn well tn nquire Into what the various oIHces pny. The Impression that a Federal . Job is a sinecure with a good fat salary attached does not hold good "e "eaiin ana marine nospuai aer uowadays. As a matter of fact only vice. two of the six lolm about to Wnnie available pay anvthlng like an at- tractive salarv. These two odious are Collector of Internal Revenue and united States Marshal, each of which is worth about $4,000 annually. As! .0 the Land Olhce jobs they are only ,ciea oi oioi, oui are capame oi ue worth mono venr maximum, nnrt coming vertible scourges among the the time has arrived when they no anger will yield $200 a month. It is learned from a man who Is acquainted with the work In the Portland Land Ollice and the future ossibllitles of the office, that the lositlons of Register and Receiver, .vhich for years have netted the maxt- ;mim salary of $3000 a year, will not be worth more than $150 a month at the end of the fiscal year, June 30 ext.

Every , lodge of Knights of Pythias In Ore-1 son will be visited by the chief ofll - cers of the order in the state, no mat- j ter how Bmall the lodge or how re-, ote the location,, before the next grand lodge session In June, 1910. : At the session of tne grand lodge at Pendleton last June a plan was per- fected whereby the grand chancellor will visit half of the lodges and the grand vice-chancellor the other half ach year. So many new lodges have heen Instituted that It has become al- most Impossible for one man to visit nil during his term. In many cases, however, both of tho two leading , Ulcers will visit the lodges together and a number of other grand officers 'v 1 1 1 accompany them frequently. Each lodge is preparing for a big time when the official visit Is re- elved. Grand Vice-Chancellor Yor- an will soon visit the lodges at Grants Pass, Medford, Ashland and Klamath Falls, accompanied by Grand Keeper or Records nnd Seal Stlnson, and the grand chancellor will go to Roseburg and then come northward, visiting all of the numerous lodges in the Wil lamette Valley.

Speaker at Conference Says It's More Ahu'iniiig than "Hookworm," In the South, COLUMBIA, S. C, Nov. 4. Not alone corn and ordinary products of food made of that cereal, but the dis- tilled spirits of that grain, corn "licker," plays an important part In the cause of the disease pellagra. That was declared at the second day's session of the National confer- ence on pellagra by more than one distinguished physician. I There Is a growing conviction, ac- cording to several speakers, that pellagra already is attacking horses, i cows ana nogs as wen as Human De- Ings. "While we regard Mr. Rockefel- ler's princely gift for the eradication oi me nooKworm ai us irue value, we say $1,000,000 for the battle against the disease of pellagra would be far more valuable." Thus spoke E. J. Watson, South Carolina's Commissioner of Agrlcul- "ire, in aaaressing mo National uon- lorence. Dr. George C. Zeller, superinten dent of the State Hospital for the Insane, Peoria, 111., believed the country is threatened with a national scourge. The discovery of pellagra in me reoria nospuai was maae Aug ust last, since wheu numerous cases have been diagnosed as pellagra, many of the patients having died.

District Boundary ltuurd Turns Down lVlltlim to Divide District Election Tomorrow. By a vote of 3 to 1, the Douglas County School District Boundary Board, consisting of three members of the County Court and the County School Superintendent, this after noon denied a petition, Btgned by 10 taxpayers, asking tor the division of School District No. 39, at Fir Grove. The petitioners wanted the S. P. R. R. track to be the dividing line, with Its present boundaries on the weBt side to constitute one district and the boundaries on the east side, adjoinlug the new town of Sutherlln, to form the other. The present schoolhouse site In the district iB in the western portion, but ou account of the predom- nating number of voters at Suther lln, this will undoubtedly be trans ferred to that place as the result of an election to be held tomorrow. In deciding the case as it now stands the court was guided by the conven ience of the children attending the school. At present pupilB from Sutherlln are obliged to wnlk about a mile and a quarter, whereas, if the new Bite of the school is established at Sutherlln some of tho pupils living In tho western portion would have to travel three miles. It Is quite likely that there will be two Bchoot- houses, the presont one to be re tained. This is a matter, however, thnt the board will not act upon until the resident taxpayers take the ini tiative. Another act by the board this af ternoon was to revlBe tho boundaries of two adjoining districts at Rice 1111, taking 100 acres of land out of No. 103 and annexing It to No. 28. ThiB change Is In keeping with tho original intention when the district lines were drawn and is done at this time upon a petition signed by tho taxpayors or bom districts.
