KOSEBURG
Umpqua Claims Ross Rogers,
of SutiiiTlin, Age 15
WADES OFF BAR INTO HOLE
Tree Branch Breaks When Companion
Holds It Oat to Him and He
Sinks in Current
The treacherous Umpqua River
Claimed another life Sunday after
noon, when Ross Rogers, 15-year-old
son of R. W. Rogers, of Sntherlin,
was drowned near the Cloake ferry.
2V4 miles west of Roseburg. The:
accident occurred at 4 o'clock, and
the body was recovered two hours
later by a party of searchers headed
by Coroner N. T. Jewett.
The boy was in bathing with
Marlon Parsons, a lad or the sumo
age, who is employed as a messenger
at the local agency of the W astern
Union Telegraph Co. Accompanying
them to the river were six other boys,
but none of these ventured into the
water.
Extending into the river for a dis
tance of about 30 feet from the bank
is a large sand bar, terminating at a
deep hole swept by n strong current.
Into this hole the Rogers hoy
.plunged unwittingly. Able to swim
but little, he began struggling fran
tically In the deep wnter to Bave
himself. The Parsons boy, who can
not swim, In an effort to save his
companion, held out to him the small
branch of a tree. This snapped In
twain when Rogers grasped one end
of it. and ho immediately sank, ex
hausted, to his death. When found,
the body lay in water 14 feet deep.
Young Rogers was employed as an
errand boy at the North Side Pinning
Mill, in North Rr;.biirg, and boarded
at the home of jV F. Kester, a clerk
in the Roseburg postofflce. Besides
his parents, he leaves a brother, Eu
gene Rogers, living in Pennsylvania.
The remains were shipped today
to Sutherlln, where the funeral will
be held at 10 o'clock tomorrow
morning, with services conducted by
Rev. J. Rhys Evans. Interment will
follow In the I. O. O. F. cemetery
near Oakland.
Two Drowned nt Portland.
PORTLAND, Or., Aug. 1. The
wninmMtA TItver alnlmed two vic
tims from among the hundreds of '
bathers who lined either bank yes-1
terday. A coincidence of the acci-!
dents was that both were young men. '
23 vears old, and both were drowned
at the same hour, 4 o'clock.
Samuel R. Davidson, a senior at
the University of Oregon, of the class
of 1911, who has been employed at
the city engineer's office during his
vacation, was drowned near Dundy
bathhouse, foot of Ellsworth street.
He was bathing with some friends,
frolllcklng about a float a few hund
red feet from the house. When mak
ing the return from the boat to the
bathhouse on his swim he suddenly
sank.
Orvllle Tennis, a delivery driver,
was drowned near the Multnomah
box factory.

Embezzlement C'hurfje Preferred or
Mrs. Clements Husband -Wife
Accuses Relative.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 31.
Deputy Sheriff Mortenson, of Douglas
county, Oregon, Is on his way here
with requisition papers for Frederick
M. McDonald, charged with em
bezzlement. Mr. McDonald and Mrs.
Jessie Clements, both of Glendale,
Or., were arrested by detectives Fri
day night in a Fourth street hotel.
The two-were examined yesterday
at the police station and the woman,
who has an 8-year-old girl and a 5-year-old
boy with her, was released..
McDonald, however, was held. The
charge against him Is sworn to by
Mrs. Clements' husband, who says
that McDonald swindled him out of
money when conducting a collection
agency In Glendale, and then ran
away with his wife.
McDonald and Mrs. Clements, al
though living at the same hotel, oc
cupied different apartments. Doth
assert that the charge against Mc
Donald Is trumped up. Mrs. Clem
ents lays all the trouble to her
brother-in-law, who, she says, court
ed her and was repulsed. She says
that the charge against McDonald
I was prompted by revenge on the part
of her hrother-in-law and jealousy
on the part of her husband.
McDonald has retained an attor
ney and says that he will fight ex
tradition. Mrs. Clements says she
came to San Francisco for her health
and did not elope with McDonald, as
her husband charges.
OREtiON TRAGEDIES.
As a result of a shooting affair at
the Slletz Indian reservation, nine
miles north of Toledo, Saturday,
three Indians are dead two mur
dered and one a suicide. The dead
are Mrs. Martha Metcalf, age
John Spencer, oge 41; and Robert
Felix, age 39. According to reports
Mrs. Metcalf, who was divorced from
her husband, has been living with
Felix. It is said that Spencer, who
Is a married man, has also been pay
ing her attention. Felix, on going
over to Spencer's place, found the
Metcalf woman and Spencer there
together, whereupon he pulled out
his gun and shot them both. The
murderer then shot and killed him
self.
rinlnir to the linme nf lilu divorced
wife at Hlllsboro, Saturday, Thomas
Caudle, a laborer aged about 40
years, committed suicide by drinking
carbolic acid.
William Earl, the 9-years-old son
cf Mr. and Mrs. William Miller, of
Dallas, was accidentally Bhot and
killed Saturday while eugaged in
tnrget practice with his father and
older brother, Harold. The father
and two sons were testing a new
.22-caIlbre rihe. The older brother
had the gun In his hand when the
victim of the unfortunate accident
was watching directly In front of
the gun, not knowing that there waB
a load In the rifle. Harold pulled the
trigger. The bullet entered the little
brother's breast Just above the heart
and perforated the lungs.
It has been a number of years
since Night Pollcemnn Tom Williams
did any footracing or high jumping,
but he showed Sundny night that he
had lost none of his boyhood agility
or athletic prowess, when he made
a successful chase after one of a trio
of negroes whom he had previously
arrested on the railroad track, near
Douglas street, for making too much
noise. Starting to jail with the three
"blackbirds," Williams got as far
as the S. P. passenger depot with
them, when one of them suddenly
turned about and dashed across the
vacant tract of land on the west
side of the track to Oak street,
where he leaped over the fence en
closing the residence property occu
pied by Engineer Ed. Kinney. Though
the distance is 250 yards and the
advantage of the start and younger
age were with the fleeing man. Wil
liams dashed after the fugitive,
vaulted over the fence with the
nlmbleness of a boy and overtook his
man. Gentle taps with tho Mincer's
night stick subdued the negro and he
went quietly to jail with his two cum
panions, who had discreetly awaited
at the depot until the chose was
over. In Recorder Orcutt's court this
morning, the negroes gafe I heir
names as Dan Cunningham. Peter
Burns and Henry Robb. The plead
gulltv to a charge of disorderly con
duct and were fined $.1 each. It
was expected this afternoon that the
fines would he paid by the Llarn ft

NORTHWESTERN FRUIT I I
EXCHANGE ORGANIZED.
Ily Growers of Oregon, WaNlfTngton
and Idaho, With Headquarters
at Portland,
SEATTLE, July 29. The North
western Fruit exchange was organ
ized here today for the purpose of
handling the fruit crops of the three
states of Oregon, Washington and
Idaho on a co-operative basis. The
meeting was attended by the leading
fruitgrowers of all the principal fruit
sections of the Pacific Northwest.
The association will establish head
quarters Immediately at Portland,
Oregon, and branch agencies will be
placed at once in all of the principal
fruit market centers In the United
States and In foreign countries. The
following officers were elected: Presi
dent, R. H Parsons, Medford; vice
presidents. H. Moran, Wenatchee; W.
N. Irish, North Yakima; treasurer
and general manager, W. F. Gwln,
Eagle Point. In addition to these
officers the following growers were
elected directors: H. M. Gilbert, Top
penish, Freemont Wood, Boise, W.
M. Richards, North Yakima, A. C.
Randall, Talent, and John Stevens,
former general manager of the New
York Fruit Company; C,R. Dorland
was elected secretary
The meeting was a representative
one, all the leading fruitgrowing dis
tricts in the three states being rep
resented. The necessity for such an
orgnlzation was apparent to all the
delegates and arises from difficulties
experienced In marketing the crop
from the various fruit growing dis
tricts because of a lack of co-operation
often resulting In the glutting of
one market, while at another point
tnere might be a strong demand.
The organization will endeavor to
benefit the grower in many ways,
such as the securing of more benefi
cial freight rates and better facilities
for securing reliable crop reports.
Its main mission, however, will be
to concern itself with the marketing
of the produce of the orchards and
to emancipate the growers from their
present condition, which in many In
stances puts them at the mercy of
the commission men.

copy of the paper. One of these
copies was recently sent to a leading
lawyer In Seattle. Wnsh., containing
a short article referring to the man
ner In which the negro porter ac

says, "I wish to congratulate the
people of Roseburg on the dignified
law-abiding manner in which they
have conducted the preliminary ex

cused of the crime of assault. Your
citizens have thus shown them
selves to be of the best typo of
American citizenry, and worthy all
the enomlums that the historians
have heaped upon them while de
scribing the men and women who
came in wagons, contending with In

It Is to he hoped that Roseburg's

Miss Leneve did not appear In court,
having suffered a nervous collapse.
Efforts are being made to persuade
Miss Leneve to Incriminate Crlppen,
who is accused of murdering his wife.
The girl was astounded when told
that Crlppen was suspected of mur

becomo ono of the most notable in

nn attractive womnn, and an officer
of the Music Hull Artists' Guild, of
London. With the Crlppen pair at
Hillilrnp Crescent lived Miss Leneve,
a young typist of French birth, who
served as amanuensis to Dr. Crlppen.
Mrs. Crlppen disappeared from her
accustomed activities last February.
To her friends Dr. Crlppen explained
that she had gone to California.
Later a notice appeared in the Lon
don papers saying she had died in
California. But Belle Elmore's for
mer actresB friends In London and '
America began to doubt. Their In
quiries led to the belief that Mrs.
Crlppen had not died In California
and suspicions were communicated to
the police. The doctor flnnlly ad
mitted that his wife had not gone to
California, but asserted that she had
run away as a result of family bick
erings. The snuvity of Crlppen led the
police to give additional credit to his
statement, nnd they 'took his word
of honor thnt he would remain sub
ject to call until his word could be -verified.
This was on July 12.
Discovery Proves Ghastly.
Tho next day Dr. Crlppen and Miss
Leneve disappeared, leaving no trace
of their whereabouts. The houso was
hastily searched and In the cellar a
misplaced hrlck led to a ghastly dis
covery. Beneath the 'floor was
found the battered body of a human
being. It had been placed in quick ..
lime and was burned beyond recog
nition. Even the sex was Indeter
minable by tho doctors at first, al
though the body wns finally estab
lished as that of a woman.
Immediately n search of almoRt
world-wide scope began, but Dr.
Crlppen .and his typist nppenred to
have vanished completely. s
Captain Kendnll Makes Discovery.
The first real clue came on the
sailing of the Canadian Pacific steam
er Montrose from Antwerp on July
