Cleeton, ot Tort land, has recently been experleuciug some uncertainties of Judicial Ute, brought about by an act of the 1913 ! session ot the legislature, which ! legislated htm out of his job ae ! county Judge and made him a circuit I Judge, empowering him to handle all probato matters of that county The constitutionality ot the act was re ! cently questioned, and in order to get Judge Cleton definitely located ed In a Judicial sense, ruling by the supreme court was necessary This opinion was written by Justice Frank A. Moore, and given out on October 24, the gist ot which abol ishes department six oft he circuit court ot Multnomah county, which Judge Cleeton has presided over tor nearly two years, holds that portion of the act valid which created board of county commissioners for Multnomah county, and extending the term ot office as county Judgo from four to six years. Hence, Judge Cleeton will remain as county Judge until January 1, 1917, having for his duties only the disposition of all probate matters. An excerpt from Justice Moore's opinion is given be low, as being ot general Interest throughout the state: "It is conceded that the provl- ' slons ot section S of chapter 378 of ot the General Laws of Oregon of 1913, which undertook to abolish the office ot county Judge of Mult nomah County was void," said the court in stating that Judge Cleeton was county Judge. 'Notwithstand ing the county Judge ot that county was, by such act, attempted to be appointed a circuit Judge, as he never resigned, he remained in of flee as the de Jure county judge of that county. It appears that Judge Cleeton was duly elected county judge of Multnomah county, Nov ember 8, 1910, at which time the organle act ot Oregon was amended making the term of all judges of all courts in this state six years. This amendment was ratified and he was elected when the polls closed on the evening oft he day of the election As the choice of such county judge and the approval ot the amendment of section 1 of article 7 ot the tun damental law occurred simultane ously, that amended organic act was In force when Judge Cleeton war elected and his term of office Is nec essarily six years from the first Monday in January, 1911. "Judge Cleeton being thus the le gitimate county judge of Multno mah county, all orders, judgment and decrees made, given or rendered by him since he assumed the duties of that office are valid, and binding, so far as the right to hear and de termine matters coming before him In probate and guardianship pro codings are concerned."

MUlington, Civil War vet oran and one of two Portland resi dents who took part In the running down of John Wilkes Ilooth, Presl dent Lincoln's assassin, died this morning at the home of his son, Joseph E. Milllngton, 570 Sumner street, aftor an Illness of throe years of cancer. He was 70 years old. Milllngton and E. Paraduy, of 4317 East Sixty-third streot, were members of Company H, Sixteenth New York Cavalry, when Ilooth. on the night ot April 14, 1865, shot President Lincoln In Ford's theatre. They were ordered with the rest of the company, to Washington, as military escort at the funeral. V.mi days later this company was sent for and placed at the service of the Washington chief of detectives. They boarded the steamer John S. Ide that afternoon and went down the Potomac river, leaving the boat that night about 10 o'clock at Aqula Creek. Their hunt for Booth wai. continued all that nlitht. and th next day went to tho direction of Port Royal. It was learned that a Confodomin officer named Captain Jott had been seen with a soldier sunnoaml in h wounded. They were reported to be heading for Bowling Green, and a hunt was then made for them there, as Jett had a sweetheart living In the town. Jett was discovered hidden In hotel, and by threats was Indureil to lead the party to a farmhouse near there where he had left Booth. Arriving there, the occunants of the house denied anv Vnnwt,.,i of Booth's presence, but the house and barn were surrounded. A Con federate soldier came from the barn, acknowledging that Booth was eon. cealed there with David Horold, a confederate officer. The party talked to Booth. wh refused to surrender, and asked that he be given a chance to fight his pur suers, one at a time. This was de- nted, and he then requested that Herold be allowed to leave the barn refusing to surrendor.hlmself. This was granted, and soon nftor. ward the building was set on fir In the light Sergeant Boston Cor- bett. gottlng a good glimpse of Booth, fired through the crank ami shot him through the neck In almost the same spot in which the martvrt president was fatally wounded. Mr. Milllngton is survived hv a widow, Mary Milllngton, and three sons.John W. Milllngton. ot this city; George K. Milllngton, of Sell wood, and James W. Milllngton, of Vancouver, Wash. With Mrs. Mil llngton he came to Portland l years ago. Mr. Milllngton was born in New York. 1 t - ...... .;. .,, .!. ... , giiniJm-j wm A ' 7 M R.
