What la said to be the first of sev
eral 'similar arrests, has resulted In
the payment of a JBO fine to the state
by a man brought .before Justice dis
pensers for indecent conduct Ju room
ing houses. A Greek named .Stall
Pappas, was arrested Saturday by
Chief of Police McLachlen on' a charge
of , Immoral conduct In counui
with his relations to a girl named
Marie Brown originally of Walla' Wal1
la but more recently of Meacham The
upshot of the arrest was that Pappas
was fined 150. ..'
Charges of white slavery could not
be placed against him as the , girl
was brought here from. Meacham
within the state say officials and
therefore the' act is not specifically
described as white slavery. They were
arrested in the Oregon hotel where the
police say Pappas brought the girl.
The officers also have Information to
the effect that the Greek mistreated
her, beating her cruelly. "We are on
the trall of several Individuals who are
doing the same sort of a thing and
they are not all Greeks either," said
Chief McLachlen, in giving out the
facts ef the case. "We are going to
put a stop to this immoral and lnde-J
cent practice if we do nothing else
and more arrests can be expect
shortly.: Rooming houses are contln-(
unlly being peBtered with men bent
on similar errands and the most pains-,
taking precaution does not always pre-.
vent men running the gauntlet with
women' brought here from other sec
tions of the state," continued the chief

Saturday afternoon Chief of Police
McLachlen arrested a man named
Clarence Tatrell alias iMohler, who is
wanted in Portland on a white slavery
charge. He is accused of having im
ported a girl from Montana. Tatrell
it Is said formerly lived in Wallowa
county and was a deputy sheriff there
'at one time if the information obtained
, here is correct. The arrest was made
iSaturday. The deputy United States
Marshal arrived to take the fellow In
tow yesterday. .,'. '
! New Rules Enforced.
I For the first time in many- years, if
' not in history, a prisoner arrested In
La Grande on a federal charge has
been arrnlnged before the commlsBlon-
er at Baker,' Instead of Pendleton. ' It
has always been the practice of mar
shals to stop at Pendleton and ar
raign prisoners there, thus avoiding
the extra expense and loss of time In
going to Baker. This is brought about
through the enforcement of the law
which prescribes a prisoner arrested
on a federal charge shall be arraigned
at the nearest commissioner. ' Baker
hauriens to be nearer, hence the new
rule.
Information received by local police
officers say that a man named Ken
nedy and a former La Grande, girl,
Miss Remly, are in the tolls of the law
at Portland on white slavery charges.;

It would require five ordinary kerosene lamps to furnish the same .

It costs .00375 cents an hour to burn a 25 watt electric light the
equivalent of five kerosene lamps. Kerosene sells at 25 cents a
gallon. Figure it out yoursolf just , how much more it will cost
you to produce a given volume of light with kerosene than with
