Caught in the act ot trying to past
raised post office money orders, with a
quantity ot materials in their po ckets to
to be need in erasing the figures from ,
the original orders, with acids and a
complete outfit with which they plied
their calling, William Mills, George
Willis and Hugh Carpenter were arrest-
fid here Saturday night and lodged in
jail on the charge ot raising post office
ruaney orders, v
Their guilt was so plain as to be glar
ing. 1 heir capture was due to the vigi
lance of Tom P. Randal), poet master.
About ten days ago Randall received
word from the department that money
order raisers were working in this part
of the country and warning him to keep
Bharp lookout for the crooks. On
Thanksgiving Day he notified nearly
every business house in Oregon (Jay of
the work being done by the crooks and
asked them to keep a lookout and if any
one tried to cash money orders to notify
the police.
On Saturday the three men showed
up. ihey kept etui until after uie poBt
office had closed for the day and then
started out to work their graft. They
at once began to run up against ob-'
etructions. Warned beforehand the
merchants refused to cash toe orders,
and a remark let fall by one of the mer
chants put the crooks on their guard.
About 8 o'clock they entered the saloon
of George Young on Main staeet, and a
little later Officers Nobhtt and Shaw
found them there and placed them un
der arrest.
When arres'ed they had a complete
outfit for raising money orders, includ
ing acids and stamps on them.
The manner in which they work is
simple. Buying a money order iu one
town, Portland, for example, they
would then come to Oregon City and
raise the order to what ever amount
they desired, go tg a store, purchase a
small bill of goods and present the order
in payment. Nine times out of ten if
the store keeper had not been previously
warned he would have cashed the order.
It is Baid that the men have been oper
ating this graft for several months past
and have gotten away with a considera
ble amount of money.
On Monday United States Deputy
Marshall Roberts came to Oregon City
and took the three men . to Portland,
where tbey will be tried In the United
States Court.

The following interview with Father
Hillebrand which appeared In the Eve
ning Telegram being of very great local
interest ia reproduced in full :
"Notwithstanding his exalted posi
tion as Pope of the Catholic church,
Pius X is one of the most Democratic
and kind of all the Popes the church
has ever Jiad," Baid the Rev. Father
Hillebrand, pastor of St. John's Catho
lic church, ia this city, who returned
Wednesday evening from a five months'
trip to Europe. "While in Rome I was
granted an audience with him, and had
occasion to notice this characteristic.
About 140 persons were granted audi
ence with him at the time I saw him.
Among this number was an old Italian
priest, who knelt and wanted to kiss his
foot, but Pius raised him, saying: "I
am not so as you.'
"On another occasion about 15,000
people thronged the Vatican gardens on
a visit to the Pope, but instead of being
borne through them in his chair, he
walked among them in very democratic
fashion. My impressionb of him are that
he is a most affable, simple and kind
man. While before him I addressed
him in Latin, telling him where I came
from, and at the mention of my far-off
home his face lighted up with interest.
He also bestowed upon me the apostolic
benediction, and granted me permis
sion to invoke the same upon my friends
and relatives, and upon my congrega
tion in this city. He also presented me
with a medal bearing a picture of his
face upon oho side and upon the other
the face of the blessed Virgin."
W hile away Father Hil lebrantl viBit-
ed his old home in Briton, Westphalia,
Germany, where his father still lives at
the advanced age of 87 years A photo
graph of him shows that he is stilt hale
and hearty. He is the great grand
father of about 20 ch'ildren. Father
Hillebrand states that he was astonished
by the great strides taken by Germany
in all lines of advancement since he was
last in that country, 13 yea's ago. In
his own town at that time there was
only one railroad, with the station four
miles from the city, but today the place
lathe center of four great railroad sys
tems In all respects commerce, trans
portation facilities and all, Germany has
made great strides of late years While
in Euiope Father Hillebrand visited
Holland, Belgium, Italy and Austria, as
well as covering about all Germany.
Among the beautiful cities that he vts
iied were Milan, Lucerne, Vienna, Mu
nich, Innsbruck, in the Tyrol, and
Rome. - :
He was most Impressed with Rome,
fi which he soent ten days, but be
states that to do justice to the place and
to see all the sights for travelers would
require about eix months. He found
that although in some .respects Rome
is an ancient city, in othe'g it ia eseenti-
ally modern, it having many tall build
ings built very mucli as are our mouern
American - structures. These average
five aud six stories in height. Electric
cars alto rnn up and down the streets as
in American cities. The ancient na
ture of the city is disclosed, however,
by ),he fact that the streets are very nar
row. He found the people of the city
most polite. On the average about 10,
000 toarists from different parts of the
world visit the Eternal City every day
in the year. One hears all language
snnken on the streets
The Vatican was visited, and Father
Hillebrand was much impressed with
the beauty of the classical statuary aud
manv works of art found there. Uie
Vatican library be describes as a huge
affair, it being about 300 meters in
length and 60 meters wide. Along both
sides and in the center are piles upon
piles of books and manuscripts. The
museum and art gallery are filled with
masterDieces bv famouB painters.
The ruins of Rome were found to be a
fascinating study. The ancient palaces
and temples point oit the ancient splen
dor of the citv. and above all the ruins
of the Roman Forum, where the Senate
used to meet, and the ancient Coliseum,
where the gladiators fought, ate still, af
ter the laoee of so many centuries, in a
fairly good state of preservation. These
ruins were all most interesting, and
Father Hillebrand says that the Roman
palaces built during the Middle Ages
were constructed of material taken from
be ruins of the . ancient Roman build
tng.
Aboveall sights in Home in which
Father Hillebrcnd was most interested
were the churches, which are, in fact
filled with treasures of art. The church
of Maria Mai ggiori, St. Peter's dome
and. above all, the incomparable Sistine
Chapel, decorated by the almost divine
hand of Raphael, are indescribable in
their beauty and value from the arlistlc
pointof view.
The beautiful lakes of Lucerne were
visited, and their beauty made a deep
impression on Father Hillebrand. The
cenery of the Rhine was also viewed,
bnt. strange as it mav seem, the scenes
tlong the Grand Canon of the Colorado
iverin Arizona, teen while crossing
he American Continent, is held by him
o be grander and more impressive than
anything he saw in Europe in the way
of natural wonders. The immensity of
the coloring ha describes as wonder
ful., Faeber Hillebrand tells the tale of all
travelers that l.e is glad to be back to
his home again, and his congregation
are pleaded to have him return to them.
A number met him at the train Wednes
day evening, and it is probable that a
reception will be given him by the mem
bers if his church to welcome him
home.

The main feature of the meeting of
Warner Grange on Saturday was the fair
which was strictly a neighborhood affair.
The display was not large, nor could it
be what it might have been bad the fair
been held earlier. Earnest efforts will
be make by the neighborhood next year
to make such an exhibit of its products
as it is fully capable of making, so that it
will be a matter or pride to every mem
ber of Warner Grange. To that end the
favor will be asked of using the camp
meeting grounds and the fair will be
held a month earlier. Live stock will
then be Bhown. The exhibit of potatoes
emphasized the strong point of the Ne
Era farmers, the growing of epude.
The fair was on the whole a sort of
informal, hurried affair, and the awards
of the three judges, Mrs. E. M. Haines,
Judge T. F. Ryan and I. LeMahieu,

Oregon City's
Hew Post Office
Oregon City's new post office is one of
the handsomest, most commodious and
most convenient in the state. TheOdd
fellows have spared no expense in fit
ting up the new place and patting in new
fixtures. Everything is spick, span new.
There are more tbau 600 combination
boxes, opening just the same as a combi
nation safe opens, and a man who has a
box does not have to leave without his
mail nomattar if he does forget his key.
There are no call boxes, and the clerks
will be relieved Irom much of the labor
entailed by delivering call bcx mail. Of
the half a thousand boxei nearly all
have been taken. Besides the regula
tion combination boxes, which are fully
twice the size of the regulation govern
ments boxes which were in the old ollico.
there are enough extra large boxes for
people who get a very heavy mall, such
as banks, newspapers, etc.
The new post office was ready tor oc
cupancy Tuesday, and Tuesday night
the office was moved into its new quar
ters. There was pleiity i f work for the
postmaster and his force of clerks when
it came to showing each person the com
bination to his box and teaching htm
to work the combination. The .combi
nation, in the main, are very simple,
however, and it does not take 'vOne of
average intelligence long to '.earn 'them.
