'There's a Hywyon rough-housing cur saioon," snouted a breathless white' coated waiter rushing up to Policeman Wolf. The policeman investigated. "lou cah't arrest me!" shouted the Prince. "I'm a member of Congress ana exempt unaer the Constitution from arrest" "TheJurVU settle the constitution,' declared Wolf. Became the Prince was quarreling with Charles Clarke, a col lector, the policeman took both. Ka lanianaole bucked all the way to the etation-house. Clarke deposited $5 and was released. The same offer was made to Prince Cupid. It was spu-ned. ''I can't be arrested," he exclaimed dramatically." "The cell for yours then," and the dooiman took him back. After the doom an had made one or two trips pack to five the Prince water an offer was made to allow him to communicate with bis, friends. "My aireet is an outrage, and I'm go ing to stav here" the Prince answered. When the Black Maria called to take the prisoners to the police court this morning Prince Cupid was bundled in with the others. On his arrival he was put in the dock. The Prince was too angry to be tried, and his case was postponed until Friday. William Hayward, an attorney, had de posited $5 with the clerk of the court without telling the Prince. "You cati go," the bailiff told the Prince. "I'm going to stay here," was the answer." "I can't be arrested." j tie l'rince remained more tnan an hour and then consented to go home, still protesting that he could not be ar rested.

They uoiu a revolver 10 nis ceaa wni e his pockets were gone through and the J28 extracte '. Because of the absence of conceal ment which the bold robbers used, the victim was able to give a good descrip tion to the orlicers, but although they have used duo diligence.so far no arrests have been made. The highwaymen were the traditional long and short'men, the tall one being smooth snaven and the short one wearing a mustache. After the money had been taken from Dickie man's clothes be wae ordered to move on and say nothing.

Three long tables had been sprerd down the center of the ball and plates laid for 250 guests, The menu had been prepared by C. W. Kelly and J. W Cole, two men who know as well as any body can how to lay out a spread fit for the Giidson an occasion like this, Clara chowder, Boston baked beanB, pickles and olives, ham, ham sandwiches, cel ery and dozens of little side dishes made up the menu with as delightful a bol of punch as the most exacting could re quire.

Dim A Bystera of piping for fire protection, one of the most comolete in anv mann. factory on the Coast, and installed at a cost of $12,000 was last week completed aiiue uregon uitv Manufacturing Com pany's woolen mill in this city. The system is Known as the Grinnell Auto matic Sprinkler Fire Extinguisher, an.1 it is claimed that its installation In the woolen mill makes it impossible for the buildings of the company to be destroy ed by fire. Last summer a disastrous fire, the most extensive occurring here for sever al years, destroyed a large Dortion nf the buildings of the woolen mill. New buildings.replacing the former structures more modern and complete in every way, have been built, and in connection, to guard against a repetition of the damage by fir of lat year, the automatic fire extinguisher has been installed. By its use the insurance companies have given the owners of the mill a reduction in their rates of 40 per cent. By means of this system, pipes vary ing in size from to six inches have oeen placed along the celling through out the buildings of the mill, and at intervals of eight to ten feet thereon are placed vents, with small attachments, so arranged that whenever the heat in their vicinity reaches a temperature of llo (leg, a composition metal sealing the aperatures fuses, letting the water es cape in a sho-ver. A metal cap of peculiar shape distributes the water as widely as p-seible, and each sprinkler will give out 20 gallons of water per minute under a pressure of 100 pounds. This system of pipes is attached to the centrnl city mains by three six-inch con nections, thereby affording sufficient water to supply every sprinkler in the mills shou.d the hres be extensive nough to require it There are 2.100 of these sprinklers in the system just in stalled and about four miles of piping in connection. In the main brick factory building, water pressure is constant Inside the pipes, but in the other buildiners of the mill, where there would be danger rf water, the smaller pipes are kept full of compressed air. Ai soon a-the metal of the sprinkler is melted the air escapes and a valve is tripped, letting in water, which immediately rushes to the point iiuiu wuicu ine air escapea The excellent -vater system which this city has is favorable to such fire protec tion, as there is available about 200 pounds on Main street.
