In Everybody's Mouth You Will See a MAR GUERITE HIGH GRADE HAVANA GIGAR TO CLOSE POOL ROOMS Sheriff Shaver Arrests Mil waukie Gamblers. GAMES ARE CLOSED HERE District Attorney Schubel Or ders All Gambling Stopped In Oregon City Sjlo Only Allowed. Upon information being issued, Sheriff John R. Shaver and Iris deputy went to Milwaukie Saturday after noon and placed und.ir arrest Issac Gratton aud M. G. Nease, managers aud proprietors of the Milvvaukie Country Club, who havo been running a gambliugrsort iu that city. Grattou aud Nease were arraigned before J. W. Graslo, justice of the peace for the Milkwaukio district, and tlioir proli miliary examinations were set for Friday, July 14, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. Defendants were released ou their own recogniz ance, pending their preliminary hear ing. Defendants are charged with the crime of "willfully committing an act, .which grossly disturbs the public peace, openly outrages the'publio de cency, aud is injurious to the public morals." The anthortios brought this charge against the defendants for the reason that the Oregon statutes aud codes do not make pool selling a crime, and think that perhaps under this charge a hotter and more sure case can be made oat. Sheriff Shaver stated that ou enter ing the Country Club's ool aud gam liug rooms he cxpurioued no disadvan tages and that tiie managers willfully and without the slightest resistance consented to the arrest. He further stated that on going through the resort he found no signs of gambling going on, uor did he liud any gambling par aphernalia of any sort. As the statutes do not definitely make poolselling a crime, the Country Club will be allowed to keep its pool rooms open, therefore enabling it to sell its pools without further molesta tion by the county officers until the question comes up again in the courts. The Milwaukie Country Club owns a.tract of land on the north of the city of Milwaukie, upon which it has constructed buildings which are fur nished and fixed up in a suitable man-1 ner for the carrying on of their busi ness. The tract aud buildings arejsur rounded by a high board fence, which hides the interior from the view of the passerby. Ever since the club has been in ex istence, and more particularly since they began to construct their build ings, the residents of Milwaukie have looked on them with a jealous feeling aud have waited in vain for a chance to put them out of business. The arrests made within the last week is expected to be the beginning of a long and tedious fight in the courts. For it will be possib'e that the defendants will spend all efforts available to win out in this event, for they are understood to be heavily backed by men of money. Should the gamblers come out victorious in this suit it will be a great victory that will be recorded in the gambling circles. Acting in conjunction with Deputy District Attorney Schuebl, Sheriff Shaver and Constable Trembath vis ited every saloon and cigar store in this oity Friday night and closed all gambling tight. The proprietors of these resorts were duly notified that gambling of all sorts must cease to re main open and anyone who is caught in the act of violating the orders of the officials would be promptly ar rested and fined. Under such strict orrlaro if. ia rlnnliffnl whether the wnmhlinir element, will attemnt, to V i - I olato the law. Solo is the only game that the officials will tolerate, aud it will bi allowod to run open. CHAUTAUQUA IN SESSION Large Gathering at Gladstone Park.

It is ex pected, however, that this will be made up by the tourists who are visiting the Coast and the Exposition aud who will hardly consider the trip complete without at leaBt ono visit to the tented city. The transportation is giving general satisfaction. The two special steam trains ou the Southern Pacifio running between Oregon City and Portland at frequent intervals are safe and com modious.
