PREFERS AMERICAN HOME Goes to Fatherland and Runs Foul of Military Author ities Asks Aid of Odd Fellows. "I'm a peach," writes Henry Pietsch who was formerly a butcher in Es tacada from Hamburg, Germany. "I've got no sense, and if some good man will get me back to your country I'll work for him ail the rest of my life for board and lodging ana clothes." Pietsch conducted a butcher busi ness in Estacada up to last fall .when he went East and then to Germany. Since then he has had more trouble with the German officals .on account of the military laws than he considers pleasant. In fact, after living in a chance for a business college here such as one can find in very few other towns. The fact that there is no high school here, makeg it Imporative that there be some teaching beyond the grade schools. We are going to en large our quarters, and put in more equipment, and under Miss Hurl bert's competent Instruction I feel confident that the college has a bril liant future ahead of it." CAN GO TO WORK AGAIN. The boats loaded with fuel for the Willamette Pulp and Paper company and the Crown Pulp and Paper com pany have arrived here and discharge 3d their cargoes. This was welcome news to a large number of workmen employed in the different mills as they had anticipated a snut-down. The Willamette company's tanks have a capacity of 10,000 barrels of oil and it is the company s intention to nave them filled as quickly as possible in order to be able to cope with situa tions similar to the one which has just passed when they were compelled to suspend operations on account of the lack of fuel. free country, the ways and customs b ...t RGems to me that there is a ot a country unuer stringent iiiiiiibi j laws do not appeal to him in the least. A few days after he landed he was ar rested for not reporting his arrival ta ttle police, and then it was found that he had left Germany without doing military service. He was sentenced to thirty days in jail, and during his confinement was compelled to at tend church services. It happened that the church he attended was the' one in which he was christened, and something in the sermon tickled his risibilities, and he laughed out. For this he was thrown Into a dungeon and kept on bread and water for six days and given no bed to sleep on. On his release from the dungeon he fell sick and was put in a hospital, where served the remainder of his sentence. Aiter he got out of the hospital he heard a band playing some 'American airs one day, and carried away with his enthusiasm for his adopted coun try, let out a cheer. This displeased the authorities, and he was re-arrested and brought up to show why he had not paid his hospital bill. Since then the troubles of Pietsch have come thick and fast. He is at present working in a bake shop for his board and lodging. "I'm too slow for wages, they tell me," he writes, "but I have to work harder for board and lodging than I did at home for $90 a month. I don't know what I'm going to do for clothes. I've got some American colthes that will be good for three months yet, but af ter that I don't know what I shall do. You bet I don't want any German clothes." Pietsch wrote to the Odd Feliows lodee of Estacada, of which he Is a member, asking them to see If they could find out anything about his nat uralization. He Is not quite sure about it, but thinks that he is an American citizen. Judge Ryan was at the court house Tuesday trying to see if he could find anything to help the unfortunate .brother, and discov ered on the records a transfer of some property in Estacada by Pietsch, which bears out a statement of his in his letter. About the naturalization, however, unless he has his papers, which he says he has lost, It .will be a hard matter to establish his citizen ship. He says he has voted for local candidadtes, and for President Roose velt. The case will probably be referred to the lodge of Odd Fellows in Ham burg to look after. CHANGES ITS MANAGEMENT Allen Business College Takes In New ' artner. A change in the management of the Allen Business College of this city has just been' made public. Mr. E. O. Al len, who has successfully conducted the local Institution for the past four years, has purchased a half-interest in the Rose City Business college of Portland, and will remove to that city to take up his work there. Mr. W. W. Williams, who owns a half Interest In the Rose City Business college, will be in Oregon City two days of the week to look after affairs of the Allen college, an Interest hi which he has purchased from Mr. Allen. Miss Ada Hurlbert, wno is well liked by. the students will continue her work here, having her powers extended, and a chance to increase her executive abil ity. The college Is at present In a flourishing condition, there beine In the day and night schools together about thirty students. The ill health of Mr. Allen made It impossible for him to push its policy aggressively, or to widen its scope as there was oppor tunity, and Mr. Williams thinks there Is a chance for a larger business col lege for Oregon City. COUNTY TREASURER BETTER. John C, Paddock, the treasurer of Clackamas county is slowly recover ing from a Bevere attack of the grip. He has been absent from his post for the past week on account of the prevalent malady, and while feeling much better, is not yet able to be at the court house to attend his duties. A VALUABLE LESSON.
