MUUDEItElt CAUGHT
Oorge Upton Awful Crime of
Ten Yearn Agr.
Captured In Portland Last Kulur.
day A Colo ml) la County
Criminal.
George Upton, who has been wanted
for murder In Columbia county for more
than ten years, was arrested in Port
land last Saturday and the next day was
identified by Sheriff Itice of Bt. Helens,
who when he entered the prisoner's cell
at the city jail said:
"Well, George, I ee the? bare got
you," was the sheriff's salutation.
"I am sorry to ssy they have," was
the surly response.
"I don't think we will let you get
away this lime," continued Mr. Kite.
I am going to land you in your old
quarters in the Multnomah county Jail,
but will not take you out nntil you are
wanted for trial."
The patrol wagon was ran oat and Up
ton, under a heavy guard, was taken to
the county jtil. A atop was made on
the way and the prisoner's picture was
taken for the rogue's gallery. It is safe
to ay that, barring death, Upton will
be where the Columbia county authori
ties can lay their bands on him, when
they want him for trial.
The crime for which Upton is wanted
was committed about ten years ago, and
was the outgrowth ot the intimacy of
lilmiielfand two others with the same
woman. After Upton bad been aaay
for some time he returned one morning,
entered the house snd stated he bad
come to kill the whole outfit and pro
ceeded to pour a volley from a well-
loaded revolver. The woman and the
two men were seated at the breakfast
table when he entered. His first two
hots took deadly effect on an old gentle-
man.the original hosband of tbe woman.
He then opened fire on the second man
and the first bullet severed his lower
sw, felling him to the floor. The
woman thoroughly frightened by tins
time, fled out of the house and ran for
her life, the murderer thinking he bad
killed both men turned bis attention to
the woman and emptied his revolver at
ter mil bout efiect. He stopped tore-
load bis weapon but discovered that the
main spring was broken. He went
bark to the house with the woman and
found his second victim in a badly
wounded condition,
Upton then left the scene and traveled
several miles for a physician and re
turned with him about the middle of the
night. While the physician dressed the
wounds of the injured man Upton
busied himself in washing and laying
out the dead one, and after everything
was arranged he placed his pistol in the
dead man's pocket and made the woman
and the injured man promise that they
would tell the story that the dead man
attempted to kill them and the wounded
man was forced to shoot him. This
promiae being given, Upton left the
piece and was not captured until about
two years ago when he was arrested in
Astoria. During October, 1895, he was
taken from the Multnomah county jail
to St.IIelens for trial, court then being in
session. The day before his trial was to
begin he broke jail and got away. Sime
that time he has been known to have
been in hiding out on the headwaters of
the Molalla in this county, but no ef
fort was made to capture hiiu, in fact
very few persons would care to under
take the job.
At the time Upton was to have been
tried in Columbia county two years ago
that county had gone to the expense of
sendinit to Arizona for two witnesses
the woman and her daughter and these
same witnesses will again be necessary
to make sure of conviction. Upton is a
desperate character and no small amount
ot care will be necessary to salely keep
him.

Of the University of Oregon Glee Club,
which is to appear at Shirely's opera
house on the evening of December 30,
under the auspices of the Presbyterian
church, the Eugene Register Bays: "The
choruses are simply beautiful, the coster
work by W. K. Glen, excellent, and the
piano solos by W. GitTord Nash evi
dences his masterly skill. Prof. I. M.
Glen's baritone solos were always high
ly enjoyed, while Mr. Eaton in his mono
logues and characters were the hit of the
evening. Mr. U. . (j alio way, the
champion intercollegiate orator of 1805,
has at last been secured by the club sb
its impersonator. He is one of the ab
lest ever on an Oregon stage, which will
be evidenced during their tour of the
state two weeks hence.
The register takes great pride and
pleasure in recommending them to tbe
cities of the valley and state fortunate in
securing an entertainment from this glue
club, the jolliest crowd of college fellows
in the state."
The Guard says "tbe glee club gave
about Schillings Best
they are money-back.
Bee Hive is still in full blast.
an entertainment before an enthusiastic
audience of 900 people, while tbe peifect
blending of their voices in the chorus
work was equal to any of the older col
lege glee clubs. Of tbe specialists, Allen
Eaton in his monologues, shows great
genius and is a clever entertainer who
will never fail to capture his audience.-'
Will K. Glen, in his coster songs, was
compelled to answer to repeated demands
for encores, as did Charles V. Galloway '
in his impersonations. Messrs W. Gil
ford Nash and Irving M. Glen are each
a team within themselves, and received'
that hearty approval their work merited..
Tbe cities that the club will visit in
their holiday tour can rest assured that
they will listen to a concert the equal,
and in some points superior to tbe work,
did by tbe Stanford club in their tour
last year."
Chas. V. Galloway, the impersonator
is a son of Judge Galloway, the receiver
of the Oregon City land ottlce.
