SCENE OF HOLDUP
(Continued from Page 1.)
(. the best chances lay in surrendering

place in the water beneath the mill,
when "Paddy" Mater rushed in
ahead of Sheriff Mass, and pointiug
a revolver at the young robber, or
dered him to "surrender, you blank-
ety-dash, variously qualified p.erson.
surrender, throw up your hands, or
1 11 pump you full of lead."
Sheriff Mass ordered Maher to on
side, and on his refusal to go Deputy
ier the mill, grasped the redoubt-
threw him to one side. Pareen
thisn came out and surrendered to
- Sheriff Mass.
After Portland newspaper photo
graphers had done their duty the
prisoner and Sheriff Mass started for
Oregon City. The young robber
who later gave his age at somewhere
between 18 and 20 arrived here iu
a pitiful state, being wet and chilled
r by the swift ride. He was given a
change of clothing and locked up in
the. city jail until the evening, when
he was transferred to the county jail
. for the night.

was' recovered on his person. Ths
' other $40 he said he dropped on the
highway, during his pursuit. In his
clothes was also found a keen saw,
which it is believed he supplied him
self with to cut his way from jail in
, case of capture. About his neck, in a
cleverly concealed leather case, wj
a razor, which the officers think ha
intended using as a weapon if cor
nered where there was any chance of
fight. In his pockets was also an
f other razor, which the youth said he
bought.
In accounting for himself the rob
ber said his mother and father had
separated about a year ago, and that
he had then "hit the grit" and gone
. west to California. In San Francisco
b,e said he had worked in a livery
stable for awhile, and then had start
ed northward, beating trains and
working every now and then to get
a little money for lodgings. He said
the last place was in Roseburg, where
he put in two days on a track-lay iug
outfit.
Since leaving Roseburg, according
to his own account, he had been at
Canby, where he declared h,s found
he revolver he used in his crime.
From Canby he had made his way to
Milwaukie, where he hung about wi-h
some hoboes tor a day, and then went
over to the Tualatin valley, where he
spent four days. He said he came
back to Milwaukie Saturday morning.

Officers are inclined to doubt cer
tain parts of his story, and Sheriff
ass is checking up a number of his
statements. The boy stoutly main
tains that he has never bsen in

has a smooth face, with rather a
keen expression, and has brown eyes
and slightly curly hair.
"Paddy Maher, aside from his
"grand-standings'' at the moment of
capture, also put Constable Jack
Frost out of the chase for a few min
u;es. When the cordon was closing
in on Pareen, after Mahor and Cur
tiss had formerly concluded to give
up the hunt, Frost was creeping
through the brush towards the mill,
when soma Milwaukle citizen saw the
brush moving, and yelled to Maher
that "somebody's in there." Maher
promptly brandished his ready re
volver, and Frost, who could see him,
though himself out of sight, decided
it was the part of wisdom to lie close.
He therefor quit his part in the clos
ing operations until Maher had been
pulled off by somebody who knew of
the plan of capture.
Incidentally the robbery caused the
prisoners in the county jail to go hun
gry, as the two sets of keys to the
prison were carried off by the posse,
Sheriff Mass having one set and Jack
Frost the other. During their ab
sence with the T:eys, nobody could get
into the jail to give, the prisoners
their dinner.
WILL SING SUNDAY
Miss Mary Adele Case, who so
greaily pleased the large audience at
the Shively opera house last Wednes
day evening will sing "The Star
Spangled Banner," Sunday evening
at the exercises in the First Metho
dist Episcopal church in celebration
of the victories of Gettysburg and
Vicksburg.
Miss Case's father was a soldier in
tne Union army, and two of her
brothers, who were soldiers in the
Spanish-American war, were among
the first to enter Manila, and were in
the battle of Malabon, where the
Oregon boys won everlasting fame.
She will, therefore, sing with a sym
pathy and love for the old soldiers,
and for the boys of the O. N. G. who
are to be present and take part in the
exercises.
Oscar Woodfin, a young man of
musical gifts and worthy ambition,
will also sing, while the large chorus
choir will come in strong on the old
war songs, and songs of our country,
and swell the melody. Dr. Ford says
he "expects to see one of the greatest
and most enthusiatstic services he
has ever held," and invites the Span
ish-American war veterans and all
old soldiers of the North and the
South, and their friends, and all win
love our country to come and help
to make the service one of the most
memorable of our city.

COUNTY FAIR LIST
SOON TO BE READY
The premium list for the county
fair, which is to be held at Canby, is
now in course of preparation, and will
be published within a fewdays. De
lay in composing the lis!; has been
caused by doubt on the part of the
fair directors as to the sum they
would receive from the state. This
sum has now been determined, and
work on . the premium list is under
way.
A new departure in prizes will be
made this year, in the offering of four
prizes, of $50, $25, $15 and $10 for
the best community and grange ex
hibits. Duplicate prizes will be put
up for both varieties of exhibits. In
addition to this it has been determin
ed that any exhibitor taking part in
a grange or community exhibit may
also enter his own individual display
for competition in the general exhibi
tion. Heretofore this has been im
possible, all community exhibits be
ing judged as a whole.
The fair directors feel that the
new plan will not only be mors just
to exhibitors, but believe that it will
also stimulate community exhibits,
and will result in the several sections
of the county going to greater care
in producing a display of their re
sources. This year's fair is expected
to surpasss all former ones in the
wealth and quality of exhibitions.
SPECIAL SCHOOL
LEVY IS NEEDED
There will be a special school meet
ing at the court house Monday even
ing at half past seven, at which auth
ority will be sought by the school di
rectors to levy a special tax to pro
vide for the immediate oenstruction
of a two-room addition to the Barclay
building. This structure is now over
taxed, and the addition is a matter of
necessity.
In planning for it the school direc
tors feel that they will be providing
room for increases in attendance for
some time to come, as well as caring
for present needs. It is hoped that
the addition can be constructed this
summer, and be ready for occupancy
in the autumn.
It is also the desire of the directors
to provide for payment of interest up
on the bond issue. This must be met
by a levy according to law. The
matter of providing for the expenses
of the district will also ba taken up,
and the levy for th3 coming year
fixed.
BRIDGE CAVED IN
-BY STOMP PULLER
A government stump-pulling out-fit
weighing some 20 tons or more, cav
ed in what is known as the Baker's
ferry bridge on the south Clackamas
valley road Friday, putting that struc
ture out of commission, and provid
ing a problem for government men to
raise the heavy apparatus from the
ravine some 20 or 30 feet below the
level of the road. The county com
missioners looked over the wreck of
the bridge Saturday, and took stepa
for its repair.
Owing to the general closing down
of country telephones on the Fourth,
notifications of the failure of the
bridge was not received in time for
the road supervisor to post barricade
notices along the road leading to the
bridge, and as a result many farmers
drove to the structure before finding
out that the road was impassible; and
then had to make a long detour to
continue on their way. Barricade no
tices have now been posted at consid
erable distance above the structure,
so as to prevent continuance of this
inconvenience.

due to the fact that much of the

split or . otherwise damaged by the
wet weather.

from $1.50 to $L75 per crate, and are
