OLDS St KING Special Friday and Saturday Richardson's Pure Linen Ladies' Handkerchiefs Worth 35c At 19c Each The Richardson handkerchiefs we ssll are pure linen, fine linen, and nothing but linen, and handkerchiefs should never be made of anything1 else. Linen in the best absorbent, the most antisep tic. Trashes the whitest, wears the long est, and docs not stain like other hand kerchief fibers. And Richardson's linens are the best selected of linen yarns. "We want to introduce these handkerchiefs to every Portland woman, and for spe cial Introduction choose one of the very fine plain hemstitched numbers that is worth 3oc each, which we offer today and tomorrow at 19c each. It Is a qual ity to be proud of; comes In three widths of hems, and Is the ideal of a. thoroughly satisfactory handkerchief. Berry Time In almost every home, means more dishes.

If you wear MOUNT HOOD NEGLIGEE SHIRTS You need never be uncertain. They are the result of many years of expe rience and conscientious effort to produce a perfect negligee shirt at a reasonable price. Try them once and you'll be a firm friend of the Mount Hood brand. They're made of a variety of materials, both light and heavy, and of high-grade workmanship. No other negli gee shirt in the market at like prices are their equals from any point of view. Prices befiln at 50c WAS IT A TRAGEDY? SCREAMS AXD SHOTS HEARD AT WILLAMETTE HEIGHTS. Police Investigated the 3Iyterr by Lantern Light, bat Failed to Find Any Clew. Screams of murder. Immediately fol lowed by two pistol shots In Willamette Heights Park late last evening created a furor of excitement In that vicinity, but careful Investigation in the darkness failed to reveal a tragedy. The screams and shots were heard by Henry Knudsen, conductor on car No. 7L which was stand ing at the end of the Washington and Twenty-third-street line at the time; and also by L. It. Carter and his son, who live at the end of the etreet-car track. Charley Kn'idsen. conductor on No. 75, remembers to have hauled out to the park a rather comely young woman and a ewarthy, dark-complexioned man about 10 minutes beioro the screams and shots were heard. The woman asked when the next car returned to the city, and also the time of the evening, which was about 8 P.M. While the conductor was eating his lunch he saw the couple sitting on an old bench near the end of the track, but when he was ready to return with the car, they had gone, and he remarked: "The birds have flown." While this con ductor's brother, Henry, was waiting with his car a few minutes later, the shots and scream startled the neighborhood, being quite distinct. A shrill voice apparently in .great distress or grave terror called for help, and cried. "Murder!" The shots followed almost before the cries had ceased to sound. Then nothing more was heard. When the matter was reported to the Police Station four patrolmen and Detec tives Cordano and Welner hurried to the park, accompanied by County Physician H. F. McKay. Mr. Carter had rushed from his residence around below where the sounds proceeded from, and guarded the St. Helens road, by which he thought the criminal, if there was one, must es cape. The ofllcer3 and residents there about scoured through the brush with lan terns and Improvised lights, but traces of no one could be found. The location is wild and rough, and it is possible that murder and suicide are concealed by the brush where night searchers could not find them. It Is also possible that the woman was murdered and the man es caped. The officers believe, however, that the whole matter Is a hoax perpe trated by some stupidly foolish people. The woman has been seen to ride out to tho end of the line before at late hours, but the man accompanying her this time 13 a strangei to the street-car men. He is described as wearing a black hat, not well dressed, and having a white handkerchief tied around his neck. HAVE INFORMATION READY Fonr Census Inquiries "Sot Always Ensily Ansvrcred. In another column of today's Oregonlan will be found a list of inquiries which the census enumerators, who begin work this morning, are required to put to the head of every household In Portland. Under the law. enumeration must be made et the domicile of the person enumerated, and not at his or her place of buslnese. Under these condition the enumerators working principally during business hours the question must generally be put to the lady of the house. In many cases the wife will not be able to answer questions 14 and 15. viz., the birthplace of her hus band's father and mother. It, therefore, would bo a good plan for the husband to leave this Information with the wife, so that she might give It to the enumerators in their rounds. Thla hint will also apply, to questions 16. 17, IS and 20. It should be borne in mind by those who may consider the enumerator too Inquis itive, that he Is required, under his oath of office, to get the Information prescribed by the consus department, and thero should be ready and cheerful response to the questions propounded. 1 United States Trial jHry.

Three boys were consigned to the Re form School by Judge Hennessy yester day, for larceny. Robert Garretson, 18 years old, had pleaded guilty to stealing a bicycle from A. Greenbaum and selling it tor $5 to a second-hand dealer. Gar retson had been employed In the bottling department of a brewery and said he was drunk when he took the wheel. Frank Dunn, 13 years old. pleaded guilty to having stolen three colls of cop per wire from G. W. Holcombe. Both Garretson and Dunn were taken to Salem yesterday afternoon. The third of the trio was Otto Brown, 10 years old, who at first denied the theft of a bag of shot from In front of Allen & Lewis's store, but on being confronted with the evidence, pleaded guilty. At first he stoutly maintained that he had picked the bag up In the street, after It had fallen off a wagon. The lad has proved h'mself perfectly Irresponsible, not seem ing to know the difference between truth and falsehood. His mother was on hand to plead for him. and asked the Judge what right he had to send her boy to the Reform School. Judge Hennessy said: . "It's too late to talk about It now." Otto, however, on account of his youth, has been turned over to the Boys' and Glfle Aid Society. Many forms of nervous debility in men yield to the use of Carter's Little Liver Pills.
