FIRST VISIT FOR 22 YEARS Abel Georfce, Pioneer of 1845, Re calls the Early Days. Abel George, a pioneer of 1S45. and his wife, who have been visiting Portland and other places for about a week past, left yesterday for their home at Fern dale. "Wash. Abel George Is a cousin" of Judge M. C. George, and has many old time friends in Portland who were much pleased to meet him. It was his first visit here in 22 years, and he arranged it so as to be here during the pioneer and In dian War Veterans' gatherings. Mr. George Is 7S years of age, his wife Is 75. and they have been married 55 years. He says that the first time he was in Port land -was In February, 1S4C. when he passed through on his way from Oregon City to the Cascades. He only saw one house, but cannot now place its exact lo cation. Mr. George says he opened the first wagon road across the Cascade Moun tains, which has since become known "as the Barlow r6ute. In the party were General Joel Palmer. Colonel James Tay lor. OrvlUe Rlsley, Judge L. A. Bice, trudge A. A. Skinner, William Buffum and pthers. Mr. George settled in Yamhill County, 'and afterwards lived In Rogue River Valley. He fought the Rogue River Indians, Shastas. Klamaths and Modocs, In command of companies. Alluding to the Heppner disaster, the old pioneer said It recalled to him a very painful memory, 'the loss of four of his own chil dren pv drowning in a flood on Decem ber 2. 186L Mr. George lived at that time with his family on an Island, near Cor valUs. The water in the Upper Willam ette rose suddenly In the night, and Mr. George and family took to the barn on higher ground for safety. In the morning they tried to escape in a small boat. In tending to reach a ferry., but found it had been carried away. The boat was carried under the limb of an alder tree, drowning two of the children. The other two children were drowned in view of people on the river bank, who were pow erless to save them. These persons, how ever, succeeded later on In assisting Mr. George and his wife to dry land. THEIR TROUBLE BEGINS. Marie "Ware and Horace MeKInley "Will Face Preliminary Conrt. The preliminary hearing of Marie L. Ware and Horace G. MeKInley on a charge of conspiracy to defraud tho Gov ernment, will take place today before United States Commissioner J. A. Sladen, and the principals in the widely discussed case may be bound over to appear before the Grand Jury in October. A formidable array of witnesses, which includes In- CHIEFTAIN OF -Flympton Kelly, the oldest sur viving eon of "Father" Clinton Kelly, pioneer of 164$. Is chieftain of the Kelly Clan, which will hold Its .fifth annual reunion Saturday at the beautiful home of Dr. Richmond Kelly, also a. eon of the pioneer and a well-known Portland cltiren. The. chieftain, physically and In other ways, ha the rugged characteristics of his sire. He lives on his farm on the Section Line road, five miles east of Portland. It Is one of tho best-cultivated farms In the state, and. although -Mr. Kelly Is 78 years of age. he may be seen In the Spring following the plow with the vigor displayed by younger men. He has very decided opinions, and is often regarded as eccentric. The other rurvlvlng children of "Father" Kelly are; Penumbra Kelly. Mrs. Sarah M. Kern. Dr. Richmond Kelly. Mrs. Martin Judy, Mrs. Laura Turner, Mrs. John Shaver, all of whom, ex cept Mrs. Turner, will attend the re union. In all. the descendants num ber over 100. scattered In Oregon. Washington and California, but the main portion live In Portland and vicinity. While the reunion is essen tially a family affair, jb. few Inti mate friends receive invitations. At the gathering the records are read, -marriages and deaths are announced, omcers are elected, committees appointed, reminiscences are given, and between 12 and 1 o'clock the annual banquet is spread, usually under the shelter of trees. spector A. R. Greene, who worked up the case against the accused parties; Clyde D. Lloyd, Guy Huff. John A. Wesco, W. S. Chrisman. J. J. Jennings, Ben Lurch, R. M. Veatch. Frank Mclntlre and Edwin Hobson will testify for the Gov ernment, and It Is said that much of the testimony will be of a highly sensational character. The course which will be pur sued by the defense Is not known, but Attorney F. P. Mays, who represents Miss Ware and MeKInley, will make a hard fight for his clients. S. A. D. Puter, who Is joined as a defendant. Is said to bo At Minneapolis, but hls'arrest has not yet been made. The Government has another' card up its sleeve in the form of a "John Doe" warrant, which has not yet been served and about which there Is much speculation. Just who will be presented with this bouquet Is not known, and United States Attorney Hall may decide not to have It served, provided he can make out his case without Its use. About the first of June Miss Ware and MeKInley were arrested, charged with con spiring, together with Puter and the un known "Doe." to. fraudulently obtain title to Government lands. The method by which they are said to have proceeded was to forge the names of fictitious entrymen to homestead applications and file the same at the Rosebury land office. Sev eral forgeries are specifically charged in the complaint of Attorney Hall, and it is said that a very ugly showing will be made. Another Important witness for the state will be Edward B. Llnnen, inspector of the General Land Office, who has been In vestigating charges of fraud against the Register and Receiver of the United States Land OHice at LakeVIew. Mr. Lln nen has been delayed at Lakeview, but Is expected to reach here Saturday. TRYING 10 CATCH THEM Police Making- Frantic Efforts to Find the Elnnlve Ili-rliTraymen. A mistake In a telegram sent by Chief of Police Hunt yesterday allowed two men thought to have been connected with the recent Portland hold-ups to escape. An effort Is being made to cause their re arrest, but last night no clew to the course taken by the men after they were released at The Dalles had been obtained. The arrest was made by City Marshal Wood. He saw the two men get off of the train and recognized one of them as an ex-convict. He regarded them with suspicion and placed them under arrest. When searched, they were found to be armed with revolvers, and concealed in their hata. were black masks. Sand bags and other things used by thugs In the hold-up business were found upon their person. They were tried on a charge of. carrying concealed weapons, and, after being fined $10 each, were allowed their liberty. As soon as Chief Hunt learned that the men were arrested, he wired to The Dalles to hold them until an officer could arrive to bring them back to Portland. By some mistake the message was not received In time, and In the afternoon the Chief received word that the men had been allowed to go. but had started la the direction of this city. Steps were taken at once to apprehend them, but In quiry proved that they had not come in this direction. Chief Hunt Is now making a strong effort to locate the men. "There is no proof against them," said he. "but the conditions are suspicious enough to warrant a closer investiga tion." The police were busy yesterday running down highwaymen clews, but none of them developed valuable Information re garding the murderers or any of the high waymen. G. B. Cotton was arrested for being a suspicious person, hut was re leased last night. He was very Indig nant at his arrest. "How much have you been working?" asked the Chief. "I have been here two months, and have not worked," said the mart. "And you have been hanging round a saloon all of the time," said the Chief. "Yes," said he. "but I have friends that know me. and that know I am all right." "The officer did Just right In arresting you." said the Chief. "In times like this, when there are hold-ups and robber ies on every hand, your actions are sus picious enough to need investigation."

TION FOR SEW TRIAL. Allege Judge Made Errors In In. Jitrnctlons Given to Jury Case May Go to Supreme Conrt. A motion for a new trial was filed yes terday by Attorney J. F. Watts in the .Martin V. Leas la case, on various grounds. It Is alleged that the court erred In per mitting Pauline Leasla to testify against the prisoner, and also in allowing her to testify concerning the contents of a let ter; further, that the court erred in de fining the term malice in instructions giv en to the Jury, and Instructing the jury how malice might be implied. The court Is said to have done wrong in instructing the Jury that it might return a verdict of murder In the second degree, and In re ceiving such a verdict from the Jury. Leasla will not be sentenced until the motion for a hew trial has been disposed of. His attorneys will appeal the case to the Supreme Court If the costs are paid by Leasli's relatives. "WON'T PAY FOR SIDEWALK. Mm. Xnrlfa J. Failing Sayx Old Im provement Are .Good EnonRh. Suit to restrain the sale of property for a delinquent sidewalk was commenced In the State Circuit Court yesterday by Mrs. THE KELLY CLAN I'lympton Kelly. Xarifa J.- Falling against tho City' of Portland. She owns property at the southeast corner of Fifth and Washington streets, adjoining which a cement side walk was recently laid. The complaint calls attention to the ordinance passed by the Council August 6. 1&02. providing for laying of artificial stone, cement and other sidewalks, which also provides that where the depth of a fill to be made for each 50 feet front exceeds an average of two feet, the sidewalk shall be of wood. In this case it Is averred that tho depression was three to six feet in depth. The build ings on the property are old. and Mrs. Falling states that she has contemplated replacing them wRhln two or three years with a permanent structure, which will necessitate the digging of a cellar and tho removal of the sidewalk and fills. For this reaeon she alleges thnt the laying of the cement walks Is a detriment to her In stead of a benefit. She further says the cost of the work, $475. was excessive, and asks the court t6 enjoin the city authori ties from selling her property in order to realize funds to satisfy the assessment. Thomas N. Strong appears as attorney In the case. OX TRIAL FOR ADULTERY. John EKKlexton Faces a Jury In State Circuit Court. The trial of John Eggleston on a charge of adultery was commenced before Judge Sears and a jury yesterday, and will bo concluded today. The defendant's wife.

Flor ence Ciine. has run away. Some of the witnesses testified that Eggleston intro duced her as hi3 wife, and Professor Bet tlnger said he. gave her piano lessons at Eggleston's request, supposing all the time she was his wife. A. L. Clark, subpoenaed as a witness, failed to appear in court, land a bench warrant was Issued for his arrest. O'REILLY IS MULCTED. Jnrj- Rctnrnn Verdict for $2000 Dnm ageii Agnlnst Him. A verdict for the plaintiff for $2000 was returned by the jury yesterday in the suit of Frederick Macdonald, adminis trator of the estate of his son, Maurice Macdonald, deceased, vs. Drake C. O'Reil ly.

McGinn, as at torney for Macdonald. and C. E. S. Wood for the defense. The trial was before Judge Frazer. NOT NEARLY SO MUCH. In Suit for ?lO,00O Damages Jury Allows Only IT.'O. In the suit of August Wagner against the Southern Pacific Company the Jury returned a verdict in favor of Wagner for $250. He sued for $10,000 damages for personal injuries caused by a collision between two handcars near Yoncalln.

Wlslar Morris Addresses Clergy and Laity. The annual convention of the diocese of Oregon met last evening In Trinity Chapel. The Episcopal clergy of the state were in attendance, as well as many prominent members of Trinity Church and the other' Episcopal churches of the city. The convention will be continued today.

Two safecrackers were, interrupted last night while attempting to open a large safe in tho new mill on the northwest corner of Fourth and Hoyt streets. They had neatly planned their escape, how ever, and a patrol wagon loaded with policemen was not sufficient to bring them to the police station. According to the statement made by the night watchman there was JSOO in the safe, and the bur glars would have made a good haul If they had not been Interrupted. The thieves were discovered shortly be fore midnight by the night watchman. As ho was .going his rounds he heard a slight noise from within. His trained ear caught it In an instant, and he stopped to listen. The grating of steel against steel was plainly audible, and an occa sional gentle Jap showed that a drill was being used. He peeped Into the house cautiously and saw a dim light burning near the safe. In the dim light he could see that there were at least two men, and he did not wish to Interrupt them by himself. Slipping quickly across the 6treet. he telephoned to the police sta tion that he had. caught two burglars in the act of cracking a safe, and would like to have assistance at once. Police men Welch, Goltz, Phones, Gassert and Hogleboom jumped Into the patrol wagon and drove with all haste to the mill and planned a neat capture. They were too late, however, for the robbers had be come alarmed and fled. "I saw them as they ran," said the night watchman. "There were two of them, and they each had on a black mask." It was thought that they would not be able to escape from the building, except through the door which they must have entered, but" the robbers knew the build ing better than the officers, and made an escape quickly. "They must have gone down the cel lar." said one. The cellar was partly filled with water, but a scum of wood and - shavings concealed the water, and one policeman plunged knee-deep Into the chilly bath. Another suggested the roof. He. soon found himself on the. outside of the building, and on the ground, rie at once concluded that the thieves had, escaped by this route, and so reported to his fellow sleuths. For over an hour the policemen hunted about the building and searched the neighborhood. ' but they failed to find any burglars. A careful examination of the premises was made, but nothing was missing, ex cept a box of silverware. It Is thought that the silverware must have been taken out and cached before the work on the safe was commenced. By the safe was evidence jot the work that had been started. A partly burned candle was lying close to one corner. It had been burning, but they had extin guished It at the first alarm. A hammer of steel was also found near the safe, and on the safe was a small piece of hard steel that looked like a piece of a key. WORK FOR MISSIONS. Woman's Auxiliary of Episcopal Church Holds Sessions. The Oregon branch of the Woman's Auxiliary held Its annual meeting yester day in St. David's Church, corner East Twelfth and Belmont streets. Mrs. Hill, state president; presided, and there was a large attendance of representatives from the churches" of the diocese. After holy communion, the Right Bev. James B. Funston. D. D., bishop of the district of Bolsev Idho, delivered on able- ser mon. Luncheon was served by the women of St. David's Church. In the parish-house, on East Morrison street.

Van Waters, D. D., rector of St. David's Church, delivered an address of welcome. In the course of which he emphasized the necessity for cultivating the missionary spirit. He said that the real progress of the church was dependent on its missionary spirit. He paid a high tribute to the Women's Aux iliary of the Episcopal churches, and de clared that in missionary work the auxil iaries were really not the branch, but the main organization. Following came roll call, when most of the churches of the diocese answered by representatives. Reports were then read from officers of the various auxiliaries, showing work in all lines. Including help for churches, missions and hospitals. The reports were considered satisfactory. Mrs. Oaks read a report of the "Church Periodical Society." which had distributed reading matter where needed. Mrs. Belle J. Sellwood. secretary of the auxiliary, read an exhaustive report on the work and finances of the year. Bishop Morris, who had been an Inter ested spectator during the session, re sponded to a call with a short address. He said he would Introduce another man, the one who was the bishop of Idaho, which was first under the Jurisdiction of Bishop Scott, of Portland. In the '50s, and who had to travel 500 miles by boat and stage to reach that state. Bishop Morris at the close Introduced Rev. Mr. Funston, who told of the work of the Woman's Auxiliary In Idaho. He said that its Im portant achievement was the establish ment, of a very fine hospital at Boise. Rev. Clarence H.
