Lane Alleged to Have Been
Well Paid for It.
DAMAGES IN SEVERAL CITIES
Xe and HI. Confederate Will Be
Tried tor Perjury In Suit Against
Astoria for ' Injury Due to .
Defective Sidewalk.
ASTORIA, Or.. July VL (Special.)-Dur-Jng
the present week two men are. to be
tried In the Circuit Court here on the
charge of perjury. They are Charles R.
Xane, alias John L. Bock, alias John
lane, and Josler S. Smith, alias George
U, Rodgers, and they are accused of hav
ing testified falsely in a damage sult
brought by Lane under the name of John
I Bock, against the City of Astoria.
In his complaint Bock alleged that on
the evenlpg of August 21, 1300, while walk
ing along Duane street, he fell through a
hole In the planking and fractured his
right knee cap. About a year later he filed
a suit for J5000 damages. The case was
tried twice, the first Jury disagreeing and
the second one giving the plaintiff a Judg
ment in the -sum of $2509.50. Smith testi
fied at the first trial that he was with
Bock at the time he was alleged to have
been injured. About two months ago a
proposition was before the City Council
tfl compromise the claim by the payment
of $2000, when District Attorney Allen re
ceived information to the effect that the
men were frauds. City Attorney Smith
and Sheriff Linville left immediately for
Contra Costa, CaL, where Bock and Smitn
live, and toon secured sufficient evidence
to warrant their arrest on the charge of
perjury.
At the preliminary hearing testimony was
introduced showing tbdt Bock's Injury
was of long standing and that he had
made use of it several times before to se
cure damages from cities, corporations
and individuals. An affidavit was presented
from Thomas Wilkinson, warden of tne
California State Prison at Folspm, and
on It was a photograph easily recognized
as Bock or Lane. It said that C. R. Lane
was sent to the prison from Contra Costa
County on August 19, 1895, for grand lar
ceny, and was discharged on December
18, 1897. In its description of the prisoner
the affidavit said Lane's right kneecap
was badly broken and he walked lame. E.
W. Leus and C. L. Perkins testified that
they had lived near the two defendant
for 12 or 13 years, that Bock's true name
"was Charles R. Lane, that during all this
time he had been lame and that Smith
knew it. They also testified that "about
three years ago Bock or Lane secured
$300 from Mrs. Hlnton, of 647 Folsom
street, San Francisco, by claiming he
was injured on her property. In December,
1S99, he got $1200 from the owner of a
building being erected in San Francisco
and about two years ago he was paid be
tween $SQ and $100 by the San Pablo Street
Hallway Company of ' Oakland for the
same injury.
From other sources it is learned that in
1902 Bock, under the name of John E. B.
Myers, -secured J20Q0 from the City of
Seattle in settlement of a suit brought
to obtain damages for breaking his leg In
that city on August 17, 1900, Just four
days before he was alleged to have been
injured here. It is also alleged that short
ly before coming here he sued Jacobs
Bros., of Portland, on a similar charge
and after that was dropped, he called m
a prominent physician of that city, whose
name the officers will not make public,
to examine his leg preparatory to bringing
a. suit against the City of Portland. The
physician, it is said, pronounced the
break an old one and the scheme was
dropped.
At the preliminary examination Bock
said bis true name was John L. Bock,
but on being arraigned in the Circuit
Court he said it was John Lane and an
order was made directing tEat he be pro
ceeded against under the latter name.
Smith's trial will be commenced on Wed
nesday and Lane'a will follow immediately
afterwards.
HOW MISS BUXTOX WOX.
Her Friends at Forest Grove Held
Card Up Their Sleeve.
FOREST GROVE. Or., July 12. (Spe
cial.) Miss Jessie Buxton has been de
clared Forest Grove's queen for the
woodmens carnival, receiving 1852 out
of 300 votes, cast. Mlas Kate Striblch was
second with 1077. The young ladles were
close friends, but the American fondness
Xor politics led others to take up the
contest and make a hot campaign, whose
outcome was in doubt until decided by
the Portland committee.
Those looking after Miss Buxton's In
terests thought that, as the tickets were
in charge of a warm adherent of the op
position, it would be wisdom not to al
low their plan of campaign to be known
here, so bought a large block of tickets
In Portland and also got advice from there
that money might be deposited in the
ballot box if tickets ran out. The other
side counted on 2&K as being all in the
contest and, when they 'had passed the
thousand mark, ceased their efforts and
did not put in about 570 more which had
been collected and was In the hands of
the Woodmen having charge of the vot
nlg. When the ballot-boxes were opened
low extra tickets appeared in two full
books and two envelopes with (45 in
greenbacks, all bearing the name of Jessie
Buxton. Then everybody got busy, the
$70 which had been raised but not voted
waB offered in evidence, but the judges
barred it out and 'also returned the $15
cash. The question of the two books then
became vital, Miss Buxton being beaten
hy 225 or winning by 775, as they were re
Jected or accepted, and the matter was
referred to headquarters at Portland,
where a decision In her favor was given.
iiotn young ladles, outside of the heavy
voting at the end, received votes which
showed how numerous were their friends
and demonstrated the popularity which led
the committee to choose them as candi
dates. Miss Buxton is a daughter of
Councilman J. S. Buxton and comes of
family Identified with the early history
of Oregon and the Pacific Coast. Her
great grandfather came to the Coast in
1821 In the service of the Hudson's Bay
Cpmpany and her grandfather was an
Oregon pioneer of 1841. a ddnatlon land
claim near town which bears his name
being taken up at that time and still con
tinulng in possession of the family.

XBW COUNTY SEAT FIGHT.
St. Helena and Rainier Xovr Training
for Final Heat.
ST. HELENS, Or., July 12. (Special.)
The campaign is already becoming active
Jnthe county seat removal contest., and a
second special election will be held on
August 3. St. Helens and Rainier are now
the only contestant in the race, Clats
kanle having dropped put of the contest
by reason of having received the lowest
vote at the first special election beld last
Monday. There appears to be a widespread
sentiment in favor of retaining the county
seat at St. Helens, but there will no
doubt be a warm contest. The Chief, the
Clatskanle local paper, came out with a
strong editorial In Friday's Issue, ur
gently advising the voters to cast their
ballots m favor of retaining the Court
house at the present location. That paper
says that the voters can. choose between
St. Helens and good roads on the one
hand, and Rainier and a fancy Court
house and high taxes on the other. It
further says the S2ntlment in that end
of the county is practically unanimous In
favor of using the present surplus of
county funds for the improvement of our
roads, and that the present Courthouse
will answer all purposes until the roads
are placed In better condition.
It is conceded that Rainier Is a live
town, and is about the present center of
population on the river. front, a strong
point In its favor. Many of the Nehalem
people, however, contend that their sec
tion, which now contains the geograph
ical center of the county, may within a
few years be the center of population, and
that the removal of the county seat
should be postponed until they are pre
pared to contest for its location.
If Rainier Is defeated for the location
of the permanent county seat, as provided
in the enabling act passed hy the last
Legislature, It will be on the ground that
th removal at this time will make the
tar burden heavy to bear, and the further
fact that Rainier originated the bill
hlch provided for the expense of two
pecial elections and only four" months'
time In which to remove the county rec
ords and provide suitable buildings for
tneir eaie Keeping.

From Old Contract.
OLYMPIA, Wash.. July 12. (Special.)
The Supreme Court yesterday affirmed
the decision in the case of George Kin

spondent. KInnear was at one time the owner or
lot 2. block 14, Maynard's plat to Seattle,.!

agreement, which was made a covenant
running with the land, that the owners
of either lot might build a wall on the
line dividing the two lots, and, if the
party not building the wall afterwards
made use of it, he should pay half the
cost. A building was afterwards con
structed on lot 2, -with the wall on the
dividing line, the wall costing 874.08.
Subsequent to the agreement, the north
half of lot 3 was sold to Sarah Moses,
lthout reservation of any kind, and she
proceeded to construct a building there,
She made use of the dividing wall, and
Kinhear demanded payment of one-half
the cost thereof. Payment was refused.

of action, and this judgment was today
affirmed.

Fortunately for Preachers in For

Arc Few and Far Between.
At the First- Presbyterian Church yes
terday Dr. J. Hunter Wells delivered an
interesting, address on missionary work In
Corea. in part, he said: ,
"Among the notable enterprises' of the
20th century one of the greatest,- and.
when rightly considered, one of the moat
conspicuous and .successful,- Is -foreign
missions. In a sense, however, foreign
missions ace no longer foreign, for with
the rapid transportation which now en
circles the globe, cables spanning every
ocean and with wireless telegraphy a
practical business "probably soon to In
fluence the whole world, the work In
Thibet and Corea Ja not much further re
moved from the churoh In America which
supports Its missionary, than is the mis.-
slon school,- chapeLjr slum, work of our
large cities.
"Worjd-wide In its operations. It ramifies
Into every portion of the globe and there
are but few places where the banner of
the cross has not been unfurled. There Ja
no venture on earth which enlists so many
persons In its interests when we take
those who contribute to Its; work Into con
sideration. Those who have not looked
Into "its workings can have no idea of the !
magnitude of Its operations, the scope of ,
Its Ideals, or the success of its -ventures.
Far in advance of any explorations or ex
peditions, scientific or otherwise, or for
.business, even in such inaccessible places
as Northern Alaska or the South Sea
Islands, we find the priests of Rome and
the Protestants of the Anglo-Saxon.
"But it is of Corea particularly, with its
population of some 12,000,000, that I have
a few words to say this morning. Located,
as you know, between Japan and China,
below Kamchatka, it is a peninsula seem
ingly swinging between the two countries,
nrhlrh In turn havfi overrun and con
quered It from time to time. Its wars with
Japan have been many and fierce and even
the United States crossed swords with
Corea in 1E57-8. But our little war with
Corea has been forgotten by many and I
have only time to allude to it. It was
brought abput by some American adven
turers wno eauea over irom unma to roo
the graves of certain old Kings who were
upposed to be burled in coffins of gold
The ship was burned and the men all
killed near Pyengyang. And it was only
nine years ago that Japan released Corea
from the yoke of China to which country
It was suzerain up to that time. The
authentic history of Corea deats from 1122,
B. C, about the time King David was
writing the Psalms. Klja, a Chinese
Prince, came over at that time with 5000
men skilled in music, literature, medicine
and philosophy, conquered the scattered
tribes and put the Impress of the civiliza
tion that he knew of on it, which remains.
large.ly unaltered, to -the present day. The
eight kinds of laws he promulgated were:
Thou shalt Kill a murd3rer. 2. Thou
shalt pay for an Injury to another in
grain. 3. Thou shalt bind a thief as
eiave. unou snait pay &uoo nyanjr
(about $330) for freedom. 5. Thou shalt
pass no money in marriage. 6. Thou
shalt not commit adulters'. 7. Thou shalt
have no private feuds. 8. Thou shalt
not lie.
"The frail horsehair hats we see In
Corea today are a survival of the kind
6rdcred by Klja, the Great, to carry out
the seventh law, for It was decreed that
any hats broken in brawls, which were
common, meant the banishment of him
whose hat was broken. Out in Asia things
are often done exactly opposite to the way
tney are aone in America. The carpenter
pulls the plane toward, him; people pass
on tne leit sio which custom holds good
in most countries except America In
Corea it is polite' to keep the hats on and
take the shoes off. Coming down on the
train from Puget Sound, the Corean who
came with us, took his shoes off in the
car, showing, thereby, his idea of polite
ness.
"It was to this country of Corea that
your missionary sailed In 1895. Arriving in
uorea. i touna the 'girl' in the hotel to be
a Chinese boy with a large wen on his
forehead. I enticed him to my room and
removed it, and have had no lack of

that we do not 'appreciate? the situations

marriage to Hausel in Seattle, of his
habits and his actions In leaving her
three weeks ago without money. She
makes .vague and indefinite charges
against "those men In Seattle, and is
convinced her husband was the victim of
foul play.
"I Jcnow, my husband loved me," said
Mrs. Hausel. "and would have sent for
me as soon as he got work. They would
riot let him get work. Those Seattle men
that he fought with killed- him. row
they want me to go back to Seattle, but
will not go.
Mrs. Hausel says she received a letter
from her husband last Friday. He was la
San Francisco and said . that he would
send for her.as soon as he had something
to do.
SAN FRANCISCO. July 121-rrThe detec
tives who have been working upon the
caso fpr the last three days have reached
the conclusion that Joseph Hausel came
to his death by suicide. They have found
two children who were near the spot
whore he died. They passed the place
and,, returning a few minutes later, were
surprised to see his body on the sidewalk.
The trail of blood on the walk and
bloody handkerchief found in his pocket
support the theory that he first stabbed
himself in the neck with his pocket-knife
and then Jumped from the high stairway,
Several witnesses who have been sub-
penaed to attend the inquest will testify
that Hausel was Insane.

London Market Xervous.
LONDON, July 12. The nervousness felt
regarding the political outlook In the.
Balkans and Manchuria tended to restrict
business on the stock market last week.
The advent of flno weather, benefiting
the home railways, and the cheapening of
money are expected, howevor, to- bring
revival of business. American securities
have shown ronewed weakness, partly
due to the reports that Wall street suf
fered heavily through the rise in cotton.
The anticipation of a new issue of cap
ital for New York Central also tended to
depress the market, tho Idea being that
difficulty would bo experienced in raising
the capital necessary to enable American
railroads to cope with their growing
traffic

From Nerv ousness
and Insomnia
Through Dr. Miles'
Nervine. I Use
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills
For Headache.
"I have been troubled greatly wtih sleep
lessness and nervousness for twenty-hre
years. I have never taken Dr. Miles' Nerv
ine steadily for a long time but it never fails
to help me when I do take ir. In addition to
this I can say that my general health is much
better since my occasional use of Jiervipe,
than it was several years ago. I have used
Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills for neuralgia and
nervous headaches and have aljravs
had prompt relief. The headaches usually
occur at intervals in the morning and
by taking a Pain Pill when I feel the head
aches coming on I can prevent the attack
entirely. My husband is also subject to
headaches aad finds the same relief from the
Anti-Pain Pills that I do. We are perfectly
willing that you should use our names' be
cause of the relief we have found in using
Dr. Miles' Remedies." Mrs. W.H.Beakds
ley, Moscow, Idaho.
There is nothing that will so sure'y under
mine the health as sleeplessness. A slight
affection of the nerves is sufficient to bring
about this distressing condition and unless
treatment is at once becun it grows worse
rapidly, bringing about loss pi appetite, in
digestion, a gradual undermining of nerve
force and vitality, until finally the victim
suffers from nervous prostration. Dr. Miles'
Nervine quiets the nerves so that seep may
come and fortifies the nervous system against
the attacks of any or all nervous disorders.
