MANY OFFENDERS IN COURT. Judge Deals Mildly With Some; Severely With Others. The usual Monday morning assemblage of vagrants, criminals and Saturday night pleasure-seekers was present to greet Judge Hogue at the Municipal Courtroom yesterday morning. The court, after list ening to the story of most of the last named class, allowed them to go with an admonition to sin no more. Several of the other visitors were not treated so well, arid as a result will be compelled to stay in the County Jail until their cases are examined by the grand Jury. "Bob" Patterson, former North End saloonkeeper and alleged purlolner of the Jewelery of Marie Palm, of Spokane, waived bis preliminary hearing after the complaining witness had given testimony, and was bound over to the grand jury under -53000 bonds. He was unable to secure that amount, and Is now in jail. Patterson was In the saloon business In this city until a few months ago, and it is alleged that while so engaged he drugged and robbed Marie Palm of jewelry to the value of J800. Highway robbery is the charge to which Edward Gee, a teamster, must answer be fore the grand pury. He was arrested a few days ago on this and several other charges, such as impersonating an officer and assaulting a woman and taking a sum of money from her. He waived examina tion on the first charge, and will be sen tenced to the City Jail for the other two this morning. H. -J, Haight, a colored man, was bound over upon a charge of 'assaulting Mary Haley with a knife. His bonds were fixed at J1000 pending the action of the jury. For six months James Howard must stay In the County Jail, because he was found guilty of stealing a bicycle. The case of Charles Nlcols, accused of stealing an automatic fire-extinguisher from a lodging-house at First and Madi son streets, took some little time in the hearing of testimony, but he was finally held to answer to the grand jury. With in five minutes of the theft of the ex tinguishe, last Thursday night, the fact was reported to Sergeant Hogeboom, at the police station, and he in turn In formed Detective Taughn of the particu lars, but did not give a description of the thief. That officer started for the scene of the robbery, and in another five min utes had the offender at the station and the extinguisher in his possession. When Nicols was searched, a razor, sling-shot and other tools of the hold-up man were found concealed about his clothing, and It is thought by the police that they have made, a good catch in landing Nlcols be hind the prison bars.

In. an Introduction -written ioz jUioJroolEjccnstructed- COOS COUNTY TOO It Will Have Its Own Building at the Fair, BUILT OF NATIVE WOODS Structure Will House the Varied Exhibits at Centennial Exposi tion of a Wonderfully Pro ductive Oregon Region. The spirit of progress and enterprise is in the hearts of the people from Coos County, the only county that "will havo a special building to house its exhibit at the coming Centennial. Coos Is to have an edifice that will startle the Eastern ers and not a few of the Westerners. A commltteo from Coos County came to Portland yesterday, went to the Expo sition grounds with the officials and se lected a site for the building, a little to the west of the Administration building and adjoining the Oregon State pavilion, a site among sites, as tho visitor cannot emerge from any of tho buildings in the principal group without staring Into the face of tho building of Coos County. The structure in Itself will be 50x60 feet in size. It will be constructed wholly from materials brought to Portland from Coos County. It will bo constructed by Coos County labor. A Coos County man will overseo the job. The interior of the building will be panel work, walls and ceilings, the panels being constructed from the various woods found In Coos County. Myrtle, yew, fir and chlttum will be used. Inside and outside the building will bo In natural finish. The decorations will be panel work in the various woods. Four fiagstaffs will be from four different woods. The general exhibit of the county will be housed in this building. What Coos has in the way of forestry, coal and fruit will be shown. The products made from the various woods will be mere. Coos County men will catch visitors going and coming, give them a few pointers about the county, and -urge a visit and a permanent residence. Facts indisputable and logic convincing in the extreme will be employed. There will be no need for Inflated, word-pictures of resources that do not exist, for Coos has the real goods in generous proportions, and the words of her enterprising citizens will be backed by facts. Construction of the building will begin within two weeks. The structure will cost completed about 510,000. It is planned to have the building completed, the exhibits Installed and everything in working order by the opening day of the Exposition, on which day the residents of Coos will in vade Portland, capture a slice of the Cen tennial and let the world know that down in a corner of the State of Oregon Is an other district that is to be heard from.

Wright, of The Oregonlan staff, who was accompanied by Mr. Murphy on his trip to the Legislatures, writes as fol lows: "As the traveling companion of Harry Murphy at numerous. State Legislatures, state conventions and similar gatherings, I have been continually reminded (by Mr. Murphy) that his profession as a cartoon ist outranks mine as a writer. He has always asserted that he has talked to a larger audience through his cartoons than I conld command with my most carefully political axtlclu. Ja, suppcxtJLaiout- j5al to all those who have the welfare of young girls at heart. The following letter from Rev. B. E. Utz, of Spokane, to the association shows the need of work on the part of the society: "A member of our church came to me this morning with a matter of Interest to me and & suggestion to you. He first told mo of some observations which ho had taken in a recent trip from the East. Two men, who were evidently procurers, wero attempting to allure some young girls on the train. He was led to believe that that was their especial mission on the train. His suggestion Is that If a detective could watch incoming trains for these men and for their victims, many an innocent girl might bo saved and many a guilty man prosecuted. Ho wanted me to writo your association Inasmuch as he had noticed that you were taking some steps in the matter In protecting the girls coming to your city In a year likely to be full of evil deeds. "Please do not think me presumptuous, I am deeply Interested in tho protection of our innocent girls. I shall not ex pect an answer from you. unless there Is some way In which I may bo of servlco to you." TO HOLD MEETING IN PORTLAND Advertising Men Discuss Proposition at Annual Convention.

The Spring convention will be held In San Jose on April 10. and at that time the question of holding- the annual rnoetlng In Port land In July will be decided. . At the meeting- in Fresno In January an Invitation from tho Lewis and Clark Exposition officials was presented to the advertising men, asking- that they hold their annual convention in Port land. Committees which took tho mat ter under consideration decided to do this providing a suitable membership could be received in this city by that time. Tho representatives now in Port land are at -work on these lines, and there Is every Indication that they will succeed and that the annual conven tion will be acquired for this city, add ing another to the long- list of organ izations that will hold, their annual conventions in Portland during the Centennial.

UTAH MAKES APPROPRIATION Legislature Votes $30,000 for Ex hibit, Laying Aside Grievances. SALT LAKE CITY, Utah, March 6. (Special.)

It will now go to the Governor, who will sign it. Montavilla's School Exhibit. It was found that the large produce map which the Montavilla School intended to prepare for the educational exhibit at the Fair would be too large to go with the general display of the schools, and Principal Rowland caused work to stop on the map. However, arrangements may be made by which the school will finish the map and place It on exhibition at the Fair. The map proposed would have been about 6x8, and would show the produc tions of the different sections of the state. Richard Scott, of the State Com mission, Is of the opinion that it would be an Important and Instructive niece of work, and an effort will be made so that it may oe completed ana displayed. COVER DESIGN of this theory, he cites the fact that, while nice little pink and whlto babies will crow with delight at the sight of one of his pictures, they will not display even pass ing interest In my printed gems of thought, and that even men who cannot read and write- can frequently distinguish one of his "Indians from a member of the Legislature, whereas they would be hopelessly In the dark were they to de pend on my attempted explanation of the difference.

"I'll shave him myself." said the Sheriff to an Orcgonian reporter, "and then I'll be sure nothing will hap pen to him. I will bet you 55 I can do it. Why, I have shaved myself many times on a Pullman, going round a curve. Tou can see me do It, If you like." For Selling Liquor to Child.

Safe Cracksman Is Captured. George Mason, with several aliases, was arrested by Detectives Kerrigan and Snow last night at Second and Couch streets, .on suspicion of being one of a gang which has been dynamiting safes in and around Portland recently. Mason is said to bo a very desperate character. He served five years In the Walla Walla Penitentiary for highway robbery committed In Seattle, and Is thought to have served time In Nevada.

WEST SEASIDE DRY No Saloons May Get Licenses There, MAYOR AND COUNCIL NAMED By Legislative Provision Citizens of Other Cities Having Summer Homes May Be Elected to Hold Office. The .act passed at the last session of the Legislature establishing- and Incorporating- the City of "West Seaside for bids the issuance of licenses to saloons and the conduct of such places vlthln the limits of tne new city. Designing- persons have sougpt to spread the report that grog- shops and beer halls are to be a part of the busi ness section of the resort with the evi dent intention of Injuring- Its fair name. There Is no truth to these stories and the officials of West Seaside are at a loss to understand the object of those starting- such tales. West Seaside is a popular Summer resort for many of Oregon's prominent people and for some years the owners of Summer homes there have fought tne. proposition of annexation to the town of Seaside, which is situated just across tne Necanlcum River, because the charter of the latter place provided ior tne granting- of licenses to saloons. Tho passage of the law at the last session of the Legislature was the cuL initiation of the efforts of the property- owners, and in keeping with their de sire for a charter that would forbid sa loons, a list of officials that are pledged to enforce the laws in that respect was selected. Section 4 of the incorporation act reads: "The Council shall have power and authority- -within the corporate limits to restrain and suppress, barrooms, tipplins-houses, and all places where spirituous or malt liquors might bo sold; and to license, tax, regulate, re strain or suppress billiard saloons, bowling- alleys, theatrical and other ex hibitions, shows and other public amusements; and to suppress bawdy houses, houses of ill-fame, gambling houses and gaming; provided, that no license for the sale of spirituous, vin ous or malt liquors shall be issued.' The town of Seaside already has four saloons, which, women and children must pass in going to and from the pbstofflce from West Seaside and it is the object of the foregoing section of the law to prevent the establishment of such places on the west side of the river.

POETLAHD'S BANK CEEA1HCGS Largest in the History of the City for One Day. Portland's bank clearings yesterday were the largest In the history of the local association. They amounted to $2,055,475, The previous high record was made Oc tober 10 last, when the clearing-house re-. ported exchanges of $1,353,790. The heavy business transacted yesterday was duo largely to the transferring of checks mak ing up the $1,000,000 deposit made by Henry P. Scott & Co., the Wilmington (Del.) bankers, to stockholders of the Columbia River' fc Northern Railroad. Aside from this deal, an amount of business consid erably larger than the average in regular commercial circles Is reflected by the bank statement.
