The County Commissioners Court yes terday refused to approve a bill for $133 presented by Sheriff Word for the wages of two guards who acted as a death watch over Frank Guglielmo. the murderer of Freda Guarascia. After the Supreme Court affirmed the judgment of the lower court, and while the Sheriff was awaiting the mandate of the Supreme Court, he employed guards to watch Guglielmo, be cause it was known Guglielmo desired to commit suicide, and had endeavored to utitain morphine from trusties. The guards were authorized by Judge George. v Judge Webster and County Commission ers Barnes and Llghtner have deferred payment of the bill pending an Inquiry into the facts, but will probably author Ize Its payment later on. The courtre fused to pay another bill presented for services rendered by Jasper Fuller, guard m the Warwick Club poolroom, amount ing to $103. This action was expected, because other bills of this same kind have been turned down. Sheriff Word says if the County Court will give him two more deputies and pay nis expense oms, tnerc win be things doing in the red-light district which arp passed by now. He says he has only four men. who are working night and day to take care of the office work, and have not time to attend to other matters in which the public Is interested that the police pass by. WHERE JO DINE. All ii delicacies of ib waec-B. at tkv Portland Restaurant, fine, private apart SERMONS BY Rey. Newell Dwight Hillis, rtE . NEWELL DWIGHT HILLIS. Things Heard in the Rotundas "My trip through Nevada was exceed ingly interesting," said Marlon Lawrance. of Toledo, O., who is in Portland to at tend the Oregon Sunday School Conven tion. "There are 110.000 square miles In that state, but they have only 42 Sunday schools. In several of the counties, as large as some of our Eastern States, they have hot a single Sunday school. Of course, the small population accounts for it, but I was nevertheless surprised when I visited there. "Nevada is the greatest state in the Union for mushroom towns. Rich strikes wllnbe made and the people will flock In and xbulld up a town. Maybe In two or three months or a year the mines will give out, and the men will be thrown out of work. Then the town Is abandoned. These deserted villages are scattered all over Nevada. "In some of the towns, which wrre built high in the mountains, goods and stocks are" to be found In the stores. The goods were transported over the moun tains at a great expense and installed just at the time the booms collapsed. The merchants, realizing that it would cost more than they were worth to transport them back over the mountain ranges, left l-the goods behind. Several of the towns that were deserted were of fairly good size and at one time very prosperous." "The Japs firmly believe that thoy aro the strongest of nations," said Mrs. N. Dwyer, formerly of Portland and Salem, but now of Shanghai, China, at the Hotel Portland yesterday. "I do not think they would hesitate to tackle any of the largest European powers; as their success with the Russian arms have given them almost untold confidence. I was in Japan when the war first started. I returned there about six months later. I was never so surprised in my life to see the change that had taken place with the Japs. Formerly they used rather to crjnge before the foreign ers, but such is not the case now. They consider themselves just' as good as the white people, and are not as courteous to them as they formerly were. They are more friendly to the Americans than to the other visitors. "The rapidity of the increase of popu lation among the Japs is remarkable. I never saw so many children in my life a6 I did in Japan. The streets were lined with them.' It is no uncommon sight to see girls about 6 years of agG taking care of small babies. The childron arrive so fast that It is necessary that the older girls take care of them." PERSONAL MENTION. H.

City's Offenders Be fore Judge Hogue Many women appeared In the Munici pal Court yesterday to give testimony in the case of the state against Claud Quivey, charged with larceny by trick cry. Only one was placed on the stand, after .which the case was continued until next Monday for'further hearing. Quivey is the man who has been con ducting an alleged art gallery In the Cosmos House, and charging women for paints and for lessons said never to have been given by him. Mrs. Cora Walling-, living at 634 Fourth street, swore that she had dealings with the defendant, and that she paid him ?4.9& from which she neyer received any re turns. Attorneys Wolfe and Moody repre sented Quivey, and Deputy District At torney Haney the prosecution. The de fense contends that there has been no violation of law, and that larceny can-, not be proved. A tale of unusual cruelty on the part of a husband, was told Judge Hogue by Mrs. Myrtle Conception, wife' of John M. D. Conception, a Frenchman. The woman is a cripple, and he is but re cently out of San Qucntin, one of the California state prisons, where he was sentenced to serve a year for the lar ceny of a bicycle. "My husband, to whom I was married four months ago, has never supported me," said the woman who complained against him for using obscene and abu sive language toward her the previous night, on Washington atreet. "He got out of San Quentin by an appeal to the officials that he wished to support his crippled wife, but he has never helped me. In the first place, he compelled me to marry him, saying hp would shoot me if I refused. "I-am now working In the match fac tory here! making from 20 to 65 cents a day.". The case was continued for further testimony. Open River Men to Incorporate.
