EX-POLICEMAN DOLAN HELD Ball of East Side Capitalist Is Xot to Be Returned Until lie Conforms to the Imw Regarding Trap Doors. FEATURES OF MUNICIPAL. COURT SESSION. Wronged -wire called upon Judge Camoron to mete out extreme punish ment to woman she declared had stolen the bread and butter from her self and babies tor two years: had wrecked her home and taken her hus band. ex-Policeman Frank Dolan. H. D. WintorB. East Side capitalist. wa Riven until Saturday to clear sidewalk, and his bail o 550 was held meanwhile. French sailor paid $20 fine Imposed on man who struck him. Criticism of police laxity in China town caused arrests. The defendants at first refusod to plead Kullty and were lined ?3 more than the rogular amount when they returned and pleaded guilty. Pullman porters accused of drup Klng and robbing a woman denied their Kullt, and complaining witness asked for a dismissal. She refused to pay $2u court costs and tho casos were continued. With one hand outstretched and a trem bling linger pointed accusingly at Jessie Boland, while with the other she held a babe to her breast. Mrs. Dolan. wife of cx-Policeman Frank Dolan, yesterday morning created a sensation by shouting the above bitter words of denunciation at the woman who stood with Dolan charged with disorderly conduct The scone was one of the most dramatic ever enacted in the Municipal Court. Ex-Policeman Dolan and Jessie Boland were arrested by Acting Detectives Kay and Jones in a local hostelry Saturday night, and In all probability will be changed, with a serious offense. The wom an now accused with him has broken up the Dolan home, the police declare and Mrs. Dolan affirmed this yesterday morn ing. Through the troubles growing out of the scandal, Dolan was horsewhipped on the street by his wife about one year ago, while he was still an officer, and at the time the Boland woman ran to escape the lashes aimed at her by the angry wife. Dolan and Jessie Boland entered pleas of pot guilty, when arraigned by Deputy City Attorney Fitzgerald, and the case was set for hearing this morning. "This case will be heard tomorrow morning, Mrs. Dolan." said Mr. Fitz gerald to Mrs. Dolan, who occupied a seat facing her husband as he stood by the side of Jessie Boland. "Judge. I hope you will give her the full limit," shouted Mrs. Dolan to Judge Cameron, as she rose and pointed at Jessie Boland with one hand and held her babe to her breast with the other. "For two years she has stolen the 'bread and butter from me and my babies, and she has wrecked our home and taken my hus band." Dolan and Jessie Boland winced under the cutting words of the wife, and cast their eyes to tho floor. A long row of iwlicemen sat to the rear, and Dolan took good care not to look in their direction, for if he listened attentively to what was going on. he must have heard himself dis cussed by them in most uncomplimentary terms. All the wealth of H. D. Winters, East Side capitalists, did not make his promise good in court yesterday, for when Judge Cameron gave him until next Saturday morning to arrange trap-doors and to clear the sidewalks at Grand avenue and Davis street to the satisfaction of Mount ed Policeman Croxford. the court kept Winters' bail of $50, telling him he would return it to him Saturday, If the officer's report was satisfactory. Winters took the stand, and said that he had never been molested before, and that he could not understand why he should be now. He admitted the charges against him. but said that he had to have i ne aoors on me siacwaiK open an tne time so that the 75 guests In the building could get Into the basement after wood. A. Ferdinand struck Bofail HIppolyte on tho head with an iron stick on the French ship Asie, Saturday noon, and Judge Cameron yesterday lined Ferdinand S30. Feeling sorry for the defendant, the aggrieved Hlppolytc fished down in his trousers" pocket and brought out a shin ing gold coin, with which lie paid his as sailant's fine. Criticism of lax. ioIIce methods in Chinatown brought the first visible re sults Sunday night, when Sergeant of Police Hogeboom arrested Jake Sing and Lem Mow, charging them with gambling. The defendants were expected to enter pleas of guilty when taken into court yesterday morning, liut' at first they re fused to do so. Later they returned and entered such pleas. "J will fine you each $3 more than I would If you had pleaded guilty at first." said Judge Cameron. "Your fines are IIS each." The Chinese paid the fines cheerfully. F. P. Storrls and E. R. Brodie. Pullman porters, charged, with drugging and rob bing Mrs. Ann Palmer of $60 while en route to Portland, were arraigned and pleaded not guilty. A. D. Jackson, tho complaining witness, was present to ask that the charges be dismissed, but when informed that if this was done he would have to pay $23 court costs, he balked and said he would not do It. Both defendants emphatically deny their guilt- The cases were continued. . flowed the waters of the Colorado River. Owing to changes in the course of the river, the inflow ceased and the water of the lake finally evaporated. At the lowest point in the valley a salt marsh was left, the bottom of which was nearly SOD feet below sea level. About a year ago an Irrigation company cut a shallow ditch through the bank of the Colorado River into this basin. A lit tle later, at a time when the water In the river was very high, the banks of this ditch were 'cut away and its bottom wag scoured out by the rapid current, so that now practically the entire volume of the water in the river flows Into the basin. During the past six or eight months thou sands of dollars have been expended in various Ineffectual attempts to control the Inflow of the river. The salt marsh lias been enlarged to form a lake 40 or DO miles In length. The water Is rising at the rate of about an inch a day. The proposed surveys will furnish data for an accurate map of that portion of the old lake that lies within the United Stales, and will enable the cartographers of the survey to show, in correct position on the map. the numerous towns within the area, the channels of the two stream? that carry the water of the Colorado River to the lake, and various other topo graphic features. "With this data in hand, a careful estimate can be made of the time that it would take to fill this great lake basin again should the course of the Colorado River not be changed. FUND IS CUT HEIRS AT DUTS DYER ESTATE INVOLVED IX A CONTROVERSY WITH THE EXECUTORS. Proposed Distribution of Dividend lo the W. C. Noon Estate One of the Features. A controversy among the heirs of W. C. Noon, deceased, and the executors of his will concerning the distribution of a divi dend of $25,000 made by the W. C. Noon Bag Company, and the disposition of real property, occupied the time of Judge Webster in the County Court yc5terday. Testimony was heard nnd arguments by counsel representing various contestants. Some time ago W. C. Noon, Jr., and H. M. Cake, two of the executors, petitioned for the sale, of a farm in Columbia Coun ty belonging to the estate, and advocated the retention of real property in Mult nomah County for the reason that it would probably Increase largely in value. T. J. Armstrong, the remaining execu tor, filed an objection to the sale of the Columbia County farm. His reason is that the will gives the immediate heirs a life estate in the property, and their. chil dren a life estate, and that the executors could not convey legal title to a pur chaser. The other executors say they had to return, a deposit of $600 to a prospective purchaser, and now cannot sell real prop erty of the estate on account of the con test of Mr. Armstrong. This matter is now pending on appeal In the higher court. The indebtedness of the W. C. Noon es tate is $59.5S9. of which $34,500 Is due to the W. C. Noon Bag Company. There is a disputed, claim presented by H. II. Clark for $4500. and claims aggregating $20,589 drawing Interest. The capital stock of the company is $150,000, composing 1500 shares, of which the estate owns 1149 jharcs, T. J. Arm strong 300 and W. C. Noon, Jr., 61. The company recently declared a 23 per cent dividend, or $26,427. and It was voted by W. J. Noon, Jr.. and H. M. Cake that the money be used to pay outstanding claims due by the estate, except the claim of the W. C. Noon Bag Company, which would be waix'cd for the present, "and the disputed claim of H. H. Clark. Mr. Armstrong says he objected to this at the meeting, and asserts that H. M. Cake Is not a stockholder in the W. C. Noon Bag Company, and consequently had no authority, to vote regarding the disposition of the dividend. Mr. Arm strong wants the money received from the dh-idend divided equally among all of the creditors, save. Clark, whose claim is con tested, and that the heirs get nothing of the dividend. A. King Wilson. Oscar A. Neal and H. II. Northrup appeared as at torneys for Mr. Armstrong Thomas G. Green appeared as attorney for the widow, Emily C. Noon, and other heirs interested are Viola Noon, Ralph Noon. LuVu Werner and Stuart Freeman Werner a minor. Ralph W. Wilbur ap peared for the last named. Mr. Wilbur and Mr. Greene were not far apart. Mr. Wilbur contended that the farm In Columbia County never paid, and had cost, including what It run behind. $&1000. He asserted that all of the real property should be sold and the debts liquidated, and that the heirs should re ceive their share of the dividends of the W. C. Noon Bag Company meanwhile. Mr. Greene voiced like sentiments, and told the court Mrs. Noon had not received her allowance. Messrs. Greene and Wil bur argued that the way things were con ducted the heirs would not get anything for many years to come. The will provides that the company shall be kept together for ten years, under a trusteeship, of which H. M. Cake and W. C. Noon. Jr.. are members, and the profits disbursed. There are also numer ous other provisions in the will. Mr. Wil bur argued that there was plenty of real property to pay the debts, and the heirs were entitled to their share of the profits of the company under the terms of the will. William M. Cake appeared as at torney for H. M. Cake and William C. Noon. Jr. WILL SURVEY SALTON SEA Government Will Learn About Rav ages of Colorado River. WASHINGTON, Jan. 35. The changes now taking place in that part of Southern California, which is known as the Sallon Sink, Salton Sea, Imperial Valley, or Colorado desert, have resulted In the di rector of the United States Geological Survey ordering an Immediate survey of the entire area.

The annual meeting of the Oregon Fish and Game Association will probably be held about Tuesday, January 30. The de lay In announcing tho date of the meet ing has been caused by the absence of several members of the organization, and the secjtao-deslres to secure as full an attendance as possible, as there are sev eral important matters to come before the meeting. Secretary A. E. Gebhart has a plan of reorganization In view which lie Intends to submit to the organization. Heretofore there lias been a great deal of difficulty In getting the out-of-town members to evince a more than passing Interest in the affairs of the association, and by the proposed new system of organization, the members of the different portions of the state would be formed into sub-organizations In their respective districts and given authority to act in matters pertain ing to the work of the association that would benefit their particular localities.

FIVE THOUSAND REDUCTION Despite Protest of Park Commission ers, the Order Is Made, and Six Thousand of Remainder Set Apart for East Side. At the meeting of the ways and means committee of the Council yesterday. Aud itor Devlin made the announcement that $32,S9i had been appropriated In excess of the estimated municipal Income, but ex plained that a considerable portion of the appropriations would not be used, and would become available to meet any pos sible deficiency. The Auditor's statement had the effect of inspiring the committee with a spirit of economy, so that when the three mem bers of the Park Board appeared on the j?cene and set forth their case relative to the requirements for the coming year, they were met with a counter irritant In the shape of a cut from $30.O. their orig inal estimate, to $25.0M. and to make mat ters worse, this amount was segregated in the ratio of $5000 for East Side parks, leaving the rest for the West Side. Park Board Protests. In consequence, a general protest was made by Commissioners L. I Hawkins, Ion I,cwis and J. D. Meyer, but It was not tremendous enough to affect the re sult. Colonel Hawkins said the Park Board had submitted estimates based upon an appropriation of $30.O because it had actually expended $2?,0! last year, and it was anxious to erect a greenhouse this year at a cost of about jl, and besides wanted to donate $3X0 towards the $6000 fund provided annually for open air music. The board might possibly want to buy some more animals for the Park Zoo, he said, it the opportunity came, nnd many good and sufficient reasons were given why It should need more money. In view of the moral effect of the Fair and the flattering prospects for a bounteous year, the Colonel thought a few " thousand dollars extra might not come amiss. 'Francis I. McKenna, agent of the Uni versity Land Company, pointed out the needs of the East Side for park facilities, and in this he was corroborated by Coun cil men Rushlight and Kellaher and Wal demar Seton, the East Side Justice of the Peace, Councilman Bennett, of the committee, finally moved that the appropriation be limited to 525.000. and that of this sum JS0M should go to the care of East Side parks. Rushlight seconded, and the mo tion prevailed, despite the protests or tho Park Board., which, may carry the fight before the general body when It meets tomorrow. Appropriations for the City Health De partment next received consideration, and Dr. A. J. Glcsy created a mild sensation by suggesting that the salary of "Billy" BeutelBpacher be reduced from 5IS a year, the original estimate, to $KO. claim ing that there were no scientific features connected with the job of Assistant Health Officer. The main duties of the ofrtc consisted of the fumigation of In fected premises, as well ss a general su pervision over pesthouse patients, and this class of knowledge did not appeal very strongly to Dr. Glcsy from a scien tific standpoint. Salaries Arc TScduccd. Bennett was of the opinion that Beutcl spacher was the main reliance of the Health Department, and It was generally admitted that he has attended to the dis agreeable duties of the position with marked fidelity, but just the same the committee saw a chance to save a few dollars, and the income of Dr. Matron's popular assistant was made to suffer In consequence. The salary of the City Physician was also reduced from J10S0 to $K. and that of clerk in the Health Office from $500 to $720, creating a total saving by the opera tion of $GG0, and giving the Health Depart ment instead of J3CS5, for the en suing year. It Is the Intention to reorganize the de partment entirely after the Council acts upon the appropriations, the Idea being, as stated last night by Dr. Glesy. to clothe the Chief of the Health Depart ment with full power, under direction of the Board of Health. Dr. C. H. Wheeler will probably be given the' position at the stipulated salary of $300) a year, and will, doubtless, be allowed whatever as sistants the demands of the situation re quire. All the members of the ways and means committee showed a desire to place the department upon a first-class founda tion. Dr. George F. Wilson, of the Health Board, also made a strong plea in favor of having an experienced man at the head of the department, with a salary com mensurate with the rcsironslbllitics of the position. A I'LAIN STATEMENT. Qualify of Beer Depend-, I'pon HuptrlorHy of Material. Treatment and Maturity. Purity Is a universal essential In all bnrf;. The observance of cleanliness and sterilization will secure it. Heulthfulncss. combined with flavor and taste, constitutes real quality, and these are impossible without the very best mate rials and the highest order of treatment. This Is what science and experience teach. Quality, depending upon the character of materials and the methods cmpldycd. is the real goal for competition among brew ers. Materials: To provide the public with a really good, palatable and wholesome beer of the highest quality, we use the best barley-malt, the highest-grade hops, su perior yeast, and in our pale beers a small percentage of rice. In all our beers we use the best and purest materials, regard less of cost. Corn we never use. although It Is not excluded by authority, and has the ad vantage of cheapness. We use no substi tute of any klrid to reduce our expense. We spare neither money nor care to for tify and Increase ur well-earned and long-established reputation. Treatment and maturity: We employ only the most modern methods in brew ing: our latest acquisition being SCO glass lined tecl tanks made by the Pfaudler Company, of Rochester, N. Y. The beer, after leaving the brew kettles. Is con veyed to glass-enameled fermenting vats. After fermentation it is lagcred Caged) from four to five months In the glass lined steel tanks before It Is bottled: thus absolute purity of our beer Is insured, be cause It Is in glass from the time It Is brewed until It Is consumed. Our present storing capacity of 600.000 barrels Is more than that of any other two breweries in the world. These facilities enable us to age our beer the length of time necessary to guarantee its purity and maturity not in printers' Ink but in fact. For these reasons Budweiser. the King of Bottled Beers, must and does command a higher price than any other beer, and at the same time has a greater sale than all other bottled beers.
