Abrahamson. of Congregation Ahavai Sholom. on his way home after administering deathbed rites to a member of his synagogue, was stopped by a high wayman at Tenth and Montgomery streets at w.j) o clock last night, and was com pelled to hand over S3 while he looked Into the barrel of a revolver. The highway man took the money offered him. and also took It for granted that the rabbi was honest enough not to hold out any. The rabbi gave the highwayman all the money In his possession at the time. On the demand of the footpad to hand over a gold watch and chain. Rabbi Abraham- son refused, and started to make an out cry. The highwayman did not press him for it, and he was able to retain his time piece. The highwayman commanded his victim to march along Tenth street and not look round. He complied, but. meeting a pedes trian after walking a block, he warned him not to go in the direction of the hold-up. The rabbi, who lives at 3tC Thirteenth street, hurried to his residence and noli lied his son, who Informed the police. Po licemen and detectives wore orderd out, but no arrest was made.

ILL GALL MASS MEETING PFOPLK'S FORUM COMMITTEE AXD THE KICIIARDS CASE. Charged That Young Girls Have Been Lured to Their Jltiln Because of Richards. Although no definite announcement has been made, there is little doubt but that a public indignation meeting will be held In regard to the Richards hotel. The committee appointed by the People's Fo rum met yesterday afternoon, and was In session for several hours. At the con clusion of the meeting It was given out that some very startling and shameful facts had come to light, and that the committer would make, further Investiga tions before taking any action on the matter. The committee is composed of Dr. Stephen S. Wise.- H. D. "VVagnon and Mrs. Millie R. Trumbull. It is understood that the committee has received certain testimony and mi dence that will show conclusively that young girls have been lured to their ruin at the Richards hotel. It is alleged the admittance of young girls into the es tablishment and the selling of liquor to them has heretofore been not an unusual thing, and thHt the girls who work in the stores about the city have been made the prey of rich young men because of such places as Richards . There were many about town wlto were not Inclined to condemn the Richards ho tel at the beginning of the agitation, be lieving that the cases of girls under age being sold liquor in the resort were few and isolated. But now the public sent! meut is almost as a unit In condemnation of the Richards hotel, and demands that the searchlight of investigation be turwed on to ascertain if all that is alleged of the resort is true. It is also understood that the commit tee appointed by the People's Forum will call the public indignation meeting within a very few days. It is presumed that some large auditorium will be rented, and that various speakers will address the as semblage. It is not known whether the Municipal .League will co-operate with the commltteo of the People's Forum. The committee is satisfied that Richards' ho tel has been conducted in a disgraceful and lamentable manner, and It Is known that some action will be taken. OPERA MAIL ORDERS.

Mr. Johnson started one couple to the new country who will do their part, ho thinks. In settling up the huge country that Is now largely a wilderness. J. C.

Three of the children are triplets. It is safe to say that race suicide will be unknown' in the country across the border. Mr. Johnson says this immigration to Canada does not work a hardship on Ore gon, because in each case the place of the emigrant is taken by newcomers from the East who are. for the mwt part, better educated In agricultural subjects than the average Oregon farmer. That Canada can raise wheat he says is shown by the fact that its display of wheat captured the gold medal at the Lewis and Clark Fair.

MARTIM READY ARRESTED Inspector Bruin Issues the Order, and -Within Ten Minutes Pa trolman Hocsly Descends Upon the Place. Patrolman Hoesly raided the Owl sa loon. Fifth and Alder streets, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon and took into custody nvc men. among tnem -Martin Ready, who was booKcd on a charge of gambling and released on cash bail of J3C0. The others were permitted to go. there being no evi dence against them. Ready Is said to have been working a handbook of pools on Oakland races. Inspector of Police -Bruin instigated the raid, and while he did not instruct Patrol man Hoesly at what hour to swoop down on the Owl saloon, he informed him that pool-felling waj In progress In certain placet in the vicinity of Fifth and Abler streets, and among the establishments named the one from which Ready was taken. Within ten minutes from the time Iiruln spoke to Hoesly about the matter ih nikl was made and the victims were at headquarters. This morning Inspector Bruin will take up the prosecution of the case with Dep uty City Attorney Fitzgerald, and will endeavor to secure a warrant for the arrest of Manager John Finn, who Is- said to lie resjionslble for the establishments during: the absence of "Doc" H. G. llrown, who Is in Gohlfields, Ncv. Inspector Bruin and Acting Chief. Gritz macber were delighted with the raid, as an Important telegram was confiscated, as wa also a long list of names of Port landers, who are said to have patronized the Oakland races, through Martin Ready. "1 am pleased with the case as It st amis." said Inspector Bruin. "I told the ofllcerj on the beats around Fifth and Alder streets- that pool-selling was : gdng mi In certain places, and named the Owl saloon as one of them. Within ten minutes afterwards Patrolman Hoesly brought Ready and others to headquar ters. We have first-class evidence, which was- seized, and I feci confident we have. a tine case against the defendant. I think the manager or proprietor of the Owl sa loon is guilty, as it is notorious that the races were being played through hand book agents lit certain establishments, among them the Owl." Martin Ready has figured in many cases. among them the celebrated Milwaukie ' raw, which lias gone down In local his tory as a distinctive feature of Mayor 1-ane's administration. Because of the fact tliat the Country Club was located outside the city limits, and in Clackamas County, tile courts held that the local police had no jurisdiction, and the cases were dismissed. When Acting Chief Gritzmachcr was aiHH-isetl of the evidence held against Martin Ready he told Inspector Bruin to "go ahead and give It to them." E MIIS.

Frequent and prolonged at tacks of pain weaken the gen erative power of the nerve cells of the brain, and lead to loss of memory, melancholy, spasms, epilepsy, and frequent ly insanity. When the brain nerves are weakened they are unable to supply sufficient nerve force to the nerves that control the lungs, heart, stomach and other organs, and these organs are thus robbed of energy, and unable to meet the demands upon them.and they get sick. Stop the head pains with Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills, and the influence upon your general health will be greater than you can realize.
