"Do you know what absinthe tastes like?" asked Deputy City Attorney Fitz gerald of Miss Baxter, after she had answered Smith's question. "It tastes pretty strong," she replied.

Hungry and cold, without money or friends, Ralph Herman Wagner, 16 years old, from Salt Lake- City, Utah, was found shivering in the chill air at 2 o clock yesterday morning at Sixth and living streets. Policeman Johnson found him. "What are you doing here at this hour of the morning, son?.' queried the police man. as he came up to where the boy was standing. Unable to control his emotions, the boy burst into tears, and it was some time before he was able to tell his story. He lived in San Lake City, where now his aged mother la seriously ill, he said, and left home, thinking to make his own way in the world and relieve the burden of expense she had previously borne for him. Arriving in Portland, he left the freight train on which he had ridden and wandered around the city, having no means to secure lodging or food and no friends on whom to call for aid. This was the boy's situation when found by Policeman Johnson. The officer escorted him to police headquarters, where a small collection was taken up for the boy's benefit. He was given a warm meal and then made comfortable at the station until later in the day when plans were set on foot to secure him transportation to his home and mother. The boy declares that he has had suf ficient of the hobo lifo and that if he succeeds in getting home, he will never leave It again. RIVALS SHERLOCK HOLMES Patrol Driver Price Corners and Ar rests Two Suspicious Characters. While John H. Price is at present hold ing the humble position of patrol driver in the local police department, he has on several occasions displayed detective ability that has won for him consider able distinction and praise. Wednesday night he arrested Ralph Thompson and Ralph Ellis, while they were rummaging about in various lodging houses in the city, and they are now occupying cells in the city Jail, pending an investiga tion. "What do you do for a living?" asked Price of Ellis. "I worked all last week it 'blackface' comedy in a vaudeville' tneater," replied Ellis. "You never did any such thing. That theater had no 'blackface' comedy last week," promptly replied Price, after El lis named the theater. Ellis then said he had made a mis take In the nsme of the house, and gave another, but investigation showed that he had not worked there, and Ellis and his pal will have to clear themselves of the suspicion against them. While they claim to be vaudeville artists, the police say they should be listed as "bad actors." LARGE OYSTER CONCERN Locating on East Side. Mr. A.

WANT CITY TO BUILD IT Initiative One Hundred Members Favor Belt Line on East Third. Now that the O.
