Further investiga tion by the Boston police and action to day by the Grand Jury in connection with an assault upon a policeman on Boston Common last Thursday even ing, in which Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., was involved, resulted tonight in the arrest in Cambridge of Shaun Kelley. of Fltchburg, a companion of young Roosevelt, and president of the Bopho more class of Harvard. Kelley was arrested on a warrant issued by the Municipal Courts of this city, charging an unknown person with an assault upon a police officer. He was taken to the Cambridge police station, where he furnished bail for his appearance in the Municipal Court room of this city tomorrow morning for a hearing. Kelley was arrested while two offi cers of the Boston police force were serving summons on young Roosevelt and Meredith Blagden, another Harvard student, to appear as witnesses in the Suffolk County Grand Jury investiga tion of the case next Thursday. Young Kelley, realizing that his two friends would be compelled to tell all they knew of the affair to the Grand Jury, approached the Boston officers and accepted the arrest on the warrant granted yesterday for an unknown person. Although Kelley's case may be set tled in court tomorrow, young Roose velt and Blagden will still be com pelled to attend the Grand Jury inves tigation on Thursday. Police Commissioner O'Meara issued u statement tonight to the effect that the department ,was not satisfied with the refusal of Judge Sullivan on Satur day to issue a warrant for young Roosevelt's arrest and therefore a. warrant for the arrest of an unknown person was obtained.

When you're out looking at Suits marked $20 to $25 elsewhere in town, drop in here and look at our Oregon Buckskin Suits at $15.00. You'll notice that there is not a bit of difference be tween them, excepting that in some cases the Oregon Buckskins are even better. That we are elated because we give the best clothing values in the city goes without saying, and that the general public is taking advantage of these values our always busy condition proves in plenitude. These Suits didn't happen by chance,' however. They are . the result of deep planning and painstaking execution. The Brownsville and Salem Woolen Mills made the cloth, accord ing to our direction the best designers suggested the styles, we saw to it that workmanship and construction are of the best As a result you can buy here at $15.00 what would cost $20.00 to $25.00 elsewhere in town. Stanley at $3 O O These Hats occupy a place all their own in the hat world at the very top. No other $3.00 Hat is as good no $5.00 hat is any better than the "Stan ley."

CHILD WAS IN BONDAGE Mrs. E. S. Piper. J. B. Davison's Sister, Has Heard Nothing of Girl"s Inheritance, but Confirms News In Other Respects. Confirmation of the story of the good fortune which has befallen Miss Violet S. Parker, the 16-year-old girl who is being brought to Portland from, her unpleasant surroundings in New Zealand, is given by Mrs. Edward S. Piper, of 450 Magnolia street. Wood lawn, a sister of J. H. Davison, who. with his wife, is bringing the girl to Portland. That Miss Gilbert is escap ing from a life of virtual bondage to be given a good home in this city, Mrs. Piper says is certain. She is familiar with tne circumstances of the case and has received telegrams announcing the success of his mission, from her brother. Concerning the report that the girl is heiress to a fortune of $'100.00 J. Mrs. Piper has no knowledge. The story of Miss Gilbert's life, as told by Mrs. Piper, shows that her 1 years of life have been eventful. She was born in Australia. Her father was a roving sea captain who, with his wife, a sister of Mrs. Davison, formerly li-ed in Portland. The mother died when the child was born, and the father survived her only three years. The little girl was taken in charge by the family with which she and her father had boarded. Although several attempts were made to get possession of her by relatives In this country, she was not released until a few weeks ago when Mr. and Mrs. Davison went to Australia for the sole purpose of obtaining her custody. Mr. and Mrs. Davison left Portland July 12 In search of their niece. Arriv ing at Auckland, they found that the family had removed to Christchurch, taking the girl with them. At that place they found Violet and forced the family to give up possession of the girl whom they had kept 13 years and treated as a menial. "I think the report that Violet is to get $100,000 is a mistake." said Mrs. Piper last night. "My brother had no knowledge of any such legacy when he left to search for his niece, and I have received no word from him con cerning her inheritance of any amount whatever." .., ' GOVERNOR TENDERS GUARD Oregon Militia Willing to Go to Cuba If Needed There. Oregon's National Guard is in readiness to take the field in Cuba should the necessity arise. Officers and men alike are willing to enlist for active service on short notice. This spirit shaped Itself into a formal tender of the guard to the War Department yesterday. After a con ference with Adjutant-General Finzer, Governor Chamberlain sent the following telegram to the War Department: . Salem, Or., Oct. 1, 1906. The Honorable ats They are the kind we sell they are the kind which give unbounded satisfaction, because they are pure wool and give the height of comfort of a cold "Winter 's night. Prices are very modest, of course. Wool Batting We have it. Sell lots of it every season. The best of Oregon wool, thoroughly scoured, so it is sweet and clean ; carded into a big, fluffy sheet of Comforter sue. WOOLEN Secretary of War, Washington. D. C. : The Oregon National Guard Is at your service In the. event troops are needed in Cuba. GEORGE E. CHAMBERLAIN. The guard is one of the best equipped and most thoroughly disciplined State organizations in the country and showed up to excellent advantage by the side of the regulars in the recent American Lake maneuvers. While the chances that its services will be required in Cuba seem to be remote at this time, such a thing is not altogether improbable. In the guard is a full regiment of in fantry, a separate battalion of Infantry, a battery of field artillery and full signal and hospital corps.

In the Edinburgh Uni versity three human lungs lie side by side. One is of an Eskimo and is snow "white. In life, this would be ruddy with rich blood. Another is that of a coal-miner and is black. The other is of a town dweller and is a dirty slate gray, as are the lungs of most city residents. That's why consumption thrives in cities. One reason why Scott's Emulsion does so much to keep down consumption is because it helps to keep the lungs clean and supplies, them with rich, red blood. It makes the lungs germ-resisting. If the body is run down and health is at a low ebb Scott's Emulsion will build it up quickly and per manently. SCOTT 4 BOWM-E. 40, Psail Strott- New York. Oregon Made Blankets STREETS HILL BUCKS WALSH Enables His Railroad to Enter Chicago. OWNS TERMINAL RAILROAD Northwestern Railroad King Puts Ruined Banker on Feet Again by Buying Majority of Transfer Terminal Bonds. CHICAGO, Oct. 2. especial.) Well informed railroad officials see the hand of James J. Hill supporting John R. Walsh in the 'negotiations which, it is announced, have resulted in his obtain ing terminal faclltles in the heart of Chicago for the Southern Indiana Rail road. The motive for this rumored al liance is traced to Hill's alleged hold ings in the Chicago Terminal Transfer Railroad Company, which, it is predict ed, will become a valuable property when operated in conjunction with the Walsh road. The apparently well-founded belief that Hill purchased a majority of the bonds of the terminal road a little more than a year ago, when the company defaulted in the payment of interest on the bonded debt, which aggregated ap proximately $16,500,000. is held to be sufficient reason for crediting the an G 'VI V a v "f V, ' r : i 7 ' mM -. : FROM THE SHEEP'S BACK TO YOUR BACK AND NO COTTON ADDED IN THE MAKING LL STORE J. L. BOWMAN nouncement that Walsh has secured financial backing and perfected an op rating arrangement that would enable him to complete his railroad from Southern Indiana to Chicago. Three interest payments were defaulted, and then the United States Trust Company, of New Tork City, acting as trustees for the bondholders, filed suit in the United States Circuit Court at Chicago to foreclose the mortgage. April IS last Judge Kohlsaat appointed John N. Faithorn receiver, and the suit to fore close Is now pending. During the period since the 'passing of the interest Installment and the ap pointment of the receiver, the public has lost all trace of the bonds, which have remained firm near par, and there have been many apparently well-authenticated reports that Hill, through his financial agents, has secured a ma jority of them.
