She left Port land with a good crowd of passengers and between this city and Vancouver clearly demonstrated the fact that she is the swiftest steamer on the Willamette or Columbia rivers.

AFTER THE BAD ONES NOW FEDERAL GRAND JURY TACKLES POSTOFFICE ROBBERIES. ' Evidence Against Gang Is Strong and Indictments Likely to Be Returned Other Bills. Captain J. E. Neilson, master of the tng Star, and the Star Sand Company were Indicted yestertsey afternoon by the Federal grand jury, charged with throw ing refuse Into the Willamette River. That Captain Neilson would he indicted seemed evident, for the case agamst him was strong, but it was not expected that Indictments would be returned against the company, which is composed of a number of prominent business men. The indictments against Neilson and the sand company were presented to Judge Wolverton when court convened after the noon recess, after which the grand Jury began hearing evidence in the Sellwood and St. Johns postofflce robber ies. The evidence which the Government has against Frank Kelly, Frank Wayne, Claude J. Eggleston, Charles Anderson, Lewis L. Smith, "Toots" Bryant, F. S. Rankin and William Carter is Btrong. They are accused of robbing the two postoffices and it is believed are guilty of a number of other robberies. Captain Archie Turnbull, a member of the Portland fire department, was also mixed up with the gang. It was Turn bull who sold the stolen stamps. "Toots" Bryant also acted as a fence, but both have confessed and it was through their confession that the postal inspectors were able to fasten the crime on the gang. Ralph Jackson, who had been indicted for cattle stealing, was arraigned yester day and pleaded not. guilty and was held under 11000 bonds. When taken Into court Jackson was asked how long he had lived on the Klamath Indian reservation. The Indian gazed longingly out of the window for a moment and said: "Maybe 100 years. I don't know." The answer staggered the court for a second. Jackson did not have the ap pearance of a centenarian, so he asked him how old he was. The Indian, still uninterested, replied: "Forty-six, 47 perhaps." PORTLAND LEADS COUNTRY Bank Clearings for Two Weeks Show Great Prosperity. For two consecutive weeks Portland's gain in bank clearings has exceeded those of every' other city in the country. Ac cording to Bradstreet's report for the week ending April 25, the bank clearings at Portland aggregated $6,944,000, repre senting an Increase over the clearings for the corresponding week last year of 75.3 per cent. Thus the Rose City retains the lead against all competitors. An increase In bank clearings Is re ported for other Pacific Coast and North west cities, but, comparatively, Portland is far in the lead. For the week clearings of the Los Angeles banks show a gain of 33.7 Der cent. Spokane 45.9, while the same increase, 12.7 per cent, is reported for Tacoma and Seattle. Next to Port-, land, with its phenomenal increase of 75.3 per cent, comes Mobile, Ala., witn 69.2 per cent. For the week ending April is fortiana s increase was 64.7 per cent over the same period a year ago. This was considered a remarkably gratifying showing, but the per centage of Increase tor tne louowing week has exceeded that showing. Of more than 100 of the principal cities cov ered in the report, only 24 show a de crease in bank clearings, indicating a generally prosperous condition through out the country. Only one city of tne list of 24, Fremont, Neb., is located west nf the Mississippi River. The per centage of its decrease in bank clearings was 20.4 for the week covered in the report.

HEARD IN THE , ROTUNDAS pr FAMILIAR figure in the Imperial f Hotel rotunda these days is George Collins, formerly of Salem. Mr. Collins is a product of the State of Maine, and came to Oregon in the '80s. He is a pow erfully built man, and, despite his 71 years, is erect, sturdy and rugged. From 18S3 to 18S4 Mr. Collins was warden of the State Penitentiary, and from 1SS4 to 1887 he was superintendent of that in stitution. At 9 A. M., July 2. 1883. occurred the great prison break at Salem, in which Mr. Collins was a central figure, which resulted in the death of several convicts and the wounding of Warden Collins. Fourteen desperate convicts seized Mr. Collins, and, using him as a shield, rushed to the south gate of the prison. A convict on either side, each with a knife held in close proximity to Collins" neck, ordered him to command Fence Guard Stlllweil to hand down his gun. "Don't do It, Stlllweil." said the plucky warden; "do your duty!" A convict named Smith struck the war den a blow en the arm with an iron bar, and another desperado gave him a slight tab on the forehead, and then Stlllweil began shooting. McKern, "Sitka Jack," Waters and Brown, ringleaders; were shot dead in their tracks. The remainder of the gang got out of the gate and escaped. Beau- champ was killed, and Glenn, Bradshaw and Munsneia were wounded and cap tured. Of the 14 men concerned in the emeute all were either killed or captured except Disbrow, who is still at large. Dlsbrow was a short-termer and was sent up from. i-ortiand lor tneit. HAVE a peculiar arrow which was I given me by a soldier friend, who served in the Philippines. It is about eight inches long, with jagged edges, and Is fully two inches in width, where it is Joined on to the arrowshaft," said Clerk jonn item, or the Perkins Hotel, yester day. "1 am told that there is but one arrow like it in this oountry. My friend, in presenting it to me. gave something of the history of this peculiar pattern of arrow. It seems that for certain offenses among the savage population of the Phil ippines, there is an unwritten law which condemns the offender to be tied to tree and shot through the heart with this arrow. - It is said to make a frightful wound, and if the aim of the bowman is sure. death is instantaneous. I prize the ar row highly as a souvenir, and without boasting, I believe I have one of the finest collections of Philippine curios in Portland." "It seems to me," said an extremely practical man who leaned up against the office bar, and heard the statement, "that those Filipinos go to a great deal of needlese labor in making such an exquisite Instrument as you have described,- in order to kill a fellow.. Why, they could easily avoid all that work by knocking the fellow on the head with a club!" "If you had been born a Filipino, and could have had your way about It, nearly all the people In Portland might now have a collection of Filipino stove wood hang ing on their walls," said Mr. Held, with a wltnerlng look. HB Oregon Winter climate is good enough for me, hereafter," re marked John Redmond, a well known farmer and fine stock breeder, of Mc Minnville, .yesterday at the Perkins Hotel, where he was staying for the day. "Last Winter," said Mr. Redmond, "I went down to LtOS Angeles to spend three or four months, hoping to find a milder climate. During the month of January there were Just four days of sunshine in Los Angeles, and the people in the Ore gon colony nearly froze to death. It was not an uncommon sight to see Orego nlans going about with their overcoats tightly buttoned under their chins and shivering from cold. I have lived In the Willamette Valley more than 40 years, and I never saw it rain harder or more frequently during the month of Janu ary here than was the case in Los Ange- les. On Broadway and Spring street two I or tne principal thoroughfares of Los Angeles I saw running water a foot deep, and one night the torrents washed a .lot of lumber down one of the prin cipal streets and blockaded streetcar traffic. ' "There Is a whole lot of 'moonshine' about California's 'perpetual sunshine,' added Mr. Redmond, and our 'Oregon mists are as nothing compared to the tor- I rential downpour and frigidity of a Los -AJigeies winter. I "Los Angeles' said Mr. Redmond, "has 250,000 population, and 150,000 real estate agents." A JjOs Angeles business man produce enough to live on," indicating tne sana aunes and barren hills, with a wave of his hand. We don't m-odune enmurh tn livo nn " frankly admitted the resident, "we make the tourists do the producing." I RFAI FTATP TRAWQCPRQ liunu LOIHIU inHHOltnO Henry W. and Kate.

WHITEFlELiD, LASTED 1 8 YEARS Baby Girl Had Rash Behind Ears Nothing Would Drive It Away h Spread and Grew Worse Under Specialist's Care Tried Every thing Without Avail. CUTICURA REMEDIES EFFECTED PERFECT CURE "When my daughter was a baby she bad a breaking out behind the ears. The doctor saia that she would out grow it, and it did get somewhat better until she was about fifteen years old, and after that we could get nothing that would drive it away. She was always applying something in the way of salves. It troubled her behind the knees, opposite the elbows, back of the neck and ears, under the chin, and then it got on the face. That was about three years ago. As we had tried everything that we could hear of without help she took treatment with a specialist and seemed to get worse all the time. We were then advised to try the Cuticura Remedies, and now I don't see any breaking out, and we are well pleased with the results, and I will cheerfully recommend the Cuti cura Remedies to all that may need them.
