IMace Obstacles on Railroad Track and Derail Southern Pa cific Handcar. Betauso they wanted to hear the hand car crew swear, Karl Piorson, aged 12, nd Burr Elliott, aged 13. two "Woodburn boys, have confessed to having placed a nut on the rails near Woodburn which derailed a handcar a few days ago. They wcr arrested at Woodburn yesterday by Detective Rcilly of the Southern Pacific. Saturday, two Roumanians, who had been loitering In the vicinity and were acting in a suspicious manner, were ar retted on suspicion and taken to Salem for examination. This exonerated them from any connection with the act of vandalism and they were released from custody. At the time of their arrest they had receipts showing that they had sent $150 each at different intervals to the East, and In addition possessed two watches apiece, which gave rise to the theory that they might have been com- lent in the valley towns. They explained their possession of the articles satisfac torily and were discharged from custody. Detective Reilly then returned to Wood burn and found the two boys. They were taken before the Woodburn marshal and both confessed. On account of their youth. thy were turned over to District Attorney McNary. who administered a severe reprimand and sent the boys home to their parents. Detective Reilly states that incorrigible i boys along the railway tracks In outlying districts are in the habit of doing consid erable damage through such acts of van dalism.' and the only excuse they offer when apprehended Is that they only wanted to hear the handcar or train crews swear while replacing the cars on the traVk. ence has been held with the County Com missioners over the Improvement of roads in the neighborhood with good results. A women's auxiliary was organized to supplement the work of the push-club, and It has been arranged so it will meet in the same rooms. PUTER PARDON IS DELAYED Mount Scott Club Meets. The Mount Scott Push Club will meet tonight in the rear of the Arleta phar macy at Kern Park. At this meeting the ' committee appointed last Monday night ' to confer with the owner of the private water plants regarding Improving their service will report. The committee on se curing a hall for a mass meeting will an ' nounce what ha been done. A confer- Ktng of Land Thieves Expects Its Arrival Daily. S. A. D. Puter's pardon did not reach Portland yesterday, but Puter is still of the opinion that It will arrive this morning:. When Heney advised Puter by telegraph that-the President had signed the pardon, the message was that t.;e papers would be mailed to the "warden. Perhaps the officials- at Washington thought that Puter was at McNeills Island, and it may be that the pardon hus been sent to the Federal prison. Puter is not worrying much over the fact that he Is to be arrested on a' state warrant. Just as soon as his pardon arrives he will have x a bondsman on hand to bail him out. It is Puter's intention to make a flying- visit to Berkeley to visit his family. He will stay there until just time enough to return to Portland for the purpose of testifying at the Hall trial.

Many Republicans Getting Ready to Announce Candidacy for Oounty Offices Democrats Are Quiet. SALEM, Or., Jan. 5. (Special.) With the passing of the holidays, interest in politics has become .manifest in Marion County, and as the registration books open next Monday it is expected that candidates for nomination' in the direct primaries will begin to announce them selves. A number have already indicated to their friends their Intention of seeking favor at the hands of the Republican party. Democrats are taking little in terest except in the- organization of a local club, which will work for the nomi nation and election of Bryan to the Presidency. . Statement No.- 1 is the chief topic of discussion in political circles, indicating that the chief fight of the campaign will be over the legislative ticket, with the Senatorial question prominent. Comment in general seems to be adverse to candi dates taking statement No. 1, but it is apparent, nevertheless, that there will enough aspirants sign the pledge to make this an issue in the primary contest. Marion County has two holdover Sena tors, and none to elect. Bnth are un pledged as to Senator, but are both sup porters of Senator Fulton. They are Dr. J. X. Smith and T. B. Kay. Marlon has five Representatives to elect. The vote in this cotmty two years ago ' indi cated that it made little difference whether a candidate signed statement No. 1 or not, for part of the successful aspirants were signers and part were not. It is probable that this year the candidates will pay little attention to the effect signing or not signing will have upon their prospects, each being governed by his belief in the principle involved. In purely county affairs It is evident that the warmest contest will be over' the office of County Judge, for which there are now two avowed candidates, W. W. Hall, formerly County Clerk, and M. L. Jones, a prominent farmer at Brooks. Present County Judge John H. Scott has said that he will not be a candidate for re-election. He has served two terms W. J. Culver, who is completing his "sec ond term as Sheriff, will not be a candi date again, but his deputy, Harry P. Minto. will seek nomination in the Re publican primaries. No other candidate has become known thus far. R. D. Allen, County Clerk: A. W: Drager, County Re corder, and F. J. Rice, Assessor, are serv ing, first terms and will apparently be renominated without opposition. W. T. Richardson is serving his third term as Treasurer and will not be a candidate again. No candidates have appeared. W. H. Smith is serving a term by ap pointment as successor of County School Superintendent E. T. Moores, resigned, and will be a candidate for nomination. A NEW DEPARTURE. The-cost of interments has been greatly reduced by the Holman Undertaking Company. Heretofore it has been the custom of funeral directors to make charges for all Incidentals connected with a funeral. The Edward Holman Undertaking Company, the leading funeral directors of Portland, have departed from that custom. "When casket is furnished by us we make no extra charges for embalming, hearse to cemetery,- outside box or any services that may be required of us, except clothing, cemetery and carriages, thus effecting a saving of Ko to $75 on each funeral.

Sir Genialle Cave Brown Cave Signs Away Birthright and Now Is Working as Day Laborer. DENVER, Colo., Jan. 5. (Special.) Sir Genialle Cave Brown Cav$, 12th Baronet of the . magnificent Stretton estate in Leicester, England, who. .but for an im politic move as a youth, would still be in possession of the estate, is now in West ern Utah working as a day laborer. In the meantime romantic disclosures have been made through his relatives and the authorities in England to Sir Genialle' attorney, Frank Prestidge, of Denver. In the wild - days of his , youf h, when the fever of wandering was strong within him, he signed over his right of entail to the estate, through the influence of his father, for the paltry sum of 2600. The father. Sir Miles Cave Brown Cave, died, as a late communication, from Eng land has proved, one year ago, leaving a mortgage on the property to the amount of 64,000. The estate, it is said, is val ued at 100,000. Sir Miles spent the money coming from the estate, so it is said, the Atlas Insurance Company, of England, holding the largest claims against the property. A letter received recently from Lady Isabel Cave Brown Cave, who is now in Worcestershire, is brief, and says in one place: "Genialle -has chosen, his life, let him abide by It." R. C. Cave Brown Cave, Rear-Admiral of the British Navy, has also written to the Denver attorneys, and there is a strain in theletter which seems to indicate that if Sir Genialle would return to England withvsufncient money to raise the mortgage and- come into his own again, all would be well. And It -Is said to be a fact that if he1 would marry a wealthy girl who believed! that the possession of a title dating back to Its establishment In 1641. one of the oldest In England, would be compensation1 for her thousands. . all would be well. The Stretton estate iteelf Is in the finest hunting district in England, and mansions thereon have housed for generations the highest - of the English nobility. And now, surrounded by forests, bleak and alone, it Btands, while the man who by right of title should be there is a wan derer on the face of the earth. ADMINISTRATOR'S SALE.
