Kcwufs Louis Ancellna, 10 Years Old, From Death in Wil lamette River. Louis Anr'lina. an It&iiun boy. asred 1 years, "who resides with his parents at ITS C'aruthcrs street, was saved from drowning- In the W illamette River at 5:30 o'clock last niRht through the presence of mind and heroism of Ous Peterson, a deckhand on the tus Samson, who leaped overboard and caught the little fellow as he was sinking for the third time, and carried him safely to shore. The boy had been playing on the dock at the foot of Jefferson street, along side which structure the tug was moored, nd In some manner lost his footing and tumbled headlong- into the river. The rrew of the tugboat, which was about to take out a string of bara-ee, saw the hoy fall from the dock platform, which la nearly 30 feet above the water level w . 1 1 jj fiurr nnv rnnn nnmiiuinn and Peterson leaped into the water fully ciaa ana wearing: rubber top-boots. The rescuer forced to swim W yards before reaching- the drowning youth and succeeded in grasping the youngster just as he was going- down for the third time. The lifesaver then turned about and struggled manfully to regain the pontoon moored alongside the tug-, which he eventually, gained, with his burden, in an almost exhausted condition. Willing- hands assisted the rescuer and rescued to a place of safety, and to many it appeared that Peterson's efforts had been in vain, for the boy appeared lifeless, but Dan Kern, president of the Columbia Contract Company, which con cern controls the tu Samson, attempted to resuscitate the little fellow. Under the vigorous efforts of Mr. Kern the boy soon commenced to show signs of life, whereupon an ambulance was summoned and the lad was conveyed to St. Vincent's Hospital, where Dr. H. O. Parker found that the only serious effects of the acci dent were a number of severe bruises from the fall. A number of persons who witnessed the heroic rescue have announced their intention of sending- Peterson's name to the Andrew Carnegie committee, which body recognizes acts of heroism by the presentation of a medal of honor.

Eleven-Year Mystery Cleared by a Lighthouse-Keeper Seacrh to Be Made for Cargo of Gold. SEATTLE! March 12. A special cable to the Times from Juneau. Alaska, says James Currie, keeper of the lighthouse at Eldridge Rock, brings news of the finding of the wreck of the Clara Ne vada, which was lost in 1S97, with 65 passengers on board. The purser was the only one ever found. The exact location of the Nevada's hull has been a mystery these 11 years, until the terrific winds of the last few days exposed the remains of the craft to view. Many human bones have been picked up on the beach in this vicinity. The Ne vada is believed to have had a large amount of gold dust on board, ss several Kiondikera were on the way out with their first clean-ups. Parties here are preparing to search for her treasure. CHECK FOUND WORTHLESS J. II. Johnson, ay Lawyer, Arrested for Passing Bad Paper. J. H. Johnson, a lawyer well known in Police Court circles, was arrested last night by Detective Sergeant Baty, charged with obtaining money under false pretenses. The complainant is Gong Wo, proprietor of a Chinese res taurant on Seventh street between Alder and Morrison, who asserts that after having obtained several meals on credit, Johnson tendered a had 5 check on the German-American Bank in pay ment, and received $2 In change. The check was returned from the bank, marked "no funds." whereupon the Chinese swore out a warrant for John son's arrest. Johnson at first told Sergeant Baty that he had made a micalculatlon. and had thought that he had the money in the bank at the time to meet pay ment for the check, but later admitted there were several more checks which had been issued like the one jriven to the Chinese, and which were likely to be heard from.
