Held-up. knocked down and robbed within call of the police station, was the experience of John Karus, of 226Vi Burnside street, and Charles Anderson, who lives at First and Clay streets, who encountered three thugs on Second street, near Ankeney street, early yesterday morning. Karus was walking along Second street toward his home. Near Ankenny street he was ap proached by three men who attacked him without warning, knocking him Into the gutter and taking his purse, containing $.15. from his pocket. Anderson, who was half a block in the rear at the time, saw the attack and. with a cry of "police" sprang to the man's assistance. The robbers turned on him and felled him with several vicious blows leaving lumps on his forehead and cheek bones as large as goose eggs. In spite of the fact that this robbery was withing two blocks of the police station and that both men cried loudly no blue coat came in sight. The police rather descredit the reported hold-up.

After this second arrest he confessed to Cap tain Slover that he had appropriated the money from the Hub stores and that he had returned the money to Mr. Strain yesterday morning.

IN HARNESS 25 YEARS Daring Quarter Century He Served The Oregonian Continuously. Tribute to an Able Reporter From a Co - Worker. Edward Lothrop "(Jerry) Coldwell, the oldest reporter of The Oreeonlan, died yesterday morning at his home. 267 Grant street, of paralysis, aged 68. For nearly two years he had been incapacitcd and confined to his bed. The funeral will take place tomorrow morning at 10. Mr. Coldwell was born in Nova Scotia, learned the trade of printer and press man, went to California as a young man and after short residence there, came to Portland, entering the employ of the old Bulletin. Tiring of city life, he moved to Salem and engaged in farming. A few years later he returned to news paper work on th'e old Standard. In he was engaged by The Oregonian as re porter and served continuously in that capacity with uncommon zeal and con spicuous success for a little more than a quarter of a century. He fell in the harness by paralytic stroke In July, 1906, when his active labors ceased. Mr. Coldwell was married in 1S74 to Miss Fannie Barker, of Salem, who survives him. He leaves two children: Orln B. Coldwell, a graduate of Cornell Univer sity and operating superintendent of the Portland Railway. Light & Power Com pany, and Miss Mary Coldwell, well known In amateur musical circles most skillful piano player. as a r " ; I "t-t iimri-ianiSifiaTSiTiiiwtififirt)ii ftrnnmsfi'ri rmr ttm 1 1 i.iin-iTiiiniTtfi.nr. vW Miaiin mm Human ittiil ' TiiiiiM i-MOf' !! I THE LATE EDWARD (JERRY) COLDWELL 1 . ....... LONG-TIME FRIEXB'S TRIBUTE Estimate of the Life and Work ot Jerry Coldwell. As one of his oldest Portland friends and long-time co-worker. I have been asked to write an estimate of Jerry Cold well. Xo apology is needed for employ ing his nickname without quotation points: the thousands who knew nim here are not familiar with the name as writ ten in the family Bible. Jerry Coldwell was the best all-round reporter I ever knew, -and much more. He was philosopher and humorist. On everything he wrote, even to the dry routine of dally news, he put his personal impress. Sometimes It was satirical, oc casionally bitter to the point of extreme severity, often clearly informative, more often quaintly humorous and always in the spirit of self help. On his sympa thetic side, he leaned to every man, woman and child that cultivated the soil either for pleasure, profit or in the strug gle for bread. He loved everything that grew in the earth: his most delightful studies were natural history and botany. Whenever he learned a fact, he felt it his duty to Impart the Information to mankind. .And he never guessed at a fact. He dug wherever he could to get the truth, nor did he weary in its search. For him a noxious weed, a La France rose, the woolly aphis and a stool of wheat had equal interest, and he tried tq teach how to exterminate enemies and improve friends. Jerry had nature constantly in mind. To illustrate: Never a Spring went by these last twenty-five years that he did not write a short "story" about the flow ering almond in the lawn of the late Henry W. Corbett's home opposite the postoffice. He always watched for the first blossom and chronicled It. Yester day when I called at the house of mourn ing, his daughter told me that her father only a few days ago when he felt the balmy wind from the Southland in quired whether the Corbett almond was In bloom. Additional to the news of the day, Jerry was always thinking of other things that readers of his paper oh, he was part and parcel of The Oregonian would like to read, either for amusement or instruction. During the week he would bespatter his notebook wtth memoranda of what James Whitcomb Riley calls the homely things of homely life. These he saved until Sunday when he had no beat to cover. Then he wrote two columns or more, ad libitum, and turned in the copy to the city editor. You would call it miscellany; it could not. under the most hoeral con struction, be classified as news. But it was neer bloodless. Perhaps I can set down from jnemory such a day's grist; maybe the output of different Sundays. A new disease that is killing cherry trees; worries of a bank clerk: sea bathing in "Winter: snow and blackberries on a Portland bush at Christmas time: farmer near Gresham going to establish a seagull farm and get rich selling eggs: difficulty of breed ing Chinese pheasants in captivity; new fertilizer for asparagus beds; rancher at Sauvie's Island harnessing a pair of sturgeons to pull his boat; scientific de-, scription, in popular form, of radium: experience of a Portland man who oper ated on a rooster's throat to prevent crowing at daylight. Jerry wrote naturally. He knew noth ing of the tricks of writing for effect. When he manufactured a story the very simplicity of it made it go. For ex ample: One dull day he wrote half a column about Col. R. C. Judson's newly invented machine by which hens were to be more prolific and the profits of- poultry raisers doubled. Six days after it was published, the New York World's Port land correspondent received a telegram from the Sunday editor asking for fur ther particulars of Col. Judson's machine together with pictures 'and diagrams for a full page story. And Jerry did not care what became of his work after. he finished it. Some times his long stories would be held for a less crowded issue and did not see print for a week. Once when he had looked through the news pages In vain several days for an article that he thought creditable, he almost lost his breath when I showed it to him on the editorial page. Many things that he wrote are worth a place between the covers of a book. Up to six years ago, when he had a fall from a streetcar and suffered concussion of the brain which impaired his facul ties. Jerry could invent more good stuff in a day than an average reporter with a roving detail could gather in a week. Every bit of it was readable, most of it excellent. He very seldom contributed to the waste basket. Jerry had prodigious industry. No day was too long and no distance too great when news was to be ob tained. He was ever careful of his facts. In and out of the office he was "Old Re liable." Jerry was an omniverous reader, and remembered. He knew intimately the "Hundred Best Books" and the other two or three hundred equally good in the Portland Library. After he had finished his day's work which for years ran far into the night, he refreshed himself and added to his store of knowledge by as sociation with masters, ancient and mod ern. His favorites were Herbert Spen cer and Kipling. All his work was, of course, impersonal, for he served at a time when it wasn't the fashion for staff members, corres pondents and contributors to sign their matter. If that had been the custom in his day, Jerry would have been more widely known than any other newspaper man in the Pacific Northwest with the one conspicuous exception the editor of The Oregonian. The most modest of men was Jerry. He put less value on his work than they who read it. If he were alive and could look over the. pages I am writing he would say: "Joe, just put In that I tried to do my best and was always loyal to The Oregonian. Cut the rest out." N. J. LEVINSON. ALARMED BY DESERTIONS DEMOCRATS PLAX TO REAWAK EN PARTY LOYALTY. Will Hold Cnlon , Meeting of Local Clubs Xext Thursday Xight. ' Causes for Apathy. Alarmed by the wholesale desertion of Democratic sons from the party banner and their consorting with Republicans, staunch leaders of the forlorn hope have called a united meeting of the three Democratic clubs of the city for next Thursday in Alisky Hall, at g P. M.. for the purpose of devising plans for leading the erring patriots back to the path of duty and teaching them the pure gospel. So many Democrats are registering as Republicans, or failing to register at all, that the party membership is as lean as a Winter-range cayuse, Just coming into the Springtime. The three clubs are: Multnomah Dem ocratic Club, M. J. Malley, president; Young Men's Democratic Club, John Montag, president, and Bryan Club, George L. Hutehin, president. A big talkfest is expected. E.t S. J. McAllister will make some remarks and others will spring up with oratory to suit the oc casion. Another trouble for the uirterrifled is the question whether to put up a legis lative ticket. Many of the so-called non partisan brethren have been hushing up the talk of such a ticket, planning for Oregonlife THE POLICYHOLDER'S COMPANY The Discriminating Depositor wants interest on his money, and wants to know Aat his principal is secure.

But this has roused to ac tion some of the old-time foes of fusion and non-JefTersonlan Democrats. They cite that the long policy of awarding Democratic jobs to" Republicans is turn ing many of the sons of the Democrats to the Courthouse to register as Repub licans, in order to be in line for the dis tribution of loaves and fishes. And they complain that the young men once having gone over, forget to come back. The re sult Is that while a few Democrats like Chamberlain, Manning, Word and Lane win pffices. the party faith languishes. Up to this time there has been no movement for a Democratic legislative ticket. It is explained that certain lead ers of the party have been striving to prevent nomination of candidates at the primaries. For this reason it has seemed that the election ballot in June will be barren of straight Democrats, and that in their place will appear the names of non-partisans. PERSONALMENTION.
