ACCUSED THEFT OF FUNDS
Alleged to HaTe Embeizlcd $1000
, of Willamette School District
Money Said to Have Obtained
Church Money by Forgery.
OREGON CITY. Or., May i. (Special.)
The report is freely circulated that
Otto F. Olson, charged with forgery and
embezzlement, will plead guilty when his
case is called in the Circuit Court to
morrow morning. Olson was arraigned
last week, and entered a plea of not
guilty, hut it is understood that he Is to
bp given his own way and go to the
Penitentiary without the formality of a
trial. The penalty for forgery is not less
than two years, nor more than 30 years.
Olson was for many years superintend
ent of the West Side power plant of the
Portland General Electric Company and
was the trusted clerk of the school dis
trict of Willamette, where he resided.
The directors of the district had such
implicit "faith In Olson that they permitted
him to handle the public funds in a .very
unbusinesslike manner, and he managed
to embezzle something like $100 before
his peculations were discovered.
Keeps Theft Secret for Years. .
Instead of making warrants payable. to
the persons in whose favor they were
appropriated, the money was placed di
rectly In the clerk's hands for disburse
ment, and when several thousand dollars
was given him to pay off the bonded In
debtedness of the district, he calmly put
the money in his pocket and, paying the
Interest on the bonds, he managed to
keep secret the fact that the debt was
not paid for about two years, when the
directors, growing suspicious over the
failure of the bonding company to return
the papers, made some investigations of
their own. disclosing Olson's guilt.
He was arrested on the night of Feb
ruary 13 at 'his home and has been In the
County Jail ever since. Efforts to obtain
ball for him were futile, and the unfor
tunate man. broken in health and spirit,
declared his willingness to plead guilty
and take his medicine, but his family
and friends demurred and until today he
had resolved to fight the case.
Stole From Methodist Church.
After ,his arrest it was discovered that
the school district was only one of the
financial sufferers. He had borrowed
money right and left from his friends and
in more than one instance had forged
' the names of others to notes. It' is stated
that he even robbed the Methodist
Church, of which he was trustee and
financial agent, in this manner. He ob
tained I'Sfl from H. C. Stevens on a note
signed by himself and Rudolph Koerner,
forging the name of the latter, and this
Is the particular case upon which he was
to be tried, although District Attorney
Hedges returned an indictment against
him on the school funds embezzlement.
DIVORCE GIVEN MRS. ADAMS
Wife of Mau Who Substituted Sand
for Gold Is Free.
SEATTLE,' Wash., May 4. (Special.)
Mrs. Emily Clary Adams, the wife of
Georgo Edward Adams, who is now
serving a ten-yesr term In the McNeils
Island Federal Penitentiary for stealing
'something like $200,000 from the United
States Assay Office in this city, of which
he was cashier, was granted a divorce
this afternoon by Superior Judge A. W.
Frater, on the ground that her husband
is a convicted felon. She was given the
custody of their son. born The week .of.
his father's arrest, subject to modification
by order of the court at any time.
The principal exception made 1n the
property; division is that Mrs. Adams Is
given but one-half of their library, which
Is an unusually fine one of elegantly
bound volumes. Judge , Frater was in
clined to reprove Mrs. Adams mildly be
cause of the fact that she has spent
nearly $11,000 since her husband's convic
tion. She claimed, however, that the ex
penditure was neeesjary to protect the
property from the Government officers.
Adams has been In the Penitentiary
since 1!5. The case was a sensational
one. Ills 'method was to remove dust
from deposits made in the Assay Office
and substitute black sand, which tie had
shipped to him In quantities. His posi
tion as cashier permitted him to do this
and had he been more careful the thefts
could have continued without detection
Indefinitely.

BAPTIST BAPTIZES CATHOLIC
Sprinkles Child Xear to Death
From Drinking Carbolic Acid.
ABERDEEN. Wash., May 4. (Spe
cial.) A strange scene was enacted in
the home of Ralph Sturgis this after
noon after an 18-months-old child had
accidentally swallowed carbolic acid.
The mother picked up the child and ran
screaming into the street. A woman
passing, to whom she appealed for
help, took the child back Into the
house and prepared hot lard, which
she poured down its throat. In the
meantime doctors were summoned and
Dr. Hause, of the Baptist Church,
came on the scene. The mother is a
Catholic, and, believing the child would
die, insisted on a baptism. Dr. Hause
performed the rite by sprinkling, de
claring to a crowd that gathered that
it could do no harm and might help
tho mother, who was hysterical. By
the prompt use of lard the life of the
child may be saved. The family came
here from North Dakota a few days
ago. '

SALEM. Or.. May 4. (Special.) Be
cause It Is believed that there Is strong
probability of Marlon County going
"dry" at the Juno election, an effort
was made In the City Council tonight
to give Salem saloons permission to
retain their present closed fronts until
after June 1. An ordinance has been
enacted requiring that saloon fronts
be open to public gaze so that one
standing on the -sidewalk may see the
entire interior of the room where
liquor Is sold. The ordinance will go
Into effect within a few days and some
of the saloon proprietors must do con
siderable work cutting out walls and
partitions. They do not want to do
this If they are to be closed up after
the election. Tho resolution giving
them an extension was defeated.

OREGON CITY, Or., May 4. (Special.)
Charles Palmer, aged 20 years, fell into
a pond, at Scott's sawmill, four miles east
of Molalla Corners this morning and was
drowned in plain sight of his companions
in the logging crew. Palmer was- able to
swim, and little alarm was felt, as such
accidents as -falling off logs are .com
mon, but it is evident that he was dazed,
probably being struck on the head in his
fall, and sank out of -sight. The body was
recovered and Coroner Holman was noti
fied, but after making an investigation of
the facts, decided that it was not neces
sary to hold an inquest. Palmer was a

Catarrh is not merely a disease of the mucous membranes and inner
linings of the body as some of the symptoms would seem to indicate ; it is a
deep-seated blood disease,"ln which, the entire circulation and the greater
part of the system are involtjed. Like all other blood diseases, Catarrh
comes from poisons and impurities accumulating in the circulation which
irritate and inflame the tissues and mucous surfaces, and then the nnpleas
ant symptoms of the disease are manifested. There is a ringing noise in the
ears, a thin, watery discharge from the nostrils, filthy matter drops back into
the throat, the breath has aa offensive odor, and many other annoying and
tinpleasant eymptomS are characteristic of the trouble. Sprays, washes,
inhalations, etc., cannot reach the blood, and are therefore valuable only for
the temporary relief they afford. To cure Catarrh the blood must be purified.
Nothing equals S. S. S. for thi3 purpose! it goes down into the circulation,
removes the catarrhal matter, purifies the blood and makes a lasting cure.
When S. S. S. has removed the cause, the blood being pure arid healthy
nourishes the membranes and tissues instead of irritating them with noxious
matter, and the symptoms all pass away. Book' on Catarrh and any med

A MASTERPIECE OF MODERN PAINTING
Valued at $8000. Now on Exhibition in Our Art Department
This remarkable painting depicts one of th& interesting and pathetic happenings in the life of the
country physician.' The small boy on the bed has evidently met with an accident; but from the
expression on his fac we assume he is more scared than hurt. His brothers and sister are grouped
around the old-fashioned bedstead, gazing in expectancy, and we almost feel the hush of the awe
inspired by th& unusual circumstance. The mother is seated in an attitude of dejection and fear,
holding her apron to her face, anxiously awaiting the verdict of the doctor; the latter, one of the
kindly gentlemen of the "old school," bends over the small patient and is about to turn back the
covers." The reassuring smile on his face is almost sufficient to make us fe-el that he has already
diagnosed the matter as not being a very serious one. The artist has succeeded in throwing into
each figure in this fbmarkable picture an individuality of its own, and the composition and color
ing are beyond criticism. The doctor's face is a most interesting study in character, and one can
read in it the qualities of kind-hearted, sympathetic cheer.
This original painting, seven by nine feet, by R. Atkinson Fox, one of America's foremost artists, is
now on exhibition for the first time on this Coast in our Art Department, fourth floor. We cor
dially invite you to enjoy its beauties and to inspect our most attractive display of Water Colors,
