LOUIS EPPiM IS DEAD
FAMOl'S AS HOTEti MAX IX THE
EARLY DAYS OF PORTLAND.
Furnished Banquet to Yillard, Be
came Manager of Yokohama Hos
telry and Friend of Mikado.
SAN FRANCISCO, June 16. A private
cablegram has been received here an
nouncing the death at Yokohama of
I.ouls Epplnger, manager of the Grand
Hotel In that city ana one of the best
known hotel men on the Pacific Coast
and in the Orient. Mr. Eppinger was 77
years of age.
Formerly In business In San Francisco
and Portland in the '70s. Mr. Eppinger
has for the past IS years been the man
ager of the Grand Hotel in Yokohama,
the hostelry at which nearly all Euro
peans and Americana stopped when In
that city. He was ott of the best-known
Americans in the Orient, had a wide ac
quaintance not only on the Pacific Coast
but In Japan, China and the Philippines.
Mr. Eppinger enjoyed the confidence of
the Japanese governmenf and was deco
rated by the Mikado for having sent all
his employes to the army in the Japanese-Russian
war on full pay and for
other assistance rendered to the govern
ment. Mr. Eppinger came to San Francisco In
March on a visit and had but recently
returned to Yokohama.
Louis Epplng-er was at. one time a
well-known restaurant and hotel pro
prietor of this city. He came to Port
land in 1S78 from San Francisco, where
the panic of that year ruined him
financially. Soon-after his arrival In
this city he opened a restaurant In the
Leonard block at First and Ankeny
streets. In Its service and appoint
ments it was much superior to any
thing of its class in' existence at that
time. Old residents declare that It has
never been surpassed. It was In this
restaurant that the banquet was ten
dered to President Henry Villard, of
the Northern Pacific, upon the com
pletion of that line. The place, how
ever was not a success and within a
year was closed.
Mr. Eppinger then took charge of the
GUman Hotel and later assumed the
management of the Esmond Hotel. In
1885 he removed to Salt Lake, where he
had charge of the diners for the Union
Pacific Jn 1SS8 he went to Yokohama
and later took charge of the Grand
Hotel in that city. On account of age
and failing sight he relinquished the
management of that hostlery, but con
tinued to reside there.
SAFECRACKERS AT MILTON
Smash Combination, but Are Unable
w to Secure Any Coin.
MILTON, Or.. June 16. (Special.)-An
unsuccessful attempt was made last
night to burglarize the safe at the O. K.
& N. depot at this place. Tools secured
from a blacksmith shop were used to
break the combination knob from the
safe. The robbers were either scared
away or were unable to get into the eafe,
but they left it in such a condition that
it will require the services of an expert
to open it. An p. R. & N. detective is
here working on the case, but there
seems to be no clew. However, a hobo
suspect is being held for investigation.
American Auto's Progress.
NERTCHINSK. Asiatic Russia. June
16. The American motor car in the New-York-to-Barls
automobile race, passed
through here at 9 o'clock this morning.
The German car left at 9:30.
COPELAND CASE REVERSED
Supreme Court Overrules Demurrer
Granted by McBrlde.
SALEM, Or., June 16. (Special.)
Two appealed cases were decided by
the Supreme Court today, the lower
court being reversed in each Instance.
The most important case was that of
Richard Wills and others against the
Nehalem Coal Company and M. S. Cope
land, from Clatsop County. This suit
was the outcome of a coal mining proj
ect promoted by W. H. Copeland. Mr.
Copeland secured an option on a tract
of land believed to contain coal, the
price being fixed at $12,000. He then
organized the Nehalem Coal Company
with a capital stock of $15,000, he subscribing-
for shares to the amount of
$100, and his wife, M. S. Copeland,
$7500. so that they controlled a major
ity of the stock. They then sold stock
and used the proceeds to buy the land,
but took it in the name of M. S. Cope
land, who transferred it to the company
at a consideration'of $87,000. she taking
as pay the 750 shares of stock and a
note for $12,000. Four years later this
suit was brought to either have her
stock canceled or compel her to pay
for it. In the lower court Judge Mc
Brlde sustained a demurrer to the com
plaint, but on appeal the Supreme
Court. In an opinion by Commissioner
Slater, holds that the complaint states
facts sufficient to entitle plaintiffs to
relief. The case is therefore remanded
with instructions to overrule the de
murrer. Louis Sommer. N. C. Haskell and Her
man Fuchs. respondents, vs. Charles A.
Compton and W. F. Compton. appellees,
from Baker County. William Smith
Judge, reversed and remanded: opinion
by Justice Eakln.
This was a suit to secure possessfon
of certain real property. The case is
reversed because of errors In the court
below in admitting evidence and In
giving Instructions to the jury.
Georgia Beats Coaling Record.
WASHINGTON. June 16. A report
received at the Navy Department states
that the battleship Georgia has made
the world's coaling record, taking on
board 1779 tons of coal in 5 hours and
12 minutes. In the best hour, 458 tons
were taken on board. The ship is on
the Pacific Coast.
Cfemous Old Hotel Doomed.
NB YORK. June 16. The third of
New York's old hotels to capitulate
within" two months, the Everett House,
at Fourth and Seventeenth streets, closed
its doors at 8 o'clock last night. It will
":vn pIhco to a 20-story office building.
The Everett was built and first ocou
pi J as hotel In 1853. It was named
after Edward Everett, then at the height
of his fame. The most notable person
ever entertained in the hotel was King
Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, and
his quarters on the third floor have since
been known as the "Prince's suite."
Every woman covet
shapely, pretty figure, and
many of them deplore tha
loss of their girlish form
after marriage. The bearing
of children ii often dtstructi
to the mother' shapeliness
AH of thi can be avoided,
however, by the use of Mother's Friend before baby comes, as this
great liniment alway prepares the body for the strain upon it, and
preserves the symmetry of her form. Mother' Friend overcomes all tho
danger of child-birth, and carries the expectant mother safely through
this critical period without pain. It is woman's greatest blessing.
