BOTH ARE TAKEN TO JAIL Young Yakima Woman Changes Her Mind After Romantic Elopement and Oriental Seeks to Change Her Mind by Force. 'G. Kageyama. a Japanese with a mis sion education, and Miss Elsie Preston, daughter of an American farmer, living at Yakima. Wash., are sojourning In the City Jail as the sequel to a romantic elopement from Yakima, a week ago. When the two were arrested, the Japan ese had the girl Imprisoned at a Jap anese rooming-house at Sixth and Couch streets and was holding her against her will until she reconsidered a sudden change of mind about marrying him. Al though they eloped with the plan of be ing married In Portland or at Vancouver. Wash.. Kageyama says" the girl changed her mind after securing at his expense a J50 dress and other finery, which cost htm about $100. The pair say tney left Yakima early last week because of strong opposition to the match. Kageyama Is the owner of a Yakima boarding-house and has con siderable money. He left his place to get along as best it might with the young woman, of whom he had long been enamored. Paaaersby at the Japanese boarding- house here saw the girl three successive days from a window and observed that she seemed In distress. The matter was reported to the police and Detective Price Invaded the place Sunday, breaking; In the door. The girl begged him to take her away from the place, saying she was being held against her will. Her meals were carried to her, she said, by a coun tryman of Kageymama's who was care ful to lock the door after each visit with food. Kageyama, an intelligent Japanese of 25. explained in excellent English that he wished to marry the girl, that she had promised to marry him and that they left Yakima for that purpose. But no sooner had he bought her the $50 dress, a pair of shoes and some cheap (Jewelry, than she told him she had changed her mind and was going back to Yakima. Feeling that he had been wronged, he locked her up to give her time to change her mind, he said. The elopers were arraigned In the Municipal Court yesterday forenoon, on a statutory charge, to which both" en tered pleas of guilty. Ijiter. . however, at the Instance of friends of the girl, the plea was withdrawn in her case and a trial asked for today.

OWNER MAKES ENTRIES Southern Woman Will Pit Her Fancy Imported Animals Against the ' Best In the ' Northwest at Local Livestock Show. The Shetland ponies of California will bo pitted against the finest stock in Ore gon at the Pacific National meet to be held here the third week of September. What is regarded as one of the handsom est and finest bred Shetland herds on the Pacific Coast was offered to the Country Club and Livestock Association for com petition in the pony .division, yesterday, by their owner, a woman of Southern Cal ifornia, whose name is withheld at her own request. She arrived in Portland Sunday and submitted to the Association pictures, pedigrees and lists of prizes won by her string with the additional infor mation that she expected to spend the balance of the Summer at Portland and at the beach resorts and would have her Shetlands here a week or two before-the show. These entries are all imoorted and were accepted with alacrity jfhen their breeding was shown to the c rftcials of the Association. Such interest in the first exposition that Portland has had. particularly in the fancy show classes Is considered the best evidence that no similar exhibition in Uie West will be as representative of all the divisions and classifications of livestock, horses, cattle, sheep, swine and otherwise as the Initial meet held here. The Willamette Valley, yesterday, con tributed several pens of high-class swine, and within the past week several flocks of fine Angora goats have been listed with the committee. This, of course, is in addition to. the entries in the other divisions which are coming in in a most satisfactory manner. Secretary G. A. Westgate, of the Coun try Club and Livestock Association, yes terday made application to Postmaster Mlnto for the establishment of a tempor ary postal substation on the Country Club grounds during the race meet, set ting forth that there would be a consider able permanent population at the tract, and with several hundred people there temporarily, not only during the race week, but a week or mora before and for about the same period afterward. Re quest was made for a substation where stamps and money orders could be pur chased and where letters and -other mall might be registered, and also where mall might be collected and delivered at reg ular hours during the week. Postmaster Minto says that he will forward the re quest to the Postofflce Department forth with with the proper recommendation. Superintendent F. A. Brooker. in charge of all contracts for construction work, covering buildings, grandstand and race track, will have his permanent head quarters established at the track not later than August 1. with telephones and tele graph wires Installed. .

SOCIALISTS WILL FIGHT SAY THEY ABE DENIED FREE DOM OF SPEECH. Five Strident Curb-Stone. Orators Arrested and Threaten to Take Case to -Highest Court. Socialists, arrested Sunday night for refusing to disperse when so ordered by the police at a street meeting, will make a legal fight on the minor charges against them in the Municipal Court to day. The services of C. E. S. Wood have been secured and they are pre pared to carry the matter .to the Supreme Court if necessary. Five arrests were made by the police: Three men, James Jackson, R. C. Good win and A. Lloyd, are charged with re fusing to move on when so ordered. Two others, Harry Lloyd and E. L. Clossett. are charged with having Interfered with an officer. That ordering a street congregation, to disperse is an encroachment on the right of free speech is the view maintained by Socialists, and an opinion handetf down by a California court to that effect Is part of the legal ammunition which will be fired in the fight on the charges against these men. Antipathy towards Socialism is said by the prisoners to have been responsible for the conduct of Sergeant Cole and a squad of officers in breaking up their meeting at fourth and Alder early Sun day night. The Socialists were blockad ing the street and sidewalk and making night hideous with their strident oratory Is the reply of the officers. Bitter feeling was aroused when the assemblage was moved on by the squad from the police station. The meeting was an enthusiastic one, and had at tracted about 300 men. There was much applause and some cheering. Complaint was made to the police and Sergeant Cole, who had disbanded similar meet ings on several occasions, took three patrolmen with him. Making his. way through the crowd he notified the speaker that the sidewalk was being blockaded In violation of the law. When this in formation was transmitted to the crowd some very uncomplimentaray things were said. Three men absolutely refused to move when so ordered and were put under arrest. H-arry Lloyd and Clossett attempted, to Interfere and were taken along. ' The case was to have been heard yes terday morning, but postponement was asked until today. TO REGULATE R0WB0ATS Councilman Belding Proposes to Regulate Size and Construction. Councilman Beldlng announced yes terday that he will introduce before the City Council an ordinance regulating the size and construction of rowboats on the Willamette River, if City At torney Kavanaugh holds that the mu nicipal authority extends this far. This Mr. Beldlng wishes to do because of drownings in the harbor of late. He states his belief that If the city can govern this matter a great benefit will result. "It seems to me," said Councilman Belding. "that It is high time for the city to make an attempt to stop the loss of life on the river. It must be that there is something wrong with the boats that are used, as it appears that the least little thing upsets them, and I am going to investigate, with a view to introducing an ordinance to govern -the size and pattern of row boats, at least those rented from the boathouses. The loss of life from over turned boats here is growing, and must be remedied, if there is any pos sible way In which to do it. Of course, we probably cannot regulate private boats, but we can look into the matter and. do what we find lies within our province." Will Investigate Drowning. An Investigation Into the drowning of Miss Thetta Stephens In the Wll lamette River Sunday night will be) conducted by the Government at the) offices of Inspectors Edwards and Fuller. Miss Stephens . was out row-! ing with B. J. Jean net. of 462 Front street, when the boat was overturned by a towline between the steame Vulcan and a raft of logs which waa) being, taken up the river. The girl was drowned at once and Jeannet saved himself by grasping - the raft' and clinging there. The girl's- body was recovered from the river several hours later. . Jeannet says he had not warning of the raft or towline, or the) accident would not have occurred. Committed to the Asylum. JACKSONVILLE. Or., July 27. Spe cial.) J. B.
