Jones, for 18 years a col lector for The Oregonian. died sud denly at his home. 325 Mill street, at 9:30 o'clock last night. The sudden death of Mr. Jonea came as a severe shock to the members of his family, as well as to his many friends made during his residence of 20 years in Portland. He was not believed to be dangerously ill, although he resigned his position one week ago on account of his health, which had not been good since he underwent an operation about a year ago. Friday he complained of feeling weak, but ae his condition was other wise normal, no fears were entertained, and Saturday he was ufi and around the house. Last night he was attacked by a sinking spell and succumbed a few hours later. His daughter. Miss Ethel -Jones, known on the stage as Miss Ethel Van Waldron. is on her way home from Spokane and Is due to ar rlve this morning.

Strelb has ,long aspired to he they head of the city gov ernment, but Mayor Shindler stood in his wav. and two years ago he helped the Mayor to re-election against Isaao JIullan, who was overwhelmingly de feated. There was some criticism at that time about the staying qualities of the Mayor and in order to quiet this cry. the Mayor issued the following declaration, which is now being used against him: December 2. 1906. To the Voters of Mil waukle: I hereby ask your support m the election to be held today.
