THIEF FOUND GUILT!
R. Hill Is Convicted of Rob
bing Foreigner.
JURY RETURNS . VERDICT
Court Kails to Believe That Charles
Isakson Gave Hill Money and
Hill 3Iust Pay the Pen
. alty of the liaw.
' Richard Hill, accused of stealing $225
from Charles Isalfson on February 13,
was convicted by a jury in Judge Cle
land's department of the Circuit Court
yesterday. The theft took place in the
Dewey House, Third and Burnside streets.
It appeared from the testimony that Hill,
Isakson and a third man, a soldier, had
been drinking in Hill's room, in the com
pany of two women.
After a time, Isakson missed JTOO, which
he said he had with him. He was argu
ing with the soldier in the hall over the
matter, when two plainclothes men ar
rived, asked what the trouble was, and
were told by Isakson he had lost his
money. All three were taken to the Po
lice Station, and Hill declared the money
had been left at the Richelieu saloon.
It being a Sunday morning the . bartender
could not be found, and Hill is said to
have afterward drawn 225 of the money
from his pocket.
It was Hill's contention that Isakson
crave him the money when he realized
that he was becoming drunk. Deputy
District Attorney Vreeland prosecuted the
case. The jury Included: Charles Ander
son, T. X. Hagenburgher. W. R. Bridges,
Martin Holman. Charles M. Brink, W. A.
Fordyce, E. H. Hobbs, E. M. Angel,
George C. Barclay, James Peterson, J. W.
iArm strong and C. R. Kane.
BAVAGK BONDSMEN RELIEVED
Jrand Not Proved In Accounts of
Long Absent Official.
Eight years after the suit was be
gun in the United States Court and
about nine years after Myron H. Sav
age, ex-superintendent of the Indian
Industrial School at Paris, Cal., dis
appeared from the haunts which had
known him many years, the United
States Court yesterday declared that
fraud In his accounts had not been
proved.
The decision was rendered by Judge
Bean, and had the effect of putting an
end to the . efforts of the Government
to question the accounts of the former
Indian Department official. The suit
was directed against his bondsmen. Dr.
J. H. Minthorn, of Xewport, and Ben
jamin S. Crook, of Portland.
Four years after Savage retired from
office and following his disappearance,
an audit of his accounts at the Indian
school was ordered by the Department.
A special agent was sent to Paris and
a number of affidavits secured to the
effect that Savage had paid smaller
amounts for certain supplies than were
set out in the vouchers submitted with
his accounts. Among the items upon
which the Government based its case
was the purchase of a team of horses
for $525, when, as a matter of fact,
he secured the trotters for $500. Sav
age was also accused of appropriating
60 cents in an account for the crushing
of barley and $20 in the purchase of
a buggy. Composed of such items the
total amount of illegitimate profit
charged to have been gained by Sav
age approximated $8000.
In presenting the matter to the court
the Government failed to produce wit
nesses, but relied upon affidavits and
copies of the accounts as prepared in
the Washington office. In passing upon
the case Judge Bean held that it is
Incumbent upon the Government, as
well as any other lttlgant, to prove
Its case. The matter was dismissed.
Without waiting to face the inquiry
into his accounts and methods of book
keeping, Savage left Oregon and . has
not since been located. The Govern
ment has never made any esrTort to ap
prehend him, the bondsmen of the for
mer official having borne all the ex
pense of the long-drawn-out. litigation.

A Jury was selected in Judge Gan
tenbein's department of the Circuit
Court yesterday to try the damage
'suit' of Sarah M. Strucken against the
Portland Railway. Light & Power Com
pany, in which she demands $20,000 for
a broken femur.
She alleges that on March 16. last

when it was suddenly started forward
with a series of jerks, throwing her
to the pavement. She declares the con
ductor stood within easy reach, but
Jailed to catch her.
As an answer, the company's officials
declare that the conductor told Mrs.
Strucken and a number of others,
standing on the corner, to take the next
car, but that she boarded the car, to
discover, after a few seconds, that her
daughter had been left. They say she
stepped directly off upon the pave
ment without waiting for the car to

HVIFE DENIES "AFFINITY" PLEA
Mrs. Margaret Jensen Thinks
"Hubby" Has Iost Reason.
Mrs. Margaret E. Jensen suggests in
en affidavit filed In the Circuit Court
yesterday that her husband, Ernest V.
Jensen, may have lost his reason be
cause he charges her with being in
fatuated with W. A. Hall.
"My husband states that we lived
happily together until about four years
ago, when I took up with W. A. Hall,"
says Mrs. Jensen. "Now, if defendant
has not absolutely lost his reason or Is
not utterly depraved, he knows that I
did not take up with Hall four years
ago, but that 14 years ago he took me,
With the rest of my sisters and broth
ers, into his family and treated us the
Game as his children."
On her way to visit . her sister at
Trout Lake, Wash., Mrs. Jensen admits
that she stopped with Hall while in
Hood River, registering as "Mr. Hall
and family." She says she took care of
the children.

COURTS MAY CLOSE TOR GAME
Judges Probably Will Attend Open
ing of Season Today.
Although the Courthouse will be open,
it is not probable that very much Judi
cial business will be transacted today, for
the most of the Circuit Court judges are
planning on going to the ball game.
Judge Bronaugh said yesterday he
would adjourn Juvenile Court until to
morrow. Judge Gantenbein was non-committal
last night. Judge Cleland had almost
made up his mind to go, ad Judge
Gatens said he would accept an invita
tioin which had been extended to him
to ride in the parade. Presiding Judge
Morrow did not commit himself, but it
is probable that he will leave his task
early enough to reach the ball ground
before the game commences.
F. A. JACOBS DEMANDS $50,000

pany with having repudiated a con

ALASKA CAMP OVERRATED
Charles E. Masson Discredits Tales
About Iditarod.
Flattering reports received from Fair
banks, Alaska, about the mining oppor
tunities in the new district of Iditarod,
were discredited' yesterday by Charles' B.
Masson, of this city, who has spent sev
eral years in the mines' of Alaska, and
has friends at the new district who are
keeping him ' Informed concerning the
conditions there.
Mr. Mas3on said yesterday that he
would like to warn men from being at
tracted to the new field, which is nothing
like it has been represented. He believes
that the conditions in the new district
are being misrepresented through the
mine owners of the place, who want
cheap labor, and by Seattle merchants,
who would profit by a mining boom at
that place.
"The story coming from Fairbanks that
they are getting 25 cents to the pan of
dirt at Iditarod," said Mr. Maseon, "must
be wrong, for in a letter I received from
there, written on February 22, 5 cents a
pan was the best that had been made at
that time.
"My friends at Iditarod write me that
there were 1200 idle men at that place
this Winter, and that as1 these are now
without work and must cook for them
selves1; many of the restaurants had
closed up, and others had taken smaller
quarters-.''

Portland musical circles as well as
theatrical circles have been benefited by
the appointment of Charles P. Elliott as
the new manager of the Orpheum
Theater., as Mrs. Elliott, who came to
Portland with her husband yesterday, is
a contralto soloist with a wide reputation
In the Middle West.
Mr. Elliott is pleased with his new
theater and likes Portland so well that he
is now planning to establish his perman
ent home here. He has been in tls
theatrical business for 25 years as a. man
ager and has followed almost every other
line of the work. Until recently he had
been engaged as the manager for Robert
B. Mantell, which position he gave up to
accept the management of the Portland
Orpheum Theater, which was offered him
by John Considine, of the firm of Sullivan
& Considine, in Seattle, two weeks ago.
He continued with Mr. Mantell to Spo
kane and came here from that city.
"The entire country is leaning In the
direction of vaudeville these days," said
Mr. Elliott last evening. "Vaudeville is
the real American idea, and it Is on ac
count of the great growth in popularity
of vaudeville that I have seen fit to drop
the 'legitimate' and take up this line here.
Vaudeville started not many years ago as
an experiment. It was a success from the
start. At first the regulars did not re
gard vaudeville as a serious theatrical
venture and thought the wave which was
sweeping the country was ephemeral.
Then It became apparent that it had come
to stay and now the regulars are be

MANY THEFTS ADMITTED
SNEAKTHIEF THOUGHT TO BE
BOLD BURGLAR.
Fuse and Dynamite Caps for Safe
Blowing Found in Room of
Edgar Wilson.
Investigations by Detectives Coleman
and Snow into the case of Edgar Wilson,
captured as a hotel sneakthief Saturday
afternoon, indicate that the prisoner is a
professional burglar, safecracker and all
around thief of considerable reputation.
Fuse and dynamite caps for blowing
safes were found among his effects, as
were the proceeds of at least six bur
glaries with a lot of unidentified articles
unclaimed.
Wilson has served a term of five years
in Walla Walla, for burglary. He was
released in 1907. He travels under the
alias of Charles Grandstrom. So far, the
following burglaries have been admitted
by Wilson: Seven Corners barber shop,
the houseboat of R. Klausner, foot of
Holgate street: the room of E. B. Griffin,
Heiler building, corner of Grand avenue
and Hawthorne avenues; the saloon of M.
Meister, corner of East Twenty-first and
Division streets; the rooms of R. W.
Goodwin, 2SOV4 Grand avenue, and rooms
of George L. Thomas, a't 23V4 Grand
avenue.
Wilson denies ownership of the cracks
man's outfit and says it is the property
of a man known as Harvey Martin, who
is now out of the city. Martin was dis
charged from the Salem Penitentiary in
February, and, according to Wilson, not
only had a safecracking outfit found in
his effects, but had a large quantity of
nitro-glycerine buried outside the city.
Wilson, was captured by A. K. Lehman
and his son Oscar, who conduct a rooming-house
at 2S0V4 Grand avenue. Wilson
was in the act of ransacking the room
of R. W. Goodwin when the lodging
house proprietor came upon him. Mr.
Lehman grabbed him, called for assist
ance and held him until the arrival of
the police. Wilson was held to await
the action of the grand jury yesterday in
Municipal Court.
METHODIST HOSPITAL DUE
Steps Toward Home for Sick Urged
at Ministerial Meeting.
Immediate steps toward the establish
ment of a Methodist hospital were urged
by Jr. Benjamin Young yesterday in his
address before the Methodist Ministerial
Association.
"The Needs of Portland Methodism"
was his subject. He also declared him
self in favor of less machinery in the
church, and said the professional grouch
is worthless. He said:
Men who are ready to criticise the church
forget how long it has taken to make it as
grod as it is. Thus age is different from the
previous onfl and from them we have profited.
The present methods of reaching the people
sre fairly successful. But it Is not so much
the method as the man, and individual
churchmen all over the world should be made
to feel that resrponstbility rest upon them.
The "old grouch' who sits back in a corner
and criticises is cf no use to the church.
The tendency o preachers is to try to do
work hy multiplied machinery such as or
ganization and reorganization of bodies. All
st long the line there is too much of this, and
this tends to overcome the personal effort. An
other thing that will not make the successful
preacher is the use of bizarre or sensational
methods. Another is the use of books to ex
cess. Books are all right as long as they are
only used to suggest something to us, but by
too much study of too many books we are
very apt to lose our individuality. And if this
goes on we will become mere vaudeville or
?toek performers. We cannot serve the world
by fads.
And another thing: If this city is to have
oOO.ooo people soon, we should establish a
Methodist hospital. No longer should the
bugaboo of the mistakes and failures of the
past in that direction -e allowed to prevent
our starting, li only in an humble way.
THOUSANDS ARE COMING
I.ocal Hibernians Expect 15,000
Guests in Portland in July.
Out of 1100 letters sentout by the Com
mercial Club to delegates to the National
convention of the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians, to be held here July 19 to 24, re
plies have been received from more than
two-thirds. It Is now believed, according
to E. H. Deery, secretary of the conven
tlon committee of the local organization.
as to stamp that part of theatricals in
America at least as the leading class of
show work now in existence.
"I have been in the show business for
25 years now. ever since I was a young
ster, and in every capacity except actor.
I was for 13 years manager of the Craw
ford circuit in Kansas, Missouri and Ne
braska. For the next eight years I was
the manager for Carl Hopkins' vaudeville
circuit and for the last four years have
been, with William A. Brady, managing
Wilton Lackaye, "The Man of The Hour"
and Richard Mantell.
"I started in when I was 15 years old as
an usher. Then I was given the conces
sion of handling the sale of the lemonade
and fans in the theater. One day, when
business was a little slack, I gave the
janitor 25 cents to build a fire in the
basement furnace. It was a warm day
and the demand for lemonade and fans
went up. The manager found out my
scheme and took away my concession, but
I think I showed the earmarks of being
a businessman when I started in.
"After that, I became treasurer, then
assistant manager and later manager of
a theater and for 25 years have been ac
tively in business as a theatrical man
ager." Mrs. Elliott will prove a valuable addi
tion to the musical world In Portland.
She has been singing as soloist in the
Catholic Cathedral at St. Louis. She was
a member of the Symphony Society in St.
Iouis where she gained an enviabie repu
tation by singing ATarmen at tile Odeon
auditorium. Portland music lovers will
doubtless soon bj given an opportunity to
hear Mri. Elliott.
Your Salary Alone Will Never Make You
Independent, but a Small Portion of It
Wisely Invested in Real Estate Will Be
the Foundation of Your Fortune.
Real estate is the surest of all investments the safest of all security) Most of ttie world 's.laTest fortunes
have been founded on real estate investment. The man who depends on his salary alone to make him
independent or to get enough to start him in a business of his own, will find it mighty slow work and very
uncertain. If he would invest a small part of his earnings .judiciously in real estate, he could soon be
making as much money from his investment as his salary amounts to. This is not a theory but an absolute
fact. It has been proven time and time again right here in Portland. Nine out of ten men stand back and
watch the tenth one spend a part of his salary each month in real estate and make big money from it.
Then they wonder why he is so lucky and they are not. It is not luck. It is business foresight, arid you
can do the same if you will. We have studied the situation in Portland and we know that a man cannot
go wrong if he invests wisely. You probably know this also. Then why not invest in Laurelhurst ' NOW -?

ises, we must have money to carry them

NEW FIRE STATIONS DUE
Buildings In Construction Bids
Sought on Auto Hosecarts.
Portlands Fire Department will soon
have three more modern engine-houses,
fully equipped. These will be at Mount
Tabor. North Alblna and at Fourteenth

is probable some of this etyle will be
purchased.
The fire committee of the Executive
Board has also recommended the con
struction of a steel Are boat and the
Installation of reinforcing mains for the
downtown districts, which will give to
the waterfront and the wholesale and
retails centers excellent protection.
The flreboat. which will be of steel, and
the reinforcing mains will cost approxi

issue of that sum. The fire committee,
consisting of John F. O'Shea, Samuel
Connell and S. C. Pier, has Indorsed the
plans and instructed Chief Campbell to
secure a site for the location of the
vessel.

So So St
The causa of Rheumatism Is an excess of uric acid In the blood. The
erratic impurity gets into the circulation by absorption, usually because of con
stipation, weak kidneys, and other systemic irregularities. Then the blood be
comes weak and sour and irritating urate particles are formed in this vital fluid.
IVhen in this Impure condition the blood can not furnish the necessary amount of
nourishment to the different muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments of the body.
Instead it constantly steeps them in the briny acrid matter, and the gritty, urate
particles collect in the joints, which causes the pains, aches and soreness of
Rheumatism. Liniments, plasters, etc. may relieve the acute pain of an attack
of Bheumatism, but such treatment does not reach the blood and therefore can
have no permanent good effect. There is but one way to cure Bheumatism and
that is to purify the blood of the acid poison.' S. S. S. goes into the circulation
and attacks the disease at its head. It removes the cause for the reason that it
Is the greatest of all blood purifiers. It filters out every trace of the sour, In
