J P. Webb, conrlcted murderer
f William A. Johnson. waa on the
witness stand all day yesterday tell-
in; of the traaedy and endeavoring to
ht Mrs. Cmrrte Kersh from tne name
mans noose. Once during the exami
nation the accused woman shed a few
tears. She looked hacicard and worn.
Oenuty District Attorney FttxRerald
pat on a few witnesses In rebuttal
after toeneca routs counsel lor
Kersh. had rested his case without
r-larinc her on the stand. The tran
script of her testimony plven at the
former trial and read to the Jury, was
sufficient, said Attorney louts.
All the evidence Is now before the
Jury and as In the first trial, the Jury
will take the case under advisement
tonlsht. The state and defense will
be allowed two and a half hours each
for argument.
All standing room was taken In the
courtroom yesterday, as the last wit
ness was heard. Webb parried well as
reouty Fltxaerald attacked his testi
mony, first on this side, then on that.
But the witness said he did not know
whether he locked the trunk contain
Ins Johnson's body with Mrs. Keihs
key or with his own. He had a key
which would fit almost any trunk, he
said. One of the Jurors asked him
where It was. and he said the police
took It when thry searched him. The
state put on evidence to show that
everything taken from htra'waa re
turned. Another point about which he was
uncertain was as to whether he put a
nw pillow on the bed In room 11$. at
the New Grand Central Hotel, where
Johnson waa murdered. Mrs. Tilly, the
housekeeper, said she found sheets ana
a pillow-slip which did not belong to
the hotel an tne Ml. tne oiooa-siaincu
mattress having; been turned over.
The state's contention la that Mrs.
Kersh. not Webb, made up the bed
while he and Mrs. Kersh's child. Willie.
went to the depot with the truna con
taining Johnson's body.
Webb didn't know why he registered
at the hotel aa A. t. rowers, of .Nome.
Alaska. He rea-lstered under that
name at Omaha 1 or 12 years alto, be

Bf SCHOOL BOARD
Naval Militia Charged With
Misusing Privilege of Lin
coln High School.
GIRLS OGLED, NOISE MADE
Principal Complains Also That To
bacco Is Csed Superannuated
Janitors to Be Superseded.
Principals Are lined.
The young men of the Oregon Naval
Reserve, to whom the use of a portion of
the Lincoln High School was donated one
night a week for their drills, are In dis
repute with the Board of Education. The
Board at Its meeting yesterday afternoon
instructed Clerk Thomas to write Com
mander McXulty, of the Reserve, a let
ter informing him that the further use
of the building will not be permitted un
l?ss the behavior of his men when in the
building improve materially.
The subject came up on oral com
plaint of Q. W. Henderson, In charge
of the night classes of the high
school, who charged that the Naval Re
servist "ogle" the young women at
tending night clauses. Jostle them In the
hnll and frequently rookc rude remarks.
He charged that the young men make so
much noise that the work of the night
classes Is interfered with and also that
they use tobacco in the building. D. A.
Grout. Assistant Superintendent of City
Schools, Informed the Board that he had
moved the ReacrvlutB to the basement,
but that they were still objectionable and
made too much noise.
Warning Is Compromise.
II. C. Campbell and I. N. Flclschner
were In favor of turning the Reservists
out at once, but R. L. Sahln opposed this
on the ground that the Reserve should
be encouraged If poeslhle. After consid
erable discupsion the Board compromised
on the warning.
11. C. Campbell and J. V. Beach were
appointed a committee to take up with
a committee from the Civic Council the
question of drafting a new school law.
This action followed a conference be
tween Mr. Campbell anil Mr. Beach, rep
resenting the Board of Education, and
L. E. Latourette, Allan R. Joy, Frank
Motter and J. H. HaAk, representing the
Civic Council, In Mr. Beach's offices
earlier In the afternoon.
Complaint of poor Janitor service In
the Shaver- School leA to the Issuance of
Instruction to Clerk Thomas to llnd a
substitute for Albert Gee, whom the
Board decided It would be better to re
place at the end of the present school
term. Gee is infirm and is minus the
use of one hand, which has been partly
amputated. Mr. Grout said that Gee
worked hard, but was not equal to the
task of taking care of a large school. The
sentiment of the membem of the Board
waa that the services of other Janitors
who are partially Incapacitated by Age
are to be dispensed with. There was
some talk of transferring Mr. Gee to a
smaller school or securing him light em
ployment elsewhere, but It ended with
out definite action.
Sewing Instructors Make Request.
The request of Eleanor Harris, Laura
Hcndershott and Gertrude Esser. assist
ant supervisor of sewing in the high
schools, to be admitted a members of
the facultlea of the various schools In
which they are employed, wa referred to
the finance committee. The requests re
ceived the support of Mrs. L. W. Sitton.
chairman of the Board. Admission as
members of the faculties would mean
increase of salaries.
A. L. Clarke. G. W. Henderson, A. F.
Herschner, R. R. Steele and L. A. Wiley,
principal, petitioned for the remission
of tines assessed against them for fail
ure to hold or report fire drills in their
schools. The subject was referred to the
finance committee, which isi expected not
to take favorable action. The Board has
a system of fining a principal $5 for fail
ure to hold or report fire drill.
Sellvrood Asks Purchase.,
The petition of Peter Hume and others,
or tho 8ellwood Commercial Club, asking
that tho Board buy the rest of tho block
on which the 8'llwood School stnnds.
mas referred to the building committee
without discussion.
A copy of a report prepared by a com
mittee of tho Civic Council reflecting on
the character of school buildings in the
city, the method of letting contracts and
the alleged waste of money in school
building construction was sent back to
the secretary of that body to be doted,
addresned and signed.
Tho Board agreed to wire the base
ment of the Shaver School and pecmit its
use by tho Shaver Boys' Club two nights
a week, provided that organization is
willing to pay for the electric current
consumed. The Board has the legal right
to permit the use of school buildings for
other tliaji school purposes, but Is espe
cially debarred from assuming any addi
tional expense which may be Incurred.
Ernest A. Attlx, president of the Un-
coln High School class of 1911, received
permission to hold a candy sule in the

Good Things in Markets
BY LILIAN TINULB.
THE markets have a thoroughly holi
day aspect this week, for. although
some of the Christmas specialties havo
not yet arrived, there is already an ex
tra display of the choicest "flesh, fish.
fowl and good red herring," side by side
with the apples, oranges. nuts and
sweetmeats necessary for the work and
pleasures of Santa Claus.
"The true essentials Of a least are
fun and feed," says Oliver Wendell
Holme, and most housekeepers are busy
planning for both. Tiny Jap oranges
and I-ady apples for the decoration of
Christmas trees, are almost as much to
the fore as are the nuts and candy de
manded by every self-respecting stock
ing. Apples of larger size are to be had

berries, but wa told that some were ex
pected to arrive shortly.
The list of vegcaDies ia snout tne

ing In more freely and cost To cents to $1
each. Snipe and plover are to be had
at to 75 cents a pair and Jackrabblts
at &0 cents each.
Poultry prices are about the same as
last week, but the quality seems higher.
"Extra fancy" turkeys cost 3D cents but
good birds are to be had at ZS cents.
Fine "stall fed" Christmas geese cost 2S
cents a pound. Chickens cost IS to 23
cents and fat ducks about 'St cents a
pound.
Special Christmas beef, saddles of mut
ton, legs of lamb, "crown" roasts, hams
for baking and boiling, little pigs and
every conceivable kind of sausage com
pete with poultry for home feastlngs;
but there Is no marked change In price.
"Best butter" costs about 90 cents a
roll, but some fairly good sorts can be
had at 65 to SO cents a roll. Fresh. Oregon
eggs cost 45 to SO cents a dozen. -
The tteh market Is particularly well
supplied this week. The first Columbia
River Bmelt are In. but they are way up
in the luxury class, at about 15 cents
each. Razor clams are again to be had
at li'ii cents a dozen, as well as the or

The array of kippered, smoked and
salted fth is even larger than usual and
offers tempting suggestions for canapes,
bouchees, appetizers and chafing dish
&nacks. while the display of fancy cheeses,
both Imported and dohiestic. should not
be overlooked by the housekeeper In
search of "something good and some
thing different."
