to to days on the rockptla. In Municipal
Court yesterdajr. Another charre of
attempting- to bribe a witness Is pend
ing against him. It being; alleged that
Cheptsaa went himself and later sent
an emlseary to the complaining wit
ness, offering her 1200 not to appear
against him.
Cheptsaa was arrested early Sunday
morning by Patrolman Cameron, after
the officer had seen him turn out the
lights in the restaurant, at II North
Sixth street, lock ths door, and retire
to a box seat where the girl was eat
ing her lunch. Hearing the girl scream.
Cameron battered In the door and ar
rested Cheptsaa. It was shown that
Cheptsaa had employed several young
girls., discharging them In a few days
when they were not amenable. The
authorities draw the Inference, well
supported by other facts In their pos
session, that certain restaurants are
headquarters for ths "whits slave"
trade.
In passing Judgment. Judge Taxwell
said that ho placed no faith In the tes
timony of the defendant. His attorney
then begged that a fine be Imposed in
nlac. of a prison sentence, urging that
had been dons and that It
re his client's business and
to go to JalL
re certain classes upon
whom a fine makes no Impression.
replied Judge Taxwell. "and I am fre
quently Importuned to change rock
pile sentences to an equivalent money
penalty, but I have always refused to
do so. This man will have to go to
as the nature of his offenee Is
such that no fine, however heavy,
would suffice to punish him. He Is
sentenced to 0 days' Imprisonment.'
Notice of appeal was given and the
bond was fixed at $500. Two country
irren Immediately qualified and Chept
saa was released.
The witness against Cheptsaa was a
frail girl of IT. Just convalescing from
a long lilness.
Chief of Police Cox sent a letter to
the City Council yesterday, asking for
an ordinance By which places like thst
of Cbeptsas may be regulated. He asks
that a small license tax ba Imposed,
with the power to revoke permits when
places are proved to be disorderly.

supplementary articles of Incorporation
were filed by the German A'd Society,
througa Charles J. Bchnabel. its attor
ney, yesterday morning in the County
Clerk's offloe. The supplementary arti

While the plans of the organisation
are elaborate. It Is planned, according to
a statement made yesterday by Mr.

and make additions as they become nec
essary. The Old People's Home event
ually will have a capacity of 100 mem
bers and will ba open to those only who 1
can pay fees for its use. It Is not the
Idea of the society to be entirely phil

Horns will be known aa Altenhelm,
mealng a home for aged.
Next to the work Of constructing the
home for sged will be the establishment
of an orphan asylum. Then there will

GERMAN BAND PLAYS ON
Council, Musically Inclined, Defeat
- Prohibition Ordinance.
Public sentiment, the love for
"music" and the general high regard
for the services of "that little German
band" have saved It from being wiped
out of existence by legislative enact
ment by the City Council. That
august body yesterday morning adqpt
ed without comment the report of its
health and police committee, recom
mending that there ba no further con
sideration of a proposed ordinance by
Councilman Rushlight, banishing the
band.
It was felt by the colleagues of Mr.
Rushlight that ha was striking a se
vere blow at personal liberty and the
rights of the members of the little Ger
man band, to say nothing of the griev
ous wounds and punctures In the pub
lic feelings when he Introduced his
celebrated measure. It was therefore
pigeon-holed Xor the good of humanity. 1

WOULD BE ATTORNEY.
Candidates File for May Primaries.
Mayoralty Aspirants Are Xot
Yet in Evidence.
Frank S. Grant, who was appointed
City Attorney by Mayor Simon to fill
an unexpired term, yesterday filed his
declaration of Intention to run for the
office In the May primaries. He says
he will continue to conduct the office
In an honest and efficient manner.
H. C. King filed his declaration to
run for the same office, but is more
profuse In his announcement, pro
claiming himself as "anti-assembly,
anti-bossism. anti-obstructionist and
will work for a greater Portland."
King ia a lawyer and lives at 402 Ross
street.
City Auditor Barbur will today file
his declaration of Intention to run for
the office to succeed himself. He will
be opposed by E. M. Lance. Mr. Barbur
Is serving his second term.
M. J. Drlscoll will file today his dec
laration for Councllman-at-large to
succeed himself. Thus far he Is the
only avowed candidate for this office.
George L. Baker, now representing the
Fourth Ward. Is being urged by a
number of his friends throughout the
city to run. He said last night that
he had given the subject little thought
and had not decided upon a course.
Thus far no candidates have tiled
for the office of Mayor, and it seems
that all of those who are considering
this position are waiting for the other
to act. Mayor Simon is still silent on
the subject as to the Republican nomi
nation and Dr. Harry Lane, generally ,
regarded as the Democratic candidate,
is as non-committal as ever. George
H. Thomas, another prominent Demo
crat, has not as yet determined
whether he will run In response to pe
titions that are being circulated by his
friends.

I will gladly answer them."
