SPOKANE CITIZENS
SEEK PROTECTION
Wave of Crime Results in De
mand for Reorganization
of Police Force."
ALL MYSTERIES UNSOLVED
ProtectlTe League Organizes, Asks
Shakeap of DetectiTe Bureau and
Employs Special Guardians to
Patrol Certain District.
SPOKANE. Wash, Dec. 17. (Spe
cial.) As the police of the City of Spo
kane hare now three unsolved murder
cases and so many burglaries that no
one seems to remember Just how many,
all originating In a week, a move Is
under way to reorganize the police
force.
Anna Weber was found murdered
near her home a few feet off the side
walk of Summit boulevard, Friday. De
cember I. Monday nisht Frank Pas
quale was found dead on the sidewalk
In front of his Itiverslde-avenue home
with a bullet through his head, and
that same evening; an unidentified rob
ber entered the home of A. ii. Simmons,
attempted an assault on his daughter
and shot and killed his brother. Chaun
cey, as the latter entered the house.
Cltlsena Det-saaa Recraaalaatloaw
Simmons was burled this afternoon
and at the same hour In the Holmes
School there was a meeting; of citizens
of the Fourth Ward who organized a
protective lea-rue and passed resolu
tions calling tor a reorganization of
the police detective bureau. They also
decided that for the aafety of their
homes they would hire special police
men to patrol their section of the city.
In none of the murder mysteries has
anything; like a solution been reached,
and the Weber case aeema the blankest
of all. There are several features
which seem to lead to some explanation
but the explanation has so far not ap
peared. The girl apparently for some
time before her death had much more
money than her salary, and the source
of this money Is now being eagerly
sought.
Clewa Appear Worthless.
In the case of Pasquale. the police
are Investigating; a woman with whom
he is said to have had difficulties the
night before he died, but the facts
have so far led to no arrests.
In the case of the attack on Miss
Simmons and the murder of her broth
er, the path of the murderer has been
traced for a few blocks and there lost.
The probability of his capture at any
time seems remote.

the steamer was off partridge Point,
near Port Townsend early today.
Distress calls were sent out and the
City of Puebla was picked up by tugs
and towed to Seattle, wnere sne win

thrown out of his berth by the shock.
He realized immediately the danger of
the situation, and without waiting to

steam, pouring from the broken cylin
der. He reached the valve and shut
off the steam and then staggered up

dressed.
As soon aa the vessel waa towed to

DOUBLE PENSION POSSIBLE
By One Injnry Person May Suffer
Two Distinct Disabilities.
OLYMPIA. Wash.. Dec. 17. (Spe

industrial compensation law may re
ceive double compensation where he
suffers "permanent partial disability
and "temporary total disability," says
Assistant Attorney-General S. H. Kel

Insurance Commission. He says the
law recognizes the fact that one sus
taining an injury may suffer, as a re
salt of one injury, two wholly distinct
disabilities, the one total, though tem
porary, the other partial, though per
manent. Thus, if a workman loses a finger he
Is entitled to a pension for the per
manent loss, or "permanent partial
disability." and. as well, a monthly
compensation for a -temporary total
disability." which concldes with the

ANNA WEBER.
allowed a deputy to County Superin
tendent of Schools John G. Swan, he
has taken the opportunity of making
an inspection of the schools of Klamath
Cojnty. The principal laxity, the Su
perintendent finds. Is that relative to
the use of individual drinking cups,
which rule of the State Health Board
It has been particularly desired to en
force since the domestic water sup
ply of Klamath Falls has been found
polluted.
The school at Olene has been altered
and Improved, while that at the upper
end of Poe Valley is taught in a prl
vate residence since the school burned
down. A new schooihouse has been
built at Shasta View. In the Bohemian
colony, and the new building rt Malin.
also In a Bohemian district. Is over
crowded, although Just completed. An
other room will be built to Join the
building and relieve the congested con
dltlon.
As an instance of the growth of the
Bohemian settlement, it is reported by
Mr. Swan that while two years ago
there were not enough school children
to maintain the district there now are
it scnoiars on tne rolls at Mann.
L DIVI
SEGKEGATIOX OF DELINQUENTS
SUGGESTED AT BOISE.
School Board Will Thoroughly In
vestigate System Before Taking
Action Farm Plan Adopted.
BOISE, Idaho, Dec 17. (Special.)
What is conceded to be one of the most
remarkable plans for the class segre
gation of delinquent children in pub
lie schools has been proposed and is
being seriously considered by the Board
of Education in charge of the schools
of this city. The Board proposes to
separate the children who can be con
sidered as delinquent, principally girls
whose habits and conversation are not
of a high moral standard, in a grade by
themaelves, away from the other chil
dren.
It is declared there are a -certain
number of children whose knowledge
or evil Is far beyond their years and
who it is argued have ill effect on both
the boys and the girls with whom they
associate in the public schools.
Superintendent Meek proposes a sep
arate classification or grade which
will serve as a medium between the
public schools and the Industrial School
where girls who can be labeled as
"bad" can be given a chance to re
form under the supervision of a spe
cial instructor fitted for this kind of
work. The advocates of the Meek plan
assert there is no way of protecting a
good girl from a bad one:
Whether the School Board could put
so drastic a plan into effect is said to
be doubtful due to the fact that it is
declared they will attempt to ride class
legislation into the public schools. The
Board has not taken definite action to
enforce its plan and is making a com
plete investigation before attempting
to do so.
The second plan that the Board of
Education proposes and which probably
will go Into effect, is the establishment
of an agricultural department in con
nection with the high school course by.
which students can actually practice
agriculture. The State Fair manage
ment has offered the schools the use
of the fairgrounds.
FOREMAN SAVES EMPLOYE

Snatches Worker From Death.
MEDFORD. Or.. Dec. 17. (Special.)

volving screen and throwing the belt

bert Clark, foreman of the Griffin
Creek quarry, at the hazard of his own
life, saved Red Lackovttch, a laborer,
from a horrible death yesterday morn
ing. Lackovitch was oiling a machine

the large gear wheel. At first, too as
tonlahed to cry out. he tried to extri
cate himself but slowly the wheel
wound him into another. Then Clark
acted. Had he been a moment later
Lackovitch would have been killed. As,
it was. Lackovitch was hurled against
the other gear wheel and by the force
of the Impact and the grinding of the
two wheels, three ribs were literally
torn from place, leaving his lung ex
posed. The injured man was brought to
Medford and placed under charge of
Dr. Shearer. As soon as his wounds
were dressed he was removed to the
Sacred Heart Hospital. It is thought
that be will recover. J

FARM
"VEWBERG ORGANIZATION" AIMS
AT SEL-F-PROTECriON.
Portland Commission Men Declared
Antagonistic to the Move Giving
Higher Prices to Producers.
NEWBERG. Or., Dec. 17. (Special.)
To protect the Interests of the farm
ers and producers in the territory
adjacent to this city a mass meeting
was held in the Chehalem Center school
this afternoon and a movement started
to combine the crops of the farmers
at one general storage center. It Is the
aim of the promoters to get the best
prices possible for their wares.
The movement follows close on the
publication in a Newberg paper of an
article reprinted from another paper
in which merchants are urged to co
operate in fighting mail-order houses.
Dr. Logan was elected chairman and
W. A. Baker secretary at the meeting
this afternoon. J. J. Jordan, F. L.
Harford and Mr. Honey were chosen a
committee to draft a constitution.
It was pointed out that nearly every
other profession, trade and vocation
is organized except the farmers and
the benefits of union were explained
to the assemblage.
H. C. Paulson suggested that the
old creamery building in Newberg
might be secured as a storehouse to be
used by the members of the organiza
tion and It was the general belief that
there would be no difficulty in getting
capital to handle crops if the proper
steps were taken.
The speakers at the meeting included
I. N. Campbell. Richard Everest, H. L.
Tankln, Howard Walton and others.
The Front-street commission men of
Portland were mentioned as being
antagonistic to the Interests of the
pioducers and reference was made to

wherein the writer cites the case of P.
A. Lange, of Salem, who was offered
only 30 cents a box for apples handled
and packed with the greatest care,
when he took samples to the Front
street dealers though the dealers were
then asking from Jl to 60 cents a
box for apples.
