Je learned here tonight that Postal In
spector Clement Is In Portland. Or,
with warrants for James and R. F.
McNlcholas. brothers, charged with
fcavfna ukjmI thA mulls WrOnirf UllT In
r promoting- mines In Oregon and Idaho.
Warrants were Issued recently by
United States Commissioner Daust and
r placed In the hands of Postal Inspector
Clement who started at once for Port
land. The affidavit on which the warrants
were Issued said that M. B. Dewey, of
Conneaut. O.. received by mail false
Information regarding the Old Channel
Hydraulic Mines Company, with prop
erty near Galice, Or. The brothers
are said to have sold stock in several
other mines in the West during a per
iod of eight years. They maintained
offices in Cleveland until two years ago.
After stock had been sold In six
gold and three lead mining companies
for a total, it is said, of $1,000,000, divi
dends ceased, stockholders aver, and
an attorney was sent to Oregon to In
vestigate the properties. His report
was turned over to the Postoffice De
partment. James McNlcholas came to Cleveland
in 1902 and attracted attention by his
lavish hospitality In entertaining proa
pectlva, stock purchasers. He left Ohio
bout two years ago.
BROTHERS SAID TO BE GONE
Jv.
Frank McNlcholas Says James Is in
3IontreaI, Tom In Albuquerque.
Frank McNlcholas. a brother of the
men named In the Federal complaints,
who works for the Pacifio Telephone
& Telegraph Company as a. lineman,
said yesterday that the mines alluded
to In the Cleveland telegram were lo
cated by him eight years ago. He says
they are ' not paying properties and
proved disappointing.
Frank McNlcholas also declares that
neither of the brothers wanted by the
authorities are in Portland. He de
clared, last night that James Is In
Montreal and. that his address Is the
Queen's Hotel. F. T., he asserted. Is,
or was ten days ago. In Albuquerque,
N. M-
"I know little about the sale of any
stock In these mines," said Frank Mc
Nlcholas last night, after reading the
presa dispatch from Cleveland. "I lo
cated the claims. I think about six of
them, near Galice, eight years ago.
They never amounted to anything. We
did only the assessment work required
under the law, amounting to $100 a
claim. I forget whether it was four or
six I located, but It was several. I
named them the Blue Klbbon mines.
I don't know how this Old Channel
name was brought about. My brothers
worked on the claims some and some
years back Tom sold some stock, but
It he ever used the malls to sell any
of it. I do not know It; I thought he
sold It personally. I know he went
East to sell the stock himself.
"James," continued he, "Is in Mon
treal, at the Queen's Hotel. He is In
terested In some mining property
there, with English capital. For all I
know, Tom may be climbing poles, as
he Is a lineman by trade, the same as
I am. I do know, however, that he Is
not in Portland, and if Mr. Clement
thinks he is. he has another guess
coming."
L. D. Mahone, secretary of the Ore
Eon Mining Association, said last night
that his office hud received complaints
about some mines in Southern Oregon
and also some in eastern parts of the
state, in which, he understood, the Mc
Nlcholas brothers are interested. He
said that a complaint reached his desk
from New Tork Just a few days ago
about some stock that was worthless,
tnd that he is now engaged In an in
vestigation. "While there is property In Galice
that is all right." said Mr. Mahone. "it
seems that this Old Channel proposi
tion is not right; that stock has been
sold in it and is worthless. I am now
Investigating complaints along this
line, but as to the facts concerning the
alleged sale and the alleged use of the
alalia therefor, I know nothing."

ELIOT SAYS LATE ,

EARLY GRAXD FATHERHOOD JOT
NOT TO BE MISSED.
Waiting to Give Girl of One's Choice
Accustomed Luxuries Declared
Xot Valid Excuse.
riVRBincR Mass.. Seat.. 26. (Spe
cial.) Dr. Charles W. Eliot, president
emeritus of Harvard, is an advocate
of early marriage and in addressing
members of the Harvard freshmen
class today on "Looking Ahead." ad
mitted it. He condemned late mar
riage as the great evil of modern
times.
"Look ahead to marriage," "Dr. Eliot
advised, "and I should say the sooner
the better. The late marriage is an
evil, and in the life of educated men It
has become far more serious than in
the life of the laboring man.
"The postponed marriage is the
great evil of modern life. It is not a
valid excuse to "say you wish to give
the girl you are to marry as much
luxury as she had in the home of her
nu-anta. If the srlrl has been brought
up in too much luxury the sooner she
has a chance to live differently tne
better.

years old. you should look forward to
serving your country.
"The time will come when you will
be So or 60 years old. Then it' will be
time for you to be a grandfather. That
th thins- to look forward to and
you should begin to look forward to
It now. A postponed marriage has tne
great disadvantage that a man cannot
begin to have grandchildren until he Is
too old to enjoy them.

STUDENTS' CHOICE
VAXCOtVER BOARD GIVES AL
TERNATIVE TO PUPILS.
Boys and Girls Alike Must Sign
Pledge to Renounce and Refuse
All Secret Alliances.
VANCOUVER. Vtfcish.. Sept 28. (Spe
cial.) Students enrolling In the Van
couver High School this year are given
the alternative of entering and pledg
ing themselves on their word of honor
that they will have nothing to do with
hleh school fraternities or sororities or
leave the Institution.
The School Board says: "High school
fraternities and sororities are unl
versally condemned by school author!
ties. They have , become so objection
able that hundreds of city and town
schools have forbidden them, by reso
lution and rule, and six states have
already prohibited them by legislative
act.
"In sympathy with this view of the
matter, after careful investigation, the
local Board of Directors passed the
following resolution:
" 'No pupil in the elementary or high
school in School District No. . Van
couver. shall form or belong to any
school fraternity, sorority or other se
cret organization. The superintendent
and principals shall suspend any pupil
In the Vancouver schools who falls to
comply with the provisions of this
rule.' "
It has been the aim of the directors
to provide as fully as possible oppor
tunltles for physical and social de
velopment on a more democratic plan,
and it Is their belief that all parents
and students of the local schools will
co-operate.
, When a student enrolls he or she is
asked to sign this pledge: "I pledge
my word of honor that I am not a
member of a fraternity, sorority or
other similar organization, and that if
at any time in the past I have been
connected, with any such organisation,
I have severed such connection. I un
derstand that my membership in the
Vancouver High School Is an honor
able pledge to obedience to all rules
established by the Board of Educa
tion." Practically all of the students have
signed the pledge.

Major-General Danll E. Sickles, U. S.
A, retired, 87 years old. is to be
evicted from his home at 23 Fifth ave
nue and is to .be stripped of every
possession he has in the world If his
wife, from whom he has been es
tranged for 32 years, carries out her
present plans. Mrs. Sickles Issued for
mal declaration of war today.
The battle signal was raised within a
few seconds after she had read the
public statement regarding herself and
their affairs which Sickles gave out
to newspapers early In the day. In this
statement General Sickles sought to
destroy any sympathy for his wife,
based on her pawning her Jewelry a
week ago to take up an $8000 Judg
ment against him.
General Makes Accusations.
He attacked her personal character,
said the Jewels were his, not hers,
anyway, and charged her with holding
an arrested Judgment over him as a
club,
Mrs. Sickles listened to the reading
of General Sickles' statement with
growing anger.
"It is enough," she said. "1 .'.d a
$40,000 mortgage on that house. It is
a second mortgage. He has never paid
me one cent of interest.
Mr. Slcidea Will Foreclose.
"I shall foreclose that mortgage. I
shall evict him.
"General Sickles in his chivalry has
seen fit to make a dreadful Insinuation
regarding niy character. Stanton, here
is my only child. Seventeen years
after the General left me in Madrid I
came to this country with the son of
a friend of mine, the widow to whom
the child had been born after a few
months after her husband's death. The
boy's name was Miguel. He lived wl: .
me here until he was able to support
himself and then went Into the wor.d
to earn his own living. He Is dead; he
cannot answer the Blur that this old
man has seen fit to utter against his
good name and mine."
General- Sneers at Sacrifice.
Mrs. Sickles' antrer was caused by the
publication earlier in the day of a
statement by her husband regarding his
financial troubles and the lifting of an
$8000 Judgment against him by his wife.
Mrs. Sickles pawned some of her Jewels
tn raise the money. Afterwards she
went to see General Sickles, who re
fused to meet her.
General Sickles today denied that It
was necessary that she pawn her Jew
els. He said she had an lnoepenaent
foT-Mina. He also charges that she had
$20,000 worth of silver plate In Madrid
belonging to him. He also intimateo
that her life had not been blameless,
nsrflirnlnir this as his reason for living
apart from her. He made a warm de
fense of Miss Eleanor marie wumera
insr. whom his wife accuses of causing
trouble between them. .
r.,nral sickles sneered at the sacri
fice his wife made to keep his beloved
art treasures from being sold under the
hammer and said that a Grand Army
friend had planned to lift the debt.
