FRAUD IS CHARGED
Picture - Enlargement ; Agent
Haled Into Court.
RESTITUTION IS PROMISED
A. J.- Cohen's Methods Rebuked by
Court ana Women Patrons Are
on Hand With Accusations
Regarding His Dealings.
"I want my $3 backl
"And. mine!"
"He'i got a picture that belongs to
me!" , ' ...
"I wouldn't take, a farm lor one be
took from my. house."- . - -
These were a few 4f the exclama
tions that greeted the appearance In
Municipal Court yesterday of A. J Co
ben, manager of " a picture-enlarging
scheme which the police allege Is a
lottery game.
A dozen women who had read refer
ences to Cohen's scheme in The Ore
gontan; were In court to give evidence.
Mrs. H. J. Langoe told how a solicitor
had come to her house, representing
that. If she were lucky enough to draw
a winning card, she would be let In on
the Inestimable privilege of buying a
1S enlargement for only 12.98.
"I learned afterward," she said, "that
all my neighbors bad been lucky too."
Contract Is IffBOred.
Whert she lifted an envelope so that
the light shone through it, the solicitor
said she had won, and left a con
tract. Later Cohen came around to col
lect, contrary to her understanding
that no money should be paid until the
picture was delivered.
"That was Just a manner of getting
people to listen to the salesman's talk,
explained Attorney Moser, Inferring
that persons, particularly women, were
more approchable If an element of
chance, to win and none to lose was
shown them.
"It is not clear that this is a lot
tery." said Judge Stevenson, "but it Is
plain - that it violates the false ad
vertislng ordinance."
"These pictures are not worth $15
or anything like It." said Deputy
Stadter, "and it is a fraud, particularly
upon women. This sort of business Is
going on all over the city, and it bould
be broken up.
Framing Declared Graft.
The real graft, the deputy explained.
came In framing the pictures. The en.
largements were produced in such I
shape that they could not be framed by
any stock material carried by regular
picture dealers, and the buyer was at
the mercy of Cohen, who could collect
what price be pleased for the appro
priate frames.
The defense professed wllllngnes to
submit to the view of the court and
desist from soliciting- - If -allowed to
close up existing contracts. The case
was taken under advisement by the
court and a much flustered Cohen ran
the gauntlet of his patrons in the cor
ridor, finally escaping with profuse
promises to give complete satisfaction
to all and speedily.
thing must be happening. It was 2
o'clock in the morning.
The nurse looked at tbe board which
indicates from which room a call has
come. Twenty-seven indicators showed
calls. Twenty-seven people must want
her- all at once. Then the doorbell
rang again, and immediately after 27
call bells "tinir-a-lined" strain.
Patients poked .their heads out of
doors, to see the nurse flying from one
room toanother. Nobody had canea
her, they all said, but the bells had
awakened everybody in the hospital.
Twenty-seven bells continued to ring
for ten minutes, the doorbell helping
the fun along, although nobody was at
tbe door.
Finally It was found that a woman
patient in room 9 had wanted the nurse.
She had pressed her button. In some
way the -wiring apparatus had become
crossed and tangled with the wire from
the doorbell. Every time room rang,

NEW SERVICE ANNOUNCED
"Ocean Letters" May Be Sent by
Marconi Wireless Company.
The Marconi Wireless Telegraph
Company of America announces the
inauguration of a new service aboard
ships, known as the ocean letter,
effective September 1. This allows the
wireless transmission of a letter of
from 30 to 100 words between vessels at
sea going In opposite directions to be
mailed by the vessel of reception upon
arrival In port. The rate of $1.20 for
the first SO words and cents for each
additional word up to 100 has been
placed in effect covering this service.
- The sending of letters "by wireless"
will add much to the conveniences of
travel at sea. Voyagers to the Orient
in particular will welcome this service,
as it will eliminate the necessity of
waiting until the arrival-of the vessel
at Its destination before a letter can be
sent home.

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL-.-LEGE,
Corvallis, Aug. 28. (Spe
cial.) M. J. Seeley, of Ann Arbor,
Mich., has been appointed to an
lnstructorshlp in pharmaceutical
chemistry at Oregon Agricultural
College for the coming year.
At the University of Michigan,
bis alma mater, Mr. Seeley has
assisted with Instructive work In
both pharmacy and chemistry.
He has also gained a practical
knowledge of pharmacy through
experience In the retail drug
business.
28 other call bells rang, too, besides
the doorbell.
The first thing Mrs. White did In
the morning was to have a repair man
come and fix the wiring.
FIREMEN ARE ON MERIT
BEST MEX WILL BE STATIONED
LV BUSINESS DISTRICT.
Higher Salaries Also Fart of Reward
for Efficiency In Local
Department.
Grouping of the city's most efficient
nremen In tbe main business district,
where nres are most frequent and more
serious, and shifting drones to the out
lying stations, where wares will be
lowest, will be the result of a merit
system for the Fire Department,
adopted yesterday by Mayor Albee.
A premium will be placed on effi
cient service and the way will be con
tinually open for advancement of the
men in rank and salary. The system
eventually' will mean general slashing
of salaries in the department. The
Mayor at the suggestion of the New
York bureau of municipal research,
proposes to establish three districts.
The first and best will be that In
the main business districts of the East
Side and West Side.
Here the wages will be highest for
privates and fire captains and lieuten
ants because of the frequency of fires,
the additional dangers at fires and the
large amount of work. The second
district will be out a short distance.
Here wages will be lower than in tbe
business center. The third and lowest
district will be on the outskirts where
wages will be lowest.
The firemen, it Is believed, continual
ly will be striving for promotion to a
higher district where more money Is
paid. Men who are inefficient in the
center of the city will be shifted to
the outskirts to make way for efficient
men who are In the outskirts. Under
the system there will be an advantage
In good service. Under present con
ditions there is a uniform scale of
wages regardless of efficiency or
amount of work.
DRUMMERS TO PICNIC
RAIN TOL NOT IXTERFERE
WITH FCX, SAYS ARLETT.
Knights of Grip, With Families, to
Meet at Crystal Lake Today for
Annual Outing.
About 1000 drummers will gather, at
Crystal Lake Park. Milwaukie, tomor
row to take a squint at a programme
of holiday events that are classed as
perfectly good form. The traveling
en will start lrom East w ater and
Morrison streets at 9:30 o'clock.
'Thore is nothing in this picnic plan
of ours that will be spoiled on account
of a rain storm, announced Chairman
Percy Arlett. "and the gang will pic
nic, :egnrdlcss of the weather."
Portland Is the home city for more
than 1000 salesmen, representing the
wholesale and Jobbing houses of the
city, and while the committee has no
means of checking up the exact num
ber uf men who will be present with
their families, it la believed that the
affair will bring together a larger
' umber of commercial men than has
ever formed into one gathering In the
Northwest.
The programme will Include amus
ing events, in which men, women and
children may participate. "Chef
Wfcitemore and "Pop" Kunta, commer
cial travelers for more than 40 years
and still rivals in everything known to
man, will settle their differences for
all time, while some of the fellows who
have been boasting of their skill In
raising and handling children are go
ing to find some hard sledding in try
ing tor the prise in the eugenics con-J
test.
Chairman Arlett issued the follow
ing statement yesterday: "Some of the
married drummers may not be able
to get Into town for the plcnlo. In that
case the committee hopes that their
families will Join the picnickers and
we will do our best to entertain them."

Treasurer Adams to require property
owners to pay before September -1 all
assessments due on property- bonded

Treasurer Adams says the city will
sell property after September Id if tbe
