Governor Withyconibe and State
Treasurer Kay voted for the summary
dismissal of C61onel Lawson. aeciannts
that he was guilty of insubordination
in not placing to work Josepn jvener,
m hv the executive for parole of
ficer, as he had promised to do. The
removal of the superintendent, they
aid. was for the sood of the service.
Mr. 01ctt Asks Delay.
Secretary of State Olcott. who voted
originally for the retention of Colonel
Lawson, said he had confidence in the
official and asked that final determina
tion of the Question be deferred. He
thought the superintendent's motives
had been misconstrued, itr. Olcott cia
not vote on the proposal to remove
I'nlnnel Lawson at once.
Governor Withycotnbe said, so far as
be was concerned, it was a ciosea in
i-id.nt and that he cared for no fur
ihcr conference with Colonel Lawson.
In response to a query by State Treas
urer Kay, the executive said that the
superintendent several days ago had
made a quibbling statement to mm.
"I believe Colonel Uwson guilty of
cross insubordination, added the liov
nmor, "and favor summary action for
th future effect it will have on the
heads- of state departments.
Action Called Insult.
"He agreed in the presence of this
board to make a certain man parole
officer and afterward, without any
cause, declined to do so. He has tried
to nut tha Governor's office in an em.
barrasslng position and I favor dis
pensing with his services. I liave
shown him every consideration and
there was no reason for his insub
ordination. It was an insuit to the
administration.
"Although I had nothing to do with
the appointment of the parole officer,
I agree with the Governor," said State
Treasurer Kay. "This board has shown
Colonel Lawson every consideration.
He agreed before the board to make
Ir. Keller parole officer and if he
fiad not desired to do so he should
have consulted with the board Instead
of rushing Into the newspapers.
Mr. Keller tioea to Work.
"He said the parole officer was not
needed, but he had one during nis
administration in the person of Frank
Snodirrass. There is no reason wny
Mr. Keller cannot serve in that ca
nacltr if Mr. Snodgrass could. He
has shown poor Judgment and not the
proper consideration for the Doara.
Mr Benzcn's first act upon assum
Ing charge of the prison was to put
Mr. Keller to work as parole officer.
Governor 'Wltliycombe also plans to
nse him as special agent. The salary
ef parole officer under tho bill passed
at the recent session or me wisim
ture creating the office is 125 a
month and the executive says he will
not receive additional salary for work
as special agent.
After the meetinor of the board Gov
rnor Withycoinbe made the following
statement:
Governor Discovers Motives.
The discontinuance of Colonel Law
.on'i. services at the Penitentiary is
desirable at this time because of his
action in the Keller matter, although
iha Issue la larger than a minor ap
ointment. Colonel Lawson agreed to
fake certain action quite definitely.
The agreement was made with me and
a-1th the board.
"Later, without any notification to me
or other members, he saw fit to change
front. What influences his suoaen
change I do not know nor do I care.
On my own initiative I had arranged
to keep him a month longer than he
asked out of courtesy. The prompt
evidence of Colonel Lawson's intention
to attempt embarrassing tactics con
vinces me that it is for the best in
terests of all concerned he may as
welle quit now." "

DEGREE FORMS DRAFTED
BOTH SIDES IJT METHODIST SUIT
SEEK FAVORABLE DECISION.
Jadare aten Says He ra"
Opening of Bolldlag. bnt Taxes
Slant Be Paid.
Attnrnrvs for the contending factions
in the First Methodist Episcopal Church
yesterday submitted proposed decrees
to Circuit Judge Gatens, each asking
Judgment in favor of his faction. Judge
Gatens, who already announcea irom
the bench that he has no authority to
order the opening of the doors of the
Taylor-street church, took the findings
under advisement, and win sign a tor
mil decree within a few days.
The document submitted by Martin
L. Tines, for the "insurgent- faction.
asks an Injunction ordering the church
authorities to open the Taylor-street
church, which was closed last October
following consolidation with the Grace
Methodist Episcopal Church. It also
asks a restraining order prohibiting the
church authorities from selling or dis
posing of the property at Third and
Taylor streets.
The other decree, filed by John B.
Cleland for the "regulars," denies the
prayers of the "insurgents, and dis
misses the action.
The judge declined to listen to argu
ments on the decrees. Under his former
decision he has no Jurisdiction over tne
closing of the church doors. When he
made this decisloln. however, he de
clared that if the property was not used
for church purposes it would be taxed.
LEAKING PIPES REPAIRED
Water Bureau Finds Consumers
Comply With Orders Readily.
Water users on whose premises
leaky water fixtures have been found
by inspectors who are conducting a
water survey are complying readily
with the orders of the water bureau
have the leaks repaired at once.
Comparatively few of those who have
been notified to make repairs have
failed to do so. and tho water bureau
has had to enforce the order by shut
tins off the water on the premises in
but few cases.
Although it has been 23 years since
similar water survey has been con
ducted, the survey shows that only
about -one water user in 10 has leaky
fixtures. It is expected that when the
urvey is completed the end of this
year the problem ot water waste
through leaky fixtures will have been
solved.

TWINS SUPREME DN BILL
COMEDIANS OK 3ILTT AND JEFF
TYPE LEAD AT PA XT AGES.
Ray Lawrence, of Portland, Has Act
That Is Real Sensation Comedy
Skit Wins 0-atlon.
The long and short of vaudeville is
the Marco twins, who are topping the
Pantages bill this week. That is, one
of them Is tall enough to top It all
alone, but the other little feUow gets
in on the ground floor. The Marco
twins are fun-makers with original
methods, and their widely dissimilar
styles of architecture provide most of
the hilarity. The tall one dresses in
an Eva Tanguay effect. He is a clever
contortionist and his role in the plot
is to wipe up the stage with little
brother Marco. The diminutive one al
lows himself to be kicked and buf
feted and mauled around as if ' he
were a human football.
Even more interest is added to this
novelty act by a presentation In mo
tion pictures just before the programme
opens, which shows the two comedians
n a sort of Mutt and Jeff series or
comicalities.
One of the real sensations of vaude
ville is Ray Lawrence, who is a Port
lander, by the way. It is a positive
shame to have to spoil the big surprise
attached to Ray's act by telling about
it in print. Ray isn't what Kay seems,
however, and the discovery of it at the
end of the downright clever act Is
such a surprise that the audiences
yesterday recalled Ray a half dozen
times. Its a capital turn.
Abrams and John have an original
comedv called "When Hubby Realizes.
It is the story of a would-be Lothario
who berates his little country mousie
wife for her domesticity. She takes
a page from a book on how to train
a refractory husband and opens her
own hubby's eyes.
Miss John is exceptionally capable
and her simulated intoxication is well
done.
The five Musical Nooses are real
musicians who play on violins and
horns of all sorts. Three of the
Nosses are particularly attractive young
women, all of a size and extremely
dainty in appearance. The costumes
of the entire group are fresh, colorful
and exceedingly artistic. Their- music
ranges from grave to gay, from classic
to the classy, and Is most pleasing.
A dear little maid is Peggy Bremen
lithe arid young, with dark curls and
a radiant smile. Peggy climbs ladders
unsupported ladders, and skips rope
and climbs around daringly whilo bal
ancing on the row of bars. Her
brother does the same thing, but he
isn't quite so pretty and pert as Peggy.
Howard and Mason, colored singers
and dancers, could shorten their act
profitably, or put more variety into it.
SANTA CLAUS GIRL WON
Lady Bountiful to Poor Children An
nounces Her Engagement.
PHILADELPHIA. March 1. Olive
May Wilson, the "Santa Claus Girl,
of Jenkintown. whose gifts have
taught thousands of poor children the
country over the meaning of "Merry
Christmas," surprised her friends a few
davs aaro by formally announcing her
engagement to Blrchall Hammer, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas B. Hammer, of
Mount Airy, Pa. No definite date has
been set for the wedding.
Miss Wilson, who lives with her par
ents, Mr. and Mrs. S, Harry Wilson, at
01 West avenue, Jenkintown, said
that she would not let her coming
marriage interfere with her work. She
will still play Lady Bountiful to the
little hoys and birls whose stockings
she fills with candies and toys, and
whose hearts overflow with grateful
love for their "Dear Santa Lady." The
only difference will be that there will
now be a Mr. Santa Claus to help her.
The ""Happy Princess of Jenkintown'
has won a national reputation for her
self by her tireless and successful
work, striving to bring a little Christ
mas joy into the homes of the slums
and the poverty-stricken rural dis
tricts of this country. She once went
to Washington to plead with President
Wilson for the franking privilege of
sending her "Santa Clams Mail." The
President and several members of his
Cabinet heartily endorsed her work
but were unable to grant the privi
lege. Mr. Hammer is associated with his
father in the lumbering business, with
extensive affiliations in this city and
in North Carolina. He was graduated
from the Chestnut Hill Academy with
the clase of 1909 and from the Wharton
School in 1913.
SKULL 0PENEDT0 AID EYE

Brain to Restore Sight.
PHILADELPHIA. March L A re

sections of a patient's skull to permit
the expansion of his brain, compressed

panding tumor was causing severe

mean that the brain can expand to Its
normal size and that sight will be re
stored to the blind eye.

Spurned by Defendant.
LOS ANGELES, March 3 John J.
Cahill. who Is large and strong, was
handcuffed in Superior, Judge Monroe's
courtroom recently and sent to jail
for contempt because he insisted
"might is right."
Cahill's wife, Silvia A. Cahill, re
cently filed suit for divorce against
Cahill for desertion and non-support
Cahill ignored the suit until it was
called for trial. He appeared to enter
a denial In such a noisy manner that
Judge Monroe ordered him to be silent.
"I don't recognize either you or the
law," Cahill replied. "If I dtm't get you
now I'll get you later."
Cahill was overpowered by bailiffs
and handcuffed. Judge Monroe then
fined him $250 for contempt, in de
fault of which he was sent to jail.
POLICE DOGS VINDICATED
Irish Stew Better Than Bologna as
Burglar Catching Fare.
HACKENSACK, N. J., March 1. The
Jersey police dog has vindicated him
self. For a while his reputation as a
sleuth was in the balance, when one of
the German breed started on the trail
of two burglars who had ransacked the
piome- of James C, Rudesiil chief, of
police at Haworth. The German hound
led Sheriff Heath, of this town, to two
ayaata 1 1 . In each t'f It WaS SaU
sage, and not crime, tnat had attracted
the dog.
The canine reputation for sleuthing
was redeemed when the second of the
two burglar suspects was captured
after he had been trailed through the
woods of Dumont and Haworth by Due
and Witch, two police dogs from t.ngi
wood.
First Peter Simons, a Greek, was
captured at Tenafly. He was carrying
away a suit of clothes belonging to the
chief of police. Simons confessed that
he was one of the men who had rifled
the Rudesill home and carried off a lot
of silverware, which he said had been
hidden in a house near Haworth.
Accompanied by Simons, Sheriff
Heath began a tour of the neighbor
hood In his automobile. Then he called
the police dogs to help him. The Ger
man hound from Ridgewood was first
summoned. He had been fed on irisn
stew and the Sheriff was convinced that
he wouldn't even prick up his ears at
the odor of sausage. No sooner was
the doe- put on the scent than he start
ed for Englewood. The German hound
was at once dismissed.
Heath and Simons were riding along
a muddv road through the . Dumont
woods, when the Greek cried, "There's
the place now!" The Sheriff entered
the house, but the hole in the wall in
which Simons said the silverware had
been placed was empty. While the two
were talking on the ground rioor or tne
house a man jumped from the second
story window. He had been sleeping
above and been aroused by the voices.
Barefooted and coatless. he set out
for the woods, leaving the Sheriff and
the confessed burglar behind. Heath
notified the Englewood police to watch
out for the coatless and shoeless fugi
tive. The confidence of the Englewood
police in their dogs was still un
shaken. The hounds soon picked up a
trail. For a mile they loped aleng
and then swerved off the road and ran
straight to a poultry house behind a
barn.
Out of the farmhouse came Joe
Blake, owner of the place. When he
saw the policemen he started for the
woods, but O'Neil baited him, "I
know what they want me for, but I
am innocent," shouted Blake, before
the policemen had said a word to him.
He wore a pair of low shoes and a
thin coat, given him. he said, by per
sons along the road. In the Blake
home were found BO pawn tickets,
showing that silverware and jewelry
had been pledged by the prisoner.
Two of Blake's brothers were found
in bed when Sheriff Heath invaded the
second floor of the house. One of
them said he couldn't dress because
his trousers were missing. After in
vestigating the Sheriff discovered that
the other brother had put them on In
his haste.
Blake was questioned at the Engle
wood police headquarters. He de
clared that Simons was the real bur
glar and that he had received the
goods to hide them.

NEW YORK, Feb. 28. Alderman
Quinn, of Manhattan, Introduced a res
olution a few days ago to put an end
to the "marriage bower" in the base

tion was prompted by repeated com
plaints from bridegrooms "held up" for
exorbitant marriage fees by "runners"
who frequent the "bower" and propose
to arrange weddings for pairs desir
ous of a civil ceremony.
The resolution went to the committee
on general welfare. It provides for a
new marrtage bureau In the municipal
building and abolition of the tipping
system by which the one in the city
hall has been run since 1895. Salaried
attendants would replace those now de-'

RURAL CREDITS TOPIC
MASTER GRANGERS FAVOR MEAS
URE IX BEHALF OF FARMERS.
Project Will Be Taken Before State
Association at Tillamook In May.
Field Day Proposed.
Rural credits or the benefit of the
farming communities of Oregon were
favored at the quarterly meeting of
Multnomah County Masters' and Lec
turers' Association held with Fairvlew
Grange Saturday, the 10 Granges of
the county being represented. T. J.
Kreuder, president of the association,
presided, and favored the proposal that
the Grangers of the state take definite
steps toward securing a rural credit
system for Oregon through the next
State Grange, which meets at Tilla
mook May 11, 12, 13 and 14.
Practically all the masters and lec
turers present favored the rural credit
project, and In the talks that were made
it was asserted that all prosperity
comes from the farm, and that when
the farmers suffer all the country suf
fers. It was further declared that one
of the greatest handicaps to the farmer
is high interest. It was decided to bring
the matter before the Pomona Grange,
March 17, at Gresham and before the
State Grange at Tillamook In May.
The proposal to hold a field day this
year was favored, and will be brought
up at the meeting of Pomona Grange.
All Granges In the county will be asked
to appoint committees to arrange for
this rield day. The end of the Mount
Tabor carline on the Base Line and the
Fair Grounds at Gresham were sug
gested as the location.
T. J. Kreuder was re-elected presi
dent of the association; Mrs. J. Cava
naugh. vice-president, and Mrs. Willda
Buck man, secretary-treasurer. The in
vitation of Multnomah Grange at Orient
to meet there in May was accepted.
BABE KEEPS LATE HOURS
4
Grandson of President Awake as
Train Rolls in at 4:25 A. M. .
PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 23. Just think
of It! The most prominent baby, if not
the most important baby In these
United States, didn't go to bed
until after midnight the otner
morning. Furthermore, as if that were
not enough for a night's adventure, he
awoke after four hours' sleep-to say a
hj-ight "good morning" and get his first
erlimnse of the Quaker City. What is
scientific baby-raising coming to? Fond
parents, who bring up their children by
schedule, may well ask this question.
L enfant, or course, Is l- rancis t.ayre,
only grandchild of President Wilson.
He passed through Philadelphia in the
wee sma' hours and stopped In Broad
street station long enough for the word
to spread that he was there and thus
give several hundred belated travelers
opportunity to watch him get his first
glimpse of the world beyond his Wash
ington birthplace.
Young Mr. Sayre was safely tucked
by a Pullman porter and two nurses
into a snug berth in one of the state
rooms of the "midnfght" train from
the capital, the train that leaves there
at i2:,"0 A. M. and reaches Broad street
at 4:25 A. M. When the train rolled
into the station Baby Francis rubbed
his eyes in a dazed, "please-explain-to-me"
way, and made it known to Mrs.
Sayrc that he wanted to go out and see
tho sights. Around in the station the
word was passed that a distinguished
visitor was present. Trains were quite
forgotten, while the curious thronged
to view little Francis. He smiled and
cooed with great cheerfulness as the
nurse swayed him gently in her arms,
and bade him "smile prettily." Three
minutes later the train pulled out on
its way through North Philadelphia to
New York.
Others In the party were his parents.
Mr. and Mrs. Francis Sayre, Secretary
and Mrs. McAdoo and Miss Wilson.
Francis was the first distinguished cit
izen of the country, other than Presi
