Guardsman Wants to Find Young
Woman Who Gave Him Bloom.
Trust a rose for sponsoring romance,
anytime.
But when the alarm of war is sound
ing, and uniforms are donned, the rose
is more to the fore than ever. And
that is why. perhaps, a young woman
gave a rose to a guardsman, and went
on her way, and may have forgotten.
But the rose hasn't, and neither ha"s
the guardsman.
In this issue of The Oregonlan ap
pears the following advertisement:
"Will the young woman who handed
the soldier a rose yesterday afternoon
at Eleventh and Oak streets please
call or write F. H. Wilson today; and,
if she can, come up about S:30 o'clock
and ask the machine-gun company for
him?"

which is to decide whether William 11-
Orpet, University of Wisconsin student.
murdered Marlon Lambert as chargea
will hear read the 42 letters which
Orpet wrote to the schoolgirl over i
period of nearly a year.
This Important ruling was made to
day by Judge Donnelly. Objections by
the defense as to the competency of the
earlier letters led to arguments and
the citations of authorities which used
up most of the time yesterday and to
day.
Letters In Two Series.
The letters were divided into two
series: Those written before the school
vacation of 1915, and those written aft
erward up to February. The earlier
letters deal In part with the illicit love
between the two and are ardent in tone.
The latter ones are cooler and speak
of medicine which Orpet was to pro
vide for. Marlon's supposed delicate
condition.
The defense objected to the admls
sion of the earlier letters as having no
bearing on Marion's death. Judge Don
nelly., speaking to the lawyers before
the jury was called in, said that the
letters were so prejudicial to Orpet as
plainly indicating seduction that it
would he dangerous to submit them to
the Jury.
"I have read the letters," the court
said, "and they affected me. The ef
fect on the Jury may be Imagined. They
might not draw the distinction that
they are trying the defendant for mur
der and murder alone."
State's Attorney Dady, argued for
their admission on the broad ground
that an illicit love affair culminating
in murder could be shown only by
reading the entire series of epistles.
Everett Friganza,- a newspaper re
porter who had various interviews with
Orpet. was recalled to the stand.
"Orpet told me that he met Marlon
in Helm's woods to tell her their
friendship had ceased that he was
through," the witness said. "He eaid
they walked together. She stopped
and he walked on. When he looked
back she had fallen in the snow."
Friganza, in talking with Orpet on
the train coming from Madison to Lake
Forest, asked Orpet if he were engaged
to Celeste Younker.
Orpet Practically Engaged.
"He said they were practically en
gaged," related the witness. "He
asked me not to drag her name into
the case. He admitted that his rela
tlons with Marion were illicit. He said
It was a cold proposition I never told
her I loved her. I never said I would
marry her." "
After Orpet was placed in Jail, Fri
ganza said that he found it difficult to
reach Orpet and had himself arrested
and thrown into Jail with the accused
on February 20.
At this point. Attorney fotter. or me
defense, objected.
'We have information," said Mr. Pot
ter. "that the state's attorney connived
with witness to get him into jail to
obtain Orpefs confidence."
"Overruled, said the court.
"In the jail," continued the witness.
I asked Orpet if he had disposed of
the bottle which contained the potas
slum cyanide. He said no.
