Karubah Xemple discovered that these two pathfinders first hit a straight line down to Juarez, thence to Tia J liana and then for a jaunt up to Van couver, B. C. where it's still as wet as Portland on the first day of March. Where do yuh get that straight line bunk?" ,one of the wandering nobles was asked. "That's easy, bo," he laughed, "a straight line nowadays is the shortest distance between drinks." It is now being whispered about that this pair of good fellows intend returning home "by way of Havana, Just to make it unanimous. The man who gave "Bluebeard" Watson, the marathon "marry-er" of California, a life sentence in San Quentin penitentiary, has doffed the judicial ermine and donned the red fez of Shrinedom to mingle with the boys In the Rose City this week. He Is Frank R. Willis, superior Judge of the criminal department at Los An-' geles. Judge Willis has presided at many notable California trials, in cluding those of Dynamiters Schmidt and Caplan, accomplices, of the Mc Namara brothers. The San Francisco folks wanted him to go north and try the preparedness day oomb plot trial Implicating Tom Mooney and his crowd, but the judge wanted a much needed rest. Judge Willis and -Btlly" Vinton, president 6f the Oregon state senate, staged a happy reunion at the Elks club during the afternoon. It was just 40 years ago that Judge Willis was a country school loacher at Cog gjn. Ia., and Bill Vinton was his most unruly pupil. Teacher and pupil met yesterday for the first time in two score years, but Billy Vinton could still remember the hickory stick and the way his former teacher could use it. " "Mornin' stranger, glad to see yuh; where yuh from? good-bye." This is the Line of conversation that is going on at registration headquar ters on Broadway where Hugh J. Boyd, chairman, and' his corps of SO assistants on the registration com mittee are engaged busily in regis tering the visitors as fast as they arrive from the station. They're all going at top speed down at the registration booth at general headquarters, and so heavy Is the in flux of red'fezzes throughout the day they haven't a chance in the world to stop and fraternize for a spell with some of the .nobility from other climes. At least 25 members of this com mittee are at work at all hours and at times they call to their assistance many of the clerks and stenographers to assist during the rush hours. The members of this committee will sticK to the job until some time tomorrow morning, when practically all of the visitors will have arrived for the big session. As advance men for Tripoli temple, Milwaukee, Bascon B. Clarke and W. P. Kenny have been here for a cbuple of days fixing up- the "temple oi mirth" which will distinguish Tripoli headquarters from the others. These two nobles have shown themselves to be high-power live wires and if the rest of the crew from Milwaukee show the same pep they're sure to show the home guard boys a real time. One week in Portland simply serves to give a visitor a good appetite and determination to stay at least a week longer, asserts "Bill" Marz of Baltimore, who will be wearing a red fez until finis" is written on the Portland session. Bill came with a Baltimore delegation to the traveling mens convention last week and had the time of his life. This week, as a delegate from Boumi temple, he ex pects to make it the end of a perfect trip. Bill is noted for two things: his corpulency and his smile neither seems able to wear off. Naturally they come from Montana, because they had a full supply of nerve in starting towards Portland by automobile with snow still lingering in spots through the Rocky moun tains and with the Standard Oil com pany throwing a scare into the motor lng public about the scarcity of gaso line. But J. W. Carey and George F. Stannard, Mystic Shrine nobles of Kallspell, Mont., arrived in first-class condition and are ready for the fes tivities. They never had any trouble getting a full supply of gasoline at all places en route and they had but one blowout on the entire trip. If Audrey Steward, aviating Shriner, doesn't have a good tim . in Portland this week it'll be because it's not in the books. At any rate, he deserves the time of his life. When the Shrine special was about to leave Reading, Pa., Mr. Steward was at Allentown, something like 20 miles away. He'd missed train connec tions and it looked for a time like he'd miss the big Portland session. But not so with Noble Steward. He chartered an airplane and in less than 15 minutes was at the Reading sta tion where he climbed aboard for Portland. If the opportunity is pre sented he's determined to get a good view of Portland in an airplane ride over the city. In order to give every possible as sistance to visiting Shriners this week, the Elks club has organized a flying squadron of 300 members to serve as guides and general informa tion "hounds' to all wearers or the fez. None of these 300 committee members is a Shriner, but . they're entering into the spirit. of the thing because they want to help Portland make good as a convention city, and also because they want to be of serv ice to local Shrinedom. Monroe Gold stein is chairman " of this flying squadron committee. As soon as they had alighted from their special train and had a chance to stretch their legs a bit, the band men from Acca temple, Richmond, Va., delighted the crowd with that old southern favorite, "Carry Me Back to Ol' Vlrginny." And then. Just to show the Port' land brothers they really didn't want to leave for a time, they started jlay- "rilTU" .a a Bnntharn VtnrtriK nnlv " - j know how to play this ever-popular air. The applause at the close or the selection was deafening. . Herman Rehborn. private secretary to W. Freeland Kendrick, imperial potentate, has arrived in advance of the official Imperial party and has opened up headquarters at the Mult nomah hotel. ' Colonel H. E. Evans, XT. S. A-, the man who organized the fnfantry school at Camp Benning. is wearing the red fez of Al Orila temple. The colonel Is from Columbus, Ga, and Is here to try and convince the Im perial council that his home town should get a temple. So good Is the infantry school at Camp Benning that the war department now sends its West Point graduates there for post-graduate work in infantry be fore they get commissions.

Brown, Imperial treas urer and one of the nobles of Syria temple, Pittsburg, Pa., is in the city and has opened up. his headquarters at room 719, Multnomah hotel. Hella temple, Dallas, Tex., boasts of one of the biggest men in Masonry attending the Shrine session this week. He is Sam P. Cochran, who is an active 33d-degree Mason and who has gone thVough every branch of Masonry giyen in the United States. "Bill" Truax, city editor of the Dallas Journal and one of the frisky fez-wearers of Hella temple, is here in a dual capacity. He'll march in all the parades and take part in all the ceremonies and then make a dash for the nearest typewriter to grind out a" yarn for the home folks at. Dallas. After he leaves here he's going down to San Francisco and re port the democratic national conven tion for his paper. He'll get out of Portland in first-class -shape, but If he survives the bourbon meeting at the Golden Gate he must chew cactus and drink alkali. It didn't take long for the Al Kader elect to perceive yesterday morning that Murat temple of Indianapolis had arrived in alt its oriental splendor. Its band got Into action in short time, the patrol . executed some fancy marching steps through the streets, in full costume, while its gun squad and chanters also were very much In evidence. t Murat was the first real big delegation to arrive. West Virginia, shh, Is here with bells. Traveling on one of the Sun day morning specials, the Shrine dele gates from Osiris temple, Wheelin- W. Va., arrived with. Walter S.

He formerly was secretary of the Helena Commercial club and knew more about civic pep than the average bank clerk knows about compound interest.

The imperial potentate will commemorate his birthday anni versary on Thursday of this week and It Is being whispered around where the fez-bedecked nobility gather, that a nttie party or two will be on the programme to remind the big cnier tnat he s growing younger year by year. For fear that they wouldn't De able to give him .the proper kind of reception away from home, his brother nobles of Lu Lu temple held their celebration for "Pote" Kendrick on May 17. When "Bill" Hofmann of Al KadeV was telling "Pote" Rowland of El Karubah temple, Shreveport, La., all about the roses In Portland, he also mentioned something about .the Chi nook wind which blows In from the Pacific. And "Pote" Rowland, who arrived at the head of the El Karubah bunch, when their special rolled in yester day, had an answer in poetry to the "invite" which had been sent to him and his faithful. Here's what he says about coming to Portland and the Chi nook wind: 'Way out to Portland town wa rn.'

More than that, they're here with both feet, about 300 strong and ready for -the big doln s. Poten tate Colby E. Smith is the official head of the party.

', Tou can take Charley Goodman's word for it that when an army of rats get real busy they can turn up a lot of mischief. He's sponsor for the statement that a band of Seattle rats recently devoured about 23 cam els. Of course, this couldn't happen anywhere but Seattle, where Mr. Goodman is a decorator of note. These camels. It must be said in the inter ests of truth, were the papier-mache variety, and had been made for local Shrine decorations. The Invasion of the rats necessitated a little extra work, but the job was completed. This Is the sixth time that Mr. Goodman has had charge of exterior decora tlons for Shrine Imperial council ses sions. Members of the hospitality com mittee stationed at the various down town hotels serve as a sort of com bined bell-hop, hotel clerk, porter and general information dispenser. It's up to them to see that the nobility from other cities receive any infor mation they might desire and to tak general charge of the visiting Shrln ers about the hotels. At the Multno mah hotel George B. Schalk, J. R. Mumma and J. F. Slater are the cap tains. The captains at the Portland hotel are Carl J. Thomas, J. Annand and James D. Abbott; at the Imperial hotel.

DULISKY'S BODY TAKEN FROM RIVER Funeral of" Murdered Auto Driver Is Held. SKULL BADLY SMASHED Use of Slayer, Heavy Instrument Instead of Anto by Chains, Is Suspected. The body of Harry- Dubinsky. for hlre car driver, who was murdered on the road between Oregon City and Portland a week ago Sunday, was re covered form the Willamette rrver be low the suspension bridge at Oregon City yesterday morning at 6 o'clock. The body was brougnt to Portland nd the funeral was held yesterday fternoon at 4 o'clock irara the resi dence of Dubinsky's parents. Mr. and Mrs. A. Dubinsky, 734 Second street. After the recovery of the body, E. L. Johnson, coroner at Oregon City, nncunced that an inquest would be held at 2 o'clock-today. A coroner's ury was sworn yesterday and viewed the body before It was removed to Portland. Sheriff to Oct CrlMtner. Seriff Wilson of Clackamas county, also announced hy telephone yester day he would come to Portland today to take Russell Brake and George Moore, the two youths implicated 'n the murder of Dubinsky by Moore s confession, to Oregon City to be ar raigned on charges of murder. The body of the taxi driver was recovered by Harry Calvert, photo grapher, and Fred McCausland, water vorks superintendent, both of Ore gon City. With an impromptu grap pling apparatus made up of a number of sturgeon hooks attached to about four feet of gas pipe, the two began grappling for the body about 6:30 yesterday morning and in about half an hour they had brought it. to the urface. The body was found in about 60 feet of water, probably a hundred feet below the bridge and toward the Oregon City side from the center of the stream. The water at that place consists of back water and there was very little current. Qody Taken By Coroner. The grappling hooks caught Into the shoulder of the man's coat. In "some way the end of a small piece of rope, caugnt In the bottom of the river had wrapped itself around the dead man's body and in bringing it to the surface the grapplers had to break this rope. For this 1 reason. they at first -thought their tackle had caught -upon some debris. The body Immediately was turned over to Coroner. Johnson and taken to the undertaking establishment of Holman & Pace in Oregon City. An autopsy performed there by Dr. H. A. McLean of Oregon City, under the direction of Coroner Johnson showed that the man's skull had been shattered and indicated that he had been struck at least four distinct blows with a heavy instrument. The principal fracture extended from the right ear across the forehead, but there were other fractures breaking the skull into at least 21 distinct pieces. Weapon Believed Heavy. Coroner Johnson, following the au topsy expressed the belief that the man must have been struck by some heavy weapon, possibly by the auto mobile crank. He said he did not be lleve that the automobile chains which Moore said he thought his companion used in doing the driver to death would cause such injuries. Coroner Johnson said It was ap parent that the man had been struck once over the left' eye, once over the bridge of the nose, another time over the right eye and once on the back of the head. Lieutenant of Detectives Goltz, who was one of the leaders in ferreting out the mystery of the driver's death, expressed the belief yesterday that the murderer might have used a ham mer or some other heavy tool usually carried in an automobile kit. Grappling Started Saturday, Grappling for the body had been started at Oregon City under the di rection of Sheriff , Wilson Saturday after Moore, one of the prisoners, had confessed that he and his companion threw the slain man from the Ore gon City bridge. A number of persons spurred on by the 31000 reward offered had also made arrangements to continue their efforts again yesterday. With friends of the family and neighbors overflowing the residence and lining the street for a couple of blocks on both, sides, the funeral of Dubinsky was neia from tne uuDinsxy residence yesterday at 4 o'clock. The services were the simple ritual of the Jewish church, a prayer and a few words. Interment was In the ceme tery of the Sharal Torah congrega tion at Fremont station. Rabbt Faivu Showitz and Rev.

It was announced that no disposi tion of the reward money offered for the recovery of Dubinsky's body would be made until some disinter ested committee, appointed by the mayor or chief of police, could decide who Is to receive the reward. A committee of friends of the Dubinsky family consisting of A. Rosenstein, J. Vldgoff and H. Shwarts now has charge of the 31000. The belief was expressed yester day that the reward might be divided between the men who actually found the body and Miss Bertha Shodahl of Portland, who gave the information leading to the arrest of the two alleged murderers. After the arraignment of the two youths on murder charges at Ore gon City. ' Sheriff Wilson intimated that they might be returned to the Multnomah county Jail for safe keeping. The actual . trial may be deferred until the fall session- of the court at Oregon City, . it was said. That, however, will be decided by District Attorney Hedge of Oregon City. Lieutenant Goltz, of the Portland Inspectors bureau, announced last night that insofar as the Portland officials were concerned the case was closed. 'We have sufficient evidence now to convict the two on the charges of murder and there is no need to con tinue the investigation, now that the body has been recovered." he said. SJLtJGGTXG IX EAST REGALLED Brake Suspected of Being Bowman, Who Attempted Robbery. Is Russell Brake, the - prisoner charged with the murder of Harry Dubinsky, the same boy who, under the name of Russell Bowman, was convicted of slugging a woman and attempting to rob her in Milwaukee, Wis., on November 16, 1914? This is a question that the police probably will try to decide, following the report of a Portland resident who says he is positive that Brake and Bowman are the same person. Brake said last night in the county jail that he had never been in Wisconsin though he had come to Oregon di rectly from the east. The informant, whose name is with held, says he was in Milwaukee when the' ; Wisconsin crime was committed. Bowman, whose home waa in Akron, O., waa convicted and sentenced to serve three years In the reformatory at Green Bay, Wis. His victim hovered between life and death for several days, but finally recovered. The atr tack was made by -Bowman and two other youths, who sought to rob the woman of a considerable sum of money she carried. Bowman's relatives stood by him during the trial and made an effort to have him pardoned immediately after ward. He was sent to the reforma tory, however, and served some time there. Bowman waa 19 years old and if Brake is. the same individual he would be now about 25 years old. He asserts that he is only 20, but his face looks older. Brake only laughed last night when he was asked if he knew about the Milwaukee crime. He said he never had . been in Wisconsin unless he passed through there on the train when he came west. George Moore. who has confessed that he and Brake killed Dubinsky. says Brake had told him that his home was in Akron. O. Miss Bertha Shodahl, whose story to the police resulted in the arrest of Moore and Brake, says Brake had told her his home was in Chicago. Meanwhile Brake looks forth from his prison cell with no concern for the future. "I'm not losing any weight," he said last night. "I don't know whether I'm gaining or not But there is no use for me to talk. The authorities don t know what I know and there wouldn't be any use for me to tell them. I ll talk when the time comes.' Moore told the police that his oar ents had died when he was only 9 years of age and that following that he had been buffeted about pretty much and compelled to make his own way in the world. He said he was born at Baltimore. Md. A letter which Brake had written to his parents was found in hia effects. It had not yet been addressed and consequently did not bear the name or address of his parents. The letter was of a boastful character and asked how the chickens and pigs were, in dicating that the man's parents might live on a farm. I, T idenc Silas G. Kelly Dies.
