et the preliminary hearing of the
case for Wednesday at 2. .10.
According to Information In the
hands of Assistant United States At
torney Flegel the four men, after re
turning $25 of the $150 given them
by Mc-N'eil, divided It among them.
They also were said to have divided
the liquor, which they intended to
sell at $10 a bottle.
Two of tho men, Byrne and Dennis,
were said to have confpssed. Carr de
clared that he was not in the party at
all. His two companions, however, as
serted that he was.
Tall Made Wrdnenday Might.
According to Flegel th four men
went to the room ctf McNeil Wednes
day night. Garrison and Carr remained
In the automobile while Byrne and
Dennis went to the room. The room
was searched by the two men. who
were said to have told McNeil that
they were working under J. O. Iin
yllle, federal prohibition director.
When they found the six bottle of
liquor they placed McNeil under ar
rest but later agreed to dismiss the
charges when he gave them $150.
The arrests were maiio when Mc
Neil became suwptelous and got in
touch with federal officials. At the
time of his arrest, Byrne was wear
ing a special deputy game warden
badge of th State of Oregon No. 547
and Dennis had special game warden
badge No. 545. Both were armed. Carr
wore badge No. 6 of the northwestern
service and carried credentials of the
league.
Charges Are to Be Fared.
Flegel declared that the men would
Be compelled to face charges of im
personating a federal prohibition of
ficer and conspiracy to violate the
Volstead act. The first of these car
ries a penalty of one year In the
county Jail and a fine of $1000 or
both. The second bears a maximum
penalty of $10,000 and two years in
Jail.
It was announced last night that
the governor's office had started an
investigation to determine how the
men had obtained their special deputy
game warden's stars.
The Northwest Law and Order
liague is supported by private organ
izations and individuals largely and
Is supposedly engaged In assisting the
authorities in the enforcement of the
prohibition law.
Mr. Snyder, manager of the league,
declared that he had confidence In
the men arrested, inasmuch as they
had been turning In much "stuff" to
the authorities. He said he would
co-operate in every way In assisting
the authorities in clearing: up ' the
matter.

Fire Inspectors to Make Arrewts If
ItubtiiKh Is Left Around.
The curtailment of the Inspector's
force In the fire marshal's office, due
to a cut in the budget, will lead to
more rigid requirements In the time
for cleaning up rubblnh in basements
and other fire hazards, according to
Commissioner Blgelow. Hereafter ln
epectora will be authorized to pro
ceed with arrests upon notification
to owners to clean up.

wood containers for ashes are being
found throughout the city daily and
owners are being haled Into police

to this type of offenders. Marshal

He recommended that property

THRONG SEES KLAN FILM
"The Face at Your Window" Pre
sented at Auditorium.
Thousands of people visited the
municipal auditorium Thursday eve
ning and witnessed the William F"ox
motion picture production, "T h e
Face at Your Window." given under
the auspices of tho local order of
the Ku Klux Klan.
Long before the picture started
lines of citizens were at the ticket
windows seeking admission and there
was scarcely standing room when the
picture was flashed on the screen.
The picture is held to "tell the truth
about the Ku Klux Klan." It was
accompanied by an explanatory lec
ture by one of the Klan leaders.
PETE VALCOX, a Greek, conducts
a shooting gallery at 273 Burn
side street. Possessed of the Christ
mas spirit, he decided to give a tur
key to any shooter who could hit the
bullseyo on one of his small targets.
B. S. White, a youth with a keen
eye, wandered into the place yester
day morning to try his aim. The first
shot struck dead center on the bulls
eye, and Pete lost a turkey. Business
looked bad. White took another shot
and again clipped the mark. Just a
little to one side of his first, shot.
Things looked worse for Pete. White's
third shot was as lucky as his second.
White claimed three turkeys.
"Only one." declared Pete. "You
must hit the bullseye directly In the
center and your last two shots went
wide."
White lost patience and decided to
sue. so filed suit for $5 In the small
claims court.
Pete rushed immediately to Judge
Delch with the targets.
"Only one turkey," said Pete.
"Can't you see he hit only one bulls
eye?" "Well, it looks to me like he hit
three," declared Judge Delch. "You
had better pay him or give him two
more turkeys.
"I won't pay him at all," declared
Pete. "It's a gambling game, and
gambling debts won't hold In Ore
gon." "So It's a gambling game, ls.it?"
said the Judge. "That being the case,
you come with me and we will' see
the district attorney."
"No, no; I was mistaken," hedged
Fete. "It's no gambling game.""
The case is set for trial next
