in
40 WITNESSES CALLED
Later Investigation Expected to
Weed Out Trouble Makers and
Strengthen Discipline.
Everything- is in readiness for the
hearing ofe charges which have been
filed against John E. Young-, chief
of the Portland fire department,
which is scheduled to open in the
city council chambers at 9:30 o'clock
this morning1.
The charges were first filed by
C. C. Brown, an apartment house
manager, who shortly after filing the
charges repudiated them as untrue
and in a public statement named
A. L. Pullen and Frank J. McFarland,
two inspectors of the fire marshal's
office, as the men who induced him
to Bign and file the charges.
As soon as Mr. Brown withdrew
from the case Inspector Pullen re-
filed the charges and the hearing
was set. The charges include alleged
intoxication while on duty, disorderly
and immoral conduct and general ln-
incieney.
Attention Centers on Bureau.
Due to the general knowledge "that
members of the fire marshal's office
have been active for months in an
effort to oust Fire Chief Young, the
attention of the public is turned to
this bureau, as well as to the charges
brought against Chief Young.
Demand has been made for thor
ugh hearing to show the condition of
the fire bureau, and the cause for the
dissension which is crippling the en
tire bureau.
While the hearing will be before
City Commissioner Bigelow, all other
members of the council will attend
to gain first-hand knowledge of con
ditions in the fire department.
It is freely predicted that regard
less of the outcome of the hearing
the charges are but the preliminary
to a general investigation of the en
tire department to be carried on to
weed out the trouble-makers and to
bring about discipline once more in
the ranks of the department.
Korty Witnesses Called.
It is understood that more than 40
witnesses have been called by the two
sides, and that the case will probably
consume more than a day. The sub
penas were signed at noon yesterday
by Mayor Baker and Commissioner
Eigelow, but no announcement was
made of the list of witnesses, as the
officials did not care to have any of
the witnesses informed in advance of
the serving of the summons. .
Wallace IVIcCamant has been re
tained as chief counsel for Chief
Young, while the firemen who are
attempting to bring about the re
moval of the present fire chief will
be represented by Milton R. Kiepper
and A. K. Flegel.

OUBLE-HEAD feature bills sel
dom offer two attractions of

ception is the rule at the Liberty the
ater this week, where Charlie Chaplin
in "Pay Day" easily captures the com
edy honors and Katherine McDonald,
in "The Woman's Side," runs away
with the dramatic honors of the bill.
The new Chapiin vehicle contains
considerable humorous originality, but
it is nevertheless essentially Chaplin
esque. . He ioes introduce a number of
different comedy stunts, but his usual
by-plays are consistently in evidence.
Yet the picture was created for laugh
ing purposes and it achieves that, and
that is about all that can be expected
of a Chaplin comedy.
Henri Keates, the Liberty organist,
in playing the comedy picture got in
some excellent comedy twists of his
own, which added materially to the
laugh-provoking qualities of the pic
ture. Katherine McDonsfid in "The Wo
man's Side" did excellent work. It is
an entertaining story, containing a
.rapid succession of highly dramatic
moments, unfolding the plot logically
and convincingly and revealing a
charming romance.
Primarily "The Woman's Side" is a
newspaper story and in one title the
long-suffering press is referred to as
"the maker and breaker of men."
When that title was flashed the re
viewer innocently bslieved that it re
ferred to women; but no, it was ap-

MUKDEH CASE CORROBORATED
W. X. Cobb, Pioneer Resident of
Sisters, Witness for State Against
Weston at Bend.
BEND, Or., April 19. (Special.)
The testimony of George Stillwell
that he and A. J. Weston visited the
hermit cabin of R. H. Krug of Sisters,
on the night of March 24, 1919, to kill
and rob Krugf was corroborated by
W. N. Cobb, pioneer resident of
Sisters, who testified here this after
noon in the Weston murder trial that
on the morning after the fire which
destroyed Krug's home, he Saw tracks
In the snow leading to the ruins of
the house. One pair of tracks was
large, the other smaller, the larger
ones corresponding with those found
near a pail which Weston in his prev
ious trial here in 1920, testified he
put down near the house earlier the
same morning after walking to the
Krug ranch to get eggs and seeing
that the" hoiuse had burned.
Mr. Cobb's wife. Sisters telephone
operator, told of 'receiving a call
from Weston that morning, saying
that he had started for Krug's. had
seen the ruins of the body of Krug,
and had gone to a nearby ranch house
to telephone. He asked her to notify
the 'Sheriff, she said.
Cross examination of Stillwell, the
state's star witness, by John C. Col
lier and Karl Bernard for the defense,
occupied the greater part of the, day.
Stillwell was caught in minor contra
dictions, particularly in comparison
with his testimony in thj former trial,
but in the essentials hLs story was
unshaken.

-t plied, politically especially, to the
widespread Influence of the press.
Nevertheless, for a wonder this fea
ture contains a newspaper story that
is different The usual threadbare
theme Is absent. The present story
shows the oress functioning as it
strives to constructively and not de
structively.
Miss McDonald Jn the stellar role Is
virtually in every scene, but she is
so easy to look at and works so splen
didly that any fan will welcome her
many appearances. '
t Screen Gossip.
Judging by newspaper reports,
"Papa" Hays has rung down the cur
tain on Fatty Arbuckle s ecreen ca
reer.
Walter Hiers, fat funmaker, has an
important role in support of Agnes
Ayres and Jack Holt in the screen
version of the famous stage success,
"Bought and Paid For," which shows
at the Columbia theater soon.
Mae Murray's latest screen success,
"Fascination," is booked to open at
the Liberty theater next Saturday.
Miss Murray was seen at the Liberty
several months ago in "Peacock Al
ley."
For the first time in their nine
years of screen experience, Wallace
and Noah Beery, villains extraordi
nary, appear in the same photoplay,
"Wild Honey," which opens at the
Majestic theater Saturday. The fa
mous "heavy" brothers have roles of
considerable Importance in the pro
duction, supporting Priscilla Dean,
the star.
One of the many big scenes In "A
Virgin Paradise," the attraction at
the Blue Mouse theater this week, is
the one showing the eruption of an
active volcano in the South Sea
islands. One sees the hot streams of
lava pouring down the mountain side.
Another i3 the fight between the
young girl, who has been reared with
wild animals on the island and who is
brought to New York, and the villain.
Seldom has there been a fight between
a man and a woman more thrilling
been filmed.
cial.) Charles Hunter, republican,
candidate for the Wallowa county
nomination to the house, is a brother
of Albert Hunter, democrat, and can
didate for the nomination to the house
from Union county to succeed himself.
The two brothers came from a family
of staunch democrats, and Albert re
mained at home, both having been
born and reared in the Grand Ronde

sought his fortune away from home.
The latter settled down in Wallowa
