"St. Louis Fat'' Here. William CofC
man, alias "St, IxjuIs Fat." wanted to
answer for complicity In the murder of
Policeman Robinson in San Francisco,
January 21, was here yesterday for a few
hours In charge of Policemen "Wrenn and
Taylor, on his way to San Francisco for
trial. Coffman had been arrested in Win
nipeg, Canada. As he stepped from the
train at the Terminal Depot he was
laughing and talking with his captors as
if he had been on a picnic, and to re
lievo the San Francisco officers, who were
tired out with their vigil. Detective Cor
dano took charge of the prisoner and
conducted him to the city jail until tho
time arrived for the train to start. Coff
man denied all knowledge of the murder
and asserted that ho was not near San
Francisco when Policeman Robinson was
killed. He declined to state why he had
gone to Winnipeg. After tho San Fran
cisco men were rested, the prisoner was
taken to the depot and again placed on
the train. Policeman Taylor, one of
Coffman's guards who was shot and
ellghtly wounded by the desperadoes
when Robinson lost his life, is Just re
covering from the effects of his wound
and 'Is proud in the possession of the sil
ver medal he received for bravery from
the Chief of Police of San Francisco. It
will be remembered that a few weeks ago
"Sermon Hartrodt, alias St. Louis Frank,
-was arrested in this city for complicity
In the murder of Robinspn, and was also
sent to San Francisco for trial.

Final arrangements will be made for the
mass meeting to be held Friday evening,
April 25, under the auspices of the State
Federation of Women's Clubs. Mrs.
Conde Hamlin, of St. Paul, will address
the meeting at the Exposition building.
She is president of the Women's Civic
Improvement League of St. Paul, chair
man of the Minnesota Federated Com
mittee on Town and County Improve
ment, and second vice-president of the
American League of Civic Improvement.
The last-named league has asked the
Lewis and Clark Civic Improvement As
sociation for a written article on "Port
land from a Civic Standpoint."
Market Phoject a Go. Tho Co-operative
market project of the retail grocers
is meeting with success, say its promo
ters. Last week one of the promoters
was in Astoria soliciting subscriptions to
stock. This week he will go to Vancou
ver on the same mission. The goal of the
promoters is $10,000, which will be the
capita of the corporation. That sum is
nearly raised, they say, and this month
will see the project organized. Whole
salers Teport that the new credit system
continues to go around like a greased
wheel. The only habitual delinquents
are Chinese and Italian buyers. Opposi
tion to the credit system has largely sub
sided, "Retailers have apparently taken
more kindly to it since they have seen
that it is not aimed at their detriment,
but at the advantage of everybody," said
a wholesaler yesterday.

STUART COMPANY COMES
Ready for Opening; Lons Engage
ment at the Baker.
The Stuart Company, which will open
a 10 weeks' engagement at the Baker The
ater, arrived in Portland late Friday
night, and all day yesterday they were
busy superintending the transfer of their
belongings to the theater, whose dressing
rooms were soon resplendent with an ar
ray of clothing the like of which has never
before been seen in the theater.
In the company are Ralph Stuart, Lan
sing Rowan, Katherine Countess, Eliza
beth Stuart Lewis Frohoff, Lewis A. Mor
rison, Charles Garrolds, Frank Sheridan,
Charles P. Clary and several others. They
soon found permanent quarters, and. af
ter their belongings had been bestowed
at the theater, spent the remainder of the
day looking at Portland, which many of
them have already seen.
Mr. Stuart last played Portland eight
years ago when he appeared In Jacob
LItt's original production of "In Old Ken
tucky." The best thing Miss Rowan ever
did here was th wronged girl in "The.
A NEW BABY.
Old One Made Over, by Grape-Xuts.
A delicious food that is nourishing for
both mother and Infant may be depended
upon to fit other people. This mother's
story is interesting.
"My baby Is now a fine, robust little
fellow two years and six months old, but
I bad a dreadful time with him at first
I could not nurse him because I was so
weak I did not have the milk for him, so
I gave him different kinds of foo'ds, but
he was crying nearly all of the time and
would vomit after every meal.
"His condition worked on my nerves
dreadfully, and I called in Dr. Campbell.
After inquiring carefully Into the case
he said: Tou send at once for some
Grape-Nuts, take four teaspoonful3 in a
cup of hot milk on going to bed, also feed
your baby on some of tho food In hot
milk.'
"Well, I followed the doctor's advice
with good results at once. I could nurse
my baby and he began to Improve Immedi
ately. I, myself, got strong and well
very rapidly.
"The neighbors were, of course. Inter
ested and they would always say, 'How
fast you are Improving," 'How the little
boy grows,' 'He don't look like the same
baby, what are you feeding him?' So I
have had to tell them one and all how
Grape-Nuts have brought us both back
to health. I wish other mothers knew of
the value of this food."

Charity Ball," which ehe did while she
was with the original Frawley Company,
which Included Frank Worthing, Blanche
Bates, Gladys Wallls, Harry Corson
Clarke, H. D. Blakemore and a number
of others who, like Miss Rowan, have
since gained great distinction. She has
also appeared In Portland in "A Mllk
Whlte Flag" and with Charles Dickson In
"Mistakes "WIU Happen." Frank Sheridan
was long the "leading heavy" with the
Daniel Frohman Lyceum Company, and
has a wide reputation as a clever and
capable actor. Among other parts he has
created was the Indian In the original
production of "The- Girl I Left Behind
Me."
The other members of the company
have all filled important engagements, and
are well known throughout the country.
Tho company has just concluded a most
successful season in Seattle, and are look
ing forward with pleasure to their open
ing this afternoon.
WHAT WORTH SAID.
Worth, the great French dressmaker,
says: "No lady need take a dress of me
that is not a perfect fit" It may be a
surprise to many ladles that Portland's
popular cloak and suit house makes the
same guarantee. The Sllverfield Fur
Manufacturing Company has an enviable
reputation for the fit of their tailor
mado suits. This is only accomplished by
a perfect system of alteration which this
house has the exclusive possession xof.
