KIT DETEHTIOM
E IS NEEDED
Judge Frazer Discusses Wants
of Portland Juvenile
Court.
LEGISLATURE CAW HELP
Free Site Is Offered and Only Fund
for Building Are Wqittcd Sev
eral Changes in Law
Arc Desirable.
The e.slabl!.ilimont of a new attention
homo in i-onjunctlon with the Juvenile
Court may bo looked for as one of the
outcomes of the earning legislative ses
sion. At least a concerted effort to
secure legislative provision Tor such an
Institution is to be made and with the
cost of a site eliminated through
the offer made by private citizens
to give lour acres there is little' doubt
that the plan will succeed and that the
Legislature will cither provide funds or
authorize the county to make the neces
sary expenditure for construction, equip
ment and maintenance.
The four acre tract of land offered by
Bra. S. A. andvE. C. Brown is regarded
as an Ideal site for a detention tome.
It la located on the Mount Tabor earllne
and Ls in a quiet nnd .attractive locality.
Its sire Is sufficient to admit of work
gardens and playgrounds two essential
adjuncts or the institution. .
Circuit Judge A. I. Frazer, the magis
trate of the Juvenile Court ls a hearty
upporter of the new detention home
Idea. He regards it as a very neccf ry
adjunct of the system. There are ca-sea
without number of very bad boys and
girls who should be sent to some such
place.
Other amendments in the Juvenile
Court system are also being urged by
Judge Frazer. and not least of these Is
the extension of the system to other
counties in the state. Multnomah County
alone supports such an institution at this
time. The need in smaller communities,
of course, is not so great, but in such
places as Eugene, Salem, Pendleton,
Albany and The Dalles It Is suggested
that the county judges could be author
ized to serve as magistrates of Juvenile
' Cotirts.
Judge Frazer Outlines Xccds.
Speaking of present needs as regards a
detention home. Judge P'razer said yes
terday: "The detention home now used Is not
large enough to meet the needs. With a
spacious playground, gardens to work In
and a suitable building better results un
doubtedly could be obtained. The boys
take a deep interest In gardening. This
Is shown in the small garden we now
have, but there is not work enough to
keep them busy nor does it afford op
portunity lor extensive instruction in
gardening. There Is now a good workshop where
the boys spend part of their time and be
come quite expert with the tools as
signed them and there is also a good
gymnasium and baseball outfit. Every
effort is put forth by those in charge to
operate the home as a model institu
tion for children. To how great an extent
this work would be expedited with larger
quarters and grounds is obvious."
Regarding amendments to the law
governing the juvenile court. Judge
frazer had this to 'say:
"for one thing we should have pro
bation officers, paid as such and not
be compelled to use bailiffs of the
court for that purpose. The rourt
should also be empowered to authorize
the keeping of children, temporarily
at least, at the county's expense when
necessary. We also need a small emer
gency expense fund, out of which im
mediate necessities of children may
he provided for.
County Court Aids.
Our wants have been supplied by a
county court in full sympathy with the
work, and by charities; but we be
lieve that direct provision should be
made for them in the law. it way be
asked. "Does the work justify the ex
penditure necessary to carry it on?"'
We have saved the county atic city
the expense of the arrest and prose
cution of between 400 and f00 children.
Ve have saved the cost of keeping in
jail or in other county or state insti
tutions a largo number. We believe
that this saving is more than the cost
of the Juvenile court yes, several times
over.
"We believe we have saved, or are
saving, many children from being
criminals, ancl many others from want,
from abuse and from immoral sur
roundings. It seems to those of us
who have been connected with the court
that its work Is of as much import
ance, at least, as fust of any of the
other courts for maintenance of which
public money Is freely and properly
given.
"The juvenile court work Is a large
one. To carry it on properly requires
the expenditure of a great donl of
time by several people. We believe
we are safe in saying that no public
officers have put In more time or
worked harder than the officers of this
court. James G. Blaine once said that
every able-bodied immigrant is worth
to tho country 1500. A boy saved
from a life of crime and made a decent
citizen ought ,to bo worth as much;
and to this wo can add what will be
saved to the state through not being
compelled to prosecute him for future
crimes or care for him in prisons. But
there is greater gain than tho finan
cial one. AVo are saving men and
women.
Cliango tho Age Limit.
Another amendment to the law which
our experlenco has shown 13 needed
relates to the age limit. At present
the Jurisdiction of tho court is limited
to children tinder 16. By reason of
this law wo have lost control of sev
eral children Just at tho time when
control or restraint was most needed;
and we have bcn unable to be of as
sistance to many mothers In control
ling their boys because they trcro a
few months, perhaps only a few days,
past 1 6.
"I think it would be advisable to
raise the ago limit to 18, with the pro
vision that In case a very serious crime
has been committed or for other suf
ficient cause the case may be trans
ferred to the ordinary criminal courts
for trial.
"In connection with the law relating
to contrtbutary delinquency, it would
be a greater advantage to have a spe
cial deputy District Attorney assigned
to the juvenile court. The cases, being
against adults who have contributed
to the delinquency of minors, cannot be
tried in the juvenile court but must
be heard in the Circuit Court, and it
ls noceswary that a regular Information
be filed by the District Attorney. The
District Attorney's office force aa now
organized has given us willing assist
ance in these matters, but as they are

NEW TEAR'S DAY will be an occa
sion of celebration for the Wood
men of the World, who at that
time will dedicate their beautiful temple,
which has just been completed, on Elev
enth street, between Washington and Al
der. The members of the order are pre
paring for a great jollification, and expect
their ranks to be augmented by their
brothers in Woodcraft from all parts of
the state. The exercises will commence
tomorrow, but the dedication proper will
not be held until Tuesday.
The building which the Woodmen have
erected is one of the most attractive fra
ternal edifices in the city. It is a four
story structure, and was built at a cost
of about $30,000. The entire valuation of
the property, including the site, Is ap
proximately $60,000. Unlike most of the
local fraternal buildings, the Woodmen's
temple will be used exclusively for the
purposes of the order no portion of it
accustomed to proceed in a formal way
in the Circuit Court and are usually
busy with important cases, we have
not always felt at 'liberty to call upon
them in cases not particularly serious.
"There are two savings." concluded
Judge Frazer. "which it is worth while
keeping in mind while considering the
subject of juvenile courts. One is the
motto of the Boys' and Girls' Aid So
ciety: "It is wiser and less expensive
to save children than to punish crim
inals.' The other Is the saying of Dr.
G. Stanley Hall: 'There is nothing in
all the world that is more worthy of
love, of reverence and of service than
the body and soul of a young child.' "
TWO WIVES ASK DIVORCE.
Tired of Being Cursed and Beaten
by Brutal Husbands.
John Ilengeveld, of Linnton, failed to
make good a series of promises of
docile behavior, which he made his
wife. Sadie Hengeveld. .two months ago.
At that time the wife- had begun di
vorce proceedings, charging cruelty,
but the head of the family pleaded so
earnestly and promised so faifhfully to
behave well thereafter, that the suit
was allowed to rest. 1'esterday tho
wife filed the papers.
Mrs. Hengeveld found that her hus
band's promises were idle and that his
conduct did not remain improved for
any considerable length of time. The
complaint was filed in the State Circuit
Court and it sets out that the husband
has been guilty of constant brutality
since their marriage at Vancouver,
Wash., In June, 1903. The wife says
he has beaten her and cursed her until
she can stand it no longer. She asks
the custody of their three children, ali
mony in the sum of $25 per month and
a deed to the family home at Linnton,
worth $1630.
Denouncing her husband as a vicious
and vulgar person, Mrs. Anna Carlson
asks for a decree of divorce from
John Carlson and for the custody of
their 5-year-old child. Mrs. Carlson
filed suit In the State Circuit Court
yesterday afternoon, setting out as her

on the West Side.
The exercises leading up to the dedica
tion will commence tomorrow night at 8
o'clock. At that time it is expected that
a class of 500 candidates will be initiated
into the mysteries of Woodcraft. There
are two commodious halls in the two
buildings, and both will be used In the
dedicatory exercises. In order to expe
dite the work of bringing' such a large
class into the order, the ceremonies will
be held simultaneously in the upper and
lower halls. A separate group of officers
will be in charge in each hall, as fol
lows: Lower hall William Reidt, consul com
mander; C. O. Johns, past consul; S. A.
McCormick. adviser lieutenant; C. C.
Scott, banker; W. H. Smith, escort: J. W.
Stephenson,, watchman; J. W. McCarthy,
sentry; E. D. Williams. George Reynard
and J. II. Bush, managers, and the Uni
cause of action that Carlson frequently
beats, curses and abuses her. He has
also threatened her life, flirted with
other women, tried to drive her from
home and made life with him alto
gether unbearable, she says. The cou
ple were married in Portland, August
26, 1809.
SUE ON" A HOP CONTRACT.
IMncus Brothers Allege That D. C.
Saling Broke Agreement.
D. C. Saling, of Ballston, Polk Coun
ty, has been made the defendant In a
suit filed by James and H. II. Pincus,
of Tacoma, to recover $2800 alleged
to have been advanced on a hop con
tract that was not fulfilled by Saling.
Teal & Minor, counsel for the com
plainants, allege in their bill that their
clients entered into a contract with
Saling for his entire crop of hops,
which was estimated to bo about 40.000
pounds, at 15 cents per pound, the hops
to be delivered in good condition, free
from mould nnd clean. On this con
tract $800 was advanced when It was
made and- later the sum of $2800 was
paid over by the Pincus brothers, but
when the hops were delivered, it Is
alleged, they were found to be in bad
condition, for that reason the plain
tiffs seek to have the last named
amount refunded The suit is filed In
tho United States Circuit Court.
Wants $15,000 for Broken Hip.
Damages in the sum of $15,000 for
a broken leg and hip are asked of
the Peninsular Lumber Company by
Barney Haven, formerly a laborer at
the company's mill. Haven filed suit
In the State Circuit Court yesterday
afternoon. He was disabled for life,
he says, through being crushed by a
heavy truck. The accident could have
been avoided with due care on the
part of those working with him, he
says.

Telegraph Company Is Sued.
In the Circuit Court yesterday the
Western Union Telegraph Company
was sued for damages for the failure
of a machinery deal to go through. E.
G. Amme, the plaintiff, is a machinery
speculator. Amme. says that he had a
deal on hand whereby he was to sell
machinery for $1350 at a profit of $320
to himself. The machinery was In Cal
ifornia, and to verify his representa
tions as to its condition a telegram
was forwarded to the parties in charge.
Through delay and negligence of the
company's employes, Amme says the
telegram did not reach Its destination
until too late for him to effect the
sale, thus causing the loss of his com
mission. SHOOTING IN CHINATOWN

STRIKING CARMEN ACTIVE
Attempt to Induce Working Conduc
tors and Motormen to Join.
Pickets of the streetcar strikers were
active last night in the downtown dis
tricts, and for several hours the police
were kept busy clearing the sidewalks
and preventing crowds from gathering.
No arrests were made and, although
many conductors and motormen were
asked to desert their posts on the Wash
ington street, Morrison street and Third
street lines not one recruit was added to
the ranks of the idle ex-employes of the
Portland Railway. Light & Power Com
pany, who have been out two weeks.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
police have been severely criticised by
Vice-President Burton, of the Street
car Employes' Union for what he called
"unwarranted activity," Chief Gritx
roacher declares that the strikers will re
ceive only fair play, and that he has
promised them since the strike was
called. On the other hand, he states, he
will not- tolerate violence, and crowds
will not be permitted to gather on the
streets to agitate disorder or to attack
property, as was done on the Saturday
night three weeks ago. As long as the
pickets devote their efforts to quiet,
peaceful persuasion the police will not
molest them, the Chief states, but order
will be preserved.
As it seems evident that the strikers
are stll struggling to win what is gener
ally regarded as a lost cause. Chief Grits
xnacher is maintaining reserves at police
headquarters, and will continue to do so
until the affair is finally adjusted.
CHUPIN RETIRES '
FROM THE FIGHT
Multnomah County Candidate
for Speakership Announces
. His Withdrawal.
DAVEY AND VAWTER LEFT
Cbapin Decides He Cannot Win
AVitliout United Support of Del
egation Davcy Apparent
ly In the Lead.
As a result of five Multnomah Repre
sentatives tying up to Davey, of Marion,
for Speaker In the Oregon Legislature,
which meets two weeks from tomorrow.
W. H. Chapin. of Multnomah, who had
been a candidate, yesterday withdrew
from the contest saying that without a
united Multnomah delegation behind him
It was useless for him to try for outside
support. Chapin leaves the field to Vaw
ter. of Jackson, and to Davey. Ills sup
porters In Multnomah, six or eight ip
number, are expected to vote for Vawtcr
In the Republican caucus.
This action of Chapin's stimulated the
contest between Davey and Vawter yes
terday. A third aspirant. B. F. Jones, of
Polk-Lincoln; is not considered a serious
factor, except so far as he may throw
several votes to either of the two leadinar
candidates, and decldo the Issue between
them, should It be close.
V.-iwter and Davey conflict In their
claims, as to the votes of some 12 Rep
resentatives, as follows: Brown and
Upmeyer, of Linn; Eaton, Washburne
and Edwards, of I,ane; Reals, of Tilla
mook; Dye, of Clackamas; Harryman.
of Klamath, Belknap, of Crook; Dobbin,
of Wallowa; Pike, of Sherman; Donnel
ly, of Gilliam. These 12 are claimed
by both candidates. McC'ue and Brlx.
of Clatsop, ore a'lso claimed On each
side, and farrell and Beutgen, of Mult
nomah, and Purdy, Barrett and Newell,
of Washington, although it Is admitted
by both that the latter seven have not
made declaration of the way they will
vote. Excluding the foregoing 19 votes
from the total 59 In the House, the re
maining 40 are claimed as follows:
By Davey Settlemier, Rodgcrs, Rey
nolds, Simmons and Davey, of Marion:
Chase, of Coos: Carter, of Benton;
Bones and Crawford, of Yamhill: Hunt
ley, of Clackamas: Adams. Bayer,
Burns, Coffey and Driscoll, of Multno
mah: Connell, of Columbia: Slnsher,
Sten and Barrett, of Umatilla: Moore,
of Baker; King, of Malheur; Knowles.
of Wasco, and Holt, of Linn 23.
By Vawter Jackson and Gray, of
Douglas; Rackleff, of Curry; Jewell, of
Josephine: Perkins and Kubli and
Vawter, of Jackson: Jones, of Clacka
mas: ' Beveridge, Chapin, freeman,
Northup and Wilson, of Multnomah;
Campbell, of Clackamas-Multnomah,
and Hendrick, of Wasco 15.
By Jones, of Polk-Lincoln McCallon
and Jones, of Polk.
The five Multnomah men who
wrecked the Chapin boom are Adams.
Burns, Coffey, Driscoll and Bayer. With
them they say are farrell and Beut
gen. A futile attempt was made yes
terday by the Chapin forces to line
up the five for united support in Mult
nomah of Chapin. and after it was
found that they were obdurate. Chapin
decided to puli out of the contest.. He
says that there are eight Representa
tives remaining in his camp. Including
Campbell of Clackamas-Multnomah,
who will go in a body to the candidate
of their choice. While the Chapin
forces will not admit that they will
probably support Vawter. that seems
to be their desire and intention. The
Davey forces aver, however, that there
ace not eight Multnomsh votes in their
camp; only five or six. Vawter had
a conference with Chapin and others
of Chapin's followers, and seemed con
fident lie would receive between six
and eight votes from Multnomah.
Regarding his withdrawal, Mr. Chapin
said last night:
"It Is no use for me to continue a can
didate, without the support of a united
Multnomah delegation; therefore I step
down and out. Mr. Driscoll said to me
today that he and four other Multnomah
representatives had made up their minds
to support Davey. I responded that If
he and they wished to go to Salem with
a split Multnomah delegation. and
thought It best for the interests of his
county to divide its forces. I would make
no objection, but that I thought it hetter
for all of us to be united. I felt that if
the five had not pledged themselves to
Davey. my chances were exceptionally
good."
"Will you and your friends support
Vawter?" was asked.
"That will be decided by the eight of us
remaining. If they shall decide to sup
port either Vawter or Davey. I shall be
with them. I shan't try to use my In
fluence one way or the other. When Mr.
Vawter came to see me today. I told him
my action would depend on that of the
other seven of our members. He said
that If he should receive our eight votes
he would have a good chance. I don't
know how that Is. I do know, however,
that Davey has. been claiming votes that
have not been pledged to him. The fact
is. a number of outjdde Representatives
were waiting to see what Multnomah
County members were going to do. Had I
received the united support of Multnomah,
they would have come to me. Now some
of them will go to Vawtcr, and others to
Davey."
FEAR MARRIAGE IS BINDING
Participants In Mock Wedding Ap
peal to Courthouse Attaches.
Two Portland young people kept CTourt
house attaches busy for a time yesterday
trying to ascertain whether or not they
were married. The young couple In ques
tion did not know and were trying to
find out. The problem is not yet fully
solved. Thcli alarm followed a mock
wedding which occurred Thursday even
ing at the R. G. Clyde dramatic school.
The ceremony was performed bj- a
woman spiritualist and It developed later
that she had been licensed to perform
marriage ceremonies.
When this Information reached the
mimic bride and groom a hurry call was
sent in to the County Courthouse. Deputy
County Clerk Chrlstensen advised the
bride that the quickest way out of the
difficulty was through the divorce court,
if she was not satisfied with the alliance.
The matter was referred to Judge Frazer
who suggested that if neither party was
in earnest the marriage was not binding.
A lack of popularity to mimic marriages
will be noted at the Clyde establishment
hereafter.

Charcoal Kills
Bad Breath
Disagreeable Odor Arising From In
digestion or From Any Habit or
Indulgence, Can Be In
stantly Stopped.
Sample Package Mailed Free.
Other people notice your bad breat
where you would not notice It at all.
It is nauseating to other people to
stand before them and while you are
talking, give them a whin or two of
your bad breath. It usually comes from
food fermenting on your stomach.
Sometimes you have it in the morning
that awful sour, bilious, bad breath.
You can stop that at once by swallow
ing one or two Stuart Charcoal Lozenges,
the most powerful gas and odor ab
sorbers ever prepared.
Sometimes your meals will reveal
themselves in your breath to those who
talk with you. "You've had onions," or
"You've been eating cabbage," and all
of a sudden you belch in the face of
your friend. Charcoal is a wonderful
absorber of odors, as every one knows.
That is why Stuart s Charcoal Lozenges
are so quick to stop all gases and odors
of odo.rous foods, or gas from indiges
tion. Don't use breath perfumes. They
never conceal the odor, and never ab
sorb the gas that causes the odor. Be
sides, the very fact of using them
reveals tho reason for their use.
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges in the first
place stop for good all sour brash and
belching of gas. and make your breath
pure, fresh and sweet. Just after you've
eaten. Then no one will turn his face
away from you when you breathe or
talk: your breath will be pure and
fresh, and besides your food will taste
so much better to you at your next
meal. Just try it.
Charcoal does other wonderful
things, too. It carries away from your
stomach and intestines, all the impuri
ties thero massed together and which
causes the bad breath. Charcoal is a
purifier as well as an absorber.
Charcoal is now by far the best, most
easy and mild laxative known. A
whole boxful will do no harm; in fact,
the more you take the better. Stuart's
Charcoal Lozenges are made of pure
willow charcoal and mixed with just a
faint flavor of honey to make them
palatable for you. but not too sweet.
You just chew them like candy. They
are absolutely harmless.
Get a new, pure, sweet breath, fresh
en your stomach for your next meal,
and keep tho Intestines In good work
ing order. These two things are the
secret of good health and long life.
You can get all the charcoal necessary
to do these wonderful but simple
things by getting Stuart's Charcoal
Lozenges. We want you to test these
little wonder workers yourself before
you buy them. So send us your full
name and address for a free samplo of
Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges. Then after
you have tried the sample, and been
convinced, go to tour druggist and get
