Stock Company,
The glamour of the footlights, aided
iinrl abetted by Dan Cupid, was re
sponsible for the names of Mr. and
Mrs. L. R. G. Moriarity on the regis
ter of a local hotel last night, and for
the vigil of a widowed mother, who
watrhed at home for the 'young daugh
ter who had assumed wifehood without
the- maternal consent. Miss Marguer
ite I-rf-asure and Lionel Morrie (Mo
riarity) were married late yesterday
f vening by Uev. Fred J. Warren at
the latter's residence, and because Mrs.
Moriarity's husband is an actor and
not acceptable to the lady's mother
nor her grandfather, she cannot go
home. The wedding was as complete
a. surprise to Mrs. Measure as such, af
fairs always are. and. to quote her
words, "came as a thunderbolt out of
a clear sky."
Mr. Moriarity. a native son of old
Ireland, who has not been In this coun
try long enough to drop his musical
brogue. Is the popular "heavy" man o
the Lyric Theater, and his courtship
of winsome Miss Leasure was short,
but successful. While the couple have
known each other tout a few weeks, it
was a case of love at first sight, and
they have managed to see a. great deal
of each other, despite the efforts of
the young lady's mother and grand
' father. Mrs. Leisure was bitterly op
posed to her daughter keeping com
pany with the young stock company
member, and had forbidden her to re
ceive his attentions. The announce
ment of the issuance of the marriage
license, published In last evening's pa
pers, was the first intimation she had
that the clandestine courtship had cul
minated in a wedding, and she has not
yet consented to receive the new son-in-law
and the recreant daughter.
Mrs. Moriarity is a member of one
of Oregon's oldest pioneer families, her
father, the late John C. Leasure. having
been for many years a prominent law
yer of Pendleton and later of Port
land. He was several times candidate
for Congress, and was prominent in
local politics. Mrs. Leasure is a mem
ber of the Rlakeley family, also prom
inent among the state's pioneers. Her
father. William Blakeley. resided in
L'matllla County ' for many years, and
her grandfather, William James Ulake
ley, now lives in Brownsville, Linn
County. The Leasure home in Port
land is at 547 Sixth street.
Mr. and Mrs. Moriarity have for
mulated no plans, and it is jqulte prob
able that the groom will continue his
engag-ement with the Lyric Stock Com
pany. The bride sat In the audience
last night and watched her liego lord
play the villain In the play, with a
smile of happiness on her young face
and a world of trust in her pretty
eyes. And there was not a spectator
in the crowded theater, where the
news Was whispered about, who did

one.

WASHIiUTOX. Feb. 23. The Inter
state Commerce Commission today sent
to the Senate a report concerning the
investigation made of the working of
the block system to prevent railroad
accidents. The commission recom
mends the passage of a bill, which it
submitted a year ago, that would com
pel railroads to adopt the system, but
now suggests that the time for com
pliance be extended so that the roads
may have time to adopt the system.
"Whether a law Is passed at the present
session or not, the commission asks
that it be authorized to make an offi
cial investigation of all train accidents.

CHICAGO. Feb. 3. Mrs. Flora Jlc
1'ionald was arraigned today upon the
ehnrgo of killing Webster t'iuerin. Her
mental condition was suli that the
case viis continued until March j. Her
physicians say that her teuson may
never be restored.
Out of tlit; mass of extravagant ru
mors which were set going by the
trn,-cdy of the studio in the Omaha
building, which cost Webster J. Guerin
his life on Thursday, the police thought
las', night that they had evolved the
true story of the motives which led
up to the crime.
The stories of blackmail and the mer
cenary features that at lirst appeared to
have a large pltee in the case have been
partly discarded, leaving the bare facts,
the story of tiie unreasoning love of an
nlder woman for a young man, wlto had
rown tired of her. She gave him some
money, but it now appears :ihe did it vol
untarily and because of her infatuation.
Probably the most Important of the dis
ovcries that caused the police to abandon
ihe tirst theories of the case was that of
i printed verse torn from a magazine,
ivhich Mrs. Flora McDonald. Ouerin's slay
er, appears to have carried with her all the
-ime. Thumb-mai ken and worn from
much handling, the bit of paper is be
lieved to hold the crux of the situation.
The verse is:

Talk of new sensations, there is no com
parison with the shocks the legislators
felt when the conductor of the Southern
Pacirtc train scornfully waved their prof
fered bits of pasteboard aside.
Deep set in the hearts of all of the
home-scurrying salons was a determina
tion to make the last use of their free
transportation. But the ticket-taker on
the train had been "wised up." Special
order No. 23-4-11-44 bad been carefully
scanned by the conductor. He had been
warned that upon a certain Saturday
evening, numerous persons having the
suspicious appearance of having been
guilty of voting for a railroad commission
bill, would board his train at or near
Salem. The order read to wink the other
eye when passes were offered and to give
the retort scornful. "Come on. Go south
and dig -deep into the nether tic and let
me see the color of the coin paid by the
State of Oregon."
Did Senator Dan J. Malarkey pay $1.65
for his train fare to Portland Not so
any one could notice it. Did Representa
tive Willard H. Cliapin. father of the bill
that laid the free passes as cold and dead
as Hamlet's ghost, pay $1.65. No. Neither
did Representative John B. Coffey, Rep
lesentatlve L. H. Adams. Senator Sig.
Sichel and the rest of the Multnomah
delegation and the rest of the home
going lawmakers pay $1.65. Not on your
life.
Beating Tall End of Fare.
When the haughty conductor came
round, when the passes were offered and
were waved, aside as so much contam
inated pasteboard, some thrifty member
of the Multnomah delegation suddenly
had a happy thought. It was 3G miles to
Portland and it was only 43 miles to Ore
gon city. At the rate of 3 cents a mile
it -was ?1.6o to Portland. Forty-three
miles to Oregon City. With paper and
pencil, both bearing suspicious marks of
having been once in the august hall of
either the Senate or House, this wise
legislator began making queer marks and
crosses on the paper. Suddenly h yelled
with delight. The 3 cents a mile did not
operate between Oregon City and home.
Electric cars and boats made it a flat
rate of 25 cents. Great joy. The man
had worked out the knotty problem.
"Pay your fare only to Oregon City," he
cried, and the day was saved. The
marks and crosses showed "the man"
that it would only cost $1.29 to Oregon
City, another S'5 cents to Portland. See
the answer? Just 11 cents saved.
"Con" Returns J."o Pennies.
And now it was up to the conductor.
He knew that none of-the card-bearers
wanted to be deposited at Oregon City,
for hadn't they just left Salem, but he
could not refuse their money. He might
have had an idea that some of It at least
was tainted, but it was not for him to
say. But he got back. The "Sou. PaC."
does not provide its hired hands with
pennies, so instead of paying over $1.29,
it cost the law-makers $1.20. At that the
large number of people,, who might, had
they wanted to. have increased the pop
ulation of Oregon City, but did not. saved
10 cents, enough to buy a pair of beers
or something else.
The whole thing was treated as a. ink
by the former pass-owners. When one
man handed his pass and it was refused,
it did not stop the rest, and as the con
ductor passed down the aisles he was
offered a pass from each member. Yes,
it was a joke, all right.
GOOD COCGH MEDICINE FOR CHILDREN
The season for coughs and colds is now
at hand and too much care cannot be
used to protect the children. A child ia
much more likely to contract diphtheria
or scarlet fever when he has a cold. The
quicker you cure his cold the less the
risk. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy is
the sole reliance of many mothers, and
few of them who have tried it are willing
to use any other. Mrs. F. F. Starcher of
Ripley, W. Va., says, "I have never used

Remedy for mv children and It hn al

Mrs. Kly.
After several days of close auestion
!ng in jail. Al Meyer, an lS-year-old
wrapping; clerk employed at the Meier
& Frank Company's store, broke down
yesterday and confessed to stealing a
jewel case and contents belonging to
Mr. and Mrs. Ben C. Ely, who have
apartments at the Hotel Carlton, where
youngr Meyer also roomed.
Upon arrest Meyer strenuously de
nied having stolen the Ely valuables
and steadfastly maintained that he had
found the case in a vacant room". His
story sounded bad, but as the officers
were unable to find anything incrim
inating, it is probable he would have
been released had not Mrs. Ely signed
a complaint.
The jewelry, which consisted princi
pally of heirlooms of the Ely family,
was stolen February 12, but was. not
missed until next day, when Mrs. Eiy
reported the matter to a detective
agency in hope of recovering the miss
ing: articles and avoiding police notori
ety. One week after the theft they called
upon the regular police. They arrested
Meyer; who said lie had found the
Jewels in a vacant room at the hotel,
and that the case contained only a ring
shaped like a serpent. This he said he
threw into the river at the instance of
:i friend of his named Martin, who is
employed at the Feldcniielmer jewelry
store, and whom Meyer claimed told
him that the ring was worthless, which
is the reason he assigned for throwing
it away. Mrs. Ely said she. was positive
Meyer knew more of the case tnan he
would admit, basing her suspicions on
the fact that Meyer nad acted in the
capacity of bellboy on the day the rob
bery was committed, and through that
means had access to all the rooms In
the building. She further stated that
when he returned the jewels he told
her conflicting stories, on the strength
of which evidence she swore to the
complaint.
Yesterday when Detective Sergeant
Jonc3 and Acting Detective Tichenor
were holding a consultation with Meyer
in the County Jail he confessed to hav
ing stolen the jewels from the Ely
npartments while they were out. He
told hew he took the jewels to the Morrison-street
bridge after the loss had
been discovered and detectives em
ployed to recover them, and, in fear of
being found out. threw them into the
river. After this he imagined he was
safe, but made the fatal mistake of vis
iting Mrfc. Ely to return the box in
which the heirlooms had been con
tained. From the first, the officers have
scouted young Martin's connection with
the case, and the confession of Meyer
exonerates him entirely. Meyer is be
lieved to have participated in other
robberies that have occurred at the
Carlton, and an effort will be made
to have him acknowledge these.
RESCUE WORK COMPLETED
Lifeboat Crew Saves Lat Three Wo
men on Wrecked Berlin.
HOOK OF HOLLAND, Feb. 23. In the
early hours of the morning the three re
maining sun-Ivors were taken off the
wreck of the British steamer Berlin by
the same lifeboat crew which has done
such splendid work during the last 60
hours. All three are women Frau Weint
berger, her 16-year-old nurse girl, Mina
Ripler, and Fraulein Theile.
This makes the number of saved 15 out
of the 141 who were on board.
The lifesavers watched the wreck all
night for a chance to get alongside, but
had to wait until low .water, when they
put off on a tug which had a raft in tow
for the use of tho rescuers. On getting
as near the wreck as possible. Captain
Sperling, of the lifeboat crew, boarded
the raft, which was allowed to drift
alongside the Berlin, and the captain
managed to get on board by means of a
line. He lowered the helpless women to
the raft, whence they were conveyed to
the lifeboat. The last survivors arrived
at the Hook of Holland at 3 o'clock this
morning.
The 22 bodies recovered this morning
from below the deck of the Berlin and
landed here are believed to constitute all
the bodies on the hulk.
Captain Sperling, who went out to the
Berlin and rescued the last three sur
vivors, spoke modestly ot his exploit. He
said:
"We took the raft alongside the beacon
light and succeeded in reaching the break
water and moored the raft. From the
breakwater we climbed on board the rem
nant of the Berlin and found the three
women huddled under the hurricane
deck, stirrounded by a dozen corpses.
The women were in a pitiable plight,
screaming and crying hysterically as they
clung to us. They were famished and stiff
with cold; their clothing was soaked with
icy water, and they were unable to walk.
The nurse, Fraulein Rlpier, insisted that
her companions should be first saved, so
I carried Fraulein Theile to the side, as
sisted her into a rope cradle and lowered
her upon the raft. Fran Welnlberger
was next taken off. She was in a pitiful
state of distress, weeping for her husband
and child, who were drowned. Finally
Fraulein Ripler was placed upon the raft,
which was hauled alongside the Wodan.

Whenever a sore refuses to heal it is because the blood is" not "pure and
healthy, as it should be, but is infected with poisonous germs or some old
blood taint which has corrupted and polluted the circulation. Those most
usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed raid
die life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally
begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because
of a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint
which has hitherto been held in check, now force an outlet on the face, arms,
legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and
eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes a chronic and stubborn,
nleer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated.
Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore.
The very fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments is good reason
for suspicion; the same germ-producing cancerous ulcers is back of every
eld sore, and especially i3 this true if the trouble i3 an inherited one.
Washes, salves, nor indeed anything else, applied directly to the sore, can
do any permanent good ; neither will remov

surgeon's knife make a lasting cure. If

Hundreds of thousands of dollars have been made
in Portland real estate in the last few months, but
this money has largely been made by wealthy men.
But it is little satisfaction for the poor man to read
about money being made in real estate if he can't get
hold of a little of it for himself.
We have a real estate proposition so full of merit
we want the man in ordinary circumstances to inves

property.
Here's something to think about: A desirable
propert splendidly located, convenient to three
streetcar lines, close to industrial interests, close to
neighbors, close to schools, close to churches, aud
withal a proposition easily within the reach of any
body, drawing a fifty-dollar salary, is a property not
found on every corner. It's worth looking into.
We have studied the lot question of the city care
fully, and considering the -advantages this property
