ARRESTED AFTER ELOPING Marlon En-ell and XelUe Johnson Walk Eight Miles, Walt All Night for Train, and Then They Are Captured. Determined to elope and be married, Marion Ewell, aged 23 years, and Miss Nellie Johnson, aged 18 years, stole away together from the home of Mrs. Mary Robinson, at North Yamhill. Friday ntgni and walked to Gaston, a distance of eight miles. It was nearly 3 A. M. when the pair, tired and footsore, brought up at the public schoolhouse at Gaston. They took up a position on the steps of the institution of learning, and talked over their plans until daybreak, when they kept out of the way as mucn as posuioio until the arrival of the Portland-bound Southern Pacific train. They boarded It and came to this city, where it was pur nosed they would seek a minister and have him marry them. One thing, how- th-v fnnot the police. Just as tliov stermed from the passenger coach at Fourth and Stark streets, an officer stepped up and tapped young tweu on ino shoulder. Mr. Kwelir asked the officer. The same, sir," replied the bridegroom- "I have a warrant here for your arrest for kidnaping; be so kind as to accom pany me to the police station, pending the Investigation of your case" said the offi cer, in a polite tone.i ii.ri to do so. sir." replied Mr. Ewell. and off to the station-house went they. Then the humiliating part of the whole game happened. Mrs. Robinson, who was left at the North Yamhill home milking the family cow when her young uiu helper marched away with her lover un der the protecting shades of night, had quickly surmised what was doing, and had caused the police here to be notified. Bhe described the pair, and they were easily picked up. Well, it was a bad state of affairs for the lovers. They were obliged to remain at police headquarters, under the care of the genial Captain Bailey, until the arri val of Mrs. Robinson. When she reached the scene, she speedily unwound all of the Diana that had been made by the young sters. and handed out some spicy advice to the humbled Mr. Ewell. It ended by Mrs. Robinson taking Miss Johnson, who is to be sent to a sisters' home at Cottage Grove. -They think they're pretty fresh." said roung Mr. Ewell. "but say. Just wait till get through with that old busy-body- Mrs. Robinson; if I don t fool her. I m a dead one. The girl and I had it all fixed up that, if we are parted by the in terference of this woman, who worked the life out of Nell, we will meet tomorrow at Cottage Grove and get married. Why not? She's old enough. I'm old enough, and what's to stop us? We will get mar ried In spite of all they can do." And Mr. Ewell. of North Yamhill, threw out his chest, and said he'd go and eat, having had nothing in the bread line since leaving the Robinson home Friday night. And as for Miss Nellie, she was humbly escorted to the depot by Mrs. Robinson, and the two were passengers , when the south-bound train pulled out. JEWS IN NEW YORK A Blunder Commlted by Police Com missioner Bingham Retracted. An error gross in itself and unjust in its inferences and consequences was made by Police Commissioner Bingham, of New York, recently. In an article pub lished In the North American Review, which gave, or purported to give, crim inal statistics of the city of New York, he said that, "under existing conditions it was not astonishing that with a mil lion Hebrews, mostly Russian, in the city (one-fourth of the population), per haps half of the criminals should be of that race." In a letter to the New York Sun. he admits he was mistaken. The statistics used by htm were compiled by others, and he used them without taking care for tlieir verification. He says they appear to have been founded "on the percentage of Jewish boys In the House of Refuge." But even this, he says, is "misleading." Here is his explanation In detail: The figures used in the article were not compiled by myself, but were fur nisheo. me by others and were unfor tunately assumed to be correct. It now appears, however, that these figures were unreliable. Hence it becomes my duty frankly to say so and repudiate them. ' The idea which 1 sought to impress was that tho number of foreigners with whom the police come in contact is very large, and that a special knowl edge of racial customs and manners is essential to the attainment of the best results by the police In the investiga tions of crimes committed by and against those of foreign origin. The percentage given of Jewish boys in the House of Refuge is. It appears, also misleading. This proportion of boys, it is now pointed out. should be con sidered not solely in relation to the total number of boys in the House of Refuge, but with reference to the to tal number of boys in all similar in stitutions where boys of this age, and of other races and faiths, are sent. The proportion of Jewish boys consid ered in relation to the inmates of other like institutions would be, of course, radically different. In view of all this and of the fact that many estimable citizens feel hurt by what I wrote without the slightest malice, prejudice or unfriendliness, for I have none, I withdraw the state ments challenged frankly and without reserve. I shall look forward with in terest to the result of the research of the committee of representative cltl xens which is now engaged in making an accurate and exhaustive study of this whole question and shall be glad to meet them. FIRE DESTROYS CHURCHES Three Houses of Worship Go Up in Flames. FOND DU LAC, Wis., Sept. 26. The de struction by fire of three of the principal churches, an automobile garage and -seven automobiles and the residence of former Mayor Mayham, entailed a loss early to day estimated at $250,000, partially cov ered by Insurance. Among tee principal losses are: St. Joseph's Catholic Church and par sonage, 1100,000; Congregational Church, $75,000; Crescent Garage and seven auto mobiles. $35,000. The fire Is said to have started from an explosion of gasoline in the Crescent gar age. That building with its valuable con tents was soon licked up and with the aid of a high wlnti the flames also commu nicated to the church property in that vi cinity. Firebrands from the burning churches were blown over an area of 10 blocks, spreading fires to roofs of many residences. LOVED AVON'S BARD Bismarck Great Admirer of the Master of Drama.

BERLIN, Sept. 26. (Special.) A work of great Interest has appeared here un der the title, "Bismarck and, Shakes peare," and reveals a perhaps hitherto unsuspected ' admiration on the part of the "Man of Blood and Iron" for the most poetic of all poets. The author's name Is Arthur Bothling. Evert as a student at Gottlngen, Bis marck is found writing enthusiastically of "old Shakespeare"- and "my Shakes peare," and requesting an English friend to send' him. without delay, the English version of "Hamlet" and "Richard III." Later on, as a country gentleman In Pomerania. Bismarck and his young wife got up Shakespeare parties, in the dis cussion at which both took an active and intelligent part.: Often in the course of his political career he referred in his dispatches to his intimates for purposes of secrecy to well-known contemporaries by such names as "Falstaff," "Romeo," "Trlnculo" or "Fortlnbras." In one of his public speeches he com pared Napoleon III to Hamlet no inapt comparison, as some, at least, may think; and since Bismarck's time no quotation is commoner in German books and ad dresses and conversation than "To be or not to be." He was fond, too, of con structing a Shakespearean scene. After the treaty tf Gastein had brought Lauenburg and Kiel and Schleswlg Into Prussian possession, he suggested to Gen eral Manteuffel as they went to meet King WUhelm that they should greet him as the witches did Macbeth, somewhat as follows: "Hall! Thane of Lauenburg! Hall! Thane of. Kiel! Hail! Thane of Schleswig!" History omits to say if the suggestion was carried out. As he grew old and his political star was declining, he often had the names of Lear and Cor Inlanus on his 3Ips, until at the last his SINCE 1842 . tnl PlA-H'QS Have always ranked asone of the world's best makes.

Our 30 years ' experience as stove deal ers convinces us that the Monarch is the one and only range that would justify such a claim. "We want to demonstrate ' it to every intending range buyer. - ' Fuel,' time and labor represent reaL money and the Monarch Range, will save ''a considerable per centage of all three. This we can prove conclusively by the. con struction of the range and by the testimony of hundreds of Monarch owners in Portland. Actual figures show that the saving in the first year or two of the range's use is sufficient to repay its entire first cost. This, without even considering the delight that a woman experiences in using a range that Ah .WAYS does its work WELL. The value of such satisfaction is infinite. It can scarcely be estimated in dollars and cents. Y saving one quarter of the time usually spent m the kitchen BY eternally doing away with nearly ALL of the disagreeable labor necessary to keep the common range halfway presentable. FUEL If Monarch Ranges were made like other ranges it would be ridiculous to claim a 1-3 fuel saving. But they aren't. Even the material is different. ,Made of malleable iron and rivets instead of brittle cast iron, bolts and stove putty, the Monarch gives for years and years good economical service that cannot even be expected of common leaky" steel Ranges. TIME Much of the time spent in kitchen work is WASTED waiting for the top to get hot in the morning, or the oven to get up to baking heat. The Monarch air-tight malleable construction saves this time. A piping hot fire in five minutes after opening the drafts is the regular thing. LABOR Stop blacking the range top! Nevermore touch the body of your range with paint 1 Give up scraping and scouring dirty black kettle bottoms.. These things aren't neces sary in a "Monarch" kitchen. The Monarch doesn't need such care, but still it's the constant pride of a housewife. - It's so spot lessly clean and shiny.
