WILL REVEALS IDENTITY Slissourian Poses as "Frank T. Mitch-ell," s St. Paul Clubman. ST. PAUL, Minn, April 8. A fortune that staireered the onlookers greeted the eyes of a number of court officials when they opened a vault In a. safe deposit bank at St. Paul, looking for the effects of the late "Frank T. Mitch- ell," of St. Paul. Mitchell, as he was known, was a prominent clubman. In addition to Sag, 000, the vault held scores of diamonds and bundles of stocks and bonds. The money by the dates on the bundles had been deposited during the past year. Further investi Katlon. revealed a. will. In which the man said that he came here "broke and that his right name was John San tens. Kdina, Mo. Meta Tezer Mitchell, widow, is dying I a. brain disease in a St. Paul hospital Relatives will dispute Mitchell's will, which leaves one-fourth of his property to his wife. He admits in his will that lie had taken all of the money from her estate, valued at S700.000. Mitchell came to St. Paul several years ago and po&el as a well-to-lo promoter and speculator, soon after meeting Meta Tezer, whose estimated wealth was over J 1,000,000, and marry lng her. Relatives have stated that they will fight for all of the fortune lefj.,by the man on the grounds that the wife was not responsible when she gave him control of her estate. MORE APPROACHES URGED East Side Club Favors Plan for Three Interstate Bridge Roads. A resolution was adopted at th meeting of the Greater East Side Club Friday nipht that the county be asked to appropriate money to build ap proaches to the interstate bridge on Vancouver, Patton and Derby avenues in addition to the Union-avenue ap proach. It was set forth that the prop erty owners on the Base Line, Foster and other roads are opposing hard sur facing at this time and that the money will be available from the county funds to build these additional ap proaches. It is further suggested that the county might temporarily abandon the hard-surfacing of the county roads where the owners oppose the improve ments. A. M. Humphrey, of the Montavllla Board of Trade, opposed the resolution and declared its adoption unwise, but It carried. The resolution will be pre sented to the mass meeting to be held In North Portland tonight. Strlklne Costume Is Attire. CHICAGO, April 7 So curious were the Chicagoans to see the fair police women who sometime ago began doing police duty In this big metropolis, that it was necessary in several cases to call on "plain clothes men" and even uniform male patrolmen to extricate the women from the crowds. The photograph, show ing the uniform tentatively adopted, gives one an idea of how the. women "bluecoats' appear when garbed in their finery. It sh rather a stunning creation, and, while it shows that it is a police uniform, still it retains many feminine characteristics. true name Is Harriet Williams, indicted for obtaining and attempting to at tain money by false pretenses have pleaded guilty. Carl and his wife were arrested at Ixs Angeles following the passing of alleged worthless checks to the amount of S600 or more at half a dozen local stores by a woman who s said: to have changed her attire in a taxlcab while going from one store to another. TWO WIVES ARE TOO MANY Man Tries to Be Faithful to Both and Gets Before Jury. CHICAGO. April 9. If - Peter Brown had not left Mrs. Elizabeth Grossle, of 3435 West Thirty-fourth place who thought she was Mrs. Brown and. gone back to see the first Mrs. Brown in De troit, he might still be at large. H told Judge Uhlir he thought the first Mrs. Brown had won a divorce. "Then why did you go back to her?" the court demanded. "I wanted to be faithful to both said Brown feebly. He was held to the grand Jury. . Spalding Building Has Blaze. ' Spontaneous combustion is thought to have been the origin of a minor basement fire at 10 o'clock last night in the Spalding' building. Third " and Washington streets. The blaze was confined to a pile of sacks and rubbish without causing any damage. Fire of unlearned origin caused a loss of about $1000 late last night in a house at 655 East Sixty-eighth street. North, ten anted by J. Learance and owned by the McL,ain estate. BT RAUril J. STAEHU. All distances with the exception of the 50-yard, and a new Northwest record In the 100-yard was the glory which Norman Ross chopped off for himself in Northwest Amateur Asso- latlon tank championships at Mult pmah Club Friday night. Ross won the 100-yard in 1:01, six econds better than the mark with which Goetz, of Spokane, won it last year. The Multnomah star also won the 220-yard and the 600. both In good time, though not record. John McMurray has shortened his distance to the 50-yard and that he won without opposition In 28 seconds and a fifth. Fancy Dlvtna- Stasjed. The plunge for distance went to Ro- sengreen, of the Portland Association. The big. heavy swimmer went a dis tance of 37 feet and was under the surface 34 seconds. Clair Tait, one of Jack iCody's stel- ar pupils, won the fancy diving with out a shadow of a doubt, and second went to Rosengreen. after a delibera tion on the part of tbe judges in which the name of Spamer figured. It was a big event in amateur cir cles, both in number of entries and the class of men entered. It showed, how ever, that a limited few are pre-em- nently the stars of the swimming field about Portland. The meet brought out no new men. with the exception of the distance plunge champion. Ross and McMurray have been winning events for the past three years. McMurray's showing in the 100-yard race might be attributed to the short but gruelling pace of the oO-yard race which he had won a few minutes previous to swimming In the 100-yard. Ross Is Great Type. But Rosa is undoubtedly the srreatest sprint swimmer tfte Northwest ever knew and is approaching the style of the Pacific Coast champions in the South. His mark Is still- a few sec onds shy of the Coast records. He lay down that easy stroke of his and torpedoed through the water for a ma terial gain on the first lap. The turns are his forte and it ceased to be a race by several yards long ere the goal was reached. The 600-yard race was another easy event for the champion. It was hardly expected that he would have such an easy time of it. but before the race was half run he had put half a lap between himself and Wheeler, the next man. When the race finished Ross was a full lap ahead, with 'Vickers second and Wheeler third. The diving was a high-class exhibi tion. Tait is something entirely orig inal in his control of the body in mid air. His dives were all clean as a knife- cut. "Swat the fly," his own dive, con sisting of a flip and two twists, was an evolution never seen before. Spamer and Rosengreen. for second place, were a tight couple. Rosen green, despite his weight, made some what the cleaner dives. Spamer's feet were just enough to the side or the front to cause more splash than the heavy man. Louis Balback's showing was good. Balback has been on the sick list and got out of bed at 6 o'clock to enter the meet. Bis; Crowd Drawn, A big crowd packed the tankrooxn The entries were so numerous that four heats had to be run In the 60-yard and three in the 100.

I.yn Sending; ot Protest Telegram to Res-. C. T. WMsoa TJnlawfal, Candidate for uovrraer Asserts. In a formal statement issued Friday night, John Manning, candidate for the Democratic nomination for Governor, charged that members of the Methodist Preachers' Association, in sending a telegram to the Rev. Clarence True Wilson, protesting auatnst a letter of Indorsement of Mr. Manning purported to have been written by Mr. Wilson, violated the corrupt practices act. Mr. Manning asserted that If any man or set of men violated any of the pro visions of the law in attempting to de feat him for the nomination, he would prosecute them. Tbe telegram was sent by a commit tee from the Preachers' Association composed of Rev. Delmer II. Trimble, chairman: Kev. C. C Parick. and Rev. W. H. Fry. Rev. Mr. Wilson, in his answer to the telegram, as explained by members of this conimitteo, said that he had not intended to indorse Mr. Manning for campaign purposes, that his letter was a private one in response to a personal inquiry and that in circulating it. Im proper use had been made of private correspondence. "By way of advice to the Methodist Preachers' Association," said Mr. Man ning in his statement, "I desire to call Make Life a Little Easier for tbe sick, convalescent, deformed, or defective.
