ESCAPE Of GERMAN
IN BOX FRUSTRATED
Huge Packing Case Found to
Contain Navy Lieutenant in
: Semi-Conscious State.
PROTRUDING ARM BETRAYS
British Officials Nearly - Outwitted
by Ingenious Ruse Adopted by
Alien Prisoner to Get
T Out of Country,
LONDON, Dec 13. A German army
officer whom . a custom official at
Graveaend Saturday found concealed in
a huge box which was- about to be
shipped "to Rotterdam told an alien
emigration officer that his name waa
Otto Koehn and that he was a Lieuten
ant in the German navy, according to
a dispatch from Gravesend to Lloyds'
Ktwa
The Lieutenant said he had been In
America recently, continues the mes
sage, and returned aboard the steam
ship Otsdam shortly before the out
break of the war.
Subsequently he was arrested In
Southampton and interned In the camp
of aliens at Dorchester.
Box Fraud Anions lURgajce.
The box In which the officer waa
found was among the luggage of some
elderly aliens who were being sent
.from the camp at Dorchester to Ger
many. On arriving at Tilbury from
Dorchester they were transferred to a
ferryboat for Gravesend, where they
boarded the steamer I3atavier, bound
for Rotterdam. Porters handling the
baggage found beneath the pile of
packages a huge packing case on which
were stenciled the words, "Non-poisonous
safety matches."
The case was so heavy that the port
ers had to roll it over and over on the
dock to the rails separating it from
tbe Batavier. The bumping of the box
apparently stunned the occupant and
forced the lid of the case partly open,
causing an arm to protrude.
Preparations for Comfort Made
This was noticed by a Dutch seaman,
who called the attention of the ferry
boat skipper to it. An armed guard in
charge of those being deported was
called and. found the man in the box in
a semi-conscious state.
It Is believed, concludes the dispatch,
that the men in the Dorchester camp,
when they learned that several men
above military age were to be sent to
Germany, plotted to hide Koehn in a
packing case which had contained
Swedisa matches. Although Koehn,
who was taken to & police station, de
clared that nobody assisted him, elab
orate preparations had been made for
Jils comfort. Arm rests, an air cushion,
t bottle of cocoa and bananas were
Among the things provided for him.
Police and Military Mystified.
The Dorchester correspondent of
I.loydg "News sends the following dis
patch concerning 'the affair:
"The railway authorities here dis
claim all knowledge of a box answer
ing the description of that found at
Gravesend, nor are the police and mili
tary authorities cognizant of the es
cape of a prisoner from the. Dorchester
camp, where the rollcall is called thrice
daily. There have been considerable
movements of the prisoners during the
last few days, however, and it is possi
ble that the man captured at Graves
' end contrived to escape during these
operations."

BERLIN, Dec. 12 r(By wireless to
London.) The German official state

"In the east the Russian forces were

Accidental ringing of the burglar
alarm of the Jewelry store of A. & C.
Veldenbeimer at Park and Washington

squads of policemen to the scene.

door had been left unlocked and the
Jilght watchman, in closing the door,
touched the mechanism that notified

IZED, IN STYLE AGAIN.
Colon Will Be Subdued, With White
Predominating and Stripes Will Be
Better Form Than Checks.
CHICAGO, Dec. 12. New materials
for women's early Spring clothes are
decidedly like those of grandmother's
day, according to the bulletin of the
Fashion Art League of America issued
here today. Frills and furbelows of
1830 are to be worn more and more.
Materials consist of narrow-strlDes
with a taffeta tinish. Silk in Domua-
dour, small plaids and checks are the
best of these. Many crepes and veil
ings already are being shown with a
small dresden flower pattern which
wag revived a year ago. Cashmeres
and satin cloths will be among the
materials for street wear.
Colors will be subdued, with a pre
valence of black and white, white pre
dominating. Knects in stripes will be
better form than checks or plaids,
being smarter and more suitable to
the new silhouette.
While the trend of styles is and for
some time has been toward the 1S30
period, our 1915 mode of living de
mands a distinctly modern adaptation.

SELLING, SURE OF
, IS AT
Speaker-to-Be Writes to Con
freres to Learn Their
Committee Leanings.
ECONOMY RULE POPULAR
Legislators in Favor of Laws
Enforcing Dry Amendment.
House Rule Changes Like
ly to Be Recommended.
Now that his election as Speaker of
the lower house of the Legislature
seems assured, Ben Selling, of Portland,
is considering his committee appoint
ments and is preparing to dispose of
all the preliminaries so that the House
can get down to business Immediately
after the Legislature convenes. So far
as the Speakership contest itself is
concerned, It virtually , is settled. Mr.
Selling' feels certain of election on the
first ballot.
"I have 36 votes pledged In writing,"
said Mr. Selling last night. "I have
these promises either by letter or tele
gram, and am sure that the members
who have made the promises will stay
with me until I am elected. This num
ber includes, of course, the 12 members
from Multnomah County.
"Besides the members already pledged
I also have reason to believe that four
additional members will vote for me.
Several others now classed as doubtful.
I believe, will be with us when. It comes
time to vote."
Committee Work la Begun.
Mr. Selling began yesterday address
ing letters to members of the Legisla
ture asking them to indicate their
preferences for committee places. He
will write to everyone of the 59 other
members of the House, regardless of
whether they are pledged to support
him. He declared that he wants to ar
range his committees so that they will
be able to work for efficiency in legis
lation. "I hope to have all my committeeships
arranged before the Legislature con
venes, said Mr. Selling. I shall be
prepared to announce the appointments
right after the Legislature organizes.
In that way we won't lose any time in
preliminary organization. I want the
House to get down to business on the
opening day."
feince it became known that Mr. Sell
ing will be elected Speaker, be has re
ceived many communications from
members of the House in various parts
of the state. The tone of the letters
he has received indicates that the mem
bership almost universally is in favor
of an economical programme. Economy
seems - to be the predominating senti
ment in nearly every district of the
state.
Dry Enforcement Favored.
The same set of letters also show
conclusively that the Representatives
are emphatically in favor of legislat
ing In favor of the prohibition law en
forcement. All members, who have ex
pressed themselves at all on this sub
ject, have declared in favor of a law
that will make the amendment adopted
by tbe people effective.
Mr. Selling will proceed with his com
mittee appointments under the rules of
the 1813 Legislature, when there were
42 standing committees in the House.
He will fill all these committees pend
ing action by the House itself in In
creasing or reducing the number of
committees.
A careful study of the rules also Is
receiving attention from the Speaker-to-be
and it is possible that a number
of changes will be recommended. This
s true particularly with reference to
the procedure on appropriation bills.
There has been a general demand
among members of both bouses to re
quire that all appropriation bills be
reported out of committees earlier in
the session. Under the old system many
such bills are brought on to tbe floor
In the closing hours of the session and
rushed through. Sometimes they carry
items that could Just as well be ex
cluded. A change that will allow the
full Legislature more time for consid
eration, it is pointed out, is in 'keeping
with the general economy programme.
Allen Eaton, of Eugene, who has
been a candidate for the Speakership,
arrived in Portland again yesterday.
He is continuing his campaign. He
has a considerable number of members
pledged to his support, but admits that
he has not enough to elect him. He
probably will persist in his candidacy
on the floor of the House.
Residents of Malheur County proba
bly will ask the Legislature for a re
districting law that will give 'them
more representation. Under the pres
ent law Malheur is without a member
in either house.
Malheur County, with Grant and
Harney counties, is in the Twenty-second
Senatorial District. It is repre
sented by Senator Loring V. Stewart,
who lives at Dayville, Grant County.
Malheur and Harney counties comprise
the Twenty-seventh Representative
District, which is represented in the
lower house by Frank Davey, of Burns,
Harney County.
Malheur is a populous county and
Its residents say they are entitled to a
Representative of their own. It is prob
able that a redisricting bill with this
end In view will be introduced early
in the session.
One of the plans recently suggested
to the committee of the Multnomah
County delegation dealing with Mult
nomah County affairs Is introduction of
a bill providing for the abolition of the
office of County Auditor In Multnomah
County. It is pointed out that the
work of this office can be performed
by some other branch of the county
government and the expense spared to
the taxpayers.
The Republican County Central Com
mittee is preparing to recommend to
the Multnomah County delegation a
number of candidates for clerkships in
both the House and the Senate, accord
ing to current reports.
Members of the Legislature declare
that this is an unusual procedure. Ap
pointment of clerkships is a detail of
organization that heretofore has been
Bettled largely among the legislators
themselves.
It is reported that If the Multnomah
County Committee makes recommen
dations each of the 33 other counties
in the state will present the names of
favorite sons for concurrent considera
tion. MANDARIN FEAST IS SET

H. S. STEPHENSON PASSES
PIONEER, WHO CROSSED PLAINS IN
1858, WELL KNOWN.
Funeral Services Will Be Held at Fin
ley's Undertaking Establish
ment Today.
Henry S. Stephenson, a pioneer resi
dent of Oregon who crossed the plains
in the early '50s, died at his home
south of Portland Thursday afternoon
after a brief illness.
Mr. Stephenson was 76 years of age
and known to nearly ail the pioneers in
this part of the state. He was a brother
of the late Robert E. and William Ste
phenson and an uncle of George K. and
Henry L. btephenson, well-known hay
and feed dealers.
Mr. Stephenson was born in Parkers
burg, W. Va, November 17, 1838. and
together with his parents, two broth
ers and two sisters, left -there by the
Ohio River ferry in the Sprlngvof 1858
for the "Great West." One brother,
Edward, remained at home.
The father, John Stephenson, who af
terward became a prominent resident
of this part of Oregon, had charge of
the wagon train across the continent.
On the road across the plains the
party was joined by H. L. Pittock and
others on their way to Oregon, and the
remainder of tbe trip was made by thtm
together. Mr. Pittock and Mr. Ste
phenson always remained close friends.
Upon arriving in the Valley of the
Willamette in the Fall of 1853 John
Stephenson took up a donation land
claim about six miles south of the pres
ent City of Portland. The property
now is owned by Dr. A S. Nichols. Th
family lived on the farm, and contact
with Indians was not an infrequent
occurrence.
One of the Stephenson sisters died
on the transcontinental journey and
was buried in Utah. The other sister
afterward became Ms. Elizabeth A
Clark and was familiarly known in the
countryside as "Aunt Betty."
After the death of his father Henry
Stephenson moved to Portland and
lived here for many years. Later, how
ever, he returned to the farm, alter
nating his residence between various
members of the family. He never was
married. He was active in various pur
suits and always furnished a guiding
hand for his relatives and was a con
genial companion for his numerous
friends.
Mr. Stephenson was one of tbe early
members of the volunteer fire depart
mnt in Portland and for several years
was the foreman of Company No. 5. For
a long while he was a member of the
Volunteer Firemen's Relief Associa
tion. While living in Portland he had
his residence a greater part of the
time at Third and College streets.
Robert E. Stephenson, his last sur
viving brother, died in 1903. He was
the father of George K. and Henry L.
Stephenson.
With the death of Henry s. stepnen-
son the last member of his generation
passes away. .
The brother wno remained in rara-
ersburg never saw the other members
of his family again. He was married,
however, and had a large family of
children. A few years ago one of
them, Thomas, came to Portland. He,
with his family, now live at East
Thirty-fourth and Division streets.
Funeral services will be held at z:30
this afternoon from Finley's undertak
ing establishment. Fifth and Montgom
ery streets. All friends of Mr. Ste
phenson, especially members of the old
fire departments, have been invited to
attend.

"I was In a most distressing? con

"I was glad Indeed to find that the

a gradual increase of appetite and
strength.
"Three months after I first began
using it I was a well man, and all the

it to all who are in need of a medicine

' IX BAND LEADING PARADE.
Twenty-Seven Taxi cab, Each Labeled
With Name of Occupant In Cortege of
Whle 9Tew, Pioneer Merchant.
Led by a band composed of American
born Chinese playing: standard dirges
and followed by 27 taxicabs occupied
by his countrymen, the body of White
New, a Chinese merchant at 95 Second
street, was solemnly paraded through
the downtown streets yesterday before
interment at Lone Fir Cemetery.
The procession started at Third and
Salmon streets. Marching down Third
street to Pine, it doubled back on Sec
ond street to the Morrison-street bridge,
over which it crossed to the cemetery.
A dozen Chinese walked bareheaded
beside the hearse. In the 27 taxicabs
that followed were repreesntatlves of
Chinese societies and members of fam
ilies of friends of Whie New. On the
window of each cab was a sentence in
Chinese telling who the occupants, were
and whom they represented. One cab
was empty, but kept its place in line
with its lessee's name on the window.
The New Era Chinese band was the
one which led the procession. Another
band, typically Chinese, joined in the
services at the grave. In the Chinese
section of Lone Fir Cemetery the usual
Oriental funeral ceremonies were held.
The body was taken to the altar, where
joss sticks and candles were burned
to propitiate evil spirits. One hundred
and fifty Chinese participated in tbe
services.
Whie New was 66 years old. For 35
years he had been a resident of Port
land, but he had no relatives in the city.
He was a member of the Huie in Kong
Show Society, under the auspices of
which the funeral was held.
Great Guns Come West.
HAMMOND, Ind., Dec. 12. (Special.)
Snouts of monster cannon stuck out
over the city of Hammond today, when
a trainload of big guns went through
over the Grand Trunk Railway. They
are billed for Vancouver, B. C, but be
yond the destination is unknown.
The guns are more than 30 feet long.
The train was made up of gondola cars,
each of which carried one gun. . They
were manufactured in Pennsylvania,
presumably at the Bethlehem plant, as
they were brought In from the Lehigh

Mr. J. B. Reese, Habnab, Maryland,
writes: "Two years ago I became a
sufferer with catarrh, which continued
to grow worse and made me miserable.
I could scarcely smell at all, and my
taste had almost left me. My head
ached constantly, and at times had high :
fever and bleeding at the nose. I was'
a perfect wreck."
"I tried several doctors, but derived
no relief. I read In one of your little
booklets, called 'Ills of Life,' of Peruna
being a remedy for catarrh, and pro
cured a bottle at once. After the use
of one bottle I felt some better, so I
tried the second and the third, and now
I am a well man. -
"My' health Is much better than it;

Catarrh of the head is tbe same dis-t
esise as catarrh of the stomach. So far
as the nature of the ailment is con-.
cerned. it matters little whether the
catarrh is located in the throat or
bronchial tubes, the treatment is the
same. i
The wonderful success of Perana.
in curing these cases consists mainly
of the fact that it is a natural lnvigor
ant that enables the system to over-!
come the catarrhal condition, which in
many cases is so chronic that it has
become a habit.

Miss' Bertie L. asks: "What remedy
can you recommend to reduce obesity
safely? I want to reduce about thirty
pounds."
Answer: I rely on five-grain arbolone
tablets as being the most effective and
convenient treatment to reduce abnor
mal fat. Druggists supply this in sealed
tubes, with complete directions. After
the first few days a pound a day is not
too much reduction.
Mrs. M. D. D. asks: "'Do you think it
is possible for me to increase my
weight from S7 pounds to about 1-5
pounds?"
Answer: Yes, I believe that the reg
ular use of a special tonic tablet will
do this for you as it has for thou
sands of others. Ask your druggist for
three-grain hypo-nuc-lane tablets in
sealed package, with full directions.
Take them for several months to get
the full benefit.
"Ray" writes: "Can a sufferer from
bronchial trouble be relieved? Doctors
do not seem to help me: what would
you suggest?"
Answer: To cure chronic cold, sore
throat and bronchitis, I would advise
the use of concentrated essence men-tho-laxene.
Purchase this at any drug
store in 2i-oz. packages and mix ac
cording to directions given on bottle
and you will very shortly be relieved
of all bronchial trouble. This will not
only relieve, but will correct, and is
very pleasant to take.
"Sister" asks: "I have a younger sis
ter who is affected with what is termed
green sickness, also catarrh very bad.
She is losing strength and her health
is quite poor. What do you advise?"
Answer: Such cases should adopt
both tonic and local treatment.. For a
tonic and flesh builder have her take
three-grain hypo-nuclane tablets. For
local treatment get either a two or
eight-ounce package of antiseptic
vilane powder and follow carefully the
directions for catarrh of the head and
pelvic catarrh. Great relief and recov
ery should soon be manifested if this
splendid treatment Is followed. Adv.
