But "Bob" Phillips died as he lived KC finished his last detail. But f tf I fighting to the last; asking no quar ter, seeking no advantage. He got me bad, Tom," he whispered. with gasping breath, to Sheriff Hurl burt as his hand groped across the nowy llnan of his death-bed for friendship's parting clasp a moment be fore his eyes closed Into final slumber. It's a hard fight, Tom," he gasped. s a faint flicker of a smile illuminat ed his broad, kindly face, "it's a hard ight for life, but I'm eoinsr to fitrht for it until the end." Such is the passinsr of "Bob" Phil ips, chief field deputy under Sheriff Hurlburt, whose life of usefulness was rought to a sudden termination Wednesday night whenr he was felled. mortally wounded, by the hand of an nsane assassin, Louis Elwyn Hayes. whom he sought to arrest as an escaped patient from the State Insane Asylum. mere is a feeling of desolation up at the Sheriff's office since "Bob" passed on. There's a lumD which arises In very throat of his brother deputies as they gather about the desk that was his and speak only In whispers of the deep sorrow which his death has brought. 'It's a hard game. Sheriff, but I've always tried to do what was right," Bob" whispered to his chief at the hospital Thursday morning as the Death Angel hovered near. "I don't owe anything to. anybody." "Bob" Phillips Fearless. And these parting words, when he knew, that he must soon turn in his star for the last time, characterized the Jife of "Bob" Phillips. It was a hard game, but he played it on the square. Never once had he flinched In the face of duty. Fearless, yet cau- ious, he had faced death a hundred times and not once had he faltered, even to the end. There was a something about "Bob" Phillips that drew men to him. He had a philosophy that none could help but admire: a quaint philosophy teem ing with a dry, quiet humor which quickly won the respect and good will of all who knew him. He knew that he might expect to answer the final call at any time because of the dangers of his calling, but he never complained. His philosophy of life was vividly ex pressed just the day of his death. He was hunting ducks with Deputy Sher iff Rexford, when his unerring aim brought down a bird, almost without a flutter. With a dry laugh he turned to Rex ford: "When I go I hope they get me Just that quick. Rex," he said. Less than three hours later he fell with a fatal bullet wound. And "Bob" Phillips met hla death when he least expected It. Time after time he had searched through the dark hours of the night In search of crim inalsmen whom he knew would shoot to kill if they but had a chance. Time after time his unfailing nerve had won captures which will live long in the criminal annals of the Pacific Coast. But Wednesday night he was shot down bv his insane murderer without being given an even chance to battle for his life. His assassin's shot ran; out even while his hand was upon the doorknob of the room he was entering. And it was the brutal manner of his killing which brings the most poignant pangs of regret to his fellow officers. Shot Without Warning. To think that, after all his years of fearless work as an officer, he should be brought down by an insane man who took him unawares it Is too bad. too bad," they say with one accord. More than a score of times during the present year had he been detailed to arrest insane persons. Records of the Sheirif's office show that a total of 187 insane people have been arrest ed by his deputies during the present year. He had no thought of using his gun -when he went to arrest Hayes last Wednesday night, for he had not been forewarned that his quarry was armed. If he had but known he would hve been alive today, for it is said of "Bob" Phillips that there was no offi cer in this Oregon country quicker with a gun than he The death of "Bob" Phillips recalls to the minds of thousands of people his effective and untiring work in solving the murder mystery known as the Rist man-Jennings case early last year. Mrs. Helen -Jennings, a wealthy widow, and Fred Ristman, a Portland chauffeur, wsre murdered on the old Gore ranch, near Tualatin, May 1 1016. Suspicion was at once attached to Bennett Thompson, a young ex-convict, who had known Mrs. Thompson intimately. From the morning the murder was discovered until a Washington County jury found Thompson guilty of second degree murder, Phillips worked day and night to solve the mysterious mur der. Dressed in the khaki hunting suit v. hlch he always used on such occa sions? he worked day and night In the mountains and hills about Tualatin, seeking and running down every possible clue to the murder. It was ha who found the hidden body of Ristman lying in the brush, rnileg away from the Gore ranch, 10 day later. . It was ho wlia deducted tho value of eacbjauk( ud hi brother officers that his 4' "... V "it 1 ; I jr . i 1 "Dob" PIilIIIpH With Win Pet Wolf aa They Sat for Photographer Two Years Abo.

Captures Are Recalled. Jailers at the County Jail recall how he would return to the city late at night to snatch a few hours of sleep at the Jail. During all those nerve- racking days he would sleep not more than two or three hours a night and would be up before the break of day, ready to renew his search. There are those wno rememDer nis thrilling capture of Jack Roberts in 1911, after Roberts had committed mur der while plying hla work as a high wayman. And his a ork in running down "Sailor" Kemp, who attacked a young married woman at Lents early last year, is also remembered. It was 'Bob Phillips who took up the search the night of the attack and followed Kemp until the latter was surrounded few miles outside of the city ana then turned his gun on himself rather than submit to arrest. It was scarcely a week ago that Phil lip led a posse of Deputy Sheriffs to the woods around Troutdale, where he, himself, recaptured three negroes who had escaped recently from the state prison and who had eluded posse after posse for two weeks. The large scrapbooks on file at the Sheriff's office are teeming with the daring and effective work of "Bob Phillips. Item after item relates of how "Bob" Phillips had done well his duty. 'Twenty minutes after he had held up and robbed Mr. and Mrs. L. F. Steel at the point of a gun, James Partus was arrested last night by Deputy Sheriff "Bob' Phillips," reads an item in The Oregonlan under date of April 26, 1915. And it is out one of hundreds of such news items which tell the story of "Bob" Phillips' devotion to his duty. Officer Loved Animals, Many of Bob's closest friends never could fathom some of his eccentricities. For Instance, no matter where he was or who he was with, he would Invari ably doff his hat to a mule which might pass him along the road or street. wny all tnis politeness to tne mules, Bob?" his brother deputies asked him time after time. But Bob, with that little Jerk of the head of his, would only laugh dryly and remark: "I know my friends when I see them. Out at the Phillips home, 1134 Union avenue North, hi brother, John Phil lips, yesterday gaxed fondly at one of Bob's latest photographs and told the Btory. "Bob was always a great hand for animals," he said. "When only a youngster he was an expert horseman and when he was but 12 years old he would help neighboring ranchers near our farm in Linnius County, Missouri, to break their horses to the saddle. "It wa in 1880, when Bob was only it years old, that he started to break a young mare which got the best of him. The mare began to buck and run alter nately and wa getting the best of him, when a big mule at the other nd of the pasture ran toward him. This mule ran up and kicked the mare into sub mission so that Bob could !ree himself. Bob always believed he owed his life to that mule, and from that day on he always tipped his hat to those animals."' Devoted to Aged Mother. BnJ Phillips was a great lover of his horjis, and more than once he told his little white-haired mother was all In the world he had to live for. And this devotion remained with him until the last. Even as his life blood was fast ebbing the night he was shot, his sole thought was of his mother. So weak that he could scarcely talk, he motioned to Roy Ward, his brother deputy, to get him hi fountain pen a he lay In a nearby fire station waiting for the ambulance, and there he signed over a bank cer tificate to his mother, and arranged his other business affairs in those few fleeting moments in order that he might give his all to his mother. "I never care to make much money," he would often say. "I can't take it with me when I go, but if I can leave enough for my mother I will be con tent." Had he lived until February 29 of next year, "Bob" Phillips would have reached the 60th milestone along life' rugged road. But because of his splen did physique he appeared to be at least 10 years younger. He wa strong, healthy, virile; no task was too hard, and when he once started out to accom plish anything he never stopped until his task was completed. . He was born at Linnius, Mo., Febru ary 29, 1868. His boyhood was spent on hla father's farm. He came to Portland in the Spring of 1890, living first at Salem and thin at Eugene. He was a member of the Portland police force for a number of years, and there are none of the older members of the force who knew him but who now speak in the most glowing terms of his active, conscientious work as a peace officer. Kind Words Win Friends. He was for six years a deputy under Sheriff Stevens, and when Sheriff Hurl burt was elected to office three years ago he wa appointed chief field deputy. In fact, he was a born officer, and even when he was not In the public service he was serving in some capacity in up holding the law. 'Bob' Phillips was a great lover of animals, and his unfailing kindness to tnese dumb brutes showed to a remark able extent In his handling of men. It is said of hint that seldom, if ever, was ne compelled to resort to force in his handling of refractory prisoners. If a man showed eigns of fight. Bob would sit down with that infectious smile and endeavor to win his point through kind woras. It is still recalled that in 1913 he can tured Homer Baker, ex-convict and man-killer. He surrounded Baker in home near Gresham. and although me ex-convict met him with a arun ready for action, Phillips, by reasoning with the man, finally coaxed him into giving himself up without a fight. This same Bntr was again arrested in Port. land a week ago for a series of clever forgeries, and has been taken East to answer more serious charges. its nard to believe that we've lost poor bod tor good." said Sheriff Hurl ourt yesterday, with a voice which quivered witn emotion. "If hard to realise that he will be with us no more. We can never find a man who can take nis place, ror a finer officer, a better, squarer man never lived."

The 42d annual business meeting of the St. Andrew's Society of Oregon was held Wednesday evening In the Com nercial Club rooms, Oregon building. President W. G. McPherson in the chair. Reports on the year's work were sub mitted by the various officers and com mittees, which went to show that the affairs of the society are in a healthy state, despite the somewhat adverse conditions. The treasurer, Tom Burns, Intimated that the funds had increased to the extent of about $500, which, ac cording to K. K. Baxter, chairman of the committee of management, had been invested in the second liberty loan which is further evidence, if that were needed, of the patriotism and thrift of the canny Scot. The secretary. Hugh I. Cameron, reported that the member ship had decreased somewhat, due to i revision of the roll and a lopping off of considerable "dead wood." Plans for an energetic campaign to augment the personnel of the society were, how ever, fully discussed and it is expected the roll will shortly be restored to about 200 resident members and about 50 non-resident or country members. On behalf of the committee of relief James Cormack reported a disburse ment of over $400 during the year, the lowest over a period of many years and perhaps In the history of the aociety. This decrease he attributed largely to the disappearance of the casual or transient applicant, who had apparent ly migrated south to sunnier if - wet ter" climes. The reliefs this year had been expended exclusively on behalf of residents of the city who are beyond oubt needy and deserving. A satlsfac- ory feature was the repayment of over 110 of loans and reliefs made to indi viduals in temporary financial distress who have now recovered their footing. The election of officers resulted as follows: President, W. t. McPherson vice-president, Tom Burns; treasurer. T. Matthew; secretary, Hugh 1. Cam' eron; assistant secretary, A. T. Smith chaplain.
