SCUFFLE ATTRACTS HELP
J. II. Gujnor, Hurried From Court
Ijouse Corridor to Jail
Pleads With Captor.
In a courthouse corridor on his way
to the jail elevator in custody of Roy
Ivfcndu.il. deputy sheriff, yesterday. J.
II. Gaynor whipped a .45 caliber auto
matic pistol from a hidden holster and
pressed the muzzle into the stomach
or the officer.
"Don't holler! Lemme go of I'll
bore yuh!" he demanded in low, ex
cited tones. People were passing the
courthouse entrance only a few feet
to their rear and persons might enter
the swinging doors at any moment.
"Oirame that (run!" was the only
reply of the deputy sheriff, as he
struck the barrel aside and grabbed
the weapon with a powerful hand. A
test of strength followed. The pris
oner was six feet tall and weighed
flout 175 pounds. Kendall was
slightly taller and had fully 35 pounds
the advantage in weight. The man
he had clinched with was muscular
and desperate and the struggle was
fierce in its intensity. The hammer
of the pistol was drawn back and the
finger of Gaynor was on the trigger.
K'.ndall confined most of his efforts
to making sure it was pointed toward
the floor, as the noise of the scuffle
had brought courthouse employes to
the corridor, within easy range.
Pintol la DixcharBed.
II. Kubik, an ice man, entered the
door at this moment and, seeing him,
Kendall shouted, "Strong-arm him!"
"What?" asked Kubik, hesitantly.
The police jargon meant nothing to
him.
"Choke him with your arm." sup
plemented Kendall, as he and Gaynor
lunged to the floor.
As they struck the marble flooring
the pistol was discharged. The lead
nosed bullet spattered against tiled
wail. Kubik, Professor Frank to. Har
I isan of Washington high school and
other mn. attracted by the shot, were
in the melee by this time, and a mo
ment later the pistol had been

had been thrown into the jail elevator.
Instead of facing prosecution on
charges of passing of bad checks
and the theft of an automobile, on
which charges he was arrested,
Gaynor will plead to a charge of as
sault with intent to kill, with much
more serious consequences upon prob
able conviction.
Weapon Hidden in Coat.
Gaynor was released from the
county jail at Salem about four
months ago charged with bad check
pussing and resumed his illegal oc
cupation upon arriving in Portalnd.
according to reports received by the
authorities. An automobile theft is
also checked up against him, to
gether with two bad check charges
made In Hillsboro.
The arrest was made at 192 Tenth
street shortly after 11 o'clock yes
terday. Kendall searched Gaynor
somewhat perfunctorily for weapons
and finding none started for jail with
his prisoner ahead of him. The big
automatic was hidden inside his coat.
It wasdirectly after he entered the
swinging doors, at the Fifth and Sal-
raon streets entrance to the court
house, that Gaynor suddenly swung
about without warning and dug his
pistol barrel into the deputy's abdo
men. According to information in the
hands of Sheriff Hurlburt, Gaynor had
been posing as an internal revenue
officer and usually wore two large
pistols strapped to his hips beneath
his coat.
(aynor Pleads With Coptor,
"His favorite dodge, as we under
stand, was to step Into the store of a
victim selected and carelessly allow
his coat to flap back so that the guns
were revealed," explained Deputy
Sheriff Beckman. "He also would
'accidentally' flash a rake star. Then
he would explain that he was a fed
eral officer in search of counterfeit
ers and moonshiners, spin a cock and
bull story of his Importance and cas
ually wind up with a request to cash
a personal check, usually for $60
or 170."
There are enough charges now filed
Against Gaynor to keep him out of
trouble for some time.
After reaching the jail, Gaynor
pleaded with his captor:
"Now, listen. Kendall." he gulped,
' I wasn't goin' to shoot you. Honest.
1 was just handing you my gun."
"Funny place to hand it to me," re
marked Kendall, "and queer way you
explained your desire to give it to

Health Had Given Up
All Hope.
"I will praise Tanlac as long as I
live, for it has given me back my
health after my Triends had given up
all hope and were not expecting me
to live," said Mrs. O. E. Woods, who
lives at 400 East Thirtieth street,
Portland, Ore., a few days ago.
"For about two years before I be

health and gradually growing worse
all the time." continued Mrs. Woods.
"I had no appetite to speak of and
even the little I forced myself to eat
disagreed with me and gave me ter

my heart. Gas troubled me so bad

choke to death in spite of all I could
do. I was badly constipated and all
the time had to be taking laxatives
and often I would have blinding, dizzy
spells and terrible headaches. I was
never free from a dreadful pain in my
back and sometimes it hurt so bad I
could scarcely breathe. ... My neck
would swell up and pain me so bad
that I couldn't button my waist at thf
top and I have seen times when th
pains went all down my spine. I was
so nervous that I would scream a

and treatments, but obtained no re
lief, and in all I spent about a thou
sand dollars, but it was all wasted.
"I read so much about Tanlac in the
papers and what it was doing for
other people that I made up my mine'
to try it. I improved so fast thai

she was actually surprised to find
me looking so well and feeling so
much better. I have taken five bot

good health as any woman sixty-three
years old, for my troubles have left
me and I am feeling fine all the time.
I have such a splendid appetite that
I eat .the same meals as my husband
and I enjoy them now, for everything
agrees with me perfectly and I have
no bad effects at all. The pains in my
back, neck and spine have all left
me and my nerves are steady again
and nothing disturbs me. I am no

arid dizzy spells are a thing of the
past. I sleep sound all night long and
get up feeling so fine that I really
enjoy doing my work, and I do it all
by myself and don't get tired or worn

"It was about 25 years ago," says
Mr. Blagg. "I have forgottofi the ex
act date. 1 was shipping clerk at the
Camas paper mill, and I remember
very well how cold it was. for I was
constantly on the dock. The Colum
bia froze over three times that winter.
"One day we had orders to fill a
huge scow with all the paper we had
and rush it down stream. The Ore
gonian was running low. and that
consignment of big rolls simply had
to be gotten down the Columbia. We
helped tret the scow out of the slough
and only left her at Lady island. But
the ice jam caught the shipment just
off Vancouver. The river froze over
so thickly, however, that the paper
was transferred to shore by sleds and
teams hastened It in so that the big

J!y de-ar Hartog:
May I express to you ny sincere- appreciation and that of
Mre. English for tho wonderful service your organization has
rendered in installing and making absolutely satisfactory the
Gasco Furnace, at my residence, 918 Bryce Avenue.
Let ae confess that at the time we installed it, I
consented with some d.8givings, with the hope that it would
relieve Mrs. English of the duties of caring for the furnace
and expecting to pay the price by having the gaa fumes
throughout the house. It has worked out so very satisfactorily
and even the joy of the possession of the furnace is overshadowed
by the courtesy and the promptness with -which your men have
responded to calls, and, above all, by. that sincere desire to
render a service that has been most perceptible.
It would seem to me that whatever system you use in
securing the hearty co-operation of your workers surely points
the way to modern business methods and conduct.
