The Multnomah Board de cided they were entitled to but 18 miles, each way, Mr. Bloch says the money and bad locked the trunk. Since then Mr. Allen had not seen the money. Friday morn ing, so ho says, he discovered that the house had been entered during his absence Thursday night, the lock of the' trunk broken and the money taken. Warrants were issued for Chas. Pariott and wife, who for several the auditor mid commissioner from ,uonths had lived near Allen's himself and knoas a thu g or two about legislative bent.

Portland, who were out here last week put in their bill for mileage at 42 miles and it was allowed by Norlhrop's court.

Arriving home the next morning he missed the money, search for Ins beiim impelled by the sight of a broken window pane in the kitch en. Allen told on the witness stand that whoever got the money miittt have rau-ed the window to make (be entrance. Footmarks were visible at the kitchen window, which, he stated corresponded with one of Mrs. Pwrott's shoes, subse quently found at Beaverton where the woman had' purchased a new pair. Parrott and his wife-were brought up Saturday night and Judge Smith set Monday for hearing. Parrott was placed4 in jail unit the woman was left at a hotel under guard. Dep. Dist.

Later: The question of lew for the year came up this afternoon and as the taxable valuation was larger than last year it was sup posed as low a levy as last year's would be sufficient. Sunt. Craia .vas present and quoted the statute to show that over $21349 must la- raised for schools, which would mean at least a 4.8 mills school lax. There seemed to be a general feel ing by the board to make a low- levy but this put a new phase on the question.- Finally however the board levied the following tax: State 4 nulls. School 4 8 " Indigent 1 " County 6.1 Total 15 mills. The tax lew of 15 mills ought to satisfy the most economical tax payer in the state. The levy will bring in to the treasury, funds dis tributed, viz: County. $27131; School, f 21,349; State, 1177.91.32. .Hillsboro Lodge No IV I OUT moot in Uranye liall every Saturday evening.
