An Indian woman and ber son
were arretted Tueeday night, by
Marshal Atkinson, on complaint of
Jesse Mays, who found the Indian
woman in his reeidence, when he
returned home at about 12 o'clock.
The woman was standing in the
hallway, and when Mr. Mays ca
tered, ehe ran upstairs and attempt
ed to hide in the bathroom. Mr.
Mays and Mr. Wright, a lodger.
brought her out and turned her
over to the marshal. On the street
she was joined by a boy, supposed
to be her eon, who was also arrest
ed, as an accomplice. They were
taken to the county jail, but as
there was no evidence against
them, they were today released. It
was supposed that tbey were look
ing for rooms, but they had en
gaged rooms at the Tualatin Hotel,
on tne night of the arrest, which
they left at 11 o'clock, without ex
planation. They were peddling
bead work. A suspicious circum
stance was the finding of two skel
eton keys in their possession.
The body of Lambert, the logger,
who was drowned in Galee Creek,
last week, was recovered and buried
in the Potter's field at Forest Grove,
on Wednesday. Lambert told some
of his companions that be was 45
years of age. He was an expert
enced man at riding log?, but could
not swim. There were no papers
on his body wnen found, and the
only marks of identification were a
scar above the left eye, and a wart
on the left eyelid. The county
stood the expense of burial, though
there was some money comma to
him from the mill company. Lam
bert is supposed to have come from
Michigan. Coroner Brown did not
deem it necessary to hold an in
quest. '
K. l.. Lonaid, chief engineer,
and Guy L. Talbott, general man
ager of the Salem & Portland Elec
tric Line, were in the city Tuesday
and went before the commissioner!
court on business relating to the
settlement of right of way in this
county, somewhere near Tualatin
Both gentlemen expressed them
selvee as being certain that a branch
of the above line would be built to
Hillsboro this year. It is the in
tention of the company to begin
operations in the Spring, just as
soon as weather conditions will
permit.
The Water & Light commiteeeof
the Hillsboro City Council, con
sisting of Connell, Schulmerich and
Emmott, went to Portland yester
day, to see about a new generator
for the electric plant. The com
mittee was accompanied bv Mayo:
Dennis. It is said that the city
will soon take action in the matter
of replacing the old generator with
a new one of greater power, aa the
present demand for lighting has
overtaxed the capacity of the one
now in use. It is also stated that
the city is thinking of making ex
penments with sawdust for fuel.
A committee consisting of G. W
Stitt, N. P. Oakerman, W. O
Hock en, S. K. Nelson, and A. W
Pike, of Beaverton, called upon the
County Judge last Friday, to recom
mend the purchase of a rock quarry
of three acres on the Lilts place
near Beaverton, for road purposes
The Judge and County Commis
eioners went down to see the quar
ry this forenoon, but have not yet
decided to buy it, the price, in
their opinion, being too high.
At the council meeting Tuesday
night, Fred Lehman, of Cedar Mill,
who had a mule killed by a loose
electric wire, a couple weekB ago,
in this city, presented a bill of $250
for same. The bill was referred to

sideration. Council will hold an
adjourned meeting next Tuesday,
