Ethel Metcalf, the girl who disappeared from Oakland, Ore., June 26, in company with one George Gray, was arrested with the man Tuesday night in a lodging house at the Hammond mill, where the two have been living under the name of St. Clair, for aboift a month. According to the statement made by the girl in the presence oi City At torney Nor b lad, Captain of Police Houghton and Immigration Inspect or Riley, her people knew of her leaving Oakland with Gray. . She Bays they left on a freight train for Roseburg, intending to go from there to Los Angeles, Cal., where they were to have been mar ried. Owing to a landslide the train was unable to proceed and they hired a horse and buggy and went on to Roseburg, where they took the next train for Portland. After staying in Portland for a couple of days they were dissuaded from attempting to Becure a license to marry, owing to the publicity given the case in the newspapers, and so came to Astoria, Intending to stay here until the af fair blew over and then take a steam er for California. The girl says an other man named Gray, whom she calls "Jack," had got into trouble with the landlady of the rooming house where she had been working and that it was to avoid testifying against him that she went away. She had only known the man with whom she left Oakland about two days. She is a pretty, unsophisticated girl and implicitly believes that the man intended to keep his promise of marriage, and says she is over 18 years of age. She places the blame for the entire matter on the woman for whom she was working.

The Piute Indians, who hold forth in the vicinity of Burns, but who re cently decamped because of a small pox scare, are returning to their homes. This is the word brought from the northwest: Two months ago Burns had a smallpox scare, there having come in from outside points two persons af flicted with the disease. Quite a number of people were exposed, but prompt action by the local health of ficers prevented the spread of the disease. The Piute Indians near Burns are very much afraid of smallpox, be sides being very superstitious regard ing its presence. As soon as the In dians became aware of the existence of the disease there was an Indian exodus that depopulated their camps. They went as far as Winnemucca, Nev. The hotels, restaurants and families dependent upon Indian la bor for laundry purposes, wood saw ing, etc., have been obliged to shift along unsatisfactorily. The Indians were glad to get back, being hungry and hard up for cash. NICKELS WORTH FIVE CENTS. 1910 Coins Rring No More Than Those of Other years! Sacramento. Since the rumor that nickels coined in 1910 were to be re called by the government at a pre mium, local banks have had a run on the coins. It is said that some of the 1910 five-cent pieces were composed of a different alloy than others, and were supposed to have a small amount of gold in them. The rumor was spread that nickels of 1910 were being bought by local banks for 17 cents apiece. Recent ly a number of people have requested local banks to change gold into nick els. They would eagerly search through the five-cent pieces, picking out all those of 1910. On taking the supposed premium pieces to the banks again, the would-be financiers would find that they were only worth face value, and their trouble was for naught. iLoot is Nnearthed. Seaside, Ore. Last Tuesday a car penter while moving a cottage near the Colonial Hotel discovered a pile of silverware under one of the posts of the underpinning.
