According to th story that come to Th Astorlan In an Indirect way from a man who la connected the Fort Stev ens, the arrest of th three men who are now locked up In the guardhouse awaiting trial by courtmartlal for at tempting to burn the post waa a clever nler of work on th part of a Port land jfflwr, said to be Detective Sim mon. It Is said that the arrest of the three men will brlnir out all the fact In connection with the Incendiarism, and that the guilty persons will' "be glv;n the punishment they so richly deserve. For month past effort to burn the fort were periodically made, and so daring and mysterioua were the oper ations of the incendiaries that general alarm was felt at the post. Ouards were doubled and every other possible' precaution wss taken to catch the of fenders, but. despite the watchfulness of the officers and troop, the attempts continued. A week ago the Incendiar ies again trlid to destroy the fort, but the fire wa extinguished before it bad done much damage. The detective who brought about the arrest of the men Is said to have come to Astoria and remained for several days, making the acquaintance of sol diers. Later he went to the post and enlisted. After a short stay he satis fied himself of the guilt of one of the men, with whom he became quite friendly. On pay day detective and suspect received their money, and, sol dier-like, came to the city to spend it. While here the detective told the sol- j dler he Intended deserting, and the sol dier became confidential enough to tell the officer that he, too, had planned to leave the army. It wa agreed that both should leave together, and the Portland train carried them out the fol lowing night. "I At Portland the suspect unbosomed himself to the detective. He said he wo the ringleader of the Incendiaries and that he had planned the fires, and even went o far as to give the naims of his confederates. After getting a damaging confession from the man, the detective disclosed, his Identity and placed the soldier under arrest.

Pears' People have no idea how crude and cruel soap can be. It takes off dirt. So far, so good; but what else does it do. It cuts the skin and frets the under-skin; makes red ness and roughness and leads to worse. Not soap, but the alkali in it. Pears' Soap has no free, al kali in it. It neither reddens nor roughens the skin. It re sponds to water instantly; wash esand rinses off in a twinkling; is as gentle as strong; and the after-effect is every way good.
