Cunning is not only securely shut up In this cell and the door fastened with several pad locks, but last night he wor three pairs of handcuffs and a pair of ankle shackles, and his neck was chained to the top of the cell, the chain being se cured with two padlocks.

WftOtts tmt At the meeting of the council lat evening the committee on health and police reported that It hod investigated the charges preferred against the pro prietors of the' La Tosca saloon; that it was found the proprietors had al ways made every effort to conduct an orderly place of business, and that they were in no manner responsible for the recent disgraceful affair In which Lighthouse Nelson figured. The com mittee recommended that the matter be dropped and the report was adopted without dissent Chairman Morton of the committee declared that It was his intention to see hereafter that all places of the kind are properly con ducted, and he requested Chief of Po lice Hallock to report" to him all in fractions of the regulation. "Here tofore but little' has been done in this respect," said Mr. Morton, "but in the future I will make It my business to see that any saloon keeper violating the ordinances is punished. His li cense will be taken from him and he will find it difficult to secure another one. This goes." Sunday's football game between the Commercial Club and Fort Stevens teams resulted in a victory for the clubmen, the score being 44-0. The Commercials showed up much better on the offensive than during the game of a weejc previous. The soldiers are heavy men and made some gains by means of line bucks. However, the clubmen held them very well, and there was noted Improvement, in their work all around. Oh the defensive they are unusually strong, and if they can get their offensive work down as well,' Multnomah will never score In next Saturday's game. The feature of Sunday's game was the work of Stock ton, who made several fine runs. Bay also played fast ball and frequently was to be seen tackling behind the line. Hoover was the soldiers' mainstay. He la a most efficient fullback, but was not given much support in his efforts to gain ground for the post eleven. The soldiers played a very gentlemanly game throughout,- and seemed quite anxious to do everything possible to give the Commercials some practice. 4 ' Notioe. . 1 Sample bottles .of of .Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, are being distrib uted here from house to house.
