Beauty Doctor Fined
J. D. Raker, the man who was ar
rested by Police Officer Houghton
the other day for canvassing a mas
sage preparation from house to house
without a license was fined 10 dollars
by Police Judge Anderson yesterday.
When put on the stand Raker, who
claims to be "beauty specialist,"
said that he wa$ not selling anything,
but was a traveling manicurist and
masseur. Francis Aubrey and Emma
Davis, two of the women whom he
called on, were put on the witness
stand, but both testified that besides
trying to sell them a (ace wash he
tied to sell them a switch of hair for
$8. Raker, however, denied that he
tried to sell either of the women any
thing, and that the switch he had
shown them was not for sale, but
belonged to a woman in Portland
who had given it to him to bleach.
The satchel that he carried when
opened in the court room failed, how
ever, to show anything that could be
sold, .excepting the switch of hair,
and judging from the contents of the
uit case it was evident that at the
time he was arrested, he either had
sold out his stock or was not selling
anything, as he claimed. The state
ments of the two witnesses were so
strong against the defendant, and
were so convincing that there is little
doubt that Raker was guilty and he
may consider himself fortunate in
'getting off with the light fine imposed
by Judge Anderson.
A Beautiful Gift
H. G. Van Dusen, for seven years
master fish warden of the. state, has
been presented a beautiful gold
watch by the gentlemen , who were
most closely associated with him
'during his long incumbency in that
important office. The watch is
really an exceptionally handsome and
valuable one, and probably there is
no gift that Mr. Van Dusen would
appreciate more highly. The presen
tation of the watch was made by Ole
J. Settem, of Astoria,, state water!
bailiff, and it came as a complete
surprise to the recipient. During his
incumbency in the , office Mr. Van
Dusen made many warm friends, and
that his efforts to better the fish in
dustry were appreciated by the men
who best understand such matters,
may be seen by a glance at the fol
lowing list, comprising the men who
made the gift of the watch to Mr.
Van Dusen: Frank C. Brown, deputy
fish warden, Sellwood; John D. Wil
son, deputy fish warden, Yoncalla;
Ole J. Settem, state water bailiff, As

Miguel, may find further trouble on
his arrival here as the report that he
carried passengers on the vessel at
the time of the accident does not
agree with his sworn statement to
the custom house officials. There is
a law that provides that no vessel
carrying high explosives , shall also
carry passengers and the Anubis left
this port with 10,000 pounds of dyna
mite on board. '
Punishment for a violation of this
restriction must be borne by the cap
tains, of foreign owned vessels such
as the Anubis and consists of a fine
of $1,000. Von Salzen swore he car
ried no passengers.
