HIGH-ROLLER ON TRIAL.
BALTIMORE. Md- May 17.-
William F. Downs, former stock
alcrk in the city register's office, was
placed on trial today, charged with
the larceny of large sums of money
rom the city. A crowded courtroom,
gare evidence of the great amount of
public interest manifested in the case,
lew persons in Baltimore were bet
ter known than young Downs, who
eotnes of good family and for sev
eral vrars had occupied a responsible
the citv offices. His
prv .v.'
downfall was the direct result of his
axtravagant mode of living.
On 1 salary of $1500 a year young
Downs for several years past lived
at put that only a millionaire could
follow without going bankrupt. It is
said that on more than one occasion
te spent in a single night an amount
nearly equal to his year s salary. He
kept np an extravagant establishment
and maintained a stable of fast horses
He was known as the best-dressed
man in Btltimore and whenhis rooms
were searched after his arrest his
wardrobe was found to contain forty
suits of clothes of the most expensive
make. One of his most escapades
was the taking of an entire troupe of
chorus girls to New York for a good
time. The party traveled in a special
ear and during a week's frolic on the
Great White Way of the metropolis
all of the bills were paid by Down.

THE PRESIDENT PLAYS ON.
NEW YORK. May 17.-Albert
Hoppert, "0 years old, had become so
disgusted with a long article in news
papers concerning President Taft's
golf playing that when he came upon
another of the narratives yesterday
in his home at Fair Ground, L- I-, he
yawned so widly and so long that he
dislocated his jaw. It required a
j journey to a hospital and the services
of two psysicians to relieve him.
HEALTH OFFICER REAMES
MAKES THOROUGH-GOING
SEARCH-ALL WELL
urday, and that he would agree to
make 158 pounds, but would insist on
a much larger purse than the
which has been mentioned previously,
ketchcl intimated that he would d.i
tvad a loose of from $10,000 to $15
COO. As Kctchcl has many engage
ments ahead and his demands arc not
considered promising for n light with
Papke, there is sonic thought ot
matching htm with Tommy Ryan, the
veteran, who has just come forward
with a broadside challenge.
ritv Health Officer Dr. Clara
Reames, accompanied by Police Chief
Fred Oberg, yesterday boarded the
tmr Samson .and gave that vessel a
cnmnlcte overhauling, with a view to
determining the alleged bad conditions
existing on her. Captain Hobson re-j
eeived them with courtesy and did all
in his power to make the visit one of
success in every way. ine uoctor
found that the vessel was free from
all taint and germs and that the
water used on board was of the oest,
the solendid water of Astoria being
used entirely for drinking purposes,
and the cooking water taken from
the river in its upper and clearer
reaches, with tanks and water-butts,
sweet and clean and washed out reg
ularly: in fact the vessel was given a
clean bill of health in so far as the
idea of her impregnation with dan
gerous causes for communicable dis
eases was concerned. It was ascer
tained that young Charles Darrah,
whose unhappy death was supposed
to have originated on the Samson,
had previously been in service on the
dredger W-. S. Ladd, now condemned
and laid up in ordinary at Portland,
and that he had been on the Samson
but three weeks. He had been in
Portland during that city's recent un
fortunate water troubles, so it re
mains a problem as to just where h;
contracted the malady that sacrificed
his young life.

they decorate the graves of those
who had died by their own hands as
the result of their failure to find
employment or of hardships created
by the industrial depression would do
much to bring to the attention of
those responsible for the condition of
the unemployed. It was also plan
ned to have a parade as a rival to
that of the G. A. R., and to go to
the cemeteries at the same time but
with the flowers they purposed to
place on the- graves of each suicide
a banner or placard calling attention
to the resolution of the society-
Mankind Still Finds Woman Beauti

BOSTON. May 17--Hugh H. Cain
the Boston sculptor, declares that
women's figures have 'been ruined by
devotion to fashion. 'Woman's fig
ure is getting poorer and poorer
every year," declares Cain.
The female form is degenerating
because of style. "The women of
today are getting further and further
away from the Greek figure of 2000
ears ago, which they are all seeking
to attain and which the whole world
admires. As one instance of this,
those who determine what is fash
iomble are trying to bring the waist
line further down all the time.
"At present an effort is being made
to get it down as low as the hips.
This U all wrong, of course, for nat
ure long ago decreed that it should
be jut below the breast, allowing a
oft. graceful line from hip to arm-m."

NEW .YORK, May 17--After hav
uur giv.-n up all hope of seeing laud
ajrain. Captain Aaroilion and his crew
of live, of the IJriti-.h schooner Roa-
fiokt. which went to pieces 25 mile
off the Azores on March 26, arrived
tiere today on the Fabre line steamer
Gallia. Loaded down with a cariro of
-alt from Santa Paola, for St. Johns,
N. B., the Roanoke ran into a hurri
cane when 150 miles off Fayal which
cut her canvas into shreds. A jury
S'lii was rigged and the crew manage
to get the sinking vessel to a point 25
miles from the Azores when the seas
carried away the deckhouse. The onlv
lifeboat on the Roanoke had been so
damaged by the storm that it was
necessity to repair it with canvas.
As the Roanoke began to settle Cap
tain Aaronson and his men got under
way in a small boat, thcy rowed the
25 miles into Fayal through raging
seas, the work requiring three nights
and three days. In that time thty
passed two steamers which did not
reply to their flaring torches. At
Fayal they were so exhausted that
they were kept in the hospital until
tne OalJia touched there and brought
them to New York.
There has been a number of
changes in the game laws as enacted
by the last legislature. It is now
unlawful to kill elk until 1919. Only
five deer can be killed by any one
person in a year, and no female deer
can be killed at any time. The duck
season open October 1st and closes
February 15th. Salmon trout and bass
can be caught at any time and the
trout season is. from April 1st to No
vember Ut. The limit of ducks is 35
in one week but no limit on geese.
Quail arc limited to five in one day
or ten in one week. The trout limit
j is a on one May. Ducks can be sold
between November 15 and Decem
ber 15. Under the old law ducks could
not be sold but they were sold on
the quiet. The new laws goes into
t effect May 25.
Every person desiring to hunt
1 or fish mtt-t pay a license oi
$1.00 or each, and a license is
.good in any CMinty in the state. The
penalty for not procuring a license U
tine of from $25 to $150. The law
jiiKo makes a )i,.,-ny tine for shooting
on inc!o-..d land without permission.
: Killing of Chir.e-c pheasants is pro
'ubited en'irjy in nearly all the
F.a-tern Oregon countes for four
years. No grout- of rmy kind can be
. -.old or -hippi-d outside of the state.
Heretofore th" game laws were made
I in the interest, of the Multnomah
; Rod & Gun Club, but this year people
( in other sections of the state may
U-noy the same priviliges.
Walter Jones Ingalt. one of the
best known cilifcn of Clatsop conn-
tv. is no more. He died at his Lewis
it Clark ranch yesterday morning t
4:10 o'clock, after but a few day
illness from pneumonia. The new
came as a distinct shock to this com
munity where Mr. Infills has been a
figure of Importance for many ycari,
llhough it was known that he was
dangerously sick.
Mr. Inunlts was a native of KKli-
ford, Franklin county, Vermont, and
was bom there in December. W.
which gave him jut 68 years of lifs.
25 of which he spent in this county
and section.
When quite a young man he went
to Lawrence, Mass.. and was there
when the awful disaster of collapsi
overtook the famous mills of that
town, and was among the rescuing
party that was beneath the walls
when they fell. He afterward went
to Lynn, Mass., where he worked at
the shoemakers' trade; and there In
vented an axle-cutter with which he
went on the road and canvassed n
greater part of the country
The deceased --""c lo Clatsop in
ltS4. ami was o deeply impressed
with tile nossibilitte oi this country.
that he rrmainrd and built Ins h-'ine
on the Lewis St Clark, and raised his
family; becoming almost at once one
I" the active political figures of this
section, and alwajs a eoiisistant an I
ardent Republican. Mr myalls was
of resolute and aggressive character
and yet was one of the frees! and
readiest in all emergencies of inter
est and aid and neighborly good will.
He was strictly honorable in all his
dealings and very exacting in all
matters of business. He was a work
er for the uplift and advantage of
his home section and many of tlu
fixed improvements out on the Lewis
& Clark arethere because of his in
terest and active concern and work.
The deep sympathy of the entire
county goes out to his widow and
son and grandchildren. He was a
prominent F.Ik and will be buried
nnder'the auspices of that famous
order; the interment taking place in
the family plat on the home farm at
an hour and day yet to be an
nounced. Mr. Ingalls was a brother of
Daniel J. Ingalls of this citv.
