Bayard Dudley, the alleged thief ar

which he admits having stolen.
Ihe prisoner took the detectives to
Oregon City where they found a watch
and chain, which Dudley had sold, and
It was returned to Its owner In Holla

about 25 miles from Portland, where
Dudley gaVe It to a woman friend. The
officers will return this to its rightful

will unearth other stolen timepieces.

guilty and his case will be taken di

detectives state that he has baffled
them for over a year because after
Stealing money or jewelry he invariably
left the city, never pawning any of his
plunder here. When arrested he was
about to leave for Puget Sound. On

building was entirely destroyed. The
shop was as dry ss tinder, and burned
with such terrific fury that the streams
which the firemen played in the flames
Seemed to have but little eeffct
The fire caused a bright illumination,
which could be seen from all parts of the
city, and hundreds of people returning
from the evening entertainments flocked
to the scene. Many thought that the
railroad freight sheds were burning.
While thecarpenter shop was not near
any other building, there were many
piles of lumber surrounding it. and it
required hard work on the part of the
firemen to prevent the spread of the
blase. In the building was much fin
ished lumber, some of which was to
have been used in the Interior of the
Mohawk Building.
The motive of the firebug Is unknown.

Elliott was at the tllleY, and as the huge

'RESIDENTS AS WORKERS
Says Jerry Smltu, the veteran of the
White House:
"Mr. Roosevelt Is not like any of the
other Presidents; he doesn't ever take
any rest unless he goes away from town.
General Grant would come to the office
about' 10 o'clock and work until 2; then
he would take a lunch and go for a drive.
Gonerally he and General Beale would
start out at the same time, eich In a
ingle buggy, and they got to racing out
side the city limits almost every time
before they Came back. Grant never
went into the office after 2 o'clock, ex
cept by special appointment. Mr. Hayes
kept about the same hours as General
Grant, but he was much more of a
churchgoing man than any of the other
Presidents.
"Mr. Garfield also left his office about
2 o'clock every day for a lunch and a
drive. The Garfield boys were a merry
crowd, and many a prank they played,
riding their pony Into the cellar and
jumping Into the big fountain In their
bathing suits. Mr. Arthur was the fin
est gentleman that was ever In the
White House In the way of having an
elegant time. He usually did not go to
tne omce tin past 11, and then left at 2.
