George NoeY alias George Lewis,, in
cused of theft, is said by the police to
have escaped punishment for former of
fenses by being committed to. the In
sane asylum.,
' Noe, who is 58 years of age, was ar
rested - by Patrolman William Oarr
last Thursday. He will be tried in the
police court tomorrow.- . . ;
For mor'e than a week Detectives Day,
Welner and Hartmap have, been- trying
GEORGE NOE ALIAS GEORGE LEWIS
to catch the man, who, has been robbing
hotels. The thief's scheme was to rent
a room at a hotel or lodging-house. He
carried a telescope valise, and when he
left in the morning usually had it filled
with plunder, most of it clothing.
. The police 4hlnk that in Noe they have
the offender. The photograph repro
duced here was taken at Seattle, where
Lewis was arrested December 17, 1902, by
Detectives Kennedy and Byrnes. He had
done work simitar to that which he is
charged with In this city and the de
tectives in Seattle had almost given' up
hope of catching him, so clever was he
In covering his tracks. He is a native of
New Tork and a baker by trade.
He was Identified by Detective Day. The
detectives learned that Noe had pawned
some- clothing under the name of Lewis.
This sounded familiar to Day, and he
hunted through the rogues' gallery until
he found the likeness. However, the
prison Is now smooth shaved and at
first denied his identity. Finally he ad
mitted that the detective was right.
When arrested by Patrolman Carr,
Lewis has in his possession a telescope
valise, containing a quantity of clothing
and an overcoat. Identified as the prop
erty of H. ' Stenntck, a timber cruiser,
who is staying at the St Charles hotel.
unanes J. wnyoer or tne seiiwooa no
te! charges the theft of a quantity of
clothing and, a pair of shoes from ' that
hotel to the telescope thief. A- watch
chain and charm stolen from D. M.-Leabo
have been recovered by the detectives
from a pawn ,shop, and -another crime
charged to Noe Is the theft of an over
coat belonging to C. A. Peacock In the
Palmer house on Alder street.
Lewis says he was discharged from
the Sale asylum but two weeks ago, and
came here from Cottage Grove the Sun
day before his arrest. - . ' ' -

cerns the Uvea of John Brand and his
bride of a year. The husband Is con
fronted by, a flame of his youthful days
when wild oacs were plentiful,' and the
latter, instigated by a new and un
scrupulous lover, attempts to extort
blackmail with some letters which she
had retained, One of these is given
to the wife to poison her mind, and
the scheme -works oat through the fol
lowing scenes until the villain kills the
woman who had .risked so much for
him.- The whltecaps are Incited to be
lieve that Brand is the murderer and
attempts to lynch him. The last act

SAN FRANCISCO THE
PARIS OF AMERICA
.' San Francisco may safely be styled
the Paris of America,", said. Leo Frlede,
with a shake of his head as he recalled
his recent trip to the gay metropolis
of the Pacific coast "Everyone,appeara
to be vying with everybody else to see
who can make the finest display , in
the matter of clothes, and men, women
and children parade-the streets at all
hours of the day and night In purple and
fine linen. - ' -.v ' . , t,.-
. "It ia a'relief to get back to Portland
and away from a town where nearly
everyone plays' the lottery and you can't
go into a hotel or restaurant without
overhearing groups of men talking
about the day's racing. " ' !
."San Francisco Is affected by- too
much prosperity. A great many of, its
people have made, money by recent real
state booms and' they are getting rid
has been inclusive and-thorough.. This
of it spending it in dress, late suppers,
theatres and such, to the sacrifice and
neglect of domestic Hie and the home.
"In business life this condition of af
fairs is felt You cannot pick up a
dally paper without learning of the de
falcation of some person in a responsi
ble position, due to an effort to live up
to the pace which this town of good
fellows has set
"I have been in nearly every city of
importance in the world, and with the
exception of Paris, I belle vol San Fran
cisco has them all beaten in the matter
of extravagance. People who . have
traveled will' bear me out in my state
ments when I say that San Francisco
has for a number of years been noted
for the extravagance with which the
residents of the Golden Gate -city dress,
but that It is growing more marked."
Mr. Frlede is prominent among Port
land's business men and capitalists. Of
the war situation he says the only indi
cation of expected hostilities apparent
In San Francisco was one shipment of
canned meats that passed through the
city while he was there..
''Of the outcome of the' war," toe said,
"1 can only state my opinion. I am
afraid the Jap is conceited and has
overestimated his strength. He is
brave, but when he attempts to whip a
nation three times as strong aa his own
he Is liable to run up against something
hard. -1 have been in Japan and know
that its defenses are strong, but I have
also been in Russia and I know some
thing of its people and its reputation as
a fighter. Unless some other nation in
tervenes Japan will be wiped off the
face of the earth. Russia la a nation
able to maintain its own people, while
Japan barely has a day's food supply
ahead. The little brown man's war
with China I'm afraid swelled his head
a trifle."
