Thurlow W; . Parker tried to . escape
from the .custody , of ,- Deputy Sheriff
Morland while on his way to the Salem
penitentiary yesterday evening. . His
conduct comes as a complete surprise to
Circuit, Judge - George- and those, who
; were present when he was sentenced to
live years for forgery, . The , attempt
. was so reckless and the prisoner had so
small a chance of escaping that the
common opinion expressed is that he is
partly demented.. 'Jailer Jackson Is sat
isfied this theory la correct,
When the train' reached Woodburn
the 'prisoner said the. car; was too warm
and asked that a window be raised.
One was raised on the opposite side of
the car. Parker acted restless and hear
the- race track at. Salem raised his
manacled hands and smashed the win-
clow.
"I was expecting something' and
grabbed him around the waist," said
Moreland, "As 1 pulled him backward
Deputy Lew Harlow who had an Insane
.man in custody, shoved Parker's head
to the, floor and we bound his legs with
n trunk strap.- He looked desperate and
talked incoherently, v At Salem he had
to be carried to' the state bus."
Salem. Or- Feb.:- 11. T. W. Parker,
the young Portland forger, while on
his way up from Portland to begin his
term of service ,' at the penitentiary,
made a desperate attempt ' to throw
, himself from the train Just after pass
ing the fair grounds, and he all-but
succeeded. He struck the window with
his manacled hands, breaking It, and
was ; In . the act of forcing himself
through when Deputy Sheriffs Morel
and Barlow seized him and forced him
back into his seat. Prom the time he
left Portland he had shown signs Of
uneasiness, but he was closely watched
and made a failure of his attempt to
escape. He Is now in the prison for his
Ave years' service, and will probably
not have another opportunity to escape.

The rains ' that have gladdened the

a pile or logs his collar bone was broken,
Ms right arm injured, his eyes affected,
Ills left side and the lower part, of his
abdomen bruised, his spine injured, his
lumbar plexus nerves Jarred out of gear,
una tne great sciatic nerve hurt in
ucn a manner, that his right leg is

that he suffered internal injuries and
ms whole system received a great shock,
rrom the effect of which he still is
tortured ooauy and mentally.

ENTER STORE BUT

Thieves broke into the postofTice and
grocery store at Woodstock, kept by A.
Haffenden ft Co., at an early hour this
morning. Bo far as Mr., Haffenden can
discover nothing was taken and the only
loss seems to have been a pane of
glass that was broken from a rear
Window. . .....
At t o'clock this morning Mr, Haffen
den made a light-In his house, which
Hands opposite his store, and he sup
poses that this light frightened the
would-be robbers away. The store was
entered some time after midnight-the
thieves breaking a pane In the rear win
dow and throwing the catch. ; As is his
custom. Mr. Harrenden left the . cash
register open and this was not dls
turbed. the money had been deposited
in a safe place and the register left
unlocked, to, avoid it being broken open
ana destroyed.

YET DISCOVERED.
. Parties who know the value of seal
skins broke Into the store. of the Silver-
neia ur manufacturing company at 28S
Morrison street and stole several thnn.
sand dollars' ?worth of skins, besides a
number of jackets. One wax -figure wag
laaen irom tne west shop window, car
ried to the center of the retail store
room and a valuable jacket pulled off
the dummy. No other furs In the win
dow are known to be missing. ?
v wnen me store was opened this morn
ing muddy footprints were seen on the
stairs leading up to the second floor.
This discovery surprised the employes
and they at once made an investigation.
Upon reaching "the! second floor,: where
nearly "100;000 worth of furs are kept,
the clerks found a mass of debris that
looked as though a small cyclone' had
been at work among the skins.
Uhe discovery bt the robbery' was at
once reported to the police. L Jacobs,
manager of the store, was at once tele
phoned for, and as soon as he arrived a
search was made of the rooms, but no
clue to the robiers was discovered. A
window on the third floor had been left
open, as was one in Andrew Kan's curio
store next door. -' ,
Detectiv L. H. Hartman was detailed
on the case, and upon investigation it
was - round tnat the sealskin robbers
had entered Mr. Kan's store through the
front door, gone to the third floor and
pried open a window in the fur store.
Mr. Kan stated that he left his store
about 10 O'flock last night, and that he
is sure n -one. was in his establishment
when he left.! As the front door was
unlocked when he arrived this morning.
Mr. 'Kan is of the opinion that the rob
bers used a skeleton key in securing ad
mlttance into his store.
Mr. Jacobs says that he is unable
to state Just the value of the skins and
Jackets , that t were taken, but It - is
thought that the Iobs will reach sev
eral thousand dollars. - Many skins are
known to bo missed, besides several of
the most valuable Jackets in the store.
Although many other costly furs ah d
skins lay around the sealskins, the
manager thinks that the robbers . took
-nly articles mf.de from the water ani
mal. ? - -.--..'- .r-, ;..:,i- -
It Is the opinion of the police that the
thieves had been watching the night of
ficers whose beats are on both Morrison
and Fourth streets and knew Just at
What hour they would have a clear field
to get away with their booty. Owing to
the. fact that a dummy was taken from a
front show-window. It is thought that
the. robbery was made in the early mow,
ing, as many people are passing the store
until J -o'clock in the morning. -

SAVES TROUBLE
AND MUCH DELAY
(Journal Special Service.)
Baker City, Or., Feb. 11. A unlque,
systematic, scientific, effective and most
satisfactory preliminary tax notice has
been originated and adopted by- Sheriff
H. K. Brown for the collection of the
1903 tax in Baker county. Heretofore
there has been a jtreat deal of delay and
annoyance, both on the part of the tax
payers and tax collectors when the time
came for payment in the sheriff's office
of the year's assessment. A man would
get a notice that he owed $19 for taxes
and he would appear ... at , the sheriff's
office without 'knowing on what prop
erty he was assessed or desired to pay.
It took time to hunt up the records, and
pernaps two or three visits on the tax
payer's part to get at the desired In
formation.
, Sheriff Brown has originated a form
oi ui nonce wnicn is a sneet IlKe a
railroad voucher, in duplicate, and con
tains an exact copy of the taxroll giv
ing the taxpayer the definite informs
tlou and positive description of the ex
act property taxed against him and the
amount. This notice and its duplicate
sre mailed to the taxpayer, and when
he comes to pay his taxes all he has
to do la to present his notice, designate
tne property ne desires to pay on. hand
over his money and the tax collecter
stamps his voucher "paid," signs It,
tears of the duplicate and the work Is
done in one-tenth of the time, formerly
requirea. ah those who have exam
ined the system unite in the opinion
that is the simplest, most effective and
Practicable tax collection system ever
used in this state. On the back ef the
original voucher Ms a detailed copy of
the tax levy for 1903. and an extract
from the law under which the levy is
maae. . -. . .
Boom far Bake City. '
The evidence is growing eveYy day
that Baker City is to be the center of
a system of railroad transc-ortatlon
which will revolutionize trade in east
ern Oregon, to the extent that It will
quadruple business several times within
Wie next aecade.
From a Salt Lake paper, dated the
first of this week, it is learned that
the Oould Interests have decided to at
once begin tne construction of an al
most parallel line of railroad from Utah
through a new pass upon lower rradoa
and with lesser curves through Nevada
Into California, and connecting at Sac
ramento witn racinc coast systems.
This line will be almost an air line and
situated to the south of the nresent
Southern Pacltlo main line. At Reno
the new uouid line will connect with
the road now being built northward
from that point through California into
Oregon. ' : . -.: - : . . .- ;--t , - .,:
It is stated on good authority that it
is . more than probable that' arrange
ments will be completed this season
whereby the Sumpter Valley railroad
will build its proposed extension on
down from Burns HQ miles and con
nect with the Reno road.- thus arlvlnir
Baker City a short line to Sacramento
and Ban Francisco. President David
Ecclos -of the Sumpter Valley has just
returned from Portland, where he went
to have a conference with President
Mohler of- the O. R. A N. Co.. In re
gard to questions concerning the inter
change of traffic, and while the confer
ence did not take place, because Presi
dent Mohler had been called to New
York by sickness in his family, yet Mr.
Ecclea strongly Intimated on his re
turn here that some sort of a big mov
was , on foot. It would hardly be toa-
slble for. the Sumpter Valley to play a
lone hand in a deal of this kind,' and
the O. R. & N. already having friendly
relations with that road, and also be
ing interested' in the extension of ' the
Columbia Southern 'from Shanlko, would
naturally desire to cement transporta
tion facilities. In eastern Oregon by
throwing a network of roads In the field.
W. L. Vinson is expected back from
New-York this week, and it is under
stood that he, has perfected arrange
ments for the building of the railroad
from Baker City to the Seven Devils,
having already perfected traffic arrange
ments with the O. K. & N. Co. at Baker,
City.
