from Mrs. Shupback.
A FRIGHTFUL TALE OF
OFFICIAL CRUELTY
The Lad Has Escaped from Care
takers Five Times and Is
Planning Another.
It was still dark and cold Skis morn
ing whim Mrs. J. T. Shupback, 2 Kast
Thlrtj tlrat street, hoard a faint knock
at her door. It waa so feeble that sho
paid no attention to It. Then she heard
ihe knock again and, opening the door,
aw a very small boy, very muddy,' very
cold and very much frightened.
His ankle was swollen and he limped
painfully. He wore neither shoes, hat
nor coat. He was clad only in a blue
calico waist, short trousers and stock
ings. He waa covered with mud and
darted back In fear when the door waa
thrown open. The pain and cold gave
him courage and he advanced timidly.
"Please, ma'am, may 1 come in?" he
said.
Certainly he could come in. the woman
replied. 8he took the child In her arms,
removed the muddy clothing, replaced
them with warm, dry garmenta, placid
him by the atove and fed him. Then
her heart went out to the lad as he told
his atory, and she called her husband
tu listen She did not know that un
heralded and unannounced the little
stranger who had come to her for aid
waa the uncrowned prince of Juvenile
ilUra and the identical youngster who
bad caused t lie police more trouble than,
any youth of hia years who had ever
com Into their clutches.
Oh! The Cruel Officers.
He told how cruel officers had taken
him from his loving mother because he
stayed out after 8 o'clock one night;
bow they took him Into court, and how
the Judge had refuaed to listen to the
tearful pleadings of himself and mother
and had sent him to the Boys' and Girls'
Aid society. How there, he had tried
faithfully and hard to be good, but cruel
' treatment had driven him away. They
did not feed him except on soup, he
said. He had no clothing but those he
wore. They would not give him shoes.
He was sitting by fire last night.
he continued sadly, with the other boys
and girls, when a chunk of wood fell
from the stove upon the floor. Buperln
tend, nt Gardner, he said, kicked him un
mercifully when the wood fell out, and
that was why he limped. rnis pmiut
tory so impressed Mrs. Shupback that
he staved with her all the forenoon, eat
ing choice things and nursing the
swollen ankle.
Meanwhile at the school there was
commotion. At breakfast time it was
discovered that Johnnie Walker, years
old. who was recaptured for the fourth
time only last Monday, had again made
his escape. How he managed It was a
mystery for a time. Investigation, how
aver, revealed the fact that the lock on
the small door of the coal chute on the
fourth floor had been tampered Wltn.
From the fourth floor to the basement
thrimtti the chute la about 76 feet and
a very nice trip for a very small boy to
make, provided he can keep irom railing.
Sow Ha Oot Mm Bora Ankle.
But Johnnie wouldn't keep from fall
ing. He had elbowed his way down al
most to the bottom and In hla anxiety
and haste had grown rareleas. losr hls
hold and fell onto the ground. He
apralned his ankle In the fall, but deaplt
the pain and throbs that almoat made
htm cry he staggered to his feet and
ran limping Into the forest back of th
building. He did not stop to dry his
tears nor to heed the pain, but hastened
on. He knew not where to go. but be
fore htm was the big world and behind
him the school which he hated with all
the hate that he could hold. He stag
gered blindly on through the dark and
i mud until he saw a ray of light.
He was returned to the school at noon.
This was his fifth escape, he declared
proudly, and It would not bo his laat.
Last Sunday he left, but was captured
on Ibis side the river the next day. Ha
was cutting wood at First and Colum
bia streets when found. After his first
attempt to get away h.rwas put In girl's

.and Is said to have t deterring effect on

times he has escaped In dresses and

CHIEF HUNT DEFIES

Chief of Police Hunt has defied the
order of Mayor Williams and Is endeav

good results by the Institution of a rock
pile. Refusing to abolish his "kanguroo
court," he leaned against the police sta
tion counter this morning and as a judge
discharged 11 men from custody and or
dered them to leave the city. Only three
men were reserved for work on the rock
sola a :
In addition to giving the two guards
sent to the station this morning by City
Kngineer Elliott only three men to place
at work, he failed to have the prisoners
ready at 8 o'clock, the hour apeclfled. and
did not send them out until half an hour
later.
Among the men filed by the chief aa
"kangaroo judge" was one charged with
begging, who haa in the past given the
police much trouble. Chief Hunt had
stated that when a man waa found In
the city after being ordered to leave, he
would be haled before Police Judge
Hogue, yet regularly in the last two
weeks men have been aet free after they
had been taken Into custody several

General Agent of New York Cen

Lewis and Clark Fair.
W. B. Jerome, general agent of the
New York Central lines, who Is In Port
land on a epeclal trip of Inspection of
the Lewis and Clark fair, expresses the
nninton that the Portland event next
year will attract aa many people frorn
cast u i iii. k 1 ' 1 mmmmm mm " '
Louis fair. He Is not particularly en
thusiastic over expositions, aa a rule, so
far aa they relate to the railroad busi
ness, but he thinks there are special
reasons why eastern people may regard
II... 1..rthiiwt trtn favorably.
"The have had a pretty good filling up
with expositions ..lose eaatorn people
and they would not make the trip sim
ply to see the Lewis and Clark fair." he
said, "but the climatic and scenic beau
tlea of the Columbia river country will
provo a strong drawing card. I think

attractive tour, at a low rail rate, and
win K. .Ivan a chance to aee a very large

tions. I think It will be a strong propo
sition for tourists from the territory
east of Buffslo."
Mr. Jerome says the New Tork Central
lines have always been strong adver
tisers for Oregon. Washington and Cali
fornia. He makes the statement that
the New York Central does as much

any one of the transcontinental lines
entering Portland.
"This advertising will be Increased for
the exposition." he said. "We are al
ready uslna the fslr matter In our

At last In despair Everyman seeks

RENDERS OPINION FOR
THE FAIR COMMISSION

(Special Dtspatrb to "I he Journal.)
Salem, Dec. 8. The attorney-general
yesterday, replying to a question of the
Lewis and Clark fair commission. In
formed the commission that It waa

conferences on education and religion,
the relation of labor to capital, munici

prehending an exhibition of the moral.
Intellectual and social activity which are
not otherwise represented and within the
provision of the act authorising the

The attorney-general decides that the
scope of the exposition sha.1 be fixed by
the l,ewls and ciarx exposition, subject
to the approval of the commission. The
attorney-general also says that "the
word art Is used In the act under con
sideration and In Its broadest and moat
comprehenalve sense, and In the light of
the definitions of the word it certainly
Includes the subjects of education, re
ligion, political economy, science of gov

a liberal arts building It naturally fol
lows that It has ine power to take up
such features aa go to make up the lib

He then says that "for the foregoing
reasons I am of the opinion that the

tion to provide for holding the several
conferences hereinbefore mentioned and
that the same are within the purview of

Justice Court at Salem Finds
Mann Guilty of Crime of
Larceny by Bailee.
(Special DU patch to The Journal I
Salem, Dec. 8. In anawer to a ques
tion submitted by President W. H.
Downing of the Oregon state board of
agriculture, as to the right of the board
to Issue a 80-day liquor license In view
of the fact that Chemawa precinct had
gone "dry" in the late election, Attorney
Oeneral Crawford yesterday afternoon
handed down an opinion. After citing
numeroua autborltiea he says in part:
"The state board of agriculture can
Issue license to sell only durtng the
time the fair Is being held and not to
exceed 30 days In any one year, and from
that fact and the fact that the fair la
conducted by the atate through a board
of commissioners duly provided ror. i
am of the opinion that the voters of the
state did not have in rabid the atate
board of agriculture when they voted
local option, and If so, then In the light
of the authorities above cited, the board
may Issue license to sell liquor, 'malt,

Benders a Decree.
In the case of Llllenthal Bros, against
Mike Kepplnger, Sarah Thornsbury and
Albert H. Thornsbury, Judge Galloway
rendered a decree at the afternoon sea
slon of court yesterday, the caae having
been tried November laat. By hla de
cision Judge Galloway not only sustains
a hop contract, but paases upon oiner
Important law questions. From the
statement of the caae given hy the
court In rendering the declalon It ap
pears that in December, 1908, Mike Kep
plnger signed two contracts with
Llllenthal Bros., by the terms of which
he agreed to grow and deliver to them
20 000 pounda of hops In each of the
years 104 and 105 at the price of 18
cents for 1804 and 14 cents for 1808, the
hops to be grown upon land belonging to
Sarah Thomabury. It further appeared
that in 1801 Mike Kepplnger had secured
from Sarah Thornsbury the promise of a
36-acre hopyard to run for three yeara
and that he had caused a written lease
to be drawn and had gone Into posses
sion of the yard and had run the same
during 1903 and up to the time the hop
contract was signed In December of that
year, but Sarah Thornsbury had never
signed the written leaae.
It further appeared that In January.
1904, ss soon as Sarah Thornsbury
learned that Mike Kepplnger had signed
a two-year contract for his hops, she In
formed him that he could no longer
have the yard and he gave It up and
notified Llllenthal Bros, that he could
not fill hla contracts.
It seems, however, that Sarah Thorns
bury permitted Mike Kepplnger to cul
tivate the hops up to picking time of
August, 1904. and then turned the yard
over to A. H. Thornsbury. paying K.ep
plnger 820 an acre for his work, and A
H. Thornsbury harvested the hops. Soon
nfter harvest Llllenthal Urns sued both
Thornaburys and Kepplnger and en
joined the removal of the hops from
the yards, alleging that they were all
working together to defeat the contract
By his decision Judge Galloway sus
tains the validity of the contract; holds
Kepplnger had no right to give up the
hopyard when ordered to do so by Sarah
Thomabury, but should have forced her
to give him the yard for the year 1904
The court also holds that It was not
neceasary for Llllenthal Bros, to pay the
purchase price of the hops Into court
In the way of a tender, and ordered a de
cree prepared allowing Llllenthal Bros,
to select IO.vjO pounds of hops from the
38.000 pounds rslsed upon the yard. In
accordance with their contract. It waa
admitted at the trial that the hops are
worth 31 cents, or 18 cents more than
contract price, or a pick up of 38,000 for
