Residents along the Mount Scott car

matter before the state railroad commis

Nome, Alaska, Oct. 28 In a sensa
tional suit for divorce filed here against
Edward R. Dunn, the wealthy Alaska
mlneowner and an extensive property-
owner In Seattle. Luella 8. Dunn, who
claims to have married Dunn at sea In
1 899, charges her husband with bigamy
and with threatening to shoot her on
several ocacsions. Previous to the fil
ing of the suit Dunn and a woman who
was entered on the passenger list as
Mrs. Runn took passage to Seattle on!
the steamer President, and as far as
is known no papers have yet been served
on the millionaire miner.
The plaintiff 'claims that after her
marriage with Dunn she lived with him
for a year and a half and then gained
from him the admission that under the
name of x.a rianson ne nau iormeny
Two men were made happy in the
I'nlted States district court this morn
ing when "Toots" Bryant and Louis
Smith, who were charged with receiving
i stolen property in the Scllwood and St.
Johns postoffice robbery canes, were
set at liberty by Julge Wolverton.
These men pleaded guilty to the charge
and testified as to having Innocently
taken stamps which were secured by
Anderson and Wayne, both of whom are
now serving terms at McNeil's Island.
Since arrested nine months ago both Brv
ant and Smith hava been In the county
jail.
Assistant United States Attorney
James Cole recommended that the men
be deslt with leniently, as It was owing
to their testimony that the others
were convicted.
Multnomah county schools show a
heavy increased attendance at the end
or the first month of the school
over the same period last year, accord
ing to a report compiled In the county
school superintendents office, which
states that the total enrollment Is 2,361,
or about 2C0 more than last year.
The exact Increase cannot be learned
becauae of the fact that the Lents
school has been taken under the city
supervision. Iast year this school hud
an attendance of 3 SO. which was In
cluded in the county enrollment, making
loiai oi i.iSi. Adding 3H0 to this
year's figures would give an attendance
of 2,741. Indicating a growth of more
than 0. It is safe to assume that the
Increase at Lents over last year Is about
10 per cent, which would make the in
creaae of the county schools about 2r0.
Another factor which makes It diffi
cult to determine the exact attendance
at the Multnomah schools I the recent
method adopted of reporting the attend
ance in the Joint districts. Heretofore
all the students were renorted from
these districts, but this year the
i authorities have adopted the plan of
having the enrollment reported to the
counties from which the students come.
There are II Joint districts In which
students attend school in Multnomah
county, and their attendance is reported
to the counties in which they live
Had these students been reported to
the Multnomah county officials the en
rollment for this county would have
been even larger than shown in the report.

John F. Watts demonstrated his pu
gilistic prowess this morning by handing
a right hook In the Jaw of J. L. Green,
a deputy game warden, when the latter
attempted to put him under arrest for
having more than the legal number of
ducks In his possession. Now Watts
says he Is going to aue Oreen to recover
four duck which he says Oreen took
from him for evidence and also damages
for false arrest. I'p to this time, how
ever, the suit tiffs not been filed.

he had been down on Sauvlea' Island
over Sunday hunting ducks with Charles
Gardner, He started back to Portland
yesterday evenlna. brlnalmr with him HI
ducks which he says hud been shot by
both Gardner and himself. Watts ssys
that Oreen asked him where he was go
ing with the ducks; where he shot them.
He told Oretfh, so Watts says, that
Gardner .had helped him to make the
kill and had aaked him to bring the
whole number to the city.
Green then told Watts, so the latter
VS. that he Intended to Ink the birds
because there kere more than 60 In his
possession, that being the largest num
ber allowed bv law. Then (Jreen said
he would not take all but would keep
four for evidence, says Watts.
According to Watts' story. Green
came to his office thla mernlng, but
said he had decided not to arrest him
for having too manv ducks, but would
just keep the four which he had taken
the day before. Watta says he de
manded the birds and told Green that
he would sue him for them. He then
went to the courthouse and here, he
says, Oreen took hold of him and told
him he was under arrest.
Thereupon." says Mr. Wstts. "I
knocked him down.
Watts says he Is o-olnr to have hla
four birds back and that In order to
get them he Is going to sue Green not
only for them or their value, but for
damages for false arrest.
