Sixty-four years ago, "In Tippecanoe

Clark stood in the back yard of his
father's house and saw, a quarter of a
mile away, the start of the wagon train
that was taking Ell Olds, his T-ycer-pM
friend.; out upon the Oregon trail. Yes-
terday afternoon the two "boys," both
over 70, met again for the first time Ih
64 years, compared notes . and found
that they; were the two friends . who

Leaving Mr. Olds In his office to rest,
Mr. Himes was again walking out into
the corridor when he saw another old
gentleman, also with ' a ! , very white
beard,- but ; taller and ;- somewhat
stralgljter than Mr. Olds. Not recog
nizing him, but guessing from his ap
pearance that he might have been an
early comer to Oregon, Mr. Himes spoke
to him and asked him if he was a pio
neer. The man said that he was not tn
Oregon,- it was his first visit to this
state, but that iie had ' gone to Cali
fornia. In 1 RKO. Ha was asked what Dart
of the country he had come from and
said Tippecanoe county, maiana.
Mr. Hlmes has lived In his museum

that he is inured to coincidences But
he thought this was a rather unusual

he was J P. Clark of Livermore. Ala

had gone a few miles would have not
only fresh butter but buttermilk to
drink." .. ..-
"And finer leader than those cows
a man never drew a whip over," broke
in old Mr. Olds excitedly. - "I ought to

of Tippecanoe county, Indiana, , and of

the winter of 1844-6 there. The next

"tjeavs 20 In my care and I will so

Thus did J. I Matthews beguile a
shiny double eagle from the pocket of
Bruna Knoltnakl. who Is ' employed at
the Imperial hotel. .
Knollnski thought the "magnetising"
system something great Never before
had his money grown so rapidly. He
dreamed every night what he would do
with the $60. Yesterday he. called to

Matthews was gone, and the "magne
tizing" system seemed out of order. At
least Matthews had left Knollnski no

abode was In the Cosmos, Fourth and
Morrison streets, and according to the
landlady he did a splendid business with
the. "magnetizing" . dodge . for several
days before dropping from sight. .
: Matthews called himself a clairvoy
ant and palmist, and not. until the last
few days of his visit in Portland did
he use the new phase" -of necromancy.
It Is understood that he swindled 170

"magnetising" money ao that it multi
plied three-fold.

That he threw the dishes on the floor
because he said . the cupboard did ' not
smell good and that he rolled a pan
of flour over the floor In a fit of ec
centric anger, are some tf the Incidents
narrated by Mrs. Minnie L. Boone as to
the conduct of her husband, Henry J.
Boone. She told her troubles to Judge
Gantenbeln this morning, this being
the regular day for unshackling the
mlsmated victims of Cupid's mistakes.
Mrs. Boone put the blame on Demon
Alcohol. She said that after she had
been married about three years her hus
band began to drink to excess. He
grew worse and worse, until finally he
would not be sober for . more than 10
days at a time. She said that he spends
much of his time In the jug, and sh
was not sure whether he is in or out
at present. She was , married In 1890
and has not lived with her- husband, for
about six years. The divorce was grant
ed. ' ..''I '( ;
Although her husband 'makes " 15 or
$ per day as a stonecutter, Mrs. Jo
sephine Manning testified that verv
little , of the cash ever came Into her
hands. She was married to Edwin O.
Manning in August, 1895, but she had
worked to clothe herself ever since, situ
said, and only two garments were pur
chased by the father of their daugh
ter, now 12 years of age. Yet. sava
the .wife, hubby grumbled because the
gir was not better clothed. Mrs. Man
ning said she did not know what her
husband did with the money he earned.
But she was sure she did not get It.
The attraction of drink was greater
than that of his wife for Henry Marck
wardt, according td the testimony of
Mrs. Lena Marckwardt. She was mar
ried early last October, and the day
after. Christmas Mrs. Marckwardt de
cided she had enough, and left. She
said that ne abused her-and got drunk

municipal court this morning. "It was
evidently the purpose of the framers
of the law to protect the unsuspecting
from rakers ana mounteoanks, and no
narrow construction of the law should
be placed upon It.", , "
Larson, who callsrhtmself "the man of
teleconl," was arrested for practicing

F. Martin appeared for him, and read
the decision of an Ohio court in a sim
ilar case, the Oh la law being fhe same
as that of Oregon, . The deputy -district

making an exception in favor of Larson,
