7r Tofc o Forget Tragedy in New Home
Grandparents Give Protecting
. Name of Walcott to Mother-
: less Babes Father Serving j
Life Sentence In Prison.
NATIONAL
The three minor children of George
; I Pepoon. who Is now serving a life
' sentence In the Washington prison for
. killing Ms wife In their little cabin
near Nortaport, Wash., were this morn
ing In the county court legally adopted
by their grand parents, Mr. and Mrs.
David Walcott of Portland. The names
of the children were changed to that of
their foster parents, and the youngest
child, a bright eyed girl of three years,
was given the name of her mother,
Edith..
, The consent of the convict father was
secured a few days ago, and certain pro
ceedings In the Juvenile court recently
decreed him to be a person unfit to have
the custody of the children on account
of his criminality. The children are
. Margaret, age 7 years; Janet, 6 years.
and Edith whose former name was
Georgian, t years.
v- It was the grandmother, Mrs. Walcott,
who was Instrumental In collecting the
evidenca against Pepoon and sending
him to prison for life. He was found
,. guilty of administering Mrs. Pepoon
poison, the motive being to collect a
11000 life Insurance policy, which mon
ey he did not receive and is now held
' up by the insurance company. A wom
an by the name of Maud Keller also f lg-
. ured In the. tragedy, as she was mar
ried to Pepoon soon after the death of
bis wife.
Mr. and Mrs. Walcott have had the
care of the three children since their
father's arrest 14 months ago. They are
happy In their new home, and hereafter
will go under the name of Walcott.
Their comfort and care Is of the bent.
snd the tragedy that made them parent
less has had the opposite effect.

Chairman Charles t Rf'jncs'
Arrives and does Into Con
ference With Party Leader
Relative to the Situation.
Portland will probably be selected as
the place for holding the national con
vention next June for the nomination
of a Prohibition candidate for president
of the" United States. It is under con
slderatlon with good prospects of vlO'
tory.
Charles R. Jones, chairman of the
national committee of the Prohibition
party, arrived in Portland shortly be
fore noon today and Immediately went
into consultation with Dr. Clarence
True Wilson. J. P. Newell. I B. Pagett
and other men prominent In' the party
COURT REFUSES TO
; APPOINT RECEIVER
, : That the courts snauld hesitate to .n--.
terfere with the affairs of a private cor-
poratlon . unless It Is insolvent or other
wise embarrassed, was the opinion of
Presiding Judge Kavanaugh of the cir
cuit court this mcrnlng in refusing to
- - appoint a receiver iu thu case brought
against ,the East Hood River Fruit com
pany. A. P. Batham brought the action,
and asked that receiver be named to
take charge of the affairs of the com
pany, as the stockholders are in a dead
lock and unable to agree upon business
policies.
Judge Kavanaugh t aid that the con-
, cent was not insolvent, or in any dan
; ger of becoming so. The chief troub'e,
' he announced, -was between Batham and
.: another stockholder by the name vt
Weber, in which the former claims it is
necessary to put a mortgage of 226,i00
on the bullness. while Weber advises
that part of the property be sold with
. which to raise the money.
The chief question, said the judge,
was to determine what right the court
had to Interfere n th mnnmmf fit
the concern. The evidence showed that
the company was In no danger of in
solvency, but on the other hand that It
Is in good standing, as the debts do not
exceed S26.000. while the property Is
f worm at least 1100.000. said the court
The East Hood River Fruit company
Is located near Moster, and one half the
stock Is controlled by Batham, while
me omer naif is controlled by Weber.

of Portland for the convention. This
afternoon Mr. Jones left for Seaside,
where he will hold a consultation of
similar character with T. 8. McDanleT,
another prominent worker In the tem
perance cause.
Mr. Jones, who Is from Chicago, stat
ed that his present tour is ostensibly
for the purpose of gleaning Informa
tion and data on cities that will come
up for consideration when the executive
board meets in Chicago, December 6, to
select a place for the national conven
tion to nominate a presidential candi
date. He expressed himself Immensely
pleased with Portland as a convention
city, and said that while he had not the
deciding vote, he felt he oould highly
recommend the Rose city.
The convention will be attended by
delegates from all states in the union
to the number of about 1000. Usually
they are accompanied by. about 4000
friends and prominent . temperance
workers, so that in reality the conven
tion will bring about (000 people to
the city.
"I am more than charmed with Port
land," said Mr. Jones, "and believe that
if the convention is held here it will
be attended by a large number of the
wealthier members of our party, for
they are interested in coming to the
coast to see the country and study op
portunities ror investments."

STATET VICE VERSA
Question of Paying for Care of
Paupers and Insane fs
A Cause of Dissension.'
Jacob Gould Schurman.
-- State Treasurer Thomas B. Kay thlg ,
morning - sent a bill of 1461 to the
county court of this county, which it
refusos to pay until the former official .
allows a bill of f520 the county holds '
against the state. The question li over'
the care of persons sent to the state
hospital for the insane, and the paupers
cared for by Multnomah county. '
The letter that the three members .of
the county court' wrote the state treas
urer upon receipt of his communica
tion inquiring why the county treasurer
had been ordered not- to pay the bill
of 34816, states that "it is nonsense to
expect .Multnomah county to secure the
signatures' of persons held as paupers. )
aar many of them cannot read or write, ;
and furthermore are unable to sign a
certificate that they are paupers." That
is why the state treasurer refused . to
pay the bounty's bill several months ago .
of $9620.
' The statute provides that the state
shal) pay all expenses of persons other
than residents of -Multnomah oounty..
The. county auditor checked . up th
number of persons so cared for, and
found the amount to total $8520. The
only record in many cases IS a note- '
Jtlpn on the books that the person was
sent to tne eounty, after being found to
be s, pauper. While there Is an act
providing that further memorandum
shall be kept, of such cases, this has
not been done until recently;
