The North ern Brewery company la directly charged In aiv. answer just filed In the circuit court with promising Thomas Niekles, saloonkeeper at 31 North Fourth street, with protection In case he violated any of the city liquor laws. Nickles sets .forth that an agent of the brewery in duced him to grant the brewery a power of attorney over the llcense. setting forth that In case the saloonkeeper should get Into trouble the brewery would be able1 to keep tlje license from being revoked by the city council. The suit will also offer a legal contest over the right of a brewery to hold a power of attorney over a Baloon. Nickles al leges the power of attorney was given when he mortgaged the saloon. When he offered to pay off the debt, it Is al leged, the browery wanted (2500 for the return of the power of attorney. Attorney William Reld represents Nickles. QUOTH THE PESSIMIST "At any rate there'd be plenty o' op portunity, irf th' west for some gink with- er vest pocket, folding umbrella Invention.". .: To Consider Annual Budget The ways and means committee of the city council has decided to bold two special meetings December 18 and 19 to con sider the mayor's annual budget and to recommend to the council the annual tax levy. It Is probable that the rec ommendations of the committee will not differ materially with those of the mayor, which are based on a levy of (.8 mills. The ordinance fixing the levy must be passed by the council before the first of the year. The committee Instructed City Engineer Hurlburt to remove the old steel and concrete pier that has been obstructing the channel of the river near tho Morrison street bridge for four years. This sunken ob stacle has caused much damage to passing boats and the federal govern ment has threatened legal action to force the city to remove the obstruction. Sentenced to Prison, Harry Lee Hughes, a typewriter salesman, who was . charged with a statutory offense against a 14-year-old girl, pleaded guilty Tues day afternoon In tho circuit court and was sentenced to serve a sentence In the state prison ranging from 1 to 10 years. The .prosecution was by the Juvenile court department Hughes expressed his thanks to Judge Gatens for giving the lighter sentence, as the penalty for such an offense carries a sentence of 20 years lu the penitentiary. "Don't thank me." said the judge. "Thank your wife. If it was not for her I would have given you the limit." Hughes was arrested one Sunday evening upon his return home from attending the Gipsy Smith revival meeting. The 14-year-old girl said Hughes met her in the woods near her home last June and committed the offense. Southern Pacific train No. 19, at the Mllwaukle street crossing about o'clock this morning. The horse was killed and Beshears received Injuries to his leg. Beshears asserts that no warning was given of the approaching train either by the bell at the crossing or the bell on the engine. Must Prove Themselves Pitted All persons wishing to be appointed admin istrators, executors or guardians by the county ' court will bo required, after January 1 to present themselves before the court This order was made this morning by County Judge Cleeton to allow the court an opportunity . to In quire into their qualifications. Hereto fore the attorney for the eetate under probate has merely asked for the ap pointment of a certain administrator, executor or : guardian. The court has taken ttie word of the attorney and al lowed the appointment. In many cases administrators have been appointed that were unable to read or write the Eng lish language, and thoroughly Incom petent, to act for the estate. Cbee Sot Widow Plans are being made by the members of the Portland police department to provide Christmas cheer for Mrs.' Glttings, of 72 West Humboldt street, the widow of Patrol man John Glttings, who was shot an killed two years ago In a street fight In Lower Alblna. Since the death of the patrolman the members of the de partment have practically supported the woman and her four children, who were left destitute at the death of the hus band. Just what the assistance and cheer will be has not been decided, but It Is assured that help will be given to pay up assessments against the home which the patrolmen secured for Mrs. Glttings and the children. Two Claim Insurance. Two women are claiming the life insurance of Ed ward Cummlngs in the circuit court. Each' woman claims to have been his wife. One woman goes by the name of Evelyn M. Cummlngs and the other by the name of Sophia J. Cummlngs. Sophia J. Cummlngs declares she was never divorced from him, and that Evelyn M. Is not his legal wife, te whom he was married after deserting his first wife. The Mutual Benefit Life Insurant company took the contro versy Into the circuit court today In a suit to determine who is entitled to the 12000 Insurance. Cummlngs was killed August 22 In an accident Personal Taxes. The work of collect ing delinquent personal taxes was tak en up yesterday morning by Deputy Sheriff Holllngsworth. The taxes due the county aggregate about $16,000, and two deputy sheriffs were given tax statements and Instructed to serve these upon the persons who have failed to pay their annual Installments. A few weeks ago, the sheriff's office compiled a list of all delinquents, and mailed a statement to the persons whose tax Is due. Many paid their tax, but others have refused to do so. Another list of those who failed to answer the first statements wnn nrpnured and turned over to the deputies to again serve no tice in person upon the persons delin quent This will b the last chance given, as levies can be made upon those who refuse to pay. Temporary Police Quarters, The plan , to establish temporary police headquar ters at Fifth and Everett streets has practically been abandoned by Chief of Police Slover and Commissioner Coffey, and as a substitute the chief is going to propose- to the mayor that the fire house and the small building between the police station and the fire house on Second street be razed at onca, one part of the new police headquarters built there and then occupied while the bal ance of the building is being erected. Housing City Prisoners. -Negotiations are under way between Mayor Rushlight and Sheriff Stevens whereby the mayor hopes to secure the extra space available In the new county Jail for the housing of city prisoners. Sher iff Stevens Is agreeable to the mayor's proposal, but he declares he wll not permit "drunks" to be. Incarcerated In the county penal domicile. For these space in some building In the North End will probably be rented. Mr. C. B.
