A. E. Clark, in speaking in behalf of Dr. Coe, who was In court surrounded by his three sons, slated that in Ms belief most of the trouble was due the expensive dwelling house erected by the doctor several years ago. Mr. Coe. it was stated, promised to construct the house to gratify the wishes of his wife, but made $20,000 as the limit of expenditure on the dwelling. The alleged vagaries of Mrs. Coe In changing details of the construction necessitating the acqulstion of addition al lots to navo some shade trees, and other items brought the price up to $15. 000 for the lot and over $50,000 for the house itself. Mr. Clark stated $1000 alone was spent on glass pillars In which to houue goldfish. It was statfd that Mrs. Coe saw the pillars in Daven port's restaurant In Spokane and that to procure duplicates the doctor had to send to Germany.

Although the boys had often been ar rested for petty offenses, the mother had been kept in Ignorance of her chil dren's downfall, and the shock which followed the exposure in court waa hard or the woman to bear. The boys had written their mother many times that they were doing well, and when they were arrested recently by Detectives Maloney, Coleman and Snow, they telegraphed her. Out of funds and friendless they had been un able to find any one here who would aJd them. The court allowed the mother to take the boys with her to San Francisco, where she promised honorable employ ment would be found for them.

From this the imperial black eagle of Germany became the coat of arms of Portland's Hofbrau-Quelle. That warlike bird appears on the red and black furniture, walls, blue banners pendant from red -curved antique oak ceiling beams and even, on themiassiye black clock that is a model of the old town hall clock at Heidelberg. Herr Klein is critical. 'His decorator visited the Rhine and was the guest of a German Baron in his castle. He brought home to Portland the blue pen nants of the Baron, the red, black and blue color scheme, with a combination of all the best ideas of old baronial castles. The Hofbrau-Quelle-'s pictures are marvelous copies of famous Rembrandts and Vandykes that hang in the Louvre and the Royal Art Gallery in Munich. Long has Portland's Hofbrau under Otto Klein's management been famous for A Cuisine Par Excellence and especially its German cookery.
