Was a Prominent Young Attorney of Milton His Act Puzzles His Many Friends Arrested In Huntington Clay Gordon, a young lawyer of Milton, was arrested In Huntington this morning on the charge of ob taining money under false pretenses. Wednesday afternoon ho came to Pendleton. He remained In town un til the evening train when he boarded tho west bound O. R. & N. and ap parently was trying to get out of the country as fast as possible. After coming to Pendleton, Gordan went to Dr. T. M. Henderson and tho doctor went with him to the Pen dleton Savings Bank to Identify him if it was necessary in order that Gor-. don might get a check for $45 cashed. This check was drawn on the bank of Milton whero Gordon had some money in the bank; not quite enough, however, to cover the check.

There has been an amicable settlement of the differences betwean the Salvation Army and the officials of the city. It was' proposed to hereafter give the army the freedom of the streets with the exception of the north side of Main street, between Seventh and Pnrthnrt NlBth streets. This was agreed to on ine part 01 xno army representa tives and the police officials. There has been a question raised as to the jurisdiction of the officers in restricting the ' army to any por tion ox the street. The officers, how ever, contend that the jurisdiction properly comes under the effect of Section 56, of the city ordinances This allows the chief of police to re move any person or persons remain ing In a stationary manner on a pub lie thoroughfare and obstructing or Impeding the free progress of pedes trianB or vehicles.

THE LEADING DRUGGISTS AND STATIONERS Disappointed in Yields. Word was received from Waltsburg this week that in some sections in that part of the country white barley has proved such a disappointment that ono farmer after heading and threshing about 10 acres and receiv ing only a few sacks of grain, aban doned the field, as it would not pay to head tho grain and thresh it. The reason for this is that the recent heavy wind, coming on after the grain was ripe, threshed most of it out. This is only true of fall-sown barley and the area this year is not large.

Gordon wrote tho doctor a check on the Mil ton bank covering the money borrow ed. He told him he wanted to buy some protestors for his buggy shafts as his driving horse was getting "frisky" and he was afraid tho anl mal would run .away. After Gordon had left town and Dr. Henderson found that ho had not !?ono back home, but had taken the. train the other way, he became un easy and placed the matter before District Attorney Hailey who had word sent to Huntington to arrest Gordon if ho came that way. ' In the meantime the bank wired Milton and found Gordon's account there about $15 short of the amount the $45 check called for. Gordon Is a very bright young man. He came to Milton about four months ago and located there to practice law. Ho made a- good Impression on all with whom he came in contact and made friends readily. He purchased some property there and made exten sive improvements thereon and was thought to be making money. He will be brought back from Hun tington tonight and will then have a cnance to explain jus peculiar ac Hons. His friends are puzzled over the affair and think Gordon may be able to straighten his affairs without serious complications. SKIRT FOR A BANK. And $2000 Went Up In 8mokc at Ba ker City. A lodging houso was totally do stroyed by fire Wednesday morning at Baker City. The occupants bare ly escaped with their lives, many of them losing their clothing and vain ables. Tho Raker City Democrat tells the following story of a woman who had $2000 sowed up in a skirt nnd lost it: "Tho most sensational, perhaps tho most unfortunate occurrence was tho loss of $2000 In greenbacks by Mrs. Gaunt, who owned the lodging houso. Mrs. Gaunt has a morbid fear of burg lars and also distrusts 'banks very much. She had by dint of close economy saved up nearly $2000 and she had tried various plans of con cealment. She is said to have kept It In tho sugar bowl; in tho clock; in the old blue teapot tho ono with tho nick In tho spout and finally as the best means, she sowed tho bills up In an underskirt After fighting the fire desperately for a spell, she thought of the money and started back to the burning building to se cure it. But tho blaze had gained too much headway and she fell in a faint, suffocated by tho flames, and was carried out In her husband's arms." To See Underground Railroad.

Eleven "Widowers" Feast at Hotel Pendleton Wednesday Night, and Pass Pleasant Evening. Eleven of Pendleton's most popu lar business men, whoso wives are spending the week at the sea shoro or in the mountains, took advantage of their wives' absence Wednesday night and had a grand time. It has been tho custom of the men of Pendleton to banquet themselves annuallly at some convenient time during the summer when their "bet ter halves" were away and Wednes day night those who were so fortu nate or unfortunate as 'to bo left in the city while their families were enjoying the mountain or sea breezes were out enmass . The "boys" say it Is a good way to drive away the blues. These occasions are not spent In rowdyism, as is often the case In some cities when wives are away, but are spent in a pleasant social way. It is more in tne nature or an intellectual feast than otherwise, and many bright things are said here by the men who are trying to throw off tho spirit of loneliness. Following were among tho number present last evening: Messrs. Hal ley, Cohen, Jones, Judd, Berkley, Borio, Fowler, Robinson, Brock, Hartman and Frazier. TIMBER BURNING.
