Insurance Investigations Have Turned tbe People Against, the Old Line Companies That Are Now Being Exposed New Company Will Have Capital Stock of $100,000 ami Will be Composed of Oregon Men En-Urely. men can be found who handle other people's money honestly, when paid for such a purpose, It ought to pros per. Local life Insurance men declare that the logical outcome of the In surance Investigations now being con ducted by the state of New York will be the formation of mutual compan ies on a small scale. In different parts of the country, and the complete over "uirow' of Ihv big; concerns which have robbed the peopie mercilessly. The Oregon Life Insurance con,"?" ny Is now being organised in Fort land, L. Samuels, formerly manager of the Equitable In this state, being the chief promoter. The capital stock of the new company Is to be 1 100.000 and some of the best busi ness men and financial managers of the state are now Interested In It. It proposes to organize on the mu tual plan, under strict state regula tion, and will furnish safe and relia ble Insurance at a cheaper rate than Is furnished by any of the old line companies and there will be no chance to defraud policy holders because the concern will be confined to Oregon and will be in fact, a state institution Mr. Samuels Is now In Salem solic iting- subscribers to the stock and Is meeting with great success and will soon visit eastern Oregon for the same purpose. The big companies are fighting the new scheme with all the means at their command, but the people are slow to believe any of the assurances of the old companies in the light of recent Investigations and the Oregon Life Insurance company promises to supplant most of the old concerns in this state. This state has been a prolific field for life insurance; 54,837,!21 was the amount of Insurance In force In Ore gon in 1S04. fhe amdiint of life insurance writ ten in Oregon in 1804 was $14,700,841. and the premiums collected for that year amounted to 1, 887, 994. Premiums collected for five years before this year, $6,723,103. The death losses paid were $1,722,924 for tbe same five years. Dividends paid $314,249. The total death losses and dlvidenli were $2.337.1. Net premiums sent out of Ciccon. after paying K..aes and dividends, five years, $1,855,937. It seems there Is a field for a life Insurance company In Oregon. If HAITISTS ARE PROSPEROUS. Nearly 10,000 Members Revolted in Oregon at the Eugene Conference. Oregon Baptists show extraordinary prosperity and growth. Among the reports of different departments pre sented during the meetings, the cor responding secretary, Leonard W Ri ley, showed the following: Thirty- eight missionaries appointed during the first year, and 70 churches and out-stations supplied by these; In these churches 384 baptisms are reported. There are now 122 churches in the state, with 9838 members. There were 1074 baptisms during the year. This number, taken with other addi tions, make a total gain of 201S for the year, but there have been some losses, which place the net gain at 1353. New churches have been organized at Hood River, Madras, Echo, Eagle Point. University Park and St. Johns. Four now churches have been, dedlcat--V mid five new parsonages secured. ST E 15 ROBBED PROPERTY TAKEN FROM THE ' GREAT EASTERN LAST NIGHT. Two Hundred Dollar' Worth of Cloth ing, Jewelry and Oilier Articles Entrance Effected Through an Up. I mt Hour Window Jewelry Was Taken From a Show Case Directly In Front of a Glass Door and Under the Electric Light No Money Was Taken. MANY UNCERTAINTIES. Some time last night the Great East ern Department store was entered through a rear window and robbed of about $200 worth of clothing, Jewelry and other articles. Evidently there was but one burglar In the plot, and he entered the store through one of the upper windows In the rear of the building. On one of the windows opening from the balcony the Iron fire door was not closed, and the man climbed to this by means of a ladder and then opened the window and en tered. This morning when the employes of the store came down to work they found the floor In the front littered with cards and paper from which Jew elry had been taken, and also some tags off clothing had been thrown about. The Jewelry was taken from two show cases In front, and one of them Is directly in front of the gloss door where the robber would be visible from the sidewalk. As the store Is well lighted at night. It Is surprising that the work was not noticed by some passing. Aside from the Jewelry a suit of clothes, an overcoat, hat, shirts und other articles of mou's attire were taken, the tags from the same being torn off and left on the floor. No money was taken, as none was left in the registers. No clew has yet been found to the burglar, although Marshal Coffmun thought for a time that he was on the track of the right man. No no tice was given the sheriff's office of the affair until 11 o'clock today, and thus those officers will be handicap ped, through the thief having plenty of time in which to leave town. Football at Portland and Raker City Somewhat Disorganized. Manuger Dean Goodman of the high school football team, received a let ter ycstenlay from the Baker City manager saying that his team hud dis banded for the Beason and would be unable to keep Its date with the Pen dleton eleven. However, luter In the day a message came, saying that ef forts were being made to kuep the team going, and that they might be ready for the game, after all. Also, some difficulty Is being had with the Portland high school eleven owing to the objections that aro being made by the professor In charge of the athletic work. However, the mut ter of a game with them at this place on Thanksgiving duy is still pending, and arrangements may yet be made for the meet, which promises to be the best one of the season here. MUCKER'S AWFUL EXPERIENCE. Strong Recommendation. Lewlston, Idaho, Oct. 11, 1905. To Whom It may Concern: During the past seven years 1 have been the Judge of the District Court of the Second Judicial District of the state of Idaho. During all of said period the bearer, Mr. George W. Coutts, has been a member of the bar of said court, practicing therein, and during two years of said period he was the State Prosecutor In said court. I most cheerfully vouch for his In-, tegrlty and ability and recommend him to those having need of the serv ices of an attorney. I particularly recommend his quali ties as a safe, conservative counsel or as one capable of advising those hav ing corporate or large business Inter ests to transact. He has a clear, con cise mind, and his executive ability is good. He is an able trial lawyer, and has conducted some of the most difficult of cases before me. Most respectfully, EDGAR C. STEELE. Judge Second District of Idaho. 'George W. Coutts has opened of fices In room 17, New Schmidt building:. KY JWr.LL TEAM. Bath Supplies What is more Invigorating to the system that a good bath?

The city Jail Is empty for the first time In a long while, and this morn ing there was not even a drunk to place inside the sacred walls to dispel the solitude. For several days past business has been dull In police court, and as a result Marshal Coffman has found difficulty In keep his hostelry filled. However, It is not thought likely that the Jail will remain vacant very long. To Inquire Into Weber' Death. b. E. Morgan, of Raker City, a brother-in-law of Harry J. Weber, whoi'e :-emalns were found near Ukiah this v?ek. came iown from Puke. City last evening to see that the re mains were given proper attention und to inquire Into the cause of the death of Weber. Burled by Comity. August Martin, the railroad labor er who died Wednesday at St. An thony's hospital, was buried by the county yesterday evening, no relatives having been located. Intention is to Organize With Dowrt-j town Mutcrlul. Last evening a meeting of locul foot ball enthusiasts was held In the rooms of the Commercial association for the purpose of discussing the matter of organizing a team In Pendleton this fall. Sentiment was found to he in favor of such a move, and at the meet ing Murk Moornouse wu w irmnairer of the team. Dan P.Smythe. coach, and H. Wilson, physical di rector of the gymnasium, as trainer. However. Mr. Mooihouse stated today that It would be Impossible for him to fill the position of manager, and that some one else will huve to be chosen. One of the principal reasons for de siring a town team Is to play a game with the high school eleven, and should the team be successfully organ ized a game will be arranged with the school boys for the near future. There are quite a number of veteran players In Pendleton, and It Is said that if they can be induced to don their togs once more, a strong, heavy team can be secured. However, many annear rather reluctant to go upon he gridiron again, and It is not known mhetnor or not tne move win ly successful. PLEASED WITH JALISCO. Raulstone and Bickers Will Stay by Their Investments. John Raulstone, of this county, who h been at Jalisco. Mexico, for some months past, has returned to tne United States and was In Portland yesterdav. He will come up tonigm or tomorrow for a visit with his pa rents near Adams. While nt Jalisco Mr. Raulstone and H. E. Bickers have been associated In land business, and will both return to that country after a visit here. Mr. Riekers is now In Son Francisco. For a time the two men figured on. estab lishlng an Ice plant at Jalisco, but did not carry out the plan. Mr. Raulstone speaks highly of the country and of the Jalisco enterprise, According to him thousands of peo pie have been there during the sum mer, though many have left without investing lii anything. However, he believes that the place will be a sue cess, and that those who huve gotten In esrly will make some money, Shot Through Body, Lies In Cold 21 Hours. Albert Hucker, the young man acci dentally shot last Mondoy by his com ponlon, Ross Greene, while the two were out hunting In Timber canyon neur Durkee, was brought to the Ba ker City sanitorluni lost night - for treatment. He Is 111 a very precarious condition and small hopes are enter tained for his recovery. This morning Dr. May performed an operation on him to remove the bullet, and the re sult of this will tell In a great meas ure whether he will recover or not. Hucker was shot with a .44 Win chester rifle through the abdomen. As soon as young Greene saw what he had done he hastened to the nearest lumber camp and procured assistance to remove the boy to Durkee, his home. The rescuers started out, but when they arrived in the vicinity of where Hucker was supposed to be, they could not find the spot. All duy Monday and that night the searchers scoured the woods vainly endeavoring to discover the whereabouts of the wounded boy but only succeeded in finding him the next morning. By this time Hucker was almost dead from hte loss of blood, and the severe cold had frozen both feet. Sev eral times the searchers hud passed within 10 feet of the place where he lay, but was too weak to cry for help or uttiact their attention. After finding him he had to be brought 14 miles to Durkee, which rough trip in his condition ulmost killed him. Had it not been for his uncommonly strong constitution he would probably have died on the way. Both of the boys are well known ami liked In Durkee. and the sad ac cident hus caused the utmost grief in that community.
