Portland ruKT Gets Joe Blakely Mixed With Sheriff Chlldera. Joe Blakely. deputy sheriff, has been the victim of mistaken Identity and today he has been heavily "losh ed" by the others In the sheriffs of- nce. In last evening's Portland Journal appeared a story describing how Deputy Blakely had passed through Portland, en route for Salem with George Miller, a most desperate char acter. According to the Portland story the prisoner wore an Oregon boot and in addition was adorned with handcuffs and while waltinar for the Salem train to depart he was locked up In the county Jail for safe keeping. In writing the story the Journal re porter confused the Umatilla county deputy with Sheriff Chllders of La Grande for It was the Union countv sheriff that had Miller In custodv But at the same time Blakeley was In Portland bound for Salem with McCoy and Erlcson, the two young men who robbed the Furnish ware house. They were mild youn men and were not put in irons bv the den uty sheriff, who like many other of fleers takes a pride in handling pris oners without humiliating them with too much .hardware. But in view of the notorletv he wm given by the Portland paper it has been hard for Joe to convince the others in the office that he did not make use of the boot and handcuffs Men Wlm Clrcnliite Them Go Free Iteeaiuw of No Law.

NEIMEIJ S Hi GREfl T E FFICU A summary of the results of "sur prise tests" on the lines of the Union Pacific and Southern Pacific railroad for the month of March shows an effi ciency percentage of 98.8 for the en glnemen. During the month 1258 tests were made. These tests are part of the general scheme for Insuring safe travel on the Harrlman lines. The Installation of automatic block signals has progress ed to such an extent that there are more miles of track equipped with "automatics" on the Union Pacific- Southern Pacific system now than on any other railroad system In the world. Recently a training school car was fitted out, to move from one point to another for the Instruction of em ployes. Officials of long experience explain the various kinds of signals and safety devises to the men, who are taught how to operate them In the proper manner. The "surprise tests" consist of flashing all kinds of signals upon un suspecting englnemen. At dozens of I places, at all times ot the day and night, the tests are made. They must be obeyed absolutely, else severe dis cipline will be meted out. Running past a danger, signal means dismissal for the culprit. In the March testa the small number of violations, amounting to about 1 per cent, were not of the kind that might have caus ed serious accidents. Eighteen kinds of regular signals were employed, besides "specials." They Included torpedoes, fusees, stop flags, reversed lights, extinguished lights, semaphore arms at danger and lantern and hand signals. It Is not only occasionally that these tests are conducted, but every month and every week in the year. It Is now an established brancn of the rail roads' activity. Responsible officials do the work and carefully tabulate the results. Thus every englneman's record for carefulness Is ready at hand. The benefits of the block sig nals and the elaborate tests are easily apparent In the reduced number of accidents.
