OREGON MM FOR HR'S BOUT choice nn to please THE FASTIDIOUS EMPEROR Shipment of Oregon Lumber to be Made to Hamburg Spars for Em peror William's New Pleasure Yacht, to Be Sent from Oregon Mill Agent of Hamburg Com panic Now in Portland Shipment Will Reach 1,000,000 Peer Per Year. Arrangements whereby the well known lumber interests of the Sohsts of Hamburg are to be represented in Portland and regular shipments of Oregon dressed lumber to Germany from now on were completed yes terday, says the Oregon Sunday Jour nal. O. W. Gates & Co., are to be the gents in Portland of the Sohst fam ily, the business of which has been banded down several generations. The Sohsts first engaged In the lum ber business In Germany in 1833. Walter H. Sohst of Hamburg, who b&s been selecting spars for the pri rate yacht of the emperor now In course of construction, is at the Hotel Portland. Mr. Sohst has been in Portland sev eral days and during his stay here he completed all the arrangements for the lumber interests of Germany which he represents to have agents In Portland to attend to the com pany's business. About 1.000,000 feet of tUte finest dressed lumber that Oregon produces will be shipped an nually to the Sohsts in Hamburg. The lumber is to be used in ship build ing Oregon Lumber in Yacht. The yacht of the Kaiser II Is to be one of the finest m the world. It will have 12 spars, each of which la to be 120 feet in length. Contracts for this part of the kaiser's new ves sel have already been let by Mr. , Sohst. In all, 20 of the finest spars that ever crossed the Atlantic will be sent The extra number above those actually required for the yacht have been arranged for by Mr. Sohst so that there would be additional ones on hand should it be found necessary to have a call for them. "It is quality that we want, not quantity," Mr. Sohst said last even ing at the Portland, "and on this ac count I came to Oregon for lumber. "The dressed lumber that we are to ship from Portland is to be first class in every particular. We use it for deck and other shipbuilding pur poses. For many years we have been getting lumber for our business In the south but the kind that we must have s about all cleared out. On this ac count we decided some time ago to make arrangements In Portland to have our interests represented by reg ular agents. "We shall not use lumber in great amounts at first, but the timber that we shall use Is to be nothing but the finest. We consider the lumber of Oregon as good as any in the world. "Incidentally, I may say that I like Portland better than any other city In the country. The fact that from now on lumber Is to be sent direct to Germany from Portland, which means practically that a new field is being opened up for the industry which has mad Oregon famous throughout the world, is a good ad vertiscment for this part of the coun try." Mr. Sohst also thinks favorably of Vancouver, B. C. He leaves Portland this evening. The lumber shipments for the Sohsts throusrh G. W. Gates & Co. of Portland will begin In the near future and will continue from time to time, Increasing as the German shipbuild ers see fit to order more. It is quite probable that much of the first shipment tf Oregon lumber thrtt Is to be sent to Hamburg will be used in the construction of the em peror's private yacht swora 66 1 0,000 TATIFMER1 T Acres f Apples Ontario, Ore., April 28, 1908.

Later descrip tions and telfgrams received at the Office of the I'nlted States marshal In this city from the authorities In Tel lowstone park Indicate that the nervy fcandlt who held up a dozen or mors stages filled with tourists traveling through the park, Is none other than William Blnkley, who a couple of winter, ago gave great trouble to (he state game warden and forest rangers by persisting In daring hunting. Blnkley was arrested and convict ed of the Illegal killing of game In Idaho, and was later arrested and convicted before the federal authori ties In the park for the illegal kill ing of game there, and was confined In the guard house, from which he escaped nearly a year ago. Blnkley was very active In killing elk for their teeth and with a com panion named Purdy operated back and forth across the Wyoming-Idaho line, for a long time evading the offi cers, although working mostly on foot or snowshoes. In spite of the vigilant search for Blnkley in the park and the patrollng of the tralls'leadtr.g out of It, he wa never apprehended, and it Is now pointed out that probably no man has a better knowledge of the trails and routes and hiding places In the big wonderland than the tusk hunter. He had also ample opportunity to become acquainted with the habits and movements of tourists and ot the location of the guards, patrols and numbers of the troops, so that If Me la the mysterious holdup he doubtless had chosen well the time and place for his robberies and had his way of escape well laid out. The man who held up the 16 stage In the park was afoot, and for this reason It was expected his capture would be easy, but If the fugitive Is Binkley the fact that he once es caped from the park guard would make It easier for him to make his escape now, A description of the outlaw receiv ed today tallies to a large extent with Blnkley, the outlaw being described as a man of about 40, five feet eight In height, stocklly built and weighing about 150 pounds, with stubbly gray whiskers and sandy hair turning gray. He wore a brown or cream shirt, probably khaki, high black shoes, a soft felt hat and carried a smokeless rifle and an automatic pistol. He spoke with a rasping German accent, arid In this respect the description differs from that of the Jackson Hole hunter. The transportation compa nles have Increased the reward to $1000, which with $300 offered by the government, makes $1300 In all. a sore throat. He Is doing nicely, but three of his brothers and sisters died In three days from the effects of the terrible scourge. They were:. George, aged 12; Mabel, aged 8, and a younger boy 5 years of age. There are at present two others In the fam ily down with the disease. Dr. W. T. Schwabland called In a doctor from Nlghthawk In consultation and they both claim that it Is not diphtheria. While the symptoms In the beginning are similar, the results are different under the anti-toxin treatment NKW DISEASE PUZZLES DOCTORS Orovllle, Sept. 3. There seems to be a new and very fatal disease among young people going the rounds In On ville. A few days ago Arthur Grath wohl, a 17-yearold boy, died. The doctor says that he was cured of the disease, but he died suddenly, the malady affecting the heart. His sis ter, Mrs. Emma Grathwohl, who, dur ing the time of her brother's sickness was acting as assltant in the postof- fice, was the next to be taken, but she Is recovering rapidly. About the same time that Arthur died, Donald MacComber, the boy who was In the recent gun accident, complained of SENATOR MITCHELL'S FIXE REMITTED BY GOVERNMENT The fine of $1000 Imposed upon the late Senator John Mitchell, In addi tion to a brief term of Imprisonment, July 25, 1905, upon his conviction of having acted as private attorney for Puter and others before the depart ments while serving as United States senator, need never be paid. United States Circuit Judge Wolverton hand ed down a decision to this effect this morning. Mitchell appealed his case to the supreme court on a writ of error, and while It was still pending before that cort, he died. The appeal was, there fore, dismissed without further hear ing or proceedings had, upon motion of his attorneys. Consequently the government, through the district at torney, presented a claim to the ad ministrator of Mitchell's estate for the amount of the fine, together with ac crued Interest. The administrator came before the court with a motion to have the proceedings abated and the fine cancelled. In his decision rendered this morn ing, jHdge Wolverton says: "The sole question for considera tion Is whether the cause abated by the decease of the defendant, so that the government Is not now entitled to receive or recover the fine Imposd from the deceased's estate. "Imprisonment In Its general sense Is the restraint of one's liberty and Is personal to the -accused. It Is a thing self-evident, therefore, that the death of a person upon whom such a judgment Is Imposed would put an end to an Infliction or enforcement of the punishment. A fine being a pecuniary punishment Imposed upon the per son, It would seem that -a like result would follow. "In passing Judgment, whether of Imprisonment or fine, it Is the pur pose of the court and the law that the accused be personally punished, for the amendment of his life and of his deportment In the future, and to deter others from committing like offenses. "I am of the view, therefore, that by the death of Senator Mitchell the cause abated entirely, so that no en forcement of the payment of the fine can be made out of his estate. "The judgment of the court will be that the entire cause Is abated and that the fine Imposed Is not a sub sisting claim or demand against the estate of the deceased." ' Catholic Woman, Orator.

An action to recover MS.fiOO from the Northern Pacific has been begun In district court by the Rlchey & Gilbert Co. of Washington state.
