Hell No Penitentiary
The Almighty's scheme of punishment differs entirely
'from that in vogue in Oregon, according to the Rev. Billy
' Sunday, who as chief devil chaser is a recognized authority
upon hell and its penalties. Here the idea of reformation of
the sinner has largely replaced that of punishing him, but
according to Mr. Sunday, fire and brimstone continue to
make existence miserable for the damned in the hopeless
hereafter.
Rev. Sunday is very much in earnest about it, too. We
read in the Portland papers of his
Hurrying his words with mac-hiuc-gun rapidity, not stopping cveu
while his audience thundered its applause; lie hammered the pulpit,
stood on it, lay on it; stamped about the platform, whirled agiley
around on one leg the other poised at about the level of his neek,
jumped, gesticulated, executed a home plate slide across the entire
width of the platform, and wounil up, standing with one foot on a
chair and the oilier alongside of the Bible on the ranting desk, with
hand upraised, appealing to men.
But to get back to hell, a subject everyone should be inter
ested in, because most people are more or less frequently
consigned there, this prison of eternity has little in common
with the penitentiary of today, for according to Mr. Sunday,
hell isn't fitted up as a modern club-house. Evidently
gambling, merrawanna smoking, baseball games and radio
concerts are tabooed. lie says :
God didn't make hell for you to be comfortable in. Penalties, my
friends were not made to conform to tlio comforts of tho criminal.
No! No! That isn't It at all! You think you might he happy In a
"llell whore they had carpola on the floor, electric lights, electric fans,
water and lemonade, Icy lemonade that you suck through a straw,
liavo the daily papers anil periodicals. Well, It Isn't filled up that
way, take it from me.
The Rev. Sunday is a firm believer in the orthodox hell,
the best description of which, reads;
Hell is ft bolting, seething bottomless pit
Where poor damned sinners forovor sit.
And broil, and stew nnd bake and fry,
Gnawed by the worms Ihat never die!
It is from this fate that Billy Sunday is trying to save
Portland, including Mayor Baker and the Oregonian, and we
hope they put up money enough at least for their own
salvation.

asked that the jury be shown the

The defense further contended
that one of the "bull pen" guards
"has a mania for taking human

and that this guard did without
cause at one time shoot and kill
one James Ogle, a convict con
fined to (he "bull pen." Also that
the convicts In general were in

this guard.
The contention was made such

After an exteu.fjd conference In
tho judge's chambers between the
opposing attorneys and Judge
Percy It. Kelly, Judge Kelly allow
ed the request of the defense over
the protest of the prosecution.
The contention of the state was
that such a defense as outlined by
.Mr. King was not admissible in1
court Inasmuch as an attempt to
escape from prison Is classified as
a crime by statute In Oregon. Dis
trict Attorney Carson contended
that the recognition of such a plea
by the court would open the way
der Is necessary for escape with
"Justification."
The state also contended that
the request of the defense, If grant
ed, would inject an lrrevalent issue
into the case, and that the present
or condition of the "bull pen" had
no valid bearing upon the com
mission of the crime with which
Murray Is charged. In all, ten aped
no points bearing out these op
jections were submitted by , the
state.
No sooner had the selection of
the jurymen been completed yes
terday afternoon and the jury
sworn in than sentimental women
led by the example set by Mur
ray's sister began to flock around
the defendant. The court was at
ease and the Judge and attorneys
were conferring over the program
of procedure.
Mrs. Nettie Sherman of Jeffer
son was the twelfth juror select
ed, and her final acceptance com.
pleted the exhaustion . of the sec
ond jury venire called for the
case. Her name was the last of
the fifty special veniremen left
in the box. As it was sworn in
the jury consists of three women
and nine men. The other two wo
men are Mrs. Maggie Ramsey of
Silverton and Mrs. Bertha M. King
of Sublimity.
The nine men are Theo. Mlnden
of East Stayton, Homer P. Cleve
land of Liberty, L. P. Judson of
Salom Heights. Harry B. Carpenter
of Llvesley, Adolph Bom beck of
Salem, Adam Burns of Salem,
George Karrell of Brooks, Edward
H. Hummel of Liberty ond Jacob
Bingman of Gervais.
Three prospective jurors were
excused from service during the
afternoon session on pleas of de

convicts, since boyhood, had de
termlned ideas as to what should
be done to Murray, and said so.
"I know what I would do to those
fellows who go around murdering
good people," Herron said In reply
to a question by the defense,
Walter Skclton, whose house was
robbed by trusties who escaped
from tho prison, George A. Miller
and Charles Epptey were others
excused for having preconceived
opinions.
John W. Gamble, who had serv
cd six years as a guard at the
prison and who was employed there
at the time of the famous Tracey-
Morrill break In 1302, was remov
ed from the jury box by pe renin
tory challenge of the defense, but
