Portland, May 6.— Edward Hugh Mar­
tin, former artillery officer, expert in
coast defense armament, graduate of
West Point, company commander in the
Cuban campaign, son of wealthy parents
—and a drug fiend. That is the znan
arrested by the police early yesterday
afternoon for the brutal murder of Na­
than Wolff and the pilfering of Wolff's
pawnshop on First street last Friday
night.
The police were looking for a man of
the thug type, low browed, vicious and
a criminal with a record. The nature
of the atrocious murder compelled such
a picture of the perpetrator. They
found a man of high education, good
connections— and many weakness grow­
ing out of the use of cocaine and mor­
phine.
Formidable circumstances point an
unwavering finger of accusation at Mar­
tin. He denies his guilt. With all the
resources of a man of education and of
mental resources he evades the verbal
traps that are laid for him by the au­
thorities. The story he tells is coher­
ent and connected. But several of the
statements whereby he might hope to
base his claims to innocence have bees
refuted. His mental resources are not
great enough to overcome the barrier of
circumstances. The police say he is
guilty. They say they will prove he is
guilty. There is, of course, the slender
chance that he is not.

Dallas.—The first school picnic in
Polk County for the year will be held
at Rickreall, Saturday, May 16. J. II.
Ackerman, superintendent of public in­
struction. and George H. Himes, of Port
land, will be the prineipal speakers.
Tho afternoon will be given over to
sports and games. The committee on
arrangements is under tho direct super­
vision of Superintendent H. C. Seymour,
of Dallas, county school superintendent.
The principal attraction of the day will
be the unveiling of a suitable monu­
ment to mark the site of the first school
opened in Polk County. This historic
spot is on the road between Dallas and
Rickreall, and about half a mile west
of the latter place. The first school was
opened in the spring of 1845, with J. E.
Lyle, a former Polk County pioneer,
now' deceased, as teacher. Mrs. Jose­
phine Boyle, one of the first students,
will unveil the monument. George H.
Himes will deliver an address at the
unveiling, dealing with early Oregon
history. Rickreall, known in early
years as “ Dixie,” was the home of
Colonel J. W. Nesmith, former Indian
fighter and politician. The house in
which he died still stands about half a
mile east of this old and historic town.

known dead, many missing and 13 seri­
ously injured is the result of a fire that
destroyed the new Avelina Hotel, Fort
Wayne’s principal hostelry, Sunday.
Chief of Police Anckeubruck said
that he believes 20 bodies were still in
the ruins.
The entire interior of the building is
a smoldering heap of ruins, and how
many dead are concealed beneath the
debris can only be conjectured. The
hotel register was consumed by fire, and
there are no accurate means of deter
mining who are missing.
The complete destruction of the in
terior of the hotel makes the work of
recovering bodies a difficult task. A
confused heap of charred wood, bricks
and twisted girders is piled up be
tween the bare walls to tho second
story. Piece by piece this must be re­
moved before the roll of the dead can
be completed. Some of the bodies
taken out are mangled and charred be­
yond recognition.
Infantry Company D and Battery D
of the National Guard are on duty, and
aiding the fire and police forces to clear
away the debris.
The hotel was erected 50 years ago,
and the woodwork was dry as tinder.
It burned like matchwood, and within a
few minutes from the time the fire was
discovered the whole of the hotel was a
mass of flames that filled the corridors
and rooms with suffocating clouds of
smoke that laid fiery barriers across all
means of escape save by the windows.

children and the distinguished pre­
lates who have been participating

The prelates in their gorgeous robes
