A t 11:80 o ’clock Tuesday night
H arry M into, superintendent of
the Oregon penitentiary, was
shot and killed a lew miles north
ot Albany, by O tto Hooker, an
escaped convict.
A few hours earlier Hooker
had shot and perhaps fatally
wounded J. J. Benson, city mar-
shal o f Jefferson.
After H ooker bad shot M ar­
s h a l B e n s o n , Superintendent
M into started directly for A l­
bany to bead o ff the fugitive
convict. Returning north from
Albany in company w ith Guard
Johnson, be came upon Hooker.
M into and the convict opened
fire a t about the same time,
M into using a shotgun and the
convict a revolver.
A bullet hit M into in the head,
killing him instantly. Hooker
escaped amid a hail o f shots fired
by Guard Johnson. H ooker evi
dently was not hit. He was
seen an hour later near Millers-
ville station, some distance south
o f Jefferson.
The officer- shot by Hooker at
Jefferson is dangerously wound­
ed and m ay die.
H ooker escaped from the pris­
on work gang M onday near the
prison. He was serving time
for burglary, having been sen­
tenced from Um atilla county a
prisoner and was not considered
desperate.
The gun w ith which Hooker
killed M into had been taken from
M arshal Benson a t Jefferson, the
convict having shot the officer
while they were scuffling.^
On Tuesday night Hooker was
located under a house in Albany,
and was shot and killed by aq
officer named Long from Port
land.
Hooker was sent up from Pen
dleton for burglary. He came to
Oregon from Wichita, Kansas.
He gave his age as 21, but was
thought to be older.

In to o many homes they keep

canned up like th e, fruit down
cellar. They have a hundred
cans o f peaches and a hundred
cans o f cherries and a hundred
cans o f tom atoes. They never
open a can except when compa­
ny comes. The peaches “ w ork,”
the cherries “ bust” and the
tom atoes eat the tin o ff the can.
They have to throw it all aw ay
because they didn’t uncan it
sooner. So in these homes the
love kept canned up to o long
spoils. The love you keep is the
love you uncan. L e t’s uncan!
W hatever happens to you,
never sympathize w ith yourself.
There’s hope for you so long as
the other people do the sym­

ers she was placed in charge of
the dep irtm ent o f work for na­
tional constitutional prohibition..
When Mrs. Booker, president
o f Oregon W. C. T. U., died in
March, 1914, Mrs. Kemp re­
sponded to the call to return to
Oregon as campaign manager
for the W. C. T. U. in the “ Ore­
gon Dry” campaign. The organ­
ization was an effective force in
the campaign which gave a ma­
jo rity vote o f 36,480 for state
w ide prohibition. In October,
1914, Mrs. Kemp was elected
president o f the Oregon W. C. T .
U. She is a wise and tactful
leader, an untiring worker and a
woman of broad vision.

thropic work Mrs. Kem p’s alma
mater, Baker University, Kan­
sas, has conferred upon her the
honorary degree o f M. A.
