The conception which many peo
ple have of a successful Christmas is
buying a twenty-five cent present
which looks as if it might have cost a
dollar. If the writer had a single
friend who looked at the value, and
not to the spirit in which a gift was
given, that trieud would cease to be
held as a friend as soon as this trait
in his character was discovered.

II GREEKS HELD
UPAKO ROBBED
Two Highwaymen Perpetrate
Bold Hold Up and Secure
Sum of 75 Cents.
CRIME COMMUTED NEAR
OLD C. & E. DEPOT.
Two Police Alarms Sounded
and Two Officers Were Hot
on Trails-Unsuccessful.
Two Greek section hands were held
up last night by two men east of the
old C. & E. depot and robbed of 75
. The highwaymen made a suc
cessful getaway, notwithstanding the
fact that two policemen were hot on
their trail shortly after the holdup was
perpetrated.
? robbery occurred shortly after
5 o'clock. Two police alarms were
sent in, which brought a quick re
sponse from Chief of Police Austin
and Policeman Griff King.
They immediately proceeded to the
:eno and after a protracted search
of the railroad yards, gave up the
chase. The matter was dropped for
'the time being and the officers re
turned to the city.
Shortly afterwards, the two Greeks
thoroughly excited and interestingly
in earnest rushed frantically into the
office of the Tebault Real Estate
Co. and asking for the use of the
phone called the officers again, in
arming them that they had seen the
highwaymen.
. The officers hurried again to the
depot and conducted another search
Unit were unsuccessful. However,
they came upon a camp of thirteen
hoboes southeast of the depot. The
officers approached the gang and com
manded them to stand up. A search
-.-as conducted but no clue to the rob
bery' was found. The officers then
commanded the hoboes to move on
at their earliest convenience, as they
were in the midst of a meal, cooked
foil and being eaten in the light of n
blazing camp fire.

Searching Party is Dragging
Calapooia River for Body
of W. E. Greene.
DISAPPEARED MYSTERIOUS
LY WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON ,
Was Last Seen at Brownsville
Horses and Demolished
Buggy Found in Road.
According
to information received
the telephone at 9:50
nere over
o'clock this morning from Browns
ville, a party of searchers left there
this morning to search for the body
of W. E. Greene, salesman of the
Blakc-McFall Co. of Portland, who
:as been missing since early Wed
Wednesday night.
A representative of the Blake Mc
Fall Company has been detailed to
'.i the search. The searchers,
Hiding to the information received,
are working on the supposition tint
the Portland man drowned in the..
Calapooia river, the indications point
ing to this theory, after an accident.
His team and badly demolisntd bug
gy were found on the Craw! n-'isville
road about four miles above Browns-(-f
ville. J
According to the word receive !, the
axle broke under the buggy, appar
ently frightening the horses. It ap
peared that they started on a run.
swerving down a steep bank and in
to the river. The stream is quite
high at the present time and is run
ning in a swife current.
At four o'clock Wednesday after
noon Greene left Brownsville, driving
the team, for Crawfordsville and four
hours later his team and buggy were
found alongside the road. One wheel
was torn off of the buggy and one hue
was broken.
That Greene was seen in Browns
ville Wednesday night after the ac
cident, has been given up as a mis
take, in view of the fact that no e
'planation as to how he reached that
place after the accident has been se
cured and that the indications point
strongly to the belief that he drowned
in the river.
At a quarter to three o'clock this
afternoon, word was received over the
telephone from Brownsville, that the
searching party after dragging the riv
er all the morning for some distance
below the spot where the team plung- .
ed down to the river bank, has been
unsuccessful in the search. The
river is being dragged thoroughly and
the work is still in progress.
