Oregon Jones, who is 21 and "hard boiled," while in a pentltent mood led the officers to two caches of loot, and for the last week or ten days has been going out daily, under guard, to find another one, which so far he has been unable to locate. On these trips, Oregon is 'hobbled', his keepers tak ing no chance on a break for liberty, even though Jones refused to accom pany his brother and Kelly on their' dash, but instead ran to the home of Sheriff .Lewis to tell him of the get away. Oregon told the deputy sheriff that In his holdups, he only hit one vic tim, and that was Sprague Reigel of Gold Hill. Jones said Reigel "was trying to show off, and I cuffed him with a blackjack." One of these licks got Reigel on the head and he had a sore wrist from stopping the other, one,1 aimed at tbe same spot. Another time Jones and Kelly were going down tbe Pacific Highway to wards Grants Pass in a Ford car, when In the twilight they saw a car parked at the Ray Gold dam, contain ing a pair of roadside spooners. They heldup the couple and Jones described tho incident, "as tho funniest thing I ever saw in my life." This holdup was not reported to the authorities. In his comession -Jones says he stole a handgrip from a passenger coach belong to Jack Schrader of Ash land, a finger print expert, and founder of the Southern Oregon Iden tification Bureau. Jones catalogued this as a notable feat and in the pur ported confession turned over to Sher iff Terrill describes it as follows: "Will state that revolver used in this holdup was loaned to him by me. I got this. gun,, from a small black handgrip which I had stolen from a coach in train No.' 16 at Grants Pass several months before this night. This grip belonged to passenger brakeniau Jack Schrader who was a finger print expert. I just took' the gun and some small tools from the grip, then I threw the handgrip and contents in tho river about one mile south of Grants Pass station. The grip however did not go into the river as it caught on some brush." 5 Irishmen Kxceutcd. DUBLIN. Jan. 16.
