Miss Orth

Now in the Penitenitary
The parole of Miss Ora Orth, the
young woman who waa sentenced
about two months ago to from 1 to 10
years In tlio penitentiary for the crime
of grand larceny, was revoked today
by Judge Percy R. Kelly, in depart
ment No. 1 of the circuit court, and
the prisoner was committed to prison.
The revocation of her parole and
flnal Incarceration in the penitentiary

Immediately nfter the crime wan

one and lose the other, Deputy Sheriff

different sources, the deputy learned
that the couple were going to Portland

In Miss Orth and nuffin being followed
and arrested, while they were in the
act of boarding a North Bank train for
northern points,
A speedy Indictment was returned
and a conviction with equqal prompt
ness found. While the Jury charged
Puffin with larceny from the person,
It was inclined to be lenient with the
Orth girl, and, thinking the charge of
lesser gravity, found her guilty of

Premier Asquiqth the house of mm.
mons decided today to offer a rtrltlsh

United States Ambassador Whltelaw
Held to New York. Asnulth .mid
eloquent tribute to the dead American,

details of his father's funeral by wire

services will bo held at Westminster,
but no date for them has yet been set.
Immediately upon being Informed of
Ambassador field's death, King fleorge
dispatched an equerrry to Dorchester
House to express his condolence, and
sent the following cablegram to Presi
dent Tart:
"It is with the deepest sorrow that
I have to Inform you of the death of
Mr. Whltelaw field. As your ambas
sador to this country his loss will be
sincerely deplored, while iersonallv I
shall mourn for an old friend of many
years standing, for whom I had the
greatest respect, The queen mid I
sympathize most deeply with Mrs.
Reld In her heavy orrow."
EXPLAINS 1V1IY HIS
1VKIT1XG IS SO GOOD
"Why Is It that tho handwriting of
nearly all telegraph operators Is so
much alike?" Frank Holder, the vet
eran operator at the Western t'tilon
office was asked as his stout hand
wobbled on a telegram and produced
C : 30 p." and "paid" In characters
graceful enough, but by no means
models of chirographic execution when
one tried to decipher them.. In fact,
the characters were most fearfully and
wonderfully made.
Frank, who Is an observing chap,
replied:
There's a reason for it. In taking
messages off the wires It has always
been necessary for operators to write
fast. Of course, the "mUl" (which In
telegraph and newspaper parlance
means typewriter) has eliminated
much handwriting, but tho telegraph
operator still has plenty of use for bis
hands. Time and experience has
shown that the speediest handwriting
is attained by putting a sort, of drag
motion Into the hand (and Frank gave
a demonstration) which produces a
half backhand effect Tho resem
blance you mention Is a result of tjie
drag and the back hand."
"But the comment I was going to
make was" began the Inquirer.
Frank chopped him off.
"Oh, I got you. Why Is the telegra
pher's handwriting always easy to
rend?" he anticipated, twirling bis
silken mustjichlos. "That's another
point. You see before the mills came
Into use, we had to write all mes
sages by hand. And when you take
stuff off the wire by band you've got to
make It legible." He emphasized the
"got."
"Of course the typewriters
have I
spoiled that to some extern mm most
of the younger boys are pretty punk
scribblers. We old-timers though are
atlll proud of our ability to write fast
and legibly."
The Inquiring par-y smiled and
look'-d far away.

the city and forced him to stay away
until today. Leslie Anderson, a vouth
oiari is accused or wrong

today. Anderson left the city Just be.
fore his turn to take the stand came,
because, as he declared, Attorney
Hume, representing Start, stopped him
on the street, and asked him In a loud

blackmail bis client. The boy says
the attitude of tho attorney was so
threatening that he II. si to I.lunton,
nearby, and would not return until as
cured by friends that there was noth

Anderson testified today that he had
sought treatment from Dr. Start for a
private ailment, and the assault took
place upon Dr. Start announcing him
cured.
