on authority today, despite the fact
that a naval court of inquiry held he

ELECTRIC MACHINE
FOR MAKING CHANGE!
Ladd Bush Bank Hat Machine That
Makes Change In Any Amount by
Merely Pressing a Button.
Newly invented, an electric chango
maker has a permanent place at the
Ladd t "Bush bank. Late yesterday
afternoon Henry Bohwer of Seattle,
the inventor, deposited the handsome
construction in cage No. 2, to be used
in making cha.igo by Roy Burton, pay
ing teller.
For four and one-half years the in
ventor worked to perfect this labor
saver. In the six months that the ma
chine has known publicity invitations
have comofrora England, Germany and
France to the inventor to construct a
machine -which can be used in those
countries to handlo their coins. Now it
is a distinctly American electric
changer. A spectator stepped to the
massive machine, pushed the current
button, the llil-dollnr button nnd the
iKt-eent button and instantly tho big
gold coins, silver dollars, halves, quar
ters and dimes, fell into the waiting
palm. The check for ninety-nine dol
lars and ninety-nine cents was paid by
electricity.
Dimes that are thin as tin pass
through tho machine without a slip.
The machine is mechanically perfect.
At the touch of a single button almost
any combination in even money can be
had by the operation of one key, while
any sum of money rrom one cent io
one liunureci uotinrs can
be
produced
with absolute accuracy by touching two
kevs.
The machine closely resembles n
huge cash register and weighs 217
pounds. Tho current of an oulinury
13-candlepowor electric lamp supplies
tho motive power. The mnchino can be
operated by either direct or alternat
ing current. Keyboards in various
pnrts of the institution can he used
independent of the machine, so that
it is possible to construct n mnchine
so that a keyboard operated in Salem
cbuld pay out money in Portland. One
correction button remedies all errors.
Tho machine, although now working
perfectly, has still greater possibilities.
Seattle has already adopted it in the
payroll department of the city trea
sury. Henry Kowher ;s the inventor ot
the marvellous machine. -

TWO TAKE PRISONER
F
Hired Man Assaults Daughter
of His Employer in
Baker County
PENALTY FOLLOWS
ON HEELS OF CRIME
"Mob" of Two Takes Him at
Point of Gun from Officer;
Deliberately Hang Him
Baker. Ore., July 17. Coroner West
arrived at Whitney about noon today
to hold au inquest over tho body of
the unidentified muu lynched Thursday
by two masked men following an at
tempted criminal assault ou Grace
llardman, tho eight year old daughter
of Bart llurdman, a rancher of Audrey.
The district attorney and two deputy
sheriff's were at Audrey today at
tempting to find a clue to the identity
of tho lynchers, but with slight chances
of success. Tho settlers of tho dis
trict aro in symputhy with them, ami
will not divulge any information that
might lead to their apprehension. It
was learned today that Tom Tureman,
another rancher, was with llardman
when the two masked men intercepted
him on tho highway and took possession
of the prisoner, at the points of re
volvers. Buker, Ore., July 17. Little hope was
entertained by Sheriff linnd of appre
hending the two masked men who seised
an unidentified muu, apparently a
tramp, being brought to Baker by J. B.
llardman, after he had confessed that
ho had attempted to criminally assault
llardman 's eight-year-old daughter,
Grace, and hung him to a tree in a
canyon between Whitney and Audrey,
in tho Upper Burnt river country.
So silently and methodically did the
grim avengers work thut not the least
clue to their identity was left behind.
Hardman and his prisoner were rid
ing on horseback towaid Whitney late
yestorday to entrain for Baknr, when
confronted by the masked men, similar
ly mounted. They secured possession of
the prisoner despite Hardman 's plead
ings that the law be allowed to take
its course, and galloped away.
Silent But Swift Work.
Reaching the lonely canyon, they
placed a rope about the man's neck,
threw ono end over the brancn of a
tall tree, tied his feet together so that
he could not struggle, strung him up
and then rode away.
It was believed the men who dis
pensed summary justice did so under
the impression that the man had suc
ceeded in his purpose. A rumor to this
effect had spread through the country
side, whero llardman is a prominent
and popular rancher.
The body was found by Deputy Sher
iff Jackson and Charles Nibley of
Whitney, but was left hanging until
Coroner West arrives on the scene some
ti mo today. It was believed an exam
ination of the man's pockets would re
veal his identity.
Tho man, a stranger in the vicinity,
was employed by Hardman Wednesday
Biorning. At noon he seized Hardman 's
young daughter and ran into a thicket.
Her cries brought assistance before she
was harmed, but the man escaped. He
was later captured and confessed.
