J. W. Maruney, president of tho Sa

water system for the city, bringing
water from Clear lake. He believed that

2,000,000, to be secured by tho voting
of bonds.

Reports of the Southern Pacific com
pany to tho public service commission
concerning the car shortage states that
there is a total shortage of 2005 ears
on the division north of Ashland. This
is a slight decrease from the report of
October 17. The general increase in the
seriousness of the shortage -is shown
by the report of October 2, which states
that then there were 1437 cars short.
Articles of incorporation of tho John

general conditions good and that a cam

resulted satisfactorily. He reported that
it has been difficult to got district
boards interested in standardization
of their schools but with the splendid

TOTHE
Episcopal Delegates Tackle
What Cleveland Called an
"Innocuous Deseutude"
St. Louis, Mo., Oct.. 19. The . im
portant divorce question in the Protest
ant Episcopal church conference, which
was killed in the house of deputies last
Saturday, may again be brought before
the ruling bodies of the conference. It
wag learned today that the house of
bishops, the "senate" of the church
legislative body, in secret session dur
ing the night, had practically decided
to bring the question before the bishops
for action.
The proposed new canon, which was
defeated last week, would have prohibit
ed the marriage of any persons who had
been a party to a divorce for any cause
whatever. The present canon permits
the marriage "o'f the innocent" party
of a divorce decree. The present law
was ruled in order for at least three
more years by the deputies when th lay
men in body refused to concur with the
clerical members. The proposed canon
was defeated after a two day debate.
It was said the canon may be taken
up by the bishops because the lower
house has not officially notified the up
per branch of its actioa last week. This
brings it up as unfinished business. It
is thought the question will be voted on
some time next week.
If the house of bishops passes the
resolution for a new canon, it will be
sent back to the deputies for concur
rence. Its fate in the lower house is
not known, but some of the "pro" cam
paigners said they hnd a better chance
to ge it through than last week.
The defeut of the question Saturday
was attributed to the fiery speech o'f
the Rev. Melish, of Brooklyn, who ar
raigned wealthy couples, who, tiring of
their mates, were divorced and remar
ried. He said he favored the canon if
it would affect only these persons, but
opposed it because it would also prevent
the remarriage of women who had been
abandoned by their husbands. Brook
lyn's socialist minister could not be
found this morning, but his friends say
he would undoubtedly again be lined
up against its passage.

the officers she saw a man in the house,
nnd that the up stairs was lighted up.
She told the officers she went to the
door and that she found the glass brok
en which fact frightened her. Then she
said the light up-stairs was snapped
off.
It is the belief of (lie chief of police
that this job was also done by James
Murray, the escnped trusty from the
peuitentinry, as this house is located
only a short distance from that of K. V.
McNeeham, on Mission street.
Mrs. R. W. Shields, wife of an Amity,
Ore., barber, had an interesting time in
Salem yesterday. So did the chief of
police, and so did E. T. Barnes of the
Barnes Cash store and the manager of
Woolworths Ten cent store. All this
because Mrs. Shields drew checks on
what she termed was a joint account of
Iter's and her husband's in the Amity
bank.
E. T. Barnes cashed two checks, one
for $25 and one for $15, and then found
that the bank at Amity would not honor
them. He was also informed that Mrs.
Shields had no account with the Amity
bnnk. Woolworth'B also cashed a
check amounting to $4.35. Altogether
she cashed checks amounting to nearly
$45.
Chief of Police Welsh, who had met
Mrs. Shields earlier in the day when
she entered a vigorous protest against
the way in which the O. C. T. company
conducted their boats in leaving earlier
than they said they would, was notified '
by Mr. Barnes that her checks would not
bo honored in Amity. She was taken '
into custody and, bundles of purchases j
and all, she was taken to the police
station, where she gave highly-colored
specimens of her vocabulary free rein.
She protested volubly and in pictur
esque language that did not falter at:
strong words that she was not doing any
wrong, and that she had a right to write
checks on her joint-account. She was
sore at everything, and smiled and
frowned and berated her husband, the
city, nnd everybody with lighteniiig-like
rapidity of change.
She declared her actions in cashing
the checks and buying all the articles
was under the advice of attorneys. She
said her husband well, she was excit
ed and her opinion will not be repeated.
She offered to give her note to Mr
Barnes for 30 days but he could not ac
cept it. She berated him also and when
she called tip her husband at Amity she
started in to give him a red-hot tirade,
which caused the telephone operator to
cut her off to protect the wires. Chief
Welsh-told her that sort of stuff would
not get her anywhere, and she wanted
to know what they would have her do.
Mr. Barnes wanted his goods back,
and she began to tear the bundles open
and throw suspenders, neckties, socks,
combs, silks, buttons, shoes, and other
articles of wearing apparel out of the
packages. She took off her hat, pulled
combs from her hair,"and piled them up
to be checked. Then it was found she
had $31.50 from Mr. Barnes. By this
