St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 28. Both the
house of bishops and the house of dep
uties will go into executive session to
day to select five new Protestant Epis
copal bishops. The bishops began their
session early while the deputies are
holding off until late today. If there
is to be any personal political fight in
the conference of the chursh that will
most likely crop out today when the
missionary bishops are. chosen.
The deputies derided on the late hour
oi convening to give the upper house
ample time in which to send its selec
tions to the lower uodv for concurrence.
Clergv of the church no longer need
warn sick persons to mako their wills
if the upper house concurs in a reso
lution passed by the deputies. The op
position to the clergy advising their
communicants legally on ' making of
their testaments was led bv Francis A.
Lewis, noted Philadelphia lawyer.

PLAYER. HELD ELIBIBLE
Friday night of Salem Week, which is
next week, tho management of the Ho
tel Marion will throw open the big
building for the inspection of the pub-
lie. There will be music nnd refresh
ments from 8 until 10. At this time,
also, the annex recently completed is to
be formally opened, 'although it has
been in use at least partly for a month.
Members of the Oregon Hotel Men's
association have already signified their
Inton;,,.! nf Kni.,.. naUA..i I'..:.!.,..
It was Manager Miller's intention at j
the outset to have a banquet and dance i
but, because of Salem Week, he wishes I
Snlcm people to visit the hostelry and
see how a first class cstublishmejit is
conducted. ' ' j
Tho Hotel Marion is one of the sue-
cessful enterprises of the city. Not far j
from 1150,000 is invested in the plant 1
and equipment- Surely this is an in- j
vestment which belongs to the entiro
city and which deserves the support of
every citizen. It i one of the things
which will make Salem greater.
That such nn undertaking can be car
ried on successfully is, in itself, ample
proof of the city's prosperity. The
building of the new 40,000 annex with
41 rooms was forced because of incrcas-1
ing prosperity. .
Do you believe in Snlcm? Do you be
lieve in its future Take tho Marion
for example. The company that oior
ates it is made up of hard headed busi
ness men men of large interests. Their
belief in the city and its future impelled
them to spend a good sized bundle of,'
money to provide better accommoda
tions for the trnveling public. Of course
this will return to the investors ns a.
result of tho good times now knocking
nt the door. But the Marion company
didn't wait for this prosperity; they
did something to"bring it about.
Salem Week, which the Hotel Marion
company has selected in which to show
tho public an establishment -of which nil
may be justly proud, is dedicated to the
work of .bringing the individual into
harmony with the Commercial club and
all organizations working to make the
city bigger, better nnd busier and insure
an era of substantial prosperity.
Don't you believe you ought to do
something to improve the city in which
you make your home nnd in which you
earn your living t You can do a small
amount of good alone. You can do your
best and do it without wasted effort
when you line up with the men who
have organized solely for the purpose of
making the Capital City a better pluce
to live in. a
A commercial club is one of the best
tools ever devised for helping a citv

en a new chapter in the history of crime
rivaling the most gripping Sherlock
Holmes fiction, is being studied in the
case of Benton L. Barrett, aged farmer,
who voluntorily confessed to beating
to death his wife and her 17-ycar-old
stepson.
Detectives of the district attorney's
office are seeking to answer these questions:
Is Barrett lust now emerging from a
hypnotic spell?
Are Mrs. a. I.. Barrett and her sou
Bavmond Wright really dcadf
Or are they bidden out in some seclud
ed place beyond the beaten track of af
fairs!
Why were the crunched up bones
found on the Barrett farm those of a
laboratory skeleton, not of freshly
killed humans, as anatomists insist I
It has been hinted by W. Ona Morton.
Barrett's attorney, that the defense will
try to prove Barrett was under a hyp
notic spell, from which he is just re
covering, and that he has really con
fessed to a crime of which b is innocent-District
Attorney Woolwine said to
day that he will have an expert alien
kt examine the man again.
It is pointed out that aside from the
prisoner's own hazy and contradictory
confession, there is nothing but circum
stantial evidence to prove he is actually
a slayer.
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
lis, Or., OcL HI That Johnny Parsons,
sensational University of Oregon half
back, who has been protested by the
University of Washington, is eligible to
compete is the belief of Dean A. B.
Cordley, of the Oregon Agricultural
College, who is a member of the ad
visory committee of tho Pacific Coast
Intercollegiate Conference.
Dean Cordley bases his opinion on the
fact that tho clause under which Coach
Dobie is protesting Parsons lias a foot
note attached which says that the rul
ing shall not be retroactive, and the
Oregon Aggie faculty member con
strues this as applying to the entire
clause and not To a part of it only.
Inasmuch as the advisory committee
settles all matters pertaining to dig
it is unlikely that the protest
