The Cuiprit is Very Sick and VIII Resist
Extradition.
LONDON, Jan, 20 DIR. Cornelius Herr
was arrested at midnight on demand
of the French government, on the
charge Of having been fraudulently i'm
plicated in the Panama ewindling and
corruption. The detectives assigned to
make the arrest went about their work
very cautiously, as, although it was re-
ported that Herr was sick, it was
thought from his previous record, both
in America and France. he might be
shammiDg illness, and would take an
opportunity to escape. L was known
that Herr was at the Tankerville hotel,
Bournemoutb. Arriving there, the de-
tectives were informed that Herr was
too ill to be seen, but they insisted and
followed the porter 10 the door. Mrs.
Herz responded to the knock and after
some parley the detectives an
nounced their official character
and insisted on being admitted to
the outer room, Mrs. Herr retiring
to her husbands sleeping apartment
She came out in few moments. Her
face showed signs of great agitation She

said: "Gentlemen. DR. Herr is too ill to
get up. You ara welcome to go in and
see for yourselves"
The detectives entered the sleeping
room. Herz was in bed. He had iust
been propped up with pillows by his
wife. His face looked pale and wasted
his eyee we're euuken, and he bore every
sign of being very sick man. II know
your business. gentlemen. he said, in
weak tones, as if it was Difficult for him
to talk. ''You see my condition; | am
willing to go with you if it is possible for
me 10 be m wed "
The detectives looked at the man and
concluded it would not be proper to take
further action without medical advice.
The doctor who had been attending
Herr WAS called in. He declared that
Herr was in such a serious condition
hat he could only he removed at immi
neDt peril of his life, and from present
appearances it would be Impossible to
rem We him for some time. The de-
tectvee telegraphed this statement TO
London they we're told to remain
with the prisoner, bur take no action
toward his removal without further in
struetions The detectives took turns
at watching, one remaining near the
ick man, whiIe the other found what
rec he could within easy call
Herz notwithstanding his illness, has
made energet C preparations to contest
the Effort to extrad tie him to France
He has retained Mr. Lewis, we'll
known solicitor, and Sir Edward Clarke
and Mr. Gull are council in the case
Some surprise is expressed that Herr
should now prepare to contest extradi-
ton to the last point, when before his
arrest he professed his readiness to sur
render.

he GAINED HIS FREEDOM.
But Has Lost the Affections Of his
Wife Forever.

To the following record in the Office
Of the executive hangs q bit of tale:
w. w. Ward, who was sentenced to
a term Of three years aud four months
in the penitentiary for assault with a
dangerous weapon In Clatsop county
was granted full pardon by Governor
PennOyer on recommendation of the
judge and jury that tried him.
Mrs. Ward has labored incessantly to
procure pardon for her husband. She
has travelled to procure testimony, la
bored with officers and courts, and at
last achieved her triumph, when she
secured the pardon papers and was
driven In hack to the prison.
She handed Ward the pardon
through the bars of the state prison
and said in a cool voice:
"That sets you free. But I never
want to see your face again." She
turned almost fsinting, rushed out Of
the prison to a carriage, and was driven
to Turner just In time to catch the
train. Ward boarded the same train at
Salem for the East.
Mrs. Ward Is fine looking woman
and his sentence was the result Of a
shooting affair over Mrs. Ward.

A Scene FROM REAL LIFE.
Divorce szis, Lawyer, Woman Some
Money, Etc.

These we're the component parts Of =
domestic tragedy. one act Of which was
carried out At the Southern Pacific pas
senger depot this morning. The par
ties arrived yesterday on the California
overland and bought tickets for Port
land. The two men, one an elderly
lawyer, the other a young man who
looked as II he had been monkeying
with several distinct species Of buzz
saw, the matrimonial one included, got
into the forward seats Of the smoker.
The woman climbed into the rear
seat Of the day coach. The parties in
repose seemed 70 want to get as far
apart as possible. In action the wom-
an shadowed the men very closely.
She was solid looking brunette, with
a battle-axe style Of nose, rather band
some, inclined to embonpoint and 8
hustler generally.
They would not talk oBly among
themselves. A reporter asked him If
he was an architect bidding on the re-
form school. He was not. He looked
as if he would like to own an interest
In penitentiary and have the say as to
who should be put into 1t.
The woman was unapproachable to
a reporter, By worming among hotel
runners, porters, expressmen, and de
pot lOafers it was learned the blond
young man dressed in stylish brown
clothes had been engaged in several al
terations with the pretty determined
looking woman ia blue. They hac
been married two years. He had con
siderable money. Wanted q divorce
She would not let him go without 1
share Of his pile. He called her a de
signing woman. The lawyer, she said
was for separating them. She seemed
a match for both.
The woman evidently was fighting
her battle singlehanded against q law
yer and q discarded husband with ,
pile of money. 1t is to be hoped sh'
will prove q match for the three wors
things woman ever had to contenC
with when united against her.

Color In the Worlds Fair Buildings.


The choice of an "off white" for the
basis of the decorative plan of the fair
was in the last degree feicitous-prima-
rily because it offers the best field for
the animating wizardry of the sun and
because it shows to the best advantage
the beauties of architectural and sculp-
tural ornament with which the build
ings have been enriched, but also be-
cause it gives better relief than any other
tone could give to the floating gonfalons
on the cornices, to the turf, to the floral
decorations everywhere, to the vegeta-
ton in the lagoon and finally to the
stream of pedestrians which moves cease
lessly beneath the shadow Of the NAM
moth buildings.
Just because it does give such strong
relief to any darker tints coming into
contact with it, it is important for such
of the latter as are comprehended in the
painted decoration to be manipulated
with taste. 1 think they have been, in
the main, in the buildings on the Court
of Honor. In that one of them, for exam
pie, which stands as the head and front
Of the exhibition-the Administration
building-the glimpses of color caught
between the columns of the loggia in the
second stage of the composition are of
character to heighten perceptibly the ef-
feet of the tonal scheme and yet remain
in the subordinate position which be-
longs to the recessed walls on which the
decoration is laid. This wall is painted
q dull red.
Seen from the ground, the roof of the
lcggia throws deep shadow behind the
columns supporting it, but so large in
scale is the building that even at dis
tance the color actually counts and is as
distinct a factor in the beauty of the
structure as are the white surfaces from
the ground to the wall above the loggia
or the gilded splendor which thence up
to the crown of the dome is the most
dazzling mark on the horizon.

that the city engineer and city attor-
ney prepare plans and specifications
and also give notice that Center street
will be improved from the east side of
Commercial street to the eastern boun-
Diary Of the city. Albert moved an
amendment that High street from Mill
on the north Of State street, be included.
LAHORE thought that the property b Id
ers on Center street could not
stand the improvement owing to the
present stringency. Others claimed
that the city was into , the street work
aud that not only Center but Other
streets should be improved. If the
Center street people do Rot want the
charge all they bave to do is TO get ur
a remonstrance to that effect, with al
least one-half Of the names of the res
i1ents along that highway appearing
there. That will stop further pro
ess, according to the new char
ter. Again, If the improvement is
done any property holder thereon, If be
feels so disposed, can allow his assess
ment to run six years by simply pay
ing the interest at 6 per cent per an
/ num.

enter into contract with Archie Ma

for SS, 1895 was reported favorably by

Senator stanfOrd's Regard For His Horses.
In employing men to work at Palo
Alto the late senator gave them the most
strict orders. They were told never to
strike, kick or whip horse, and his in.
structions TO his men were: ALWAYS do
q thing little better than anybody else,
and you will succeed. When you han
die horse, treat him little better than
any one else. When you breed horse,
breed him to little better stock each
time"
1t was in this way that Stanford revo-
lutionized the horse breeding of thec coun-
try. He never allowed one of his men TO
i'll use horse, and they knew it. There
is never noise or blows around the Palo
Alto stables, and the horses are never
frightened. To show his feeling toward
his horses the late Henry vrooman once
told Of an occurrence when he was din
ing with Senator Stanford. Just after
the dinner one of the drivers insisted
that he must see the senator. He was
ushered in, with blood over his face.

distinction was not made between in-

Most OF the bank failures in Oregon,
that were not national banks, have
been incorporated banking companies,
where the liability is limited to the
stock Of the company. That was the
case with Ried's at Portland, the Ger
vais and Sheridan banks, (not New

where liability extends to all the prop
