PORTLAND, Aug. 10.-Under date of
Boston. August 9Th, the following dis
patch was received here:
"a man about 65 years old, who is
booked at police headquarters as An
drew G. Highton, was arrested today
for passing worthless checks. Highton
tells some conflicting stories. among
them that he belongs in Portland, Ore,
Denver, Colo, and Baker City, Ore. He
says he is one-fifth owner of the Orna-
ment and Surprise mine on Green horn
mountain, Grant county, Ore, and
is In Boston to secure capital
with which to work the mine.
The police think their prisoner is
an old-time forger and spurious check
utterer. Highton called at the Ma
tional City bank and offered for deposit
draft for $4,000, drawn on N.
Clarnel, of Seattle. WASH, who.
he says, is one half owner in
the mine. When he presented the draft
he told the cashier that he did not want
it collected until the last of the month.
The bank promised to accommodate him
in this respect, but informed him that
he would not be given any money until
the bank had sent the draft west for
collection"
About three months ago Highton
came to Portland. He bonded the Orn.
ament and Surprise mine in Grant
county and went to Colorado by way oil
San Francisco to secure 20.stamp mill
to put in the mine. He claims to be a
brother of United States District At.

HER LAST HALF YEAR.
Chicago Woman Who Is Passing the FL

A Chicago Woman Who Is Passing the Fl.
nal Six Months OF Her Life Royalty.
Heroes do not always die on BATTLE
fields. We all know that, but now and
then the truth of the statement is ex-
emplifled in a manner that is forceful.
One evening there came into the room
where l sat q beautiful woman taste
fully attired Her eyes We're unnatural
ly brilliant, and in her cheeks there
famed color like stain of blood. ]
recognized her at once as we'll known
and highly successful teacher in one OF
Chicago's public schools. There was
something about her appearance that
surprised me, for heretofore upon the
occasions when we had met she had been
notable for the plainness, not to say the
shabbiness, of her attire. The rich vel
vet of the cape she wore and the feath-
ers ON her elegant hat caused me to ex-
claim:
"Why, how handsome you look
What have you struck"
"Death!" was the answer. "The doc
tors have told me today that have an
incurable disease and cannot possibly
live longer than six months have
scrimped myself all my life to save
money to buy books and cultivate my
mind. am through with all that.
Now am going to take hand at the
material pleasures. If have but half
year to live, I'll live royalty"
Since that time she has wasted rapid
ly, but the room where she lies is full of
flowers and objects of beauty. Tho
gowns she wears are creations of beauty,
and she allows no mourning nor any al
fusion to her fate i'll her presence. She
faces death with an absolute heroism
that makes one want to applaud rather
than to weep. This manifestation is
not so grand as the manifestation Of
moral courage might be, but there is
something about it which makes the
blood Jingle bit. Chicago Herald.
