Of Senator Teller, that the Republican

Edward Downs, a barber in the en-
ploy Of Charles Fuqua, was arrested by
Sheriff Houser on Sunday night within
q few minutes after he had psssed
forged check for $50 at the Hotel PEN
dletaD. The check was accepted oy
Night Clerk Hayes, who advanced
Downs S. on II. The clerk had no douht
as to the genuineness of the paper, or
II he had, It was dlspelled by the sight
Of customers draft on the First Ma
tional bank for S3465, which Downs
showed him. The draft bore what
purported to be the signature Of Sam
P. Sturgis, cashier of the bank.
Sheriff Houser was sitting in the
lobby OF the hotel, and when Downs
took his departure asked to be shown
the check. He failed to see any re-
semblance between the alleged sigma
ture Of Mr.. Sturgis on the paper and
the signature Of that gentleman
on other documents. This aroused
his suspicious. and he inquired
Of the bank officials whether Downs
had an account with the bank as he
asserted. Receiving negative reply,
he returned to the hotel and arrested
the forger. On the way to the county
jail Downs broke away and led the
sheriff and Deputy Sheriff Carney a
merry chase up Water street to Thomp-
500, down to Court, back towards
Water where he was headed of by
Mr.. Carney and down towards Alta.
Ou Thompson, between Court and
Alta, Deputy Carney fired three shots
In the ground, and the reports Of the
revolver had the effect Of bringing the
prisoner to halt. He was then laken
to the Ill.
Wren saai aiched, the draft for 1896 {,
and several forged checks were found
on Downs. The officers learned that
he pssse d two other forged checks, one
for $40 and one for IS, at Charles
Beale's nfectionery store, Downs
was arranged before Justice PArkes
yesterday, and was remanded to the
grand jury.
Downs was indicted by the grand
jury, arraigued before Judge Lowell,
and p'eading guilty, was sentenced
to two ypsrs in the penltentiary. All
this happened within twenty hours
after his arrest.-Pendleton Tribune.

difficult TO distinguish the trestle, and

ankle and the knee.
The Car soon returned from the asy-
lum, and with yell DIR. Shaw sue

able as possible, and then started dowR
town. Mrs. Murphy accompanied the
street car TO Thirteenth street, when
