THE BOGUS BISHOP.
John Lawrence's Term OF imprisonment
Expires this Morning.

John Lawrence. the bogus bishop, r.
the happiest man in Clatsop county. AZ
ter many weary months In the county
bastIle he will once again breathe the
air Of freedom today.
Lawrence made his debit in this city
in August. 1895. He came here In the rail-
ment OF Catholic bishop, and he looked
one Upon his arrival he visited Rev.
Father Dlelman and made known to him
his position In the Catholic church. The
good father. having no reason TO sus-
pect the man OF being other than he
claimed, treated Lawrence with every
mark OF respect.
The bishop said he was from Homo
lulu, at which place he was the chief
dlgnitary Of Catholicism. He succeeded
In collecting funds for alleged missionary
work, and made himself generally agree
able to the Catholics OF this city. But
mans sins will almost invariably find
him out and the old adage applied to
Lawrence. He was arrested, tried, con-
victed, and sentenced 10 long term in
the county Jail. where he has since Ian
guished.
His term Of sentence expires today
Since his confinement Lawrence has join
ed the Salvation Army, and It IS said
he will speak, at tonisht's meeting or
that organization. He says he wishes
yery much to return to his home in
Canada and expresses the belief that
friends on Puget sound will ssist him
to return. Lawrence Is over 60 years OF
age, but Is stlll hale and hearty. and
will no doubt get along in the world. II
is expected he will give up the fake
bishop business

western Pennsylvania are two brothers,
one Of whom is tall and lank and the
other short and fat. Many years ago
they purchased a tract Of mountaln

divided the labor of measuring it, one
stepping of one side, the other the 9th

were perfectly satisfied. until recently.

considerable tract Of the land. Each
brother swOre that he knew the meas
