MYSTERY OF STAIRS
FATE IS NOT SOLVED

T OS ANGELES, April 2S-Four
days have elapsed since Hillary
S. Starr, the young superinten-
IL dent Of the Oak Knoll ranch,
near Pasadena, suddenly disap-
peared, under circumstances strongly
pointing to murder. Up to late hour
tonight no solution of the tragical
mystery has been found, although Off
GERS have continued the search and
have investigated every clew.
Wilson Lake, the historic body of
water at the base of the old Mission
Mill, has been thoroughly dragged for
the body of the missing man, but moth
ing was found that would lead to the
conclusion that his captors or abduct-
by throwing Starrs body into the lake.
While the public belief in Pasadena
still leans to the theory of murder and
robbery, there are those, including
some officers, who incline to the opinion
that Starr may have taken this SEN
sational method to voluntarily disap-
pear from his home.
AS Starr is admitted to have
possessed a gloomy disposition, he may
have wandered away while temporarily
insane, but his friends contend that his
family relations We're of the best, and
that Starr would hardly smash his own
lantern and have a buggy concealed in
the woods and use it to spirit himself
away.

DIR. Garrett Coming
From Portland.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

PORTLAND, Or, April 2S.-Rev David
Clayborne Garrett. rector of Trinity Epis-
copal Church of this city, has accepted
the call from st. Luke's Episcopal
Church of San Francisco. At a meeting
of the vestry of Trinity Church this after
noon DR.. Garrett formally rendered his
resignation, to take effect on September
l. About two months ago the call from
St. Luke's was extended to DR.. Garrett,
but he decided he could not leave the
work which he had entered upon here.
After further deliberation and the adjust
ment of church affairs here he decided to
accept the call from San Francisco.
Mr. Garrett was born in Burlington
Iowa, on December %, 1857. He was edu-
Gated in the public schools of Burlington
Griswold College at Davenport and Har-
ward University, where he received the
degree of A. B. in 1882. In 1883 he was or
dained rector Of Trinity Church, Daven-
port. where he served for seven years
until 1890, during which time he aided in
building up the parish from small con-
gregation to a large and flourlshing
church, clearing off all Indebtedness
erecting a rectory and doubling the num-
Der of communicates. In 1890 he was
called to Seattle, where he duplicated
his work in Davenport. While changes
occurred in the pastorate of very church
in Seattle, Mr.. Garrett. remained through
all the hard" times. declining numerous
calls to larger parishes After three years
he was called to go back to his old par
fSh in Davenport and also to Christ
Church Cathedral, New Orleans.
In 1896 he was elected rector of Trinity
Church, Portland, but felt 1t his duty to
decline. The next spring. through his
efforts, the handsome new ST. Mark S
Church was built. Then Trinity Church
of this city sent a second call having
gone a whole year without a rector, and
Mr.. Garrett came to Portland. Princi-
pally through Mr.. Garrett's efforts the
debt of $4,000 on the parish was virtually
raised by the issue of bonds.
Mr.. Garrett was married in 1886 to Miss
Lillian S. Elmer of Boston, and has three
children

TWO LEFT FOR
SPEAKERSH|P
Contest Has Narrowed
Down.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

Call Headquarters, Wellington Hotel,
Washington, April 2S
The Speakership has been narrowed
down to Henderson of Iowa and Sher-
man of New York. There IS a rurnor
that Senator Hanna may throw the
weight of his advice and influence to
man who halls from somewhere west
OF the Wabash. These appear to be the
salient features of the Speakership gos-
sip of the day
Some Representatives now in Wash
ington declare their belief thay neither
Mr.. Hopkins nor Mr.. Cannon will with
draw in favor of the other nor submit
to the dictation Of a caucus of the dele
cation If that attitude is parsistently
maintained it will remove Illinois as a
factor in the case, although efforts viii
be made, it is said, to keep the dtlega-
tion intact and cast it's vote as a whole
Tor some other candidate.
Word is going around that Senator
Hanna, who may be expected to be con
suited by his Republican friends in the
House upon the contest from time to
time, is averse to the election of an
Eastern man. 1t is said that he favors
a man from the far West although no
choice has been mentioned by name.
If this proves to be the case an in
teresting battle may be expected be-
tween Senator Hanna and Senator
Platt in influencing the contest, for of
course these two great leaders will
have something to say in the outcome,
Notwithstanding the general supposi-
tiOn that the House settles its own
elections. Mr.. Platt is generally sup
posed to be backing Mr. Sherman for
the Speakership.
1t is not believed that Ohio will have
candidate. General Grosvenor and
Mr.. Burton are willing, but they are
being held in leash, it is thought, to
be set loose if it is found that the can
didacy of an Ohio man is necessary to
break a deadlock.

ARIZONA ANTIUITY.
Probability that Unknown His
 tory May be Found Here

The Pasadena, Cal, Star on the subject of discoveries looks forward light being thrown upon the history of Arizona, as follows:
 Late discoveries in Arizona raise the hope that some clew may yet be gained to the mystery of the cliff. dwellers. Mummies have been found sealed up in air tight chambers and wrapped in cloth that had considerable strength even after exposure to the air. That they possessed consider able degree of civilization with its attendant arts is evident from their works, and that SO skillful . people should have perished from the earth and left no history is remarkable. They were certainly of considerable numbers, built extensive works and lived in manner so at variance with our ideas oi comfort as to excite the live!iest curiosity. A stone writing, accidentally found, has unlocked the history of ancient Egypt. and it is not improbable that some similisr Rosetta stone in the wilds of Arlsona may yet supply the missing link in the history Of America.
