CANNOT KEEP OUT OF pen
GEORGE MASON, a cOLoRED MAN,
WILL DO TIME IN OREGON
PRISON.
Was Released From WaIIa WaIIa Pen
Four Months Ago-Confessed
Safe Robber.

Although discharged from the Walla
Walla penitentiary less than four
months ago after serving a sentence
of four years for holding up saloon
is under arrest at Portland, self-con-
fessed safe blower. Mason has adj
mitted that ne is one of a gang of
safe crackers who have been operat-
ing in Portland and vicinity on a
wholesale plan.
After his arrest by Detectives Kerri-
gan and Snow, Monday, he led the off,
GERS to a lonely spot in Portland
where he pointed out a cache of drills
and powder with which he had been
working in his safe-biowing expedi-
tions. Mason has also been identi-
fed as a hold-up man who robbed a
musician of $11.5O in Portland, Satur-
day night.
In the presence of Assistant District
Attorney Haney and newspaper men,
Mason repeated his confession yes
terday He gave a good deal of in
formation relative to the methods en-
ployed by safe craftsmen. The Mount
Scott safe Job he says, was done
alone, but in his other crimes he had
an accomplice. Mason is remarkably
bright, and his conversation sparkles
with witticisms. He refuses to give
the name of his accomplice, evidently
hoping to secure a promise from the
authorities to deal with him leniently
before he furnishes information which
will bring his companion in crime to
justice.
How long does it take to drill into
a safe?' he echoed. 1.-TWO hours? Well,
guess not; if it took that long a man
would have little chance to do any
thing. 1t takes only a few minutes"
Asking for a small drill held by De-
tective Kerrigan, he ran his hand along
it's keen edge carelessly.
This is beauty he remarked. ''It
does the work in double quick time.
We use that large drill there for dy-
Mantle, because a cartridge has to be

FILIPINO sU!ToRs ASK FAIR DEAL
Little Brown Brother Wants to be Lit
tie Brown Brother-ln-Law.

ANN ARBOR, Mich, March 9.-Our
little brown brother would be also our
little brown brother-in-la law. Filipino
students at the University of Michi-
gan have raised their protest against
a bill introduced in the Indiana iegis-
lature by Senator Davis aimed at the
prevention of the marriage of Ameri-
can girls to men of the archipelago.
Reciprocity and square deal" in
matrimony, as well as affairs of state,
is what the Filipinos want, and they
express their desires in a straight
forward way. Frederic UNISON of Luz
cera, Tayabas, p l., says:
We regret very much such dis
elimination, for we never suffered it
under the Spanish government, al
though that was called despotic. Sew
eral companions of the student nodded
their approval of his words.
Filipino boys could marry Spanish
girls and many of them did. Further
more, we know very we'll that in the
Philippines, Americans can enter into
legal matrimony with our girls at any
time, therefore why should not the Fill
ipinos be allowed to marry American
girls? Where is your reciprocity?
So we protest sincerely against this
bill, not because We wish to marry
white girls, but because We want Jus.
tlce, reciprocity, and a square deal
and above all, we want to save ou]
country's integrity

HIS FINANCES WORRIES CHICAGO
Leaders In Zion City Resign and Big
Creditors Become Uneasy.

CHICAGO, March 9.-Deacon Chas.
]. Barnard, who left his position as
general financial manager at Zion City,
recently, talked of the causes for his
action, which resulted in uneasiness
among the Dowie creditors and discord
in the Christian Catholic church. He
declared he resigned because of per-
sonal differences with DR.. Dowie, but
that there is a possibility of the break
being patched up and his return to
Zion.
Light also was shed upon land deals
in Zion City involving a large part Of
the city. Deacon Barnard said:
Il was acting under instructions
from DR.. Dowie when I placed mort
gage on the lake front property. The
mortgage is a fact, despite the state
ments to the contrary, and DR.. Dowie's
announcement that no money would
be borrowed from outside. 1 was in
structed to get s25o,0 OO.''
More Disclosures.
In conjunction with the uneaSiness
over Deacon Barnard's retirement dis
closures were made by Chicago
financier in the confidence of Zion.
This mortgage on the lake front
property is not ALL he said. TT is
untrue that Zion never borrowed
money. Dowie says every indebted
ness on the tract of $500 acres is
wiped out. This also is untrue. The
, tract running north from Dowie's
residence. including much of the cen
trail part of the town, is mortgaged.
Leases are not worth the paper they
are written on. The only thing the
people have is the word of Dowie.
The statement that Zion is only $780,
| 900 in debt is absurd It's only sources
of income are contribution and the
lace factory"
| Deacon Westwood, aroused by the
repeated assertions that he was dis
missed, said he handed in three resig-
| nations, as church member, officer and

Prolonged Debauch of an Indian
Couple Terminates In a Death.

NORWAY, Mich, March 9.-As the
climax of a drunken orgie of several
weeks duration, Mrs. Joe Gristoe, a
Chippewa squaw, was burned to death
last night at ner home in Waucedah,
a village twelve miles from mere.
The Indian woman and her husband,
who is a well known hunter and trap
per, were beastly intoxicated when
they retired in their shanty last night.
Shortly before midnight the man, in
lighting mis- pipe, also ignited the
straw bedding.
Stupefied by drink, the squaw was
unable to move, while the intoxicated
husband had not sufficient presence
of mind to extinguish the flames.
Some passing Indians observe the ex-
traordinary illumination in the shanty
and succeeded in quenching the fire,
but not before the squaw had been ia
tally burned. Medical aid was sum-
moned from Norway, but the woman
expired before the physician arrived.

One of lions largest creditors visit

tended starting suit, he said ne had
not decided, but wants to give DR..
Dowie a square deal.'
Barnard was too hard pressed he
continued. He never could satisfy
the creditors and never had anything
TO give except promises. All the sat
isfaction I could get was that they
will pay as soon as they are able.'
Two more officials of Zion City
dropped out yesterday. Deacon Will
liam Hamilton, manager of the fac
tories, was discharged for cause. Dea-
con John D. Johnson resigned as man
ager of the lumber association. He
has disposed of his property and will
leave Zion City.

Demand for Sobrieiy

The man who gets drunk has no
better standing in baseball than in
any other occupation.
Baseball is sport, but it is clean
sport-it Is more than sport, it is
business.
1t depends for its success upon the
approval and patronage of whole
some element of the public, and it
must come up to the public standard
of morals and decency.
1t is becoming common for profes-
sional ball players to be discharg ed
because of drunkenness.
1t is becoming the rule that the
man that drinks hard is held to be in
capacitated for the game where quick
ness and correctness of thought and
action are so requisite.
No degree of skill and reliability
when sober can balance the danger of
error when drunk Men that when
sober are among the very best in the
National league have had to go
because they would not keep sober.
Business is setting its face sternly
against the hard drinker And so is
clean sport.
The great corporations of the
country have made some amends for
the evil they do by establishing the
rule that only sober men can serve
them in the places of trust and respon
sibility.
The railway companies, the tele-
graph companies, the express com
panies, and all the rest of the great
public service corporations hold
drunkenness in an employe to be
ground for discharge.
A banking institution though it
had millions at it's back, could not
live year with drunken men at its
wickets.
Drunken men in the government
departments would cause national
shame and scandal.
The place in business for the hard
drinking man is shrinking smaller
and smaller each year. Today he
seldom rises above menial position
He is heavily handicapped and only
extraordinary abilities can overcome
the distrust of him and give him an
equal footing with sober men.
For high success he must pay an
enormous extra price of energy and
effort.
1t is the same in the professions.
The old time lawyer that made
great pleas only when drunk has been
crowded down by the lawyer that
makes ADLER pleas when sober.
The drunken physician is no longer
deemed genius but is avoided.
Even the best bartender il the sober
one Saloon keepers, just as all other
business men, recognize the business
value of sobriety, even in dealing ont
drinks, and the bartenders that never
drink behind the bar get the biggest
wages.
Sobriety has it's advantages in sports
as it has in business. Baseball men
are rapidly learning it. Liquor and
high salary no longer mix.
