POLICE BELIEVE
BOY IS BURGLAR
CAPTURE YOUTH WHO CARRIES
REVOLVER
Detectives Think Prisoner Who Has
Cartridge Belt and Soft-soIe Shoes
Is Person Who Terrorized
Residence District

Harry Hendricks, the 1S-year- old boy
arrested early last evening by PATROL
man j. NJ. Harrison for carrying con-
| cealed weapons, may turn out to be the
bare-footed burglar who terrorized the
residence district about Tenth and
Flower streets Wednesday night and
the footpad who caused q reign of con-
Sternation in the Also street district
Hendricks, according to the police
has told several stories He claims to
have run away from his home in Seat
tie some weeks ago. and has Been
drumming" his way from town to town.
BUT when 1t came to telling what he
had been doing here and where he had
been he told different stories
When searched at the police station
pair of soft-soled shoes, a 80 caliber
revolver and well-flled cartridge belt
were found. Protection was the ex-
cuse that Hendricks gave for carrying
the gun, and he said he used the shoes
to walk long distances.
From descriptions secured Wednes-
day night and Thursday morning that
of Hendricks corresponds to the burg
lar who terroriZed many houses on
West Tenth street and escaped from
Patrolman Paurtz, who was detailed to
investigate the cases. The fact that
he seems to be quite familiar with Vari-
Gus parts of the city indicates that he

Youth Carries a Gun
During the past few weeks there
have been many complaints made to
the police of young boy holding up
drunks, old men and women and chill

turned over to the police which might
easily be that of Hendricks.
Most of the attempts were not sue
cessful, and for that reason the police
have been keeping the matter dark
But little has been said of the affairs
supposed to be the work of the boy

on in his work and be caught In the
act. However. he has successfully
eluded the police.
on San Fernando street Hendricks
was found last evening. apparently
aimlessly wandering about Patrolman
Harrison followed the lad for some dis
tance. and becoming convinced that the
boy was acting suspiciously, he over
took him and questioned him. Upon
making a hasty search of the boys
person he found that Hendricks car
ried a gun.
Not being able to give a sufficient
reason for having the revolver, Patrol
man Harrison decided to send the boy
to the police station. AS soon as Sert.

be the hoy footpad." The matter
was turned over to the detective de-
partment for investigation.

PETIT JAPANESE ATTRACTS
ATTENTION
Miss Shizu Tagaki Arraiened in Court
on Larceny Charge Declares
She Is Innocent of
Crime

Charged with grand larceny, Miss
Shizu Tagaki. fair little geisha girl
from far Japan, appeared before JUS
tice of the Peace Pierce yesterday
and was arraigned and placed under
$500 bonds which one of her little yell
low admirers produced in coin of the
realm and succeeded i'll having her re-
leased.
The girl is less than % years of age,
and according to her story and the
stories told by number of her
friends she is absolutely without guilt
She came to the United States more
than a year ago, and when at Fresno
lost most of her money because of
her inability to successfully conduct a
rooming house. A number of her
COuntrymen were coming to Los An
gees and they gave her funds to make
the trip south. She arrived here Octo-
Der 2l, and that evening, according to
the statements Of the prosecuting wit
ness in the case, some of the Jap boys
wanted to go out and have a good time.
1t is alleged that Y. Morita produced
roll Of bills amounting to $3.50 and Il
stack of gold amounting to 5000, and
asked Miss ShiZu to take care of it
for him until he returned. She is al
legged to have taken the money and
departed for Barstow, where she was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff IIutchin-
son Friday afternoon.

The petite prisoner was dressed in
black and Wore long white walk

a high pompadour and was surmount-
ed by becoming blue hat.
When she reached a seat near the
prisoners dock the little woman sat
down and gazed shyly toward the
judge and the contesting attorneys and
swung her neatly shod feet which
dangled over the side of the chair.
She had very little to say during the
arraignment. Indignantly denying the
allegation, but later through an in
terpreter, she told her story to Her
aid representative.

ON THE PORTAGE
Commission is Soon to Meet to Adjust
and Fix Freight Charges

Salem, July 7.--Since the harvest
of the fall grain is ON in Eastern Or
egon and Idaho it will soon be neces-
sary for the state portage board to
hold meeting and decide upon
schedule of freight rates to be in
effect upon the road affecting the va
rious points along the line from Lew
iston to Portlnad.
Hitherto it has been unnecessary
to establish schedule, because no
freight was moved or was likely to
move for several weeks, but now the
time is approaching when the grain
will begin to move and the board will
find it encumbent to take action in
the matter.
It is questionable if meeting will
be held until Governor Cha IN berlain
returns from the east, which will not
be until the 23rd of this mouth. The
0. R. & N. Company's tariff rate now
in effect between Lewiston and Port

In Accordance With Order to Be Issued
BY Board of Regents Tonight

Pendleton, July 1S.-At a meeting
of the regents of Weston Normal
school which will be held in this city
tomorrow night, an order will be
issued to close the school and Gus
todian will then be appointed to have
charge of the property. This has been
decided upon in advance of the meet
ing by the members of the board of re-
gents as it became evident that the
people who have given notes for the
support of the school did so nnder a
misunderstanding, and it will be i'm
possible for the regents to secure funds
with which to keep the school open.
The notes given were signed as a
mere matter of collateral or backing
for the regents, in securing funds,
with the understanding that they were

never to be paid. It now becomes
necessary for the regents to place tn ese
notes in the bank. and draw upon
them Immediately; thus making them
payable to the banks, should the refer
endum vote cut out the appropriation
for the normals and number of the
signers of the notes have objected to
this, SO the only thing to do is to close
the school according to the regents
best judgment.
It is to be regretted that the school
is to be closed as it is now at the be-
ginning of the most promising year.
A class of over 30 would have been
graduated next year and applications
from students iu every county in east
ern Oregon have been received by
President French, who is working very
zealously for the school,

practically 81 per ton. It has been
estimated that, if the portage road
should establish rate of $3 per ton
upon freight between these two points
there would be considerable amount
of profit in it and would still be
much more reasonable rate for the
farmers and shippers of grain.
On the other hand there is likeli-
hood of the o. R. 81 N. Go. readjusting
its present schedule to compete with
the portage road aud a further cut by
the latter, it is thought, might oper-
ate to precipitate rate war between
the competing lines for the business.
The two members of the board here,
Secretary of State Dunbar and State
Treasurer Moore, are undecided as to
when the rate schedule meeting will
be held, but quite probably the latter
part of the month. If the $3 per ton
rate is established, a proportionate
rate will be arranged for tho other
stations along the route.

WAS KILLED BY GAS
RANCHERLowEREDlN INTO WELL
NEAR MILTON.
J. Lower Is Asphyxiated BY Fumes
While He Was Ninty Feet
Below the Surface.

J. Lower, rancher who lived about
twelve miles northeast of Milton, was
killed by gases from well shortly be-
fore noon Saturday.
Lower, who was man about SIS
years of age, was watching well dig
gers who were at work upon the home
stead of George s. Stephens. The men
had dug about ninety feet and when
they came up to go to dinner the old
man wanted them to let him go down
into the well. The we'll diggers re-
monstrated with him but when he
insisted they allowed him to descend.
After staying at the bottom of the
well for short time Lower called to
the men to pull him up. This the
men started to do and raised him
about six feet from the bottom of the
we'll, when suddenly without a cry
he dropped from the bucket, and when
brought to the top by one of the men
who went down after him was found
to be dead.
1t is supposed that he was overcome
by gases in the we'll and was unable
to hold on to the rope by which the
bucket was suspended
Coroner Henderson was notified by
telephone shortly after noon, but when
the facts in thee were explained to
him he decided that it would be un-
necessary to hold an inquest.
Lower leaves wife and several
grown children, most of whom are re-
siding on the ranch northeast Of Mil
ton. Little is known Of him there, as
he had lived in that vicinity but a
short time.
