THOMPSON HOLDS ONTO FUNDS
agree. Over Placing Of the
City's Money.

LEWISTON. March 29.-Stating that
he was guided by the advice Of his at
torney, City Treasurer Thompson in
formed the council last night that he
could not comply with the order Of
the latter relative to placing on de-
post in the First National bank the
sum of $4,000. This step means that
the validity of the depository ordinance
providing for the deposit of the city
monies in banks on an interest bear
ing basis will be tested in the courts.
A short time ago. complying with the
terms of the ordinance, the First Nat
ional bank filed a bond of $4,000
which entitled the institution to a de-
posit of $4,000, bearing per cent in
terest. The council then made the
order directing that the treasurer
make the deposit of $4,000 Mr.. Thomp-
son asked until last night to consider
the matter and he appeared and stated
that he had advised with an attorney;
that he had been informed he was the
legal custodian of the funds and that
he could not place the money out of
his hands; that he wanted to do what
was right and that he was acting in
good faith.

Milton Fruit Is Safe.

FREEWATER, March 29.-The fruit
growers of the Freewater and Milton
districts, as we'll as all the people of
Umatilla county, are rejoicing to know
that the recent cold spell and snow
has not done near so much damage
to the fruit as was at first reported.
Last week it was thought by nearly
all the growers that nearly all the
early fruits were entirely gone, but
since the late rains and warmer
weather has come on it is found that
fully half, if not more than half, Of the
crop is saved, and in many cases
it is believed that the fruit will now
be of much better quality and larger
as the yield will not be so heavy.
There will be plenty of peaches, and
good quantity Of other fruits.

Grants Pass to Waldo.

GRANTS PASS, Or, March 90
That the California & Oregon Coast
Railway company is about to build a
railroad from Grants Pass to Waldo
is evident by it's giving notice to all
farmers, ranchers and others who
know they have fences, barns and
buildings on the right of way that the
company will not be responsible for
damages done to such property by the
operations of the company after the
next thirty days. A surveying crew
is going over the route for the last
time, marking the grade stakes. Colo
mel T. w. M. Draper, chief engineer
for the company. has been here for the
last two weeks looking after the pre-
liminary details, and will have direct
charge of the construction work.
The company is placing contracts
for As, 900 ties. Twenty-Five per cent of
the $4,000 stock subscriptions made
by local capital will be paid at once.
The rest will be paid as construction
proceeds, and at the ratio Of 81 of
local money to every SO expended by
the California & Eastern company.

THOMAS HOGAN FACES TERN IN PEN
Spokane Criminal Takes Sentence Like
He Would a Bitter Dose Of
Medicine.

SPOKANE, March 29.-With the
most apparent hesitation, as of a man
required by his physician to take a
bitter prescription, Thomas Hogan en-
tered a plea of guilty when ar
raigned before Judge Poindexter and
was sentenced at once to seven years
The charge to which Hogan plead
guilty was being associated with Will
liam Naive in the burglary of the store
Of Charles Schrimpf on the night Of
January "a. Hogan had been dis
charged at one time because the Off
GERS were unable to secure sufficient
edidence against him to warrant a
prosecution His partner in crime,
Naive had pleaded guilty only after
being confronted by a confession
made by a boy, Leo Malley, to Deputy
Prosecutor Fred Pugh. Naive had
shown some knives to Malley and told
the boy that he had stolen them. In
his confession Naive exonerated Ho-
gan, alleging that the latter had MOTH
ing to do with the robbery, and that
if placed on the witness stand he
would so testify in the event of the
trial of Hogan Naive was sentenced
several days ago to a term of seven
years Imprisonment.

RIVER COMING UP.
Four Foot Rise in Snake in Thirty Six
Hours.

The Snake river has been rising rap
idly since Saturday, and yesterday reg
istered six feet above low water mark,
which is a raise of about four feet in
thirty-six hours, says the Lewiston
Tribune. The warm days of the past
week have started the SHOWS melting
in the uplands. and it is expected that
a much higher stage will be reached
within the next few days. The amount
of snow fall in the foothills which &C
companied the recent cold wave, was
quite heavy in most localities, and will
result in a pretty heavy volume of
water being drained into the Snake
and Clearwater rivers.

Has Been Closed by Death Of
Lady RomN|y
THEN SECRETLY MARRIED A
LORD WHO WAS OFFICER IN
THE ARMY.

LONDON, March 29.-One of the few
peerage romances of recent days that
was really romantic has been closed
for ever by the recent death Of Lady
Romilly. She survived her handsome
soldier husband by some months. but
those who knew her best know that
her life ended when his did. Less than
ten years ago Miss Violet Grey-Eger-
ton was one Of the prettiest, most
charming and most popular girls In
London society. She was engaged to
Mr.. Ernest Cunard. an enormously
wealthy man and one of the greatest
matches of the time. The wedding was
to have been celebrated with the usual
display, but day or two before the
day set for the event. the world was
startled by the announcement that
Lord Romilly and Miss Violet Grey
Egerton had been married quietly.
Then people remembered that the
young people had been engaged once
upon a time. had quarreled. and gone
their different ways. An accidental
meeting on the eve of the marriage
to Mr. Cunard had revived old men,
cries, and a secret wedding was quick
ly arranged. Mr.. Cunard outlived his
disappointment and is the proud pos
SCISSOR of a charming American wife.
Lord and Lady ROmilly left one son,
who is just seven years old.

LONDON. March 29.-The appeal OF
Bedley's librarian to the public Tor a
sum of $4,000 sterling to complete the
purchase of Turbutt's Shakespeare ana
to retain the treasure in England looks
as if it had been in vain, for on March
81 the chance will be gone and the vol
ume will go to America unless the TO-
tai 6 5000 sterling is made up. Three
thousand pounds is not the sum nxeo
by Turbutt, but what he has been OF
fered, but by whom Turbutt will no

Rogers made the declaration that John
D. Rockefeller is hypOchOndriac, pos

dition, on leaving the witness stand at
today's hearing before United States

INTEREST IN PARKER:1HoMsoM GO
Lightweight Fighters Down to Weight
For Fight at Spokane To-
morrow Night.

SPOKANE, Wash, March 29.-With
the fight between Parker and Thomp-
son being only one day off. the chances
Of each man are being eagerly discuss
ed by the fight fans, with opinion well
divided.
That the two men are in perfect con-
dition is evident to the large crowd
which each day watches the two men
working out at the Pastime club and
the battle should decide definitely the
merits of the two fighters.
Maurice Thompson might have spo-
ken for Parker as well as himself when
he declared today that 81 am going to
win this fight but if I do lose it will
be because my opponent is the better
man."
Wrestling, rope skipping and bag
punching are the chief features of the
training of both men, little road work
being DONE Thompson never worked
on the bag before, but he was finally
persuaded to start and is now very
fond Of the work While training for
his former fight he worked a little
while with a slow bag, but could never
be persuaded to handle a swift bag
until recently. Indian Joe Gregg has
a 10 minutes tussle with Thompson
every day, and the Butte boy is said to
have derived a great deal of benefit
from this method of training.
Parker is working hard every after
noon and is on the go every minute of
the time Handball varies the monot-
ony of his regular course Of training
with Cotton, who makes things decid-
edly warm for the kid in boxing and
wrestling.
Interest in the match is increasing
daily. and indications point to good
crowd Many applications for seat res
ervations have already been made
from out of town fans, and the fight
may pack the club arena.

court before Judge M. L. Burkhart on
a charge of obstructing c street with
a train in his charge. He was found

he marks the route everywhere, so it
may not be entirely lost to the coming
