CREFFIELD SHOT TO DEATH.
Leader of the "HOIy Rollers" Pays Pen

Leader of the "HOIy Rollers" Pays PEN
atty for BetravIng Young Girls.
Franz E. Crefield, leader of the
Holy Rollers was shot and killed
in Seattle yesterday by George Mitch
ell of Portland, who asserts that
Creffleld ruined two of his sisters.
Creffield created sensation here in
Oregon two years ago, as head of re-
ligious sect. Mitchell was recently
released from the Oregon penitentiary.
Creffield recently visited his former
home and the scene of his insane re-
ligious antics at Corvallis few weeks
ago, after his release from the pen
itentiary, and was notified to leave
town at once.
So great was the feeling against him
because of his immortality and in
decency while conducting the fanatic
al program of the Holy Rollers in that
vicinity that he was warned that he
would be roughly treated If he re-
mained in Corvallis. He left at once
for Seattle where he has endeavored
to start Holy Roller agitation.
Mitchell went to Seattle in search
of Creffield and when he met the se-
ducer of his sisters on the street, shot
him without ceremony.

College Bows Prank.

Eighteen members Of tho Whitman
college senior class made trip the
other day i'll tallyho to Kicker
springs, on their annual picnic. At
the springs the class proceeded to dig
up cap, which they, as sophomores,
buried there two years ago, having
stolen it from a freshman in class
fight. The cap was found to be in
tact and much the worse for Its long
confinement underground. The cap
was presented to the Juniors, from
whom it was stolen when they were
freshmen. The shouts of the mem
bers of the two classes on the college
campus, indicated that something of
an unusual character was being pulled
off.

TO SCHOOL BOARDS.
As the Year Closes, Superintendent Wells
Gives Out Information.

Gives Out Information.
Pendleton, May 7-As the school year
is drawing to close, you may be in-
terested in hearing something of the
school work throughout the country.
The financial condition of the schools
if very satisfactory Since October 1,
1905. have apportioned to every dis
trict So 40 for each child enumerated,
besides $50 from the county school
funds, and So for employing teacher
who attended the institute. Nearly
two-thirds of the districts levied a
special district tax last year, and are
receiving additional revenue from this
source.
Most boards of directors have learned
that cheap teachers do not pay, that
in order to get skilled instructors and
secure the best service, it is necessary
to pay as high salaries as the same
talent and skill could secure in other
lines of business. Most of the schools
employing one teacher are now paying
$50 per mouth. A few of the small
districts are still giving less than this,
but on the other hand, quite numper
of the one.room schools are paying
$50, and some as high as $50 per
month.
About this time last year | wrote
you, urging You to employ your teach
ers early. In nearly all of the larger
districts this was done, but In a few
cases no effort was made to secure a
teacher until about time for school to
begin. Then the best teachers were
all taken. and great deal of difficulty
wac experienced IL procuring suitable
teachers. In many instances ! have
been able to help both directors and
teachers in filling the schools OF the
county. This has added greatly to the
increasing work and responsibility of
this Office, without increasing its re-
Enumeration, but the results have been
good, and the method will be countin-
ued. AS rule the teacher whom you
employed last should have your prefer
ence agian, provided the school has
been reasonably satisfactory to you,
and our own teacher should generally
be preferred to teachers from dis
tance. Securing suitable teachers for
the schools seems to me to be the
most important duty of the directors
and where any advice or assistance is
needed, it will be gladly given.
Very truly yours,
FRANK X. WELLES,
Sup't Umatilla County.

Thomas H. Watkins, managing cruis-
er for Dorgan & Co., are the Albany
defendants. ]. w. Hopkins, an at
torney at Vancouver Washington, and
w. w. Brown of Seattle, also an at
torney, were caught in the govern
ment's dragnet and are among the in
dicted. G. A. M. Schlierholz, for
merly special agent of the interior de-
partment, completes the list of the
accused.
When suspicious arose three years
ago as to the legality of the entries
Schlierholz was directed to investigate
them. Acting in corrupt collusion,
it is charged, with the other members
of the large conspiracy, he repeatedly
reported to the general land Office that
the entries were regular and that
patents should issue.
The Indictment adds, as usual, to
the list of indicted persons the hcti-
tious names John Doe, Richard Roe
and others, and it is said that several
prominent citizens of Oregon may ul-
timately be included.
The indictment is the browning la
Dor of the federal grand jury, which
has been in session for the past six
weeks, and represents almost hercu-
lean work on the part of United States
District Attorney w. G. Bristol and
Inspector I. B. Neuhausen. The pre-
sentation of the evidence to the grand
jury in this case alone has occupied
the last two weeks and scores of wit
nesses were examined. 1t was with
the greatest difficulty that the wit
nesses were compelled to disclose the
facts. When subpoenaed to appear
before the grand jury, some of them
simulated sickness, some delayed COM
ing and some fatty refused to respond.
Outside of the actual defendants, at
least 1000 people, chiefly residents of
Crook and Linn counties, were in
volved either as entrymen or as wit
nesses to proofs of entry, and the gov
ernment agents have encountered a
spirit of stubborn resistance which
has pervaded the people of the coun-
ties.

man of this city was seriously injured

was badly fractured. He was taken

A JOLLY AMERICAN TRAMP COMING
Spirited Play to be at Opera House
Next Sunday.

" A Jolly American Tramp" is the
striking. title Of a new play by r.. b.
Kidder, the we'll known author, who
wrote "A Poor Relation and Peace
full Valley, which attained consider
able fame. The play will be offered
by the veteran manager, u. d. Newell,
at the Opera House Sunday April %.
It's a story of American life por-
.trayed by American characters, and
told in quick, sparkling way, full of
strong dramatic climaxes, brisk dia-
logue and brilliant comedy. The CEN
trail idea concerns the defrauding of q
life insurance company by a rascal
named Joe Barrett. Both the idea and
treatment are absolutely new and ORR
ginal, if such things can truthfully be
said in dramatic writing today. Joe
Barrett insures his wife's life for 500, :
600, and then by his scheming, lays
claim she died. Hhas however stu
pifed her with powerful drugs and
keeps her close prisoner in the top
garrett of his house where no one ever
visits except himself. He then substi-
.tutes body, the face of which has
been destroyed and the body is buried
as his wife's and he collects the $780,
900 from the insurance company. His
step-daughter. a little girl of fourteen,
the child of the ill-treated wife, is away
at school at this time and knows moth
ing of her mother being alive, being
forbidden to go upon the upper floor
of the house where the victim is secre-
ted. The suspicious of a detective
connected with the insurance company
named Warren Wade, are aroused,
and with the assistance of the woman S
child, little girl named Flo, and his
friend Barker, and a quaint oh aracter,
tramp called 'Happy jack, he dis
covers the unfortunate woman secreted
in the attic, being treated to slow poi
son. and after an exciting series of
adventures restores her to her daugh-
ter and friends, and metes out the
proper punishment to Barrett and his
accomplices, an adventures who has
agreed to marry him and fly toforeign
lands with the $40, defrauded from
the life insurance company.

SPLENDID CONCERT COMING
skovgaard Concert Company Tues
day, April Oath.
Violinist Returns After Successful
Tour Of States. .
Last Visit to New Ulm Left Very
Pleasing Impression.

!
The announcement that Axel Skov-
gard and company will appear at
Turner theatre in this city on the even
ing of the Oath should meet with plea
sure by all those who love good music
and the expression Of it that is pro-
duced by an artist who, as violinist,.
is said to be next to the immortal Ole
Bull.
When this company was in New Ulm
last there was but a small audience
out to hear him but at that time the
entertainment was said to have been
the best of its kind and he the best
violinist that had ever appeared in
the city. There has been nothing
since that time that can compare with
his playing and his arrival in the city
will be awaited with interest by all
those who had the pleasure of listenin-
ing to him the last time.
Seldom is a ST. Paul audience arous-
ed to that pitch of enthusiasm that it
refuses to be satisfied after the last
number of an already ample concert
has been given, and insists upon hav-
ing last leave taking from the artist,
or artists, that have brought on the
B spell, says the Pioneer Press. But
that8is what happened last evening at
the Central Presby terian church at the
concert given by Skovgaard and his
concert company. At the conclusion
I of Pifzzicato Grazioso, a piece written
by himself which was the last Of his
final group, Skovg aard was compelled
to reappearE several times upon the
platform. The applause continued,
and finally when someone in the bal
conycalled out, Home, Sweet, Home, e
those in the audience who had already
filed out into the aisles returned as one
person and the violinist was obliged
to give one last number.
The audience was fairly large and
could scarcely be more enthusiastic.
The artists were not to be outdone in
this respect, however, for they re-
sponded to the repeated outbursts with
a genuins willingness which made
their generosity doubly enjoyable.
Skoygaard has made happy selection
in his associates this year. The pro-
gram, too, was a well-balanced one
lastevening. Skoygaard was the same
finished artist that was seen here last
). year. All his numbers were repeatedly
encored, but none won more applause

Owens, who was there in the double
capacity of an editor and an attorney,
made such a hit with the association
that he was immedi lately invited to ap-
pear at the next meeting Whenhe would
be given as much time as he wanted to-
explain certain points that were of in
terest to the profession.
1t was to all appearances meeting
OF benefit to the members. In point of
attend ance and enthusiasm it was of
more than ordinary merit, in fact it is
said to have been one of the best meet
ings the association has ever held and
the opinion of most of those who were
present was that the October meeting
should be held in this city.
DR.. Stricken, who had charge of the.
meeting was very jealous Of the com
fort of his guests and saw to it that
they were entertained to the best of
the ability of the profession in this
city, SO that things moved off with the
regularity of clock work, barring the
lateness of the trains over which he
had no jurisdiction.
Wd. Eibner handled the banquet end
OF the affair with the excellence of
professional caterer and while it was
intended only to be a lunch the ar
rangement of the tables, the decora-
tions and the spread itself was Tempt
ingly neat and artistic and was compli-
mented by many. Twenty-six people
sat down to the table. They were
Doctors Head of Minneapolis, Media
witt of st. Paul, James of Mankato,
Clement of Lamberton, Gosslee of
Wabasso, Gray of Vesta, Adams of
Morgan, Aldrich Of Belleview, Bayley
and Welcome of Sleepy Eye, Brand
and Pease of Redwood Falls and
Strickler, F'ritsche, Schoch, Reineke,
Weiser, Vogel and Wicherski of this
city; and Editors Welles of Redwood
Falls, Starr of Lam berton, Owens of
Walnut Grove, McRae of Sanborn
and Liesch and Brooks of this city.
Andrew J. Eckstein came in too late
for the banquet but was present during
the latter part of the meeting.
The association is made up of a fine
body of young men and the interest
they all take in their profession is
guarantee that they will carry out in
their profession those things that are
best calculated for the good of man
kind.
