 TO KILL
Dick Creighton Sent to Jail for Firing Through a
 Window.

A preliminary hearing held before Commissioner Green yesterday after noon resulted in Dick Creighton being held to appear before the grand jury on a charge of shooting with intent to kill or do great bodily harm to Frank Ham, mond. The accused was sent to jail in default of s, GOO bail
 The shooting occurred at the Florence The evidence showed that woman named Belle was at the bar drinking when Creighton entered the place. He was asked to drink and called for ab- sinthe. Hammond was serving behind the bar and Balkeeper Radigan was in front. Radigan told Creighton there was no absinthe and advised him to ''cut out" such dope" Argument en- sued and Creighton attempted to strike Radigan with chair and rough house developed with an offensive and defen- sive alliance existing between Creighton and the woman. Day Barkeeper Down ing, who was rooming upstairs, ran down and the scrimmage ended with Creighton having the worst of it. He was taken back and washed up at the sink; everybody agreed to drop the matter, and Creighton left, saying he would go home.
 Some ten minutes later, while Ham, mond, Radigan and Downing were standing talking at the bar, two shots crashed through the front window, a few feet away. One or two other shots were also heard, but it is not known where the last bullets went Either the first or second shot wounded Hammond very slightly in the arm.
 MT. Downing ran out of the back door and got Deputy Marshal Drake, who made the arrest later.

STAMPS TO BEAR
 NAME OF OFFICE

The postoffice department will here after print the name of the postoffice across all stamps hereafter ordered by postmasters. The stamps in future will look like those now used in the Philip pines and in Porto Rico and Panama. tracing stolen stamps and will give the a chance to keep tab on the mail-order houses who at present re- ceive a large quantity of stamps from outside places in quantity larger than permitted under the statute As it is at present any postmaster could cancel for his own use the first $50 worth of stamps in every quarter of the postal year and thus make his salary the larger. In many cases these small postmasters would take the stamps and send them on to the mail-order houses and thus make their commission. Another evil that Will be prevented IS the matter of the raising of the salaries in fourth class offices where postmaster finds that he is shy just $40 or $50 in order that his salary may be raised another $l00 for the next year. It has often happened that in such cases the postmaster would appropriate these $50 or more and thns get double the money return in salary

BARNETTE'S
 PAST LIFE
Rich Fairbanks Man Con- fronted by a Prison
 Record.

Under Seattle date line of Nov. ? the Fairbanks Times prints an expose of the former life of E. T. Barnette, the rich banker and mine operator of the Panama valley, showing that he is an -penitentiary convict.
 The story came out during the trial of the suit of J. II. Causton against Bar nette, for a partnership accounting.
 Causton alleges that he grubstaked Barnette in 1901, when the latter was stranded at St. Michael, with stock of goods to open trading post on the Panama river. Plaintiff shipped the goods in and furnished money to the amount of $6,000, and in other ways assisted him to establish himself in business. He denies Barnette's defense with interest.
 In accounting for the stock and money which Causton had given him Barnette testified that in an effort to dispose of the grubstake he left his brotherinlaw, Frank J. Clearv, in charge of the stock of goods at Fairbanks, and in 1903 Clearv sold the stock and embedded $14,00 Barnette said he had taken no action against Clearv on account of the family relationship
 When cross examined and asked if he had ever been in Oregon, Rarnette de- nied that he had been in that state. Finally when the records of the Oregon penitentiary were produced, Barnette admitted that in 1886 he had been con victed of larceny by bailee. He then told the entire story, emitting nothing, and seemed to be relieved when he had concluded his statement.
 He said in 1886 he had taken 5000 belonging to George De Wolf. He told De Wolf the money had been taken from him by an Indian. Feeling secure in the story he had told, Baruettc went about his way; but in the meantime De Wolf had been watching him and finally caught him with the money on him.
 Barnette was convicted and sentenced to fonr years in the Salem penitentiary. At the end of eighteen months he was pardoned by the governor.
 It will be shown, counsel for plaintiff told the court. that on all the claims which Baruettc stakcd by power of attorney, or by proxy, in the vicinity of Fairbanks, he used the names of those who had signed the petition to the gov crnor for bis pardon. The plaintiff will also attack Barnc;te's citizenship on the grounds that 1t was not aspartion he Fee reivei. bat communication of sentence. to which was attached the qualification that when once out uf prison he must never again enter the state oi Oregon.
