CONAN DOYLE
IS OUTDONE
CRIMINALS IN REAL LIFE FORM
CRIME SYNDICATE BEYOND
IMAGINATION OF PUREST FIG
TON BY SHERLOCK HOLMES
CREATOR.

LONDON, Oct. 3O-Sir A. Conan
Doyle never invented an imaginary
crime syndicate as remarkable as the
real one against which the Paris police
are seeking evidence all over Europe.
Paris is the headquarters and
France its main field of operations. 1t
is always on the lookout for profitable
Jobs" in other countries however, and
it is believed the organization can be
connected with crimes in every coun-
try in Europe. While French secret
service agents think they already know
the head men as well as many subor-
dinates, arrests are being delayed
pending the quest for still more con-
elusive evidence.
Antoine Thomas, of wealthy fam
lily at Clermont- Ferrank, through
whose confession the existence of the
"Black Gang" as It is known, was re-
vealed. is the only prisoner thus far.
Thomas. himself, held a compare :
lively unimportant post in the organl-
cation. He gave himself up, he SAID
to save his sweetheart, who had fallen
under suspicion. His story has been
amplified by the police inquiry.
The organization is said to be man
aged by a secret governing committee
of men so prominent their arrests VIII
create an international sensation. Dis
trict agents are in charge of operations
=. -, ,,.a,.;,,oas and abroad and under
them are veritable armies OF thieves
and receivers of stolen goods
The leaders know they are undei
surveillance. but seem to rely on theh
influence. financial strength and SKI
to protect them.

IN "THE HOLY CITY," AT THE
TEMPLE FRIDAY NIGHT.

Salome IS the most interesting because
she is the most human of them ali.
The Salome introduced in ~The Holy
City" is a passionate woman of great
beauty. but not the depraved and ut
terly sensual degenerate which Oscar
Wilde sought TO have accepted in the
erotic drama which he gave to the
world many years ago, and which has
recently been made into grand opera
by Richard Strauss.
The salome shown in 'aThe Holy
City" is madly in love with young
Roman, named Marius, but it is not
an unhealthy love 1t is the old love
of woman for a man. a passionate
infatuation which fills her whole life
and makes her frantically and insane
Iy jealous of everyone who has any in
fiuence with the object of her affec-
tons
This leads her, at the instigation Of
her mother, to demand and obtain

from Herod, the head of John, the
Baptist, The forerunner of the Sa-
viour has influenced Marius into de-
his love for Salome for his faith in the
Saviour in whom he has come to be-
lieve. In tragical scene in the last
act at the gates of Jerusalem Salome
accidentally kills Marius and then,
stabbing herself, falls across his dead
body, declaring her faith and belief in
the lowly Nazarine who had met His
death three days before on the Hill of
Calvary.

Consider and Hear Me-" in way
which aided much to the penitent spiri,
of the hour
1t was through the awful example OF
Plate that DR.. Breeder sought to crys-
taliZe the hesitating resolution of his
hearers last night, and to make them
turn to the service of the Lord. He
said in part:
THE trial of Jesus Christ before he
Roman governor, was the greatest and
most stupendous event in the history
of Jurisprudence. The conduct of his
trial was contrary to all jurisprudence
subversive of all justice. and all right
1t was characterized by the judges,
by brutal and high handed proceedings
that were not known at the trial of
Socrates and would put to the blush
the malodorous Jeffries and would
cause even Sardinapolis to shudder
Mercy was forgotten, justice outraged,
truth violated and life ruined But this
great central figure has emerged out of
that infamy and awful degradation and
suffering, carrying with him the as
surance that mercy will be restored
and that life will be enthroned, which
is the light of God.
He had done no evil ldeeGs and made
every effort to save Him from the ven-
geance of the bowling mob, and the
wretched rabble and the corrupt Off
Gals, who were using the mob for
their own evil purposes. Plate wanted
some substantial charge. but he was

for they said all people will soon be-
lieve him, all people will soon follow
him. for he has worked many miracles
and is doing many mighty deeds;
therefore we must STAY him, and at last
enter the conspiracy and betray Him.
"Pilate was looking for some means
by which he could save an innocent
man and at the same time protect
himself and his soldiery. which was
very weak numerically. from the mad,
hateful, frenzied and unreasonable
mob and he offered to scourge Christ
and let him go; but that will not do.
So at last he reminds them Of an old
custom which calls for the release of
one man on such an occasion and when
he asks Whom shall release unto you?
and being melted by the high priests,
they all cry, 'Barrabas,' and the muir
derer is released, and at last PLATE.
takes water and washes his hands,
declaring that by so doing he has
cleansed himself from the guilt of
shedding innocent blood. 1t was a
wretched subterfuge; the elimination
of other compromises and subterfuges.

be found in the whole scripture is in
Luke. 1t has no hyperbole. it has no
embellishments but is simple terri

sometimes as though he and the Ro-

PENDLETON, Ore, Feb. 16.-Pen-
dleton is once more resting securely
behind a good levee, the work of repair
and rebuilding having been completed
by the Newport Construction company.
Sunday the horses, graders, wagons
and other paraphenalia were loaded
onto the cars and sent to Hermiston,
where the company has contract
with the government for the. removal
of $4,000 yards of dirt
Ross Newport, the superintendent of
the company who has had personal
supervision on the local levee left
for Hermiston, but before leaving he
stated to reporter that the levee was
now in first-class condition, the lower
part of it at least, better than it had
ever been and he felt sure that the
city was not in danger OF suffering
any as the result Of floods.
Owing to the fact that it was so late
in the fall when the work was under
taken, the task of repairing and re-
building has been attended with much
difficulty and no little hardship to both
men and horses, At times the water
has been very high and one temper
airy wing dam had to be constructed
to allow them to finish the work. At
other times the men in the employ of
the company worked while standing
in water, when the mercury in the
thermometer stood several degrees be-
low freeing.
The progress of the work has been
watched with a great deal of interest
by many citizens, especially those
living in the lower parts of the city,
through the several, to them long
weeks, that it has been under way and
there has been a general sign OF re-
lief at the announcement that the last
grader full or dirt had been dumped
and the last rock laid in the riprap.

BRAVE CHlLDREN'S ACT.
With Rare Presence Of Mind The,
Save 2-Year.Old PLAYMATE


Save 2-Year.Old Playmate.
PORTLAND. Ore, Feb. 16.-Ches.
ter and Victor Bump, aged and 4
years, respectively, of Forest Grove
Ore, proved themselves heroes yester
day by saving the life of their little
playmate, Marcelle Villager. the 2.
year-old daughter of a neighbor. The
Bumps live on low land and the heavy
rains of the past week have filled up
all depressions near the house. A
f1vefoot excavation under the house
was full to the top and while playing
at the side of the water, the little girl
fell in. Her playmates rushed to her
rescue.
With rare presence of mind for so
young a boy. Chester lay prone upon
the bank and seized the little girl
firmly as she rose after sinking under
the water. He tried to drag her out.
but could not manage it, and directed
his younger brother to call for aid.
Victor sought his mother, who was in
the house, but could not make her I'M
derstand what was wanted and she
told him to go out and play. He then
rushed out and found Charles Tennis,
the hired man, and made him under
stand. The other boy was still hold
in the baby above the water when Ten
mis- arrived, but was completely ex-
hausted.
