him thus dressed before.
You like my togs?" said he, with a cheerful
twinkle in his reckless eyes Obviously, he had no
more i'll feeling for than professional gambler

ROSE THIEVES
RA|O|NG YARDS

The rose bush thief and vandal
has begun his annual depredations
in this city and complaints are be-
coming frequent as the season ap-
proaches perfection for setting out
the plants. G. j. Craig, E14O2
Tenth av., this morning found four
high priced bushes he had recently
ornamented his lawn with uprooted
and gone. He has complained to
the police, but clews are scarce, as
the grass prevented any footprints
about the bushes.
A number of property owners in
that and other sections Of the city
have also been bothered by thefts
of this sort. In some instances the
bushes are torn up and thrown to
one side. Where the bushes dis
appear it is evident that they have
been stolen to be sold. The rose
bush plumber has become so exas-
perating that a healthy example
will undoubtedly bemaJe of the
first guilty party against whom suf-
ficient evidence can be obtained.

INSANE LOVER
MURDERS GIRL
WOUNDS HER ESCORT AND
THEN MORTALLY WOUNDS
HIMSELF IN JEALOUS PAS.
SION.

HEPPNER, Ore, May 4.-Insan-
ity will probably be the line of de-
tense adopted by Henry P. Morri-
son, the o. r. & N. brakeman who,
crazed by jealousy, hunted down
his sweetheart, Nora Wright, and
her escort, Barney Ahalt, late yes
terday afternoon. He murdered
the girl and wounded Ahalt, then
turned the gun on himself and is
fatally wounded.
Sheriff Shut and Deputy District
Attorney NOtson, of Morrow coun-
ty, are at the scene of the tragedy
securing a deposition from Ahalt.
The killing occurred near the lit
tie hamlet of Morgan, near Cecil,
Ore. Morrison had taken a speed
er and with an express messengers
gun started down the track He
knew that Miss Wright was riding
with Ahalt.
Close to Morgan he passed the
couple at a crossing. He jumped
from the speeder and stopped the
team.
Say your prayers" he said, and
opened fire. Miss Wright dropped
dead, shot in the head. Ahalt is
wounded in the breast, but may
live.
Going to Morgan, Morrison heard
the girl was dead and walking into
a wheat warehouse put revolver
against his own head and fired. He
was not found for several hours.
There is no hope of recovery.
Morrison had been brooding over
the love affair with Miss Wright
several weeks.

SAY UNION PAYS
BELOW SCALE

There has been considerable
comment of late regarding the fact
that the men employed by Thomas
Maloney on his Ninth av. sewer
job, which was taken by federal
union No. 1924, are receiving only
50 a day pay with the promise OF
another rs cents day If those who
have the contract make any money
ON it.
City ordinance provides that a
wage of $275 day shall be paid
to common labor on all public
work. With regard to the federal
contract Commissioner O'Brien this
morning stated that the ordinance
would not hold with it for the rea-
son that because the union has
taken the contract each member
is a partner In it.
In explanation Mr.. Maloney said:
"All the men. who are employed
on this work signed up to go ahead
at a wage of 81 day and that
whatever is made shall be dis
tributed among them. If we lose,
each man agrees to share in the
loss. But there's no danger of us
losing-well make money. | at
tribute the report that we were not
paying the union scale to a person
who made himself so obnoxious to
the other men that | let him go.
He had $14 coming, but I shall not
pay him this until the work is COM
pleted."

BALLOONNC GREAT SPORT AND GOOD FOR THE NERVES

WASHINGTON. D. c., May A.
Mounting at a tremendous rate,
Army Signal Corps Balloon No. 10
shot through the air, almost
straight upward from the gas
works in Washington.
AS | remember it. this motion
brought no sensation whatsoever.
In the excitement of the getaway
and accompanying hand-waving, l
found myself several hundred feet
from the ground before the full re-
alization came to me that | was up
in a balloon for the first time.
During the first few moments not
a word was spoken by myself or by
the other occupants of the car.
Lieut.. Frank P. Lahm, United
States Army Signal corps, our navi-
gator, who won the Jas. Gordon
Bennett cup in the international bal
loon race at Paris, when he cross
ed the English channel, was of
course calm. The other two pas
sengers, Capt. Robt. o. Van Horn,
Seventeenth infantry, military aid
to Pres. Roosevelt; and Lieut.. Thos
Selfrijge, who few Prof. Alex. Ora
ham Bells tetrathedral kite on the
Nova Scotian coast last summer,
were, like myself, novices in bal
loon.
The first word spoken after we
left the ground was by Lieut.. Sell
fridge, the single exclamation:
by Jove, this is great"
Never before was this simple and
much worn phase so accurately and
forceful expressive. 1t was great
and nothing else!
We reached an altitude of nearly
1000 feet in a very few minutes
and it was not until then that it
came home to me that all the ex-
pected and anticipated sensations
had been woefully missing. 1t
seemed perfectly and wonderfully
natural to be floating at this alti-
tude gazing down upon Washing
ton. 1t was indeed a magnificent
view.
No thought of fear or possible
danger ever entered my mind or
that of my two amateur fellow voy-
ageurs. The terrifying fear of fall
ing, imagined by those who have
never been in balloon, seemed
like an ogre to brighten children.
My spirits caught the buoyancy of
the balloon and rose higher and
higher. Nothing seemed more silly
as l sat comfortably on the side
of the basket, than the impressions
gained from the woebegone faces
of friends, conveying the horrors
of being Sin the Jaws of death"
We picked out the points of inter
est and laughed and talked of them
as would lot of schoolboys. AS we
rose higher and ever higher and
swept off to the northward we
watched with keen interest and en-
poyment the busy life below us.
The streets were thronged with
people, all gazing skyward. Several
times before We reached the de-
sired altitude, Lieut.. Lahm threw
out ballast, and it was evcruciating-
ly funny to see the people below
scurry like rabbits for cover, as

Cigaret Rednose
the Latest Terror

LONDON, May A new peril
of the cigaret smoking habit is
made public by the British Medical
Journal. The case is that of a
youth who sought medical advice in
regard to the redness of his nose,
and was informed that the head
light condition was solely due to
his habit of exhaling the fumes of
his cigaret through his nostrils. 1t
appears that this passage of smoke
