WEALTHY PORTLAND MERCHANT
GIVES MUCH TO CHARITY

Portland, July 14.-Three benevo.
lent institutions share in the will OF
Solomon Lipman, recently deceased,
which was admitted to probate be-
fore the county court this morning.
The First Hebrew Benevolent society
receives by its terms $4,000; the Neigh
borhood House of South Portland,
$1,000. and the Baby's Home, $1,000.
All of the property belonging to the
estate is bequeathed to l. n. and w.
F. Lipman, sons of the deceased mer-
chant to be held by them in trust un-
til the death of Mrs. Lipman, when the
estate is to be divided among the three
/. N. Lipman, w. F. Lipman
and Mrs. Rose Heller.
The will provides that Mrs. Lipman
shall receive the sum of $1,000 n
month during her life time, and in ad-
dition the residence property, silver
ware and furniture. A codicil to the
will provides that Mrs. Heller shall
receive the dividends arising from the
200 shares of the capital stock of Lip
man, Wolfe & Co.
No statement is made in the papers
filed with the county clerk, as to the
value of the estate as no inventory of
the property has yet been taken.
The will was filed by N. r. Simon
Of the law firm of Beach & Simon.

ELSIE SIGEL POISONED
BEFORE BEING STRANGLED

New York, July IA chemical
analysis by Professor George Fergu-
son, of Columbia university, has de-
tected the presence of poison in tn,
vital organs Of Elsie Sigel, who was
murdered in the room OF Leon Ling,
and whose body was packed in a
trunk. Further chemical tests are
being made to determine the nature
of the poison. This disclosure by
Professor Ferguson confirms the evil
dence submitted to the police 10 days
ago that Chinaman tried to buy poi
son at drugstore near the Chinese
restaurant over which the girl was
murdered, and that this effort to pro-
cure the poison was made on the day
before Elsie Sigel was killed. An
other drugstore near the restaurant
filled prescription for powerful
irritant poison the night before the
girl was murdered.
The result of the chemical analysis
on the viscera is the first absolute
proof the police have had that Elsie
Sigel was poisoned before her body
was strapped up and packed in the
trunk. A postmortem examination
led the coroner to declare that the
girl had been strangled to death.
Strangulation might have been the
direct cause of death, but Professor
Ferguson has established the fact
that the VOung miSSiOnarv worlar
was under the influence of power

Unknown Man Suicides.

Portland.-A middle aged, well
dressed man, put a dramatic end TO
his own life at Moore's crossing on
the Vancouver carline at II o'clock
this morning. In his pocket was a
card with the name e. F. Turner.
George Bowman and Bert Kale, two
young men living at 36S Fremon,
street, noted a tall, heavily built man
rapidly approaching them walking on
the street-car trestle near Hayden is
land. When less than 200 feet from
them he stopped suddenly. pulled re-
volver, and firing rapidly, put four
bullets through his left breast.
1t was Turner's evident intention
to throw himself from the trustle for
he staggered toward the edge even as
he was firing, but death came too
soon and he fell with but groan,
spattering the ties of the streetcar
track with blood.
A Vancouver car which came up at
the moment carried the body to the
morgue. The only thing of value
found in his pockets was an old brass
watch, the only clue to his identity
a much thumbed card bearing his
name and address. "52 1-2 Russell

McCredie Won, Wear Gown.

Husum. Wash.-Judge W. w. Nc
Credie, presiding judge of the su-
perior court, of which this county
constitutes a part of the circuit, still
refuses to wear gown while holding
court. He is stated to have said that
he will not wear one before the Sep
tember jury session, and in all pro-
liability not then if the state did not
buy it. The judge says:
II have written to the state auditor
asking him if he will accept vouchers
for gowns but have received no reply.
In regard to the violation of the law
being a misdemeanor, have not look
ed the matter up. The law itself car
ries no penalty, but there may be Il
provision making it a misdemeanor for
the violation of it," From the fact
that the gown would not be a part Of
his regular raiment, Judge McCredie
holds that it is unfair for the state to
cause him the expense.

Writing for Oregon Jobs.

Portland.-"Im married, don't
drink a drop, cuss a little and work
like the devil" constitutes one SEN
tence from an original application
for a hardware salesman's job receiv-
ed this morning by the publicity bu-
reau of the Commercial. The writer
was an easterner, who explained his
desire to come to Oregon by saying
that he had learned it it was the best
place on the globe and that he wanted
to get out among good people. The
expressions were so quantity put that
the clerical force of the club adjourn
ed business for a prolonged laugh
fest.
The expression of the hardware
salesman is a superior sample of thu
thousands of applications for work
being received each day by Manager
Richardson of the Commercial club.
People in Haine. Texas, California
and intermediate points are planning
to come to Portland. Hundreds of
letters have been received from men
who wish to buy land in central Ore
gon as soon as transportation facili-
ties are provided.
