YOUNG BOYS RUN
AWAY FROM HOME
LEE AND PHILLIP PINKERsoN DE-
TANNED ON WAY TO
PULASKI.

Two boys giving the names Of Lee
and Phillip Pinkerson, and their
home as Nashville, came to town yes
terday, "hoboeing" their way to Pu-
laski. Last night one Of them, Phil
Up, appeared on the stage at the Gr9nd
Theatre in a song. Their father. it
seems, discovered their absence from
home last night, and started on a
searh for them. Arriving at Frank
lin, he learned of their intended trip
to Pulaski, but a telegram to the po-
lice of that place ELECTED the infoI ma
ton that they had not been seen
there. Then he telephoned the po-
lice officers of Columbia, and found
that they were here. Officers Lam
caster and Barker arrested the boys
last night, and are holding them for
the arrival of their father.
The oldest boy is twelve years old,
and the younger one is only eight
But they are old on the ways of the
world, at least that is the impression
which the police officers have CLEANED.
This morning Phillip stuck his Lead
up to the window of the screen, and
piped in thin little voice, "Say, Mis-
ter, let US go over there across the
street and get drink of coca-cola." "
They were told that they were too
young to be drinking coca-eola, when
the boy remarked, sacastically that
they could find nothing else to drink.
1t developed later that the younger
boys name was Phillip Weinstein,
and his father, l. Weinstein, tailor
of Nashville, came to Columbia yes
terday and returned to Nashville with
his son. He claimed that the older
boy had mo class" and that he en-
ticed his son away from home

sues to Recover Farm.

The first case to command the at
tention of the court was that of
Charles f, Elgin against S. H. snyd .
er. This suit is brought by the plain
tiff to recover from defendant farm
which in 1907 he exchanged for stock
owned by defendant in the Salem
Box Factory. The exchange occurred
on October 10, and on the following
day the panic came in the finan-
eial world, and a series of holidays
lasting for months was declared by
the governor of the state. In the
month of March Of the following year
the factory went into bankruptcy. I'll
gin now seeks to recover back his
farm on the ground that the value Of
the stock in the factory was ,misrep-
resented to him at the time Of the
trade.

Oregon Kept Faith.


The opening of the season was
welcomed not alone by the fisher
men and the fishing companies but
by Master Fish Warden McAllister
and his deputies as it marked the
close of bitter war which had been
raging between the two ever since
the fish board ordered the season
closed on the Clackamas and Will
lamette rivers from March 1, until
May 1. The Columbia was closed
during this period by law passed
by the legislature but through mad
vertence the Clackamas and the VIII
lamette were omitted from it's pro-
visions. 1t became apparent to the
board that to permit fishing in those
streams would, not alone have the
effect of rendering nugatory the law
with relation to the subject on the
Columbia, but that it would be
breaking faith with the fish authori-
ties of the state of Washington as it
had been agreed that the laws of
the two states should be uniform
on the subject and relying on its
own prerogatives the board ordered
the streams closed. This was the
signal of bitter war between the
Master Fish Warden and the fisher
men and in one way and another the
subject has been in the courts ever
since but the fish law will be passed
by the next legislature, closing these
streams for the same period of time
that the Columbia is closed.
VIII Patrol Streams.
While the opening of the season
has terminated this war there still
remains much work for the master
fish warden and his deputies to do
and minor clashes between them and
the fishermen are certain to occur
from time to time. The law pro-
vides that fishing must close at G
o'clock each Saturday evening and
that 1t must not be resumed until 6
O'Clock on the Sunday evening fol-
lowing, and it is the intention of the
master fish warden to see that this
law is strictly enforced. Looking to
this end he will have two boats con-
stantly patroling the rivers and a.
third will be used in checking up the
license on gear of all kinds,
The season did not only open the
first OF the month to the seine Ash
ermen but also to those who use
hook and line and by them it was
also welcomed and they are making
good use of it, as hundreds of an
gIers can be seen each day along
their favorite streams.
