HOW BABY, DESERTED

they were travelling and that under
the present circumstances they
could not very well keep the child
with them.
This man was 'Dorondo." You
may remember "Dorondo," the
actor, who appeared at the Pan
tages theater last winter in a "jail
breaking act, the man who night
after night publicly exhibited his
wonderful feat for which he receiv-
ed no small sum. The woman was
his wife
They paid So in advance for the
first week, and then they left town.
As no more communication came
from the parents, the officials at
the home took steps to locate them,
and a letter was sent asking for
the allowance necessary for the
support of the child Dorondo wrote
one letter in which he stated that
he was surprised that the home, a
charitable institution, should de-
mand money from him with which
to care for his own baby.
All efforts to obtain further COM
munication proved fruitless, and
the baby became one OF the edpend-
ent little waits of the home. When
the child was taken i'll further eff
fort was made to locate the actor.
When death came kilograms were
sent in quest of the heartless
father, but they were unanswered,
and the little baby, at the expense
of the home, was laid in its final
resting place.

COUNCIL SPLITS

Mr.. Dudley, its lawyer, showed his
displeasure, and said that if be were
forced to accept a common user
clause the franchise would be
dropped and the city entered over
some ether line.
The city council last night. by a
vote of to ., turned down the ef-
fort of Council man Peter Nelson to
have the North Coast franchise sub
mitted to vote or the people, the
result of such election to be bind
ing alike on people and railroads
The only supporter Nelson had for
his resolution was Councilman
Funk. Those voting against the
question of the popular approval Of
the franchise were Councilmen Cart
wright Shaefer. Gray, Mohr, Dalke,
Belshaw and Lambert During the
discussion Belshaw said that in the
final passage of the franchise he
would support the motion of Nelson,
provided he omitted the clause that
required the railroads to pay the
cost of the election. Nelson an
nounced later that he would revive
his motion agin, with the compen-
sation clause cut out.
The Lambert common user clause
for the North Coast was not salts

Councilman Funk served notice
last night that when the considera-

TWO SHARES
LOST CONTROL
FOR NORMANS
(By United Press Leased Wire) :.

(By United Press Leased Wire)
PORTLAND, June cit was
learned today that two shares OF
stock, worth about S40O on the
open market, which were swung at
the last moment at the annual
meeting of stockholders of the
Hotel Portland yesterday, enabled
Day brothers to obtain control of
the corporation, and to GUST Nor
man brothers, although they con-
troll more than 49 per cent of the
capital stock.
AS an added feature to the stu
alton as it stands today, Attorney
George Joseph May, as the result
of Day brothers getting control,
may make an effort to compel the
Normans and other stockholders to
return the dividend of $50 a share,
which was declared from out of the
fund of 100000 borrowed primarily
by the hotel company for the pur-
pose of making improvements.

THELATEST EXHIBITION


for five minutes, finally the
conductor and the motorman
tried to throw the man off and
then there was trouble. After
a struggle. in which the carmen
failed to GUST the man, the po-
lice were teiephoned to as the
final aid in all controversies
where the rights Of the corpora
ton are involved. A police
man met the car down town,
told the man never to do it
again, and he was permitted to
continue his way unmolested.
The next night two inspectors
were on the car when this partic
ular insureent go on. They were
waiting for him. When he demand
ed transfer, and the conductor re.
fused to give it, the man refused to
pay. Then the inspectors made a
lunge for him, expecting to bounce
him from the car. The passenger
saw that he was outnumbered, four
to one, and coughed up the nickel.
The next night the insurgent was
on the rear of the car when the
festivities started, The conductor
having him spotted, lost no time
and started to go after the man
by the abck OF the coat collar. Be
fore the conductor could get his
hold the passenger had the con
ductor by the throat and choked
him over the back end of the car
until his tongue stuck out. The
conductor said nothing further
about the fare.
This protest over the unfair rule
of the Traction company still con
tinues. Inspectors now ride the
cars from the north side every
night in anticipation Of trouble, Be
fore renewing further hostilities
the protestants against the transfer
rule may take it up with the cit!
council. And then, in the mean
time, they may conclude to wipe VI
the ground with a couple of in
spectors, as the kindly feeling
toward those gentlemen has no
improved.
