Whether Jesse Hdgington Is married
or single. whether he is 10 or more
than q years Of age are questions
In which the probate court is con-
siderably Interested today. Yesterday
young Edgington, who has been an
inmate I'm the county jail since Sep
tember G, appeared in probate court
with Fred W. Warner, his attorney
ana applied for a marriage license to
wed Miss clara Schertzer, on whose
complaint Edgindton was arrested.
In response to the usual questions
he stated that he was but 70 years Of
age. The court Informed him that
no license could be- issued without cen
sent OF Edgington's parents. He
said he had none. Then II was sug-
gested his guardian give his consent.
Edgington had no guardian. The APP
polntment OF one was suggested but
this was demurred TO on the ground
Of the necessary expense
FINALLY the matter was dropped ana
It was decided to DO Something fur
ther today.
'Edgington was arrested upon an
affidavit fled in Justice Gompf's court
| August by Miss jchertZer. The girl
| told Justice Cpnley that she was lG
years of age, later changing this to
I1T and finally jumping II to 10.
| cdgugtou also told the justice. when
arraigned. that he was over y years
old and was married having wifi"
land child with whom he was not liv-
| ing.
This morning an effort was made
to locate the wife and child but un-
successfully. The officials are OF the
opinion that Edgngtou Is more than
II years OF age. An effort was also
made to have guardian appointed
for the boy this morning. but up'to
noon nothing had been done. ..'-.
Late this afternoon the parties had
not put in their appearance and the
marriage matterris stin hanging Mrr.

The MATTERS
COMMISSION
RECOMMENDS

Portland, Ore, Sept 20.-A sDe
cial session of the legislature 10 en-
act good roads bills has been rec
commended by Governor Vests COM
mission, named some time ago to
outline needed laws On this subject.
The commission, representative OF
all parts of the state, has JUST met in
Portland and determined what is
needed in the way of good roads
laws? The matter was declared TO
be so urgent that a special session
is necessary.
Harmony marked the sessions of
the good roads promoters. although
expressions of individual opinion was
at times rather spirited The commits
sion members realize, however, that
if much is to be accomplished. there
must be unity of action, and all this
was kept in mind.
Four bills were recommended by
the commission for passage into
law. One is an act establishing a
state highway commissioner. This
official must be a skilled road engin-
eer, and will be named by the gov
ernor. All roads built by state aid
will be under his supervision.
Another bill provides for the es-
tablishment of state highway
fund, making provision for an an
nual levy for the purpose, which will
be supp emented by a portion of Ii
cense taxes.
Another proposed measure is the
providing for the construction of
state-aid roads out of the state high
way fund. Whether the mainte-
nance of these roads shall be left to
the state or the counties was a point
that provoked debate.
The fourth bill is an act enabling
the counties to avail themselves of
the provisions of the state constitu-
tion permitting the issue of bonds
for the prosecution of road work,
upon a special election being called
by the county court upon petition
Of 10 per cent of the voters of the
county.

RENEWING COMPILATIONS
BY ABSORPTION

If your complexion is marred with
blotches, moth patches, pimples or
freckles, it's useless to putter with
powders and paints, lotions, creams
and things, in an effort to get rid of
the trouble. Unless you have some
ability as an artist, you'll mar your
appearance still more.
The new and rational way is to
take off the complexion itself, with
all its offensive marks. Just get an
ounce Of pure mercolized wax at the
druggists and use at night same as
cold cream, Remove next morning
with water and soap, following with
dash of cold water. The mercolized
wax absorbs the half-dead scarf skin
in tiaky particles. so gradually no one
guesses you're treating your face
unless it be by the result, which is
truly wonderful There's nothing
like it for restoring natural. heal
thy and beautiful complexron.-Aunt

there is no more satisfactory flower

towering, as for instance Queen
Wilhelmina. Queen Alexandria, Glor-

cannot be grown The collection at

ARRAIGNED
The JUDGE
[rN1rrp rrEss 1rAsrp 80. |

lbEAAEb EAEno ALA1Eb " lALs
Tacoma, Wash. Sept. 19.-COnvict-
ed of kidnapping his own child and
sentenced to five years in the peni-
tentiary, H. G. Herold, turned on
Judge Clifford in open court today
when his plea for mitigation failed,
and denounced him to his face, Great
ing one of the most stirring scenes
ever witnessed in the court house
here.
You are trying to railroad me to
the penitentiary," he shouted, includ.
ing court prosecutors and the at
taches Of the court. you have lied
about me and misrepresented me. I
have not had a fair deal"
Bailiff King tried to shut off Her
old's flow of oratory by putting his
hand across the convicted mans
mouth, but Herold brushed aside the
bailiff and continued the harangue
until two deputy sheriffs overpow-
cred him.
Herold charged that he had been
subjected to third degree" methods
to force him to a confession; that he
had been all but starved, kept awake
at night by brilliant light glaring
in his face until he was a nervous
wreck. He concluded by arguing
that since c. G. Nolte, his attorney,
became deputy prosecutor a few days
after his trial. that conditions were
not right for fair hearing.
Herold already has an appeal
pending in the supreme court.
