FIRST OF The
I,W,W, GANG is
ARRESTED HERE

The house of Mrs. NJ. Williams, sit
uated about a mile north of the state
fair grounds, was entered yesterday
afternoon by a tramp, who stole a
small sack Of salt A short time be-
fore the same man came to the house
and asked If he could buy some salt.
Mrs. Williams offered him small
sack and asked him five cents for 1t.
He began a TRADE Of abuse, calling
her almost every name in the tramp
vocabulary. He then left without the
salt, and short time after that Mrs
Williams went to the house Of T. w.
Steiger a short distance away. While
there she noticed a man enter the
house whom she took to be one who
had wanted the salt. She hastily went
home, and just as she entered the
back door the intruder made his es-
cape from the front door. She picked
up a revolver, which she keeps for
such fellows, and began to shoot
Four shots were fired, Mrs. Williams
aiming at the ground near the fleeing
man. Mrs. Williams is an expert
with revolver, and could easily have
brought the vagabond to the ground
had she desired to. She made hasty
investigation, and found that he had
not taken anything of value, other than
the salt. Mr. Steiger, who was work.
ing near, heard the disturbance and
rushed to the house He secured a
gun and hurried to where the escaped
man was supposed to be hiding. He
soon came upon him in company with
two Of his companions and they were
taken in charge. Word was then tel
ephoned to the sherriff's office. Sher-
lff Minto was just getting ready to
take a prisoner to the penitentiary,
so deputy Needham saw Constable
Lewis, who agreed to get some one
and go down to the scene of the dis
turbance. BY this time it was 4:3O
or o'clock. Lewis says that he then
phoned down to the Steiger resi-
dence an enquired as to the advisa-
dility of coming down after the men
an was informed that the Salem police
had been notified and would be out
there shortly. The constable and
sheriff gave the matter no further
attention, but Chief Hamilton went at
once to the scene and brought the man
to the station. His name is Ralph
osnoss and his residence appears to
be 3O9 Davis Street, Portland. He is
an /. W, W., as evidence by the card
on his person at the time of his ar
rest
A charge was made against him by
Mrs Williams under the state law for
yagrancy. The case came up before
Justice Webster this morning, when
Osnoss was given the minimum fine
of thirty days and the sentence was
suspended. He was released and was
seen later about the city with two
bother persons, presumably his former
companions. When asked as to whet-
her they were members of the |. W.
w. they replied with considerable
pride that they were and that there
was considerable number of the
members near the city and would
likely begin their agitations here soon
They were warned by the police to
leave the city Immediately, but IL Is
apparent that they mean to remain
and begin their agltations. Salem
Will in all probability have an exper-
ience with this very undesirable slass
Of people.

Every day, just before the sun
came out, Aurora finished her work.
She paused only long enough to see
the reflection OF his golden chariot
wheels, and to be certain that he
was about to drive his prancing
horses across the heavens. AS soon
as she had made sure Of this, Aurora
gathered together her brushes, picked
up her scarlet dye pot and stole
softly away.
Once, just as she was finishing her
morning work, aurora CHANGED to
look down into green earth field.
Admidst the waving grasses lay d
slender youth.

Every morning he watches me as

i love Tithonus dearly"
Just at this moment the sun came
In sight. and hastily Aurora, trailing
her brush full OF scarlet paint across
the heavens, ran away, leaving long
line OF scarlet across the road upon
which travelled the sun.
Each morning thereafter Aurora
looked down and smiled at Tithonus
