ELOPERS ARE IN DALLAS.
McMinnville Girls Mother Has Been
TRYING to Find Daughter.

Mr.. and Mrs. Harold Starr arrived
in Dallas Wednesday and are visit
ing at the home of Mr.. Starts par
ents in Salt Creek. This is the cou-
pie which the girls mother, Mrs.
Eliza J. Orchard of McMinnville, has
been making frantic efforts to find
through the Portland dallies for the
past week. To friends here We'd
nesday the couple admitted they were
married.
According to the mothers story
which appeared in the Portland pa
pers, her daughter, Goldie Orchard,
disappeared from her home in Nc
Minnville on January 81, with Starr.
She stated upon leaving that she was
going to Dundee to visit an uncle, but
when she was not heard from for sew
eral days, the elopement was sus-
pected and efforts made to find the
daughter. The mother stated the girl
was but 16 years old and that she
had made efforts to break up the as
sociation between the two.

Automobile Licenses.

Mr.. Editor: In a recent issue of
your paper you mentioned the fact
that the automobile licenses for 1916
had just been received by the county
treasurer. AS this fund was for col
lections that must have been made
during the fore part Of 1916 (the Ii
censes being collected in advance) =,
the question arises: Where was Polk
county's $25O0 or more all during the
year 1916? And where was the $780,
600 that belonged to the several coun-
ties of the state, all this time? Of
course it is presumed that it is in
its regular channels; but it looks to
one not fully advised on all these
matters, as if that money might do
the several counties of the state a
little good if returned to them at
shorter intervals. Inquirer.

Methodist Church Notes.

Special services to be held, Begin
ming week after next.
Last Sunday evenings services
were made especially delightful by
some extra music from the choir, un-
der the supervision of Leader Claire
Snyder. In addition to the voices
four young men on violin and cornet,
helped to make really good music.
The Ladies Aid is raising the nee
essary money to have the church au-
ditorium repainted, papered, and new
lights installed that will prove more
satisfactory than the old ones. The
work will probably be started next
Monday.
At the meeting of the official board
Wednesday evening it seemed to be
the prevailing sentiment that the
large pipe organ be sold, if salts
factory price is offered, and the mon
ey be used to make other necessary
repairs. The church has lately been
without an orgamst OF the callbre
necessary for its use, and it is fear
ed that with disuse the organ will so
deteriorate in value as to make its
disposal of difficult matter later on.
If the renovations to the church
auditorium are completed, it is the
intention of Pastor Brown to COM
mence a series of special meetings a
week from Monday night, to con-
tinue as long as results are forth
coming. The pastor will be assisted
in the work by Mrs. Gardner, of
Lakeview, a lady who has had con-
siderable experience in eyangelistic
work and comes well recommended.
The regular services will take place
next Sunday.

COMPROMISE IS ASKED


\SohtiuuCu llOlH pdSO OhC/
Judge Kirkpatrick said that Inde-
pendence and Falls City had sent en-
dorsements of the Polk county court IS
actions and had told the court to
hold for concrete bridge. Walter
l.. Tooze, Jr., repeated the sentiment
Of Falls City people and suggested
that West Salem should send repre-
sentatives to Salem business men. He
said: "Judge Bushey is to blame for
this situation; it isn't Marion coun-
ty nor Salem business men. Ii Sa-
lem were appealed to, it would help
Judge Buhey knows that you people
are in hurry for a bridge and he
is working on you, but if you have
any fighting blood in your veins you
will not fall for it. You should de-
mand a concrete structure.
Part of the meeting was consumed
in explaining the way the meeting
in West Salem, Saturday, had aris-
en-. Assurances were made that there
was no thought of secession, lbUt
merely desire for action and bridge
and suggestion of some means Of com
promise which would make possible
the immediate letting of a contract.

REDEEMING A LUMBER CAMP.
Measure of Man" is Rugged Ro.
nance of the Woods.

Expelled from theological school be-
cause he was temperamentally and
habitually unfit for the ministry, John
Fairmoadow Travelled West as far as
the trains could take him. He land
ed in a lumber camp the morning
Pattie's father was to be buried.
Pattie had prayed that parson might
be sent to give the body of the old
woodsman Christian burial. Pattie
sees in the clerically appearing Fair
meadow an answer to her prayer
and Fairmeadow, unprotestingly, per-
forms what he feels is his duty. Thus
established as the "Sky Pilot" of the
rough and untutored woodsmen, Fair
meadow grows in popularity and
through series of exciting adven-
lures gains the soubriquet Of "The
Fighting Parson." Under the good
influence of Pattie and inspired by
his own desire to overcome his tenn
shortcomings, Fairmead-
ow continues to successfully masquer-
ade as a minister and unquestionably
does good service to the community.
J. Warren Kerrigan will interpret
the role of Fairmeadow in the Blue
bird photoplay to be exhibited at the
Orpheum on Saturday, under the title
of "The Measure of Man." Louise
Lovely, another star of Bluebird, will
be his leading lady, impersonating the
pretty mountain belle who has so
much to do in shaping Fairmeadow's
destiny.

The pulpit of the Presbyterian
church will be filed next Sunday
morning by Hon. B. N. Hicks, super
intendent of the bureau of Law En-
forcement recently organized in con-
nection with the Anti-Saloon league
of Oregon. Mr.. Hicks, who heads the
new department, has been practicing
law in Oregon for the past four
years. He came from Oklahoma,
where he had previously practiced for
several years. In 1907 he left his
office and took charge of one fourth
of the state in the campaign which
made Oklahoma dry. For two years
thereafter he spoke for the Anti-Sa-
loon league frequently and organized
law enforcement clubs and actively
prosecuted law violators. The Law
Enforcement bureau proposes to take
care of all law violators, both per-
sons and places, to keep strict watch
for bootleggers and smugglers, and
to render aid and advice to new and
inexperienced prosecuting attorneys
throughout the state.
The evening service will be con-
ducted by the pastor. The third ad-
dress on the "Christian ArmOr,"
with the theme: "0The Coat of Mail, ;"
will be given. The choir will render
special music at the morning and
evening services.

Fisherman Dead in His Boat.

Georgetown, Jan. 25.-George-
towns lone fisherman, around whom
has hung mystery during his four
or five years residence here, was
found dead in his boat at the mouth
of Whites creek this morning. A ne
gro customer calling at the craft of
the old man, which served as dwell
ing and residence, failed to receive an
answer and dropping alongside raised
the window and put his hand on the
lifeless body of Henry Johnson. The
deceased was of either Norwegian or
Swedish nationality and the English
name was evidently a corruption. The
negro hastened to the city, Whites
creek being only about four miles up
the Sampit river, and reported his
find. Deputies from the sherif's Of
fee responded and the "Sallie,' the
home of the old man, was brought to
the city, and this afternoon the body
was removed to an undertaking estah-
lishment and prepared for burial. An
inquest was held by Coroner A. F.
Mcdonald and a verdict returned that
the deceased came to his death from
natural causes. On his person was
found four twenty-dollar gold pieces
and bank book showing a deposit
of about $500 in the Peoples Bank.
He is known to have a daughter and
son in Philadelphia and an effort is
being made to communicate with
them. During his residence here he
has had few, if any, intimates, but
has piled the profession of fisher,
man and those with whom he has
come in contact speak highly of him
He always anchored the "Sallie' al
the foot of Orange street and many
of the most prominent citizens o'
Georgetown have been his customers
