Capital Journal Special Service.l
Dallas, Ore, April 6.--At a meeting
of interested citizens held in the Dallas
Armory, Wednesday night preliminary
steps were taken to form a Home
Guard organization in this city. The
meeting Rad been called by Sheriff
John W. Orr, who has been author
lied by Governor Withycombe to or
ganize such a force for protection of
property in this city and county from
the possible attacks by I. W. w. and
other similar enemies of the govern
ment. Sheriff Orr presided at the
meeting ard appointed L. D. Brown to
act as temporary secretary. Mr.. Brown,
r.. K. Pinsecki and John R. Sibley
were appointed a committee to draw
up a code for the government of the
organization and have the same ready
for presentation at a meeting tonight
to be held in the circuit court room of
the court house. The company will
have an active membership Of about 81
men with an honorary list Of several
more. 1t is planned to hold drills one
night each week and all members must
be at the drills unless holding an ex-
cuse from the captain. Officers will
probably be elected at the meeting to-
night and active work started next
week. Polk County will probably have
two such organizations as a number of
Independence citizens are contemplate
ing the formation of such an organiza.
tion in their city.

Skull and Crown Stolen
From Tomb Of Royalty

Sacramento, Cal, April 5. - The
skull, crown and shield of King Lilua-
lani, one Of the ancient kings of Ha-
waii, stolen from his royal tomb near
Honolulu, are alleged to be in Sacra-
.mento in the home Of a member of the
crew of a United States torpedoboat
which recently visited the Hawaiian
Islands.
According to Julius w. Asai, a dep
uty sheriff of Honolulu; who arrived
in Sacramento, after three weeks
searching for a elew to the missing
royal skull, two sailors from the tor.
pedoboat broke into tlIs tomb and
stole the relics. The taking Of the kings
skull has greatly aroused the old Ha.
waiian families, who have demanded
that the grewsome relic be returned.
Asai obtained a search warrant
from Justice of the Peace 0'Brien TO-
search a house on M street, where he
believes the skull, if not the crown
and shield, to be secreted. The crown
and shield were gold studded with
gems. 1t was the ancient island Gus
tom to inter his crown and shield with
the body of each king upon his death.
Trace of the second of the sailors
who committed the royal depreciation
has not yet been found by Asai, who
claims, however that the Sacramento
sailor was the one who last had the
skull in his possession.
It was the first time that a search
warrant for a royal skull had been
issued in this county or in California

building was condemned last Monday
by County Health Officer Stockton
who, accompanied by County Superin-
tendent Sweet was here on a tour of
inspection. DR.. Stockton will submit his
report to the state board of health for
its consideration. Superintendent Sweet
declared no school could be held in the
building until the same had been made
fit and sanitary and that she would
have closed the building last year had
the school not been well advanced when
she knew of its insanitary condition.
The improvements to be mao before
the building can be occupied are as fol
lows: The basement filled up; new
heating plant installed; and sanitary
toilets put in.
DR.. Wentworth and Fred Huffman,
the members of tbs school board living
in town, said there was no way out of
the situation than to issue bonds as the
district funds were in the red at the
present time. Mr. Huffman estimated
the cost fthe improvements suggest
ed to be between $3.50 and $160.

Ed. Thyring, young man who sever

here and confessed that he had failed Il
to register for the draft ON June 5, 1917
was indicted into military service Sun
day, and departed Monday morning

Thyring, who had resided in Montana
declared he was glad for the opportunity
of entering the army, rather than face
trial for not registering. His home at
one time was in Keuterville, but his
parents now reside in Ferdinand.
1t seemed to me that everyone that
/ met was after me" declared Thyring
to a deputy sheriff Sunday. He de-
clared he felt much relieved to be per-
mitted to enter the military, for he
felt that thereby he would be in good
standing again with his country.
Thyring wore long beard, which
made him appear to be a man much
older than he really is. Before he left,
be had his whiskers shaved. 1t is be-
ieved he wore the beard in order to
conceal his youth.
