Crimes by Paroicd Men
According TO Mr.. Varney the
crimes committed by paroled men,
which have caused them to be re-
turned to prison or to put them in
the fugitive status. are usually OF
minor nature. Really serious crimes
that have been committed by these
men. beavers, could be counted on

Few are Orcgonians

The policy OF the prison relative
to keeping men in the state when
they leave the penitentiary is chang
ing for the reason that a very small
percentage OF them are Oregonians
The records show thh some time
back when the prison population
was 324 only fifty-seven of the pris-
oners we're oregonians. Now when
man is through his term in the
state prison he is encouraged to
leave the state.
In writing up the case of any
man who is slated TO go before the
parole board for consideration. the
parole officer is required to- submit
a statement from the Judge who
presided at his trial and from the
district attorney who prosecuted
him; also a statement from the man
himself.

WOMAN HAS STOLEN P.O. FUND
 IN CHARGE

Bisbee, June 10-Postal inspectors today arrested Mrs. Hattie Luke in connection with their investigation of the postOffice robbery here on April 3, following an alleged statement to them by Matt Keaton, confessed ac- complice of former Postmaster Lon E. Bailey in the frame-up" robbery, that he had given Bailey's half of the loot to Mrs. Luke.
 Mrs. Luke was arrested on her ranch in the Sulphur Springs valley about IS miles from here. She is held in jail in lieu of $10,0O0 bond
 Gave Her BaiIey,s Share
 keaton, in his original confession to postal inspectors, made no mention of Mrs. Luke Last night, however, he told the inspectors that he had given Baileys share of the loot to Mrs Luke to hold for Bailey.
 He also gave Mrs. Luke $500 said Keaton, and assured her an additional $500. Keaton told postal inspectors he refrained from duplicating Mrs. Luke in his first confession because Bailey knew all about it. and, he said, he wanted Bailey to be the first to mention the woman.
 Bailey Talks to Woman
 Yesterday afternoon, postal inspect ors say. they recevied a message from Bailey, now held in jail at Tucson that he wanted to talk to Mrs. Luke over the long distance telephone. His re- quest was granted. During his con versation with Mrs. Luke, postal iIi- spectors say, Bailey told her to tell the postal inspectors anything she knew about the money or what Keat- on had done with it.
 Denies Knowledge of Money
 Mrs. Luke tonight denied any know ledge of the whereabouts of Bailey's alle?ed share of the stolen $40, ,09t. She will be arraigned before United States Commissioner James Allison here within the next few days. according 10 postal inspectors.

ROAD ROLLER ON RAMPAGE.

A gasoline road roller, belonging to
the Town of Wauwatosa and being
used by the city on North Main street.
started to roll down hill last week and
tried to roll everything that happened
to be in the way. Two autos We're di-
rected in its path and as is usually the
case, one of the machines being a
Ford. Now this Ford looked like easy
meat, so the roller shook wicked roll
and proceeded to sneak up on said
Ford. the latter being accustomed to
shakes and rattles looked up in the
nick of time, turned around and the
roller slid by ran into Jackson, car
ried ii along thirty or forty feet and
damaged Jackson quite badly before it
could be brought under control.
Moral--Never try to rattle a Ford!
