SONOMA LAWYER LOST IN HILLS Searching Parties Seek Orlow O. Webber of Santa Rosa. Leaves His Camp on South Eel River and Fails to Return. Special Dispatch to The Call. SAXTA ROSA, July 30.—An alarming | | report has been received in this city re- | garding the disappearance of ex-District | Attorney Orlow O. Webber. With a party | of friends he had been hunting an South | Eel River, in the extreme northern por- | tion of Mendocino County. On Monday | night one of Webber's companions came | | into & dance hall at Covelo, where a dance | | was in progress, and announced that | Webber had been missing for three days nd that the efforts of his companions to locate him had proven unavalling. He re: | quested that those present assist in th | search and twenty young men agreed they | would start in search of the missing man t daylight Tuesday morning. The circumstances surrounding the dis- appearance are simple. Webber rose one | morning and found his mule missing. He | refused to wait for breakfast and started in pursuit of the beast. He took his gun | | with him in order that he might shoot | deer should the opportunity present itself. | | His companions believed when he failed ! to return the first day that he had found | | Night came on and Webber did not re- | turn. Finally the mule came into camp and then the fears of the companlons! were aroused. They searched that night | and the two following days In vain and then decided to call for assistance. Their | camp was located on top of the.range of mountains near Covelo, at a place| named Signal Point, and the dancers | who agreed to render assistance in finding | |the missing man went to that place before dawn to begin the search. The news was brought to this city by a young man who attended. the dance. Webber is a very large man, and while | carrying much avoirdupois, is not easily fatigued. He is troubled with somnol- ! ence and may possibly have taken a nap | and then missed his way on awaking. | The country in which he is hunting is | one of the roughest in the State and one in which a man can easily lose his way. The hillsides are covered with a heavy growth of timber and underbrush and there are innumerable small valleys which | prove deceptive to thé hunter. | Webber is a prominent attorney of the | Sonoma County bar and has been elected to many positions of honor in this city and county. He has served as City At- torney and District Attorney and stands high in the councils of the Republican party in county and State politics. H has hosts of friends in this city and fur- | ther news is anxiously awaited here. | There is telegraphic communication with | Covelo, but nothing could be learned from | that place to-day. The hunters are many | miles from Covelo in the mountains. el e s ARRESTS MEN THOUGHT | TO HAVE HELD UP CAR | Oregon Sheriff Thinks He Has Four | of the Men Who Robbed | Passengers. PORTLAND, Or., July 30.—Sheriff Story | has arrested four men who are charged | with holding up and robbing an electric | car of the Oregon City line within the | city limits on the night of July 4. The| men are Ira Landers, Arthur Hicks, Earl McIntosh and David S8immons. The Sher- | iff has been quietly working on the case for the last two weeks. On each of the men arrested was found some article of | jewelry, which, the Sheriff claims, was | taken from the passengers of the electric car, and he feels sure that he has the| right men. | About midnight of July 14 six masked | men boarded an electric_car of the Ore- | | gon City line and shot B. F. Day, then | went through the car and compeiled the | thirty passengers to hand over their | money, watches and jewelry. Since that | time many people have been held up and robbed in the city and the Sheriff thinks | he has now broken up the gang, which has been terrorizing the community. Day, | who has recovered from his wounds, | | identified McIntosh as the leader of the highwaymen who held up the car. —_— e————— !

BISHOFP'S PILLS bave been In use over B years by the leaders of Mormon Church and followers. Positively cure the arrest and subsequent release of the Roy Boyd, aged 18, and Rosa Fields, aged 15, were the hero and heroine of this escapade. Young Boyd is employed as a butcher in Fresno and lives with his mother. The girl is the daughter of a street car em- ploye in the Raisin City, and while her mother was on a visit to relatives in Mis- souri she was her father's housekeeper. Last night the two youngsters disap- peared from their homes, and taking the Owl, came to Bakersfield, where they stopped at the Arlington Hotel, regis- tering as “Thomas Brown and wife of San Francisco.” Barly this morning City Marshal Tibbet received a telephone message from the Fresno Chief of Police stating that a warrant had been issued for their arrest on the complaint of the girl's father, who charged her with the embezzlement of $530, the entire amount of his savings, which he had committed to her care. When the officers reached the hotel the birds had flown. It was learned that the girl had purchased a ticket to Joplin, Mo., and had departed on the Santa Fe over- land east. The young man was arrested at the depot this aiternoon as he was about to take the train for Fresno. He was badly scared when told of the charge of embezzlement, but stoutly maintained that he knew nothing of it. So far as he knew the girl had but $30 in bills, and he did not knew how she obtained that. Only $7 was found on his person when he was searched. He acknowledged the elope- ment and declared that the girl was going to Joplin, where her mother is staying, to ask permission to marry him. When the girl's father at Fresno learned of his daughter’'s departure for the East he immediately started in pursuit, abandon- battle flags and expects to make the most creditable showing in the parade, Abe Patterson Post was organized Oc- tober 15 1867, and is flourishing with 200 active members on the roll.

It is estimated that fully 4000 Chi- nese have landed at Guaymas within the last sixty days and have been given em- ployment. ———— Incendiary Fire at Madison. WOODLAND, July 3.—A Madison dis- patch to the Democrat says: A flre oc- curred about 3 o'clock this morning on Fred Market's farm, seven miles north of here and seven miles west of Blacks. John Ralph’s crew of hay balers were at work in the hay fleld. The hay press was de- stroyed, also about seventy tons of hay, twenty-one tons of which was baled. There seems to be no doubt that the fire was of incendiary origin. —_——— Portrait of a famous California heiress the Wasp's gallery this week. in . o——————29 FRAMING BRYSON PICTURES THE “LADY IN GREEN,” Next Sunday’s Call.

The position of the | skeletons and the fact that the rifle was pumped out and its lever down proves that there must have been a terrific en- | counter between man and beast. | An examination of the gun at Republic | skowed that it has stood a year or more | of exposure. The find recalls to resfdents | of Republic that two men have disappear- | ed from that town within three years and all trace of them been lost. One | young man started for his father's ranch | in Okanogan County and was never heard of afterward. Another man left Republic for Spokane, via Myers Falls. He went alone, carrying a rifle, and although a letter was expected from him from My- ers Falls, no word was ever received. It is believed that this man perished in the | fatal encounter with the cougar. To-day Sheriff Lowry went to Mount Gibraitar, hoping to discover some clew | ghat will assist in identification. —_———— College Women Fight Fire.
