CANON CITY, Colo., July 15. Calling malediction of most high upon the Roman priesthood, and shouting in Italian "Long live Italy; and long live the Protestanti,' CeUcppe Alia, the mprder of Father Leo Hcinricha wa carried to hi death trap exactly at 8:30 tonight and mild the extreme penalty of hit m crime. Perhaps a more sensational and thrilling scene wa never beheld by any of the 96 persons present than the execution of thia misguided mur derer whoie cries were only hushed by the automatic springing of the mechanism which forever' silenced the tongue that cried for vengeance against those whom Alia considered to be the destroyers of his home and happiness. At 4 o'clock Warden Cleghorn, through an interpreter read the death warrant to Alia. Contrary to expectations he show ed not the slightest emotion. When the reading was finished he said: "All right, I am ready to die now." At 6 o'clock supper was served to the prisoner. This he ate with ap parent relish. At 7 o'clock Alia was notified tint the. execution would take place in an hour. Alia said he had no regret at killing the priest; and said he felt that Heinrich was the man he bad been hunting for, and that he had worked for him in Por tugal, and he was sure he had killed the right man. lie said he did not believe in Cod, for if there were one he would not have been permitted in the present predicament. He had no fault to find with the law, but said that the priest did wrong in breaking .tip his family. Just before 8:30 Alia was conducted to the execution house where the black cap and nose were adjusted. During this proccedure Alia became frantic and rent the air with yells and curses against priest hood, Alia was placed on the trap and after a prayer by Chaplain Blake the water of the automatic mechanism released the great weight and exactly at 8:30 the body was jerked into the air, Unfortunately his neck was not broken and he died of strangulation. After 19 minutes the bodv was cut down and he was pronounced dead.

In the explosion of one of the tanks two workmen who were fighting the fire in an effort to keep it off the pumping station were over whelmed by burning oil. One was instantly killed and the body con sumed by flames. The other crazed with the plain and blinded with the oil broke from his rescuers and rush ed madly back into the burning oil. The fire started at midnight presum ably from crossed electric wires. LATER SANTA BARBARA, July 16.

By issuing the call tomorrow, the notice will reach atl the committee men affected, and they will have time to assemble- in the Rose City a few days after Chairman Cake re-; turns from Colorado springs, ims he expects to do about June-25, as the conference will consume only a day or two at the summer" resort which the national chairman desig nated as the place of meeting.

ASTORIA, MUM H Wk m HILLS SEVEN Ten Others Are Seriously Injured in Wreck 6 STILL IN THE MINE Several Injured Likely to Die- Gas Explosion Probably the Cause ALMOST ALL ARE AMERICANS The Mine Was Said to be Gaseous by Mine Inspector's Last Report Reicuinar Parties Have Mara Battle. POTTSVILLE. Pa.. July 15.-An explosion of gas in shaft No. 1, Wil liamstown colliery, operated by the Susquehanna Coal Company, resulted this afternoon in the instant death of seven miners, six nave Dcen lancu r t out dead, while three more are still inside. The known dead: JAMES BOWMAN. CHARLES RICKERT. BERLEY. STAKUM. ARTHUR HAWK. Ten others were taken from the mine badly burned and torn by the force of the explosion, and it is feared that several of them will die. It is with great difficulty that resr cuing parties could go down into the shaft, and here is little hope for the six men still in the burning workings being rescued alive.. The "dead still in the mine are John Reilly, John Whittelle and Charles Rickert. Their bodies cannot be re covered before tomorrow. Business places at Wiiliamstown were oroirtptjy closeJ and tfc resi dents of the tGWtt htufied to the col liery, about a mile dtstafil There were scenes of wildest COS fusion as women and children gath ered about, screaming and crying, and as each body was brought to the surface there was a rush by the crowd to ascertain the identity of the one recovered and whether he was alive or dead. The storehouse at the colliery was converted into a morgue. The injur ed were "removed to the company's office and there given treatment. The district mine inspector in his last annual report pronounced the mine gaseous. Cake will be R. E. Williams, of Polk county, who is national com mitteeman for Oregon. Hitchcock telegraphed for both to be present at the gathering, the trip to be made at the expense of thet Republican Na tional Committee. Hitchcock will outline" what he expects of the state chairmen' and the National commit temen in the states west of the Mis souri river, so that there can be no misunderstanding between the two officers, and in order that they can work in harmony and with a thor ough understanding. The1 Taft campaign will be conduct ed from' Portland and headquarters will be established in this city not later than a month from today. As soon aV the headquarters are opened the program will be arranged for the four presidential electors, and they are expected' to take the stump not later than September I. vwmcr cierentn and Commercial" Verdict Returned by Jury of Death of John Buchneff.

THISTLES. About 18 years ago an agricultural convention as held in this county, at which a notable professor from one of the Washington colleges was a guest and contributor. This man in the course of his rambles about the city found a small nest of Canada thistles started on Smith's Point, and plucking one by the roots, took it into convention and made it the thesis of a memorable lecture, -giving its his tory technically, and practically, and warning the people of Clatsop against it by every argument and demonstra tion known to science and the friend liness of a teacher who found he was .telling his auditors something entire ly new to them. The result of that lecture was noted for some years by the rarity of the Canada thistle, which was routed out, and kept out, by arduous and consistant work. Lately the course has re-appeared, and it is headed in right where he found it, on Smith's Point; and from there it may be easily traced all over the west side. The farmers are again alive to the evil, but it is going to take something beside voluntary work in its exter mination. The county and city au thorities will be justified in taking instant and comprehensive steps for its annihilation; and especially at this season of the' year, when it is bloom ing and the new year's growth may be easily eliminated by vigorous and thorough action. Like all slow, silent and insiduous things, tht thistle grows, and travels and spreads at a pace, and in a volumne, that stag gers one with realization when it thrusts itself upon the communal consciousness. The only way it can be met, is by constant watching and periodical onslaught. In default of this, it soon masters soil and crop and man. and rules all these with re lentless power. Go to it, everybody!. TV"- MINDING THEIR BUSINESS. We confess we have never under stood the probable, nor possible, ground for Japanese enmity toward this country. ?nd have always depre cated the doctrine; it was easy to make due allowance for the bump tiousness of the victorious people who emerged from the Russo-Japanese war, and to condone the ardor and confluence inseparable from such conditions; but why Japan should nurft an antipathy of any sort to the United States, with positive and pregnant predicate, has always been beyond us. Now, our returning Ambas-adc-r tells us there is not an atom of ground f.r the conclusion; that only the best of feeling exists over there for us and our" policies, and that the war spirit and war contingency are as remote as any other inconceivable threat or act. The Japanese seem to be minding their own buiness with wonderful success in this country and they cer tainly -jre refraining from any overt demonstrations on either side of the waters. In this they are furnishing us a lesson that may well be heeded. The jir.go is a universal nuisance and is amenable to the most cautious and the coldest treatment, by sensible people. There is enough of known fact to discourage their clamor, such the depletion of the Island Empire exchequer, and other potent impedi ments to a war program, now con fronting Japan and the word brought over by our representative fits the public mood of America admirably and widely. FIRE PREMIUMS NET. It is a startling, yet almost con clusive fact, that the fire premiums ,aid by this city, for years past, have been, gross and net, assets to the in surance companies doing, business here. There has not been a fire of any size or importance recorded here for many a day and what we are sending out annually i a sheer gift to the San Francisco trust. It will pay the Astoria insurer to confirm this before he re-writes his buiness; especially before he countenances an advanced rate All Oregon is up in arms and fend ing against the proposed access in insurance cost, and our people must not neglect their interests at any stage of the new game. We have enough to contend with in the way of combinations without permitting any excesses in this line. We get protec tion, of course, even if we clo not have any fires to speak of; but, on the present scale of premiums we are paying about double what that pro tection costs the protecting com panies. DEATH IN SCHOOL. The greatest achievement of science in the opening decade of the twentieth century is the awakening of the people to the fact that most hu man diseases are preventable and a large proportion of early deaths avoidable. At least 700,000 of the million and a half deaths a year from the minute parasitic plants and animals gaining access to the body. These invisible foes wage a continual warfare against both strong and weak rich and poor. Civic duty as well as self preservation demands, that these life-destroyers should as far as pos sible be shut out of the human system. The evidence condemning the use of the common drinking vessel upon any occasion whether at school, church or home is derived from three sources: 1. the frequent presence of disease-producing bacteria in the mouth; 2. the detection of pathogenic germs on the public cups; and 3. the discovery that where a number of persons drank from a cup previously used by the sick, some of them be came ill. A cup which had been in use nine days in a school was a clear thin class. If was broken into a number of pieces and properly stained for examination with a microscope mag nifying 1,000 diameters. The human cells scraped from the lips of the drinkers were so numerous on the upper third of the glass that the head of a pin could not be placed anywhere without touching several of these bits of skin. The saliva by running down on the inside of the glass had carried cells and bacteria to the bottom. Here, however, they were less than one-third as abundant as at the brim. By counting the cells present on fifty different areas on the glass as seen under the microscope, it was estimated that the cup contained over 20,000 human cells or bits of dead skin. As many as ISO germs were seen clinging to a single cell, and very few cells showed less than ten germs. Between the cells were thousands of germs left there by the smears of saliva deposited by the drinkers. Xot less than a hundred thousand bacteria were present Technical World.

COFFEE You are both judge and jury for Schilling's Best Tour grocer returns your Doner If 701 doa'l Iflu it: we par bim New York NEW YORK, July R-Parched by a three week' drought and steadily baked under the deadliest sun in many years, Manhattan Island lies to-day practically helpless before the fatal inroads of its record hot spell. Scores of A'ictims are swelling the death rolls each day and the medical men pre dict sun-slaughter by the hundreds if rain and cool breeics do not break through the blazing skies before the end of this week. It is seven long year-f since this city has felt as dead ly a scourge of the sun as that which has to-day almost brought business to n standstill. In the memorable July of 1901 men and beasts were felled about the streets as widely as they are today; but even that trying time lasted no longer than the hot spell here has already extended to day. The sight of the poorer quart ers has become heart-sickening and death by heat stroke lurks even in the rarer atmosphere of Fifth avenue Out cool night may save hundreds of lives in this severest seige of the sun. TIMING THE TIMES. With the valedictory predictions of Gary "and Gates, who have joined the army of sea-bound magnates today, much talk of a return to bumper business is being stirred up among the men of affairs here. It is admit ted generally in the business district to-day that the arrival of record good times is now only a question of time. That Gary has set this in the im mediate future and Gates deferred it a year is leading the majority of com mercial ages, to split the difference and name next fall as the birthday of renewed activity. With the wings of Wall street clipped and high finance pruned to the stalk, no more sane conditions have ever existed here than surround the 'money world to day, plenty of cash and commerce will be brought by the next cool weather, it is generally believed. POTTER'S POPULARITY Not since all New York hung on the pulse beats of the prostrate Kip ling has a general sympathy been shown here as that which the condi tion of the good Bishop Potter has called forh. Day afer day and hour after hour the news of the bishop's fight with death has been sought LARGE RIFLE MATCH More Than a Thousand Crack Shots to Take Part WILL TAKE ABOUT 3 WEEKS The Question of Expense, to Enter Contest is a Serious One to Many States Costs About $5000 to Fit Out a Team. WASHINGTON, D. C. July 14. In one month the great National Rifle Matches will be in progress on the beautiful range at Camp Perry, Ohio. Lying on the banks of, Lake Erie, across from Put-in-Bay, adja cent to Sandusky, and within easy reach of Cleveland, Toledo and De troit, Camp Perry is the most acces sible of all large rifle ranges, which fact augurs well for the attendance on these matches. It is expected that more than one thousand of the crack military shots will be in attend ance who, with the twelve hundred officers, scorers, markers, guards, etc. will make a c&mp of about nearly twenty five hundrded men. It is assured tha these matches will be the largest in point of attend ance ever held in this country, and perhaps will be the best of the Na tional matches to be held, at least for some years to come. Indications point to a change in the methods of determining such contests. It is rep resented that the attendance on these matches is so large as to necesitate from two to three weeks shooting of which ten days are devoted to the na tional matches alone. Many shooters are unable to take this time together with that necessary for home prac tice and competitions for places on the team. The question of expense is also entering largely into the cal culations of the state authorities. It costs- some of the states as much as five thousand dollars to fit out a team and send it to the National matches which is a very considerable item to the smaller states, especially when News Letter throughout the East Side and the rich residential district alike. Not only n a churchman and publicist but as a friend and guide Bishop Potter has been known and loved in every class of ens mopolitnn Gotham, The sanity ami sense of his master mind has cleared many a great prob lem for his church and city, while the fruit of his private counsel and guidance are treasured here a thous and -fold. Few members of this giant community could as ill be spared ns this stimt churchman whose influence is felt in every walk of life. MELON MOUNTAINS Huge heaps of luscious Georgia melons, bursting with juice and rich red pulp are today being reared over on the water front to mark the opening of the real summer season. As ship after ship has begun to steam in from Savannah crammed with the delicious evals, hundreds of brokers and dealers are swarming constantly about these melon moun-j tains bidding briskly for their share to distribute far and wide. .Already the summer fruit is appearing on the tables and stalls of the town and within a week its delights will be come property to the crowd. With corn on the cob,, the water melon furnished Gotham its favorite hot- weather diet and the corn ears are al ready popping out on every plate There is a solace for the fiercest heat in the very sight of these tempting pyramids just piling up on the warfs. PUSHING PEARY Now that the good ship "Roosc velt" is sailing up the coast to-ward its arctic goal and Peary is about to follow for a final dash to the pole, the enthusiasts of this city are keyed to a high pitch of excitement. There has always been a strong band of arctic fans here who rotted steadily for the men pushing for the pole, but of late years little has been heard from them, To-day, however, the arctic club has formed the nucleus for as formidable an array of ice-eaters as ever sat the side lines in any polar contest. If interest, support and good wishes count in the frozen zone, Peary will have ample supply from this metropolis. they are trying to buy and equip ranges of their own out of the ap propriation for rifle practice. Ac cordingly, the project of dividing the country into districts, and having district competitions, instead of one great meeting, is being seriously con sidered with the possibility of being finally approved. The winning ttams could then be brought together at some central point and a national competition held. Under this plan the smaller and weaker states, who have no chance to land a prize in the national competitions, would be sav ed much expense and the time con sumed would be considerably short ened. The principal match at Camp Perry will of course, be the National Team Match, for which Congress has pro vided the Trophy. It is for 'teams of twelve, open to the Army, (2), Navy, Marine Corps, Military and Naval Academies, and the National Guard of the Various States and Territories, including the District of Columbia. In this match there will probably be forty entries. The second team receives the famous Hilton Trophy and the third the Soldier of Marathon while there are six cash prizes for the six highest teams. Each mem ber of the winning team receives a medal. Next in importance are the National Individual Rifle and the Na tional Pistol Matches, in both of which there are i number of cash and medal prizes. Last year there were 648 competitors in the indivi dual rifle, and 250 in the pistol match, and more are expected to enter this year. Of the National Rifle Association matches the most important is the Regimental Team Match, in which there were forty-seven teams entered last year. The first prize in this match is a handsome Championship Trophy, valued at $500. It has been won twice by the Sixth Regiment Massachusetts Volunteer Militia, and if this team is again victorious, the Trophy becomes its property. Next in interest is the Company Team Match, in which the prizes arc cash and medals, Of. the individual matches 't is difficult to determine which is the most .interesting, the Leech Cup, the Wimbledon Cup, or the President's Match. They are shot under different conditions, the Leech Cup match being seven record shots ta 800, 900, and 1000 yards and the Wimbledon Cup twenty rec ord shots at 1000 yards, while the President's Match includes everyi thing from the klrinloh to the 1,000 yard stage, lloth the Leech and Wimbledon cups are historic and the winner of the President's Match re ceives, an autograph letter from the President lit addition to a substan tial cash prize. There are medals and cash prizes in each match. Another very Interesting event Is the Chuniplonshlp Regimental Skirm ish Match, open to teams of six, When won twice the beautiful Silver Trophy becomes the property of the winning team, Last year this match had fifty-one entries. Other N. R. A. matches arc the Inter Club Match, Life Members Match, State Secre taries Match and the Press Match. There is also a Championship Re volver Team Match. The greatest interest In Ohio center' 'around the llofrick Trophy Match for a magnificent silver trophy presented by Kx-Gov, Merrick of Ohio. Itjs accompanied by $.175 in cash prixes with medals to the mem bers of the winning team. This match is open to teams of eight who slipot fifteen shots per man at 800, FREE TRI ALAN ELECTRIC IRON Saves backs, footsteps, blistered fingers, and faces fuel and tempers, You feel no electricity attach to any incan descent socket low expense would sur prise you let us explain to YOU.

According to the admission in the deposition! taken, Eulalio Trevino wa preiiident of a Mexican revolu tionary club in San Antonio which waa aubnidiary to the junta at St. LouU. lie came to Mexico under the name of Lcopoldo Villareal and worked hit way among the aympa- thizeri of the juntai in the northern! Iurt of Mexico in the guine of a Bap-! tist minuter. He wai accompanied; by Cosine Pcna another of the gang and both were passing a preachers and holding meeting! before small congregations in the State of Coa liuila and San Luis Pototi. After these meetings love feasts were held, In which only the elect remained, so to keep the authorities blind as to their real purposes. Trevino and Pcna were in direct communication with Magonr the leader who is now In the United States and from time lo time sent him remittances from collections made. Judge Preztleon, however, has brought out confes sions from them that a portion of their collections were fraudulently applied to their own use and that they were using their connection with Magon to assist themselves in rob bery. An important discovery was the key which Trevino had in his pos session to a secret code believed to be that which Magon uses in com munication with his Mexican follow ing. Other documents have been found, the nature of which will not be made public. The infomation con tained therein will be made use of largely when Mexico appeals to the United States .for extradition of the participants in the recent raids in Coahuila.

TO CALL FOR NEW CONCERN-CHAMBER OF COMMERCE WRITES TO CITY COUNCIL. The effort to start a rival telephone company to the Sunset concern has met with a surprisingly quick re sponse. Yesterday John L. Cline, rep resenting himself to be from the east, consulted with several promi nent Astoria men in regard to pro moting a new telephone concern for Astoria. It is understood that Mr. Cline stands high and has been for many years connected with a leading elec trical house. He has relatives in this city, also. Business and professional men need not be surprised if within a day or two they are asked to tentatively subscribe to a new and independent concern, which will propose to es tablish a modern and strictly ade quate plant here, either of the auto matic or other down-to-date kind. The rates will be no higher than those -charged by the present com pany. The proposition as it now stands is that work will be commenc ed on the new plant not later than November 1 of this year. That Mr. Cline or the people he may represent can readily secure a franchise from the city council is hot questioned by those familiar with the matter, providing that it be shown the franchise is wanted in good faith and that the new concern has absolutely no connection with the present company. -Apparently the Chamber of Com merce believes that the franchise of the present company may be safely and legally revoked and following is a copy of a communication addressed to the city council by the Chamber yesterday. Astoria, July 14, 1908. Honorable Herman Wise, Mayor of the City of Astoria, Astoria, Oregon. Dear Sir: Pursuant to a resolu tion passed at last night's regular meeting of the Chamber of Com merce you and the Honoroble City Council are respectfully petitioned to instruct the city attorney to proceed immediately to take such steps as you may deem it necessary to revoke the franchise of the Pacific Telephone Telegraph Company with the short est oossible delay, and to take such other necessary steps in this direc tion as you and the Honorable Coun cil may deem proper. As you and the Honorable Council well know the Chamber of Commerce has labored long and earnestly to se cure a modern telephone system for Astoria. The Pacific Telephone Telegraph Company has at all times followed the policy of procrastina tion without variation excepting to make some repairs in outside work during the past winter. It was the sense of the large number of mem bers present last night that no other city of the size of Astoria in the United States would tolerate such an obsolete, antique and passe telephone system as the one which Astoria has been humoring with patience and fortitude for many years. The Chamber of Commerce has written to the local manager of this TEA Schilling's Best is in packages never comes out of a bin or canister. Four rrortr return TOnr monej U jrou doo'l gkt it; wfpv b.m telephone company giving it due notice of this letter to you and the Honorable Council. We respectfully suggest that should the telephone company bring its system up to date with a central energy exchange and modern instruments that it might be able to secure a new franchise from you and Your Honorable body and that under no circumstances is the Chamber of Commerce willing to longer delay in its efforts to have the present franchise revoked. 'We respectfully urge that inas much Astoria has for many years suffered this antiquated telephone system to operate here, to that de gree Astoria has shown a too marked acquiesence to cAse it to be thought of in line with modern and progres sive cities in this particular. We are writing to different tele phone companies, pursuant to resolu tion of last night, inviting them to come to Astoria and seek a franchise. There is no doubt but that we will be able to secure the modern system and this organization therefore ex pressed itself last night as believing that the franchise of the present sys tern should be immediately revoked in order that the local telephone field would be clear for all newcomers and we respectfully petition you to co operate with us to that end.

This Idol Haa Been Worshiped About Two Thousand Years, and His Na tional Tampla Is on the Sands of Purl The Three Monster Cars, If I were asked to describe India the first remark that would spring from my lips would be, "It Is a land of Idols." If would be Impossible to com pute the number of Idols that there must bo at the present time In India. The Hindoos pretend to have 333,000. 000 gods, and' these are represented by Innumerable Idols, so that we are quite bewildered with the thought of taking the census of the idols of India. The population of the whole Indian empire la now about 300,000,000, and possibly the country contains ten times as many idols as people. Benares is the great ceuter of the Idol making business, though in all parts of India the trade flourishes. Totters the day through may be seen in the sacred city molding images of clay for temporary use. Sculptors also may be found producing representa tives of the gods In stone or marble. Carpenters, moreover, make great wooden idols for the temples, and workers In uietal-goldsmitha, copper smiths and brass workers turn out more or less highly finished specimens in their respective metals. When speaking of idols it should be borne in mind that the Images turned out by the potter, sculptor, carver or manufacturer are not considered sa cred or St to be worshiped until cer tain mystic words have been uttered over them by a priest The ceremony of "the giving of life," as it is called, to the image is a very solemn affair, and when it is done the idol la regard ed as holy and must ever afterward bo approached and treated with the ut most reverence. Out of the many millions of so called gods in Ihdin. all of whom are counted worthy of worship, three are regarded as specially sacred and form the Hln- doo triad or trinity. They are re- spectlvely Brahma, Vishnu and Siva. Of those it Is stated the second per- son of the trinity only has been rep- resented on this earth by human in- carnations. Through one or all of these gods the Hindoos believe tbey may ob- tain salvation. Brahma represents ths way of salvation by wisdom, Vishnu by faith and Siva by works.

Never shall I forget the sight. The road was filled with tens of thousand of lookers-on. all wild with excitement, and the fanaties who held the ropes were dragging the cars along with frenzied zeal. Every now and then there would be a stop that the men might rest, I supposed, but instead of resting they took to Jumping in the air and to whirling themselves around like dancing dervishes and shouting at the top of their breath: "Victory!

Artillerymen' Drill The drill of the First Company, Coast Artillery, O. R. N. in Foard Stokes' hall last night was a decided success and the men made a far bet ter showing in their first appearance as a company than had been expect ed. There were only one or two ab sentees. The company fell in at 8 o'clock and first went through squad drill, and later Captain Abercrombie took the men in hand and put them throueh a company drill. The offi cers were highly pleased with the work done and it is thought that in a very short time the company will be in first-class shape, though it is rec oirnized that it -will take hard work and arduous drilling to accomplish all that should be attained. Captain Abercrombie announced appoint ments as follows: G. A. Darland, acting first sergeant: Guy R. Os borne, acting second sergeant; Carl Franseen, acting third sergeant; A. J. Schroeder. Quartermaster; and Priv ates Rogers, Bergman, Basil, Steven son and Steele, corporals.

Robbed The Scow- After returning from a fishing trip of several days, John Enckson re turned to. his scow at Schmidt's Cold Storatre dock early yesterday morn ntr anil found that someone had broken one of the windows and stol en a suit of clothes and about three dolars" in money. The suit, which was a new one, belonged to a friend of Erickson's by the name of Andrew Anderson, who had it in Enckson s scow for safe keeping. A man by ft nam nf Tohnson who several wepk's airo was boatpuller for Erick son is accused of the 'theft, as it is claimed he was the only man that knew about the clothes. A pipe was fnutiH in the house boat that, it is said, was at once recognized by Erickson as belonging to. Johnson. It is impossible to tell just what time th- Vohherv took place, and as John inn has not been seen for several Havs. it is thotieh that he has already skipped this part of the country. The police have been notified and are furnished with a sample of the cloth that the suit was made out ot, ana as the cloth is of an unusual pattern it will be easily recognized in case the thief sold it to anybody in this city. for a few days to ee if he would not recover. 1 Timmons is not a drinking man and apparently has lead .an orderly life. The cause of hia mental break down could not be traced with any degree of exactness yesterday. He talked freely, but more or less inco herently, and kept asserting that he was being watched'and followed. For the preceding two nights, he averred, the police had been watching him at the Astoria hotel. A a matter W fact the police had paid no attention to him in any way and knew nothing of the mental affliction that was grow ing on him. Recently Timmons took a trip to San Francisco, going by steamer, and he alleges that while at sea the Astoria police sent wireless messages to have him arrested upon his arrival in the( California metrop olis. As is very common in mental derangements, Timmon's dementia also takes a religious turn. removed to Portland where Mr. Bos worth is anxious to have him taken as as soon as possible. Dr. Fulton now says that he has every reason to believe htat he will recover without any permanent injuries that would cripple him in any way. He was resting quite easy yestreday, suffer ing very little pain, excepting when he couched, at which time the jarring of his body would cause considerable pain. The awful crush he received may cause the congestion of his left lung, but this, it is thought, will be overcomed and will not develop into any serious results. llO HOgl a Parlori Second Floor Over Scholfield Mattaon Co. j One Lone Ship The Columbia bar was undisturbed i by sea going bottoms yesterday, save j for that of the old and regular Al I liance which came in from Coos with ia good passenger list and plenty of Ifreiirht. as usual. .This is summer 1 with a vengance, so far as marine Growing Better Daily R.

The above are mostly juvenile stories and were purchased out of the supply fund appropriation. the work at the jetty, in obedience tm the Presidential letter directing that a half-holiday be given to all day la borers on government work throughout the country, during the summer, and on Saturdays, could not, under the terms of that letter and authority, grant this privilege (nor its alternative, time and a hair in the event the day laborers worked on that afternoon) to the locomotive engineers, as these operatives are not classed as day workers on the roll and roster at the jetties, but work from month to month on salary. The engineers resented this alleged dis crimination and refused to work on last Saturday afternoon, unless they were given time and a half for the period. This was also denied them, for want of authority, and they refus ed to go to work on Monday morn ing, and very many of the men wh were amenable to the privilege question, sided with them and also refused to take up the work. The matter was widely discussed among thoe concerned, and a com mittee was sent to this city to secure the legal aid of Messrs. Fulton Bros, the lawyers, to press the claim m be half of the engineers and their sympathizers, but in the absence of U. S. Senator Charles W. Fulton, hi brother, and partner, G. C. Fulton, declined to take the case, for very ex cellent and proper reasons, and the men returned to the jetty and re ported. Further review of the situa tion on the part of those thus con tending, resulted in the abandonment of the olea. for the time being, and the work was started again yesterday as above stated. This is the first time in many a long day that anything like a serious trouble has arisen at the jetties, and that it has been adjusted, and work resumed, relieves a decided strain there, here, and at the quarries up the river, which must have shut down had the contest been persisted in; the boats and barges used in transporting rock must have been stopped, and the ramifications of the try-out would have wrought general disaster all over the lower Columbia generally. There is a fine body of men in the government employ at the jetty, and probably unmatched m the country for sobriety, steadiness, and capa bility, from top to bottom and throughout. The very fact that these men have relinquished their adverse attitude, even if it be temporarily, sneaks' volumnes for their judgment and tolerance and their sense of the importance and gravity of the work they are doing: and it is broadly hoped that what issues have arisen m thu matter may be subsequently and sat isfactorily adjusted, without further recourse to the threatening and im peding processes of a strike or simi lar imperative operations.

"Xo, thanks, I can carry this grip myself. Then she made her way to the depot Tbe labors of the day were ended. Mrs. Watson and several of her board ers were out on the front porch in rest ful enjoyment of the "cool o tbe even in'. "Tea, Miss Wright's cuttin a wide swath, accordin' to the papers," the landlady was declaiming to the little milliner, a new boarder. "Today's Clarion said as how a furrin noble man appeared to be gettin' the Inside track. That's why he's lookin more moped than usual tonight," pointing through the open window at a solitary man in the shabby sitting room, his head leaning wearily on his hand, an unopened paper on his knee. i "He ain't been the same man since thi left," continued Mrs. Watson in a j lowered voice. "In love- 'with her? Land sakes, I should say he was! Ev- j ery one could see h except Miss Wright. Why didn't he up and tell j her? Why, child, they were both too poor! Miss Wright didn't make no i more'n her own keep, an' Mr. Lang- j don has a mother an' sister to support back in Ohio. An' when Miss Wright's j nncle died an' left her all that prop'uty j of course that put her out'n his reach I for good. He's too proud a man to live on his wife's money. It's a dreadful pity, though, for if ever two people were cut out for each other" Just i then she turned her head and saw Dora Wright walking up (he path. i "For the land sakes alive!" ejaculat- ed Mrs. Watson. "This ain't never you! How glad I am to see you. an' how well you're lookin'!" Considerable time was consumed in congratulations and explanations. Then Mrs. Watson hurried upstairs to see about a room for her unexpected guest, and Dora went into the parlor and seated herself beside Mr. Langdon. "Have you missed me, Robert?" she asked. "Missed you?" echoed Langdon. Ue thought how intensely he had missed her. How, during the two months of her absence, he had longed for the sound of her voice, the merry laugh in her eyes! "It's like a dream to have you sit ting beside me, Dora. I don't under stand it. For the first time in years you had got comfortably away from the everlasting grind and were free to spend your time as you liked, yet here you are back again in the hot, dusty city in the middle of August. Now, Dora, what's the reason?" "Well, one of the reasons is that this talk about money making you free Is ail nonsense. Money made me a slave for two months. Instead Of doing what I wanted I had to do what anybody else wanted. "I had to be outdoors when I was cold and Indoors when I was hot. 1 kad to sit through two hour dinners every nlghf and eatf things t detested. I had to dance when I waa tired and listen to poor music and go Into ecsta sies over execrable: singing when I was sleepy and my head ached. I had to ride In automobiles nnd go yachting. A yacht always makes me sick, end you know what I think of automo biles." Mr. Langdon did not seem properly Impressed, so Dora continued In au aggrieved voice: "I spent hours racing around with golf sticks when I'd much rather sit down quietly, with an agreeable book. It's very well to do what you dislike If you're accomplishing anything, but all this activity was accomplishing nothing except spoiling my temper and making me thin. But you haven't said yet that you were glad to see me, Robert" j Langdon's look of adoration seemed to be nothing more than she expected. "Yes, Dora, 1 am glad," he said sim ply. "I thought you had forgotten me. I didn't blame you," he continued hastily as she made a dissenting ges ture. "I was glad to think that at last you were enjoying what your beauty and your nature entitled you to and that your brave conduct In adversity was being properly rewarded. But why did you come back here, Dora! Why did you come back to this dreary manufacturing town when you had the whole world to choose from?" Dora looked Intently at him while he was speaking. She noted the streaks of gray in his well kept hair, the sad droop of the patient mouth, the many lines around his tired eyes. "For more reasons than ore. I knew you needed looking after, Robert I knew you were lonely and workinir hard In order to forget I knew you were tired and that your eyes were used up. I knew you felt the heat more thnn ever and wouldn't take any refreshing trolley rides out Into the breezy country or go on any cozy little picnics without your old friend. Now I'm going to Inveigle you out every afternoon, and we'll read our favorite authors In the evenlugs, Just as we used to before I became an heiress." Langdon drew a deep breath and looked longingly at the girl, who ap peared to be unconscious of having said anything nnusnal. "I was tired." be raid. His eves and voice were perilously near tears, the porch was deserted, and he laid his hand gently on hers. "But In the fu ture the knowledge that you thought of me and came back to cheer me np will keep me from fatigue and every other ill. But you must return to your relatives. If you don't like Newport, there are other places. Travel, Dora, and get tbe good of the money that came to you la(e, but thank God, not too late." 1 Dora regarded him with an amused tenderness. "You don't know me half as well as I know yon, Robert I have no inten tion of going back to the relatives who ignored my very existence until Un cle Timothy left me a fortune. And I don't want to spend my money In travel at present I came to the place j I like, and here I'm going to stay." j Langdon leaned suddenly toward j Dora. His pale face flushed, and bis j hands trembled, but he pulled himself up again resolutely, i "I'm right though, Dora. In spite of your heavenly kindness it can't be the jsame as it was when we were both j poor. My dear girl, don't you see that it is different?" I Dora smiled tenderly at him. j "Certainly I see that it's different, j because now I have the means to pro j vide luxuriously for the old mother j and delicate sister and to keep up a I house for us both.'-' Langdon was shaking visibly. "Dora, it will not do. Your husband must be. a more brilliant man than this old friend, though he can never be a more faithful. He must be of your own age and your own financial standing. You make it hard, dear one, but you must go back tomorrow." "I shall never go back," she said resolutely. "And I shall never have n husband, Robert, unless It is this un selfish old friend." Langdon raised his hand to his tired eyes to hide a rush of happy tears. "Do you mean"- he stammered. "Yes," answered Dora gayly; "I mean this as a proposal. It's leap year, yon know." to leave tttul hud reached 'the door when the clerk called after htm.

With Whom the Offl etn of the Law Have te 'Contend. Nitroglycerin in Safe Bursting. In the expressive siting that per men tea police circles throughout the country, a "yegg" js One of the dan gerous criminal class. The question Is often asked, "What la a yegg, nod bow did the expression originate? An answer to the latter part of tho query will lead to an eluci dation of tho first Sdiiio yours ago, when tho United States government was experimenting with blgb explosives, wishing to secure some death dealing and destructive shell that would cnuse more damugu than any before manufactured, some one suggested that nitroglycerin be Mod. Up to that time this most pow erful of explosives bad not been util ised In tbla way. The government experts went to work, and the resulta of their expert mouts were from time to time pub lished broadcast through the commu nity, At lust they succeeded In mak ing a shell In which nitroglycerin was the chief component pert and which made all former ones sink Into Insig nificance. In a town in the middle west at the time there lived a man named John Tcgg. In bis earlier days be bad been one of tho most expert electricians as well as all round experienced mechan ics In the country. Later, through drink and bad associates, be bad descended to a Ufo of crime, bis principal art be ing that of safe blowing. lie wna attracted by the published accounts of tho experiments of the government authorities wltb nitro glycerin. The thought struck him. Why could not this bo used In blowing safes? The method at that time was to drill bole In the safe to be wrecked, fill this with powder or dynamite and then toucb the fuse. This method, however, required considerable time to pull off "a Job" and waa uolsy and dangerous. Yeg; went to work on the nitro glycerin method. lie tried It, and It was a complete success. Furthermore. sfter be bud performed Job after Job he bad the police of the country baf fled. They did not know 'bow the work was done. Yegg Instructed others In the art, and soon from one end of the country to the other safes were being wrecked, but by what man ner no one knew. Yegg's method waa to take some of tbe explosive which be and tbose wltb hliu called "soup"and, by the way. this term Is still extant and pour It tho crack of the safe near the nlngos of the door. Tbe small aperture waa then covered with soap to bold the explosive In place. Tbe fuse won pplled, and with tbe explosion off went the doors, slick and clean. Tbe entire Job took but a few minutes, it remained for a young Plnkerton de- ective to aolve the matter on a safe that was blown In Coldwater, Mich., where a bank was wrecked and many thousands of dollars secured. Tbe crime was traced to Yegg and some of his companions, and they were found guilty and sent to prison. Thereafter tbose who employed the nitroglycerin Instead of the older methods were called "reggmen" or yeggs." This was the beginning of the term, but since that time tbe application of has grown greatly. Today a "yegg," lewed from whatcrer aspect, is the most dangerous criminal wltb whom the police of tho country have to deal. IIo Is one who rides the country o'er on freight trains, working through the south In tbe winter and mlgraUng to more exhilarating dimes during the summer. He will beg when be Is hungry and will steal and commit murder when ho sees an opportunity of benefiting himself Today there are thousands of "yeggs" scattered throughout the country. Most of them belong to some certain band, each one of which bas a leader. He Is the king. It Is bis duty to enlist recruits. To him also is shinned all the loot, and ho In turn converts It Into money ana places tbe amount to tbe credit of tho member aendlng It In. For this the king receives a commis sion. Most of the "yegg" gangs carry what Is known as a "kitten" with them. The "kitten" is n boy, young man or crip ple, whose duty It Is to visit houses and places of business, nppnrently beg ging food or selling shoestrings, lead pencils, etc.. nnd who then reports to the gnng "the lay of the land" so that when the time comes for pulling off the Job all nre familiar with the prem ises. The "kittens" are often runaway boys and Inter become "yeggs" them- i selves, destined to follow a life of crime and degradation. Pittsburg Ga-xetto-Times.
