Young Desperate at
Grants Pass Does
Fatal Stabbing
May Have a Chance to Pro.
vide the Penitentiary
With Another Social
Function

Grants Pass, Or, Feb. 9.-Monday
Marshal John Patrick was probably
fatally stabbed, while attempting to
arrest Ed. Chiles, who was crazy
drunk and creating a disturbance
Chiles is about "a years old, and lives
with his parents over his fathers gro
Gerry store. He is known as a bad man
when drunk, and on this occasion he
demolished furniture and dishes, and
drove his father and mother from the
house. He then went to the store
and, securing big cheese knife,
which he hid under his coat, went or
the street creating a disturbance
When Marshal Patrick attempted to
arrest him, Chiles made a vicious
lunge with the big knife, but his foot
slipped and he inflicted a slight wound
on Patricks breast. Chiles continued
to strike, and inflicted a dangerous
cut in Patricks abdomen, and also
severed a finger from his hand. BY
this time a crowd had collected and
Chiles was knocked down and was Sc
verely dubbed before he could be
taken to Jail
John Patrick is a highly respected
citizen, about 60 years old, a mem
Der OF the Grand Army, and had beer
appointed as day marshal two weeks
ago. although he had held a simllal
position two years ago. Chiles is th'
son OF ]. M. Chiles, ex-county judge o
Josephine county, and respected
pioneer merchant of this place. Pat
rick is now in a critical condition.

The WELL BRED WOMAN.

she IL Marked by she Posture She
Assumes when sitting.
Nothing points out the well bred wo'
man more quickly than the position
she takes when she sits down. rae
stamp OF vulgarity is marked upon the
woman who sits with her knees spread
far apart, lack of refinement is shown
by knees crossed extensively, lack OF
ease by stiff and constrained position
of the shoulders, a general carelessness
and Indifference by the very common
fault OF sitting In the shoulders'-
that is, Of doubling the spine 80 that
the upper part rather than the lower
part Of It rests against the back of the
chair, says the New York Herald.
The body should be placed we'll back
upon the seat, chair, sofa or whatever
II may be. The feet should rest on tho
floor. one somewhat In front Of the 9th
er, because 1t is easier to rise from THAI
position. The head must be kept well
up and the chest poised slightly for
ward.
The lower part OF the spine may be
pressed against the frame Of the chair,
but II one, after sitting awhile, should
need to rest little more the shoulders
may also touch upon the same support.
The hands should remain as they neu-
trally fall from this position, hanging
at the side, or they may be placed cas-
fly over the arms or back Of the chair
or allowed to lie reposefully on the lap
To rise properly from a correct SIT,
ting position there should be several
preparatory movements.
The chest is first poised far forward
and at the same time the foot Is drawn
back under the seat. The foot drawn
in should be the one opposite from the
direction to be taken in starting up.
AS you rise throw the weight hrmly
upon the foot in the rear. As the body
comes to its full height change the
weight to the forward foot, 80 that the
other foot merely touches the door very
lightly. This brings you TO a standing
position, ready to walk easily In the
direction you are going.
Ugly sitting position and awkward
movements in rising will disappear II
these principles are followed.

solved, however, to require the. best
brains Of the country and he is unre-
served in his praise of the men who
have been invested with authority to
perform the work. Particularly does
he speak highly of Chief Engineer
Wallace.
One of the first matters to receive
attention is the water supply not alone
to the occupants of the zone now and
during the construction Of the canal,
but of the cities of Panama and Coicl
While the commission has been CT re
ground for only q short time muCA
attention has been given to the sup
ply for Panama and Colon. Under the
treaty, while these cities are not within
the zone, 10 miles wide and about A.
miles long, the United States must
provide water and sewerage facilities
for the cities. with provision concern
ing the final ownership Of the plant.
The engineer commissioner was
asked concerning the reports Of differ
ence of level of the waters in the Pa
cific and the Atlantic. He replied that
on the Pacific side there is a tide OF
from Is to 20 feet, while on the At
lantic there is tide Of about two. The
high tide on the western side is re-
sponsible for the many marshes which
are covered with water at high tide.
These afford nesting places for mos
qultoes, which are much dreaded. He
said, however, that he found very few
mosquitoes in the zone.
The commission is having surveys
and borings made a. different points
TO enable them to determine the cost
and time necessary to build the canal
according to the different plans. They
are unaking use Of much of the data
collected by the French company, but
will supplement that with data of their
own.
From Colonel Biddle is is learned
that the commission has by no means
decided that the waterway is to be a
summit-level or lock canal as has
been geenrally reported since the pro-
ject received attention. A sea-level
canal is receiving careful consideration.
There would be two or three different
types possible If the sea level is de-
cided upon, and several If a summit

The colonel was pleased 10 tind the

There are sufficient problems to be
