won his bout in a sensational way by
two straight falls Following along 1t
turned out in nearly every instance
that the smaller man won or managed
TO make the contest a draw.
Last night about 10 O'Clock Kashu-
NADIA, a special favorite, came out and
was cheered. He is tall and slender
and looks more like a half white than
a japanese. The man against him must
have had the advantage in weight by
thirty pounds. but the youngster won
in two straight throws. without seem
ing to make an effort. Then came
Nestor of the ring. He is a man about
45 years old and is all SCARED up. He
could not have weighed more than 13O
pounds. while his opponent was young
and one of the largest japanese in the
city. The first round was a draw both
falling together. In the second til"
elder man won in a sensational man
ner when it seemed sure he was gone. |
The third round was by far the longest
IF the evening. It was age and |
skill combined against great strength |
md somewhat less skill After &bout
i've minutes of very active and tx
laustive work youth won, making the
match draw.

The domestic employee as she is to-
day is In part the product Of inefficient,
inconsiderate and Indifferent employ
ers. 1 have experienced all three and
may have a choice as to which I
should prefer. But the question here Is
not one Of personal choice, but what
sort of domestic employees these diff
ferent sorts Of employers will produce.
Take the inefficient first, and let the
girls themselves answer the question.

understood even the elementary prin-
ciples underlying it, or had any ade-
ouate idea what it would mean when
put into active operation.
But the campaign of education, be-
gun last winter, is proceeding satisfac-
torily, and by next winter the coun-
try and congress will be in a position
fairly to demand certain things.
The Esch- Townsend bill represents
one extreme of the present situation
and the policy of delay, with view
to doing nothing, represents the other
extreme To hazard a guess, it may
be said congress will take the middle
ground between these two extremes,
leaving the future to determine wheth-
err the Esch-T Townsend bin is econom-
ically sound. The middle ground may
take the form of legislation declaring
in accordance with the decision Of the
supreme court. 1t may also strike at
the midnight tariff and at the ra-
bates paid under the guise of termi-
nal switching and elevator charges
Such middel ground would, after some
show Of resistance, be acceptable to
the railroad companies, which are as
anxious as the public to have the pri-
vate car lines placed under control.
Such a program would necessarily
postpone the question of rate making
The new legislation would be tried long
enough to determine it's effectiveness.
If it should be found to reach the evils
now complained of, the question of
railroad legislation would be closed,
probably for many years; but if, on
the other hand, it should be found in
adequate an agitation would at once
be started in favor of supplementing
it with some such statute as that
aimed at in the ch-Townsend bill.

They are restless now, and they are go

more and more. And the more they
take it up the more they will fit into
normal niche in the social scheme and
cease to be superfuous. OF course If

to marry and fails in that she is a fail

LAUNDRY LINES.

Don't send anything to the laundry
before it is marked.
A very hot iron should never be used
for flannels or woOlens.
A spoonful of OK gall in a gallon of
water will set the cOlors of almost any
goods Soak before washing.
A bit of beeswax in a thin flannel
will keep fiatiron clean if rubbed on
often during days ironing, or wax
for this purpose comes in handy form.
A little pipe clay in the water used
for washing table linen whitens 1t and
saves hard rubbing. A cloth should al
ways be thoroughly rinsed. Plenty Of
clean water is the secret of clean, white
linen.
To remove stains from flannel is not
always easy, but it generally can be
done by using equal parts Of glycerin
and yolk of egg. Spread this mixture
on the stain, leave for half an hour and
then wash the garment as usual.

STATE PORTAGE ROAD BOARD
ANNOUNCES SALARIES TO
BE PAID
Monthly Pay Roll Will Not Exceed
Seven Hundred Dollars Super
intendent Reports.

The wage schedule for the employees
of the Cello portage road have been
practically decided upon by the Ore
gon state portage board, and all ar
engagements made for the engaging of
an entire force of operatives before it's
completion and acceptance by the state.
1t was decided to pay the locomotive
engineer, who must be qualified to keep
his engine in constant good repair, $50
per month; the locomotive fireman $50;
hoist engineer, SIS; conductor, who
must also act as brakeman and train
man generally, $50; section foreman,
$50, and three section hands, $50 each
per month. This, including the super
intendents salary, will bring the
monthly salary account up to about
$500.
Superintendent Mcclellan, of the
road, who is also acting as supervising
engineer of construction, was before
the board and reported that the road
would not be completed within the time
Is, but that it would require at least a
month more before it would be In an
acceptable condition. The track is all
laid and grading done, but the ballast
ing and surface work has hardly been
begun. He stated, however that he
thought the track would be in condi-
ton to receive the contemplated ex
cursion out of Portland, which is be-
ing arranged for May 81, but that the
heavy o. r. & n. locomotive could not
be run on the road, and that the train
would be pulled from The Dalles to
Cello by the portage engine.
1t also developed during the discus
sion over final settlement which en-
sued, that the contractors already have
received $685. of the contract price
from the state, and that no final set
tie ment would be made until the work
was finished and accepted by the state
Mr.. Mcclellan reported that some of
the subcontractors had complained to
him that they had received no part of
the pay for their work as yet, and were
beginning to worry over a settlement.
The state has no cause to worry from
this source, but it is the desire of the
board to protect the subcontractors
and laborers as much as possible, as
We'll as to avoid the possibility of suit
being brought against the state, by
way of an attachment on the road and
the board will take every precaution
to see that every claim is satisfied by
the contractors before final settlement.
The state, as we'll as the subcontrac-
tors and laborers, is protected from
loss by the idemnity bond of $4,000,
furnished by the contractors, and the
privilege of reserving ten per cent Of
the whole amount of the contract
price, which will amount to over s10,-
900 as a whole.

stead of using dumdum bullets Of the
deadly type surreptitiously brought
