quenters of saloons by eating glass
and swallowing small articles when
his audience would give him a glass
OF whiskey. He is now paying the
score for his unnatural trick and the
surgical operation to which he sub
mitted at Mercy Hospital, In North
Bend, resulted in a discovery which
the local physicians say surpasses
anything they ever saw or heard of.
The man was sick and 1t was decided
that some foreign substance had
lodged in his stomach. Physicians
opened the mans stomach and after
several hours work removed the fol-
lowing collection of articles: Three
Jack knives, one end of knife handle.
three door keys, one small key, three
five-cent pieces, Is cvnes, one end of
metal fishing rod, ~ large loaded
rife shells, three small shells, IT
horseshoe nails, one fish hook, two
finishing nails, one shingle nail, one
eight-penny nail, l75 pieces Of glass,
some of which were laser than the
finger nail.
Some of the glass had penetrated
the membrane of the stomach and
the most delicate dissection was nee
essary for its removal. The man is
apparently getting along very we'll
and unless some unexpected compli-
cations arise he will get we'll. Soon
after the operation he said he was
hungry and asked for substantial
food, the light fare usually given the
hospital patients not satisfying him.

TERRIBLE WRECK AT OAKLAND

Engine DaShes Into Smoking Car
Seven Killed and so Injured.
Oakland, Cal. July THE mar
row-gauge local, bound from the
Alameda Mole into Oakland, crashed
into the Santa Cruz train No. 81
bound for the Oakland Mole at 7:10
o'clock July 4, killing or injuring all
of the passengers in the Santa Cruz
train smoking-car.
Seven were killed and over 80 in
E""ed The collision was on TIE
crossing of the Narrow Gauge aad
main lines, opposite the Webster
street bridge. The engine of the
Alameda train, which was running
with tender ahead cut into the
Santa Cruz train smoking-car about
10 feet from the front.
The wreck of the coach contain
ing its dead and screaming wounded
was hurled on its side, with the Ala
media local tender buried in the
wreckage. The baggage coach OF
the Santa Cruz train, which was In
front of the smoker, was derailed
and halfway upset. Both locomo-
tives were derailed.
Practically all those in the smoker
were pinned in the wreck and their
a l..
cries for help followed the terrihc
crash of the trains coming together.
Some were able to dig themselves
out of the wreck, but the majority
had to be cut out. Several OF the
dead were badly crushed. The po-
lice and fire department were called
out and were soon at work carrying
the wounded and dead from the
wreck.
Engineer Everett j. Barry, of the
Santa Cruz train, was arrested on
a charge of manslaughter. This ac'
ton was taken by Chief of Police
Wilson of Oakland after commit
tee of high Southern Pacific officials
police and city officials and promi'
nent business men had conducted Q
thorough investigation of the acci'
dent and reached the unanimous con-
clusion that the main line engineer
was to blame for the catastrophe.

SELECTED AT RANDOM.
Bed Bugs.

These bugs will get back of wall pa.
per, and no difference how much one
may clean a room they will get into
the furniture. 1t takes heroic meas
ures to get rid of them. Often the pa.
per around the doors and windows will
be the haunts of these pests. The best
way to do is to repaper the house, first
washing the walls with a solution of
crude carbolic acid in water. Carbolic
acid mixed with turpentine and spray
ed through an atomizer will destroy
the bugs. Corrosive sublimate, a dead.
ly poison, can be poured into an old
tin cup and the springs and bed rail-
ings scrubbed with a small paint brush
dipped into the fluid. Wear heavy kid
gloves or rubber ones when working
with this deadly poison and do not
leave 1t where the children can reach
1t. Iron beds can be scalded, and SO
can the springs. A lighted taper or
candle will kill eggs in small crevices
and drive out the bugs where 1t Is i'm
possible to reach them. The hardest
beds to clean are folding beds and
couches. The latter should be taken
into the yard and saturated with gaso-
line. 1t soon evaporates. All bed
clothing should be thoroughly washed,
for they are often the means of keep
ing pests In the house, as eggs are
natched in some of the folds and can.
not be seen. Old husk mattresses are
certain to be filed with eggs and bugs,
80 a bonfire for the filing is the only
sure result Of killing them In the mat
tress. Wash the cover and fill with
new husks or clean straw.
Girls who desire to make a good i'm.
preston, who desire men to respect
and admire, must pay attention TO
the smallest details. Carefully mended
gloves, tidy shoe laces, scrupulously
clean lace-even If it bears evidence
Of mending-are all indicative Of neat.
ness and self respect. A girl who
looks after her personal appearance
will see that the home is scrupulously
tidy and orderly.
There is an old proverb that "its
bad to be poor, but it's doubly bad to
look poor" The girl who is tidy and
neat In the little details Of her dress
will not show the empty state Of her
purse nearly so much as she who al.
lows her clothes to become draggled
and unkempt and the tidy girl will
certainly be far more likely to meet
a good and worthy man, whose hon
est, strong hands will labor for her.

Court Declares Tax Law Invalid.

McMinnville-That the law pre-
scribing the apportionment of state
taxes conflicts with the Oregon con-
stitution and is therefore invalid is
the gist of decision rendered in the
Circuit Court here last week In the
circuit court by Judge Galloway.
The case at hand was the suit
brought by Yamhill county to pre-
vent payment of alleged excessive
taxes to the state treasurer. The
suit read, County of Yamhill vs..
County Treasurer Foster and State
Treasurer Steel" wherein the form
er Is enjoined from paying and the
latter from collecting the sum of
$22, 2,482 excessive state tax for 1907,
alleged to have been Wrongfully and
arbitrarily apportioned to'this county
by the state board.
The state law which Judge Gallo
way has held unconstitutional re-
quires each county to pay specified
proportion Of the total tax. The pro-
portion which each county must pay
was fixed by the act of 1901 and was
determined by taking an average Of
the assessments of each of the coun-
ties for a period of five years prior
thereto. 1t was originally intended
that this plan should remain in oper-
alton for five years only and that
thereafter each county should pay
state taxes in proportion to its coun-
ty expenditures, but subsequent leg
islctlve sessions postponed until 1912
time when the new system Of ap-
portionment would go into effect.

GRADING AT BARRACKS.
Big Shovels at Work in Front of
Army War College.

The work of grading the esplanade in
front of the new Army War College in
the south end of the Washington bar
racks park is being pushed along, but it
will be several months befo. it will be
completed and the wide expanse of lawn
ready for the grass seed and the land
scape gardener. A dozen or more teams
with big grading shovels have .een at
work on the park for the past month
and it is being gradually worked down
to a grade that will conform the north
end Of the park when completed.
The grade of the portion of the park
now being improved was raised three or
four years ago by material pumped upon
1t from the river. In some places the fill
was eight or nine feet and big trees were
buried to their bottom branches. AS a
consequence many of them died and those
that did not die were cut down about
a year ago, leaving the War College in
the middle of a sun-Daked plain yell
low clay, with not tree or particle of
shade within a hundred yards. Many of
the trees that We're cut down were fine
old NAPLES and elms that had be n grow
ing for half century or more and which
cannot be replaced in a few years.
On the northern portion of the park,
used as quarters for the engineer corps,
the old shade trees are standing, nd 1t
is a beautiful spot. in great contrast to
the portion about the big, ugly, red brcn
