ALBANY PEOPLE
COMING TO FAIR

Word was received this morning
by the Cherry Fair committee from
Secretary struble, OF the Albany
Commercial Club, that a large excur-
sion will como down from Albany
Friday morning, the 9th, to spend
the entire day at the Cherry Fair.
The Albany people are getting the
right spirit, and are doing things
which are beginning to tell for that
excellent little city. These recipro-
cal excursions by the neighboring
towns are among the excellent things
being done in tho Willamette valley.
when Salem went up to Albany's
apple fair last fall, about 500 strong,
her people did the right thing. They
we're royalty received and entertained
A better feeling between the two
towns has existed ever since. A sim
liar spirit Is being manifested be-
tween Eugene and Salem, TO the great
benefit of both places. These COM
munity love feasts mean more for the
development than almost anything
else that could happen, and the pres
ence OF large delegations from al
these surrounding towns at our Cher
~ Fair will not be overlooked by
Salem. A good program will be pro-
vlded, and n splendid time enjoyed By

FOUND
DEAD IN
HIS TUB

lNniNed freea Leased Wtfe.l
New York, July His throat
bound with a silken cord, Young
Vow, a Chinese laundryman, was
found dead in one OF his own tubs
today, and tho police believe the
crime has some bearing on the muir
der Of Elsie Slgel.
Vow had been strangled to death
and cast into tho tub by the assas-
sins, according TO all appearances.
Chinatown detectives are trying to
discover a motive for the murder,
and are convinced that they will un-
earth a connection with the eigel
case. Il Is their theory that Young
Vow knew the facts connected with
the mnrder OF the Sigel girl, and the
disappearance OF Leon Ling, sup
posed to be the leader of the six
Orientals involved in the crime.
New hope OF capturing tho Sigel
murderers has sprung up In the
breasts OF the officers working on
that case today. They believe that
the fresh trail OF the Vow murder
will lead them directly to the soiu-
tion OF the other mystery.

Le officio. time was: Harvard
1914; Yale, 1928.
Harvard followed up with another
victory in the freshman eight-oared
race. The crimson babies literally
crushed the Yale crew, leading from
the start and finishing easily fifteen
lengths in the van.
Inc official time in the freshman
event was: Harvard, 1872; Yale,
I2:09.
Weather conditions were almost
ideal for the annual Harvard Yale
regatta today. A light southwest
breeze that ruffled the surface of the
Thames threatened to make rather
rough going for the frail racing craft
but an hour before the varsity race
II was apparent that washboards on
the SHELLS would be unnecessary.
Coaches Wray and Kennedy went
over the course in launches early in
the morning.
New London began to FIJI up with
Harvard and Yale men and visitors
from surrounding cities early yester-
day. The city is crowded and II is
estimated that fully 10000 persons
crowded the excursion trains and the
launches that followed the racers or
found vantage points along the shore.
Despite the fact that Yale money
was plentiful, Harvard varsity eight
ruled a 5-to4 favorite in the betting.
The crews had shown almost equal
ability in trials against time and the
supporters of each appear confident.
Harvard's victory last year, cou-
pied with the fact that within the
last 25 years the crimson has not
won two successive races. was pointed
out as an argument for a Yale vic
tory.

Fca YOUR REALITIES SAKE
KNOWLEDGE IS LIFE.

Much of the misery and suffer ina in the world Is caused oy i9- uorance. Many of the epIdem'es of disease that have killed tens of thousands of human bein9s could have been prevented if only the people had known what was necessary to be done to prevent them. Knowledge, then, is more than power; it is life itself.
 1t should be quite clear, then, that if people will only take an interest in matters affecting their health and try to find out what to 60 to keep well, there VIII DC much less sickness and, of course fewer deaths. The one discour- aoinu feature Is that in every community there are always few who will not be taught, even tv the forcefuI lessons cf exre- rierce; and these unteacnap'e people are a source of danger. Health officials have their greatest troubles with people who will not be taught how to properly protect eithe-- their own or their neigh bors' children, by cooperating with the department to prevent the spread of contagion.

A NIGHT WITH A NIGHTMARE
May Be Warning to Those Who See Escape from Tcrtures of
 Insomnia.

Recently friend who had heard that sometimes suffer from insom- mia told me of sure cure. "Eat a pint of peanuts and drink two or three glasses of milk before going to bed. said he, and I'll warrant you'll be asleep within half an hour" I did as he suggested, and now for the benefit of others who may be afflicted with insomnia feel it my duty to report what happened, so far as am able to recall the details.
 First. let me say my friend was right. l did go to sleep very soon after my retirement. Then a friend with his head under his arm came along and asked me if l wanted to buy his feet I was negotiating with him when the dragon on which l was riding slipped out of his skin and left me floating in midair. While I was considering how should get down, a bull with two heads peered over the edge of the wall and said he would haul me up if 1 would first climb up and rig windlass for him. So as l was sliding down the mountainside the brakeman came in, and asked him when the train would reach my sta tion.
 We are passed your station 400 years ago." he said calmly, folding the train up and slipping it into his vest pocket,
 At this juncture the clown bounded into the ring and pulled the centerpole out of the ground. lifting the tent and all the people in it up. up, while l stood on the earth below watching my self so out of sight among the clouds above. Then awoke. and found ] had been asleep almost ten minutes. --Good Health Clinic.
