WANT POWDER
RIVER WATER

A writ of review was filed with
the clerk of the circuit court today in
the case of r. S. Cockingham and w.
A. Thatcher against John H. Lewis.
II. l.. Holgate and f. M. Saxton, com
prising the board of control of the
state of Oregon, and also o. G. Fin
kelburg, trustee.
The petition sets forth that
on April -, 1909, document was
filed with the board by the state en-
gineer, setting forth that certain ap-
pllcatiors for the appropriation Of
the water of the Powder river, in
Baker county-the applications con-
sisting of those of the petitioners and
o. G. Finkelburg-ha been referred
to the board for their consideration;
also stating that the use of the water
in each case proposed would be a
menace to the public safety and well
fare. 1t then sets forth that prior to
the examination of these applica-
tions that the unappropriated lands
embraced in the application had been
Withdrawn from entry under the
public land laws for irrigation by the
state, and that the withdrawal was
made at the request of the land
board. 1t is alleged further that
the land board, looking to the re-
elimination of these lands, under
the Carey act, entered into a prelin-
mary contract with o. G. Flnkelburg,
trustee. A date was then named by
the board, it is alleged, for hear
ing of the application, and the board
in its decision held that the public
interest demanded that the permit be
Issued to parties having a contract
with the Desert Land Board: that
the petitioners had no such contract,
but that o. G. Finkelburg had en-
tered into a contract along these
lines, and directing the engineer 20
approve the application of the par
ties succeeding in making final
contract with the Desert Land
board.
The petitioners in the writ CON
tend that the board is without iuiis-
diction to say what the public in
terest demands also without juris-
diction to say whether the approprla-
ton of the waters would he a meI-
ace to the public, and that the state
engineer had no authority to refer
the petitioners application to the
board. The case will De heard by
Judge Galloway.

great fire that destroyed the great
Arding & Hobsb store, in Clapham
suburbs at noon today.
Three hundred persons were in
the store when the fire started. A
scene of confusion, bordering on a
panic, ensued when the scores of
shoppers and clerks rushed for the
lifts and stairs.
Several clerks and patrons leaped
from third and fourth-story windows
to the pavement. Others jumped
from an interior balcony to the main
floor which already was burning
fiercely.
Within an hour after the fire was
discovered, the great dome collapsed,
covering adjoining stores with mass
of burning debris. The entire block
in which the store was located was
soon a mass of uncontrolled flames.
1t is feared that many of those
who leaped from the balcony into the
burning court lost their lives. When
the dome collapsed, this section Of
the store was buried in the blazing
ruins. The firemen believe that
many of the missing lie beneath this
debris.
The fire is said to have started
from a defective electric light wire.
The extent of the damage has not
yet been estimated

DRANK
SUGAR
OF LEAD

Mistaking a mineral water bottle
full of sugar of lead for the origin
al liquid, and drinking nearly half of
the poisonous formula was the ex-
perience of j. A. Cooper, prominent
auctioneer salesman of Salem last
night.
Mr.. Cooper had just returned from
a business trip to Springfield, Ore
gon, when, upon entering the home
OF his brother Ross Cooper. on State
street, he noticed the bottle labeled
white Rock Mineral Water" stand
ing upon a sideboard. Mr.. Cooper
thinking it was really mineral water,
proceeded to sample 1t. After taking
the first swallow he came to the
conclusion that 1t must be soda
water. owing to the sweet taste, and
continued to quaff the sugar of lead,
until 1t began to feel queer on It's
downward course. Discovering his
mistake, through his knowledge of
the fact that his brother frequently
kept on hand a bottle of sugar of
lead as a medicine for poison oak.
Mr. Cooper Immediately began a SER
pentine dance about the room, with
the usual vocal accomplishments.
His brother, Ross. called up Dr..
Byrd, and requested his attendance
at the Cooper home at once, and the
doctor instructed that the poisoned
man be given salt water to make him
disgorge the unsavory drink. After
three pints of lukewarm
salt water, and choking down n quart
of milk, without results, a pint of
fire water" was swallowed by Mr..
Cooper when the physician arrived,
TO find his patient resting easily al
though badly frightened.
A few encouraging words on the
part OF the doctor and an extra sup
ply of nerve mustered up by Mr..
Cooper, soon put him out of danger,
the deadly effect the
sugar OF lead generally mas upon the
human system. Today Mr. COoprris

ut is my honest belief that eff
fries and Johnson will fight in Salt
Lake. Tex" Rickard declared to
me with all positiveness the day be-
fore that | started west that the
Nlormbn metropolis will get the
battle. He really believes that more
people can be drawn from the great
centers of population to Salt Lake
than to San Francisco and to prove
his contention he simply hauls out
the geography. Salt Lake, he points
out, is only "a hours from Los Ang-
eles, "a hours from Denver, two
days from Chicago, II hours from
Butte, "a hours from the big New
ada cities, and about 80 hours from
San Francisco, Portland, Seattle, Ia

It was charged in the complain in

League, whic his headed by several
of Salem leadinging ministers and
other religious people, that Chief
Gibson was not performing HIS duty,

men Millard, Lowe and Berger. will
complete their investigation this ev-.
ening and full report pill be hand
ed to the city council.
1t is reported that the committee.
will not recommend trial to the.
council, owing to the charges being
insufficient, but the investigation
brought out facts that lead to negli-
gence on the part of the chief I'm
small matters which have been in
evidence for years. and which have
not been taken particular notice Of,
owing to their insignlficance.
From the information that could
be CLEANED today, the committee on

much to blame for th eaction taken
as the chief himself due to the fact
that their attention has not been d.
rected strictly to the actual condt-
tions of the city affairs under police
In all probability, the public will
be assured that in the future the
enforcement of the city laws concern

As soon as she is married she is her
