the horse under control it began to
buck, and the girl was thrown from
her saddle.
She fell close to the heels of the ami
NAL. which kicked at her several times
but fortunately did not strike her, al

within an inch or so of her face. Her
companion drove the horse away and
helped Miss Harrison to her feet.
She was bruised seriously and one
foot was wrenched, but she will be able
to be about in short time.

LOWEST BID COMES
FROM LONG BEACH
NO AWARD MADE FOR OCEAN,

Belief Is Expressed That New Figures

Wanted to Be Done at
Portland
No. 4 Pine Street.
Phone Home $50

LONG BEACH, March 26.-Yesterday
the port of Portland commission re-
jected all bids submitted on the con-
struction of two ocean-going tugs. OF
the bids submitted, that of the Craig
Shipbuilding company of Long Beach
is the lowest by about $4,000.
officers of the company here believe
the hue and cry against letting the con-
tracts to any firm outside of the city
of Portland was so great the commits
sion resorted to the above as the only
method of keeping the contract away
from the Craig company.
President John F. Craig will return
from Portland either Sunday or Mon
day. Whether or not he will submit
bids when they are advertised for again
is uncertain. Craig bid 100000 on one
tug and $204,000 on, both. The Will
lamette iron works of Portland submit
ted the next lowest bid.
