NEGRO LYNCHED FOR
KILLING POLICEMAN

Oglethorpe, Ca, Nov. S.--Two ne
groes were lynched today following
the murder Of Policeman Bush, at
Montezuma, as a result Of an elec-
tion quarrel. The mob caught Jack
Napier, one Of Bush's assailants, and
hanged him. Then 1t stormed the
jail, took out Bryan, the other assail-
ant, and strung him up beside Napier.
Both bodies were then riddled with
bullets before the mob dispersed.

cuted.
Sergeant of Police e. l.. Crate re-
ported to the society his work dur
ing the month, which consisted
largely in the arrest of persons
working horses with sore shoulders,
crippled and old and out of working
condition.
The committee on the ambulance
reported that the society had pur-
chased at cost of $1,000 an am
'bulance for horses, and that the
same would be in operation in a
very short time
The same committee also reported
visits to the city pound, in charge Of
Poundmaster Boyd welch. Mr..
Welch is doing the best he can with
the equipment furnished him. 1t Is
certainly a pitiful sight to see the
dogs in the death chamber awaiting
destruction by means of the impro-
vised apparatus furnished the
poundmaster. This equipment is
antiquated, and consists of an old
street-sprinkling tank into which is
conducted a stovepipe leading from
a stove in which is burned charcoal
and sulphur. The dogs are killed
by this poisonous gas. The COM
mittee believes the people should
heartily indorse the endeavor of the
Humane society to obtain control
and charge of the disposition of
dogs whose owners are unwilling to
pay licenses. AS matter of fact
Portland is very much behind other
cities in this matter of city pound.
The Middle Western and Eastern
cities have adopted the Rochester
system of fining the owner in case
of failure to pay the license, and con-
siderable revenue is derived there
from, so that humane equipment is
provided for the care and DISPOSE
tion of the animals.
President August Berg is endeav-
oring to have the work of the So
clety extended throughout the state,
by the organization of branch So
cieties in the different counties.
On September %, the society sent
communication to 80 ministers of
this city, asking that the various
pulpits take up the question of the
condition of the streets of the City
of Portland, and asking assistance in
the discussion of the humane work.
Strange to say, from 80 letters
there was only one response, and no
action from single pulpit. It is
quite difficult for the society to
reconcile this attitude, but it is not

Friday.
e. j. Wood, special agent, report
ed investigation and action upon 10
cases, including cruelty to horses
and children. The struggle of a
horse in Portland is pitlful one.
Overlooking, improper shoeing and

the smooth surface paving, is MAX

The Humane society is devoting
its attention at present principally to
the condition of the streets and
cruelty to the horses. In this 1t has

The special agent has been able to
experiment by sanding the streets

Physiognomy of the Salesman

bears the appearance of breadth just above the
wings. This is the that indicates the ability
to acquire property, make good sales, secure re-
turns through bargains and fine talking, and
get large orders when persons have indi
Gated that they did not wish to buy or make
bargain. The thickness of the nose above the
wings is the true facial sign of aequisitveness
and a travelling salesman and a good business
man have generally this characteristic strongly
developed. We find 1t large In George Peabody,
Andrew Carnegie and the Rothschds, all Of
whom have made large fortunes
The lips of good salesman regular and
fit appropriately together.
The chin and jaw of successful salesman are
indicated by their squareness and roundness COM

and the squareness gives the capacity to clinch
the bargain.
The voice of successful salesman is bright,
CHEEKY, optimistic. Its infections hopeful and
airy, not heavy and dull. The salesman possesses
a silvery toned voice which is oiled to its sub
ject that II knows exactly what to say and says

same-the public got the worst of 1t.
Various cities have made efforts to devise
some means of testing taximeters, but to Uncle
Sam belongs the credit of first solving the prob
lem. The system is In successful operation
at the capital of the nation, where, by the way
there are probably taxicabs in operation
than in any other city of the size In the world
The matter of keeping tab on the taximeters was
placed In the hands of Col w c. Haskell the
United States superintendent of weights and
measures. and he invented the first machine spe-
cially designed for testing the accuracy of the
taxi"
The first apparatus rather cumbersome
and the most conspicuous feature was large
wooden wheel which was turned by hand The
principle OF operation involved the insertion OF a
small wire through the shaft of the meter to be
tested and turning the certain number of
times to cover distance, verifying this test over
an official mile and fraction thereof. The large
machine when fitted with the same size eccentric
sprocket wheel and spiral shaft In use N taxi
cabs gave correct test, but 1t was time-con-
Stunning process, ten revolutions of the large wheel
being required to show one-quarter mile of travel
After much study OF the subject Colonel Has
ke perfected the small machine which has lately
been introduced for this work. With 1t one revo-
luton of the crank wheel-through the aid of a
system of cogwheels-represents quarter OF a
mile OF travel. With this small machine attached
direct TO the shaft of the meter to be tested
1t is possible to test ten meters In the time for
merly required for trying out one. Moreover, the
systen of cogwheels is so adjusted as to give an
absolutely accurate test. The government now
requires that all taximeters attached to cabs at
the seat OF government be tested at least twice
year and when a meter upon test is found to be
accurate round blue seal Is affixed to the face
of the meter showing that 1t has been zap
proved" Incorrect meters are given a yellow
seal with the word Condemned" thereon and
must be withdrawn from use under penalty OF
500 fine
