WAR IN SPAIN INEVITABLE.
Pretender Don Jaime Ready to Lead
Carlists to Battle.

San Sebastian, Spain-At the con-
clusion of conference between King
Alfonso and Premier Canalejas, it was
announced that Marquis Emilio de Ole
da, Spanish ambassador to the Vatican,
had been recalled.
At the same time the opinion was
expressed that rupture with the Vat
ican was inevitable. Senior Canalejas
told the king that the government
could not accept the conditions of the
Vatican's last note, and that the Vati-
can would be so informed.
Don Jaime, the pretender, has is
sued a manifesto in which he says he
will lead the Carlists in the battle
which he intimates is coming soon.
The general situation is complicated
by the unrest among the miners in the
Catalonian provinces and the occasion
al clashes between the Catholic and
nom Cathloic elements throughout the
country.
Marquis de Ojeda himself in addition
to pleading illness, has been insisting
on his return, on the ground that the
position at Rome no longer was tena-
BILE, and that he considered rupture
between the Vatican and the govern
ment imminent.
Premier Canalejas, referring to the
Vatican's last note, which declared
that unless the decree of June ii per-
mitting non Catholic societies to dis
play the insignia of public worship was
withdrawn, negotiations looking to the
revision of the concordat would be dis
continued, said the government would
tolerate no imposition.
Spain's recalling Ambassador de
Ojeda, it is expected, will be followed
by the departure from Madrid of Mgr.
Vico, the papal nuncio, when the rup-
ture will be. complete.
Senior Canalejas is preparing for a
supreme battle. In addressing a Lib
eral organization he declared that
Spain was struggling for liberty of
conscience, "Poor Spain," he said.
eff we succumb, it will be decadence.
The government, which possesses the
confidence of the king, will save Spain
despite all and against all. The strug-
gle we wage is not anti-religious, but
anti-clerical. We count upon the
army, majority in parliament, and
reason"

INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE STATE|
.ExPEcT $4,000 DELEGATES.
Portland Plans to Entertain National
Woolgrowers' Convention.


Portland-That Portland will reap
fully 50, 900, 900 as a result of the Ma
tional Wool Growers convention and
the National Sheep show January 4, s,
and 7, 1911, is the belief of persons
prominently identified with commercial
activity in the city. a3
The National Wool Growers Con-
vention and Sheep Show, the first
ever held in Oregon, is expected to
bring into Portland fully $4,000 dele
gates and persons interested in the
sheep and wool business
Members of the Portland CONNER
cial club and Oregon Wool Growers
association met with George S. Walk
er. secretary of the National Wool
Growers association, and formulated
plans for the largest convention and
show ever held in the history of the
sheep or wool industry in the United
States. .a. i
A number of innovations are to be
introduced at the Portland show.
Among these will be an exhibition Of
collie and shepherd dogs, of which the
Northwest has many breeders and fan
ciers. This exhibition will be for both
exhibition and working" animals.
The latter will be worked" as on a
sheep range for the edifcation of the
visitors.
Arrangements are being made by c.
B. Minten, secretary of the show, for
a monster exhibition of Angora goats
simultaneously with the sheep show.
Always heretofore at the annual show
this feature has been neglected, but
at the January show it is planned to
make this a stellar attraction. ''The
brand of mohair grown in Oregon ex-
ceeds that of any part of the United
States," said Mr.. Minton, "and as the
industry is much followed in Oregon,
we hope to have fully 1000 thorough
bred Angora goats at the exhibition. ;"
Not only will awards be given to
prize sheep, but the fat stock and
mutton will have a special department
with cash awards. This is also an in
novation.
Negotiations have been opened to
obtain the armory for the sheep show
and the convention sessions.

Prehistoric Find Made.

Auburn, Cal.-The bones of two pre-
historic humans with low brows and
heavy jaw bones have been found in
an ancient cave on the limestone prop
erty that is being opened up near Cool,
Eldorado county. The company own
ing the ground gave to DIR. Sawyer, of
Auburn, permission to open and ex-
plore the cave and recover any curios
it might possess. In one chamber we're
found portions of two human skeletons.
They are believed to be those of mem
bers of race that inhabited this coun-

roundlngs and Fear.
Antioch, Cal. - One after another,
four little children were drowned in a
tub by their mother. Two older child
rem tried to preventive murders, but
the woman went about the work in a
strange calm and strength, as though
she had been called upon to make sac
rifice to some unknown power. She
took her arrest in the same quiet
spirit, gazing calmly at her husband as
he struggled with his sagony on coming
home from work to find his babies
dead.
The woman, Mrs. Joseph Mello, wife
of ranchman, said she was tired of
looking forever at the brown hills that
shut in their home. She said she was
afraid that she was losing her mind
and feared her children would inherit
her insanity. After her husband left
home in the morning, she set about her
task. She filled large washtub with
water and gathered the children into
the kitchen.
They were Ramona, years old;
Leona, 2 years old; and Bernal and
Vernal, months old twins. These
put up their arms to their mother
trustingly, and were sent away with

All the country from the Rocky

ed for rain and cooler weather.
The focus of the heat wave seems to
be slowly moving east, although it has
been centered two days in Kansas and
Oklahoma. Thermometers in Kansas
registered 100 and higher. Southern
cities report unusual heat, accompan-
led by fitful showers which are quickly
reduced to steam, making breathing
difficult and painful.
In Chicago the great fight by health
officers and charity organizations is
centered in saving the thousands of
babies. who suffer more from improper
care than from the torridity. Agents
of all the organizations are working
night and day in the Ghetto and other
congested districts warning parents
about overfeeding and neglecting to
battle their children and keep their
houses clean.
In these districts the population is
chiefly sleeping on fire escapes and
doorways and in any open spot where
breath of air may be obtained. Ex-
ira precautions are being taken to
muzzle dogs and to slay all without
licenses, because of the large number
of them going mad from the heat.
At the bathing beaches hundreds
stood in line patiently waiting for

DRAW 2eo FEET IN LENGTH.
Albany Has Longest Wooden Span in
Whole World.


Albany - Work has begn on the
construction of a new draw span in the
big Corvallis & Eastern railroad bridge
spanning the Willamette river at this
city. A draw 260 feet long will be
built, replacing one of similar length
and new pivot pier constructed beneath
it. This pier will be % feet in diam
eter at the top and 81 feet in diameter
at the bed of the river. This 260-foot
draw is the longest wooden draw span
in the world. Local railroad men say
there is no other draw in existence SO
long as this one which is not construct
ed of steel. For many years the local
bridge has held this record. The next
longest wooden draw span, which was
24O feet in length, was on a wagon
bridge in California, which has recent
ly been replaced with steel, so now the
local bridge has by far the longest
swinging wooden span on earth.

and at last l saw l had a bad skin

doctors in different cities but to no
satisfactory result. The plague both

it made 1t impossible for me to walk,

unbearable burden. At last l was
