What About the Others.
On the streets there is just as
much talk in favor of recall
against several other members of
the commission as against Mayor
Fawcett. This situation gives
rise to the question. Why have
recall blanks not been taken out
against these other commission
ers before this? When Mayor
Fawcett by mis- anti-treating law
hit at an organized body, The
Royal Arch, recall petitions were
put on the street.
The Royal Arch may disclaim
any interference in the matter
but the problem will not lose it's
interest. People say that Woods
and Lawson and Roys should be
slowed away. But Woods and
Lawson and Roys have not hit
any of the banded interests

large to take the matter in charge

"We are selling more pajames
to women than to men, said Mr..
Burke. "They buy mems pajam-
as thinking we will take if for
granted they are intended for
a husband or son. But we gen.
erally learn before the sale is
made that they really want them
for themselves. They are more
roomy, comfortable and cheaper
than the pajamas made especially
for women.
"The women use them for
working costumes. In one of
these pajama suits woman is
dressed sufficiently for the house
and can get through her work
with more comfort than when
dressed in tightfitting dress OF
the kind women usually wear
around the house.
"Then, if the door bell rings,
it's an easy matter to slip on a
kimono and the housewife is
ready to receive her visitor with
out the latter suspecting that n
quick change has been made from
a. mans to a woman's costume"

kVALSHAUG
TRIAL NEAR
THE CLOSE

The Kvalshaug trial reached the
final stages this morning when
both the State and defense rested
their cases. This afternoon
Judge Chapman will instruct the
jury after which the respective
attorneys will make their final
argument.
1t is expected that the argu-
ments will occupy the court un-
til tomorrow noon when the case
will go to the jury.
The session this morning was
a short one owing to the absence
of witnesses needed in the re-
buttal testimony. The principal
feature was the admission of
Jailer ]. M. Williams who ad-
mitted under cross examination
by Attorney Kelley that he did
not actually see Ray FELTON, en-
ter Mrs. Kvalshaug's cell at the
city Jail. He only saw FELTON, go
up the steps to the cell and come
down again ten minutes later.
Carl M. Carlson, jailer at the
county jail testified that he adj
mitted FELTON, to the women s
ward where Mrs. Kvalshaug was
confined and left him there some
ten or fifteen minutes. He was
not a witness to any conversation.

And not only at night, either,

get up in the morning and put
on their pajamas. They are great
stuff for housework, nice and
loose, you know. Chinese laundry
men have been hep for many
years to the convenience of the

in front of the federal building
by the commissioner of public.
works the city is also haul
big 16-inch cast iron wates IN,
to lay on this street.
Property owners have been
commenting on the situation and
growing warm over what looked
to them like a piece of foolish
ness to lay a new pavement and
not lay the water pipes first.
Commissioner Woods says the
trouble is the pipes have to go
ON the North side of the street
and the new pavement is only on
the south side. The connections
are all on the North side of the
street and it will be necessary
to cut the pavement heretofore
laid to put them in.

|mittee from Tacoma. after thor
|ough investigation of the bridge
question in Portland.
The report was handed to May
or Fawcett; by Mr.. Hoyt and Mr..
Soult at noon today.
1t details the investigation
made by the committee, in which
they took the opinion of officials
and citizens of Portland, and also
their own observation.
They saw the vertical lift bridge
operated-raised in 80 seconds,
held 80 seconds while boat pass
led, lowered in 25 seconds, and
traffic resumed in a total time of
1 minute and 25 seconds from the
time of it's interruption.
Bridge Operator Stutzman hap
[penef to be an old personal friend
|of Mr.. Hoyt. He was opposed to
the bridge in the beginning. He
is enthusiastic for it now.
The city officials and the coun-
ty officials told the committee
that hereafter Portland will stick
to the vertical lift bridge. Plans
|are being made for another one
now by the city engineer. In ad-
|dition to this, the Hartman
railway is putting in a big one of
the same type.
Altogether, the committee was
thoroughly converted to the ver-
tica1 lift bridge.

NEW YORK, Jan. 2O.-A hos
pital for dogs is the basis of a
novel mercy plan announced to-
day as soon to go into operation

BAKER CITY, Ore, Jan. 20
Following a charge of rabid coy
otes into the village of Durkee
last night, citizens armed them
selves and until early today hunt
ed down and shot every dog that
they could find. Not a canine
could be found on the streets to-
day. Several persons were attack
ed by the mad coyotes, according
to telephone message received
here, and it is probable they will
be sent to Portland for the Pasteur
treatment.
The dogs were killed as a num-
ber of them had been bitten by
the coyotes and it was feared
that they would go mad.
This is the first time in the
memory of the "oldest inhabitant"
that mad coyotes banded together.
