AVIATOR
ATWOOD IS
IN TOLEDO

Sandusky, o., Aug. 17.-Arriving
here today after his across-the-lake
flight from Toledo, Aviator Atwood
made the following statement to the
United Press:
(By Harry N. Atwood.)
New York is first above everything
That's the slogan. l do not care
about exhibition flights. l am not a
circus performer 1t is my ambition
to reach New York in the quickest
time possible, and break the cross
country record. The trip has been a
picnic so far, and have enjoyed ev-
cry inch of it, having had no mis-
haps as yet.
Flights should not be made when
conditions are unfavorable. 1t is be-
cause of the insistence of air-meet
promoters that flying is some times
done when 1t is merely waste of
lives. The responsibility of the bar
barous deaths of Aviators Badger and
Johnstone at Chicago rests with the
promoters of the meet.

not as heavy as in the two northern
states.
Bidding for the leftover crops of
the past eight seasons is active here
as well as in New York. It is report
ed that 40 cents was paid in New
York state for 1910 hops.
Growers here are starting to pre-
pare for the picking season. They
are advertising for pickers, and al
ready have made contracts with
many men, women and children for
the work. They are offering to pay
the usual rate of 81 per 100 pounds
for the work. Many farmers declare
that, even in the face of the present
advanced market, they are unable
to pay more, inasmuch as they have
contracted to dispose OF their hops
for prices much lower than those now
pevailing. Some farmers have long
term contracts, and will not get more
than 10 cents for their crop. Those
who are thus unfortunate say that an
advance in the rate of picking would
be real financial hardship. The cost
of picking is based on green hops,
while the sale price is made on dry
goods. The hops depreciate more
than rs per cent in weight in the
drying process.

NOW THE GIRL

HYPTONIZED

San Bernardino, Cal, Aug. H.
Jealousy of another girl on whom
DR.. A. w. McDavit, wealthy dentist,
is alleged to have showered pres
ents, caused Miss Jessie Mcdonald,
81, daughter of a prominent build
ing contractor, to go before the dis
trict attorney today and tell the
story of her Is months stay in the
room adjoining McDavit's dental Of
fees. AS the result McDavit was
charged with statutory offense and
his preliminary hearing set for Au-

Wit" Miss Mcdonald told the dis

Wiley accepted responsibility for
the employment of Dr. H. H. Rusby
but stated that he had discussed the
matter fully with Secretary Wilson.
The chief chemist then exhibited a
letter from Wilson creating the food
and drug board, which said that the
president approved of the creation of
the board.
Testifying to the effect that he is
notified at the beginning of each fs-

SEVEN ARE
INJURED IN
COLLISION

Everett, Wash, Aug. 17.-Seven
persons were severely injured and
others bruised yesterday when an in
terurban car running between Sno-
homish and Everett crashed into the
rear end of a car, which had been
stopped on a curve by mishap to
the trolley.
Both cars were crowded with pas
sengers coming to Everett to attend
a circus. The rear vestibule of the
leading car and the forward vesti-
bule of the rear car were crushed
and splintered, and the standing car
shot forward 300 feet by the impact
of the collision.
Among the injured are:
List OF Injured Given.
Joseph Bebeu, Everett, leg broken;
T. Bauer, leg broken; Mrs. Houck,
Snohomish, ankle sprained; Andrew
Martinson, Arlington, hand cut and
hip wrenched; Mrs. ]. Vcomer, Ma
chiss, arm wrenched, wrist sprained;
Miss Bessie Ashman, Getchell, right
leg wrenched; L. M. solace, Snohom-
ish, face cut and body bruised.
Motorman Walter Burch, on the
rear car, remained at his post and
escaped unhurt, although the vesti-
bule was crushed around him, A
small boy standing on the rear Ves-
tibule of the leading car was cata-
paulted through the car and was
picked up unconscious. He was not
seriously hurt.
Woman Caught In Wreckage.
Miss Ellen Jensen, living near Mud
gett's Mill, had boarded the forward
car shortly before the accident and
was standing on the rear platform
When the cars met she pitched back
ward and to one side. Her foot
caught in the wreckage and she was
carried, hanging head downward, the
full distance travelled by the forward
car after the impact.
Her clothing was torn to shreds,
but she escaped injury. When the
car stopped she was released from
her perilous position and walked un-
aided to her home, where she
changed her clothing and returned in
time to catch a relief car and pro-
coed to Everett.
Four of the more seriously injured
were taken to hospital at Snohom-
ish, three were brought to a hospital
here and others went to their homes
after treatment on the ground by
physicians hurried to the scene on
relief car.

HOP PRICES - Y
CLIMBING TO
FIFTY CENTS
YET, OWING TO CONDITIONS,
THE GROWERS SAYS THEY
CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY
ABOVE THE USUAL PRICE FOR
PICKING.

Hop options of As cents a pound
have been offered by Portland deal
ers in the last few hours, but grow
ers refuse to bind themselves to
any such agreement, and are de-
manding straight purchase at As
cents, says the Oregonian this
morning.
While no actual business has been
done at As cents, the market is firm
ly estimated at 40 cents.
However, the situation was decid-
edly dull yesterday, indicating that
farmers are holding out for even
higher prices. Sales at As cents are
predicted for today
Buyers Have Difficulty.
Dealers and brewers have been
trying hard to buy hops at the new
figure, but they have not been able
to do business on an extensive scale.
McNeff Bros, the heaviest operators
on the local market, yesterday bought
1000 pounds at 40 cents from grow
ers at Dallas, Independence and
Woodburn. They have negotiations
for additional business at this figure
pending. The activity of McNeff
Bros. has amazed all other dealers
in the local field, many of whom are
speculating on their market for the
heavy purchases that they have been
making. That the McNeffs have all
the goods that they are able to buy
already placed is certain. In many
instances they are paying cash de-
posits of 10 cents a pound with their
orders.
Cable advices from England are
that the drouth continues, and that
the prices are advancing rapidly. In
Germany the shortage of the conti-
mental crop, as compared with that
of 1910, was estimated at 100000
cwts. The weather there is warmer
and many hops are going to ruin.
Picking will start in both England
and Germany next week. The New
York state crop. it is estimated, will
be approximately 10000 bales.
Northwest Crop Leads.
Oregon and Washington are the
only parts of the world that will pro-
duce their normal crops this year
California also will have the usual
supply, but the production there is

DISAGREE
ABOUT TIME
OF ELECTION

Whether to submit the question OF
adopting commission form of gov
ernment next month or defer 1t until
late in the fall is a question which is
puzzling the commission appointed
to frame charter for a commission
form of government for the city.
Many members of the commission
believe that as soon as the charter Is
framed that an election should be
Immediately held on the subject.
Others believe in deferring the elec-
ton until late in the fall so as to give
the people in general an opportunity
to study and become fully acquaint-
ed with all the provisions entering
into the charter In addition to that.
1t Is asserted, by those fayoring fall
election that during September many
people will be out of the city, and
that the vote Will. be light--would
not be representative vote of the
people in the city.
Cost Also Perplexing.
Another feature in connection with
the submission OF the question that
is creating considerable discussion
Is the cost of the election. In ad-
dition to the regular cost of having
clerks and judges, It will be neces-
sary TO either publish the charter in
a daily paper for five consecutive IS
sues, or to have enough copies
printed so that they can be placed
in the hands Of voters. The char
ter, including the title of the ord-
nance, will consist of so pages-full
pamphlet pages, and If printed in a
newspaper will consume the greater
portion, If not all of it.
Both questions will be raised and
disposed Of at the next meeting Of

Proper Restrictions.

81 believe that the government
should own the railroads from the

there, can be no danger of monopoli-
zation of transportation by any SER

Further, the government should
own and control the coal mines. It
should not, however, operate them,
This can be safely left to private

strictions."

CASCARETS CLEANSE
LIVER AND BOWELS
No BiliOusness, Headache, Sick, Sour
stomach, Indigestion, Coated
Tongue or Constipation.

Furred Tongue, Bad Taste, Indi-
gestion, Sallow Skin and Miserable
Headaches come from a torpid liver
and clogged bowels, which cause your
stomach to become filled with undi-
gested food, which sours and fer
ments like garbage in swill barrel.
That's the first step to untold misery
indigestion, foul gases, bad breath,
yellow skin, mental fears, everything
that is horrible and nauseatlng. A
Cascaret tonight will give you a
thorough cleansing inside and
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep-a 10-cent box
brom your druggist will keep you
feeling good for months. Millions of
men and women take a Cascaret now
and then to keep their stomach,
liver, and bowels regulated, and
never know a miserable moment.
Don't forget the children-their lit
tie insides need good, gentle cleans
ing, too.
