HIS TRIAL
l,oHt 90 d7 i.)itfaf'
WILL START
A SCANDAL
BARON PATERNE, WHO MU R.
DERED HIS MISTRESS, THE
PRINCESS TRIGONA AT ROME,
BLACKMAILED MANY COURT
LADIES.

Rome, July 9.-All attempts of the
friends of Baron Paterne, the cavalry
lieutenant, who murdered his mis-
tress, Princess Trigona, lady-in-wait-
ing to the queen, to have him COM
mitted to a mad house have failed.
His trial, it has just been learned,
will be moved later in the month
and it is believed a scandal, far
reaching in it's effect, will result.
Palermo murdered the princess,
who was one of the most beautiful
women at the Italian court, because
she had told him that she was going
to end their relations. He decoyed
her to an obscure hotel and demand
ed that she give him enough money
to pay his debts. When she refused
he killed her and tried to shoot him
self.
Letters found in the corsage of the
princess showed that Paterno had
blackmailed her out of an enormous
sum and that other ladies prominent
at the court had been blackmailed by
him and compelled to keep him in
! funds.
Fears that the contents of letters
he received from them might become
public. led influential court attaches
to have the matter closed by sending
Palermo to the mad house.

kept off and celebrations took place
at the prominent cities.
The death roll was heavy, partic-
ularly in the East At Ottawa light
ming struck a hotel and killed a IA
year-old girl. The extreme heat
which followed this storm induced
many to go swimming. Joe Bren-
nan, of Ottawa college, was drowned
at Kinks ferry; Albert Massey, c.
P. R. bridge builder, was drowned in
Paken dam, and Frank Ronald, a G.
P. R. employe, was drowned in Ri
deau. The body of ex-Alderman

was found in the same river, while
word was received at late hour last
night Of the finding of another body.

The contest for queen ended in a
big deposit of "hold-over" tickets,
friends Of each candidate holding
back large number for a final tidal
wave. 1t was not expected the total
vote would go above 10000, and in
fact at 1 o'clock Saturday, when the
vote was counted. and only nine
hours before the close of the contest.
but 20,155 votes had been cast,
which was practically but a third Of
the total. Miss Cooder, in the after
noon, stood in third place, with 1909,
Miss Gregory second with 1919, and
Miss Mclaughlin in the lead with
1908. Miss Stella Walling, who was
fourth in the final count, was third,
while Miss Cooder made a wonderful
showing, increasing her vote more
than 10000, but Miss Mclaughlin
maintained her lead, adding nearly
$4,000 to her vote.
The ballot boxes were gathered at
10 o'clock by Mr. McGilchrist, chair
man of the queen contest committee
and Col. Hofer, chairman of the pub
licity committee, and the counting
was done by these gentlemen with
Jas. R. Linn, president of the assoeia-
tion, Hal D. Patton and Fred S. By
non. The ballots have been kept,
so they can be recounted If desired.
The contest has been a remarkably
warm one, and yet only the best of
feeling prevailed through it all.
The other contestants, or the two
higher at least, will be invited to act
as maids Of honor.

VIII Give Meet.
Should the flights this afternoon be
successful and there is every reason
Cherry Fair committee desires 1t, a
meet will be held under its auspices
at the State Fair grounds during the
fair. Should 1t decline to entertain
the proposition made to it by the
manufacturers, they themselves will
undertake to give the meet. When
seen today they stated the machine
was in perfect working condition and
that there was no doubt but that,
provided weather conditions were at
all favorable, that one successful
fight after the other could be made.
Besides the committee, many other
citizens are planning to go and wit
ness the flights this afternoon.
Home Made Product.
The aeroplane is huge affair. It
is capable of carrying two men and
is patterned after the Curtis aero
plane. 1t took the manufacturers
just four weeks to construct 1t, and
they had made plans to test 1t some
time ago, but weather conditions
have prevented them from doing so
until yesterday.
This is the second machine manu-
factured by Ben Taylor. The first he
made jointly with DR.. Scovell, and
while 1t was given several tests, they
never proved successful 1t was sold
several months ago to Corvallis par
ties. This present aeroplane, while
made along the same line, has some
new features and is also considerable
larger and more substantial.

PASSES AN ALMOST
PERFECT EXAMINATION

Miss Fannie Calvin, of Eugene, so
far has the distinction of having the
highest average of any of the teach
ers taking the late teachers examina-
tion. Her average is 97-9-11 and
while all the papers have not yet
been examined, the mark is so high
that it is not believed by those in
charge that it will be surpassed.
Miss Calvin is an applicant for a
one year state certificate. In none
of the subjects in which she was eX-
amined has she fallen below a grade
of 95 and she can boast of making
