CAVING or
SEWER BANK
HURTS TWO

At S:45 this morning caye-in oc-
Cured on the sewer ditch in the alley
between Commercial and Front streets
at point about 60 feet south Of Di-
vision street. in which one man, Rob
ert Gibson, was severely hurt, and an
other workman was partly buried by
the caying dirt. The workmen were
working at depth Of about IA feet,
and as Mr. Gibson was passing from
one part Of the work to another, with
out any warning whatever, several
tons of dirt caved in and buried Glib
son completely and for several inches
above his head. The other workmen
rushed to his assistance Immediately
and in about 30 seconds had him suf-
floiently uncovered so that he could
get his breath. He was removed from
the ditch and taken to the Willamette
sanatorlum, where he is resting easily.
Wutl nS was Ieilufcu lloH bHC ULCl
the lower part Of his body was partly
paralyzed, and he complained Of Sc

the region OF his shoulders and spine,
but, upon inquiry at the sanatorium,
It was learned that this had passed
away, and that It was probably caused
by the shock. Every attention is be-

that no bones we're broken, and
there we're no internal injuries.
Mr. Gibson is a single man, and has
worked on sewer construction In the

IS GRANTED
TO P. e. {.

When the. ordinance granting a
franchise for individual spurs to the
Portland, Eugene & Eastern Railroad
company came up for consideration at
the meeting of the council last night it
was granted without a dissenting vote
the company having agreed to install
common user clauses in all of its
franchises from the city
The securing Of this franchise by
the company is stated to be its initial
move preparatory to inaugurating a
campaign of railroad building in the
valley. Railroad circles had it some
time ago that the company had taken
over the Stayton project which was be-
ing promoted by NJ L. Reid and this,
1t is predicted, VIII be the first line
built. The company, years ago, con-
templated extensive railroad building
in the valley, and, looking to that end,
Installed street car lines in a number
Of the towns. and also made surveys
in the valley.
The company recently authorized
the issuance of bonds for millions OF
dollars, and 1t is predicted that in
railroad building, before the season is
over, it will contribute its share to-
ward the development of the valley.d

Cough in a Hurry
A Family supply Of UBequnled Cough
Remedy Easily and Cheaply
Made at Home.

Cough medicines, as a rule, contain a
large proportion OF plain syrup--a good
ingredient, but one that anyone can
make. A pint Of granulated sugar with
y pint Of warm water, stirred for 2
minutes, gives you as good syrup as
money can buy.
A 50-cent bottle Of Pinex, mixed in a
pint bottle with homemade sugar syrup,
gives you a full pint Of really better
cough syrup than you could buy ready
mixed for $3.50. There's a clear saving
Of $2.00-and no trouble at ALL
And money couldn't buy quicker,
better remedy. Takes hold at once, gives
almost instant relief, and usually stops
the most obstinate, deep.seated cough IN
"a hours. Ii stimulates the appetite, is
slightly laxative and has a pleasant taste
