WOULD HAVE OFFICIALS
GO AFTER PRISONERS

Figures prepared by Governor
West show that it costs the state far
mare for the transportation of its
prisoners to the penitentiary than 1t
does to transport the patients to the
asylum, and will ask the legislature
to amend the law on the subject,
Under the present law, with rela-
ton to the asylum, attendants are
sent to counties where patients are
committed to bring them to the inst!-
tuition. Prior to the enactments Of
this law the sheriffs performed this
work. A comparison shows that un-
der the present law quite a saving is
made. Under the present law, rela-
tive to the penitentiary, sheriffs bring
the prisoners to the institution and
the governor believes that If the leg
islature will enact law with relation
to the penitentiary, which will be sim
liar to that now pertaining to- the
asylum, that a great saving can be
effected

PREPARING ESTIMATES
FOR STATE INSTITUTIONS

After wrangling for over a month
over the estimates for appropriations
for the state institutions, it begins
to look now as though the state board
will have them ready the first part
of the week.
There is a diversity of opinion
among the members of the board rel
atlve to the estimates prepared by
the superintendents. Some are in
favor of them, others in favor of ap-
plying the pruning knife. The result
will probably be that no agreement
will be reached, and that when the
estimates finally go to the legisla-
ture they will do so as estimates Of
the superintendents, and not under
the fathership of the board
Generally the appropriations will
be higher for all Of the institutions

day. This number will be divided into
six parts for the various editions going

have required two cents postage, while

is but one cent, except to Multnomah

SALEM HIGH
PUT IT OVER
PORTLAND
FOR THREE YEARS THE TEAMS
HAVE BEEN PLAYING SCORE.
LESS GAMES, BUT THE SPELL
WAS BROKEN SATURDAY.

Seven to one is the way the Salem
football team handed It to the aggre
cation from the Portland academy In
the game on the local university
grounds Saturday afternoon. The vic.
tory was decisive and breaks a tie
that has existed between the two
teams for three years. At the begin
ming of the game each team felt con-
fldent Of victory and in fact the teams
are evenly matched. The work done
by the locals shows splendid training
for so short time, the forward pass
being handled very successfully a
number Of times. The Portland aggre-
cation did not show as good training
as the local team, although some very
good work was done by the visitors
During most Of the game the Portland
goal was in danger number of times
and in fact the entire game, with a
few exceptions, was played on the
Portland end of the field. Penn, for
the locals, while not a large man, is
certainly a powerful and effective
player. AS fullback he was the star
Of the game from the local standpoint,
while Barnes held him close second.
Miles for the locals also did good
work as did Hendricks and Farmer.
Brix, halfback for the visitors, was
a most effective player especially
when 1t came to punting. His kicks
were remarkably well made, succeed
ing in doing better work than Penn,
who is considered a top-notcher. The
scores were made in the third quarter
while the pigskin was painfully close
to the Salem's goal, forward pass be-
ing made to Barnes, who was standing
outside the line to receive 1t, Penn
kicked the goal

signal Three rings gives warning OF
something dead ahead.
The crows nest is much higher than
the bridge and often in foggy weather
an officer will mount to the nest, be-
cause sometimes the fog is low lying
and those in the nest can see over the
fog and so distinguish other vessels.
Report by Telephone.
On the German lines one man Is
used in the crows nest and men are
stationed on the forecastle head and
others on the wings of the bridge.
The reports are made from the crows
nest by telephone or gong. These men
are on duty for two hours In fair
weather and have four hours of, but
in severe weather the changes are
made more frequently. They give the
usual cry each half hour as the bell
sounds. calling out "All's well!" and
other men echo IL from stem to stern
of the vessel.
Each line has its own night signal.
II is a coston signal which throws
different colored balls or stars when
burning.
These signals are used to signal an
approaching vessel, the name of the
line to which the vessel signaling be-
longs. and after the interchange OF
signals the officers make an entry In
the logs telling the hour and place OF
meeting. In case of distress or in an
accident when help is wanted the
night signals are the firing of guns at
regular intervals and three rockets
which explode in the air. sending out
a shower of sparks and balls of col
ored fire. These are ordinary rockets.
but of higher power, and attract at
tention at considerable distance. A
captain on seeing these rockets knows
at once that some vessel is in distress
and needs assistance and acts accord
ingly.
In the modern vessels improvements
I have been made in instruments used
/ for safety. The submarine telephone
/ is a modern invention and is carried
/ and used on every passenger ocean
steamer. The telephone has grown
/ In it's uses at sea, and telephones lead
/ from the bridge to all parts OF the
vessel. Before the telephone was psr-
fected speaking tubes were used, and
often messengers ran from the bridge
TO the engine room or to some other
part Of the ship.
The man in the crows nest used to
call the attention of those on the
bridge by blowing horn and then
pointing toward a sail. smoke. wreck
age or ice that he might have seen
after which those on the bridge would
have to search to find what the look
out had seen. Things are simpler now
and much time is saved when a YES
