YIELDS STOLEN
FOWL IN FIGHT
WITH POLICE
Negro, Cornered in Alley by Pa
troImen, Is Taken Only After
Terrific Battle.

Policemen Turner and Duncan
swung their nightsticks with vigor as
they patrolled their beat at O'Clock
Friday morning. The policing bust
ness was exceedingly dull and they
peered into alleys and areaways, hop
ing against hope that "Gyp the
Blood" would run out and test their
mettle.
At Piedmont avenue and Harris
street q negro ran down the street
and slipped into an alley. Three
chickens squawked in his clutches.
Policeman Turner looked at Police
man Duncan.
Shall WEI" he inquired hoarsely.
Wed better" replied Policeman
Duncan.
So, with Establishment of night
sticks and loud commands to stop,
they dashed into the alley after the
thief. The negro stopped, all right.
Also he flung a chicken at the officers,
striking Duncan on the head.
Turner rushed into the fray while
Duncan disentangled himself. The
thief slammed a chicken at Turner,
but missed
The policeman grabbed the negro
and he began beating the policeman
with a squawking chicken. He picked
up one of the other chickens and then
began a terrible battle-two police
men and their billies against thief
with two live, squirlning chickens.
The policemen rushed and the ne
gro lost the range. His chickens Were
useless He threw them down and
began biting. He bit both policemen:
Turner drew his pistol. The thief
gra bbed 1t and turned It on the po-
liceman. Only the presence Of Tur-
ner's finger behind the trigger saved
him from death. Duncan knocked The
negro cold with his billy and he was
take to headquarters.
At the station ii developed that Po-
licemen Watson nd Jones had beer
chasing the same thief two hours. The
negro gave his name az Henry Lang
ford He had gone TO the henhouse 81
Florence Green, negress, at HoustoI
and Butler streets and was surprised
by the woman.
She tried to hold the negro until the
policemen came. Before Jones dnC
Watson got there, however, Langforc
pushed omen the door, knocked The
woman down with a chicken and es-
capped, taking three fowls with him.

lutlons read by State President Mrs.

The convention adjourned, and the

Clash Over Fund.
A stir over the $4,000 Francis s.
Barlow memorial fund that for some
time has lain idle without drawing
interest was precipitated when Miss
Mildred Rutherford introduced a res
olutton favoring the investment of
the money in a farm contiguous TO
the Rabun Gap School
After a spirited debate, during
which 1t was with difficulty that the
president kept the participants from
engaging in personal arguments. the
resolution passed by a vote of 65 to
Is.
Opposition to the resolution was
strongly presented by Mrs Grady, of
Savannah, who was understood to
speak for Mrs. A. B. Hull leading
member of the memorial committee.
The uncertainty of income from land
vas stressed, and legal obstacles were
suggested
Miss Rutherford Wins.
The resolution was well supported
by Miss Rutherford, who had intro
duCed it at the instance of Mrs.
Baxter, who was unable to attend the
convention. 1t was claimed that the
property could be made to yield an
income Of $4,000 annually, and that
the aid was greatly needed by the
Kabun Gap School.
A proposition to handle the invest
ment through a chartered memorial
hoard was objected to, on the ground
that it would take the property out
Of the hands of the State division.
A motion to carry the question over
to the next convention, and a sug-
gestion that the whole matter be re-
ferred to committee to unravel the
legal difficulties were voted down.

One OF the hardest games that the
high basketball men will have to play
this season will be that Of tomorrow

the fast aggregation Of that school.
Last year the Eugene team held the
Salem players down to a --6 score, and
as It has a great deal better team
this year is expecting to win out
by an even greater score. But the sa-
lem team is also a great deal fasten
than a year ago, 80 an exceedingly
fast and close game is looked for by
both teams.
The lineup Of the two teams will
probably be as follows;

MINIMUM WAGE BILL
TO COME UP TUESDAY

When the minimum wage bill, intro
duced by President Malarkey Of the
senate, is publicly discussed in tho
supreme court chamber at the state
house on Tuesday evening, there will
be present several women boosters Of
the measure, who have made a study
of conditions, by hiring out as work.
ing girls, and who will enter into the
discussion of the merits of the bill.
Among those men will be Miss Car
ollne j. Gleason of Portland. Miss
Gleason hired herself out as labor
ing girl, and will submit statements
showing that the average wage paid
women is 81 week, She contends
that $40 a week is the very least on
which a woman can live. She de-
clares that the present wages paid wo-
men are not conducive to morals.

FIRST CLASS, OR NONE.

r ENTLEMEN Of the legislature,
Othe proposition of arranging Ore
gon's display at the Panama Ex-
position is in your hands. So Is the
good name and standing Of the state.
The occasion is one Of the great
events of the worlds history, and the
whole civilized world Is taking part
in 1t. Every nation in Europe will
be represented there, and each will
expend large sums of money. 1t is
up to you TO say how much shall be
appropriated that Oregon may be
properly represented. California is
expendlng $1S,000,OO0, at least, and
she has generously given Oregon her
choice Of sites at the grand exposl-
ton, she getting the first selection.
In view Of the amounts other rtates
are expending, $500,OO0 docs not seem
at all extravagant. No state in the
Union except California has so pro-
found an interest in the event as has
Oregon. 1t is our opportunity to let
the world know of our vast resources
our unlmproved lands awaiting set
tlement and development, our Inn
mense timber wealth, our unlimited
waterpower, so great an adjunct to
all manufacturing industries. 1t is
an opportunity to invite a sturdy class
of home builders here, to help us
make our grand old Oregon what she
will in time become, one Of the great
manufacturing states of the Union
as well as she now is, the one with
the greatest natural resources.
Is 1t asking too much, is it really
asking much, to request you, gen.
tlemen to fix Oregons exhibit at hall
a million. This would amount to
about 80 cents per capita year fol
two years. Can we afford not tC
spend It? And remember, too, that
the people of the state, no matter
lwhat a few who are always preach
ing economy may say, are solidly be-
hind you in making an appropriation
that will be a ccredit to them and tC
the state. They want a good exhibit
or they want none, We cannot affort
to make a cheap display-better nont
at all than that. The action Of Sa
LENS business men the other nigh
when they voted unanimously for {
half million dollars appropriation, Il

the state feel. Gentlemen Of the legis
lature, It is up to you. The peopl,

day to cast the vote Of Virginia for
Woodrow Wilson this state witnessed
an occurrence the like Of which has
not been seen in Virginia for nearly a
century.
Not since 1920 has Virginia cleo
toral college cast the vote Of Virginia
for a Virginian. Then James Monroe
was chosen president He was born
in Westmoreland county; he was
elected with only one dissenting vote,
which was cast for John Quincy
Admas, by William Plumer, of New
Hampshire. And from that day until
this year Of grace no electoral votes
from Virginia have been cast for son
Of this commonwealth.
William Henry Harrison was elect
> ed in 1910, and Zachary Taylor was
elected in 1S4S. Both were Virginians
by birth, but neither were Virginians
in politics. Harrison was a whig, and
Virginia voted against him in favor of
Martin Van Buren,, Democrat, of New
York. The votes were close; Van
Buren, receiving only 1892 votes more
than Harrison, in a total of S6,494
votes cast. John Tyler elected vice
president on the ticket with Harrison
succeeded to the presidency on the
death of the latter.
Almost exactly the same situation
arose in 1S4S, when Zachary Taylor, a
Whig, and a Virginian, was defeated
in Virginia, the state Of his birth, by
Lewis Cass, a Democrat, from Michi-
gan. Cass received 1886 votes to
45,124 for Taylor.
No Democrat born in Virginia has
been nominated since then for the
presidency. Woodrow Wilson was
chosen by the Baltimore convention
last year.
The occasion today of the casting of
Virginia's electoral vote for son of
Virginia should therefore encourage
and strengthen all those who look and
hope for the renewal of Virginia's
prestige and the reassertion Of Vir-
ginia's power and place as a leader
among the states of the nation.
