plaintiff alleged in the original com.

tered into contract for building line
fence between each others property in
Mehama, each party to bear half the
costs thereof. The complaint sets forth
that the defendants will not settle for
their share of the expense, $S1, and asks
the court to give them Judgment for
that amount.

San Francisco, Jan. 15,-lgnace Pad
erewski, the pianist, today cancelled
his San Francisco and Oakland engage

an attack of neuritis. He was expected
to arrive at the latter place tomorrow
afternoon when plans will be discussed
for his appearance later. In a telegram
to Impresario Greenebaum he said:

severe attack of neuritis, to postpone
recitals in Seattle, San Francisco, Oak

The pianist's current tour has been
marked by the cancellation of several
dates. In Denver it was said he did
so because he feared an anarchist dem.
onstration. In Portland the advance
sale was not large enough to satisfy
him. Here, for several days circulars
have been widely distributed asking
people to stay away from his recital

of his last American tour he gave $2O,.

ARMY IS MOVING SLOWLY

The general of the local forces, i. e.,
Chief of Police Shedeck, today sent a
dispatch to the seat of conflict between
the citizens and the "army" of unem-
plOyed, which is now taking place in
the vicinity of McMinnville, asking for
advices as to the movements of the
travelling body. He was advised by re.
turn dispatch that the "army" had not
reached McMinnville as yet, but that
two strangers, man and a woman, pur.
porting to be scouts or forerunners of
the approaching band, arrived there
early this morning, and are laying plans
for siege. The main body was expect
ed there tonight. The army will not
reach Salem until Saturday, it is ex.
pected.
Upon receiving this information the
chief proceeded at once to make prepa.
rations to stop the pugnocious forces
from crossing the Willamette bridge at
this point. He said he believed he could
muster sufficient number of men to-.
gether to repel the attack, but if he
found he could not, he might call upon
the O. N. G.. to lend assistance.
With such war clouds lowering over
Salem and vicinity, politics are being

STEADY FLOW OF
COLO TO INDIA

The absorption of gold by India
continues at a heavy rate, though
last year showed q rather smaller
demand than its predecessor. In
large measure the gold exports to
India are a matter of recent years.
In part they supDlsnt some Of the
silver which has hefn taken y that
country. but in part alsu they are
an entirely new growth from recent
prosperity. So far as they take the
nlsce tf silver they affect that
market dire els, ny decreasing the
demand for it. This Is serious

is FRO !oced S largely in c-nne"

On the other hand, the gold re-
quirements of Innia decrease the
amount available for commercial
purposes. A large part of the gold
sent to that country is in bars,
which r taken for the manufac-
ure of jewlery and generally for
boarding purposes. The coin ex-
ported is a floating supply. most OF
it remaining in the circulation re-
serve or being exported but the
bars stay in the country.
The absorption of the precious

UNUSUAL EFFECT OF
A HEARTY DINNER

Finishing a hearty dinner 3 few
DAYS ago j. E. Jones, a wealthy
real estate man of Pittsburg, Pa.
weighing $50 pounds sighed con-
tentedly and forced a button from
his vest with sucn force that 1t
split in fragments. One of the
pieces struck his friend, Christo-
pher Smith, with whom he was din
ing in the left eye probably de-
stroying the sight. The other piece
caught Smith on the cheek and
opened a wound which required
three stitci es to be closed.
Jones and Smith had just settled
themselves back for a smoke when
Jones heaved a sigh. There was a
snap and before one realized what
had happened the blood was pour
ing from a wound under his COM
panion's left eye and the eyelid was
