LONDON. March 27.-The ninth and

MEDICAL MEETING TONIGHT.
Doctors and Dentists Will Assemble
at Asylum in Salem.

The Tri-County Medical society will
hold its regular meeting tonight in
the auditorium of the Oregon State
hospital ait Salem, and a number of
Dallas medicos will attend. The last
meeting was held in this city two
weeks ago, and at that time the pres
ident's plan to hold a joint meeting
with the dentists Of Polk, Marion and
Yamhill counties was advocated and
adopted. Therefore the meeting at
the asylum this evening will be the
first of its kind ever held by the Tri-
County society and perhaps one of
the first of its kind ever held in the
state. The regular monthly period
that usually elapses between meetings
was cut in half on this occasion and
the reason given is that the work Of
the society, and the lectures and pa
pers read at the meeting are of such
interest and value as to demand that
the meetings occur more frequently.
The accommodations. for an excellent
meeting at Salem are best found at
the asylum auditorium and it is ex-
pected that this meeting will be one
of the most successful in the socie-
ty's history. The attendance will GER
tainly be greatly increased by the at
tendance of the dentists.

LADIES WILL SERVE TEA.
Contributions to Park Fund Asked by
Woman's Club.

A Silver tea will be an event OF
this afternoon at the library, when
the ladies of the Civic section of the
Woman's club and their friends gath
er to hold the first meeting of the
year since the summer vacation. The
Civic section, comprising practically
the entire membership of the club,
has interested itself in the creation of
a fund to start the development of
the city park project, and it is to
create this fund that the ladies will
hold Silver tea in connection with
their regular business meeting. Mrs.
Conrad Stafrin is chairman of the
Civic section and in that capacity ex-
presses hope for very well attended
meeting.
After the regular order of business
has been disposed of the ladies' will
serve light refreshments and tea or
coffee. A plate will be handy to re-
ceive contributions to the park fund,
thereby giving the event its name, al
though it is not required that those
who attend contribute to the fund.
The afternoon will be mostly given
over to a social time and the Silver
tea, and the doors will open for the
business meeting at 2:30 this after
noon.

UNION SPY PENs|ONED
RICKREALL VETERAN OF CIVIL
WAR GETS SLIGHT REWARD.
Harrison J. Rhodes Posed as Peddle1
and Preacher and Travelled
Through South at Will

Through the efforts of W. c. Haw-
ley, representative Iii congress from
this district, Harrison j. Rhodes OF
Rickreall, aged 81 yesterday obtained
pension from the government of
$2l a month. Difficulty was expert
enced in obtaining the pension be-
cause the war department records
bore no evidence of Mr.. Rhodes hav-
ing served in the Union army during
the Civil war, except for a two
months period. This time was insult
ficient to warrant the granting of the
pension.
Mr.. Rhodes served in the Fourth
Iowa cavalry, but at the end of two
months was secretly transferred to
the espionage service, serving in this
department for three years. He trav-
eled through the south posing as a
peddler and preacher, and by visiting
confederate army camps obtained val
liable information for the use of the
Union armies.
During the administration of Presi-
dent Dole of Hawaii, Mr.. Rhodes was
chief of the Hawaiian secret service.

MURDERER's GUN is SOUGHT.
Powerful Magnet to Be Used in
Searching Willamina River.

The Willamina river for some dis
tance above and below the point
where William Booth was murdered
is to be searched with high-poweI
magnets in an endeavor to recover the
revolver with which he was shot. The
bullet that killed Booth was fired
from a revolver of .38 calibre. Foot
prints in the sand on the bank of the
river 2S feet from where Booth fell
showed where the murderer stood.
William Branson, % years old, who
is held in Jail at McMinnville, charg-
ed with committing the murder, bor-
fowed .38-caliber revolver from his
cousin, Milt Carter, last August. This
gun has not been returned and Bran-
son has not given satisfactory ex-
planation of what became of it. The
authorities are working on the theory
that Branson shot Booth and threw
the revolver in the river. If they can
find it they will have the last detail
in a strong circumstantial case.

COURT DIssoLvEs INJUNCTION.
Commissioners May Exercise Discre-
tion in Employing Map Makers.

One OF the last cases before the
present term of the circuit court was
that yesterday afternoon, wherein
Henry Voth, as a taxpayer sought to
enjoin the county court from issuing a
warrant to the Hines Engineering 4
Construction company in payment for
the making of road map of Polk
county, the contention of the COM
plainant being that such work should
be performed by the county surveyor.
Judge Belt dissolved the injunction,
and in his decision of the case held
that the county is vested with power
to employ whomsoever it elects to
make the map in question, provided
such map is desired for its informa-
tion as with regards to the location
of roads and bridges, but that it
could not be considered as an official
document, the law making it in
cumbent upon the county surveyor to
do official work. 1t was claimed by
the plaintiff that the court had con-
tracted with the Hines Engineering
& Construction company to prepare
all maps for road purposes, but this
was refuted by the court.

DIES FROM ACCIDENT.
James Atwater Receives Severe In
juries Causing Death.

James Atwater, a farmer OF the
Airlie neighborhood, died at the hos
pital this morning as result of in
iuries received in a runaway at Air
lie on Saturday. Atwater tumbled to
the road from the rapidly moving
wagon which he was driving and lit
on his head and shoulder. The force
of the fall dislocated the man IS
shoulder and, according to DR.. L. A.
Bollman the attending physician, the
brain seemed to be affected. DR..
Bollman set the dislocated shoulder on
Saturday and other conditions had
become so serious on Monday that
the patient was removed to the Dallas
hospital, where he passed away this
morning. Atwater was about 81 years
old. and was well and favorably
known in his home community. Flu
neral arrangements had not been
made this morning.

KIT-CAT PORTRAITS.
Origin of the Term That Stands For
Stupid Mediocrity.


Several years ago an eastern art crit
ic waxed sarcastic concerning collec-
ton Of paintings on view at one of the
leading New York clubs. In the course
of a vitriolic TRADE he relieved him
self of the assertion that the exhibi-
ton consisted chiefly of kit-cat pOr-
traits. Those who went to the club
rooms expecting to see canvases adorn-
ed with feline compositions were con-
demned to disappointment There was
not a cat picture in the whole show.
What is kit-cat portrait?' was the
burning question of the hour. Why, a
stupid portrait, commonplace piece
of painting that reveals no glimmer of
genius. At this stage Of the explana-
ton the inevitable fnterruption-"But
why do you call 1t kit-cat pictureT'
And not one critic out Of a hundred
had the remotest idea.
The term for stupid mediocrity had
its origin in a collection of forty-two
portraits of prominent men painted be-
tween 1703 and 1720 by Sir Godfrey
Kneller, one of the best known British
portrait painters. They were exactly
the same size and were framed alike;
hence the idea of monotony which led
to the idea of mediocrity. The sub
jects of these portraits were members
of club that met in the tavern of a
celebrated pastry cook, Christopher Cat
called Kit for Shorthand among them
were such men as Addison, Steele,
Walpole and Marlborough. 1t was the
influence of this club that placed George
/. on the throne of England.-Exchange

Doctors did not help me. Sharp pains
extended through my back and were
most severe in my kidneys. I lost
weight and was in very poor health. I
had headaches, rested but little at
night and didn't know what to do.
After using three boxes of Doan's
Kidney Pills, was in better health
than I had been for ten years and not
sign of kidney complaint remained"

side of fixing the fee for the city at
torney at $50 for his connection with
the water works ownership case
which will be tried at the convenience
of the public service commission, and
apportioning the cost of the Uglow

little business was transacted. This
case will be heard before Judge Kelly

At the instance of Mayor Kirkpat-

to discuss the tax budget for the
coming year, after the preparation of
which it will be subWftted to the
people for their approval or rejection
at a public meeting, which will prob
ably be held on November 20. The
mayor suggested to the council that
the budget be prepared behind closed
doors, with the heads OF municipal de-
partments present, this procedure be-
ing taken to expedite matters. The
assessed valuation OF the city, 1T was
brought out by the discussion, is low
