All Vehicles Should Show Lights
Hood River, Ore, July IL, 19

Hood River, Ore, July IL, 1877.
Editor Glacier: | wish to call your
attention to the fact that there is a
law which states that all vehicles must
have light at night This applies not
only to automobiles, but to wagons and
buggies as we'll. In driving through
the city and out into the country |
have frequently had narrow escapes
with wagons and buggies without
lights at night especially in making
turns on roads that are lined with
trees. 1t is not only dangerous to the
people in the auto, but more so to
those in the vehicles without lights.
1t might save someone serious ac-
cident if you would publishga letter ad-
vising the people to comply with the
law. Yours very truly,
W. s. Kaestner.

Brush Fire Near Reservoir

Excitement prevailed Friday morn
ing when it was reported on the sound
of the fire bell that the reservoir of
the municipal water system was on
fire. Hundreds of men rushed to the
scene only to find brush in the neigh
borhood of the reservoir burning.
Since the reservoir Is built entirely
of concrete, 1t could not be damaged
by fire, but the recent record number
of disastrous fires here has caused
folks to become nervous.

LONDON. October 6-Some idea of

Hamburg the creates, distributor of
coffee il the whole world. After the
outbreaks OF hostili;ics it was difficult
to import coffee to any German port.
Coffee. hcwever. was urgently required
for the German military and naval
forces, OF whose rations IL formed an
essential part.
Imports of coffee into Holland and
scandinavia for the first year OF the
war exceeded normal requirements by
nearly 100000 bags. or $4,000 tons.
BY far the greatest portion OF tn.
coffee seized in the present cases was

i Intercepted correspondence exposed
the methods Of the Thinks houses in
Brazil. and Hamburg. They were to
procure persons in neutral countries
to lend their names as consrnces and
to act as Intermediates for getting
the coffee through to Germany; to set
up bogus companies for the same pur-
pose: to suppress the names of the real
consisnors and consignces: and TO
manufacture false documents in order
to give their dealings the appearance
of honest. neutral business. .
This was done with the object or

An elaborate web had been spun by

Reason for the condemnation of the

In other cases his lordship held that
the neutral claimants had failed TO
show that the goods had become their
property before seizure: also that the
