There were no guards near enough to
prevent what he intended; but he had
to bear In mind that the guards had
rifles md if he acted TOO suddenly one
OF them might shoot at him unbidden.
Holding the head before him with both
hands, he began to walk toward the
river, edging all the while little to-
ward the crowd as if meaning to get
nearer before he threw. He reached the
river and stood there.
His next move made every savage
who watched him gasp because of its
very uneXpectedneSs. He held the
head in both hands, threw it far out
into the river and stood to watch it
sink. Then, without visible emotion Of
any kind, he walked back stolidly to
face YaSmini at the bridge end, with
shoulders a little more stubborn now
than they ought to be, and chin shade
too high. for there never was a man
who could act quite perfectly.

Late Judge Eakin

AT 1880 this morning memorial serv-
ives were held in tho supreme court
chambers for the late Robert Eakin
recently a member of the court. The
services were under the auspices of the
Portland Bar Association, and large
delegation from that city was present
The Salem bar was well represented,
and attorneys from all parts of the
state were here to pay the tribute Of
respect to the dead jurist
Resolutions of respect were presented
by Thos. A. Crawford of LaGrande, who
made an eloquent but brief talk before
moving their adoption. The motion to
adopt was seconded by Charles f.
Cochrane of Portland, in words of high
est praise. Judge Slater and others
made brief addresses and on behalf of
the court Chief Justice Mcbride made
the response. 1t was an eloquent trib-
ute to the jurist so recently one Of
them and it was with deep feeling that
the chief justice recalled some of the
very many splendid traits of character
that endeared him to each and every
member of the beNch. Among those
present were Senators Chamberlain and
McNary.

Pet Norman Showed
Real Class Last Night
By H. G. Hamilton,


Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
New York, Nov. Ga little more
credit than had been anticipated be-
longs to Pete Herman world S bantam
weight champion, today. The success
sor to Kid Williams and Johnny Coulon
has been picked out for a long time as
pretty lucky youth to hold. the
worlds championship and it has been
suspected by many a fight follower
that the first good man TO meet Her
man would be worlds champion after
their bout.
Any man, however, who can take
frankie Burns to 20-round cleaning
and do it with the finesse that marked
New Orleans, is something of a fist
finger Pete Herman, world g bantam
weight champion, United States army
soldier, is just that, for accounts of the
battle declare Herman pasted the vet
eran Jersey star from the sponge to
the arc lights over the ring.
Burns is an old timer, schooled in all
the tricks of the trade, but Herman,
youngster, out-generaled his opponent.
Burns was at the crest of his game
comeback when he met Herman. There
is little doubt that he IS one of the
best bantams in the country, so there
ism t a chance to rob the little New
Orleans star Of credit for his victory.
Herman had promised to join the
army Immediately after this bout, so,
before this day has passed, he prob
ably will have become one Of the
kaiser's millions of opponents.

THERMOMETER WILL
KEEP PUDLICPOSTFD
ON HOSPITAL DRIVE
Red Paint VIII Mark Mercury
As Campaign For Funds
Proceeds

A mammoth thermometer erected at
the front of Hospital campaign head
quarters this morning, will keep the
public informed as to the progress or
the campaign in dollars and cents.
Red paint will represent the mercury
in the thermometer and win be added
as the campaign warns up. AS an ad-
difional indicator a miniature junior
nurse in uniform points with pride to
the result. Underneath the thermome-
ter a fire burns which is marked
The fire of Salem IS enthusiasm. 1"
Other slogans appearing on the base
are The power of Salem Is enterprise" "
and "The warmth of Salem s heart. !"
Such a combination it is felt ought to
raise any thermometer to the sizzling
point.
An additional indicator will be found
in the windows of the Opera House
Pharmacy at High and Court streets,
where the results of the labor of the
campaign workers may also be observed
from day to day.
Headquarters was the scene of anima-
tion this morning at nine thirty when
the workers gathered to receive final
instructions and orders, and head into
the big task before them. Good ma
tured rivalry between the various teams
and the two divisions is evidently to
be the order of the week, and there
was much "joshing" going the rounds,
as to the various liabilities of teams
and members. AS incentive to big eff
forts, the donations received by the ex-
eeutive committee from day to day will
be added to those of the divisions, rs
per cent to the winning crew, and the
remainder to the losers.
