Albert I.amh Killed
In Action In France

(Capital Journal Special Service.)
Donald. Ore. Dec fS.--One of oul
Donald boys makes the supreme sacl
flee in France. The community wa
grievcd and shocked when a telegram
came to Mayor and Mrs. Geo Lamb or
Saturday, that their son Albert, hat
been killed in action October 7. Nc
further word has been received so far
but letter had been received dated
October 9, and we are hoping there has
been an error made and good news may
yet come to relieve the stricken family
Mr.. Lamb wired the authorities al
Washington to look into the matter
and report at once. The sympathy Of
che whole community goes out to then
in their anxiety and suspense.
Mr.. j. M. Spencer of the Portland
Milling company, was calling upon the

In looking over the list of illiterates
in Oregon, as published this week, we
can but wonder at it. When the people
are paying out money for taxes to keep
good schools running it seems that ~olae
one must be negligent in their duty if
Oregon has laws as Washington and
Idaho have, but in every community as
well as Donald, no doubt, there arc
laws not being enforced and cndren
arc growing up in ignorance TO become
inmates in some Of the state institu-
tions later, in all probability.
The stockholders Of the Donald Nnr-
sery had late meeting and passed re-
solutions of dissolution. Those attend

Paris.-During an impromptu trip
through the Place de la Concorde Gen.
John J. Pershing received plaudits that
perhaps never before have Heen
equaled in the history of the city. 1t
was also perhaps one of the most dan
gerous half hours he ever experienced,
as fully fifty thousand wildly cheering
Parisians circled about his Car and
fully half million comprised. the
great mob that crammed the Place
de la Concorde and was still flowing
In from all the boulevards.
The general was out for a short
drive and had come up the Rue Rivoli.
His car was proceeding at snails
pace before 1t was recognized by the
frenzied street crowds.
As General Pershing's face, with the
famous smile, showed through the
door, a French girl with the flags Of
half dozen nations twined about her
head screamed, General Pershing!"
The cry was taken up instantly and
passed over the seething multitudes. If
there were any gendarmes about they
were swallowed up In the enormous
mob. In an instant men and women
went mad and screamed his name, ana
all tried to reach the car.
Men picked up women and held them
on their shoulders that they might get
a look at the general. The mob surged
toward the car in another wave.
Shakes Hands Of Children. T.
General Pershing amidst the danger
was enjoying it greatly. Instead of clos
ing the window and Urging the driver
to get out before they were crushed to
death, he let the window down full
length, laughed heartily and thrust his
hand out of the door to shake the hand
Of little French child whose proud
father lifted her above the heads of
the mob.
Children climbed on the tonneau and

tinued laughing and tried to shake as
many hands as could be thrust through
the window.
"Pershing! Pershingl" beloved the
mob, and the name rang from the
Seine to the Rue Royale. up the
Champs Elysees, and through the
Tuileries gardens.
Efforts to Clear Way Fall.
French officers who had been caught
up in the human maelstrom saluted
and then endeavored to have the mob
give way. As If by common impulse
the masses seemed to understand that
the great American general was In
danger, and with craning Of heads
and the screams of women and chill
dren a slight rift was made directly
ahead Of the chr. Then by less than
q snail's pace the car with frantic
snorts edged along, inch by inch.
The cheering was indescribable.
Along the boulevards the name Of Per.
shing was taken up by thousands who
probably did not know that Pershing
was In their midst, and at one moment
1t seemed that all Paris was shouting.
BY this time the inside Of Pershing's
car resembled a nag shop. The chill
dren who were raised over the heads
Of the frantic populace tossed small
flags and flowers through the window
and the grownups tore the insignia
from their coats and tossed It In. Gen
eral Pershing was laughing. hard and
waving his hand back ut the children,
but still the nag and floral offerings
poured In until he was half buried be-
