SALEM, Jan. S.-The special ses-
sion OF the legislature, called to con-
slider and act upon Governor Olcott s
five points," now has some 19 legis-
lative barbs bristling before it, with
new and additional ones becoming
visible to the naked eye as the days
pass on.
Many of them are tipped with poll
tical poison which, injected into the
legislative circulation, will cause that
body to run a temperature the regis
ter of which no one now may guess
with any chance of certainty. And
these, matters of general legislation
and statewide in their scope and ef-
feet, do not include the unknown
number of local problems which the
various members undoubtedly will
bring to Salem with them in the hope
of being able to slip them into the
hopper and grind them through in
one way Or another.

COST TWO THOUSAND TO
 STOP A NOSE BLEEDING

DENVER, Colo, June 23-- An att tack of nosebleeding cost Morris T.. Strcctcr, millionaire coal mine owner, $2,00O and made necessary the chart ering of special train to carry a Denver specialist to the isolated point in Moffat county, Colorado, where Strec ter was. At the end of the dash over the mountains in the special train the specialist had to ride thirty miles in an automobile over the rough roads of Mount Strceter.
 When Strccter first began to lose blood, and after first aid measures had failed to check the flow, an un- successful effort was made to secure an airplanc to carry the specialist the 300 miles from Denver to Streetcr.
 Despite the fact that the run was made over tracks weakened by recent storms, rccord-breaking time was made.
 The train alone cost Mir. Streeter S1 TOO. including war tax, and the physicians fees and other charges brought the total to more than $2,00O. But the bleeding was stopped.
