He explained that the system in its
earlier stages of development is now
used in Hood River which is considered
to have about the most satisfactory
service of all cities of that class in the
west.
"But Hood Rivers plant was one of
the first in the state to ask for an in
crease in rates." interrupted Commits
sioner Corey.
"That is explained" replied Mr..
Babcock. "by the fact that the Hood
River territory is the most difficult to
serve in that the service is to five and
ten-acre farms and not to fifty-foot
lots. While it stands unique for its
service, Hood River could never be an
example of low rates. ="

IOLD MAILMAN BLOCK
 IS PURCHASED BY Y
Building May Be Razed Later to Make Room For
 Dormitory Addition.

The frame building and lot upon which it stands in the rear of the present dormitories of the Y. M. c. A., has been purchased by that insti- tuition and will be added to the pres ent Y. M. c. A. property. The house was the old Hallinan block and was moved about 160 feet to the rear when the present block was erected. It was purchased by J. M. HaHinan.
 The plot of ground which in includ- ed in the sale measurers approximate ly 75 55 feet and serves to square up with the property owned by the Y. M. c. A., prior to the new purchase.
 No immediate plans have been made as to the disposition of the frame structure now standing on the lot, but inasmuch as it is in poor condition it is likely it will be torn down. Rumor says that there is a probability of the Y M. c. A. official building an ad- dition to their dormitories some time in the near future, but it was stated at that institution today that no inn mediate plans are on foot for this pur- pose.

Berti Pays .$1O Fine for Allowing
 Small Boy to Drive-Two Arraign-

 The interpretation placed upon cer- tain motor vehicle statutes by 'lots of people" proved incorrect as Angelo Rerti found when arraigned before Judge G. w. Klett this morning on a charge of allowing a 14 year old boy to operate his car. Many of his friends had told him, the accused said. that the boy might drive pro- vided a licensed operator was with him. Policeman Clarence Lamphere arrested Berti yesterday morning on Main street when he saw the 14 year old boy operating the car. A fine of s10 and costs, amounting to $17.50, was imposed.
 John Carbo of Kensington, was charged with parking for more than 40 minutes in a restricted part of Main street.

Sister of Accused Expresses
 This Opinion as Trial Resumes X EXPERIMENTAL" CHILD
Accused Seems More Cheerful and Testimony More Favorable to Herself Is Heara-Lawyers Attack Poison Charge Made by Prosecution.

Cleveland, O., July 12.-The state s attempted to kill her husband, Daniel F. kaber, by poisoning was attacked by the defense today as an attempt to dis credit the states case.
 The first witness called by the de- fense today was Roya A. Daniels, the undertaken who prepared MT. Kaber' s body for burial. He told of the autopsy conducted at the county morgue, at which all the internal organs were re- moved He asserted that he used a hardening compound on the organs, using two-thirds of a five pound box. He said he did not know the contents of the powder. Mrs. kaber appeared more cheerful today as testimony more favorable to her was being presented. She came into court without her face covered by handkerchief.
 Insanity, Is Claim.
 That Mrs. kaber was insane at the time her husband was murdered was the opinion expressed by her sister, Mrs. H. A. McGinnis. She declared that Mrs. Kaber always was very 'tempermental' and at school would slap OCuGr CIl1OISu dIlQ pun LdCl1 AAdlA At home she said Mrs. sKaber's eyes at times had wild look
 Through William Oehlestrom, a masseur, the defense attempted to show that he had treated Mrs. Kaber for nervousness several years ago but the court would not admit the testi- mony. Mrs. kaber rested her head on the back of a chair and cried while her sister was testifying.

 Attorney Gen. Frank E. Healy said there was nothing obligatory on the state to pay the sum of three hundred thousand dollars.
 Deputy Treasurer Thomas H. Judd who represented Treasurer G. Harold Gilpatric until the latter arrived, said there was absolutely no money in the civil list fund to pay the ap- appropriation asked for by the depart ment of education.
 It was finally decided to grant the appropriation on the understanding that the money should not be paid out until August. Attorney Gen. Healy remarked that he understood that Treasurer Gilpatric and Com missioner Meredith had a conference at which it was agreed the three hundred thousand dAahr should not be payable until the latter part ot July

SALARIES ARE REDUCED
Office Force at Stanley Works lAf- fected-Cut Will Not Exceed 20 Per Cent.


 The salaries of the employees of the office force of the Stanley Works have been reduced. This statement was made this afternoon by c. F. Bennett, vice-president of the plant. There was no definite cut made throughout the entire force and MT. Bennett stated that the decreases. were so arranged that they would not exceed 20 per cent. The new rate of salaries went into ef- feet the first day of this month.
 The present force in the local office is not as badly depleted, because of present business Impressions, as is the case in other offices. There is still some considerable volume of business detail to be cared for and it is esti- mated that the force now employed is equal to S5 per cent. of the highest mark reached during the inflated period of prosperity.
 Business looks favorable at the pres ent time, the official stated, and reports of travelling men and the market itself would incline to the belief that there is much to be optimistic about in the line of wholesale building hardware.
