Special Dispatch TO The Tribune
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. Civilian r.
Tilden, tennis champion Of the world,
will lose portion Of the middle finger
Of his right hand as result Of blood
poisoning followed cut suffered three
weeks ago.
DR.. William B. swartley, surgeon at
the Germantown Hospital, where TIL
den has been for two weeks, said this
afternoon 1t was impossible to save
the finger down to the first joint He
hoped the member would heal success
fully.
The tip and nail of the finger already
have been removed, but the other por-
tion of the first joint is gangreneus.
for the infection to pass the first joint
not be stiff if it heals without further
complication. He added he did not
think the injury would interfere with
Tildens game.
Should it reduce Tilden's playing
ability, however, it will stop career
on the courts which was at it's very
peak at the time of the accident at
Bridgeton, October IA, which resulted
in his disablement.
Tilden's statement to the effect that
he will defend his championship next
year, and his expressed confidence in
his ability to continue playing tourna
ment tennis, should not be taken too
seriously at this time, tennis experts
here say, even though his attitude in
dicates the champions gameness in
the face of misfortune.
If Tilden loses the middle finger of
his right hand, or half Of it, it will
place him under q tremendous, per-
haps an impossible, handicap, tennis
experts say. In order to understand
this, it is only necessary to grasp
racket handle with the regulation
grip first and then attempt the same
thing with the middle finger not en-
ployed. At once the inability to Sc
cure firm grip on the handle will
be noticed, and this is more noticeable

REFUSE OF WOOD

SEWERS OF CITY

Walt S. Low, street commission
9r, is having his annual trouble
With sewers, all due to the fact
that people who have had their
wood piled in the street, fail to re-
move rubbish after the wood has
.jeen stored away.
Many people have the idea that
it is the duty of the city to re-
move sawdust and trash after
wood has been sawed and stored, ("
Mr.. Low said. ''The fact is, it is
,,he duty of owners of the woodpilc
to remove every bit of trash and
especially sawdust."
1t is especially sawdust that
causes expense to the city and ne
;essitates the digging up of sew
ers, he said. The sawdust along
with small sticks and bark left
from the wood pile is swept into
the sewers with the first rain and
then they are clogged, causing ex-
ira expense to the city.

COnstnncy OfG0dS
Gifts Oft Forgotten
Asserts Dr.. POzOelI

Taking for his subject, "The Di-
vine Visitation" DR.. G. e. Powell,
who delivered the union Thanks
giving services this morning, at
the First Christian church, de-
clared that 1t is God who supplies
our daily wants, no less truly than
through his Son, He supplied the
wants Of the hungry multitude in
the wilderness In the days OF His
flesh.
1T is hot only in what we are
accustomed to call miracles that
God works alone" DR., Powell said.
THE whole course of nature is one
miracle. In the golden corn, IN
the ripened fruit, in the ever faith
full recurrence of the seasons. we
have witness of the same power,
only differently applied, that null
tiplied the loaves and fishes"
Leads to Forgetfulness.
Referring TO the many blessings
that had been bestowed upon the
people Of this country, DR.. Powell
said: Let us beware that the
very constancy of Gods gifts does
not lead us to forgetfulness. 1t is
only by an effort Of the will that
we pause to realize that every
hour has its blessings, and that
pledges of the divine visitation
are all about us.
In conclusion DR.. Powell said
"Let us this day offer unto Him
our sacrifice Of praise and thanks
giving. Our harvests have been
bountiful. Beyond any people on
earth we have reason to be thank
full. No cry OF want is heard
throughout our land. God has
visited us in innumerable ways.
He has given us bread enough
and to spare Shall We not al
ways remember that onto whom
much has been given, from him
much will be required.
DR.. Powell is a member of the
board Of home missions of the
Methodist Episcopal church and
has recently been assigned to take
charge of the social settlement
center Of the Methodist church in
Portland.
The collection taken this morn
ing will be given to the home as
sociated charities.

Salmon, Needs Protect
ion At Source.

The great salmon pack of the
Columbia river. recognized as one
of the leading industries of the
northwest, did not equal in value
this year the pack OF the five fruit
canneries in Salem. The canning
industry of Salem alone has as
sunied such tremendous proper
lions that the value this year Of
the Salem pack as shipped by the
Salem canneries, has placed more
money In circulation than the
famous salmon pack of the Colum-
bialriver
According to authentic statis-
tics, the salmon pack of the Co
lumbia river this year amounted
to 5000 cases, with an average
value of $3.50 case. This would
place the commercial value OF the
salmon pack at $2,697,5OO.
Fish Industry Fostered.
The canned fruit pack of the
five plants In Salem alone this past
season amounted to 677,OOO cases,
A conservative estimate places sal
as the average value of a case.
Based upon these figures, which
are also authentic, the commercial
