Stops Runaway.-But for the nerve of Earl Buxton, 801 Third street, serious con sequences might have followed the run ning away of a heavy team of horses be longing; to R. Pellman, of Beaverton, early yesterday afternoon. The team was If ft standing In front of the Barnes Market on Third street and becoming: frightened dashed south on Third street. Several persons were nearly run down by the galloping: horses and the swerving wagon. At Taylor street Buxton ran out and failing to stop the team from In front, caught hold the endgate of the wagon and swung inside. Climbing to the seat he got the reins and soon had the horses under control. Fellman, running after his horses, was quickly on the stene. He was promptly arrested on a charge of leaving the team untied. On leaving bail for his appearance in court today, he was released. Stamp Sales Increase. "The sale of stamps at the Portland Postofftce for the month of May will show an increase of 15 per cent over the sales for the cor responding month a year ago," said Post master J. W. Minto, yesterday. "Our figures show that at the close of business last Saturday the receipts from stamp sales were $3500 in excess of the sales for the corresponding period in 1907. The surprising part of the situation is that the great increase originates almost ex clusively at the stamp window, where the sales range from cents to $1. These figures unmistakably prove a gradual and continuing growth in population." The stamp sales for April exceeded those of the same month last year by 19.S per cent. Bids Asked for Lumber. Bids bava been asked, through the 'Portland Cham ber of Commerce, by the Isthmian Canal Commission, of Oregon lumber manufac turers for 1,000,000 feet of Douglas fir for use in the canal zone. Portland sawmill men will submit bids, which must be filed at Washington not later than June 15. Smaller lots of lumber are often asked for by the Canal Commission but Portland mills do not care to submit bids for there is no regular steamer line be tween Portland and the Isthmus ports and it would hardly pay to charter a steamer for a small shipment. The 1,000, 000 feet just asked for will make only a small cargo. Indian War Veterans' Bat. Indian War Veterans day, June 10, will be cele brated at Woodman hall.

An ar rest was made last night which the police believe wilt lead to the apprehension of the two burglars who committed the day light robbery on Tuesday afternoon at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Cullen, 453 Morrison street and made their escape with $500 worth of jewelry and clothing. About 7 o'clock last night a police officer arrested a well-dressed young man giving the name of Michael McMurray who was attempting to sell I some of the clothing stolen from this nuuse in . ecuiia-nana store near nira and Burnside streets. McMurray says he is only 19 years of age. He denied all knowledge of the crime and contended that he had received the clothes from another young man who had given them to him to sell with the understanding that McMurray should keep all over $5 he might get in the sale. The name and ad dress of the other man were supplied the police and -an officer detailed to watch his lodgings. Notwithstanding the story told by McMurray, the police are of the opinion that he may be one of the two burglars and will not discard this idea entirely until they have investigated his story. He answers the description given the police by the domestic employed in the house next door to the Cullen resi dence who saw the men leave with the loot in their possession. The prisoner has been in the city but four days. He says that he came here from San Francisco looking for work. W. C. T. U. Musical. A musical was given at Central W. C. T.

This recommendation will be made for the reason it is considered that property on both sides of the avenue will be directly benefitted, and it will also make the burden less for the abutting property. In Center Addition a meeting of property-owners was held yesterday to ask that the assessment territory for Villa avenue west from West avenue be fixed at 1000 feet on each side, for the cost of the widening of that portion of the street.

Back Comb OC Have Those Anti-Saloon Canvassers Seen You Yet? A story la told of a lusty young: fel low, crossing his father's farm with a pitchfork on his shoulder, when he was attacked by a vicious bull. The young man stood his ground, using the pitchfork deftly on the bull's face and eyes. Soon the astonished brute began to bellow with pain. "Bellow' said the six-footer, "but I should like to know who forced this fight." Who Invoked the pending vote in certain precincts on the Cast Side for prohibiting the saloon? The saloon keepers themselves did it. They filed the petition for the vote to be taken next Monday, and now wish they hadn't. The East Side belongs to the people, and not to the saloons. The saloons are going to move. A man-to-man canvass the last ten days In those precincts shows, of three thousand men interviewed, four huijdred are out and out for the saloon, three hundred non-committal, with the rest of the three thousand going to vote "dry." "Won't they colonize those precincts and swear in a gang, like they did in SeUwood?" Well, hardly. A camera will be n.t each polling place and. each man photographed who swears his vote in, with each man who swears for him, and If anything goes wrong, something will bo doing.
