She was proceeding up the bay and when off Desdemona Sands Just above the black beacon suddenly saw the British steam er St. Nicholas, which bad crossed in tbout midnight, anchored in the chan nel. Collision Xarrowly Avoided. When first seen the British steamer vas so close at hand that a collision tvas narrowly averted. Captain Kld ston threw his wheel hard over and by signalling full speed ahead, succeeded In missing the St. Nicholas by the nar row margin of only 10 feet. However, the headway of the Beaver could not be stopped before she ran so far up on the sands at the North side of the chan nel that her bow is practically high and flry at low water. The Beaver is headed almost directly toward Knappton. but she stands on an even keel and is in no danger. Shortly after the accident the tank Steamer J. A. Chanslor crossed in. She dropped two anchors In the channel, ran a line to the stranded craft and made several attempts to pull her off. In one of them the line broke and in swinging back tore off a portion of the after rail of the Chanslor. as well as doing other damage to the vessel. Tugs Kail to Help. At high tide tonight the river tug Samson and the bar tug Oneonta tried to pull the Beaver into deep water, but the craft could not be moved and the steamer Potter was dispatched to take off the passengers and convey them to their destination in Portland. Captain Kldston and his crew are all on board the Beaver and a barge full Df longshoremen was sent down "to take out several hundred tons of As toria freight, which Is in the bow of the vessel, so that she can be floated on tomorrow morning's tide. The steamer is not injured In any way. as she is resting easy on the bed of sand and no damage to her is expected. The weather was so thick in the lower harbor this morning that the Steamer Klamath, which attempted to cross out about 5 o'clock, was compelled to turn back.

PRACTICAL WORK NEEDED -Superintendent Rigler Lands Man ual Training in Schools. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON. Eugene. Or, July 27. (Special.) Superintendent Rlgler. of Portland schools, spoke high py of the work being done In the man- uar training departments of the public BChools, in his address here this morn ing. Efficiency In the students trained and the practical value of the results being attained were the features he emphasized in their favor. "The students." said he, "learn to work Just as accurately and Just as capably as trained mechanics. The only difference is speed." Superintendent Rigler" claimed- more efficiency for the girls' training depart ments than is found in , the trade schools. "Any of our graduates," said he, "can typewrite 100 words per minute, after a four years' course.- and no high school course should be less than four years. The girls also learn not only to cook palatable food, but to cook it scientifically." According to Superintendent Rigler. however, the manual training course has not justified the prediction of Its founders that it would Increase the at tendance at high schools. "It is true."- he said, "that high school attendance has increased In the last few years, but the increase has been even greater in the academic de partments than In the trade depart ments. The increase is due simply to more prosperous conditions among the people." BALL1NGER DUE TUESDAY HAWLET MAY GO WITH HIM TO KLAMATH FALLS.

R. 21,761, rela tive to the opening of the Klamath Reservation, and the Secretary desires to do the same thing. At present al lotments are being made to the Klamath and Modoc Indians. The bill, which has received favorable action in committee, was prepared by Representative Hawley and R. G. Val entine, Commissioner of Indian Affairs.

When the Senate Irrigation committee visited at Klamath last year there was some dissension among the water users, a number of them desiring to withdraw from the project and se cure water from different sources. As a result the committee made an un favorable report and the project suf fered. At the Intervention of Mr. Haw ley. however.

TREES ARE COUNTED Inspector Quarnberg Making Census of District. -.- PRUNES OF FINE QUALITY San Jose Scale Spreads Rapidly Among Apples and Is Worst in and Xear Vancouver1 Clean . Cultivation Is - Needed. VANCOUVER. Wash.. Julv 27 (Spe cial.) Census of the fruit trees in the district comprising the counties of Clark, Skamania, Klickitat and Cow litz is being taken by A. A. Quarnberg, district horticulture inspector, of "Van couver. His report Is to be kept secret until It Is embodied in the Governor's message to the Legislature at the com ing session. When this Information is made public each county will know how many fruit trees it contains and the kind. Several fruitgrowers, when asked how many trees they had, thinking that it would have something to do with their assessments, were inclined to return fewer than the true number, until convinced that It would cost them nothing to tell the truth, and that the information was to be used for the benefit of all fruitgrowers in the state. Task Is Gigantic Mr. Quarnberg found that nearly every farmer knew how many trees he had on his farm and the variety of each. In many cases the farmer was not at home when the inspector called, so he was compelled to go through the orchards and count them one by one. The task is gigantic and Is not com pleted In Bpeaking of the conditions of the fruit crop, for this season, Mr, Quarn berg said: "I find that there will be at least half a crop of prunes and they will most likely be of excellent quality and larger than the average. The price received this year jvill be about a cent a pound higher than last year. In por tions of Clark County, where most of the prunes are grown, the crop will be almost full, while in other parts very few will be raised this year. "The apple crop in this district is better than it has been for years and I find many acres of good green apples in fine condition. .. Scale Is Spreading. "However, I find that the San Jose scale Is spreading rapidly among the apples. This pest is worse in and around Vancouver than in any other part of the district, as little spraying has been done here. The only cure for this pest is to spray and spray. and then spray some more. I found one elm tree In the county almost eaten u' by the scale. "The prunegrowers of Clark County, I find, take excellent care of prune orchards. They are as aealous for the welfare of their prunes as the apple growers, of Hood River are of their crop. The- orchards are kept in fine condition. "But the apple-growers seem to think they can grow grain, oats usual ly, and hay between the apple trees. This is a mistaken idea and the prac tice should be abolished. The best re sults will not be obtained until the space between the trees is kept clean and Is cultivated." STENSLAND IS ARRESTED SOX OF CHICAGO BAXK-WRECKER IS IX TROUBLE. Spokane Police Seek Him for Ten Days, While He Is In and Out of Station. Seeing Client. - SPOKANE, Wash., July 27. (Special.)

Vogelson, who occupies the same office with Stens land, Instigated the arrest and put the police on his trail again yesterday. After the lawyer emerged from the Pplice Chiefs office with a signed order to see George, the captain suspected he was Stensland. "Is your name Theodore Stensland?" Inquired Captain Miles. "It is," replied Stensland. "Well, you can't see your client this morning. - You're under arrest." The, complaint charges that Stensland has refused to tender payment of $23 which Vogelson declares is due him on a lawsuit. - Stensland asserts that he has offered payment to Vogelson but that It has been refused. The criminal action will be resisted on the grounds that any difference between Stensland and his former partner is of a civil nature.

There in a nutshell you have the first reason why property EAST of the business center is worth less than it is WEST. The Madison bridge is up above most of the river traffic, and even if it were of the same old-fashioned type as the other bridges, would not be re quired to open so frequently. Once it is completed you will find that if your business takes you over to 'the East Side you will heave a little sigh of relief if you can cross on the Madison bridge instead of some other one. Hundreds of others will feel the same way. They will feel that if they must live on the East Side they would like to live on a carline crossing the best bridge. This feeling will cause a demand for homes along the line which will put an ever-increasing premium on the district. MURRAYMEAD is served by the Hawthorne-avenue and Mount Scott carline.
