MAN, 72, SEEKS DIVORCE Wife and Children Charged With Conspiracy in Complaint. Married more than 42 years ago, Wil liam H. Dickson, 72 years old, yester day filed suit for divorce from Agnes A. Dickson on grounds of cruel and in human treatment and asks the court for suit money and $25 monthly ali mony and the return of a 72-acre ranch, which he charged he deeded to her nine years ago under false representations. Dickson charges that he was driven from his home by his wife and chil dren,, who have had him examined for Insanity, he says, lif an effort to get rid of him, and sent him to the poor farm as a pauper. James H. Dickson and Daisy A. Dickson, son and daughter, are charged in the complaint with con spiring with their mother to drive him from his home. i Mr. and Mrs. Dickson were married in New York City in September, 1871. and moved to Oregon six years later. The deed to the land, he says, he thought was security for the payment of $1000 which he needed to buy implements for ta farm. . ' . , Chairman of Union Pacific Director' ate Will Visit Cross-State Exten sion "Work in Central Ore gon if Time Permits. Judge R. S. Lovett, chairman of the boards of directors of the Union Pa clfic Oregon Short Line and O.-W. R. & N, with other members of his party. will arrive in Portland over the South ern Pacific tomorrow morning. J. D. Farrell, president of the O.-W. RAN. Company, received a message from Judge Lovett yesterday notifying him that he would leave San Francisco last night. Accompanying Judge Lovett Is B. L. Wlnchcll, the newly appointed director of traffic of the Union Pacific system. They plan to devote a week to an In spection of all the Union Pacific system lines which means the O.-W. R. & N. lines In the Northwest. Mr. Farrell, J. P. O'Brien, general manager; R. B. Miller, traffic manager, and other Port land officials will accompany them over the territory. This will be Mr. Wlnchell's first visit to Portland since assuming his new duties and Judge Lovett's first In more than a year. Mr. Wlnchell formerly was president of the Frisco system. Executive Consolidation Denied. In connection with Judge Lovett's approaching visit has arisen the rumor that the Union Pacific, Oregon Short Line and O.-W.' R. & N. Company are to be combined under common execu tive direction, but Mr. Farrell yester day denied that such a plan is even contemplated. "Conditions always will demand that a separate organization shall exist for the lines on the Coast." said Mr. Farrell yesterday. "I don't think any consoli dation is contemplated at this time nor at any future time. The property out here always will be operated sepa rately. "Our business here is of a nature altogether different from that of which Omaha is the center. "Judge Lovett is coming for his regu lar inspection trip. He has not been here for a long time, and he likes to keep in close touch with the property under his Jurisdiction." A. L. Mohler, president of the Union Pacific, who arrived in Portland Tues day, has gone duck-shooting for a few days. He will return to meet Judge Lovett and party here. It is unlikely that he will accompany them 'over the lines in the Northwest. Central Oreson la Goal. If time permits the Lovett party will go into Central Oregon to view the work now being done on the cross- state extension out of Vale. This roaa eventually is expected to connect with the Southern Pacific at Odeil ana witn the Deschutes line at Bend, thus pro vidlng a short cut tor traffic moving out of the Willamette Valley and Port land to the East. Mr. Farrell returned yesterday from a trip to Seattle, Tacoma and Spokane. At the latter place he inspected the work being done on the new terminals. "So far as business in this territory is concerned," he said, "both September and October have shown" improvements over the corresponding months of last year. "While the situation in the country generally promises to improve within a srort time, I think the improvement in the Northwest already is under way."

With the adoption yesterday by the City Commission of the 1913 code of the National Electrical Underwriters as the code for electric work in Fort- land, a number of Important changes will be brought about In the methods of installing electric wiring, fixtures and apparatus. The change will bring to an end conflicts between the city electrical ordinance of the present and the underwriters' code. It is said by Electrical Inspector Dunlap that the new arrangement will make the wiring restrictions less stringent than they are at present, the city code heretofore having made exactions in wiring methods not pro vided in the underwriters' code. Elec tricians faced numerous difficulties in trying to conform to both codes. Among other changes In the meth ods will be the permitting of IS in candescent lamps on a single circuit, instead of 12, as provided in the past. Changes are made In the uses of rubber-covered wire and other forms of fittings for electrical work. WOMAN MAY ESCAPE TAX Verbal Agreement Made by Old Council Probably Will Be Honored. A verbal agreement entered into be tween members of the old City Council and Mrs. Mary Towey providing that the city should not impose any more assessments against her property, near the entrance to Arlington Heights and Macleay Park, probably will be recog nized by the present City Commission and will result in Mrs. Towey being relieved of about J800 for street im provements. The property of Mrs. Towey lies be tween two streets and is now oonata to the extent of $1200 for Improve ments, the greater part of which were said to be a detriment to ner property. In improving Washington street re cently another assessment burden was laid upon Mrs. Towey, despite the fact that the old City Council had agreed that she would not be assessed any more. The Commission yesterday in considering the case decided that if it can be shown that the agreement was made, the present administration will Postum vs. Coffee Made of Wheat TENDS TO ' Rosy Complexion Good Digestion Good Liver Good Heart Peaceful Nerves Good Flavour No Drug Containing a Drug TENDS TO Sallow Complexion Stomach Troubles Bad Liver Heart Palpitation Shattered Nerves Good Flavour Caffeine, a Drug Weakness from Drugging Energy Try each and judge for yourself.
