Oregon Man Win It.
The interstate oratorical contest be.
tween representatives of the educational
institutions in Idaho, Washington and
Oregon took place Saturday evening in
the Taylor street First M. E. church.
Fred Fisk, of the university of Oregon,
won the decision, receiving the vote of
two of three judges, while G. F. John
son, of the Puget Sound nnivereity, rep
resenting the state of Washington, re
ceived one vote. J. A. Coffey, the third
contestant, coming from the university
. of Idaho, and representing that state,
was credited with having the finest
composition and the most original and
clear-cut tboughte, but he failed on the
point of delivery. In palliation for this
- defect it must be said that there is no
elocutionist in the institution where Mr.
Coffey is studying.
The contest is of widespread interest
throughout the Northwest,, as it is the
first of its character yet held in Port-
land. State competitions have been en
tered into, but before last year the local
victors of the states were not brought
face to face on the wider arena. An as
sociation is being perfected, however,
which has for its purpose an. interstate
contest each year.
The judges selected for the occasion
. were Judge Galloway of Oregon City;
Rev. Charles Edward Locke and Charles
J. Schnabel of Portland. The points
for consideration were originality, subject-matter,
manner of treatment and
delivery. No restrictions were placed as
to the consideration of either, but the
general result was of course affected by
them in certain proportions. ' -

Boggs, the man who hired a team at
Rufus a week or so ago from Bate Clark
and sold it, and who afterwards per
suaded the widow Newsome to gather
her family around her and skip with
him, is ornamenting the interior of the
Wasco county jail this morning, with a
fair chance of soon having larger and
more permanent quarters in the peni
tentiary, , . ;
- When he left here on the boat, a tele
gram was sept to the officers at Port
land, but in some manner he eluded
tbem, and while they were watching the
Southern Pacific trains, Boggs, the
widow and family took the Northern Pa
cific for Seattle, and from ttiat port the
boat for the haven of Victoria.
Sheriff Driver traced him np and de
termined to have him,, so early this
week he went to Victoria. There before
an august justice of the peace he told of
Boggs sinning, and was promptly in
formed that horse stealing was not an
extraditable offense. Driver knew this
but was out with a set to see what kind
of fish be could catch. To a gentle in
sinuation that the law might be bent
little, the Britisher returned a chilling
frost, with the assertion that "the law
was - never bent in her majesty's do
minions." Then Tom took another tack
and sent parties to Boggs to hire him to
go over to Port Townsend to assist in
bringing over sheep. Boggs hadn't lost
any sheep on the United States side of
the line. However, after much manipc
lation our sheriff in some manner per
suaded him to go on the boat and de
tained him until it pulled out. At any
rate, whatever the process was, be ar
rived here this morning in charge of the
sheriff and will have his trial nex
week
The widow Newsome and her fou
children were left in Victoria. For her
it was a sad ending of a brevet honey
mpon, sweet spell that was too beautiful
to last, and that lias probably ended for
tver.

Mr.
Blrthaay Greeting-.
Yesterday being the tbfrd birthday of
Aileen Kelley, several of her small
friends were invited to her home to share
with her the good things of the occasion
The guests came at 4 o'clock and were
cordially received by their charming
little hostess. An hour was happily
spent with games and toys, when the
hungry little folks thoroughly enjoyed
the luncheon, so daintily served. Little
Aileen was the recipient of several pretty
gifts. She seemed to ' feel the, dignity
of approaching years, as she serious v
assured every one that she was "five."
At six o'clock the sleepy, bat happy
little people said good night, with many
wishes that every ' day in the life of
their hostess might be as bright and
joyous as the one just passed. Those
present beside the hostess were Geral
dine, Gilbert and "Baby" Kelley,

Mr. Pague's report yesterday shows a
rapid rise in the rivers above, up to Fri
day morning. At Northport the Colum
bia rose 2.3, at Wenatchee .9, at Lewis-,
ton .7 and at . Weiser .3. The report
further says : ' The rivers all have a less
rise this morning, except at Northport,
where the effects of the warm weather
of Wednesday are already shown. The
cool weather occurred twenty-four hours
before it was expected, hence the rise by
Wednesday next will not be as much as
was looked for.
The river here at 7 o'clock was at 41.5,
a rise of .8 since yesterday morning.
From the above data it is probable the
45-foot mark will -be reached here by
Wednesday, which will be ' about the
limit for this year.
Levy Finds the Ballet Inside Hit
Sknll, But Loses His Hair.
William Levy, of Eau Claire, Wis.,
who recently had an X ray examina
tion of his skull made by Prof. Fred S,
Jones at the physical laboratory of the
Minnesota State university had an ex
per ie nee in consequence not general
ly supposed to accompany ithat process,
Levy was shot in the head about ten
years ago by an escaping- b,ank default
er. The bullet lias been somewnere in
bis head ever since, and in July he made
up his mind to have it located. Accord
ingly he came up and sat from eight
o'clock in the morning till ten at night
for a Roentgen ray picture of his head,
The. bullet had passed into his skull
just above the left ear, going toward the
back of the head. .
After taking a couple of negatives
they finally found about where the bul
let was located. The doctors wrapped
lis head up in wires which were den
Bitelv located. A picture was takeu
through the skull firom the front toward
the back of the head, the tube from
which the rays radiated being for this
purpose placed inside his mouth. The
picture thus secured showed the bullet
very distinctly to be lying at the
junction of two of the wires which
crossed right under the occipital bone.
It indicated also that the bullet had
uta-uck the back of the skull and turned
forward again, for the point of the bul
let, being further from the plate
showed dimrner on the negative. These
exposures had taken up nearly the
whole day, but the patient felt no bad
effects at the time. He had beer.
warned that the experiment might
cause him the loss of his hair, but that
did not deter him from taking the risk.
A very -strong current, ' about 100,000
volts, had been passed through the
tube in making the exposures.
The next day Mr. Levy began to no
tice a peculiar effect on his skin
wherever it had been exposed to the
rays, and the hair on the right side of
his head, which had been near the wire,
began to fall out. In a few days the
right sideof his head Was perfectly bald,
his right ear had swollen to twice its
natural size and presented the same
appearance as if very badly frozen.
Sores were visible on. his head, his
mouth and throat were blistered so that
he could not eait solid food for three
weeks, and his lips were swollen,
cracked and bleeding. In fact, the
long exposure to the X rays, while giv
ing him' no pain at the time, seemed to
. have produced very similar effects to
a very severe burn. ' ;
Mr. Levy has recovered from the ef
fects of his bums, but he still has half
a bald head. He is a plucky man, about
30 years of age, and intends to have the
investigation carried further and the
ballet removed. He has already writ
ten to Prof. Jones asking for another
sitting. It is necessary now to have a
negative showing just how far below
the surface the bullet is located before
the doctors decide whether the opera
tion can, be safely performed, St, Paul
