R.R. In Paris To
Be Electrified
PARIS, Aug. ZO. Electrification
of the Paris suburban railroad ser
vice, planned In 1910 and Interrupt
ed by the war. Is becoming a fact
on the atate lines and the program
Is expected to be completed in two
years. Electric power stations have
been erected at several points and
wires have been strung on a con
siderable part of the lines, but the
electric locomotives and other
equipment are not yet ready. The
nearby stations, at first, will (be
served by the electric trains and
the more distant points by the
present steam system. The electri
fication is counted upon to relieve
the bad congestion on all suburban
lines.
Man's Home Is
"His Own Castle"
SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 19. Rob
ert C. Saunders, United States attor
ney, announced this morning that he
had instructed federal prohibition
agenta to make no further searches
of private residences for liquor un
less thay had absolute proof that un
lawful sales were being made.
Home brew for consumption nt
family and friends is safe from fed
eral intervention on a search war
rant. . Home-made beer and wines
are exempt as well as any imported
stocks. Intended for strictly social
purposes, insofar as a search war
rant kpplles. Unlawful possession of
liquor, the prosecutor said this morn-:
lng. may be met with prosecution,
but the home where It Is kopt Is in
violable from search. From the in
structions issued to the federal pro
hibition squad. It is understood ac
cording to federal officials that no
.apodal effort will be made to locate
stocks of exhlllaratlng beverages, un
less their use is flagrant and offen
sive. . .
The instructions issued, he said,
are based on the fourth and fifth
amendments to the federal-fonstlto-tion.
especially the fourth amend
ment, which makes a "man's home
his castle," and on section 25 of title
II of the Volstead act. which reads
as follows: ...
"No search warrant shall issue to
search any private dwelling occupied
as such unless It is being used for
the unlawful sale of intoxicating
liquors."
The new Instructions do not apply,
Mr. Saunders said, to lodging houses,
hotels and rooms over stores where
the transient public resides. The rul
ing is to apply to the home-owner
and the permanent resident citizen
who has a family and is maintaining
a household.
STREET CLEANING MATTER.
In regard to keeping the city
streets clean, property owners can
do valuable co-operation by taking
up the sweepings from their side
walks Instead of shunting same into
the gutters. It should also be kept
i. that nt this season of the
year the street cleaning force Is de
voting as much time as is available
in mnVlTir renal rs In Ihe pavements.
The "hot dope" cannot be put on
in mat weather, so this work Is be
ing taken care of now. many "-
vellers have remarked upon the
neatness of Roseburg's streets and
thia T-oniitntlnn must be maintained.
Rvervone can help a little by not
throwing rubbish or waste paper in
the streets or gutters.

HAVEPLANE CO.
Prominent Business Men Met
Last Evening To Discuss
Local Proposition ..
AIRPLANE MAN IS HERE
Many Local Resident Are interest
ed in Having a Company in
This City, .Several Planes
May Ho Purchased.
A number of prominent cltltens
or this city have been contemplat
ing for some time, the proposition
obr forming an airlane stock com
pany for commercial purposes. Capt.
F. 8. McClurg, representing the De
Havlland Ko. 6 Agency of Portland,
was In Roseburg yesterday to assist
In the formation of such a company.
A meeting was held last evening
at the Uinpqua hotel, where Capt.
McClurg explained the advantages
of such a company and the neces
sary steps to take In Its formation.
Without a suitable field at Rose
burg and no one to look after this
new, but rapidly Increasing busi
ness, this city Is loosing the ad
vantages it gained last year, as air
ships traveling north and south
through Oregon, pass Roseburg up
on account of having no Improved
field. Roseburg Is advantageously
located for ships to stop between
San Francisco and Portland, Red
ding, California, Is the other stop
ping point, only two stops being
necessary. Cat. McClurg slates tnat
this company la very anxious that
a permanent field be established
here, other airplane companies are
anxious that this be done. If the
oronosltlon goes through as plan
ned. two new modern ships will be
established here, to handle the
business In Southern Oregon. At
least one shin will be operated on
schedule time, between points north
and south, mall contracts will be
socured. a passongor and fast ex-
rnas business . will be developed
thus saving much valuable time to
busy business men.
Some of the men who are inter
ested in this proposition, are S. C.
Bartrum, Roy Bellows, A. C. Mar
stors. D. B. Bubar, Jack Polton, J.
V. Porklns and Leo Devaney.

Roseburg Officers Will Grab
Every Violator of The City
Ordinance in Future
WANT MOTORCYCLE COP
If One Can Be Secured Arrests Will
Be Miitle of Those Going 10 or
17 MUes Per Hons
Better Watch Out.
"For some time past we have been
trying to secure the- services of a
motorcycle speed cop, but lt seems
almost Impossible to get one," said
Chief of Police Dave Shambrook In
commenting on the local situation.
"Thero is too much speeding in
Roseburg. ' It's very difficult for ono
man to handle tho situation,' but
we'll do it."
I' - Rosebtnrg olloeuW!-s are going
OHt and going out strong to got
violators of the traffic ordinance of
this city and it would be well tor all
motorists to see that your muffler
muffles and that your light Is not
hidden behind bushels or anything
else. Even though It has been de
clared by not a few that it takes a
speed of more than 15 miles per
hour to creep over the grades In
some parts of the city, the officers
advise that you let your foot rest
rather lightly on the accelerator.
Roseburg's trafflo violators are
regularly paying the salaries of the
local police officers, and with this
renewed spurt In the direction of
"more arrests." It appears that the
city coffers will soon be bulging with
"tokens of respect" contributed by
those who love to "hit the high
places" within the city limits.
In the event a motorcycle speed
cop is secured lt la thought that
many more arrests can be made. It
Is a well known fact that the law
....If..lna 1 C rt-i Una tA hntir ta hfilnt"
violated dally, but the officers have I
no way of proving this should the
nedr ho hroucht before the city ,
reenriter. Officer Shambrook states ,
that no one Is "pinched" at present
unless the speed of his car Is faster
than 20 miles per. It Is an easy mat
ter for such speed to he determined.
a nmtnreveia eon could make arrests
at 16 or 17 miles per hour and such j
action would undoubtedly have
tendency to "slow things up a bit."
At any rate, the officers have is
sued this warning and It behooves
everyone from the owner of a flivver
to a Rolls-Royce, to beware and be
ou the alert at all times.

Since Start of War
UNDER FOREIGN COLORS
Shipping Companies Of All The
Principal Nations Have Set I'p
Offices at City of Hamburg.
Business Ticking Up.
(Br Assoolated Press).
HAMBURG, Aug. 20. In one day
last week 2 steamers passed Out- 1
haven on the way to Hamburg or
to enter the Kiel Canal. This was
the largest number of ships to come
into the Elbe in 24 hours since the
early days of the war, and the event
waa hailed with intense satisfaction
hore as a sign of better times. Five
years ago lt was a dull day, when
only a score of vessels arrived. The
Hamburg-American line alone usually
had from 25 to 30 big ships in port
and the harbor was so crowded with
shipping that tho problem df dock
ing often became acute.
In those dayi fow flags other than
those of the Gorman companies
were seen in the harbor. Today
Hamburg Is literally under foreign
colors. Shipping companies of all
the ftrlnclpal nations have set up
offices here and the formerly pow
erful German lines, having lost their
h os. are acting now only as sgents.
American, British, Japanese, French,
Italian, Spanish, Dutch and llrazil

tisements In the . shipping papers. .

nro so few that ono must search
for them.
Thero Is some life again in the -
harbor, but the ships are nearly alt
foreign. Ono passes long rows of
splendidly equipped docks and ware
houses, once a hive of industry hut
now empty and still. And in the
absence of the many ships that used
to make Hamburg a thriving com-,
merclal center, trade has died away
and the great market places on the
waterfront lire practically desorted.
Before tho war Hamburg had be
coe one cf Eurooe'a chleT coffee

that, staple find their way here.
While Hamburg was losing Its
glory as a port, death was taking
