Concerning Alarm Clocks
Cocks were crowing, n wood
pecker was busy 011 the roof, the
morning was asUr, nnd tlie Loiterer
was niniiul to lie likewise, when in
through the open window
"Hr-r-prip wnke ttpl Get tip!

jump, I say I Hurry 1 Hurry! Hitr
ry! Wliv don't you liur-r-ee-c
the shrill, angry voice of the new
neighbor's alarm clock trailed off
into an incoherent irritated jumble
o! profanity.
Such an awakening I Pity the
man who has so small respect for
himself as to set up this impudent
little upstart to shout and swear at
him every morning, nnd who has
so little c.igerucss tor the new duy
that he must have such a summon
ing to itl The Loiterer fell to won
dering what manner of man this
new neighbor might be.
Perhaps he is the Iiusy Man,
you all know him (and sometimes
he is a woman,) he who seems to
imagine that he holds up in its
place the big round earth, and
makes himseif into a perpetual mo
tion machine in order to maintain
its equilibrium, exactly as n clown
balancing a ball on Ids nose. Von
wish you could hold hl.n idle for n
half liour or so that you might see
that what he is balancing by his
frantic activities is only a bubble
Which will break in the falling uud
that the earth would spin on very
merrily without him. He reminds
one of Chanticleer who thought he
made the sun rise with his crowing.
If you could but steal the Iiusy
Man's alarm clock and let him
sleep some morning until he wak
ens naturally, how surprised he"
would be to find out that the world
had been all but unaware of the ca
tastrophe of his absence I
"There was a man that always
hurried,
There wus n woman that always
worried.
Man died, no time to play, no time
to smile;
The woman tiled, too,- in 11 little
while, "
And the wot Id got along with
out them."
Hut perhaps the new neighbor is
the I. i.y Man. Well, that would
be hotter. The Loj-.y Man. con
fessedly so, doesn't make n bad
neighbor, and the Loiterer confesses
to 11 fellow teellug for hiiu. Hut
may Kate defend us from the I.a.y
M.tti who doesn't know he is lazy;
he who eats too much, exercises too
little nnd thinks not at all, and then
out of his state of general flabbiuess
declares weakly that he never
would wake up without his alarm
clock. He just can't do it.
Can't nonsense, The Loiterer
puts forth the proposition that any
person with body and mind in a
normal condition can wake himself
up at any hour he pleases, Jtut, of
course, the iiersou in question isn't
in a normal condition, being stupe
fied by gluttony and like pamper
ing habits into a state of general
stagnation.
Perhaps, again, the new neigh
bor is a Toil Drugged Man: one of
those who labor every day so be
yond their strength that the night
does not suffice to rest them, and
they must goad themselves, tinre
freshed, to each new day of toil,
That there are men who work thus
through no fault of their own we
must admit, to the shame of all of
us, for we are all in some cjegree
responsible for the fact that .such
conditions of labor exist. Iut there
nre other men who work thus who
could help themselves if they would.
It is possible to dissipate in work
as well as in strong liquors, and
one dissipation will degrade and
kill as inevitably as the other. It
is time we realized that it is no
more a thing to boast of that a man
has worked 20 hours a day than
that he has drunk 20 glasses of
beer Each excess is against the
law of man's being and, therefore,
against the law of God.
But it is safe to say that for ev
ery one man who is jiot toil drug
ged there are ten who are drugged
with excessive and improper food
and impure air. Such people can
uot expect to respond to any natur
al stimulus, and will have to con
tinue to be prodded into a sem
blance of life each morning by their
alarm clocks.
But for the other people who are
endeavoring to live rationally
what's the use? It's like hiring an
awkward foreigner to do your work
when you have an intelligent, will
ing sefvaut in your own house
growing rheumatic with idleness.
The servant? Why the mind, to
be sure. We all are under the im
pression that we have more or less
of one, and no one of us is yet us
ing it to anywhere near its full ca
pacity. This is just one little ser
vice it will render us on short
training wake us up comfortably
and promptly in the morning. Per-

haps it won't succeed the first time
yon set it to the tusk, perhaps it
works awkwardly the second and
keep jrrkiug you awake every hour
or so in its nervousness. But the
third time, or at most the fourth,
the proper result should be obtain
ed and forevef thereafter.
And it is really worth while.
Somebody has said that morning
brings back the heroic nges, but
the morning that starts out with an
alarm clock seems to bring back
the barbarity of the middle nges.
It carries with it suggestions of
chilly houses and cluttered break
fast tables, of women with wrap
pers nnd utikcpt hair and men with
untidy clothing and impatient
words and a general rush and jump
into the unwelcome business of the
day. Morning strikes the keynote1
of the day nnd nobody wants his
whole day to go screeching in E
sharp. After all, the natural thing
to do in the morning is to wake up.
Anybody who is living with n cap
ital L and incidentally living clean
ly and wholesomely will need no
louder call to the new day than his
own eagerness to experience its joys
nnd duties. It is only the man in
whom there is no dawn to meet the
dawn of nature who needs the
alarm clock.'

Packing Plant Option
It is announced today that Eman
uel Mays, the well known capitalist
of this city and formerly connected
with the Union Meat company when
that institution was located at
Troutdalc, has taken options on
several pieces of laud at Maegley
Junction, on the Peninsula.
While those reporting the matter
would not say definitely what the
land was to be used for, it is under
stood that it will be for the opera
tion of independent stockyards.
The location of the proposed
stockyards is likewise said to have
a bearing upon the new packing
plant to be conducted by the James
Goode Packing company.
For some time Louis Burke, for
merly a well known livestock mau
of Portland, has been besieged by
stockinterests of the interior to op
erate independent stockyards here,
but up to this time is said to have
not given the matter much atten
tion. However, today's announce
ment of the Mays deal connects
him with tbe plan to conduct a
stockyard.
The parties in charge of the pro
posed yards are keeping the matter
as quiet as possible, but it is stated
that one of the options taken was
for the Friedmau property, near
Maegley Junction. -Journal.
Capital Punishment
Great fear always takes posses
session when we think of making
any kind of change: the fear seems
to hit lawyers and judges hardest,
possibly because they live so much
in the realm of precedent. Lord
Eleuhorotigli predicted chaos if men
1 were not hanged for petit larceny,
with chieflv satisfactory results.
lunnic nooiisuru cnpimi puinsii
incut 187G. Re-established 1S83.
Homicides rose from 4 to 13. and
Governor in his message called tor
the re-enactment of nbolishmcut of
capital punishment and it was re
tabllshed in 1887. With capital
punishment homicide triaN averaged
n little less than 13 Without cap
ital punishment the average was
7, with a growing population. If
the population is taken into ac
count there were twice ns ninny
murders under capital punishment
ns without it.
Michlgnti abolished 18.(7, so tM's
can be said to be the pioneer stnte
in this reform movement. For the
last 25 years it has had fewer homi
cides in proportion to its population
than neighboring states thu,t retain
the law. It has less than one-third
the number of Ohio.
Wisconsin abolished in 1853, with
no disposition to return to it again;
In 1873 Governor Washburn said:
"It is 20 years since we abolished
cnnltnl nmiishmotit nnd 110 State can I
sliow greater freedom from honii
cldal crimes."
Rhode Island abolished 1852,01111
the chief justice says: "My obser
vation fully justifies me in saying
that conviction is far more certain
now than when the death p-nalty
was in vogue."
Concerning two states. Much
has been said about the "failure"
of the abolishment of capital pun
isliincnt in Colorado and Iowa,
Colorado in 1897 and had n trial
of three years. In 1900 two negroes
and a 'white mau were lynched for
atrocious crimes ntul the clamor for
revenge from the people called for
the restoration of capital punish
ment In part. Now the jury is giv
en the power to say whether a man
shall be hung or given n life sen
tence. The agitation for the aboli
tion of capital punishment still con
tinues, for statistics show that res
toration has not diminished the
number of murders.
Iowa abolished 1872. Re-established
1878. Here, us in Colorado,
the jury have been given the right
to modify the verdict to life impris
onment, which has practically meant
the abolition of capital punishment
altogether, for only two legul exe
cutions have 'occurred in the last
12 years.
Belgium has not abolished capi
tal punishment, but 110 executions
have beeu carried out since 1863.
During the decade 1846-1855 when
executions were carried out there
were 1.13 capitul sentences. In the
decade 1856-65 when executions
were not carried out there were but
87 capital sentences. In other
words, with no executions the mur
der cases had decreased 40 per cent.
Holland abolished 1870, Dutch
Minister of Justice says after a re
view of statistics: "the statistics
demonstrate that murders, in pro
portion to the population are dimin
ishing." Italy, by the new cod6 in 1889
abolished capital punishment Mur
ders are frequent, which is due to
racial and climatic and other con
ditions. Altho murders are frequent
in Tuscany still the. number in
comparison to those of Sicily, her
neighboring country with like con
ditions, is one to teu.
Portugal abolished 1863. Homi
cides said to have gone as high as
220 iu a single year were reduced
nearly half that number in 1880.
A number of the leading nations,
while not abolishing capital punish
ment, nre drifting that way. In
England nearly half the death sen
tences passed are commuted, In
Austria between 1870 and 1879, 794
out of 806 were commuted. Id
Sweden 29 out of 32. Iu Norway
1 1 out of 14. Denmark 93 out of
out of 94. In Bavaria 242 out of
249. In North Germany between
1869-1878, 483 out of 484, the oue
convict in this case being not actu
ally guilty of murder, but only of
the attempt at it, that is.au attempt
on the Kaiser's life.
Many fear the bugaboo of over
worked pardoning in case of abol
ishment of capital punishment. In
1906 the warden of Wisconsin
said: "there are 263 prisoners un
der life sentence, 65 have been par
doned," then adds this significant
fact: "there was only one out of the
65 who returned to a life of crime'
Big Yield of Spuds
Talk about spuds. If you wish
to see the nc plus ultra of tuber pro
duction take a squint at the volun
teer crop at P. A. Bredcen's store
ou North Jersey. I'. A. presuma
bly swept out his grocery one duy
last spring (maybe more than one
day) and among other thiugs, he
ejected a little spud, too small to
sell even when they were going at
$1.75. It was covered in some acci
dental manner, the spring rains and
sunshine ilid the rest. The spud
came up early uud prospered. The
ubiquitous boy and his ever present
canine companion vainly trampled
it iu their gaircs; the exigencies of
business often heat it to earth with
the moving of sundry boxes nnd
barrels, only to sec it rise phccnlx
like when the impediment! were re
moved. The spud, like Longfel
low's turnip, "grew, nnd It grew as
long as it was able," and then, when
the scar and yellow leaf betokened 1
the harvest time, P. A. thought to
secure a good spud or two for his
dinner. He began to dig ami the
fine big tubers began to roll out un
til the astonished farmer thought he
had struck a potato mjtie. The
yield was 32 pounds, the largest
individual spud weighing 3 lbs.
It is suggested that Mr. Brcdecn
move his store and sow the entire
lot to cast off (I) potatoes It would
beat an oil well as n mousy maker.
Now comes G. W. Dtuibar, the
fiy cop of the first ward'eud depos
es and says that he has six rows of
Irish potatoes, (he know, they arc
Irish because he is Irish and they
belong to liiiu,)and the said rows ate,
approximately 32 feet in 'length, and
he further deposes and says that
his family began to use of these
said Irish potatoes on the: first day
of July 1912, at his residence, 520
East Mohawk street, that they have
used of them continuously ever
since, that ou Moudoy of this week
he dug the remainder of these six
rows of Irish potatoes, ,atid there
were fully 200 pounds tof as fine,
sound and smooth spuds As you can
find iiuvwhere. As an evidence of
good faith, and as corroborative
testimony to the truth of the fore
going, deponent deposited iu this
office four beautiful, white Bur
batik tubers, each as large as your
foot, which he avers came from one
hill and that there four others that
were equally as large and fine. He
olso stated that "Widow Dunbar"
declares this the finest crop of spuds
she has grown in St. Johns; and
further deponent saith uot. If any
other of our city farmers cau beat
these illustrious husbandmen we
we would like to see the color of
their hair.
A Hard Proposition
That druggists sometimes have
hard propositions to grapple with
when filling; prescriptions was dem
onstrated in one instance last week
iu the St. Johns Pharmacy. A par
ty wanted a prescription filled and
sent a boy to the drug store with
the prescription written out, of
which the following Is a fair copy:
b a Rome, 5c.
camfor, 5c.
a n care, 5c,
car b ace, 5c.
This stumped the druggist and
on calling up the' party he was as
tonished that the drug mixer could
not make it out. Rightly written
it reads: Bay rum, camphor, arnica
and carbolic acid mixed together.

As far as facts are known there is
not on record in this country the
case of a single lifetimer who was
pardoned and committed murder
again. There are only two cases
on record where such crimes have
been perpetrated, and those are iu
far off Italy. The contention that
lifetimers often go crazy, because
of their confinement, is no serious
objection, for insanity has usually
followed solitary confinement, which
is not practiced much of late except
for incorrigibility in prison.
Satisfaction, is the word Gil
more, the Barber.
Drowning Disaster
The most distressing accident
that ever happeucd In St. Johns oc
curred Sunday evening, when two
young lives were snuffed out in the
waters of the Willamette. It was a
case wherein one young woman
gave up her life for her friend, great
er love than which no 011c cau
show. There have been several
conflicting stories told about the
sad affair, but the facts arc as fol
lows: Lconin May DitMoud nnd
Orpha Marie Meyer, two young
friends, at the instance of the latter
decided to take a little boat ride. ,
The DuMond family was preparing
to move nearer to Mr. DuMond' s
work, and the young ladies believ
ing that it might be the last oppor
tunity for a long time to spend a
a little time together on the river,
wended their way thither. The
father of Miss Meyer remonstrated
against the proposed trip, but the
young ladies believed there was no
danger if they kept close to the
shore. The time was shortly after
seven o'clock in the evening. A
boat was secured at the Richmond
street dock, and a lantern borrowed
to serve as a warning against any
other vessel crowding them too
closely. They had gotten only a
short distance from the dock when
a large vessel passed which caused
the boat to be enveloped iu a swirl
of water. Orpha Mcycr.fcariug that
the lantern would be overturned by
the commotion, attempted to grab
it up from where it had been sit
ting iu the bow of the vessel. Some
how she tripped in so doing and
fell into the river. Her compan
ion immediately jumped into the
river to rescue her. Miss DuMond
was an expert swimmer and diver,
but was unable to quiet the girl's
struggles sufficiently to drag her to
shore, which was uot over 40 feet
distant. But she persisted in her
heroic efforts and her drowning
companion fought for life with des
peration, badly bruising in her
struggles the face and body of her
would-be rescuer. Despite the mis
directed resistance, Miss DuMond
continued her efforts of rescue un
til she was utterly exhausted, and
ami before she could save herself
sank into the waters. In her strug
gles Miss Myer tore the skirt from
her companion and retained it in
her grasp. The watch which the
latter carried stopped at 7:30, so
that must have been the hour when
the double drowning took place.
The body of Miss Myer was recov
ered first after lying in the water
for one hour and twenty minutes.
The body of her companion was re
covered twenty minutes later. There
were tio signs of life in cither, altho
Mr. DuMond worked more than an
hour over their bodies. An at
tempt was made to secure a physi
cian, but it was uot until the bod
ies hud, !i'K heen recovered before
one put in an appearance.
F. A. Meyer, the father of oue
of the young women, followed the
couple to the river, as he had a pre
sentiment that au accident might
occur, but in the roundabout way
he had to follow the boat, he did
arrive on the scene until five min
utes after the accident occurred.
Mr. DuMond arrived iu about 15
minutes, and while he is an ex-
fert diver, he had no means of
nowing the exact spot where to
go down after and secure the bod
ies while life may uot have yet be
come extinct. Mrs, Meyer wit
nessed the accident from the dock,
but she was unable to render the
slightest assistance except to go for
help. A little brother of Miss Du
Mond also saw the affair, and he
rushed to his home to tell his fath
er of it. It is said that n vessel
passed by while the couple were
struggling in the water, that a
searchlight was thrown upon the
scene but the vessel passed by with
out offeiing any aid.
The accident was a most deplor
able one, and it is deeply regretted
that the wondrous heroism shown
by Miss DuMond failed of its pur
pose, and that she lost her own life
iu endeavoring to save the life of
her friend. The sympathy of the
entire community goes out to the
stricken families in this their sad
hour of bereavement.
Leonia May DuMond was born
in Ashlatid, Wisconsin, December
14, 1889, and came with her family
to St.Johns in January of this year,
residiug at 302 West Mohawk street,
being a daughter of J. L. DuMond.
Her mother died In January, 1905,
and to her fell the care of a little
brother uutil her father married
again a few years later. She was
a member of the Presbyterian
church and was a faithful Christian
girl. Her father had early taught
her to swim and dive, and she was
at home in the water. Leonia was
a natural boru uurse.atid ever since
she was a little girl took delight iu
giviug aid to the sick. She was a
young woman who was loved by all
who knew her. Her life was a
An Interesting Career
J. E. Ray of Salt Lake City is a
guest at the home of his daughter,
Mrs. A. W. Davis. Mrs. Ray has
been here for some time ut the Da
vis home. Two years ago Mr.
Ray paid St. Johns a visit, and he
notes many improvements in the
interim. Mr. Ray has had a most
interesting career. He spent most
ot his lite ou the plains be
tween Salt Luke City and Denver.
He was intimately acquainted with
'.'Wild Bill" Hickok and spent
some time in his company, Mr.
Ray was at one time the most noted
shot in the entire west, with uo su
perior unless it might be Wild Bill,
with whom he never tried issues.
He refused an offer of $10,000 per
year to travel around as an expert
shot, meeting all comers. He had
quite a reputation as a foot racer
also. He killed over 4000 deer iu
his time aud buffalo and other game
without number. He was a Unit
ed States official and fought Indians
and desperadoes on numerous occa
sions. At present he is engaged iu
mining and real estate business, iu
which he has been eminently suc
cessful. He is a most Interesting
man to meet, sociable, genial and u
ready and interesting talker.
Governors' Meeting
At a meeting of the board of gov
ernors of the Commercial club Mon
day nftcrnoou the matter of estab
lishing a passenger aud express de
pot ou Dawson street adjoining the
trolley bridge was taken up, .aud
the secretary directed to get into
communication with the officials of
the North Bank line in au effort to
aid in bringing the project about.
It was also decided to more thor
oughly investigate the matter of
the county road iu the north end
through the Gatton tract, with a
view to inducing the county un
ities to construct the necessary
bridges and place the road in good
condition. Both propositions arc
well worth working for, and there
is a good chance of success in each
instance.
pure nnd bright one, and her friends
were many. A father, stepmother,
two brothers aud one sister survive.
Oue brother is In New York city,
and a step brother is attending
Drake University, DesMoiucs, la.
That she should be cut off iu the
very prime of her young woman
hood, when life was just at its
brightest, seem hard to realize, yet
the ways of Providence are Inscrut
able, and somehow it must be for
for the best, yet how hard to under
stand i God must have need of the
brightest lives, else he would uot
call them so frequently.
Orpha Marie Meyer was born iu
Meygers, Oregon, almost 15 years
ago, and came with her parents to
live in St. Johns three years ago
last April. She was a member of
the Methodist church and her young
life was spotless and Christiau-like.
Full of life and spirits and good
cheer, she was a girl that oue could
not help but like, and her death,
coming iu such a sudden aud unex
pected manner, is a most distressing
blow to the family and her friends.
She is survived by her parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Fred A, Meyer, six
brothers and one sister, residiug at
312 Crawford street.
The double funeral took place at
the Methodist church Tuesday aft
eruoou at 2 o'clock, Rev. J. J. Pat
ton preaching the funeral sermon,
aud eulogized the Christ-like love
of Miss DuMond for her friend, that
she should give up her life for her.
The chop meu of the Albiua shops,
of which Mr. DuMond is foreman,
sent a most beautiful floral tribute
in the shape of a chair, handsomely
decorated, and all that could be
spared from the shops attended the
funeral, shop men acting as pall
bearers, Interment took place iu
the Columbia cemetery, where the
two friends were buried side by
side. Aud thus God has gathered
at his footstool two of St. Johns'
fairest gems.
