JUDGE GRANTS NON-SUIT Only One Case Tuesday-Divorce Granted Plaintiff Mary Bruce. The trial of the suit of Loretta A. Jackson vs. Oregon Electric Railway Company took up most of the day In the Circuit Court,' Friday. Mrs. Jack son, the plaintiff, commenced suit the latter part of last year. In her complaint she alleged that a car on that line had been chartered for 25 people, Including herself and four children, which were approved by the agent of the road, who directed them lo get aboard the car and take seats. When about three mlle out of Port land, in the vicinity , of Wilsonville, the conductor came along and refused to accept her ticket and those of the children, and put them oft in a very boisterous and ungentlemanly manner, for which she asked $3000 damages. When they got aboard another car at Wilsonville. the conductor of that car also refused to accept her ticket and compelled them all to pay fare to Chematka, the point for which they held their tickets, and for this she asked the further sum of. $3000. On the first cause the case was non-suited by Judge McBride, for the reason that the cause for action originated in Multnomah county and was completed there, but the second cause, originat ing In Clackamas county, was In his jurisdiction. After considerable tes timony had been submitted Harrison Allen, the company's attorney moved for a non-suit, on the ground that the conductor of the second car was not bound to honor the tickets, they being good for only the special car that was chartered. Judge Campbell granted the motion for the non-suit, on the grounds that the conductor of, the sec uinl car was. not bound to honor' the tickets held by the plaintiff and her children, and had no authority to do no. In the first case, however, he said that the conductor of the special car l ad exceded his authority in putting Mrs. Jackson and her children off the cur, as they had a legal right to be carried to their destination. Allen R. Joy appeared for tne plaintiff, and Harrison Allen and C. E. McCullough for the company. Matters were quiet In the Circuit Court Tuesday, only one case coming up for trial, the divorce suit of Mary E. Bruce vs. H. T. Bruce. The same was a default case, and a decree of divorce was granted by Judge Eakin to the plaintiff. Charles Moehnke, by his attorney, C. H. Dye filed a lien Tuesday, upon an acre In the Robertson tract,, the property of Mrs. Maybelle M. Robert son, for the sum of $116.75, for lum ber furnished for a building on the land, up to May 22 last. f Not, Why Electric Light is PORTLAND RAILWAY Lights Power Company OFFICERS AND TOUGHS ENCOUN TER AT E8TACADA.

YOUNG MOEHNKE BADLY INJURED Has Thigh Deeply Gained by Saw Wed. ueadayWill Not Be Crippled A very serious accident occurred at Clarkes Wednesday afternoon at the Everhardt Shingle Mill, when Charles Moehnke, son of Ootfrled Moehnke, of that precinct, was caught In the edg ing saw at the mill, receiving a ter rible cut in the right leg extending down a distance of about ten Inches. The young man was attempting to pass the saw and came too close, re sulting In being caught and receiv ing the long gash as stated, which upon examination was found to be a flesh wound and about an Inch deep.

In those days hos pitals and other provisions for caring for the poor and the sick were scarce and to meet a pressing need Mrs, Cochran, with a number of other girls, organized a society known as tho "Ladles of Charity," and of which she, at the age of 18, was chosen president. A small building was se cured, which served as a hospital of six beds, and here the sick and the Injured were nursed back to health, or tenderly cared for till death re moved them beyond the reach of hu man help. The-work grew to such an extent that the resources of. the "Ladles of Charity" were shortly over taxed, and thty appealed for assistance to the Rev. Bishop Blanchet, the head of the Roman Catholic missions of the North west, and in response six Sisters of Charily, with Mother Joseph as Sis ter Superior, journeyed west from Canada to assume charge of the hos-. pital work.
