The New York Novelty & Japanese
company which nhowed here lant Satur
day night was attached by W. C. Faulk
aerof the Electric hotel on Monday for
s board bill of between $8 and (9, and

begun before Judge Fouts and is set for
the .3d of October.
Since the first of the year there has
been no less than four deaths at or in
the immediate vicinity of the Clackamas
bridge on the electric line between here
and Portland . The accident on Wednes
day which resulted in the killing of Carl
Perham was so sudden and unexpected
that it shocked his fellow workmen for
the moment and they were powerless to
render aid. Indeed it is almost certain
that death ensued the moment his hands
came in contact with the wire which
imparted the shock.
The accident, as learned by a reporter
who visited the scene immediately alter
it occurred and talked with those who
witnessed it, happened a little bclore five
o'clock in the afternoon. The men had
urcii at wor an nay on uie upper ciiorul
of the bridge tightening up the rod for
the purpose of getting the bridge which
bad swayed to one side back in its nor
mal position. In their work they had
occasion frequently to pass from one side
of the bridge to the other upon the lat
eral braces and In doing so steadied
themselves by the several electric light
wires which are strung upon the bridge
for the East Portland circuit . No shock
had been felt at any time during the day
and no thought ot danger occurred to the
men when a little More 5 o'clock Carl
Perham had occasion to cross the hi idge
for an auger that was needed. He had
nearly reached the opposite side when
his fellow workmen were startled by the
sound usual to crossed electric wires and
hastily looking up they saw that he had
fallen across the wires upon his back and
that a bright blaze was leaping from
each of his hands which were held fast
to the two wires which he hsd hold of
when he received the shock. His brother
Robert was at work with him on the up
per part of the bridge but was powerless
to relieve him or free the body from
contact with the wires. H. W. Per
ham, another brother, and foreman of the
work, was on the floor of the bridge,
and seeing the position in which his
brother was he ran beneath hint to
be ready to catch him in case he
should fall. After being in contact with
the live wires for the space of about half
a minute the bands released their grasp
and the body fell and was caught by H.
W. Perham, who carried it to the bank
where attempts were made to resuscitate
it but without avail. Coroner Ilolman
was notified and immediately went to
the scene of the accident where, after
making a careful investigation, he de
cided that an inquest was unnecessary.
The body was brouiht to the undertak
ing rooms of R. L. Ilolman in this city
where Dr. Carll made a caretul exam
ination to see if there remained any
sign of life. Deciding that there was
none the body was prepared for burial
and sent to Portland, where he lived, on
a special car on ThursJav morning.
Carl Perham was one of four brothers
who lived with their mother in East
Portland, and he and his brothers bad
been at work for some time in and about
this city, where he had formed quite a
pleasant acquaintance, as he was a very
pleasant and genial young man of good
habits and character. His death is
deeply regretted by all who knew him.

Don't Consign Yoar Hops.
Joel T. Goer, who Is closely watching
the hop market writes as follows con
cerning the practice of consigning hops:
"Tho most ridiculous thing that grow
ers can do, In my opinion, Is to let deal
ers huve their ln to ship, I lie grower
to have the going price at soino future
day, between now and the Inst of Octo
ber. They ought to be able to seo that
they are only furnishing the dealer and
brewer just that amount of hops with
which to beat down the market, and If
any considerable number would do that
the dealer hsd as well olfer 12 cents as
twice that amount. These ho go to
the brewer and they have them to use
andean stay out of the maiket that
much longer, while the oor deluded
grower is vainly hoping to see the price
get hotter, so he can have a chauce to
name a good figure. The "hand to
mouth" policy of the buyer Is thus helped
on by the grower that is condemning it,
and the price is kept down on him with
the help of his own hops. Fortunately
there are few of them doing It, but there
are a few ; but if all were to do that, the
brewer would get the hops and the
grower would take what they were willing
to give him. It is a good dual like going
off and tolling the dealer to go to your
hop house aud take the hops and give
you what he thought you ought to have."

the tall term ot school will own next
Monday at which time the new school
building will be occupied for the first
time. The school board has a notice in
the paper relative to the classification
which it would be well for all patrons of
the school to make a note of. It might
also be well for parents who have child
ren wuu wish io truer me chart or begin
ning class to bear in mind the fact that
in the two years past the overcrowded
condition of the schools during the year
has prevented the formation of a chart
class after the opening of the term. It
is, therefore, desireable that all who are
to enter that and other classes should do
so the firet day of the school year.

The brick for Main street are being de

are being carefully examined by our peo
