A gay throng gathered in Bunch's Hall last night to do honor to the candidates In Tha Enterprise Grand Voting Contest The crowd waa a large ore, coming from every part of Clackamas county. Several of the candidates were unable to be present, but there was a good representation. After the danc tha candidates and thetr friends were entertained by the Contest Management at a banquet at "The Falls," a party of about thirty being all that could remain for the spread. Those candidates who were unable to be present missed a very enjoya ble evening and (he contest manage ment wishes to express Its regret over your absence. Notice how the double vote offer haa brought tha totals up for all the candidates. Mlsa gmlth haa passed the 200,000 mark and Miss Cloaner la running her -a close second. Miss Closner deserves special mention for the excellent work she la doing. Liv ing In the more sparsely settled part of the county, subscriptions are few and far between and the total vote she haa run up shows that her work tins been -unremitting and strenuous. But wait until tomorrow, there will be another story to tell, and don"t give- up . candidates. , You ara tired after an exciting evening, but the price of success la unremitting en deavor and If some of you knew the resl handicaps some of the other can-j dldates have undergone to achieve the success that has come to them you would think your work a snap. The Executive Committee, of the Eaat Side Capital Higbwar Associa tion, at a meeting Wednesday .night at the Commercial Club, recomiueu ed the River road as the most feasi ble route for tbe proposed capital highway from here to Portland.

LITTLE CHILD IS HOT WATER VICTIM The eighteen-months' old child of Mr. and Mra. D. Schraeder, of Naef Station, ia recovering from the severe burns received on Saturday morning at 8 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mra. Schraeder. A large kettle of hot water waa on the stove, which was to have been used for the scald lng of dressed chickens. The little child accidentally pulled the kettle of hot water over on Itself. The par ents hastened to thla city with the child, and Dr. H. S. Mount dreaed the burns. The chest of the little one was terribly scalded. Fortunately little of the water came In contact with the chlld"B face. Its arma were badly burned. County Superintendent of Schools Gary haa made preparations for the opening of school, next month. He baa wiltten a letter, a copy of which will be sent to each school officer In this county, notifying them of the short time until school will begin, and. asking that all the buildings be prop erly cleaned, aired, and all water sup plies looked after. In part, the letter saya. "Feeling the need of better spelling and more accurate and rapid computation, the Clackamas County School League as sisted by the teachers, supervisors and county superintendent will conduct a spelling and arithmetic contest" real estate firm, of Oregon City, will give real estate to the value of $300 to the school making tbe highest aver age In the test The contest will be run on a percentage basis, which will give all the schools an equal chance. Tbe contest will be a series of five examiuat&)na conducted bv the teach era, at their respective schools, the questions being uniform and furnish ed by the county school league. At the clone of the five testa, the ten highest schools will be given a test by the superintendent, and tbe one standing highest In this test, will be awarded 50 per cent of the value of the property, which will probably be sold in order to make the division. The school standing secoud will re ceive 1C and two-thirds per cent of the value, and six and two-thirds per cent will be given to the best fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth grade, in the county, that stand the highest. It la the opinion of County Super intendent Gary, that by offering the prlr.es to the whole school, the pupils will all be encouraged to do harder work than If It waa offered to the one best student In the spelling contest. the percentage system will be used. that Is if a student Is absent on tbe day of test, tbe words that this stu dent should have spelled will all be counted missed. In this way there will be no chance for the poor spellers to stay out on test day and help boost the average of their school. Most of the plana have been per fected for this large contest, and It Is thought the final test will take place sometime In March, of this school year. VICTOILA-CfS AliD L II.

In which they were riding, turned turtle on the Park place road, oae mile and a quarter from Oigon CUy. Wednesday arternoon. One or tM front wheels' of the car ran off the road, and aa the driver tried to torn It back on the thoroughfare. It col lapsed, throwing the automobile Into a ditch three feet deep. The Dad. Ii. H. YOUNG, fanner, fifty-five year old,' Damascus, akull crushed and body bruised, HARRY A. CUMMINGS. automobile demonstrator, thlrty-eeven yeara old, Portland, skull and breast crashed. The Injured. FREDERICK KUMMER. twenty-one years old. farmer, Damascus, cat on head and face. Tbe party came to Oregon City la the - machine, which ' belonged to Young, early in the afternoon. Sev eral hours were spent, here, and short ly after 6 o'clock they started back to Damascus. It is declared by persons who saw the party that the machine was going at a rate of more than thirty mile) an hour when the accident occurred. Kummer aaya tbe speed wa not more than fifteen miles an hour, wit nesses of the accident say that the machine and lta occupant were al most obscured by the dust that waa raised Just before the fatal plunge. Two Caught Under Car. Paul Fisher, of Gladstone, was the first man to reach the scene of the accident Kummer, who had been . thrown clear of the wreck bad regain- - ed his feet and waa running about in a dazed condition.. The other two were pinned under the heavy car. Fisher was soon Joined by Perry Rich ardson and Frank Sowers, of Glad stone, and O. F. Dlmlck, of Oregon City. Judge Dimlck. who waa In hla automobile several hundred yards be hind the other machine, thinks that it was going at a rate of at least twenty-five miles an hour. He says he was looking at the car when it die appeared, and it waa several seconds before he realized that the party had been precipitated Into the ditch. The wrecked automobile waa remov ed from Young and Cummlnga. The former was dead, but Cummlnga ling- . ered In an unconscious condition for ten or fifteen minutes. Dr. Strickland of thla city, and Dr. Walton wer noti fied and hurried to the scene of the accident Cummlnga died Just a little before they arrived, and Kummer'a in juries were not serious enough to be given attention. Bodies Brought Here. Coroner Wilson had the bodies re moved to the Holman undertaking es tablishment in thla city, and will hold an Inquest at f o'clock this afternoon. Mrs. Young waa notified of her hus band's death, and will com to Ore gon City this morning. She has eight children. Mr. Young was one or the most prominent farmers In the Da mascus neighborhood. He waa well-to-do. The famllv of Mr. Cummlnga. who had formerly been employed by the Speedwell garage In Portland, were , notified, and will take charge of the body today. Kummer said that the accident was caused by the steering gew having worked looee. The front wheels, ne said, had not run true for several min utes, and Young, who was driving the machine, had remarked about it being out of order. We were going along at a rate or about fifteen milee an hour," Kum mer said, "when th front wheel ran off the road. Young tried his nest to get it back. The wheel however. collapsed, and we were thrown into the ditch. I don't know how I es caped. I waa sitting on the front seat with Young, who wss on the sine tnat careened. I ws thrown clear or th wreck, and was on my feet almost Immediately after I struck the ground. I did not think at first that I was In jured. However. I am only slightly bruised and cut." Cause Much Excitement There waa much excitement in tni city when the first news or the ac cident was received, and several oth er persons were thought to have been killed and Injured. Large crowds view-. ed the bodies at the undertaking es tablishment. Including many friend of the dead men. . . ' . Coroner Wilson said thf the acci dent probably waa th most serious that had ever happened tn an auto mobile party In this county. That It was due to th recklessness of the driver Is generally believed, iwr. Young hsd driven an automobile for shout a year, and was considered an expert at the wheel. Cummlngs had frequently visited In this city, and -was assigned to Oregon City aa a demonstrator by the Speedwell garag for aeveral daye about two months aa-n. He waa one of th heat known chauffeurs In Portland. The machlfl was a seven-passenger Overland, ana had been In ua two or tnf yeavr. ,v Arrangement (or th ftroar " '1 ..y K, U'McDougall.
