TERMINAL RATES
The Oregon City Terminal Rate As
sociation is if nothing else getting
Oregon City on the freight map of the
country. The work on terminal rates
has brought to the attention of the
commission the exhorbitant rates ef
fective between Portland to Oregon
City on the first four classes and an
order from them demanding reduction
to living rates.
As soon as the Supreme Court de
cides the case now before it as the
validity of the fourth section of the in
terstate commerce act regarding long
and short haul rates, Oregon City may
expect further action in her favor
Terminal Rates' which will not only
aid our present business but bring to
our city new enterprises, the greatest
stimulant to greater prosperity.
OREGON CITY A SHIPPING POINT
Oregon City ships 300 tons per day
of manufactured goods and many tons
of farm products. Oregon City re
ceives 700 tons per day of logs and
other raw materials for its industries
and many tons of supplies for its
stores and business houses. It is safe
to say therefore that Oregon City
handles 1000 tons per day of freight
or 310,000 tons per annum or in other

PROPER GAMES APPROPRIATE TO THEIR YOUTH AND IN THE
PROPER WAY.
The time when the characters of human beings are shaped and
fixed is the PERIOD OF YOUTH. Precept and example are not
sufficient to give boys and girls backbone, honor and loyalty. These
qualities must be acquired by doing, by practice under wise direction,
and the activities best adapted for developing in young people these
sturdy virtues are PROPERLY ORGANIZED GAMES AND

SLAYS HER CHILD
AND SHOOTS SELF
(Continued from page 1)
fore the woman shot again, the bullet
crashing through the back of his head
killing him instantly.
Reloading the revolver she fired two
shots at herself, one of the bullets
ploughing through her cheek and the
other lodging in the right side of the
head.
Hardly had she fallen to the floor
when the police ran up the steps and
broke into the house. The little boy's
shirt was afire. Detective . Tichnor,
who reached the room in the rear first
put out the blaze with his hands.
Thinking that the little fellow was on
ly wounded he lifted him up. The lad
however, was dead.
Mrs. Walsh was still breathing but
with much difficulty. The Red Cross
ambulance was called and made the
run in record time, and the woman
was rushed to the St. Vincent's hos
pital, where she was operated upon
by Doctors Holt and Van Dusen, act
ing city physician. t
One peculiar incident of the tragedy
was recorded just after the woman
had been carried down the steps to
the waiting ambulance. Mrs. Martha
Christensen, an elderly woman who
lives at 1253 Greely station, walked
up the steps and started into the house
When she was stopped by the police
she persisted in trying to get past.
Mrs. Christensen, it is said, is an old
friend of the Walsh family, at one
time Mrs. Nettie Walsh having lived
at her home.
"You can't come in here," she was
told.
"Why not? Oh, I just know some
thing dreadful has happened," cried
Mrs. Christensen.
When she was told that a murder
had been committed in the house the
woman almost collapsed.
"Oh, I knew something like thifc
would happen," she sobbed. "Last
night I dreamed that little Vincent
was sick and was going to die. So
I left the house without hardly touch
ing breakfast and came here. Oh, it's
so strange that I dreamed about it,
and now the little boy is dead and
Nettie is dying."
She was allowed to go into the bed
room, where she attempted to comfort
the husband.

" 'Have you got any creams tor re

"Restoring, miss? You mean pre

England Is Enthusiastic
Over a New Hydroaeroplane

Photos copyright. 1912. by American Press Association.
THOUGH later than Americans to take up experiments with hydroaero
planes, the English are now enthusiastic over the successful maneu
vers of the machine which was tested at the recent naval review In
Weymouth bay. It Is described as having "the powers of an albatross,
able to fly over the water, float upon it and rise again." King George watched
the evolutions of the craft, which located the royal yacht in a thick fog and
later alighted on the water near the yacht and disembarked an officer who
delivered a message to the king. The naval authorities declare that In the new
invention, for which an Englishman is responsible. Great Britain has the most
remarkable and satisfactory machine of its kind in the world, "that other
powers have been left behind In the race for aerial supremacy" and that "the
British waterplane has already performed feats completely altering the condi
tions possible in naval warfare." And yet a month or so before the Weymouth
review an American h viator, Frank. Coffyn. performed feats equally remarkable
in New York harbor. The upper of the two photographs shows the waterplane

THE GRAND
PROMOTER
By M. QUAD
Copyright. 1912. by Associated Lit

Major Crofoot. grand promoter and
general organizer and debt shirker, was
a little late in reaching bis office. He
hud mounted the stairs in his usual
cautious way and decided that the
coast was clear, when be got a sur
prise. The cobbler to whom he had
been owing $2 for two or three years
was not only waiting at the door, but
Ais state ot mind was sucb that be
saluted the-major with:
"Py golly, but 1 peleef you vhas run
avbay und don't neffer come back any
more!"
"Can this be my dear old friend Was
serman?" exclaimed the major as he
extended his band. "Good lands, but
where have you been for the last
year?"
"1 haf beeu huDting for you!" was
the bluut reply. "You owe me $2 und
1 baf run my legs off almost to git dot
money, if you vhas in your office vhen
I knocked on der door you don't open
him. If you see me on der street you
run avhay. I wait for you here dis
morning und we shall settle oou or baf
some fights!''
"Fights, fights! My dear Mr. Was
serman, don't get excited. Come right
Into my ofiice and we'll talk it over.
I've had a check lying on my desk for
you for the last six months."
"I don't want some talk mit you!"
snid the cobbler as he refused a chair
"I shall take my $2 und go right
avhay."
"1 hope and trust you won't." gently
replied the promoter as he backed up
to the rusty -uai stove to jiet r-old. "In
the old dayx when I was hnrd up and
had few friends j-nn did some work for
me. and yon did not demand the readj

"You said you would pay me in two
days," protested tbe cobbler as his
bristles continued to stand up.

PRICE OF SUGAR
-ADVANCES 10 CENTS
The expected advance in the sugar
market came Tuesday, the jobbers in
Portland raising quotations on all
grades of the refined product 10 cents
a hundred, and it was intimated that
a further lift in prices was liable to
come at any time. The Eastern mar
ket now is 20 cents above the range
quoted a week ago.
For two weeks or more there has
been a generally strong feeling in the
sugar .market. On the Atlantic sea
boar statistics compiled by the lead
ing importers indicated that the out
put this year in some of the most im
portant producing countries, notably
Cuba, would fall considerably short
of the predictions made a few months
ago, and as the time passed and the
movement of the commodity seemed
to bear out these predictions the mar
ket steadily, stiffened. That it will go
well above the present level before
the end of the season now is counted
all but a certainty.
Another bullish factor of no small
importance in the sugar market is the
usual heavy increase in the demand
during the summer months, when re
quirements for fruit canning and pre
serving operations reach their maxi
mum. In the East the regular sum
mer demand for sugar is reported to
have set in with a rush, in the face
of supplies available actually short
of the showing at this time a year
ago.
Reports from Cuba"that the condi
tion of the American marget is felt
in the Island in no uncertain way. In
stead of selling freely the big produc
ers there are said to be holding back,
confident that the market from now
on will show an upward tendency.
From Europe come reports of stea
dy to firm beet sugar markets, which
also tend to keep the American mark
et in a firm position.
