CHICAGO, Oct. 15. Colonel Roose
velt, shot last night by a crank in Mil
waukee, was resting easy tonight and
his pyysicians said, after a day of
nervous strain, that they were pleas
ed by his condition.
before he went to sleep. A rise in
temperature followed, together with a
slight local irritition. Otherwise the
patient exhibited no symptoms from
the anti-toxin, although the surgeons
were prepared for the Blight nausea
; and dizziness that sometimes follow
the treatment. The six-tenths of a
degree oil temperature, it is said,
: was not caused by the condition of
. the wound, as up to the time of the
injection, the patient's temperature
j virtually was normal. The increase
in the rate of his pulse is not ac
counted fbr.
Colonel Roosevelt's temperature
was materially reduced after his doze
and a sponge bath which he was given
at 10:30. His pulse then registered
two counts higher, but this is not con
sidered an especially significant symp
tom in a man of his sanguine tem
perament. His temperature came
down from 99.2 to 98.8, two-tenths of
a degree above normal.

serious condition in Chicago hosp ital.
The clinical record showed howev
er, that his condition was hardly as
favorable as when he entered the hos
pital early this morning. His pulse
at 10 o'clock was 86, or 14 counts '
above normal, and two counts above
the record two hours after he was
shot.
Hi 3 temperature was 99.2, or three
fiftb.3 of a degree above normal. It
was believed the night would indicate
whether the wound would heal up
normally.
Dr. John B. Murphy, who is in
charge of the case, left the hospital
before 10 o'clock for the night.
"Colonel Roosevelt is resting quiet
ly," he said. "He had a small dinner.
There was less distress in his breath
ing. His general condition is excep
tionally good and he should have a
good night."
Other attending ' physicians left the
hospital for the night.
Dr. Scurry Terrell remained, spend
ing the night in an adjoining room.
It was said that no further examina
tions of the wound would be made
until 8 o'clock tomorrow morning,
when a consultation will be held.
Tetanus anti-toxin was injected in

AGIST SINGLE TAX
Grant B. Dimick will speak' at
Needy at .7:30 o'clock next Saturday
evening against the Single Tax meas
ures. Mr. Dimick is one of the bet
posted men in the state on methods
of taxation, having been county Judge
for several terms, and he declares the
adoption of Single Tax virtually
means the confiscation by the state
of all real estate. Persons who attend
ed the jcint debate between Mr. Dim
ick and W. S. U'Ren last spring on
the single tax question say that Mr.
Dimick had the better of the argu
ment. It is expected that a large
crowd will hear the address. Women
probably will be enfranchised at the
coming election and are especially in
vited to attend. -

BOSTON, Oct. 15. For the first
time in the world's series history, the
championship battle goes to the
eighth game. Rushing the; peerless
and unbeaten Joe Wood even more
savagely than they had rushed Buck
O'Brien yesterday, the New York
Giants drove "'Smoky Joe" from the
field with the worst be'ating he has
ever received in his big league career.
In the first assault they stripped his
hide off with seven hits and six runs.
Before this fusillade of shrapnel and
cani.ter Boston seemed stunned and
crushed. The impossible had happen
ed the world was coming to an end.
Gibraltar could be toppled over by hu

Joe Wood at home m a test game
and shot him to death in one round.
Conceding defeat after this shoal of
hits and runs, Stahl derricked Wood

LA GRANDE, Or., Oct. 15. (Special)
' Indorsement of the socalled major
ity amendment of the constitution, to
be voted on at the November election,
was given by the Blue Mountain
Grange No. 345, at its last meeting.
The grange unanimously adopted a
resolution, in which it held that the
present excessive use of the initiative
is its worst enemy and expressed the
belief that a remedy lies in the pro
posed measure, making necessary a
majority vote of all electors at any
election to change the constitution. .
The resolution adopted by the
grange follows:
"Whereas, Blue ' Mountain Grange
has been and is friendly to the initia
tive and referendum; and since it is
the sense of this grange that the pres
ent excessive use of the initiative is
its worst enemy there are now be
fore the people of Oregon certain pro
posed constitutional amendments that
threaten with1 calamity the busines.
and industrial interests of the state:
"Therefore, We believe there is
some inherent weakness in the pres
ent form of the initiative that must be
strengthened . '
"We believe the most grave weak
ness is this: It is possible in Oregon,
under the initiative in its present
form; to amend the constitution of
the state by a minority of the elector
al votes therein.
"Eecause of this, that is, because of
the ease with which constitutional
amendments may be enacted, we are
constantly menaced by a strenuous
effort on the part of some for the
adoption -of constitutional amend
ments that contain in them visionary
and ruinous ideas, ideas that in their
nature and purpose tend to undermine.
the principles upon which our laws
are based, upon which business rests,
and upon which the purposes of our
lives and "the wellfare of our homes
has been established, and by which
they are maintained. Thus the fun
damental laws of busines and indus
try are made unstable and insecure.
We regard this chaosand uncertainty
as detrimental to progress, both in
dustrially and socially. Therefore be

"Resolved, By the Blue Mountain
Grange No. 345, That we indorse that
propo;ed constitutional amendment to
be voted upon November 5 next, that
provides that a mojority of all the
legal electors voting at an election
shall be required for the adoption of
an amendment to the state consttu
tion of the state constitution.

GES SEPARATION OF CHURCH
AND STATE -
DR. MILLIKEN WELCOMES VISITORS
Annual Sermon Is Delivered by Rev.
W. H. Eaton, of Roseburg In
teresting Program to be
Given Today
O. P. Coshow, of Roseburg, presi
dent of the state Baptist convention,
which was convened in this city Tues
day evening, in his annual address
told of the great principles for which
the denomination stands, and declared
that there must be a complete sepa
ration of church and state. He said
that the kingdom of Christ was a spir
itual kingdom, 'and cannot be advan
ced by the force of arms or even the
arm of civil law. In his opinion the
church oversteps its province when it
adopts resolutions favoring women's
suffrage, or prohibition.
"We should not expect the Bible
to be taught in the public schools,"
said the speaker. "State and church
must ever be separate. Christ stated
the only safe principle when he said
'Render unto Caesar the tnings that
are Caesar's, and unto God the things
that are God's.' "
The annual sermon, which was an
interesting and instructive one was
preached by Rev. W. H. Eaton, of
Ro'.eburg, his text being, "What is
your life?" James 4:14. More than
150 delegates were present and the
convention which will continue today
and tomorrow, promises to be one
of the most successful ever held in
the state. Delegates were cordially
received by Dr. W. T. Milliken, and
the members of the First Baptist
church of this city, and were assigned
to various homes where they are be
ing entertained. The platform of the
church was tastefully decorated, with
chrysthemums, ferns, and autumn
leaves.
After a devotional meeting held by
Rev. E. A. Smith, the convention was
called to order by President Coshow.
Rev. H. W. Davis, of Eugene, was ap
pointed secretary. Following an an
them by the choir, Dr. Milliken made
the address of welcome.
Mr. Eaton, in his annual sermon
said that the most mysterious of all
things is life. ' Neither the scientist
nor the theologian can explain It.

J. E. Hedges, chairman of a commit
tee appointed to inaugurate a cam
paign for the defeat of the bill provid
ing for the division of Clackammas
county, reported -at a luncheon of
the Live Wires Tuesday that senti
ment throughout the county was a
gainst the measure. He said that the
county court had informed the com
mittee that it could not contribute
funds for carrying ont the campaign
against division. Mr. Hedges said
the committee had written to voters
in various parts of the county asking
for funds to assist in the work. It is
believed that the contributions will
be generous. O. D. Eby made several
suggestions, which were received so
favorably that he was made a member
of the committee.
State Fruit Inspector Goodrich urg
ed that the orchards of Clackamas
county be given better attention. He
said that many of the orchards were
old and the trees were diseased. The
inspector advocated the extermination
of all trees too old to be restored to
a healthy condition. The suggestion
was discussed by various members of
the organization and it was the unan
imous opinion that the suggestion of
Mr. Goodrich should be acted upon at
once.
w Circuit Judge Campbell congratulat
ed the Commercial Club and the Live
Wires upon the work that was being
accomplished by them. He recalled
when he was one of the workers of
the Board of Trade several years ago,
and declarea that the merchants then
did not manifest the same friendly
feeling toward each other- that they
do now. He said he was delighted to
know that there was no more petty
jealousies and that merchants, preach
ers, doctors and lawyers were work
ing together for better things.

MRS LEWIS OF REDLAND
IS OPERATED UPON HERE
Mrs. J. Lewi3 of Redland, who was
brought to the Oregon City Hospital
Monday, underwent a serious opera
tion Tuesday morning, . Dr. H. S.
Mount and Dr. Guy Mount perform
ing the operation. - Although Mrs.
Lewis is about sixty-five years of age
she rallied from the operation and is
improving, and will be able to return
to her home in several weekf.
, For thou.ands of years as far back as historical records go the universal token of love
and, friendship has been precious stones and jewels. To every race in every age and gen
eration, gems and jewels have held a charm more alluring than money, lanH, merchandise
or any other form of wealth.
And with each generation, the sentiment attached to the giving and owning of jewels
grows. '
Every achievement in life is associated with gifts of beautiful jewels a diminutive ring
for the baby; bracelets, and neck chains for birthday remembrances; at graduation, per
haps a fine watch; a diamond ring announces t-ie marriage engagement; and at the wed
ding, the crownlDg event of all, a multitude of precioui gems, stones and jewels.
Search the gamut of human wants and you will find no gift so acceptable as Jewelry.
Good jewelry is a heritage that is handed down from generation to generation and an en
during remembrance of the giver.
When you wish to select jewelry for your friends or relatives, come to this store. You
can not find more dependable jewelry any place; you can not find so large a line or so many'
novelties elsewhere in this city. Nor are the prices we ask in any case unreasonable. In
many instances a comparison will demonstrate that to trade here means aconsiderable cash
saving. .
If you are unfamiliar with jewelry, we will be glad to help you "to make tasteful selec
tions. On the otherhandi if you are accustomed to buying rings, lockets, bracelets, watch
es, etc., so much the better. You will appreciate the more keenly the high quality of our
goods and our up to date selections.
Needless to say, every article of merchandise we sell is warranted to be exactly as
represented. There's no chance for deception at this store.
Our line is particularly interesting in rings, brooches, bracelets, , necklaces, lockets,
pin?, watches and late novelties. -
Come and visit our store, whether or not you are ready to purchase jewelry. Bring
your friends along. We take pleasure in showing the many beautiful gems and jewels that
we have. ' '
