termaster ASTORIA, Or., Jan. 8. The violent
gale that drove the Rosecrans on
Peacock Spit early yesterday morning
and sent 30 men to their death, con
tinued with such fury today that it
was impossible to take the Point
Adams' crew and the two rescued men
from the lightship.
. With his arm probably broken, Cap
tain Wicklund and his life-saving
crew are still aboard the lightship
with the two rescued men. One of
the rescued Rosecrans' crew is Eric
Lindmark, a carpenter, and the oth
er is not known. The oiler who per
ished after the rescue lies in the
stern of the lifeboat.
. Captain Astrup, superintendent of
the Port of Portland's towboat ser
vice, who was pn the Oneonta in the
wild search for the disabled life crew
.before it reached the lightship, has
returned ,on the St. Kilda and has
given the first graphic account of the
fury of the storm while the life crew
was battling with the waves befoia
gaining the Columbia River light
ship. Eight bodies of the wreck victims
are reported washed ashore at North
Beach and five are identified as:
Captain L. F. Johnson, H. D. Cross,
Cook; A. McDonald, messman; Hans
Tonda, second officer. Fred Peters
says he recognizes one of the bodies
as George Nelson, quartermaster.

GROWTH
H. M. Williamson, Secretary of the
State Boad of Horticulture, at a meet
ing Wednesday afternoon of fruit
growers and others, announced that
Clackamas County was fourth in the
production of fruit of the counties
of the state. The meeting was held
in the Commercial Club rooms and
was for the purpose of educating the
fruitgrowers regarding the discovery
and combatting of pests and diseas
es and to stimulate the industry in
this county. Several years ago, Mr.
Williamson said, at least a dozen
counties in the state lead Clackamas
in the production of fruit.
"From 1900 to 1910", said the speak
er, "the number of fruit trees in the
county decreased from 462,000 to
282,000, which was caused by getting
rid of worthless trees. However, in
that period the production increased
wonderfully. In 1900 50,000 bushels
of fruit was the production, while in
1910 the production was 332,000 bu
chels. The value of the crop, includ
ing nuts, in 1900 was $65,000 and in
1910 it was $321,000. So if the coun
ty continues its rapid stride there is
no telling wnere it will land as a
fruit producing section."
A. C. Goodrich, fruit commissioner
of this district explained" the various
fruit tree diseases and how to com
bat them He directed his address
largely to the children, a score or
more being present. Brenton Vedder,
principal or the Gladstone School,
accompanied a number of the pupils
of the school to the club rooms.
H. G. Huntington, of Dover, said
that fruit growing in his section ha:l
received a remarkable impetus re
cently. O. E. Freytag, County Fruit
Inspector, elaborated upon the meth
ods used for destroying pests and
eradicating disease. The same men
will speak at Barlow and Canby to
day, at Wilsanville tomorrow and at
Eagle Creek and Estacada Saturday.

Few towns of the state have made

than has Canby, the thriving city in

marked by an increase of business,
but by a large number of new resi

IS DEAD; EXCUSED
N. R. Graham, of Elliott Prairie,
a member of the jury which is hear
ing the evidence in the $7,500 damage
suit of Mary H. Conkling, adminis
tratrix of the estate of Jesse Crippen
against the Hawley Pulp & Paper
Company, was notified Wednesday
while -evidence was being heard that
his brother, "John Graham, has just
died. J. E. Jack, county assessor, re
ceived the information over telephone.
Judge Eakin suggested that Mr. Gra
ham could be excused if the lawyers
were willing that eleven men compose
the jury. The lawyers agreed at
once. John Grahom formerly was sup
erintendent of the Schools of Mar
ion County, and had for several years
lived in Eastern Oregon. Crippen
was killed while in the employ of the
defendant company at its plant at
Milwaukie. A verdict will be reached
today.
GRAND-JURYINSESSION.
The grand jury, which was recon
vened Wednesday, is expected to
make a report today. The jury is
considering evidence . in several im
portant' cases.
The city council Wednesday night
after hearing a report by Councilman
Tooze, and suggestions by B. T. Mc
Bain, and T. W. Sullivan of the Live
Wires, regarding the water supply,
called a special meeting for tomorrow
night to further consider the subject.
The report of Mr. Tooze was virtually
the same he made at the meeting of
the Live Wires the evening before,
but was elaborated upon considerably.
He suggested that a hydrocloride
plant be installed and that the intake -pipe
as soon as it was possible be.,
moved further out in the river. While "
he did not maintain that this would
.1-! 1 "1 Vl l r, 1 1 . - mi. 11'., . V. n 1. .,1
that it would greatly minimize the
chances of the water causing diseasa,
and would at least be the best thing.,
that could be done, until a suddIv. if
it were thought advisable, could-be
obtained rom another source.
The speaker said an analysis
should be made immediately af
ter the hydrocloride system
was installed in case the eoun- -cil
decided it should be. Then, he
declared, if the water were found to
be fiitny, otner arrangements could
be made. He also called attention
to the lact that something should be
done at once, declaring that owing
to the present condition many per
sons, including school children were
not drinking a sufficient amount of
water.
Lewis C. Kelsay, consulting engin
eer for the State Board of Health, ex
plained to the council the plan to
obtain water from Clear Lake, and
spoke of other sources from which
water might be obtained.
The meeting was attended by Coun
cilmen Horton, Albright, Metzner,
Long, Meyer, Beard and Tooze. Mr.
Beard was exonerated of a charge of
having served as an election officer.
The charter provides that no city of
ficial shall serve in such capacity. A
representative of the Southern Pacif
ic Railway objected to an assessment
for street improvement purposes. The
city recorder and city engineer will
make an investigation.
Thi Montague-O'Reilley Company
was given an extension of thirty days
in which to complete the hardsurfac
ing of Main Stseet from Moss Street
to the Abernethy. The company has

Attention was called to the fact that
although the freight franchise of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power
Company has been filed it had not
been signed by Judge Dimick, who
was mayor when it was approved. It
will be considered at the next meet
ing. The sewer on John Quincy Adams
Street was accepted with the excep
tion of a portion between Thirteenth
and Fourteenth Streets. City Engin
eer Yalo was instructed to make an
examination of the work. The record
er was instructed to notify the Port-
lana ltanway, L,ignt s. rower cuiu

Save Your Eyes
Your eyes are your breadwinners take care of
them. If they need help, help - them and help them
quickly.
Scientists say that out of every hundred people to
day, not more than two have perfectly normal eyes.
Of the other ninety-eight many go through life with
poor vision and never know it They don't know what
really good eyesight is.
Others suffer for years from incorrect eyestrain in
which wearing of proper lenses would entirely remove.
If your eyes tire easily if you experience discom
fort when looking at small objects if things" appear to
"swim" and "blur" if your eyes are no longer equal to
the work o" the day they are in trouble, and need help.
Do not delay and run the risk of more serious trou
ble. Long experience enables us to give troubled eyes
just the help they need. All work done by an expert
