WILLIAM THOMPSON HAS DES
" PERATE ENCOUNTER WITH
PET WHILE FISHING
NET USED TO PREVENT MAULING
Irvine Kinney Also Attacked by Ca
nine Near His Home Latter
Case Not Regarded as
One of Danger
William Thompson, 12 years old,
the son of I. N. Thompson, and Irvine
Kinney, 10 years old, were bitten by
dogs Tuesday, and fears are enter
tained for their contracting hydro
phobia. The Thompson boy was bitten by
his own dog, a Spitz, and was only
saved from a serious mauling by the
infuriated animal through his quicK
wit.
The lad was craw-fishing at Park
place at the time and when the dog
attacked him threw his crawfish
scoop-net over the beast's head, and
so managed to entangle it until he
could beat it away with a heavy hook.
As it was his hand was bitten through
and badly torn.
The Kinney child was bitten by a
dog owned by W. W. Laurie. He was
playing with the animal in front of
his home at 108 Seventeenth street,
and it is said by neighbors that the
child was snatching away from the
dog some stick or other object with
which it was playing, and that the an
imal unintentionally bit him in an ef
fort to recover its plaything.
Both children were hurried to the
offices of surgeons, and their wounds
thoroughly cleansed and dressed.
They were taken to their homes. The
two dogs were secured by the police
and impounded, whera they will be
kept at least ten days for observation.

LONG PLEASURE TRIP
PLANNED BY MEINDLS
Fred J. Meindl and Mrs. MeindL of
Sellwood, left Tuesday evening for a
trip through St. Louis, Chicago, Al
bona, Iowa, Minneapolis, Winnepeg,
Colorado Springs and Vancouver, B.
C. They will be absent about a
month. Mr. Msindl has been named
as a delegate from Multnomah lodge,
Woodmen of the World, and while
away will attend the grand lodge con
vention. Mr. Meindl, who is well known in
Portland as an attorney, was for
many years a resident of this city,
and both he- and his wife have a host
. of friends here. During their absence
in the East their children will remain
with Mr. and Mrs. George Lazelle,
their grandparents.
The Embarrassment
of Ignorance
A group of women were sitting
on a hotel porch discussing came
soles. "I have one of chiffon-cloth,"
said one woman.
"Mine is point d'esprit, I think
it is so much daintier," said an
other. "Mine has the cutest little rose
buds on it," said a third. And so
the stream of comments ran on.
Finally a new voice joined in
with the question, ' What are you
all talkin? about? What is a
camesole?"
Every face was turned towards
the questioner. The gtntle stream
changed to a torrent of inquiries.
"Don't you know? Where have
you been? Where are your eyes?
Havent you read the papers?"
etc.
There is nothing so embarras
sing to a woman as finding her
self ignorant of some new thing
that her friends are not only dis
cussing but wearing. If this
woman had read, the advertise
ments of the good newspapers
regularly she could never have
overlooked the existence of came-'
soles.
Do you know what camesoles
are? If you don't you may find
yourself in her position at any
moment. Better begin now to
read the advertising columns reg
ularly so that you won't be caught
in a similar predicament on that
or. any other subject of apparel.

THEY have learned the art of destroying railroads in Mexico down to a
fine point. This picture proves it. It shows what happened to a one
track branch line before the Constitutionalists got through with it.
They set fire to the ties and twisted the hot rails out of shape, just as
the boys in blue used to bend rails in the south into the initials "TJ. S." during
Sherman's march to the sea. By this method of putting the railroads out of
business the revolutionists in Mexico have caused the federals much trouble
and have been able to block advances and cut off communication. Many
thought Huerta would not hold his power long.
SQUAB
MEETS OPPOSITION
1
Efforts of parties from San Diego,
California, to secure ground Immedi
ately adjacent to the city reservoir
sito for a ranch on which they pro
pose to raise squab, ducks and geese,
are stirring residents of the neighbor
hood to protest. Thj Californians
have concluded that the climate of
Oregon City is particularly suitsd to
their aims, and have found the vacant
land they desire near the reservoir
site. Negotiations, it is said, are un
der way for its purchase.
Residents living nearby naturally
object to a poulary farm in their local
ity, but aside from this point out that
such an establishment near the city
reservoir soon to be constructed
would be liable to furnish a source of
contamination for the drinking wa
ter. No definite action to defeat the
aims of the Californians has yet been
taken, but it is said that in the near
future formal protest against ths plan
will be made:
Efforts havsi been made to interest
local capital in the scheme, but so far
the promoters are 1 eported to have
had but poor sucess. Oregon City
men doubt the profits to be attained,
and also believe that a more rural lo
cation would be better for the poul
try farm than the one proposed.

SHERIFF MASS AND DEPUTIES
TAKE SIX PRISONERS AT
ISLAND FOR TOM KAY
CONSTABLE FROST HAS HARD FIGHT
Frenchman With Four-inch Knife Ob
jects Briefly to Being Put Un
der Arrest Alleged
Parasites Taken
A raid, on a colony of alleged par-i
asites, engineered by Tom Kay, spe-;
cial state deputy, and pulled off un
der management cf Sheriff E. T. Mass
and deputies, Tuesday night netted a
total of six prisoners, two women and
four men. The raid was upon, four
houses, all of which were well stock
ed with liquors and beer, and which
have been objects of suspicion to res
idents of Island, a suburb of Milwau
kie, for some weeks past. Incident to
the raid Constable Jack Frost, of Ore
gon City, had a hand-to-hand tussle
with a Frenchman carrying a four-
inch knife; but aside from this there
was no violencs or trouble.
Sheriff Mass and his deputies met
Tom Kay and some Portland deputies
by appointment at Island station at
eight o'clock last evening. There
the party divided into two sections,
one under the lead of Sheriff Mass
raiding two houses that set well bac'.;
in the community, and taking two
prisoners; and the other, under the
lead of Tom Kay himself, raiding two
cottages on the river bank. Soon af
ter the raid started it became appar
ent that a warning of some nature
had been given, for many of the men
it was expected to catch had depart
ed, leavings behind them many person
al belongings in their -haste, as well
as the large supply of liquor. Resi
dents of the suburb told the officers
that if they had been half an hour
sooner they would have bagged the
entire outfit, said to number about 24.
Tom Kay's party, which included
Constable Jack Frost, made their way
to.the river bnak, where they raided
two cattages, both of them embower
ed in roses and attractive in the ex
treme from the outside. One was
found to be entirely empty, and the
other showed signs of recent occupa
tion, supper being still cooking on the
stove, and water running in the sink.
Down on the riVer bank, behind this
cottage, two men and two women
were sitting fishing and as the offi
cers approached they made no move
to get away. All were placed under
arrest.
One of the men who later gave his
name as Andre Gabot, but who car
ried a fishing license bearing the
name G. Massit, said that he had a
perfect right to fish, and showed his
license. Constable Frost told him he
was not arrested for fishing, and
thereupon the man began to prate of
his "rights" and demanded further in
formation. The display of a warrant
did not satisfy him, and when Con
stable Frost took him by the shoulder
and endeavored to bring him along,
he showed fight. The struggle was
short-lived, in spite of the fact that
the man attempted to use a knife
bearing a four-inch -blade.
" The other man in the party surren
dered without any fuss, but the wom
en, who were in a boat, invited the
deputies to come and get them. Dep
uty Sheriff Miles promptly did so,
though at one time his fellow officers
expected to be called upon to pull him
out of the river. The party was final
ly rounded up, and with Gassit hand
cuffed, went back to Island station,
thre to await the arrival of the group
under Sheriff Mass. When they join
ed the first party all hands took the
car for Oregon City where the pris
oners were booked and locked up for
the night, the womea being placed in
tlie city jail.
Those arrested gave their names
as: Adrean LeBeau, L. Lane, Julian

CARDINAL GIBBONS 80;
HAS HAD VARIED LIFE
BALTIMORE, Md., July 22. Car
dinal Gibbons will enter upon . his
eightieth year tomorrow, having been
born July 23, 1834. His eminence was
ordained in 1861 and began his priest
ly labors as curate at St. Patrick's
church, Fells Point, Baltimore. Six
weeks later he was appointed pastor
of a church at ocust Point. This
was his only experience as pastor.
Those were trying days for the young
priest, the first days i the civil war,
but he performed his duty faithfully
and regularly.
He served as chaplain of Fort Mc
Henry, wrhich was then used not only
as a fort, but also as a prison for
Confederates. " As a result of his
good work he was appointed, four
years later, secretary to Archbishop
Spalding of Baltimore. Thencefor
ward honors and promotions came to
him rapidly. In 1868 he waS conse
crated bishop of Adramyttum. Four
years later he was transferred from
the vicariate of North Carolina to
the bishopric of Richmond. In May,
1877, lie became coadjutor archbirip
or Baltimore ana a tew montns later
he succeeded to the see. In 1886 he
was -created cardinal..
ED MARTIN PEEVES
F
Ed Martin, who juggles ties when
they are in rafts for shipment, want
ed a match Tuesday night, and butted
into a local cigar store to get one.
Not being waited on as rapidly as he
thought necessary, he expressed his
opinion of the tobacconist and Pa
trolman Lee French, who happened
to be passing, suggested that he mod
erate his language.
Martin replied that he was an Am
erican citizen and could conduct him
self as -he pleased under the provi
sions of the Constitution. Later he
dared the officer to put him in jail.
French took the dare, and after just
a little bit of a scrap landed his man
behind the bars. In the meantime the
fracas had attracted the attention of
Deputy Sheriff Eddy and some other
officers on the street, and by the
time Martin and French arrived at
the city bastile there were sufficient
officers around to quell an I. W. W.
riot.
Martin thought better of it when
he say the cell yawning for his recap
tion, and put up $25 cash bail for his
freedom. A disorderly conduct
charge will be pressed against him if
he appears in court.
FIVE GOVERNORS
IN YEAR; RECORD
LITTLE ROCK, Arlc, jUly 22. The
state campaign in Arkansas closed to-
dftv. . Tomorrow thf vntpra will hp-
lect a governor to su.-ceed J. M. Fut -
rell, who has been filling the vacancy
canai hv thn resifrnaMon of finvcr -
nor Joseph T. Robinson, now United
States senator.
The Democratic candidate for the'mel1 wno saw active service during
governorship is Judge George W.
Miys, of Camden, and his election is
generally conceded. Judge Hays is
opposed by Harry H. Myers, the Re
publican candidate, and George W.
Murphy, the nominee of the Progres
sive party.
. Tomorrow's election will give Ar
kansas the rather unique distinction
of -having five governors in 1913.
The unusually large number of execu
tives is due to the fact that hereto
fore Arkansas has had no lieutenant
governor to succeed to the governor
ship in case of a vacancy. The presi
dent of the state senate has - bean
called upon to serve in the guberna
tional chair until a governor is ragu
larly elected.' The recent session of
the legislature took steps to provide
for the election of a lieutenant gov
ernor at the same time a governor is
elected, which is 6xpectd to obviate
the complications that have occurred
this year. - -

ED OLDS AND W. H. HAGE,MANN
FILE REQUEST FOR SPE
CIAL, ELECTION
PAPERS PUT DV AT LAST
f,748 Names On Appeal for Removal
of Judge Beatie; 1,720 Against
Commissioner N. Blair
Fight Welcomed
Petitions- for a recall . election
against County Judge R. B. Beatie
and County Commissioner N. Blair
were filed just before closing time on
the county clerk's office Tuesday af
ternoon, Edward Olda and W. H.
Hagamann presenting the petitions.
The petition asking for the recall of
County Judge Beatie carries 1,748
names, according to the men who fil
ed it; while" that asking the recall of
Commissioner Blair bears 1,720 signa
tures. County Clerk Mulvey has five days
in which to check over the names,
and if satisfied that the required num
ber are on the petitions, must then
call a recall election within 20 days.
There is no provision in the recall
amendment to the constitution which
provides that the county clerk must
check the names by the list of voters,
and County Clerk Mulvey says he'
probably will merely check them
over to see that thsre are no- dupli
cates or irregularities.
It is quite possible that before the
five days have elapsed some sort of
court action will be instituted to have
the names on the petitions carefully
examined and checked. Doubt as to
whether, under the law, woman vot
ers can sign the petition, will probab
ly be one of the questions taken up.
There are the names of many women
upon the petitions.
Those backing the recall movement,
while admitting that there may be a
rigid court inquiry and legal action in
the matter, say that they believe that
the result will be that the election
will be held. They profess a willing
ness to have a test case made of the
present movement, and say that they
will gladly see it carried to the su
preme court.
If REN WILL MOVE
FOR WOMEN'S LAW
With the decision 0. the supreme
court that the Day bill,, providing for
a- special referendum election on
measures passed by the last session
of the legislature, is constitutional,
W. S. U'Ren and other interested in
tiie "woman wage-workers' eight-hour
bill" will start mandamus proceedings
to force the secretary of state to
place this measure on the ballot at
the special -election to be held in this
November.
The bill in question was offered for.
filing with the secretary of state on
Jul 3, one day before the time limit on
measures-to be submitted to the peo
ple at the forUicoming election ex
pired. The secretary of state refus
ed to accept it for the ballot at that
time, but announced that he would ac
cept it and place it upon the ballot for
the regular elaction in 1914.
With the supreme court's action as
suring the holding of an election this
November, Mr. U'Ren will at once
start proceedings to get the bill be
fore the people at the first opportun
ity. The measure, submitted by Dr.
Marie Equi and Mrs. J. R. Oatman, is
alleged to have 15,000 signers.
