CIRCUS QUERY
STILL PUZZLE
(Continued from Page 1.)
The sheriff is of the opinion that
the deputy district attorney has
"put one over" on him. In fact he
said that the opinion did not give
him very much enlightenment. So
the sheriff has determined to ciimb
up on the fence, as the saying is, and
lt the question rest mostly with the
throe oMec'ing ministers, who don't
.van' Sunday al". messed up with a
v. west circus..
"If they want to stop the circus,
let" them swear out a complaint,"
said the sheriff, "and get some war
ran a. If the warren's are given me,
of course I'll serve hem. But as the
circus is billed in here Sunday, and
as it may be difficult to get warrants
on Sunday, and as it may be more
difficult for them to swear to- the
complaint before the alleged crime
is committed. I guess the people' who
are goins to obie"t vi this thing will
be in about as bad a fix as I'm in."
Saturday an advance man for. the
performance visited the county clerk,
and obn.ined a county license to
show his wonders next Sunday. He
paid ral money for the license, and
stipulated that it was to be good for
Sunday, August ?. County -Clerk
Mulvey said that he supposed the ad
vance man knew what he wanted,
and so he issued the license.
Further troubles for the show peo
ple are due to develop when they ap
proach the city authorities for per
mission to have a "monster, free
street parade just "before the show"
through Oreson City's business sec
tion. The show itself will be out
side the city limits, but the man
agers dRsire to naradc beforehand to
draw a crowd. Mayor Jones says he
rather doubts the propriety of a cir
cus parade on Sunday, and intimates
that he will not issue a permit for
such a pageant.
Taken all in a'l, the coming show
seems to have a troublous path
ahead of it. But it is getting a fine
lot of free avertising, anyway.
SCHOOLMATE FROM EAST
AND WEST MEET AGAIN
Dr. John S. Strauss, of Chicago,
who is on a tour of the Pacific North
west as a summer vacation, was the
guest over Sunday of Judge Gordon
E. Hayes. . The doctor and the judge

a great time recalling old times while
enjoying each other's company. The
Chicagoan congratulated his former
playmate on having picked such a
progressive city for his home, and
spoke in the highest terms of this
section of the country. Sunday even
ing he left for San Francisco, to con
tinue his trip.

chief and constable found Mr. Erick.
son ancl an empty quart bottle of
Dort wine sitting sid-e by side on the
front porch. Appearances indicated
that the contents of the bottle had in
some manner gotten transferred to
Erickson's interior. Erickson, asked
what the trouble was, replied that
there wasn't anv trouble at all, as
bis wife had left him.- The officers
"frisked" their man, and drew from
his pockets a sawed-off revolver- of
medium cnlibre, neatly loaded with
huPets and had been cut down to fit
the weapon.
While thev were seeking further in
formation Mrs. Erickson arrived and
asked the officers to "stand by"
while she went into the house and
eathered up her effects. This they
did. and the wife later reapneared
cprryinsr various necessities, and de
clared that she would swear out a
complaint against Erickson Mpnday.
She declared thnt he hd threatened
to shoot her. Keeping Erickson's re
volver. the officers departed.

ART VERSUS LOVE
BREAKS UP HOME
Charging that his wife told him
she "was never meant to be mar
ried," and that she "preferred to be
an artist to raising a family," and
that on May 1 she had told him that,
she was going away to Canada and
never coming back, W. E. Samuels,
of Rainier, Oregon, has. filed suit in
the superior court here for divorce
from Florence Samuels, to whom he
was married in Cen'.ralia, Washing
ton, October 29, 1911.
In his complaint Samuels sets
forta that there has been one child
born of their marriage, and that four
weeks after the babe was born his
wife left him and the child and went
10 Centralia. He complains that en
account of this -he had to stay away
from his business and nurse the
baby, and also had to employ a physi
cian to keep if alive. On February
13, 1912. Mrs.' Samuels returned to
live with him, and the couple moved
to Rainier, where they lived happily
for one week.
Mrs. Samuels then expressed "a
cold indifference to him and his
child," and packed up her baggage
and went to Chehalis. On May last
Samuels followed her there and imr
plored her to return and live with
him; and it was then, he states, that
his wife felt the combined call of art
and Canada and left him, adding as
a parting word that she "wanted to
get where even' his name could not
follow her."

I. C. S. An Ethical Power
Now, gentlement, just for a moment, I would speak to you, not as
an educationalist, but as a preacher of manhood and a lover of his '
kind. 1 The question of the use of alchohol by the student when study
ing, has carried me back to the thought. The International Correspond
ence Schools are not simply educational, they are ethical; they not
only make foremen and craftsmen and draftsmen, but they make
MEN in capital letters. For you can never awaken any one to his
commerciaJ! possibilities without stirring up all other possibilities so
cial, patriotic, philanthropic, intellectual, moral. The moment you suc
ceed breaking up one area of inertia you set -vibration moving through
every part of the being and all kinds of dormant and stagnant powers
are set into healthy motion. When a man's mind gets engrossed with
an intellectual occupation and he finds that he has a grip upon the
laws and forces or the universe, the saloon, the vulgar and degrading
cow, the curb-stone loafing, and the hours of inane and ribald waste
all seem to be unworthy of him and his self-respect clothes him in a
protective armor which helps to keep his entire manhood inviolate. A
great American preacher used to speak much about "the expulsive pow
er of a new affection," and, having as your life work the duty of both
supplying and developing this "new affection" the love cf the best, by
which the unworthy and base will be expelled, perhaps unconsciously
but surely, from many and many a man. Success to you in your work!
The Trained Man Never Worries
When the chiefs' put their heads together to hire or "fire," the
trained .man doesn't worry. . He knows that there is always a place for
him. , -
You can look your job and every man in the face if you possess the
training so much in demand everywhere today. The International
Correspondence Scnools will go to you in your spare time, whereever
you live, and will train you to become an expert in your chosen line
of work. Such a training will forever take you off the "anxious" seat.
It costs you nothing to find how the'I. C. S. can help you. .Mark

COMMERCIAL CLU
MAY MOVE ROOMS
The commercial club has been of
fered quarters in the new Busch
building, at Main and E'eventli street,
and officers of the organization are
seriously considering moving. The
new quarters embrace a banquet hall,
lounge rooms and library, and a sup
erb balcony overlooking one of the
most beautiful stretches of the Wil
lamette river; and it is reported that
members of the organization are
most favorably impressed with the
idea of moving from the present quar
ters in the Masonic block
It was reported about the Commer
cial club Mpnday evening that one
reason why the change of . quarters
might be considered advisable was
that the local Masonic lodge had tak
en no action as yet towards renewing
the lease of the present quarters, and
in fact, was considering increasing
the rental for them if a new lease
was to be signed. E. A. Chapman,
master of the lodge, would make no
statement in regard to the matter be
yond saying that it had not been de
termined to increase the rental.

One of the most disastrous fires whic has occurrad since the famous Triangle fire is the burning of the
Binghamton Cloihing company, at B inghamton, New York, in which it ii estimated that 75 girls lost their
lives, and only 38 out of all persons i n ths building escaped unhurt. The president of the company attributes
the cost of the fire to the carelessne ss of an employee in throwing a lighted cigarette under a stairway. Dis
trict attorney. Meagher has started a n investigation to place the responsibility.

They send acrass the twilight

A cheery word to hearts who

THREE MILL LIMIT
purs pun
Completing its labors Monday
night, the charter committee of West
Linn believes that it has achieved a
point gained by no other city of the
same size in the United States. The
ona feature which is calculated to
make the proposed west side muni
cipality a particularly desirable resi
dence place for home sskers is the
provision in its charter which keeps
thi city taxes for a'l purposes at a
maximum of three milis.
At the assessed valuation of the
property to be included in West Linn,
the three mill maximum tax wiil
yield from $7,500 to ?10,000 annually
for its many important business func
tions. It is expected that the elec
tion of August 14 will show the peo
ple in the remainder - of Clackamas
county that there is one place where
the people are of one mind. They
have "Power, Prayroll and Prosper
ity," and mean to keep their slogan
literally.
People of the proposed city of
West Linn have already, at teir mass
meeting, voted unanimously to annex
the city of Willamette to their terri
tory as soon as the laws of the state
will permit, thus making a solid econ
omical unit on the west short of the
river from Sucker Creek to the Tualatin.
