"I don't blarne the hoboes for catch
ing the first freight that comes, their
way after I had tramped the three
miles from New Era down to Canemah
and slid all over the tracks that had
just been filled with gravel," declared
Chief of Police Ed Shaw, last night.
"I wouldn't walk the rails on a bet
any more, and I've had all that 1
want of it. The next bo thaU comes
along and hikes into the freight cars
will get my sympathy hereafter. I
know now what it is to slide ever
gravel traps and drop back three steps
to every two that you make forward."
Chief Shaw and Sheriff Mass got
the sidelights on the life of a tramp
when they walked from New Era the
other n;ght after a man who had stol
en some clothes out of the Cliff
House. They had received reports
that he had started up the track and
they went out after him.

HEART OF MAN MAY BE
- REACHED THROUGH COOKERY
CHICAGO, Sept. IS. A plan which
he declared wiV. curb the divorce evil,
improve the digestion, increase the
happiness of Chicago and add $10,000
a year to the county treasury was sug
gested to the county board yesterday
by County Clerk Sweitzer.
Sweitzer pressnted an offer of a lo
cal publishing house to pay the clerk
25 cents each for handing each appli
cant for a marriage license one of its
cook books.
"Many of the prospective brides
have little knowledge of domestic sci
ence, Sweitzer wrote to the board:
"This may be the cause of much do
mestic infelicity and any means that
will aid the new wife in the prepara
tion of mea's should be encouraged
heartily.
"This may be the remedy sought
by various reform bodies seeking a
means of eliminating or at least curb
ing the divorce evil."
He added that tie partnership
would add $10,000 yearly to the coun
ty treasury.

Pretty Stories of Love and War Might
be Told of Harvest of-Valley's
Priceless Annual Hop
- Crops
"That the Willamette Valley is pos
sessed of widely diversified employ
ment for persons seeking pleasant
out-door work in gathering- the vari
ous crops of fruit and products, can
not be gainsaid' says Secretary Frey
tag. - "Beginning in fate May and run
ning through a large part of the sum
mer, there is work for large numbers
of .persons, and work which proves a
recreation for persons who find their
tasks indoors tiresome, and which is
neither arduous nor difficult and
brings the roses to the cheek, and a
healthy and coming appetite.
"Strawberries come firsts and a nor
mal season picking begins the latter
part of May and runs for a month or
six weeks, followed by raspberries
and loganberries, the latter in some
sections of the valley being raised on
comparatively large tracts for can
ning, 'evaporating or drying; a good
trade in Alaska and the middle west
ern states where fruits are not raised
having been established. Other small
fruits such as cherries are carefully
packed and are exported to France to
be made into Maraschino cherries,
some of these cherries finding their
way back to their native heath. The
Royal Anne cherries raised in some
parts of the valley are used exclusive
ly for this purpose. They are pre
served and shipped in large casks to
France, where the final ' process is
completed.
Season's Lull.
"During the lull! between the sea
son of the small fruits and the great
event of the year hop picking, many
persons take a few weeks off- at one
of the beaches, where there is fish
ing and hunting, rock oysters to be
dug, clams and crabs to go after, and
surf bathing and agate hunting to be
enjoyed. Or it may be a trip is made
to the mountains where blackberries
and great luscious huckleberries, big
as cherries, are gathered and canned
ofr winter use. Or some one prefers
a trip up cr :iovn the Willamette or
Columbia rivers. One must indeed be
difficult to please if he cannot find
some delightful trip for the mid-summer.
,
Fall Amusements.
"WTith the opening days of Septem
ber, comes the exodus of town folk to
the hop yards of the Willamette Val
ley for their annual outing, and money
getting feast; for this is one way of
taking a vacation and not coming
home ,'broke as is usually the case
with most vacation trips.
"For long weeks whole families
have been planning for the good times
when hop picking begins; old gar
ments are religousjy put away during
the year to be gotten out and used in
the yard during picking, and as the
time draws near the tents are gotten
out and the rest of the camping out
fit over-hauled in readiness for the
great occasion.
Curley-Haired
Baby Softens
Man's Heart
"I'm ever so thankful to you," said
a pretty little blue-eyed baby girl wkh
the nicest brown wavy hair as she
looked up into the eyes of the make
up man on the Enterprise and thanked
him for returning to her the valuable
necklace of pumpkin seeds that, one
had lost the day before during her
play.
Better than the $50,000 reward that
Mrs. W. K. Vanderjnlt had offered for
the return of her lost necklace were
the words of that little five-year-old
girl as she told the printer just how
much she valued that necklace that
she had strung herself and how it
had broken her heart when she dis
covered that it was' lost.
"The way that she said that to me
and the look that she had in. those
pretty little eys of hers, that were
turned up to mine, was worth more
than any $50,000 reward that could
be given ma," said the printer, as he
told the story afterwards. VI could
not have had a greater reward had
the necklace been the pearl studded
one of the Vanderbilts."
JUST TOO LATE
Just too late to become mixed up
in the county health office muddle,
Dr. E. M. Bond arrived in this city
last week. He had opened offices at
1007 Main stet and is prepared to
take an interest in every important
move made by the city doctors or
Judge Anderson.
Dr. Bond says that, although he has
not looked into the matter as closely
as he will, he believes that both sides
are somewhat mistaken and he
thinks that a peaceful settlement can
be arranged.
The new doctor is a former resi
dent of Philadelphia, and a graduate
of Hahnemann college of that place.
He has made a specialty of children's
diseases, and is considered an author
ity on the subject.
Dr. Bond has had an opportunity
to look, the city over and thinks this
is a growing town with a bright fu
ture. IT PAYS TO ADVERTISE
That it pays to advertise and
advertise heavily in the columns
of the newspapers, is shown by
the wonderful increase in busi
ness in tie store of Frank Busch
during the last few days when he
carried large displays in the col
umns of THE ENTERPRISE and
has, in a tactful and forceful way.
presented his claims for business
to the people of the city and
county.
As a result, his store has been
crowded to its capacity and his
clerks have been busy every min
ute of their working hours, dis
posing of the goods that he has
offered and attending to the de
livery of the furniture that has
been bought. The sidewalks have
been lined with his goods ready
for delivery to all paris of the
city and county, bought as the re
sult of the heavy display ads that
he has carried in THE ENTER
PRRISE. Certainly, it pays to advertise.

are going to teach, seven to work.,
five go on to college, five to normal
school, one to be a nurse, and one to

choose the teaching profession as
their work.
Those who intend to take up this
work are: Genevieve Mlumpowsr,
Hazel Kurr, Clara Rutherford, Echo
Spence, Marie Barber, Grace Snook,

To Save For
Wife's Need
A member of a disorganized troupe
that had gone "broke" in Seattle, he
had walked all of the way from that
city to town and was planning to
make the journey to Eugene where
he would meet his wife.
That was the story that a man
whom Night Officer Lee French found
on the track coming into the city told
when the policeman accosted him the
other night. Rather than . spend a
cent for carfare and ha vp hia wifo dif
fer for lack of funds when he reached
home, he intended to walk all of the
distance from Seattle to his home in
Eugene and to turn up there wit,h
every cent saved ready to divide with
her.
HOG FAMILIES WILL

uver $o00 in cash prizes " will ho
competed for by hogs at the Clack
amas County Fair, to be held at Can-
by, beptember 24, 25, 26 and 27: and
it is expected thafthe displays will
prove conclusively the lleadine rank
of the county in the northwest as a
producer of swine. Clackamas, as a
matter of fact, sends more swine to
market than any other Oregon coun
ty; and hogs bred here are in demand
for foundation stock throughout Wash
ington, Idaho and California. Several
stock farms in the county make a
specialty of blooded stock, and these
will all have representative and valu
able herds on view.
The display will include Duroc Jer
seys, Berkshires, Poland Chinas, Ches
ter Whites, Yorkshires and Essex
hogs, and special, divisions -will be
made for fat barrows, full-growth
boars and sows, little pigs, and vis
families. There will be a number of
sweepstake contests, limited to prize-
wmmng animals in the different
classes, and many special prizes and
banners will be awarded to the win
ners in these extra contests.
NEW HAVEN STOCK LOSES
MILLIONS BY SLUMP
NEW YORK, Sept. IS A break of
'z points in the stock of the New
York, New Haven & Hartford Rail
road on the Stock Exchange today car
ried the price down to 85, a new
low record. - At 85 the stock showed
a loss of six points since the close of
last week. It was 44 3-8 points under
the higli price of the year, reached
on January 10. The depreciation in
market value represented by this de
cline is nearly $70,000,000.
The stock raV.ied a point after
touching 85 and no more offerings
were pressed for sale.
The long decline in the shares, ex
tending back more than a year, grew
out of the various difficulties, finan
cial and otherwise, of the New Haven
system, and the reduction in the div
idend from eight to six per cent. The
intimation given recently by Howard
Elliott, newly-elected head of the sys
tem, that a further reduction might
be deemed advisable, is believed to
have been a factor in the' renewed de
cline. DON'T GET LEFT ON

FIREMAN RUNS AMUCK AND
KILLS WIFE AND WATCHMAN
EVERETT, Wash., Sept. 18. W. R.
Schrader. a fireman, shot and killed
his wife at t.heir home here last night
and then shot and seriously wounded
Patrolman George Tift, who was
called by neighbors to arrest Schrader.
Tift was shot through the neck and
his collarbone was broken. After
shooting the policeman, Schrader es
caped. Schrader was arrested last
week on complaint of his wife. It is
supposed that when he returned home
last night, after serving a brief sent
ence in jail, they quarreled over the
previous trouble.
Early this morning the body of J.
Davis, a shingle mill watchman, was
found, horribly burned in the fire pit
at the mill. A bullet hole was in
Davis' skull, and statements of people
in the vicinity, who said they saw a
man answering, the description of .
Schrader running by there shortly be
fore Davis was killed, caused the po
lice to believe that Davis had inter
fered with Schrader's flight and was
killed by him.
The Moro Observer notes with pride
that according to the assessor's re
turns, Sherman county has more auto
moblies and fewer dogs than in 1912.
