She said that the body was that of Miss Mary Eila Kelly, a former belle of LewistoD, Maine; and that an operation that causedMisa Kel ly's death wa9 performed by bb Eaet Boston physician whom she named, and that the crime was committed at a roadhouse near Plalstow, New Hampshire.'

The gov ernment lighthouse tender Manzan ita sank in 30 feet of water, in the Columbia river. at the lower end of Puget Sound, between Wesport and Waterfor at 7 o'clock last night. The accident occurred while ebe was coming down the river to help tike Columbia river lightship No. 50 off the beach at Fort Canby. Captain .Byrne was going to give- orders to anchor for the night when Esaw some vessel ahead and sig naled it to pass to port. He receiv ed no answer, but proceeded to pass as he bad indicated. Ihe vessel proved to be the Port of Portland tug John McCracken towing the dredge Columbia. The Manzan zita 'was too close to get out of the way of tne projecting suction pipe and it struck her in the middle of the starboard side, poking a big hole in her side. The Manzanita filled with water and went down in about five min utes. The crew was all saved. She disappeared all except the top of her stack and mast. The omcers thick she can be raised without much difficulty. Others say she cannot be raised without too great expense and it will be necessary to destroy her. TVillar Saved Represents Ten Dollars Earned.- The average man does not save to exceed ten per cent of his earnings. He must spend n!n dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he can not be too careful about unnecessary ex penses. "Very often a few cents properly in vested, like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dollars outlay later on.

Paul to increase the reward of $5,000 for the men who held -up the Great Northern train near Ballard Mon day night, to $0000 tor each one. This is done, it is said, not cause of the amount of money lust, which notwithstanding published accounts of its running into thous ands, is declared officially to have been only $704, but because the officials have determined to capture the men no matter what the cost may be. They feel that while such cool heads are at large no train is safe. The Pinkertons have satisfied themselves that Bill Miner and Jack Terry were not the men, as it has been established that they were in the northern part of the state on Monday night. Whether or not Miner had anything to do with the planning of the holdup, however, hae not been determined. As there are surposed to be sev en robbers in the gang, their cap ture means a reward of $35,ooo. The announcement has given fresh, stimulus to the case. as when he first tmounced lis dis covery of a new method oi treating diphtheria. It was decided to hold the next conuention in Washington 1908. The American delegates were in terested listeners to the statements. Later they were asked whether the present state of medical science held out the hope of a permanent cure for tuberculosis. Dr. Law rence Flick of Philadelphia, said: 'The present state of medical science holds out a good prospect of a permanent cure for tuberculosis when the disease is taken in its early stages.' This however, is not through a specific remedy, but by .proper alienation and open-air life. with exercises duly restricted.

More than 22a persons were killed, 25 of whom Paris, Oct. 7. At the closiog of the International Tuberculosis Con vention today,jProfesBor von Beh- riag made a statement relative to his new enrate principle for tuber culosis. Professor Bahring's state ment attracted much attention. D:stioguished medical men from (uony countries occupied the plat form and filled the enlon of the Grand Palace. The professor said: "In the course of the last two years l recognized with certainty the existence of a curative princi ple completely different from the anti-toxin principle. This new curative principle plays an initial role in the operation of the immun ity derived from my bovovaccine, which has proved effective against animal tuberculosis during the past four years. Ihis curative princi ple reposes upon the impregnation of the living cells of the organism with a substance originating from tubercuse virus, which substance I designate 'T. C ". Professor von Bahring then gave a lengthy technical description of how 'T. C." was introduced into the cellular organism and said it had already given marked, results in the treatment of animals. He expressed the confident belief that his researches would permit simil ar curative resultB in humans. He added that he was unable to say how soon positive results would be obtainable,, but he felt as certain that these results would be attained Tacoma, Wash... Oct. 7. Lela Baker, the 16 year old girl who ab ruptly deserted her ardent lover, Frank C. Brown, aged 28 years, two weeks ago, after the latter had reached the county auditor's office and had applied for a marriage li cenee now wants her would be hus band arrested on the charge of threatening her life. A warrant sworn to by the girl is in the hands of the police and an effort is being made to locate the man, who it esid attempted at the point of a revolver to make the girl agree to marry him. Miss Baker, when she myster iously disappeared on the day of her proposed marriage, September 25, went to Seattle, where she re mained for a tew days ago, when she returned here. She has since been employed as a waitress in a local restaurant. Brown who had been shipped out of Tacoma by the girl's father, also rtturnad here and had been conducting an inces- saut search for the girl, when he accidentally walked into the estab lishment where she wa3 employed and a sensational scene immediate ly followed. - Recognizing Miss Baker, Brown called to her to come to the uble where he was sea'ed. She obsyed. Brown caught the girl's left wrist, placed his right hand in his over coat pocket and half exposed a . re volver. "Now you come with me right away and we we'll be married an you promised." softly whispered Brown. "No foolishness this time,' or there will be something doing. '1 and the enraged man added severa curses to the threat. A loud scream uttered by the frightened girl brought several of the patrons to their feet. Miss Bakir broke away from the man's determined grip and ran behind the cashier's desk. In the interval which followed Brown managed (0 reach tha en trance door and ran down the street and the police have not been Whereas, at the last election held in this county the vote was taken upon the question of local option. Whereas, this county voted over whelmingly in favor of prohibition of the sale and usuage of intoxi cants as a beverage; and that vote was the declared will of the legal voters of the county and therenv became a law which went into f fect on the first of January last; and at which time all saloon men doing business in the county closed their houses of business and there by placed themselves on record as lawabiding citizens. Whereas, since this law became operative there has been organized a socalled Social and Athletic Club to defeat, intent and purpose of tb" local option law by continuing the liquor traffic in this county in an indirect and underhanded manner. Wherea, the organization and continuation nf euch club is in ef feet an effort to cause wilful dis regard for law and order, and make null and void the object and pow er of our democratic franchise and liberty, Whereas, the local option law has wun great favor in the county through its excellent results thu far with not a few of those who at first were opposed to it on lhc ground of injuring the business in terests of the county. Whereas, that the local sentiment is stronger than ever in favor of local option. Be it resolved, fiist, that the ministerial Association of Corvallia condemns communications sent to the public press elsewhere that are misleading as to the facts of the case.
