THE MORNING OREGONIAN," THURSDAY, APRIL 10, 1902. 1! BLANCHE WALSH INJURED STEPS FROM A SIDEWALK AXD FALLS TWENTY FEET. Accident Occur While Walking From the Stage Door of the What com Theater to Her Carriage. SPOKANE-, Wash., April 9. Blanche Walsh, the noted actress now playing a series of engagements In the Pacific North west, met with a serious accident night before last at New Whatcom, Wash. While walking from the stage door of the theater to her carriage, she stepped from the sidewalk and fell a distance of 20 feet. She has canceled her dates at Everett arid North Yakima, and is now under the doctor's care at the Spokane Hotel in this city. Assurance Is given out that she will be able to play her en gagement here, beginning tomorrow even ing. The injuries received by Miss Walsh consist of a badly bruised leg and shoul der. It Its considered little less than marvelous that she escaped with no broken bones, and indeed with her life. The sawdust which Is packed around the piles between which she fell Is thought to be accountable for her present good con oltlon. Mr. Robert Lowe, a member of the com pany, and formerly a physician, came on with the actress to this city, and he, in company with local physicians, is attend ing to her Injuries.

Peach Trees Injured. THE DALLES, Or., April 9.

Trees are now beginning to bloom in sheltered locali ties, showing that less damage than was feared has been done. Peach trees whose buds were regarded as dead are com mencing to blossom, the frost having only thinned the buds rather than de stroyed the crop. Unless some further damage occurs, the yield will be aver age. Cherries and apricots are also com ing into bloom. Frultraiscra throughout this section report a good outlook for the coming season.

Durbln, the Democratic Sheriff of Marlon County, and dele gate to the state convention, wants it distinctly understood that he Is not a candldateX for the nomination for State Treasurer, nor for any other office. He says his Democratic friends, assisted by some 300 of his Republican friends, have twice elected him Sheriff of Marlon County, and he feels that he ought not permit his name to he used. In connection with any other office at- this time. He savs he is going out of office in July, and will not ask a continuance of political favors, which have been very gratefully received In the past. Possibly Mr. Dur bln's conclusion has been influenced by doubts as to his chances of election. Judge T. L. Davidson, of Marion County, was talked of as a possible candidate for State Treasurer, but the Illness of his wife necessitated his going to California, and his friends thought best not to ask for his nomination. Determined to find fault with everything that comes from Republican hands, the Democrats yesterday expressed their dis approval of the clear, cold, sparkling water that is supplied by a Republican water commission from tho ley springs of Rull Run. They didn't say anything that might cause offense to their Republican brethren, but at every opportunity they expressed silent contempt' by drinking something else. It is rumored that tho platform may contain a plank advocating subsidies for the growers of rye. Lark Bllyeu, of Eugene, a delegate from Lane County, was around the hotel cor ridors all day yesterday. He Is an attor ney, and has been frequently mentioned '9&r'pr v"?A Peter H. D'Arcy, of Marion County. as a possible Democratic nominee for Attorney-General. He Is a member of the great Bilyeu family, which kept the census-taker busy up In the forks of the San tiam, in Linn County. Half the people of Linn County can trace some relation ship by blood or bymarrlage to the Bllyeu family. Both the Republicans and Demo crats in Linn County always make it a point to put up a ticket that will not dis please any considerable number of the Bilyeus. J. J. Whitney, of Albany, was one of the first of the Linn County delegation to arrive upon the scene of the Democratic love feast. Judge Whitney was one of the prominent Democratic members of the last Legislature. He always goes to the state convention of his party, and usually as a delegate. In all the many years that he has lived in Linn County he has never been a delegate to the county convention. He says he always lets the other boys settle the questions that arise within the party, and then he gets out and supports the ticket they put up. He has served one term as County Judge, two terms as Prosecuting Attorney, and has served three times in the Legislature. He is not a candidate for any office, nor Is he any relative to J. R. Whitney, of Albany, who Is a candidate for State Printer on the Republican ticket. Senator William Smith, of Baker County, arrived in Portland early in the day yes terday and was warmly greeted by those who were upon the ground before him. He will be renominated In the Senatorial dis trict composed of Baker, Malheur and Harney Counties, and will have J. L. Rand for an opponent. In the State Senate Smith was always a stickler for preclse ness in the use of language in proposed laws. So far as possible he gave every bill ciose scrutiny, to see that Its word ing expressed its meaning, and In this way he securedthe correction of many errors that might afterwards have caused trou ble. If the platform-builders today aro not careful to fay just what they mean, and say It In language that everybody will understand, It may be expected that there will be a suggestion from Smith of Baker. P. H. D'Arcy and D. J. Fry were regis tered at the Imperial frcm Salem on Mon day. Owing to business pressure, Mr. Fry has not yet arrived, but will come Lark Bllyeu, of Eugene. down from the capital today. D'Arcy and Fry are old-time members of the crowd of Democrats known as the "Little Giants." They are not delegates to this convention, but are on the ground to watch the proceedings. Incidentally, they are working for the nomination of John A. Jeffrey for Joint Senator between Ma rion and Linn. John Gray, another Salem Democrat who has stood up for" his party's principles for many, many years, is also in the city, and is helping the Jeffrey boom. George E. Chamberlain returned from Salem yesterday morning, and was around the hotel corridors for a short time last evening. He did not attend the Demo cratic caucus, evidently feeling confident that his interests were safe in a crowd of men who are all agreed upon giving him a nomination. He presented the glad hand to many delegates and talked everything but politics. Among the youngest -delegates is Charles V. Galloway, of Yamhill County. He is a son of Hon. William Galloway, himself a life-long Democrat. Young Galloway is a prunegrower, and takes an active interest in public affairs. He was Indorsed by the Tillamook county convention for Joint Representative from Tillamook and Yam hill Counties. When seen last evening, Mr. Galloway declined to discuss his can didacy. The name of Henry Blackman, of Hepp ner, formerly Collector of Internal Reve nue for the district of Oregon, has been, suggested as a candidate for the position of State Treasurer. Friends of State Senator J. W. Morrow, of Heppner, have urged him to accept the nomination for Congress against Hon. J. N. Williamson. Mr. Morrow says that he does not care to accept the nomination, as business affairs will not permit his making such a campaign as should be made. His name has also been suggested for the nomination for Secretary of State. Pago at the Coronation. NEW YORK. April 9. A son of John B. Sargent, the famous American portrait painter, has been appointed one of the pages who will attend tho Queen at the coronation, says a London dispatch to the American and Journal. The page will hold Her Majesty's train la Jha procesjloa. MAX MULLER ARRIVES CLEVER BALLPLAYER TO BEGIN PRACTICE WITH PORTLAND. Number of Other Players Also Came In Who Are Headed for Oher Cities of the Leagae. "Home Run" Max Muller, the crack left-fielder of the Portland baseball team, arrived from San Francisco yesterday morning, and is ready to assist In the winning of new laurels for Portland. Mul ler spent the entire Winter in California, and appears to be in fine trim. In com pany with Muller were a number of other players, who were headed for other cities of the Northwest League. The party spent the forenoon In the city, leaving on the 2 P. M. train over the Northern Pa cific. Among these players were "Famer Tom Kelly, who goes to pitch for Butte; "Kid" Kelly Henry Reltz, and McLauch len, on their way to Spokane; and Hutch inson, Tacoma's first-baseman. The eight members of the Portland team who are now In the city enjoyed a good practice at the.Y. M. C. A. gymnasium yesterday afternoon, and followed their work by a few games of handball and a swim In the new tank. Hupp, the new third-baseman, is expected from the East tonight, and Van Buren and Witbeck to morrow. Prises for Gun Club. Three handsome ellver cigar cases are displayed In tho window of the sporting department of the Honeyman Hardware Company which aro offered as handicap prizes by the Multnomah Rod and Gun 'Club, to be shot for at their weekly shoots at Irvlngton grounds. The competition is open to all comers ag well as to members of the club. The terms are that each com pstltor shall be allowed 25 shots each wesk, and thooe making the highest score at the end of the season will receive the cases as first, second and third prizes. As the cases are toth beautiful and valuable, there will doubtless be many sportsmen entering the contest, and the members of the club will have to look to their laurels Or outsiders may carry them off. Portland Academy Baseball. The students of the Portland Academy have organized a baseball team for the coming season, with Harry Lltt as cap tain and L. A. McArthur as manager. Practice has already commenced, and about 25 candidates arr turning out each afternoon for regular practice. A practice game has been arranged with the Van couver High School, to be played in Van couver next Saturday. Baseball enthu siasm , is running high at the academy, and $150 has already been raised to equip the team and pay the other necessary ex penses. Professor H. H. Hcrdman, Jr., will act as coach throughout the season. A large schedule of games will be ar ranged. Entries for Dog Show. Entries for the dog ehow are coming in rapidly, and It is quite likely that there' will be from 450 to 500 on exhibition when the doors open next Wednesday. Dog owners In all parts of the Pacific North west, and some from California, have sent In entries, and there will be some SCO dogs from this city alone. Never before has such an Interest been taken In the annual bench show as Is now being manl- Mftfdfii (MtsJSSP Health will come with all its blessings to those who know the way, and it is mainly a ques tion of right-living, with all the term implies, hut the efforts which strengthen the system, the games which refresh and the foods which nourish are important, each in a way, while it is also advantageous to have knowledge of the best methods of promoting freedom from unsani tary conditions. To assist nature, when nature needs assistance, it is all important that the medicinal agents used should bo of tho best quality and of known value, and the one remedy which acts most beneficially and pleasantly, as a laxative, is Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. "With a proper understanding of the fact that many physical ills are of a transient char acter and yield promptly to the gentle action of Syrup of Figs, gladness and comfort come to the heart, and if one would remove the torpor and strain and congestion attendant upon a con stipated condition of the system, take Syrup of Figs and enjoy freedom from the aches and pains, the colds and headaches and the depression due to inactivity of the bowels. In case of my organic trouble it is well to consult a competent physician, but when a laxative is required remember that the most permanently gratifying results will follow personal cooperation with tho beneficial effects of Syrup of Figs.
