a deep cut on these charges.
Passenger traffic has been discouraged
by the railroad officials. The company has
two handsome coaches on its sidetracks
at L-yle, the river terminus of the line,
but has refused to send them over the
road to Goldendale. A boxcar Is doing
duty as a caboose, and such passengers
as desire to make the trip are carried in
each direction If they climb into the box
car. This method of travel, being much
faster than anything the people have ex
perienced heretofore, is a welcome Inno

Owing to the fact that the line has not
yet been put in first-class condition, the
company officials have not solicited freight
in either direction. They have only ac

that the shippers have been extremely
anxious to have forwarded to its destina

merchandise has been unusually large,
and the traffic In general suggests a heavy
trade.
Some time during the coming month It
is the intention of the stockholders in the
railroad to give a general excursion from
Portland to Goldendale. The Klickitat
Valley is naturally tributary to Portland,
and. In the Interests of close business re
lations between 'the two districts, the ex
cursion is planned. It is not the inten

thoroughly ballasted and made ready for

the distinction of being a fairly easy road

bed has been ballasted for Its entire dls

"Aside from the condition of the bar

can see no business reason, save that of
pernlcous inactivity on our part, why
Portland should not have that portion of

furnish aboard ship for the same or less

for Portland its share of such transport

STORY OF ITS LOSS IS AGAIN TOLD
IX COURT.
Leslie Merrill, "Who Wai Accused ot
Stealing; It, Claims Damages From
His AccBser.
The trial of the 55000 damage suit of
Leslie Merrill, IS yeara old, by his father.
Charles Merrill as guardian, against Fred
Metzger, for false arrest and imprison
ments occupied the time of Judge George
and a jury yesterday, and will be con
cluded today. The parties reside at
Gresham, where Metzger formerly con
ducted a butcher shop. Young Merrill
worked for him, and boarded at his house.
One day last'December Metzger was away
from his place of business, and a man
called to collect a bill of 535. Merrill went
to Metzger's house to get the money, and
Metzger's daughter, Lydla. gave It to
him.
Miss Metzger testified that ahe went to
the closet and took out a bag full of

fruit Jars, and, after pouring the contents
on to a table, counted out the sum Mer
rill required, and placed the balance, J279,
back In the bag, and as Merrill was go
ing out of the door she put the bag back
in Its place of concealment. She stated
that Merrill saw her take the money from
the closet. Her mother told Merrill a?
he was leaving not to come to the house
for his meals for a few days, as they
were going away, and to go to his own
home for them. Miss Metzger testified
further that they took the stage that af
ternoon, after having locked the nouse.

Montavllla. She did not return for a
month
J Metzger afterwards discovered that the

of Leslie Merrill. A preliminary hearine
was held before Justice Reid, who, after
carefully considering the evidence, dis
missed the case against the young man
and discharged him from custody. None
of the monej- was traced to Merrill, but
It was learned that he purchased an over

TENNYSON RECITAL.
Mil Ethel Webb Entertains Mem
bers of TCoraaa'ft Clab.
Miss Ethel Webb's Tennyson recital at
the Portland Woman's Club meeting yes
terday afternoon, was a delightful event
to the clubwomen, who were present in
full force.
Miss Webb has a deep, rich voice, which
makes her reading a pleasure to the ear,
and she has also a gift for dramatic ex-
presslon. She added greatly to the In
terest of her readings by a cleverly writ
ten paper on Tennyson's life and work.
Besides the fragments of exquisite
poetry which illustrated the paper. Miss
Webb gave' a dramatic reading or the
convent scene in "Lancelot and Guine
vere" and also read very beautifully "The
Passing of Arthu," from the Idylls of the
King, the work which won for Tenny
son the highest esteem of the English
people. The recital ended with "Crossing
the Bar."
Miss Gussle Rosensteln played upon the
piano "Valse Chromatlque" (Godard) and
as an encore selection "Calllehoe" (Cham
lnade). Miss Bessie Greenberg played a violin
solo, a selection from "II Trovatore,"
and received an enthusiastic encore, to
which ehe played ""Blumenlied" very
Ltuneful and sweet. Her acompanlst was
her sister, little Miss, Lizzie Greenberg.
VETERANS TO BE IN LINE
Spanish-American "War Camps De

The Spanish-American War Veterans
wui parade on Roosevelt day. They win
take a position in any part of the line
that may be assigned to them and will
do everything In their power to make the
day a success.
Such was the decision reached at the
mass meeting of the veterans held In the
Armory last evening. It was Introduced
as a motion by General Summers, and, af
ter considerable discussion adopted by
the meeting.
General Gantenbeln. Department Com
mander of the Spanish-American War
Veterans, was chosen chairman and Cap
tain Kemp, pepartmcnt Adjutant, was
secretary oi tne meeting.
The department commander was in
structed to send a communication to the I
grand marshal of the. parade, notifying
mm of this action.
The committee on the sham battle, to be
given by the Spanish-American War Vet
erans and National Guard on the evening
ot May 22. reported that through the
cdurtesy of the board of directors
and Ptesident Marshall, of the Port
land Baseball team of the Pacific
Coast League, that the ball grounds at
Twenty-fourth and Vaughn streets had
been secured for the occasion.
The proceeds of the sham battle are to
be divided between the Lone Fir anl Riv-
erview cemetery military plot funds, the
money to be used upon each for general
improvements.
The auditing committee of three ar-
pomiea at tne last mass meetlntr to ex
amine and report on the books and ac- i
counts of Generals Summers and Gan-
lenoein reported tnat tney nad made a
thorough inspection and found the ac
counts In excellent condition.
General C. F. Beebe Renijrnn.
General C. F. Beebe yesterday tendered
his resignation as the grand marshal of
the President's parade. He stated that
he did not cart: to cause any friction with
ucncrai summers, and rather than see
any ill feeling he would resign. There has
been a great deal of talk among the Span
ish -and Philippine War veterans as to
why General Summers was not appointed.
and this criticism seems to be the direct
cause of the resignation of Mr. Beebe.
Tbere seems to be some doubt as to
whether the Mayor will accept the resig
nation.

HEAYILY INVOLVED.
A Failure Impending.
Improper feeding brings on disease. The
use of coffee, for Instance, is almost cer
tain to cause organic ills. The whole
system of health becomes Involved and
the physical failure known as collapse
Is always Impending. No financial trou
ble can cause half the suffering that. fol
lows disease, and most disease comes
-from what we cat and drink.
It Is no guess work, but solid, scientific
fact that coffee hurts about nine of every
ten that drink it. It attacks the vital
organs directly, and Indirectly Its ill re
sults are frequently seen In the remotest
corner of the body. All the while serious
organic diseases may be growing that
will be hard to cure, and the coffee drinker
is subject to such suffering as headache,
biliousness, flatulence, insomnia, nervous
ness and a hundred and one other ills.
"Once upon a time," as they siy In
the tales, "when I was controlled by the
coffee fiend," writes a lady of St. John,
Canada, "life was a weary burden to me
on account of the wretched headaches,
utter weariness of both mind and body
and general biliousness, a'll due, as 1 after
ward found out, to the use of coffee.
Acting upon an old friend's advice, I
quit coffee and drank Postum, and presto,
in a week I was transformed into a dif
ferent being-.
"In a month I was gifted with bound
ing energy In place of my former lassi
tude, and a general uprising of my for
merly dormant ambitions was plainly
evident. I benefited so greatly tllat I
constituted myself a missionary among
my friends to spread the truth about
Postum, and I can tell you of many of
my friends who have used It with won'
derful good results."
