WON FAME ON SEAGIRT RANGE President Roosevelt- Received Him at the White House and Army Of ficers Congratulated Him on World Record. MISSOULA, Mont, Oct 27. After cov ering himself in the East with honors as the most remarkable rifle shot in the world, Sergeant Hawkins, colored, of the Twenty-fourth Regiment stationed at Port Missoula, has returned to his homo -to find himself less of a hero among the officers of his home post During, the recent championship tour nament held at Seagirt N. J., this sum xner. Hawkins made the phenomenal rifle ecore of 100 out of a possible 100, .the first and only time the record, has eter been made.

VANCOUVER, "Wash., Oct 27. (Spe cial.) Thomas G. Davison, of Portland, has secured the contract to build the log rollway for tho P., V. & T. R. R. Co. on L.ake River. The railroad company has been bringing the logs shipped over its line to Vancouver, where they were rolled from the cars into tho Columbia, but they are unable to secure sufficient rpom for rafting and when the tide is low there is not water enough to float the large logs, consequently they will build on lake River, where the logs will be rafted and towed to the different markets. The .rollway at this place will be largo enough to handle all the logs they can haul and they will have deep water to dumD them in at all times of the year. Thev will drive about 1000 piles in all. There Is room at this place to hold a large amount of logs in a boom at one time with less danger than in the open currents of the Columbia. Mr. Davison has also obtained the con tract to huild the switch which is to connect the new line of the P.. V. & T., which was built up Burnt Bridge Creek with, the line of the W. & O. This switch will connect Jiear the frnlt drier or Pack ard & Smith in Fruit Valley. The county road crossings at this place are considered verydangerous.

JUDGE'S DELAY NOT FATAL. May Be Forced to Render Decision Within Constitutional Time. OLYMPIA, Wash., Oct 27. (Special.) In a Walla Walla case decided today the Supreme Court holds that the failure of a Superior Court Judge to render his de cision within the 'SO days prescribed by the constitution does not Invalidate the Judgment The point was raised In the case of Or lando Demarls. respondent vs. Oliver P. Barker, --executor of the last will and testament of Serena Barker, deceased, the Portsmouth Trust & Guarantee Company and the Granite State Fire Insurance Company, appellant The action "was brought by "the respondent to enjoin the appellants rom selling property as the es tate of Serena Barker, and to quiet his title to the same.

The woman he shot whose true name is believed, to be Gladys Cook, was this evening pro nounced out of Immediate danger. DAIRYMEN MUST CLEAN UP. Barns and Wells Being Inspected by Food Commissioner Bailey. SALEM. Or., Oct 27. (Special.) State Food and Dairy Commissioner J. W. Ball ey was In Salem today inspecting the dairies in this vicinity. He said this even ing that he will condemn one or two barns that are unsuited for housing dairy cows and today he ordered the discontin uance of the use of water from a well on a dairy ranch.

(Special.) Here after strangers whp come to Salem and visit the State Capitol will go away prals-. Ing the beauty of that structure. As viewed from the outside, the building -has been an object of admiration ever since the doma was built In JS92. Now improve ments have been made in the Interior and no one who comes here from other states will have any criticism to offer on the appearance of Oregon's chief government al building. The latest Improvement to be made is the painting and gilding of the under sur face of the Interior dome, which covers the center of the building. This dome is of ornamental stucco work,' and had been left white. The last Legislature made arrangements for the painting of the dome and this has Just been completed by Frank Wlllman, under the direction of the State Board of Capitol Building Commissioners, comnoscd of the Govern or, Secretary of .State and State Treas- urer. The background is a Naples yellow, while the relief work is a dull cream, the high points of the relief being covered with gold leaf. The dome Is composed of 16 panels and the beads separating them are heavily overlaid with gold. The base of the dome and the walls of the corridor beneath are a light cream color. At the bottom of each of the panels Is a large wreath about four feet In diameter. In the center of each of these electric lights will be placed and a circle of lights will be arranged above the ledge at the bottom of the dome. When the lights are turned on at night the reflection will be upwards to the ornamented surface and the effect as seen by one standing below will be pleas ing In the extreme.

None of the boats sighted the disabled Meteor. The last heard of the Meteor about St Michael was on October 10. when she was sighted by the Ohio about 200 miles south of Nome In tow of the Eureka and headed for Dutch Harbor. When the Roanoke arrived at Dutch Harbor on the 21st inst, nothing was known of the movements of the Meteor or Eureka and the revenue cutters Man ning and Bear were preparing to start out to cruise Behrins Sea in search of them. Tho Manning left the evening of the 21st and the Bear was to have followed the next morning. The course which was mapped out will cover a cruise of 10 or 12 days. The captains of both the Bear and Manning expressed considerable anxiety, as it Is known that severe storms raged on Behrlng Sea during the week following the time the vessels were sight ed by the Ohio. The Eureka was said to have only 10 days' fuel supply on board when she left Dr. Cabel Whitehead and Judge A. Z Watson, elected by the rump Republican convention, and Colonel W. T.

(Spe cial) The City Council passed an ordi nance a few weeks ago making it pos sible to resurvey the City of In dependence and the survey is now being made by Mr. Butler, of Falls City. The work will be completed in about a week. The ordinance resulted from a complaint filed with the Council about the location of some fences. The fences were moved. after a survey had been made by tho County Surveyor for the purpose of locat Ing the line. It was found that the west end of the town was not properly sur veyed formerly and that residences and fences, barnB, etc, are extending all the way from two to five feet in the street in some places. It is stated the Council wishes to locate the lines and -then re-establish the boun daries, for the blocks, which will In all likelihood result In litigation, as those who have had their property surveyed and replaced their fences will resist -any encroachments upon their rights. The present Council will. In all likelihood, be changed considerably at the coming elec tion, and it Is generally thought that the matter will be dropped as soon as other Interests enter the City Council. The Council is presided over by J. M. Stark, tho present Mayor, who Is active in the matter of having the resurvey made. J. NewYork Dental Parlors MAIN OFFICE FOURTH AND MORRI SON STS.. PORTLAND.
