N FEAR OF BEING CAPTURED
William Ford, a Married Man of 35,
and Emily Bogard, a Girl of
.16Years, Are the
x Principals.
HOSBBURG, Or., July 12. (Specie!.)
Drowning' themselves to escape cap
ture while eloping1 Is Relieved to have
been the fate of "William Ford, aged 35
years, and Emily Bogard, aged 16 years,
near Millwood, this county. Coroner
Twltchell has just been notified by
telephone and will hold an inquest to
morrow. The bodies were found in a stream
today. "Why Ford and the young glrJ,
who Is a niece of Deputy Sheriff Bo
gard, of Douglas County, should have
drowned themselves in one another's
company Is a mystery solved only by
the elopement theory, which is gener
ally believed. Ford leaves a family.
There is not the slightest doubt but
that the drowning -was done with sui
cidal intent, and the only mystery is
the incentive for committing the act.
Apparently the secret lovers had
started on an elopement this morning,
and had not &one far whon something
occurred which mado certain ultimate
capture and disgrace for Ford. The
drowning took place five miles south of
Millwood.
DRANK POISON IN TEA.
Yamhill Woman Had Suffered From
Domestic Infelicity.
M'MrNNVILLE. Or., July 12. (Special.)
Mrs. L. P. Christenson, a well-known
resident of this vicinity, commlted suicide
yesterday by taking strychnine. Her hus
band left her at home In the morning to
work in the fields near by. Soon after
he left, her little girl states, she drank
a cup of tea and was immediately thrown
Into convulsions. The little girl summoned
the neighbors. Mrs. Christenson request
ed them to do nothing for her, as she was
going to die any Tiay. She did not tell
them she had taken poison, but a small
bottle containing strychnine was discov
ered, on a shelf near by. Fresh finger
prints in the dust on the bottle showed
-that it had been recently removed. The
neighbors summoned Dr. Cook, and he
pronounced her poisoned.
Domestic trouble Is supposed to have
been the cause of her action, as she pre
viously told some of the neighbor women
thai sh could net live with her husband,
and that She would kill herself if there
was not a radical change soon. The
Coroner will hold an Inquest.
REGULATION OF INSURANCE.
Washington Supreme Court Upholds
Constitutionality of Law of 1901.
OLYMPIA, "Wash., July 12. (Special.)
The Supreme Court, In an opinion today,
upholds the constitutionality of section 12
of the act of 1901 regulating fraternal in
surance companies. The section in ques-
-ptldn is the principal protective feature of
the whole act as it sets out a table of
mortuary assessment rates which are de
clared the minimum rates that shall be
charged by fraternal Insurance companies-organized
under the act.
The action was brought by the state to
enjoin the Fraternal Knights and Ladles
from doing business until they corrected
"violations of table of minimum rates. The
company obtained a dismissal of the case
, In the Superior Court on the ground that
the complaint did not state a cause of
action, but the Supreme Court reverses
this decision.
The aesociation contended that the law
was'dass legislation. In that it excluded
from the operations of the act companies
organized prior to its enactment The Su
preme Court holds that inasmuch as the
aet dees not discriminate between asso
ciations organized subsequent to its en
actment it is constitutional.

tioneries and all other business not speci
fied by law as exempt. In the present it
is not known whether the saloonmen will
carry the matter to such minute discrimi

With Good Flow.
EUGENE, Or., July 12, (SpecIal.)r-Pro-fessor
McAllister and his party, who re
turned a-few days ago from a trip up the
Santiam River where they have been
making a topographic survey, found an
abundance of water power there. They
began at a point 22 miles above Mill City
And surveyed down to that place. In their
measurements of the flow of water they
found a volume of 22,000 cubic Inches a
minute. The fall in the distance of 22
miles was S00 feet, or over 40 feet to the
mile.
There are scarcely any level stretches,
the river being almost a connected chain
of .rapids. They found a great many places
at which an enormous water power could
be obtained by constructing dams across
the stream, which could be readily done.
At Niagara such a work was undertaken
but never completed. A fall of 60 feet Is
secured at that place in that manner.

W1NSSALEM HEARTS
Tom Richardson Addresses
Commercial Club. .
TALK FULL 0FC0MM0N SENSE
Delegation of Ten Will Be Sent to
Portland to Aid in the Organiza
tion of a State Development
League.
SALEM, Or., July 12. (Special.) Man
ager Tom Richardson, of the Commercial
Club, of Portland, completely won the
hearts of the members of the Greater Sa
lom Commercial Club, by his address this
evening. A straightforward business talk,
full of common sense, and Inspired by an
enthusiastic devotion to the development
of the state, received the hearty approval
of the Salem organization, as was manU
fest by frequent applause. After the ad
dress by Mr. Richardson and General
Passenger Agent Comariof the Southern
Pacific, numerous prominent citizens of
Salem gave their indorsement to Mr.
Richardson's plans and tho club ordered
that a delegation of 10 members be sent
to Portland August 2 to aid In organiz
ing a State Development League.
Colonel E Hofer, president of the club,
presided and first introduced Mr. Coman,
who spoke briefly upon the immigration
work that has flbeen done in Oregon by
the Harriman lines, with the aid and co
operation of the people of the state. The
transportation lines, he said, believe that
development work can be most effective
ly carried on if a state league be organ
ized, and to aid that movement they
have made a one-fare rate for the round
trip to Portland at the time of the or
ganization meeting. He reminded the
members of the Salem club that what
ever builds up one portion of the state
helps every other portion of it, and said
that the proposed organization is designed
to help every part of the state and no one
locality In particular.
Mr. Coman was several times heartily
applauded, especially when he told how
effective the Immigration literature sent
out by this county has been.
Mr. Richardson won the good will of
his audience before he had spoken a
dozen sentences and before he had finished
It was evident that new life had been
put Into the Salem Commercial Club by
his practical suggestions forcefully made.
At the conclusion brief addresses were
made by R. J. Hendricks, Mayor Waters,
August Hucksteln. F. N. Derby, John D.
Scott and Tllmon Ford. Mr. Richardson's
address was in part as follows:
Community building-, whether applied to an
Individual city, a state or a .section of the
country which has Interests in common, has
become recognized as a necessity In all por
tions of the United States, ae well as in many
other countries.
The actle men of different communities have
learned that through organization and co-operation
they can not only advance their personal
Interests, but can be of great service to the
community In which they l!e. Organized
effort, well directed, can accomplish splendid
results, and the medium which has met the
approval of the best business mlndo of this
country la the popular commercial body. The
exchanges established for the purpose of buy
ing and selling given commodities have long
since discovered that to attempt work on
progressive lines Interferes with the regular
order of business, and In the better cities of
the country popular commercial organizations
which have for their sole purpoao the advance
ment and betterment of the community have
Ijecn established as a "learlng.house, through
which all matters which have for their pur
pose the good of the whole or a large part of
the community can be handled advantageously.
Experience teaches that the cost of maintain.
Ing an active and result-getting popular body
saves many thousands of dollars annually to
the "btwlncss men and property-holders.
Through these popular "organizations many
matters Important to a city or state receive
attention which would be neglected If it was
not the business of some Individual employed
for the purpose to look after them.
It is utterly Impossible to forecast what can
be accomplished whn a community is working
in aarmony and earnest Are you aware
that in less than .j Ua,s the Portland Com
mercial Club has directly and Indirectly added
lOO.OOO pieces of mail matter to the business of
the Fostoffice of that clt? The business men
of your slater city left their places of business
in the middle of the afternoon of a busy day
and addressd the pupils of 18 different schools
to Interest the jounger generation of Portland
In helping to develop regon through corre
spondence, and the results have been almost
phenomenal.
I hope that the people of Salem, old and
joung, will take a personal Interest In the
prize contest for articles on Oregon. These
articles must appear In some paper printed
outside of the State of Oregon and the copy ef
the paper sent to the Portland Commercial
Club to be turned over a committee, vvhleh
will be selected by the Governor. So that there
might be no conflict, one set of prizes is offered
for residents of Oregon outside of Portland,
uhl.c another Is confined to the people of Port
land. The first prize Is a gold medal or $50 In
cash the second prize depends upon the selec
tion made by the winner of the first Prize.
The third prize Is $25, the fourth $15, and the
fifth $10. The financial end is worthy of com
petition, but a greater satisfaction comes from
doing jour duty as a citizen. "Remember, these
letters will leave ou free to talk of Salem
and the Willamette Valley. The winner may
be the author of a good story. The only thing
barred la "Webfoot."
FIRES UNDER CONTROL.
Fighters Gain Victory In King
County Forests.
SEATTLE. Wash., July 12. (Speclal.)
The forest fires In King County are now
under control, according to reports reach
ing the office of Deputy Fire "Warden
Rief. He put In most of yesterday in
vestigating the fire near Green Lake, and
says It is not very large In extent and
cannot spread far because the number
of skid roads makes it an easy matter
to fight the fire and keep it In check.
Most of this land has been logged off,
and the principal damage was done to
cordwood and shingle bolts piled up ready
for shipment. The cool, damp weather of
last night and today Is of great help to
the fire fighters, for the sparks do not
fly much and the fire does not spread so
quickly.
A roport from Maywood, near the Green
River Hot Springs, this morning says the
fire Is still burning, bu.t Is not spreading
much. A large force of men Is at
work there, but as the roads are few it Is
a hard matter to start back fires.
Up Jn Cherry Valley a fire Is burning,
but as It Is working toward a swamp It
cannot spread far. Little or no damage
is done there, for most of the timber has
been cut off. The Ravensdale fire is com
pletely under control.
ST. JOSEPH PLANTS TIED Up.

Nonunion Help.

laborers should they be unsuccessful In
securing experienced help. The packers
say the men did not want to quit work,
and that many employes have said they
would return should the strike continue
longer than what might bo considered a
reasonable time for th,e settlement of dlf
ferences with the laborers. About 5QQ0 em.
ployes are out
The strikers are orderly and there has
been no attempt at demonstration of any
Jclnd. Many of the strikers congregated
(about headquarters of the Packing Trades
Council and discussed the situation
among themselves.
About 700 men employed In the yards
of the packing-houses and many employed
by the Stockyards Company are thrown
out by the strike.
The workmen cleaned up the premises
and finished all work on hand before
walking out.
Passed Up to Quarrymen.

tically admitted the justice of the action
of the Capitol Commission in refusing to
accept the new Capitol building until the
acid stains have been removed from the
stone, window sills and glass, and have
also admitted the justice of most of the
claims of omission on the contractors'
part
The contractors, however, intend to hold
the stone quarry-owners liable for tho
condition of tho stone, as the attempt to
change the color was recommended by
the quarry people. The contractors have
notified the quarry-owners to remedy the
defects, and say that If the latter fall to
act they will do the work themselves and
look to the quarry for damages.
Fruit-Peddlers Are Shut Out.
HOOD RIVER, Or., July 12. (Special.)
The small boys who have been accus
tomed to peddling fruit af the depot plat
form at the arrival of passenger trains

fruit on the railroad right of way. The
station agent here has been notified that
this is against the rules of the company,
aa the newsboys pay for exclusive priv
ileges for celling fruit on the trains. The
local agent has called upon the City
Marshal to keep the boys with fruit off
the railroad right of way. The Marshal
finds his task a difficult one.

cery store, a barber shop. Ice-cream
parlors and a restaurant The latter is
this year conducted by the Chautau
qua Society.
President Hawley, In his address of
welcome, took as the subject of his re
marks the place of such an institution
as the Chautauqua In the American
public life and the nature and value of
the services It may render.
President Lee, of Albany College, re
sponded in a short but happy and in
spiring speech. President Hawley In
troduced the Instructors, who Individ
ually announced their subjects i,n neat
speeches.
In the afternoon the auditorium con
tained a large audience, which received
Dr. Krebs with enthusiasm. The sub
ject, "The Psychology of Fear and Wor
ry." He said In part: "We are all seek
ing the same thing, happiness, and It Is
right that we should. All the activities
of humanity may be classed under four
divisions, production, transportation,
education, evangelization and the pur
pose of all Is to make men happy. Hap
piness Is not found In environment; if
environment Is tho mainspring of our
happiness, our happiness will change
as environment changes. There Is
something In us which makes It pos
sible for man to rise above his environ
ment, and that Is mind. If he can do It
once, he can twice and thrice and al
ways. Environment may aid, but true
happiness Is a stae of mind purely and
solely. For Illustration, the sight of
well-served and delicious frogs' legs
causes one man pleasure and anothor
distress.
"The psychology of fear is divided
into the nature of fear, the cause of
fear, the curse of fear and the cure of
fear. I do not mean dread when I speak
of fear, nor do I mean horror. But I
speak of groundless fear of forebodings
not a great psychic storm, but a
habit"
Dr. Krebs attributed the cause to
four sources, physical, ethical, mental
and spiritual, and explained them ns in
the case of mental. "The mental cause
Is rooted In Ignorance. When ChrlBt
calmed the sea of Galilee the disciples
feared him and said. 'What manner of
man is this?' Where love and confidence
should have abounded, fear, through ig
norance, ruled supreme."
In conclusion. Dr. Krebs give3 an ex
cellent prescription for the strengthen
ing of the mind and body. "The killer
can be killed by caring for your health,
doing your duty, cultivating the spirit
of love, waiting until you understand,
trusting God. Do these thing3 and
hang four mottoes in your home as
follows:
"Don't worry, but work.
"Don't pine, but pray.
"Don't trouble, but trust
"Don't fear, but follow."

SUEPITJS OF I0GS.
Market Is
Glutted, and
Until Fall.
Will
Be
A committee representing a large num
ber of the loggers of Portland and vi
cinity will meet this afternoon at 3
o'clock In the office of the Columbia
Lumber Company, in the McKay build
ing, to consider the questions which con
front the logging interests of the state.
Two questions In particular will come
before the committee for discussion and
probable action one me question of
adopting some uniform, scale of wages to
be paid the loggers working In the camps
of the country; the other the advisability
of employing common scalers for all of
the firms.
The alliance, or association, of the big
loggers seems just at present to be up a
stump and the outlook for banding to
gether for an Indefinite shutdown of the
camp seems to be very dubious.
At the meeting held a few weeks ago.
It was decided by a number of the men
to corttlnue tho Fourth of July shutdown
until July 18, during which time an effort
was to be made to hold the camps down
for an Indefinite time. At the time of
the meeting there were three of the
largest concerns not represented the
Weyerhaueser Company, S. Benson and
E. S. ColJIn3. If these men would con
sent to close, the organization would be
too strong to be broken.
The Benson Interests are willing to
close provided the Weyerhaueser people
will keep their camp closed; but the lat
ter cannot comply. They claim to have
SOO.000,000 feet of burnt timber standing
which has to be cut It is also claimed
that but one-half of this amount ran he
cut before spoiling, as It Is dead and
fast deteriorating. They have agieed,
however, so it Is stated, to store their
logs and govern their price by that of
the association. If this Is done some
agreement may be reached by which an
organization can be affected. If not,
the camps will open generally on July 18,
When operations do resume, however,
but half of the capacity of the different
camps will be used. There was an esti
mated dally surplus of 500,000 feet of tim
ber over and above what Is used by the
mills at the time of the shutdown, which
the loggers hope to overcome by the 50
per cent cut in the output of the camps.
By running at half capacity It is also
expected that the big surplus now on
hand will be consumed when the mills
now idle commence work for the Win
ter. It is hoped by such action to clear
up the market by Fall, even If the com
bination of loggers cannot be formed to
shut the camps.
