DR. EDNA TIMMS gave the Homo
Training Association a sensible and
instructive talk yesterday upon the sub
Ject of "The Adolescent Period." Dr.
Tlroms said that the school courses were
too crowded, and that for the benefit .of
the health of the growing boys and girl
jstudy should be made lighter, home study
being entirely dope away with. This has
been accomplished in some cities already
with excellent results.
Chronic disorders are more frequent
among scholars who sit in school all day
as In such cases the brain is developed
at the expense of the body. Too much
candy and pickles and too much social
activity were mentioned also as detri
mental to the Health of many young
people.
Dr. Tlmma recommends that medical In
spectors be appointed for reboots, and
that separate lectures be given to girls
and boys In order to protect health.
Mrs. Walker led the question discussion,
during which the correction of children in
public was considered. The general de
cision was that children .should not be
punished or reproved before guest, but
when, as they often do, they take ad van
tage over their mothers in the presence of
company, it Is advisable to removo .ucm
from the room and administer disclpus
in private.

B are a very quiet and unas
suming people up there at For
est Grove." said State Senator E. w.
Haines at the Hotel Imperial last even
ing. "We have been drifting along in
an even tenor of a way for years and
have had very little excitement in our
home town. When we feel as though
we would lilce to be livened up wo
come to Portland.
"But at last we have suffered a re
action. We have been too quiet.. We
don't have to come to Portland any
more for excitement because we have
plenty of it at home. Forest Grove is
in the throes of a liquor war. The ques
tion uppermost in our minds Is to
whether we are to have a 'dry town
or a Vet town. We have a "dry" town
now.
'Our minds will be put a.t ease next
Monday when Judge McBride, of the
District Court, will decide the question.
At the last city election a Mayor and
three Councllraen were elected, who
were In favor of licensing saloons. They
are in the majority as there are only
sir members of the Council. It was
understood at the time that saloons
would be opened. One man went so far
as to erect a building to be used as a
saloon.
"But some of our people tip there do
not want saloons. They carefully
scanned the city charter and came to
the conclusion that the members of
the Council did not have the right to
license saloonc They got out an Injunc
tion to prevent the opening of the sa
loons. The other faction filed a demur
rer. The case has been argued. Judge
McBride will settle the question for
good and all Monday.
"It 1b pretty hard to tell how tne
case will come out. Some believe that
within a few weeks here will be sa
loons running at full blast. Others are
of the opinion that we will continue
'dry.' We have one great satisfaction
up there, however. Forest Grove Is
growing faster-than ever before. More
than 100 new houses have been erected
up there within a year and lots of East
ern people are coming to our town to
locate. The town will continue to grow
whether we get It 'dry or 'wet, "

Hanoaka. Is Now Losing His
Stoicism.
BIG DEVELOPMENT EXPEGTED
Wlth the- Strongest Circumstantial
Evidence Against Him and the
Testimony of New Witnesses
the Future Looks Dark.
Developements of great Importance yes
terday, will cause a postponement of the
preliminary hearing of Sakutaro Hano
nVn, scheduled for today in the Municipal
Court The prisoner is charged with mur
der In the first degree, for the killing of
L. Fugltaro. Detectives Hartman and
Vaughn1 have secured new and positive
evidence, and have decided to ask for a
con Jnuanee.
Hanoaka Is now confined In the County
Jail, and his former stoicism is leaving
him Until yesterday he has neen coioiy
indifferent regarding the crime of which
he is accused, but bis attitude has un
dergone a remarkable change. He mani
fests great Interest when talking to the
detectives about the murder, and there
are Indications that he is materially
weakening. When the case comes dn for
hearing, which will Drobably be tomorrow.
startling developments are expected.
From the time of Hanoawrs arrest ax
Harrlsburg and his return to Portland by
Detective Hartman. up to aad mciuaing
the day of the coroner's inquest, the pris
oner showed no signs of Interest in the
outcome. Since he was virtually held re
sponsible for Fugitaro's death, however,
he has noticeably changed in his de
meanor. It la the belief of the officers
that Hanoaka and his friends fully be
lieved the coroner's Jury wo Jld be unable
to connect him with the crime, It all of
the Japaneso witnesses held their silence.
and that the verdict was a distinct blow
to the man and hla intimate acquaint
ances.
Two additional Japanese, who know im
portant things regarding the stabbing of
Fugltaro, and one white man whose testi
mony is said to be valuable, have been
secured by the detectives. The testimony
these three men are sold to be able to
give, and the blood stains on Hanoaka's
knife blade and his clothing, are believed
by the officers to be sufficient at least to
send the prisoner to the penitentiary for
a long term.
The two Japanese who were out at the
banquet, presumably by Hanoaka. and
who swore at the coroner's Inquest that
they never knew Hanoaka previous to the
cutting affray, are now known positively
to have been friends with him for years.
Because they are linked together with
him in the strongest of secret bonds, it
has been learned, they have thus far re
fused, even under oath, to testify against
him.

Inmates Are Greatly Alarmed at the
Flames.
Intense excitement prevailed at the
Florence Crlttenton Refuge Home last
night, when tire broke out from a defec

to fire headquarters at 5:30 o'clock and
Engine No. 9. at Sunnyslde, was dis
patched to; the scene. It was a long dis
tance, but a fast run was made, and the
flames extinguished with but nominal
damage and no Injuries to Inmates.
There are twenty babies at the home,
and several women, in addition to the reg
ular staff. As soon as the flames were
discovered, the alarm was spread' through
the house, ana there were hurried prep
arations for vacating, in case of rapid
spread of the fire.
Because of the discipline prevailing at
the home, it was but a -brief time until
all of the babies and the inmates were
ready to be removed to places of safety.
should the danger increase.
The first thing to be done was to call
for fire apparatus. The nurses, under
direction of the superintendent, next made
arrangements for ths soeedv removal of
the babies, should the flames get beyond
control. All hands stood ready to act in
stantly. In case of necessity.
It was a long distance from Sunnyslde
station to Thirty-first and Gllsan, where
the home is situated, and It was necessary
for Engine No. 9 to make a circuitous
route, owing to the bad condition of the
streets. Therefore, it was quito a while
before the firemen were on the scene.
Upon the arrival of the firemen it was
found that the fire had not spread much.
fortunately, and the firemen cut off some
shingles and soon had the blaze out,

narrowly escaped death on the river about
thirty miles above that place at a o ciocx
Wednesday afternoon- The boys were
bringing a scow from Salem to Oregon
Cltv. and at the txInt mentioned the
steamer Aitoona ran Into them, cutting
the scow In two. Both boys had a nar
row escane from drowning and Smith re
ceived severe bruises about the head- and
shoulders as the result of the collision.
We were about thirty miles atiove Ore
gon City near a bend in the river." said
Smith last night "The steamer Aitoona
suddenly rounded the bend, running at
full sneed. The steamer did not whistle
and made no effort to give us room to get
out of the way. We did our best to get
to one side of the stream out of the
steamer's track, but we didn't have time.
She ran us down. The ucow was cut in
two. I was thrown against one side and
my shoulders bruised, and Crawford was
thrown into the water. He had a smau
rowboat at the back end of the scow and
he got into that. When they saw I was
In the water the steamer tnrew ma a
line, and I got it aad pulled myself on
board. Then they told me to hurry and
get in the rowboat. that they didn't want
to carry me. They compelled both or,
us I to take the boat, though we were
wet to the skin, we had to row to Ore
gon City in that condition and we both
caught cold. It is true that we are to
sue for damages."
The damage suit will be filed In a tew
days, the attorneys retained by the young
men having gathered sufficient evidence,
It Is claimed, to show that tne proper
precautions were not taken and that the
boys were not treated humanely after the
accident. The boys lost their clothing
and supplies with the scow.
