THff MCiRTyy ; OREGONI AN. T.fe??PA-Yj;.M:l 1905; M LIS N EFFtGT FRIDAY Automobilists, Foodsellers and Vendors, of Intoxicating Liquor Are Affected. WHIPPING-POST IS READY Iiashes'Aro Not for- the Classes of Citizens Mentioned Above, Tbutf ; for Men Who Beat Their Wives. SALEM, Or., May -17. (Special.) Fri day morning the laws papsed by the legislature will be in full force and efTect and those who would avoid trouble will do well to inform themselves as to the new requirements and be careful inot to violate the statutes. Many of the new laws are such as are not likely to be vio lated, very frequently, while others are laws for "the prohibition of certain acts that are committed dally. . The new automobile law, the pure-food law and the" law forbidding the sale of liquor to minor females arc among the new enactments that are likely to cause troublo unless carefully observed. The whipping-post law, the law for the pun ishment of macqueraux and the hunter's 'Icensc law arc others that are quite likely to be called to public attention by means of their enforcement. Regulation of Automobiles. The automobile law requires every owner of an automobile to file his name and address in the office of the Secretary of State, together with a brief descrip tion of his vehicle, and to secure from the Secretary a certificate bearing a cer tain number. The fee for such certificate Is $3. The owner of the automobile must place upon the back of his vehjclc In a con spicuous place the number and the let ters "Ore." Thus, if the number of his certificate be 27, he will have on the back of his auto, the characters "27-ORE." The characters must be light colored, on a dark background, and not less than three Inches high. The purpose of this requirement is to furnish evidence with which to identify any machine that mav be operated contrary to law. The law further requires that each auto must be provided with a lighted lamp at night, with the number painted on the glass of the lamp. Every auto must be provided with a "muffler" and with a good brake. Whenever an automobile approaches a vehicle drawn by a horse or horses, precaution must be taken not to scare the animals and if the horse or horses appear frightened the speed of the machine must be reduced until the driver has his team under control. If the driver so requests by means of signals, the auto must be stopped. The maximum speeds of automobiles in this State are as follows: In the thickly settled or business part of a city. Hght miles an hour: within 100 yards o( any vehicle drawn by a horse or horses, eight miles an hour: on the public high ways outside a city or village, 2 miles an hour: over any city or village cross walk when any person Is upon the amf. four miles an hour. At all times the speed at any place must be reasonable, having due regard for the traffic and use of the road by others. Penalties are by fine of not to exceed $23 for the first offense, X50 for the sec- i ond offense and f 100 for each succeeding ! offense. j Butter, Milk, Ice-Cream. The pure-food law is a lengthy statute j and not easily summarized Tho follow ing are articles of food that arc deemed ! to he adulterated: Ice-cream that con- 1 tains less than 12 per cent butter fat; cream that contains less than 20 per cent butter fat: butter that contains more than 16 per cent water: milk that con tains less han 3.2 er cent butter fat and 9 per cent of solids other than butter fat. Reworked uutter must be plainly marked "process butter" and butter that has been packed must be marked "tub. butter." The sale of imitation butter is prohibited but uncolorcd oleomargarine may be sold if marked to show the con sumer its real character. In public eat ing rooms where oleo, renovated butter or process butter are served, that fact must be shown by the bill of fare and by conspicuous notices posted in the din ingroom. All cheese offered for sale must be branded as follows: Full cream cheese. If it contains not less than 3 per cent butter fat: half skimmed cheese, if It contains not less than 15 per cent butter fat: three-quarter skimmed cheese if it contains 72 per cent butter fat: skimmed cheese. If it contains less than 7- per cent butter fat. Hunter's License. The hunter's license law requires that every person hunting in this state must secure an annual Hcenp? from the County Clerk, paying therefor 31. A license ex pires at the end of the calendar year, re gardless of. the date of issue. Nonresi dents must pay a fee of 310 for a license. The law does not apply to families hunt ing on their own land. Xo Liquor to Minor Females. The law relating to the sale of liquor to minor females provides a fine of 3100 to S1000 as punishment for any person who shall sell or give Intoxicating liquors to a female under 21 years of age. The same penalty is provided for any proprietor or employe of any liquor-selling establish ment who shall permit a minor female to remain In any place where Intoxicating liquors arc o!d or served. ThI.i docs not apply to a female accompanied by her parent or husband or to any open and public restaurant or dining-room. The law for the punishment of macquer eaux provide that If any person shall live with a prostitute or live wholly or In part off of her earnings or shall solicit for her. he shall be guilty of a felony and shall be punished by Imprisonment In the penitentiary one to five years, or fine of 31000 to 35000. Whipping-Post for Wlfe-Bcatcrs. The whipping-post law provide that a man convicted of assault and battery upon his wife may be. -in the .discretion of the trial Judge, punished by the infliction of not to exceed 20 lashes, administered by the Sheriff or constable. Other Xcw Laws. Among other laws which go into effect Friday morning, and which have general application, are the following: The law making one-half a man's wages liable to execution for the payment of debts incurred for family expenses. The law requiring that insane patients shall be -taken to the Insane asylum by attendants sent out from the asylum. The law authorizing the Governor, Sec retary of State . and State Treasurer to appoint a Tax Commission, composed of three men. whose duty it shall be to study laws relating to assessment and taxation an report to the next Legislature. The law forbidding the exhibition of hypnotized persons. The law prevMlsc "for the, appointment f s state engineer y the Governor, upon j the recommendation of the director of the J United States Geological Survey. I The' lav making it mandatory upon i County Courts to levy an annual school I library tax sufficient to raise a sum equivalent to 10 cents per capita upon the children of the. county between the ages of 4 and 20 years. It will ' require the employment of four more men and three more women as attendants at the asylum to carry out the requirements of the new law governing- the transportation of insane patients. The increase in the force will be by the employment of Inexperienced persons to take subordinate positions, while experienced attendants will be sent out to bring the patients to the asylum. The newly-employed persons will be put on duty as assistants on wards where there are now two at tendants and one of the three can be spared when necessary to send out for a patient. In the case of female patients brought from a short distance, a female attendant will be sent. Where the trip is long, two attendants, a man and his wife, will be sent. Superintendent Calbreath has received bids from local cabmen on carriage service from the depot to the asylum, and .will probably accept the offer of J. A. Simpson to carry the patients at 51 each. He believes this to be cheaper than he can carry the patients with a state team, for he would have a tele phone or telegraph expense on nearly every trip. t CHURCHES VERY PROSPEROUS Report Brought by Delegates to Tho Dalles District Conference. HOOD RIVER, Or., May 17. (Special.) Thirty-seven different charges are rep resented at The Dalles District Con ference of the Methodist-Episcopal Church, which convened in this city last night. Elder G. M. Booth is presiding at the conference with Rev. Walton Skip worth, of The Dalles, secretary.

RING EZRA MEEKER, PIONEER AND HISTORIAN, HAS SCHOONER. Oak Wagon That Crossed the Plains Fifty Years Ago to Be His Home on the Trip. SEATTLE. Wash.. May 17. (Special.) Driving an ox team attached to an original "prairie schooner" of the vin tage of o2, Ezra Meeker, historian and pioneer of Washington, will retrace the Oregon trail this summer and will camp with his "outfit" on the banks of the Willamette Slough long enough to take a peep at the World's Fair. Mr. Meeker says that he will charter the real thing, in the shape of a stout , oak wagon, which has been enjoying i for 50 years past well-earned retire? Iment in an old shed on the banks of the Cowlitz River. It played its part in : the march of the pioneers across the prairies in the early '50s. Mr. Meeker says that in order to show the people at the Fair just how the pathfinders lived In the early Oregon days he will rehabilitate that old ox cart, and cov ering it with a snow-white canopy properly inscribed "Oregon or Bust" he will make the journey over again from the Sound to Portland, and there pitch his tent and tell the visitors how it all happened in '52. "You see.' said Mr. Meeker, "when they talk about pioneer days and the Oregon pioneers of the World's Fair at Portland, the passion gets hold of me to journey back there In the same old style and over the same old trail. There will be a lot of men and women of Oregon, gray-haired and grizzled like myself, who will come to see what wonderful progress the country has made In 50 years. They'll contrast times today with their own ways of living1 and doing when they crossed the plains to the Columbia River In the 'early fifties." Mr. Meeker will sleep in the open on the trip and cook his meals at a campfire. But. he declares, his wife Is too old for these hardships. t YSAYE'S NORTHWEST TOCR.

Foss was IMi admirer of Mr. Riggs. as was Frank Rles. a neighboring rancher. Foss and Rles had at numerous times fallen out and rivalry for the widow's hand seemed to have much to do with it. J Thursday evening. May 11, the rivals met and had a war of words. Rles stop i ped immediately afterward at the home of J. N. Knight, told his tale, and said i he thought strongly of going home after his rifle to kill Foss- At 9:30 seven rifle shots were heard In the vicinity of Foss cabin. George Per kins, a near neighbor, ran a quarter of a mile to the place. As he came up he heard a bolt withdrawn from the inside and Rles came out. gun in hand. Rles then .told Perkins he had killed Foss and announced that he was about to burn the cabin. As soon as Perkins could get away, he flod for home and sat all night with a rifle across his knees, fearing death, for Ries had commanded htm not to tell what he had seen or heard. A bright light soon showed the destruction of the scene of the tragedy. Foss body was found in the ruins the next day, badly charred, but with enough intact to show the per foration of bullets. Rles arrest followed. This much of the story was obtained fiom the witnesses from Mount Hood J. N. Knight, Mr. Morton, H. A. Thomas, H. A. Gray. Lewis Owen. Mrs. Perkins. George, Perkins. John Dummick. Most of it had come out atthe coroner's Inquest, which charged Rles with the killing. The Introduction of Mrs. Riggs in the case followed. Tt wa shown conclusively that the rifle used was the property of Mrs. Riggs. The gun was found the next day in her house, and two of the shMls fitted the weapon. These shells wern r!rfce,t nn one at what was the door to the burned cabin, the other in the road in front of me piace. .no trace wax round of tho other five shells fired.

It was shown to have been posstu.e for lilm to nave reacned Mrs. Riggs place and re turned, by means of a by-path, so that he would not have been observed. In answer to the summons of the Court Mrs. Riggs came to The Dalles last night and registered at a hotel. -This morning she went to her lawyer's offlco to consult him" In regard to the claim on which she lived. This claim had been taken up by her husband, and there was some trou ble about the title. Foss Is said to have been in possession of Information that was viiai to -Mrs. Riggs' title. Mrs. Riggs left her lawyer's office with the avowed Intention of going to the District Attorney's office. She has not been seen since. "The examination was delayed somewhat by the widow's non attendance. Mrs. Hi&gs Said to Be III. HOOD RIVER. Or.. May 17.-(Spedal.)-To many people within the immediate neighborhood of the recent tragedy in which Foss lost his life and whose body was cremated for the purpose of hiding a crime, the reported disappearance of the Widow Riggs does not cause the sen sation that It perhaps does to others. Since the arrest of Rles there have been murmurings that the affair would not end there. Mrs. Riggs left here last night for Th Dallcs In company with eight other witnesses who had been subpenaed by District Attorney Menefee to appear at the preliminary examination of Frank Rles whom the Coronor's Jury charged with the death of Foss found burned in his cabin last Friday morning. H. A. Thomas, a brother of Mrs. Riggs, returned this afternoon from The Dalles. VT. H. "Wilson. Rles attorney, was here at the time and Thomas left Word that Mrs. Riggs had been taken sick and could not appear as a witness at the ex amination, but that she was arranged to meet Mr. AYilson In the parlor of the Umatilla House on the arrival of the early train this evening from Hood River.

NEAR OLD PLACER GROUND Locators Have Delved Beneath the Surface-, and Find the Values Increase With Depth of the Vein. BAKER' CITY. Or., May 17. (Special.) News has been brought to town of an important discovery in an entirely new section, and one that Is apt to cause quite a ripple of excitement among the mining men In this district. Bert Caviness, who is one of the discoverers, with L. B. Akers, was brought to Baker City for medical treatment at the hospital. He says they have developed a ledge of a width of iVt feet, which gives an assay of $1S3 per ton. The rock is very free and shows gold visible to the naked eye throughout the whole extent. The locators have exploited the ledge with surface work, with open cuts for over 700 feet, and also with a tunnel, which intersects the vein at a depth of 108 feet. The tunnel is 140 feet in length, and where the tunnel cuts the vein the ore shows values running higher than that found upon the surface. This vein lies just a little above the old placer diggings which were all worked out over 30 years ago. The location of this new find may be described as being distant from Baker City about 50 miles, nearly south In Baker County, and about S'fc miles from the Mal heur County line. It Is six miles from the Mount Rastus discovery and about 5j2 miles from the town of Unity. The vein lies right on the slope of Bull Run Mountain, a point well known to all prospectors In that region. The celebrated Eldorado ditch runs near the new discover", and will be used to furnish water for milling purposes. Both Bert Caviness and Akers are well known all over Eastern Oregon as persistent and hardworking prospectors and no one will begrudge them any good fortune. OREGOX CITY MAYOR PASSES IT UP TO COUNTY AUTHORITIES. If Games Are Allowed Elsewhere They Will Be Permitted In Town. OREGON CITY. Or.. May 17.-(Special.) "If the county authorities permit the operation of a gambllng-housc at Mllwau kle, gambling will be allowed right here In Oregon City." stated Mayor E. A. Som mer today In discussing the situation In Clackamas County. "So far as the re port that ,'Frcnchy Gratton Intends to start a gambling-house In Oregon City is concerned. I will state that no such Inten tion has been Indicated on the part of Mr. 3ratton. nor would such a .proposal be considered from Mr. Gratton or any other person. "On two occasions I have Interviewed Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Schuebel, and he assured me that there would not be tolerated in Clackamas County any gambllng institutions whatever. I told him that if he adhered to that policy that there would be no gambling In Clackamas County, for the city authorities would not countenance anything of the kind. "But if a gambling-house is started in Milwaukle or any other place -so conveni ently located to Oregon City by men who have been driven out of Portland, or by any other person?, we will make Oregon City an open town In the true sense of the term. And what t more, gambling will be licensed and the proceeds will be turned Into the city treasury. Games will also be under police regulation." Mayor Sommer was not elected on a closed-town platform, neither did he premise any radical reforms. The only pledge he made was the strict enforce ment of city ordinance? respecting the relations of the saloons and minors, and he has vigorously pursued that, course. Other than for poker playing, Oregon City has been a closed town for a year, and during the last few weeks this game has been driven from the ground floor to upptairs rooms. It 1 generally believed that a strict enforcement of this policy on the part of Mayor Sommer will so arouse public sen timent that gambling of every descrip tion will be entirely suppressed In the county within another year. SOMAS A. EDISON, the in ventor, in mapping out the rooietas of the future, jjitcs rat place to the necessity of fighting: the bacteria whica give, as our diseases. Next to the actual bacteria of dis- , ease, the moeqmtos and flies are the mott d&ugero&a caenries of man.
