St. Johns Dock. St. Johns has com
pleted a public dock at tho foot of Rich
mond street that is a credit to that city, j
jind Is the only free public dock on the 1
Willamette River, not excepting Port
land. This dock only cost BL Johns a
little over 5500, and yet it could not be
duplicated for loss than $3000. It is a
public dock in every sense, and no
charges are now made for landing there.
All crafts running on the tIvct are free
to use it and are .using it. Later on it
may be necessary to make a small charge
to maintain it and make repairs, but if
any such charges are made they "will bo
eo small that they -will not be objectiona
ble. Some funds -will toe needed for this
purpose or the dock will deteriorate.
There are upper and lower decks to the
dock for high and low water. A ware
house will coon be needed to protect
freight from the weather, and a man will
have to be put in charge to look after
the freight and tho dock. It is already
provlng a great public convenience, and
Its construction is considered one of tho
wisest actions of the St. Johns Council.
C. TV. Cone, who received some Important
concessions from the city, donated the
lumber used in this dock, and made it
possible for the city to build a much
better public dock than it could other
wise have built.
Want Engine and Schoolhouses.
Secretary "Wallace Miller, of tho Midway
Improvement Association, fces called a
meeting of citizens from that section for
next Wednesday evening at the Portland
Crematorium, to lake steps to secure two

proposed to adopt a plan to raise money
to purchase both of these lots, and erect
a hall similar to the Firemen's Hall In
Sellwood. One only will be needed, tout
the second lot Is wanted to add to tho
school ground. Promise has been made
to the people that a new schoolhouse will
be built at Midway next year. Midway
has a volunteer Arc company and a
ladies' auxiliary, and all are expected to
come out to the meeting Wednesday night
and lend a hand in securing those lots.

Source or Water ScpplVt. Promoters
of incorporation for Montavllla say that
plenty of water may be had for a city
water plant by digging down through the
gravel bed that underlies that district.
Some of the wells recently sunk disclose
plenty of water flowing through the sub
strata, which cannot be exhausted. If
this fails the next best source Is tho
Columbia River, 34 miles north from
Montavllla, whore the residents are sure
they can get plenty of good water, with
out dangor of exhausting the supply. A
pipe lino, they say, can be laid from the
Columbia River to Rocky Butte, a high
elevation north of Montavllla, and from
there distributed to. Montavllla. It is
cstimatod that a plant of this sort will
cost all the way from $50,000 to $00,000.
which may be met by selling bonds of.the
proposed city. These are the sources of
water supply that are being considered
In advance of Incorporation. Opponents to
incorporation scout the idea of digging
for water in the gravel, for the reason,
they say, that hundreds of Montavllla
cesspools discharge Into this gravol bed.
Altogether there wllj be a hot fight In
Montavllla over all these questions.

Indian Maidens Earned Money to
Visit Portland Exposition.

is believed to be the best basket-ball team
of any public institution In the country,
arrived in Portland yesterday, undor the
direction of Superintendent F. C. Camp
bell, Mrs. Campboll and four other teach
ers in the school.
The party Is really a double team, for
the girls organized In such manner as to
give exhibition games, and In that manner
earned a fund to pay expenses of their
trip to the Lewis and Clark Exposition.
They are truly a handsome lot of young
women of the northern tribes east of tho
Rockies, only two of the nine belonging
to the same division. For exhibition con
tests, they are divided Into groups as
blues and rods, the personnel and tribal
allegiance of each follow:
Blues Belle Johnson. Blackfoot; Minnie
Burton, Shoshone; Emma Sansavere,
Chippewa; Nettle Worth, Asslnabolne.

Genie Butch, Asslnabolne; Sarah Mitch
ell, Yankton; Rosa Larosc, Arapahoe;
Josephine Lelphart, Plegan.

IKIES TO POST LETTER IX FIRE
ALARM BOX.
The old stage Joke whereby the rural
inhabitant not acquainted ivlth the
awlft advance of modern Inventions en
deavors to place his love letter in a
fire-alarm box and become eatlsfled
that the postmastor has received his
epistle by the tolling of a bell, became
a reality at 4 o'clock yesterday after
noon at Fifth and Morrison streets
when an old tiller of the soil, after
vainly trying to find the opening, turned
the knob on the little red box that he
might place his letter lnelde. Vainly
the old man tugged and pulled while
curious onlookers craned their necka to
locate the fire. As the Fire Depart
ment thundered down on the old man he
seemed to become aware of 'what he
had dene, and sheepishly elbowing hl6
way through the crowd he made his
escape up Morrison rtreet, .with his long
coat tails flying and his precious letter
, grasped tightly in his hand.
but for the exhibition games Joins the
other players for the competing team.
The last exhibitions were given at Kalis
pel and Whlteflsh, Mont., on the Great
Northern line.
These dusky -beauties from east of tho
Rocky Mountains have heard of the con
quest of the Pacific Coast teams by the
team at Chemawa, and are hopeful of
securing a match game to determine
which side of the range is entitled to dis
tinction as producing the best basket
ball players. It is also their hope to play
a game with some strong teams either at
the Lewis and Clarlc Exposition or under
auspices of local teams.
Miss Minnie Burton is a full-blood Sho
shone, of the same tribe as Sacajawea,
and Superintendent Campbell has endeav
ored to establish definitely whether there
exists any relationship between the fam
ilies, but has been unable to do so defi
nitely. Miss Burton Is a handsome type
of the Indian maiden, strong and athletic.
Teachers accompanying the team are:
Misses M&lley. Glass, DeLewe and Messrs.
Goings and Lelphart.

SUSPECT NEGRO
OF TIE GRIME
Police Have New Theory as
to the Murcierer of
Mrs. Van Dran.
THINK CLEW A GOOD ONE
Reasons for tho Belief of Chief Gritz
macher and District Attorney
Manning That They Have
a Tangible Basis.
The Van Dran murder mystery took a
new turn yesterday and suspicion points
In an entirely different direction from
that on which detectives, both for the
District Attorney and the police depart
ment have been working. That some one
connected with the Van Dran saloon, or
someone who knew the Ins and outs of
the Van Dran residence Is connected
directly or Indirectly with the crime is
the latest theory advanced. All tho em
ployes of Van Dran's saloon, who have
worked there In the past or lately, havo
been located and questioned, but one.
On the morning bofore or the ovcnlng
following tho death of Mrs. Van Dran. a
negro omployed by Van Dran at the
saloon In the capacity of a porter and
-general all around man dlsapperod hur
riedly. xo notice had been given to Van
Dran that the negro had decided to leave.
He asked to have his wages, given him
which was done. Nothing more was seen
of the porter and no attention was paid
to his absonce until Saturday.
Van Dran was questioned closely as to
Jhe duties of the negro and It was learned
that he had been sent frequently to tho
Van Dran fiat with ginger ale. Ho had
access to all the rooms In the flat and
knew where the ginger ale was kept.
Other than Van Dran himself the negro
was the only one who had been sent to
the flat with drinkables. Through the
efforts of parties working on the case
this negro has been located In a North
western city. If evidence which Is now
accumulating proves damaging, the negro
can be brought to Portland at any time.
Whoever committed the murder. It Is
now thought, was Indirectly associated
with others who had more at stakj than
mere animosity or Jealousy, The master
mind that planned the atrocious deed Is
thought to be someone with more cunning
and possessed of more recources. than a
naloon porter or a petty thief.
At police headquarters Detective Vau
ghn has assumed the responsibility of
tracking the murderer. Vaughn has beon
working day and night and seems to be
not discouraged, believing that something
tangible will dei-clop. From the District
Attorney's office. Detective Maher Is
making every efTort to locate the mur
dorer. District Attorney Manning through
his deputy, Mr. Moser, has taken more
than a personal Interest in the case and
everything possible Is being, done to
throw some light on the mystery.
LIQUOR QUESTION INVOLVED
Lively Fight Is Expected in St, Johns
Council Tonight.
Election of a successor to C. D. Ed
wards is on the programme to take place
this evening at the meeting of the St.
Johns Council. Just what obstructions
Councllmcn Shlelrs, Leggett and Brlce.
who fought to hold Edwards to his seat,
will make, has not developed, but It Is
hardly likely they will give up the fight
they lost when Edwards went out of his
own accord. The wholo fight made by
these members of the Council in their
efforts to retain Edwards In his seat
was. undoubtedly because they wore ap
prehensive that the new member might
favor granting license to soli liquor In
St, Johns. This Is generally conceded to
have been at the foundation of their
effort to. retain Edwards In the Council.
It has been charged that as soon as it
was announced that Edwards intended
to go Into business in Portland and leave
St, Johns, those favorable to liquor
license quickly found him a buyer for
his property at a good "price. Mayor
King sold the property, and when tho
papers were all made out and the deed
passed, making Edwards a non-freeholder
in St, Johns, the Mayor 'asked and
received Edwards' wrltton resignation.
This resignation Edwards withdrew be
fore it was read by Recorder Hanks.
The temperance people learned that If
Edwards got out St, Johns might be
thrown open to saloons, and he was per
suaded to withdraw his resignation, but
he is finally out, and the fight now comes
up on the election of, his successor.
The only way that Councllmen Shields.
Brlce and Leggett can hope to prevent
the election of a successor to Edwards is
by staying away. Councllmen Thomp
son, Llnqulst and Peterson are standing
by Mayor King and arc llkoly to vote
for a man who will stand with them.
If the three members succeed in pro-
HARD TO LEARN
Takes Hard Experience to Teach
People Some Truths.
Many people Jeer at the idea that cof
fee causes the aches and alls they suffer
from and often such people will go on
for years sticking steadfastly to the cof
feo and suffering month in and month
out but maintaining "Coffee don't hurt
me."
Only an actual ' test will open their
eyes to what they throw away when they
cast aside the richness and power of
health for a cup of coffee now and then.
A lady says:
"I did not learn tho real truth until I
made the change, but I can now posi
tively state that the headaches I had for
about seventeen years wcro caused by
drinking coffee for when I changed and
gave up coffee and used Postum In its
place I experienced entire relief; I have
not been troubled with headache since I
began Postum in 1S9S.
"This In brief has been my experience
on tho coffee question. Among my friends
I have seen many other wonderful in
stances of the power of this food drink
when used In place of the drug drink
coffee. Among my friends there are
those who tell roe of relief from kidney
trouble, neuralgia and eczema by leaving
off coffee and using Postum and I have
even known It to ease rheumatic pains In
limbs.
"I really believe these statements for
since I cut out coffee and used Postum I
never peem to have an ache or pain and I
would not dare go back to the old coffee
again. Not only myself but my family
use Postum exclusively and we know
there is no hot beverage that can take its
place. Nearly seven years steady use of
Postum convinces mo I know what I am
talking about when I say it is food as
well as drink and most valuable to build
up the system." -Name given by Postum

venting a quorum, they are subject to
arrest and may be forced to attend.
They also will have to face an indignant
public In their effort -to prevent the
election. Rev. E. E. McVlckcrs. pastor
of the United Evangelical Church, led
the fight at the election which declared
St. -Johns a dry town, and it Is generally
supposed he has been behind the fili
bustering proceedings to, prevent Edwards
from resigning.
RENEW EUROPEAN FORESTS
Seeds of Oregon Evergreens Being
Gathered for Tills Purpose.
Professor Thomas Howe, botanist and
author of a work on the flora of tho
coast, and A. F. Miller, of Sellwood. re
turned last evening from Mount Hood and
vicinity, where they went to ascertain
the condition of trees and prospects for
gathering seeds of the evergreens of this'
state In October, when they will go back
there for that purpose. They will then
gather seeds from the different varieties
of the pine, cedar and hemlock for ship
ment to Germany, and other countries of
Europe, where the governments replant
the forests that have been destroyed.
Mr. Miller has been collecting seeds of
fine Oregon trees for the post thirty
years for the German government, main
ly about Mount Hood and In the Cascade
range. He says that there Is great de
mand for the seeds of Oregon pine, cedar,
homlock and other evergreens, which
grow to great perfection at Mount
Hood.
"The German government," says Mr.
Miller, "Is renewing the depleted forests
of that country from the seeds obtained
In this country- For many years the
people there and In other European coun
tries were as careless as wc now are of
our groat forests, but tho govern
ments have taken hold and are
renewing forests. Thousands of Oregon
evergreens have been planted in Ger
many, and more are being planted every
year. First nurseries are set out from
the seeds gathered and trees started,
which are transplanted thickly. These
are then thinned down as they become
thrifty. There are forests of Oregon
evergreen growing all over Germany and
Europe."

"Worth of Jewels.
A trunk containing $10,000 -worth of Jew
elry belonging to a Chicago wholesale
Jewelry house and In possession of S. H.
Hess, a traveling man for the firm, has
been stolen somewhere between Tacoma
and Portland. When Hess arrived on
Northern Pacific Train No. 7, he went to
the Portland Hotel and showed the check
for his trunk, which had been sent ahead
on another section. A trunk not con
taining the Jewels and entirely unlike the
one checked at Tacoma was brought to
his room. The check possessed by Hess
and the one on tho bogus trunk boro the
same numbers. Hess believes that the
checks were changed between Tacoma
and Portland.
A soarch In tho baggage-room at the.

trunk. Hess then reported the loss to
