Milner Sustains Knife Wound and a Black Eye. STEP-CHILDREN IN FIGHT Head of the Woodlawn School, Wife and Her Son and Daughter All Go to Station But Prefer "o Charges. A deep mystery surrounds the cause of the family disturbance which took place In the home of Frofessor Edgar A. Milner. principal of the Woodlawn School, late Saturday nlirht. Milner and his family live in a flat directly above a grocery store, at Ainsworth and Union avenues. nd at about 10 o'clock Saturday evening the people downstairs were alarmed by a yreat commotion In Milner's flat... accom panied by shrieks and calls for help. Po liceman Fatton was informed of the dis turbance and soon arrived on the scene. The trouble was practically over, but Mil ter was changing his clothes, the back of !iis coat being covered with blood. He had l black eye and was. preparing to eave the house when the policeman ar rested him. The whole family went down to the station, but none of the parties would lodge a complaint. It developed that Milner quarreled with 3ls wife and his two step-children, a boy tnd a girl, neither of whom Is over 17. to the rescue of their mother, and n the geneial mix-up which followed Mil ler was given black eye and received a around In the back with a large butcher tnlfe. The wound', however, was not se rious, and as no complaint was lodged Captain Slover was compelled to release :he prisoner. No details of the cause rould be learned from him. and neither lis wife nor children would say anything ibout the affair aside from the fact that klrs. Milner stated positively she would cave her husband. An Oregonlan reporter visited Professor Ullnar'a boms yesterday afternoon uid found the professor lying on a bed with a highly discolored right eye. He seemed to be ill, was apparently suffering from the effects of his wound, and positively refused to say anything. His stepson was by his side. The condition of the house plainly told the story of the combat the night before. Broken dishes were scat tered In all the rooms, furniture in dis order and the general upheaval were a mute evidence of the row. The quarrel awakened the whole neighborhood, which at first thought some one was being mur dered. The affair caused consternation In Woodlawn circles, as Mr. Milner Is prin cipal of the school, and doubt " was ex pressed yesterday whether he would be able to open the school this morning. The matter is deeply discussed by the citizens In the neighborhood and will, in all prob ability, be investigated. Record of Milner. Milner Is well known in Portland, hav ing been prominently identified with the schools for years. He. came here from Corvallis a dozen or more years ago. and at one time was teacher of mathematics In the High School. His irregular con duct at times attracted public notice, al though his record was good as an in structor. About two years ago he went to South Bend, Wash., with his wife, and while there engaged iu an altercation with her, during which it was charged he beat her badly. He was waited upon by a delega tion of citizens, who gave him the option of leaving town or being tarred and feath ered. He left. . , Attacks the Amendment Bill. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, pastor of Grace Methodist Episcopal Church, again attacked the proposed amendment to the local option law. . He reviewed an article ttublished by Ralph B. Moody, attorney of the Brewers' ' and Wholesale liquor Dealers' Association, and answered its statements. "A law written by saloonkeepers and for their exclusive benefit, backed by their organization and money." he said, "would not be expected to turn out much of a temperance document, and this amendment does not. No reasonable man would expect many restrictions on the saloon from that source, and this amend ment lets down the bars for an un trameled liquor traffic, and Is wholely in the Interest of that business. Nor would you e-xpect it to be pushed fairly. "This has been a campaign of misrep resentation: first the signatures to their petition were fraudulently secured by fhe use of a little circular misstating the purport of the bill; then the wording on the official ballot is a deceptive argu ment calculated to deceive the voter in the very act of casting his ballot: then when the state printed the proposed amendment the liquor men bad hired a clerk at the courthouse to fold a false and deceptive extra page in with the bill and make each voter think that the liquor argument was a part of the official document." AFTER THE PESTS Campaign Planned Against the Caterpillars; TREES MUST BE SPRAYED Pari? Green, Arsenate of Lead and Arsenic Sprays Are the Proper Materials AVith Which to Fight Insect Pests. J. H. Reid. horticultural commissioner for Multnomah, Clackamas.- Washington, Tillamook and Clatsop Counties, is pre paring for an extensive campaign for the general Improvement of fruit culture in his district. Mr. Reid succeeded W. K. Newell as commissioner, after be had been fruit Inspector of Multnomah and Clackamas Counties for nearly two years. His work as inspector is well known, and Is now bearing good results In these two counties. As commissioner in the five counties named. Mr. Reid Is allowed $100 for every three months, or $400 per year, which Is 50 times less than California spends for fruit supervision and about one-third as much as Washington give fruit commis sioners, so that the work here in Oregon is mainly a matter of love for betterment of fruit conditions. Mr. Reid figures out that the appropriation will pay bis ex penses and that he will be out his time. As he Is a man of ample means and deep ly interested in improving fruit culture, he expects to give all the time possible, regardless of whatever loss he may sus tain. Ten days of traveling in his district will about eat up his salary for three months. He has covered Clackamas Coun ty and most of Multnomah, and will start during the week for a tour In Clatsop and Columbia Counties, which may take up about ten days. Campaign of Education. The object of these tours, which will finally cover the five counties embraced in this jurisdiction, is to get into personal touch with fruit conditions, so that prac tical suggestions may be made to elim inate fruit pests. It is a sort of campaign of education to restore the quality of fruit. Much, was accomplished the past year along educational lines, more than in former years, and It Is hoped to do still more. Plans for institute work will come later, and where fruitgrowers want public meetings, provisions will be made for holding them. Mr. Reid's experience as inspector has enabled him to fortify him self on all the problems of -fruit pests and diseased trees, so that he can be more helpful than ever. On these questions Jte is an enthusiast, or, as he admits, a crank. Mr. Reid calls attentin to the approach of caterpillars. ' He found many In the fruit trees during his recent trip to Cor vallis. He says they are beginning to make their appearance to some extent at Mount Tabor, and advises the use of arsenic sprays, paris green and arsenate of lead. He calls attention the fact that bordeaux mixture Is to be used purely for fungoids, and not for worms at all. Mr. Reid thinks that by proper spraying with Insecticides, not fungicides, that the cat erpillars may be kept out of the orchards. ENDS SERMON WITH SOLO Evangelist Hart Uses the. Guitar at Second Baptist Church. At the Second Baptist Church, yester day morning, in the absence of Rev. S. C. Lapham, Evangelist Charles Hart occu pied the pulpit, and delivered a plain gospel talk, closing- with an effective solo with the- guitar. Mr. Hart emphasized the need of personal work on the part of Christians, the need of prayer and how to pray. 'He pointed out that there were moments when a word spoken would re sult in great good.: The commercial trav eler, he said, did not call all his custom ers together and talk to them in a body, but he talked to them in a personal man ner. And, the speaker urged, the personal element counted for much in Christian work. At the close of his sermon. Mr. Hart picked up the guitar from the platform and, accompanying himself, sang a solo, "Yielding to Christ." Every word of the song was enunciated clearly and reached every part of 'the auditorium, and ap peared to touch the congregation. It was en unusual thing to see a preacher in the pulpit with a guitar., but Mr. Hart used It most effectively. Bishop Preaches Three Sermons. Bfshop William Horn, T. D., of the Evangelical Association, had a busy day yesterday. In the morning he preached in the First German Evangelical Church, Eleventh and Clay streets; at 3 P. M:, he preached in the Lents Church; last night he occupied the pulpit of the First Eng lish Church. East Sixth and Market streets. Speaks of Divinity of Christ, Rev. H. C. Shaffer, of the United Brethren Church, East Fifteenth and Morrison streets, last night preached on "Unitarianism." He contended that the divinity of Christ was predicated from the Scriptures, and waa essential for Christianity. HIT BUSINESS MEN Suffragists Attack Signers of Protest. MAKE CAUSE WITH LABOR Declare That Corporate Interests Are United Against Giving the Ballot to Women for Selfish Reasons. Business men who signed the protest against the enfranchisement of the wo men of Oregon received practically the undivided attention of the speakers at the Hellig Theater yesterday afternoon at tie woman's suffrage meeting. Nearly all of the speakers devoted most of their address to scathing remarks directed at the statement. It was ridiculed, held up a an object of scorn and the allega tions made that It was nothing more than a manifestation of the opposition of the corporate interests. Dr. Clarence True Wilson, who has been identified in the fight against woman's suffrage, was also handed several hot shots by the women orators. Rev. Anna Shaw made a particularly bitter attack against the men who signed the statement. She said that they signed the protest solely from the standpoint of personal Interest and that their hands had not been guided by the heart or in telligence. She said that the opposition of the capitalistic interests was a good reason why the laboring men should unite in favor of woman's suffrage. Expected the Protest. H. W. Stone was the first speaker of the meetings which was attended by sev eral hundred persons. He said the cir culation of the protest was nothing more than was expected. He declared that the conservative corporations and finan cial institutions invariably opposed re form. George Spencer Clapham. of New Zea land, gave a brief description of woman's suffrage in his country, where he said the enfranchisement of women had been attended by the most beneficial results. Mrs. Ida Porter-Boyer gave statistics relative to the commercial and agricul tural activities of the states that had adopted woman suffrage as compared with Oregon. State Senator C. W. Not- tingham put himself on record as -favoring the cause . Dr. Anna Shaw's Statement. - Rev. Anna Shaw read part of the list of opposers on 'woman suffrage, and many of the signers she said represented the Eastern or California capital and the trusts. She called attention to the fact that Dr. Clarence True Wilson signed the statement and said he evidently did not realize that it was simply a business man's proposition. Many written questions were received, which were answered by Mrs, Mary C. C. Bradford, of Colorado. Among the questions was one inquiring' as to what errect the voting, of women would have upon their beauty. . ATTEMPT TO RUN MINES. Nonunion Men Taken to Steubenville by the Carload. STEUBENVILLE, O., May 20.-Two more carloads of nonunion men were brought into the neighborhood of the United States Coal Company's mines to day and tomorrow or Tuesday an at tempt will be made to operate the mines and run them nonunion. - No trouble was experienced by the men or the mine offi cials, although the strikers stood about in a somewhat sullen attitude. Another lot of nonunion men are expected tomor row, it was stated tonight. All the new arrivals are closely guarded by deputies, of which there are about 50 at the mines. The mtneworkers remain firm in their refusal to return to work, and today mass meetings, were held throughout the East ern Ohio district. Speeches were made by the mineworkers" 'leaders, advising them to be firm in their resolution to re main out. Death of J. M. McGregor. ASTORIA. Or.. May 20. fSpecial.) James M. McGregor, a Gray's River log ger, died at the hospital here this morn ing from apoplexy, after a long Illness. He was a native of Nova Scotia. 63 years of age and unmarried.

Sciatica Cured After Twenty Tears of Torture. For more than 20 years Mr. J. B. Mas sey. of 3322 Clinton street, Minneapolis. Minn., was tortured by sciatica. The pain and suffering which he endured during this time is beyond comprehension. Noth ing gave him any permanent relief until he used Chamberlain's Pain Balm. One application of that liniment relieved the pain and made sleep and rest possible, and less than one bottle has effected a permanent cure. Mr. Massey relates his experience for the benefit of others who may be similarly afflicted. If troubled with sciatica or rheumatism why not try a 25-cent bottle of Pain Balm and see for yourself how quickly it relieves the pain. For sale by all druggists. Frank L.
