The preliminary examination of William McCallig, the auto driver who ran down and killed little Ellis Korklin ten days ago, was postponed for one day when called before Judge Cameron yesterday morning. Attorney Sweek, representing McCaliig, was on hand to request a post ponement, but his request was vigorously opposed by Deputy District Attorney Haney. "The case was originally set for Tues day," said Mr. Haney, "and was changed to today at Mr. Sweek's request. We wish to go ahead with this case and will not consent to any unnecessary delay." The defendant's lawyer arose to say ho had not had an opportunity to familiarize himself with the case, and that all wit nesses were on hand. Judge Cameron then offered to take the case up during the afternoon, but this did not suit the convenience of counsel for the defense. Mr. Haney stated that under the circumstances he would agree to a postponement for one day, and this was accepted. He also Insisted that an hour for the hearing be set, and 9 o'clock A. M. was named. Sad Little Tragedy of Hot Sunday Night Plucky Woman Executes Hent-Maddt-ncd Terrier and Blue coat Look on. ASMALL fox terrier, driven mad by the heat, a burly, brown-eyed, ten derhearted policeman, a plucky lady, and a few neighbors, were principals in an exciting little tragedy down on Burnside street, late Sunday night. In yesterday's Oregonlan It was noted that a policeman hud clubbed a dog and that the trained nurse took the deg into the basement and chloro formed it to keep the policeman from shooting it, but yesterday the true story leaked out. The policeman did not club the dog, and the trained nurse was away, but the dog was killed Just the same. About 7 o'clock Sunday evening a woman who requests that her name be withheld, noticed her daughter's dog, a small fox terrier, acting queerly, and shut him in the kitchen. Not desiring to alarm her husband, who is very ill, she telephoned to police headquarters for a policeman to come and kill the dog. and to the nurse, who was away, to come home, and then went to at tend her husband. The terrier began to demolish things in the kitchen and to yelp plteously. This attracted the neighbors, and one of them reached through the bathroom window and knocked the dog over with a stick. At this juncture the bluecoat arrived. He was advised to shoot, but declared he could not hit it. Two hours had gone by since the can ine entered the kitchen, and by this time the nurse arrived. Leaving the nurse with the sick man, the plucky housewife took a blanket and entered the kitchen, shut the door and threw the blanket over the dog. Having captured it she took it under her arm and coming to the door asked the min ion of the law to take It to the park and kill it. but the man in the blue uniform would not. The captor of the dog announced that she had a bottle of,hloroform and that If some one of the bystanders would as sist her she would chloroform the maddened creature. This was done. The policeman was requested to take the dog to the park and make sure of its end by shooting It. "And get the horse laugh for shooting a dead dog? No, sir!" and the bluecoat turned away. Two neighbors finished the execution with clubs. Milu aukie Country Club. Eastern and Seattle races. Take Sell wood or Oregon City car. starting from First and Alder street. A Talk with pbHbISsb BUFF WANTS PAY James McDonald Brings Suit to Mandamus Mayor. SALARY FOR MAY HELD UP Lane Vetoed Ordinance Creating New Municipal Court Officer, but Council Passed BUI Over His Head Court News. James McDonald, Janitor and bailiff in the Municipal Court, yesterday, through his attorneys, John F. Logan and John C. Shlllock, filed a mandamus suit In the State Circuit Court against Mayor Lane, to compel the Mayor to sign his salary warrant for $75. Judge Gantenbein would not sign the order for a writ of mandamus but told Mr. Shlllock he would look Into the ques tion and render a decision this morning. The complaint filed by McDonald recites that on May 2. 1900, the City Council passed an ordinance appointing him to have general supervision of the Municipal Courtroom as janitor, and also to attend the court and act as bailiff. The ordinance was vetoed by Mayor Lane and was passed over his head by the votes of Councilmen Annand, Belding, Bennett, Dunning, Gray, Kellaher, Mas ters, Preston, Wallace and Wills. Those voting nay were Councilmen Vaughn and Sharkey. A monthly salary warrant for $75 was drawn June 14, In favor of Mr. McDonald and certified to by City Auditor Devlin. Mayor Lane, who still thinks the position Is an unnecessary one, refused to affix his signature to the warrant, and the author ity of the court to compel him to do so will be tried out In the suit just filed.

Lad Xot Provided For Since Father's Arrest for Bigamy. Lorenzo Joseph Dame, who, it is al leged, married Maria Rosetta, the daugh ter of -H. Jutcliffe under the name of Dane, and afterward was united In the holy bonds of wedlock to Myrtle Kelso, and who Is Incarcerated in the County Jail awaiting trial for polygamy, yester day encountered more trouble. Dame Is the father of a boy by his first wife, who, he says, died before he married Miss Sut cllffe. When he became the husband of Miss Sutcllffe It is said that a strong at Consumer Competition among brewers is keen. Perhaps you've noticed it You may not know what's back of it. Ypu have a right to know the facts. We have decided to print them. Some of the large brewers to reduce the cost of brewing use cheap materials. In place of Barley, the very soul and essence of perfect beer, they use Corn, because it is cheap. They further reduce the cost of production by not having ample storage facilities to properly age their beer. The result is beer that has little else but "Purity" and "Sterilization" to recommend it As a matter of fact nearly all beer is pure and properly sterilized. Budweiser The King of all Bottled Beers Budweiser is brewed from choicest Barley-Malt, the finest Hops, Imported from the province of Saaz, in Bohemia, Yeast of special culture, and a small percentage of Rice, v It is fermented in glass-enameled vats. It is lager ed (aged) from four to five months in glass-lined steel tanks. In fact, is in glass from "Kettle to the Lip." Our enormous storage capacity 600,000 barrels enables us to age our beer to full maturity, which accounts for its healtWulness and delicious flavor. We produce beer of such unquestioned superiority that discriminating consumers demand it It is for these reasons that Budweiser, although the highest in price, has a larger sale than all other bottled beers. Anheuser-Busch Brewing Ass'n tachment grew up between Mr. Sutcllffe and the child. Later, when Dame and his wife, who had previously been Miss Sut cllffe, separated. Dame sent the child to board with a family in Newberg. Since the arrest of Dame he failed to pay for the keeping of the boy, and the little fellow was sent by the family to Portland, and went to the home of Mr. Sutcllffe, who said he would not keep the child, because he had no authority to do so. He appealed to Marion R. John son, Clerk of the Juvenile Court, who will endeavor to straighten out the matter in some way, and see that the child is pro vided with a home. DIVORCE FOR DESERTED WIFE Judge Gantenbein Grants Belle Hol diman's Petition for Freedom. Belle Holdiman was divorced from Wil lard Holdiman by Judge Gantenbein yes terday, because of desertion. The couple were married in 1891, and the plaintiff testified that her husband abandoned her in Chicago in 1903. The evidence was cor roborated, as required by statute, and the decree was signed. Judge Gantenbein yesterday heard evi dence in the contested divorce suit of Carrie Erlckson against Eric Erlckson. The litigants have resided on a farm near Eugene for a long time, and have grown children. Mrs. Erlckson testified that her husband ill-treated her. He filed a cross bill charging her with infidelity, and names one Pursell as co-respondent. Mrs. Erlckson denied the charge, and the hus band will tell his story today.

WHICH EATS the more rapidly, an American with his knife and fork, or the queued Oriental with his chop sticks? The accepted records of human knowl edge does not note the answer to this subtle and absorbing question, although Mr. J. Hughes, a scientific gentleman who lives on East Seventh street, made a con scientious effort to add to the world's knowledge in this respect yesterday fore noon. Mr. Hughes, suffering from an attack of curiosity, went into the Chinese restau rant at Second and Alder streets for lunch. Some friend had told him some really good dishes were served there, and he wanted to get an Insight Into Oriental culinary methods. Ordering a delicious plate of chop suey, Mr. Hughes was complacently eating it when one of the pig-tailed waiters made a remark that seemed to him an exagger ation of the truth. The waiter said that It takes an American with his knife and fork just twice as long as It takes a Chi naman to eat with crude chopsticks. Mr. Hughes, on behalf of his country men, protested vigorously. He said he could consume the viands placed before him with far greater expediency than the St. Louis U. S. A.

Railroads Make Excursion Rate for Gathering, and Enjoyable Ses sion Is Promised. Portland advertising men will par ticipate in the convention of the Pa cific Coast Advertising Men's Associa tion, which will be "held at Victoria, July 20, 21 and 22. Considerable en thusiasm has been worked up by ad men of the Coast, and the coming ses sion promises to eclipse any former gathering of the association. R. M. Hall, vice president of the or ganization for Oregon, will go, as will B. I. Dasent and Tom Richardson. Others interested in the subject of ad vertising will probably attend from Portland. The Southern Pacific and the Northern Pacific have granted a rate of one fare for the round trip as far as Seattle from points In Oregon. Those who go on the jaunt are prom ised a good time, and business Is going to be given small consideration. There will be only two business sessions of a few hours each, while the remainder of the time will be taken up -with junketing. After a business session Friday afternoon, the ad men will leave on the Esqulmault & Nanaimo Railroad for Shawnigan Lake, 26 miles from Victoria, where dinner will be served at tie Strathccna Hotel. The remain der of the evening will be spent on the grounds and lake, the party leaving for Victoria by special train late in the evening. On Saturday there will be the other business session in the morning. In the afternoon special cars will be taken to The Gorge. Beacon Hill Park and Oak Bay. In the evening a Dutch sup per will be given at Oak Bay. The ad men will journey to Gorge Park by launch or train on Sunday, where a band concsrt will be given by the Fifth users of chopsticks. The Oriental failing to be convinced, Mr. Hughes suggested a test. He said he would engage In an eating contest with a heathen who had just sauntered In for his meal. At the waiter's suggestion he placed his gold watch on the table, in order that time might be kept on the contest. Mr. Hughes ate as he never ate before. It would have made a starving pointer mad with envy to see the East Slder put away the roast pig and chop suey. He concentrated all his attention on the meal and finished In about sad to say, his rec ord will never be known. Mr. Hughes looked up from his finished meal and a look of victory passed over his rotund face. Another look came, though, when he looked for his watch. It had mysteriously taken its departure Mr. Hughes demanded an explanation; he demanded his watch; in fact, he plead ed for it. But there was no one about the place that could speak English. The wait er who had Incited him to this costly con test was no longer able to speak except In the unintelligible guttural of China. As a last resort, Mr. Hughes rushed to the Police Station, in high excitement, and related the episode to the police. They will make an effort to get his timepiece back for him. the Regiment Band. In the evening the party will leave on the Seattle steam ers. The programme follows: "The Fishing Industry on the Atlantic and Pacific Coasts."
