New Record Made in Nailing on lath Alve Hurmetet Fixes SOO Slata to Celling; In TVi Minutes and Claims Championship. ALVB HURMTTTET is going about Portland with a swollen chest and the claim that he is the champion lath driver in the United States. He and his friends assert that he broke the world's record in this respect by placing 110 laths on a ceiling, with two nails to each lath, in minutes. He is as proud over his new record as an athlete who has executed some cham pion stunt In pole-vaulting or running. H:s friends and others who know of his jecori declare that he has a right to be proud of himself and believe that he is without an equal. Recently a bet was made that he could not drive 200 laths with two nails to each piece in eight minutes. His friends advised h'.m not to bet. believing that lf he did he would lose. a they felt sure he could' "not accomplish the remarkable feat. Yesterday afternoon in the pres ence of a large crowd the test was made. Hurmetet worked with lightning rapid'ty and from the start-it could be was to be established. When he had driven his 200 pieces, the watch was con sulted and it was seen that the work had been done in exactly 7 minutes. "STien it was announced to the crowd there was some cheering and Hurmetet was hailed as the champion lath driver of the world. But there are other men in Portland who claim to be somewhat proficient in the same line and it is not improbable that matches between the champion and aspir ants for the honor will be arranged.

They were accosted by. a man whom they think to have been Nat Hartnell, a butcher, who formerly worked for Mr. Hourhan. They paid no attention to him, not realizing that he was calling to them. A man in an automobile in the road nearby heard a shot fired and looking up be saw a man running and one of the girls lying on the ground. He fired at the fleeing man, but did not succeed in hitting him. He ran to the three women in the field and found tha eldest daughter, aged 16, on the ground, dying with a bullet hole through her head.' The mother and sister were in such a dazed condition that they could give no accurate ac count of the tragedy A large posse of men is out with the stricken father at its head searching for the murderer. Warrants are out for Nat Hartnell, the supposed murderer. FRANK L. SMITH MEAT CO. 22t Alder St., between 1st and 2d Bta.
