New Record Made in

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.
Three Churches May Unite.
CHICAGO. Oct. 29 Three influential
Baptist churches of the West Side have
devised a plan to consolidate for the pur
pose of solving the city problem, which
has made the existence of some of the
churches near the heart of the city a
question of a hard struggle. Believing
that In union there Is strength, and deep
ly conscious of the encroachments fac
tories and a foreign and unchristian
population are making on the church
territories, the consolidated plan was
discussed freely and favorably In the
three churches yesterday by pastors and
congregation.. No opposition has appeared.

J FTER being released from the Coun

year for larceny. A. Stevens decided to
go into the fuel business. Accordingly,
he set out yesterday to find a location.
He located coal bunkers near the Eastern
& Western Lumber Mills, and engaged an
express wagon to make deliveries.
The expressman arrived at the bunkers
and began loading the coal, when L. Vey

Stevens vowed that he was within his
rights, but Mr. Veysey held an opposite
opinion, and telephoned police headquar
ters for the patrol wagon.
While the wagon rumbled over the
rough, unpaved roads to the coal yards.
Veysey's employes held Mr. Stevens and
helped him to step into the wagon when
U arrived. Policeman Robson did the rest
by escorting Stevens back to the City

SHOT 111 II CORN FIELD
TOCXG GIRL MURDERED BE
FORE MOTHER ASD SISTER.
Butcher Who Formerly Worked, for
the Father Js Suspected and
Is Being Ranted For. '
SANTA MARIA, Cal. Oct 29. The
little village of Nlpomov about five
miles from Santa Maria, was startled
by an atrocious murder this afternoon.
Mrs. Lawrence Hourhan. with her two
young daughters, was out in the corn
field back of their ranchhouse husk
ing corn about 4:30 o'clock. 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.
