rilE MORXIXG OKEGONIAN, TUESDAY, TU?TE 9, 1V08,
ROND TO SUCCEED
CAPTAIN
WEU
Commander of Buffalo May Be
Ordered to the Thirteenth
Lighthouse District.
OFFICIAL ORDERS NOT OUT
Change Will Take Place About July
1 Wcrlich Is Assigned to Sea
Duty and May Command
the Charleston.
Commander Rond, et present In charge
of the United States cruiser Buffalo, will
probably be the successor of ,Commander
"IVerlich, In charge of the Thirteenth
Lighthouse District. While the infor
mation has not been conveyed in official
orders, it is understood by Naval officers
that such is the case. Official informa
tion on the subject -will be issued shortly,
as Commander Werllch is under orders
to be ready to leave July 1.
The Thirteenth District is one of the
most Important In the Lighthouse De
partment. The Coast line is larger than
the united districts on the Atlantic sea
board. From the California lino to Nome,
Including Southeastern Alaska, is taken
In it. The Inspector is also the distribu
ting officer and has large funds to ac
count for. It will require several days
after the arrival of the new Inspector to
arrange matters for the transfer.
Commander Werllch has been on shore
duty a little longer than ordinary and is
one of three officers who are in line for
the cruiser Charleston as a command.
That vessel will be open July 1, as Cap
tain Beatty has been ordered East. Dur
ing the period in which Commander Wer
lich lias had charge of the district he has
made a number of important suggestions
to the Department, which have been
adopted. The principal one is the in
stallation of ga engines at all Isolated
lights for the purpose of working a com
pressor for the fog signals. This will
work a great savins in the water supply
of the posts which depend entirely on
the rainfall.
BREAKWATER STAYS OX RUN"
C. J. MiHIs Says Steamer Will Con
tinue to Slake Coos Bay.
C. J. Millis, vice-president and general
manager of the Coos Bay, Roseburg &
Eastern Railroad & Navigation Company,
was in Portland yesterday, coming here
to meet his daughter, Mabel, who has re
turned from Cornell University, where she
hae taken a year in music. Mr. Millis is
well known In Portland, where he was
until a year ago livestock agent for the
O. R. & X. Co. As manager of the Har
riman property in Coos County, he makes
his headquarters at Marshlield. He is
also manager for the Portland & Coos
Bay steamship line and the Beaver Hill
Coal Company, all Harriman properties.
Coos County has, apparently, not heard
of the financial depression, for Mr. Millis
says business in general on his road has
been better during the past month than
during the corresponding month of last
year. The steamer business, says Mr.
Millie, Is hardly up to the traffic handled
by the other interest, one reason being
that the movement of traffic into the
Coos country is not quite as heavy this
seasons as it was last.
"Our coal mines are being developed in
great shape," said Mr. Millis. "Large
quantities of the coal are being shipped to
San Francisco by the steamer Czarina.
"The statement has been made that we
. are making preparations to take the
steamer Breakwater off the Portland run,
but this is not the case. We shall leave
the boat on the Portland route Just as
long as there Is traffic for her, and we
certainly do not contemplate withdrawing
her. The steamer has made 61 round trips
between Portland and the Coos Bay ports
during the past fiscal year. There was
no delay whatever at either bar. She is
the only steamer on the Oregon coast that
crossed cither of the two bars on Janu
ary 4 and 5 of this year, when there was
exceptionally heavy weather, other ves
sels being bar-bound."
FOUR SHIPS ARRIVE OUT
Grain-Carriers From the Colombia
Reach Port the Same Bay.
Four sailing vessels from Portland have
been reported as arriving out. They are
the German ships Marie Hackfeld and
Gertrude, , the French bark Eugene
Schneider and the British bark Large
Bay. The vessels sailed from Portland
within a week of each other and all ar
rived on the same day. The shortest
passage was made in 133 days, by the
French craft.
The sailing of the German ships was a
tie game. The Gertrude and the Marie
Hackfeld crossed the bar on the same
day (January 24) and one reported at
Falmouth and one at Ipswich. Both car
ried cargoes of grain. The Marie Hach
feld carried a part cargo of barley and
the Gertrude all wheat. Both vessels
finished loading on the same day, cleared
on the same day, sailed the same day and
arrived out on the same day.

HILL HILL NOT
BE PROSECUTED
Court Dismisses Indictments
Against Vice-President of
Wrecked Bank.
NO EVIDENCE AGAINST HIM
District Attorney Will Iieave Other
Prosecutions in Connection With
the Title Bank Failure
to Cameron.
The four indictments which have rest
ed against George H. Hill, vice-president
of the defunct Title Guarantee & Trust
Company, since last November, were dis
missed by Presiding Judge Gantenbein
in the Circuit Court yesterday morning.
This action was taken upon the recom
mendation of Deputy District Attorney
Bert Haney, who said that a thorough
examination of the books of the Title
Guarantee & Trust Company failed to
show that Hill was responsible for any
of the shady transactions carried on by
his colleagues. Hill did not appear In
the courtroom, ex-Senator Joseph Si
mon representing him.
Hill was jointly indicted with J. Thor
burn Ross, T. T. Burkhart and John E.
Aitchison. He was never arraigned by
the District Attorney, however, and never
entered his plea. Three of the charges
against him alleged larceny, and one
charged that he was guilty of receiving
deposits after the bank was known to
be insolvent. The change of venue
granted the three bank officials did" not
affect Hill, but the docket of the local
Circuit Court has now been cleared of
the Title Bank cases.
It will be one of Judge Cameron's tasks,
when he assumes the District Attorney
ship, to prosecute the other bank offi
cials. The office will be turned over to
him by District Attorney Manning on
July 6. The case of T. T. Burkhart
comes to trial at Salem during the July
term of course. Mr. Manning will turn
over to Judge Cameron all the informa
tion and evidence against the officials
which he has at hand.
Mr. Mannlrlg said yesterday that he
does not expect to indict George A. Steel,
State Treasurer, on a charge similar to
those filed against the bank officers. The
reason, he said, was that the people have
declared themselves in favor of the grand
jury system, which will take the power
of returning indictments out of the
hands, of one man. Mr. Manning said he
also felt that to return an indictment
against Steel might be construed as an
effort to embarrass his successor in
office.
The law putting . in force the grand
jury system will go into effect as soon
as the Governor formally receives the
official returns of the vote cast, and
issues his proclamation. Mr. Manning
said that he believes Judge Cameron will
do his duty as District attorney. ,-I
have not yet seen him except -to con
gratulate him on his election," concluded
Mr. Manning.
SAVES HER LIFE BY SPRINTING
Mrs. Pygall, in Divorce Suit, Says
Husband Chased Her With Knife.
That S. H. Pygall drew a knife and
threatened to kill his wife, that he told
her he would shoot her, and emphasized
the threat by thrusting a revolver in her
face, that he struck her with an ax, and
at another time knocked her down with
a blow from his clenched fist, are some
of the allegations which Mrs. Bell Pygall
makes in a complaint for divorce. The
suit has been filed through her attorney
in the Circuit Court, The Pygalls married
September 26,- 1905. Two months later
their troubles begun, according to Mrs.
Pygall, as she says it was in November
of that year that her husband used the
ax to drive her away from the house.
She says that in those two months he
had contracted the habit of drunkenness.
The abuse continued until In July, 1906,
he grew angry because she would not
give him money, and gave her a stinging
blow in the face. She says he then drew
a knife, and brandishing it over her head
like a cannibal from the South Sea
Islands, threatened, between his curses, to
kill her. As she could rua faster than
Pygall, she escaped.
The next outbreak which is recorded
occurred October 7, 1907. This time
Pygall's ire was aroused because his wife
had secured a lock box at the postoffice,
and he was unable to get her mail. This
was the time he knocked her down with
a blow in the face. She was then com
pelled to look down the barrel of a re
volver while the angry Pygall told her
he -would pull the trigger if she "did not
write out a check for him at once. Again
Mrs. Pygall's screams and fleet footed
ness saved her. The affair was reported
to the police.
Mrs. Pygall says she earned $15 "by
working out, and that Pygall stole the
money from her purse. She says he has
promised many times to do better, but
that his conduct has grown worse, until
she is afraid he will take her life. She
says that although he is a strong, able
bodied man she has been compelled to
support him. She asks $50 attorneys'
fees and $5 a week alimony for one year.
SCES FOB IXSS OF HUSBAND
Widow Brings Action Against Hail
road and Terminal Company.
While Frederick A. Beiersdorf was
operating a handcar with two companions
on June 8, 1906, a Southern Pacific train
suddenly ran them down. Beiersdorf sus
tained injuries from which he died June
29, three weeks later. As a result Jose
phine Beiersdorf, the' widow, has brought
suit In the Circuit Court against the
Southern Pacific Terminal Company to re
cover $5000 damages.
The accident occurred In the terminal
yards, between the Union Depot and the
Steel bridge. The three men were pro
pelling the handcar toward the bridge on
the Northern Pacific tracks. A three
story brick building and high board fence
obstruct the view at this particular place,
so that they did not see a train which
was approaching on the Southern Pacific
track. Just as they crossed the Southern
Pacific track the train crashed into- them.
It is alleged. It is further asserted that
'no whistle was sounded, and that no bell
was being rung. The train was running
at a high rate of speed, says the com
plaint, in excess of 12 miles and hour.
RAILWAY COMPANY IS SUED
M. M. Donohoe Seeks to' Recover
$5224 Damages.
Suits against the Portland Railway
Company to recover $5224 damages
because M. M. Donohoe was thrown
from an ice wagon in a collision with a
streetcar, is on trial before Judge Cle
land. In "the Circuit Court. The acci
dent occurred at Seventh and Burnslde
streets early last February. The wagon
was being- driven south on Seventh
street at about S:30 in the afternoon
by W. Harrigan. Donohoe was on the
seat with the driver. It is alleged that
the car (No. 183) was speeding east
on Burnside street at more than 12
miles an hour.
The railroad company asserts In de
fense that the car was equipped with
proper brakes; that It was running at
a moderate speed; that the motorman
was sounding the gong continuously,
and that he was keeping a lookout
ahead. It is the company's contention
that Harrlgan drove the ice wagon
recklessly hpon the track when the car
was at the west crosswalk of Seventn
street.
MRS. KCXZ GETS NEW' TRIAL
Sues O. R. & X. Co. for $5000 Dam
ages for Death of Husband.
Five thousand dollars for the loss
of David H. Kunz' life, and $500 for a
load of pumpkins, a team, harness and
wagon are the sums demanded by
Martha M. Kunz, the widow, in her
suit against the Oregon Railroad &
Navigation Company. The suit is on
trial before Judge Bronaugh In the
Circuit Court. Besides these amounts,
the woman demands $245.75 for funeral
expenses, making a total of $5745.75.
The suit was brought to trial two
years ago before Judge ' Cleland, who
upheld a motion by the railroad com
pany for a nonsuit. This decision was
reversed by the Supreme Court, and
the case sent back for a new trial.
Kunz -was -killed by the "Portland
Flyer" at the Sandy Road crossing be
tween 7 and 8 A. M., November 21,
1904. It is alleged by the widow that
the train was running 40 miles an hour,
while a city ordinance in effect at that
time provided that trains run only six
miles an hour within the city limits.
No whistle was blown, and no bell
rung, it is asserted.
Testimony taken yesterday developed
the fact that at that time a house and
growth of brush obstructed the view
up the track, which makes a curve at
this point. It is the contention of the
company that Kunz did not use proper
caution, but started to cross the track
without looking or listening.
Sues to Collect Judgment.
Suit to recover $1170.25 has been filed in
the Circuit Court by Tyson Kinsell against
N. D. Thomas. It is asserted that James
Humphrey obtained judgment against
Thomas in the Circuit Court for $529 in a
former suit. Interest at 10 per cent from
April, 1896, was to be added. Kinsell says
the claim was assigned o him by Hum
phrey, and demands judgment.
BY SEPTEMBER 1 WILL BE COM
PLETED TO KLAMATH LAKE.
Delegation Visits Portland to Become
Familiar With Methods of the
Chamber of Commerce.
A party of 12 business men of Klamath
Falls arrived in Portland yesterday and
were the guests during the afternoon of
the Portland Commercial Club. The
visitors have come to Portland for the
purpose of Investigating the methods
in use In the various commercial bodies
of the city, with the idea of embody
ing any new features which may be
adopted with advantage by the Chamber
of Commerce of Klamath Falls. The
delegation consisted ' of the following:
W. A Dalzell, president of the Cham
ber of Commerce; Judge George T.
Baldwin, E. B. Hall, Alexander Martin,
Jr., C. H. Wlthrow, K: R. Reames, II.
P. GalarneauT Earl Whitlock, u. T.
Oliver, L. F. Willis, R. S. Brigham and
G. Heitkemper, Jr.
All of the members of the party had
much to say regarding the development
work which is being carried on in that
region. Regarding the railroad construc
tion now being carried on E. B. Hall, a
member of the party, said:
"Over 2000 men are now working on the
new line from Weed to Klamath. Sep
tember 1 will see the road completed to
Klamath Lake, when it will only be
necessary for one to step from the train
onto a boat, making the trip both an
easy and very agreeable one, and equal
ly benefitting us from a freight stand
point. Two dredgers are at work on
the roadbed through the marsh. No one
imagines that the California & North
eastern will stop at Klamath Falls, but
there is a conviction on all sides that
it will build on through to Portland.
"Then the contract for the South Canal
has beenlet to Maney Bros., who have
executed some of the largest contracts
on the Coast In railroad and other lines.
Our wonderful irrigation opportunities
have created a change of sentiment
throughout our section. Fictitious" city
values have disappeared and every effort
is being made to attract the farmer on
the broad view that the cities will take
care of themselves. Heavy draft horses
ar being raised in large numbers, and
the whole region has become deeply in
terested in the great packing plants to
be built in Portland.
"Stock has put lots of money into the
ranchers' pockerts with us. Twenty
three thousand head of cattle, 40,000 head
of sheep and 2500 head of horses and
mules were marked from there this past
year alone.
"I ought to have mentioned the im
mense electric plant being installed by
Moore Bros. Already It has been equipped
for service between Klamath Falls and
Bonanza, and work on the line to Mer

His Body Distorted and Racked
With Rheumatism for Two
Years This Young
Man Now Walks
and Works.
For a generation Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills have been curing rheumatism and
other diseases caused by poor blood and
during that time certain cures have been
published that were so marvelous in
their nature that they have been termed
modern miracles. Such a cure was that
of Charles Calhoun, Jr., now living
at Capron, N. Y., and employed in a
mill there. The facts in the case are
widely known in the neighborhood in
which Mr. Calhoun lives and the cure
is regarded locally as nothing short of
miraculous.
When the Calhoun family was living
at Winfleld, X. Y., some years ago the
young man was taken sick. "Our family
doctor pronounced it inflammatory
rheumatism," says Mr. Calhoun, "and
he attended mb for about a year. For
nine months I was confined to the bed
and in such agony that I could not bear
the weight of the sheets nor to have
anyone touch me. I could not moTa
myself at all.
"The rheumatism was complicated
with a nervaus trouble resembling St.
Vitus' dance, my limbs and head jerked
and I suffered all the agonies possible.
Blisters were applied to my knees untii
they left scars but I could not feel them.
My fingers began to draw out of shape
and get stiff.
"In spite of the doctor's treatment and
all the medicine I took I kept getting
worse. My feet swelled so that I could
not get a stocking on and I could not
straighten up at all. Finally the doctor
told my father- he could "do nothing
more for me.
"At this time Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
were recommended to me and I found
relief in the first box. After taking
three boxes I could walk. I continued
to take them steadily until I was cured.
That was in 1895. I have worked every
day for years now and am entirely well
and have no trace of my old trouble
whatever."
Our free pamphlet, "Diseases of the
Blood" gives further information about
the treatment of rheumatism.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all
druggists, or Rent by mail, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cents per box; six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.

Fotvy Treatment.
If you were to hack' your finger or
scald your arm, you would apply some
healing remedy as soon as possible,
wouldn't you?
That would bo good common sense
and it would bring the quickest relief.
You surely would never think of drink
ing medicine or doctoring the blood to
cure a surface affliction.
It's just the same principle with dis
eases of the skin. Kczema, psoriasis,
salt rheum and barber's itch can be
cured and cured easily if you strike
risht at the trouble as you do with a
cut or burn.
The cause of itching, burning skin
diseases, according to modern science,
is a germ which feeds upon the weaker
parts of the skin. To kill these skin
bacilli which produce the itching sores
and uscly red blotches, use the famous
prescription of oil of wintergreen,
glycerine and thymol, commonly known
as D. D. D. Prescription. This mild
liquid was advocated by a prominent
skin specialist. Dr. Dennis, of Chicago,
long before it was adopted generally.
This liquid is called D. D. D. Prescrip
tion. It is a positive specific for all
skin diseases.

My Straightforward Proposition
TO
I would rather Eive up my practice than indulge
in either pirawwk or make-believe cure. I have
devoted twenty years to earnest and conscitntlous
endeavor to the unravelment of onie of the most
perplexing problems that ever confronted the profes
sion, and I believe that I have attained the llmlt-of
medical possibilities in my particular branch of
practice.
I do not treat symptoms. I treat
to euro the disease behind the symp
toms. If the case presents even tha
slightest feature upon which I nave
doubt, or it 1 recognize incurable
complications I positively refuse
treatment.
I have brought to light the true
nature of men's diseases and the
causes of the symptoms they present.
In addition. I have, by the sclcntllic
blendina- of drugs, produced remedies
that meet every condition that It
iifmi Dosslble to cure. Even the
slightest relief, under my treatment. ..., .i,
Is genuine improvement a part of the permanent cure that Is to follow. Thera
is no cause to hesitate. Consultatlon'costs nothing, and I will not offer my
services unless I can cure you.
Weakness Wrecks Men's Lives
Many a youth of splendid promise has failed in life because of some
weakness, the nature of which made him delay seeking medical aid until It
had become serious, an! greatly Injured his life's opportunities. I have
seen thousands of these cases, and I have heard the story of their suffering.
Vsually there Is also a hlBtory of Incompetent treatment by family doctors,
patent medicines, electric belts, and unprincipled medical Institutes and so
called "specialists."
What Weakness Really Is
There is some functional derangement, the direct result of inflam
mation enlargement or excessive sensitiveness of the PROSTATE GLAND,
brought on by earlv dissipation or resulting from Improperly treated con
tracted disorder. This condition CANNOT POSSIBLY be removed by Inter
nal medicines, and any tonic system of treatment that stimulates the activ
ity of the function can but result In aggravating the real ailment. This Is
a scientific truth I have ascertained after a careful and scientific study and
unoii which my own original system of treatment Is based. I employ neither
tonics, stimulants jior electric belts. I treat by LOCAI, DIRECT METHODS
Mclnslvelv. and my success in curing even those cases that others have failed
to temporarily relieve with their tonics is CONCLUSIVK EVIDENCE that
my method Is the only possible means of a COMPLETE, RADICAL AND PER
MANENT CUKE.
My Guarantee Is Worth Something
I do not care what your experienve has been with other treatments,
what guarantees you have and what promises were unfulfilled In the pal,
a. unsuccessful, unscientific treatment h and unreliable conpcrns are in no
way a reflection upm HONEST, TRUSTWORTHY BUSINESS METHODS
lived up to In this city by mo for TWENTY YEARS. I have an estab
lished reputation, and my guarantee means that my patients are INDIS
PUTABLY INSURED of success in their case. There Is all the difference
In the world between a guarantee of this kind and the promise of those
mushroom concerns which are continually falling- In businefs. I repeat my
straightforward, square proposition to WAIT FOR MY FEE UNTIL THE
CURE IS EFFECTED. '
