Vii.la-Avenue Widenikg. The Monta
vllla Hoard of Trade has adopted active
measures for pushing the proceedings for
making Villa avenue 80 feet wide from
Montavilla to the west line of the Ladd
farm. At the meeting Tuesday night a
committee was appointed to confer with
the City Engineer about lowering the
grade of the avenue from West avenue
tastward, and also to take aggressive
measures to expedite the proceedings for
the widening. Opposition to the widening
through Center Addition has subsided, so
H Is announced, and the proceedings in
clude the opening of the street throsigh
the Laild fnrm. In order to reduce the
burden of the cost of widening the street
It s proposed to assess property for a dis
tance of 1000 feet on each side of the
street on the ground that the benefit Is
distributed. tht far. There are some
buildings in Montavilla to move back to
conform to the new street line, but in
Center Addition there are quite a num
ber to move. By assessing property 1000
feet on each side of the street the burden
will be very light.
New Pavino ' Plant. The Pacific
Bridge Company has included In Its
dredging plant at East Salmon end Water
street a plant for the manufacture of bi
tuminous paving material. It Is an
nounced that this plant will be completed
eo it can turn out bituminous material
for hard-surface pavement by the first of
the year for Portland streets, at a rate
nearly one-half charged by other paving
companies operating in the city. On the
dock is a targe furnace and room for mix
ing crushed rock with the bituminous
stuff. The plant stands on the dock
built at the foot of Kast Salmon street
and is housed with corrugated galvanized
iron. Manager George Simon announces
that an expert has been engaged to pre
pare specflcatlons for machinery and
crusher required in the plant. Practically
all the rock used may be obtained from
the bottom of the Willamette River, ex
cept the rock tobe crushed. If the
company can reduce the cost of hard
surface pavement even one-half iV Is the
concern many property-owners are look
ing for.

HITS OFFICER WITH SLEDGE
ITALIAN WOMAN" ATTACKS
GEORGE B. MURRAY.
janitors, it 'is said by authorities that
there should be a new and modern sys
tem of bubbling fountains Installed, which
would Insure absolute freedom from dan
ger as to infection.
Mrs. Rose DeClccl Fells With Ter
rific Blow Patrolman Who
Comes to Arrest Her;
Mrs. Rose DeClccio, an Italian wom
an with a fondness for trouble, laid
out Patrolman George B. Murray with
a sledgehammer, while that officer was
trying to arrest her, late yesterday
afternoon. Catching the officer un
awares, she struck him a terrific blow
from behind and but for his helmet the
officer's skull would undoubtedly have
been fractured.
Although felled by the blow, Murray
got up at once, disarmed the woman,
overpowered her and secured her with
handcuffs. Then he fainted from loss
of blood. Passers-by held the woman
until the patrol wagon arrived. Mur
ray was hurried to St. Vincent Hos
pital, it being feared his injuries were
serious. City Physician Ziegler found,
however, that the wound was not dan
gerous and last night the officer was
taken home.
Mrs. DeCiccio was wanted by the po
lice on a charge of threatening to kill
her husband. Divorce proceedings are
pending and the woman has been very
troublesome for some time past, mak
ing dire threats at all who incurred her
dislike.
When the husband swore to a com
plaint against his wife, early in the
afternoon, it was given to Murray for
service. He located the woman at her
home, at the southeast corner of rand
avenue and East Stark street. She
disappeared into the house as he ap
proached. Her husband was at the place and
the officer paused to talk with DeCic
cio. While he was so engaged the
woman armed herself with a sledge
hammer weighing ten pounds, slipped
up behind the officer and struck him
a murderous blow on top of the head.
He was stunned and fell to the ground,
but got up before the woman could
strike a second blow, and grappled
with her. After a struggle he got her
hands fastened and then fainted from
the pain and loss of blood.
The woman is being held at the City
Jail on a charge of assault with a dan
gerous weapon. Murray will not be
able to report for duty this week.
CUPS TO BE SUSPENDED
Move to Lessen Danger of Infection
of School Drinking Vessels.
A' big step toward better health condi
tions In the public schools of Portland
has been taken by the Board of Educa
tion, which has ordered that all drinking
cups shall be suspended, instead of being
allowed to lie together under the faucets,
as heretofore. City Health Officer Pohl
called attention to the matter, and the
directors at once recognized the merit
in her contention against the old system.
"There is a grave danger in allowing
the drinking cups to lie together under
the faucets." said Dr. Pohl. "If a child
has diphtheria or tother contagious dis
ease, afterwards throwing, the water over
all the other cups, it immediately infects
the whole set of cups and becomes a pos
itive menace to health. Thus is the dis
ease spread at a rapid rate throughout
the school, and it becomes an epidemic,
perhaps. Just through one child's con
tamination." ,
While the danger of contagion is great
ly decreased by the new order, if carried
Into effect properly by the principals and
MOT READY TO TAKE OATH
Judge Morrow Finishing Private
Business Before Going on Bench.
Whether Judge R. G. Morrow will
qualify and take the oath of office this
week or next, or whether his unfin
ished business will occupy his atten
tion for another month, he would not
say last night. He said that he had
several cases in which he is appearing
as attorney which could not be turned
over to another. When asked how nu
merous these were, he would not un
dertake to say.
Judge Morrow said that he was sure
he could not qualify this week, as he
will go to Tacoma to attend a meeting
of the United Artisans.
Judge Thomas O'Day, whom Judge
Morrow was elected to succeed, said in
court yesterday that he expected to
have a talk with Judge Morrow this
week to see if he would not qualify
soon. Judge O'Day stepped down from
the bench July 18, surrendering it to
Judge Mororw after the former had
held it two weeks over his term as an
accommodation to his successor. Judge
O'Day wishes, he says, to act as attor
ney In a number of suits, but cannot
do so while he remains on the bench.
Judge Morrow said last night that
he had a perfect understanding with
Judge O'Day, and that the latter had
consented to remain on the bench until
Judge Morrow should wind up his af
fairs as an attorney.
