Councilman Wills will Introduce) an ordinance for the sewer system in Bellwood. between East Fifteenth and the river, the plans for which have been completed by the City Engineer. East of Kast Fifteenth street establishment of a sewer system Is a great problem that the future must work out. Councilman Wills says he cannot see a way out except to run a conduit along Johnson Creek to the Willamette River at Mll waukle. It would be Impracticable, he says, to cut a tunnel under Sell wood on account of the rocky formations that would make such an undertaking very expensive. He believes that It will be necessary to wait until the Ladd farm has been platted and then form a big district and run the conduit to the river bv way of Mllwaukle. Iioibu Recsfttchc. Rev. D. A.

XkuVt torget to lead Oaa Ilea, SHOT BY BROTHER Fred David, Aged 14, Victim of Strange Accident. YOUNGER LAD KILLS HIM Small Boys Playing- With Rifle "Which Was Supposed to Be Not Loaded Are Parties to Sad East Side) Tragedy. Fred David, a lad 14 years of age, was shot and killed by the discharge of a .25 caliber rifle which had been kicked by his brother. Robert David, aged J2 years, on the railway trestle at East Second and Salmon streets about 1 o'clock yesterday afternoon. That the shooting was accidental Is practically certain, for all the eye witnesses, principally boys of the same age of the deceased and his brother, are unanimous' on this point. According to the story told the po lice, and which was afterward cor roborated by the testimony of the boys before the Juvenile Court, the David boys had left their home at 164H Union avenue to go fishing with Virgil and Lafayette Copley, of 428 East Oak street and Joined them shortly after they had commenced fishing in the slough. On Joining the Copley boys, Fred David, who carried the rifle, said: "I'll bet I can shoot the button off your cap." addressing his remarks to Virgil Copley. With this he raised the gun and pulled the trigger, but the weapon failed to explode, and he laid the gun on the railway trestle. The boys had been fishing only a few min utes when the younger David changed his position and, moving along the ties of the trestle, his toe caught the ham mer of the rifle, which was discharged In some unaccountable manner. The bullet penetrated the back of - Fred David's head and caused Instant death. The boys did not realize what had hap pened, even when they saw their com panion fall backward across the track. The three boys hurried to the nearest house and the police were summoned. When Patrolman Gruber and Gould ar rived the David boy was dead, and Coroner Nordcn was called to take charge of the remains. After question ing all the witnesses closely and Inter viewing the David boys' grandmother, Mrs. Sarah Hammer, with whom they had been living, Coroner Norden de cided to further Investigate the shoot ing by holding an Inquest this morn ing. Robert David, when he realised the seriousness of his act, broke down and cried. His grief was so evident that he was not questioned to any extent when he was turned over to the offi cials of the Juvenile Court Immedi ately after the shooting. The father of the two boys was killed by poison at Seattle two years ago. the crime having been committed by a Spaniard, who first tried to assassinate him with a knife. WILL PLAY ANOTHER WEEK "Girl of the Golden West" to Con tinue at the Bungalow. No better signs of the times could be desired than the great run of "The Girl of the Golden West," at the Bungalow. For two weeks this drama as presented by the Baker Stock Company, has played to standing room only at every performance, and as hundreds have been turned away the last three days, Manager Baker yesterday decided to play It again for the third week. This is simply phenomenal for Portland, and surely Indicates a growth In population beyond all expectations. ' About two years ago "The Eternal City" ran for two weeks, the last week drawing Just an -ordinary business which was considered good then, but now this greatest of all theatrical sen sations as far as this city Is concerned, has sold every seat at every perform ance for two weeks and has every indi cation of continuing to do so for the coming week. "When a play Is away beyond the mediocre," said advertising manager Seaman, yesterday, "It ' Is advertised from Hp to lip, and one hears about it on the street. In the shop or office, in streetcars and elevators everywhere people meet .or congregate for busi ness or social reasons. Probably nev er before in the kistory of Portland has a theatrical offering created so much of this sort of talk among all classes of people. It Is something out of the ordinary, and it is not only in this city, but letters, telegrams and long distance telephone calls have come from all the surrounding towns as far as Eugene, The Dalles and Astoria for seats." FREED ON $5000 BAIL Federal Defendant Maintains He Is Victim of Spitework. IO uls R. Webb, who Is accused by the Government of setting Are to several townships of timber land, yesterday through his attorney, John Edward Boys, furnished bonds In the sum of IS000 to appear In San Francisco for trial. Webb Is a miner living near Deerlng. Southern Oregon. He denies that he set fire to the timber and declares that he Is a victim of a plot hatched by cer tain people against whom he gave the Oregon City Trains PORTLAND RAILWAY, LIGHT AND POWER CO.
