Indictments against Harry Holland and John Robertson, tha chauffeur and his associate, respectively, who had charge of the automobile belonging to W. M. Ladd early Sunday morning when it . leaped over an embankment at the Gravel Pit. on the Gresham road, causing the . death of Mrs. Dolly Ferrers, will fa sub mitted to the members of the grand Jury .for their consideration by District " At torney Cameron. The grand Jury will also consider evidence involving the al leged violation of the state liquor laws hy the Twelve-Mile House, operated by Fred Merrill, and other similar resorts. Reckless driving of automobiles. "Joy rides." has proved so dangerous. In two instances destructive to human life, that a popular demand for curbing the prac- . tlce has aroused the District Attorney to action. He declared yesterday after noon that he and the Sheriff would make . Joint efforts to punish such offenders and to prosecute the roadhouses which are responsible for the drunkenness that in many cases cause the reckless driving. It is District Attorney Cameron's opin ' ion that a new law should be passed pro viding for the revocation of the license of any chauffeur who Is proved to have drunk intoxicating liquor?. Charge Is Xot Kevealed. T. Vreeland. Assistant District At . torney, will have immediate direction of the indictments that will be placed before the grand Jury today, and while he de clared yesterday that he believed both Holland and Robertson could be convicted of manslaughter under section 174S of the state law. he would not tell the na ture of the indictments that have been prepared In the case. Section 1746 reads as follows: v "If anyperson shall In the commission of a lawful act. or a lawful act without due caution or circumspection, involun tarily kill another, such person shall be deemed guilty of manslaughter." Any person found guilty under the pro-, visions of the foregoing section Is sub ject to Imprisonment in the penitentiary tor from one to 15 years. While the Oregon law mar be construed to place responsibility of accidents on the chauffeur of a machine which causes people to be killed through carelessness, it is Vreeland'a opinion that in this case, Robertson, who did not drive, has a cer tain responsibility In the matter. This is supported by a recent decision, he Ft ted yesterday, of the Court of Ap peals of New Tork. The killing of Jlrs. May Real on the Linnton rond on August ( was one Inci dent which aroused public sentiment against the dangerous sport. The fa tality of Sunday morning, like that of the former accident In August, has been traced to the effects of liquor, and now the numerous roadhouses about the city are to be watched by the county offi cials, and convictions for selling liquor unlawfully and revocations of licenses are to be used as a discouragement for the questionable manner In which it Is stated many of these places are being operated. Liquor Adds to Danger. Men have been known to lose their Meads in the excitement of fast driving and riding, even when intoxicating liquors have not been used, it has been pointed out by the opponents of Joy rides, and when the nervous effect of intoxicants is added to this, human life has but lit tle protection, it is argued. By those who have indulged in them, wild rides have been described as being the outcome of what began as harmless ' spins. Thus the District Attorney is determined to enforce to the best of his ability tha speed law. and tha law gov erning the conduct of the resorts out side of the city. "Good, sharp punishment by the law will have a wholesome restraint on these people." declared Mr. Cameron yester day. "The evidence we have obtained tends to show that the Twelve-Mile House violated the law Sunday morning by selling liquor and by selling It also to a minor. . If this can be satisfactorily proved, the court can revoke the license of the place." Fred Merrill, proprietor of the Twelve Mile House, in an Interview yesterday, denied that liquor had been sold there to Holland and Robertson early Sunday morning, for he said the place was closed i i miuuiK"-. llv to the automobile t establishments." said Merrill yesterday. . "and have suggested to them that they ' write letters to all the roadhouses near I Portland, asking' them not to soil liqifor to chauffeurs on duty. I will also write a similar letter to the Portland Auto mobile Cluu, maKing tne.same i oju'. "As for the Twelve-Mile House, no drinks will be served there to chauffeurs, whether they are on duty or not." Merrill's License to Expire. Merrill's license to sell liquor at the Twelve-Mile House will expire on Sep tember 27. County Judge Webster stated vesterday that licenses are usually granted to those places, unless formal protests are presented to the County Commissioners. It is understood that Merrill is already having a petition pre pared to have his license renewed. At the County Clerk's office yesterday it was stated that there are about 12 roadhouses in Multnomah County which have licenses to sell liquors. Whether Holland and Robertson are to be prosecuted for having taken Mr. Ladd's automobile, without permission Saturday night, is not decided. Assist ant District Attorney Vreeland said yes terday that although in many Instances it had been determined that taking an automobile with the evident intention of returning it did not constitute felony, it had been determined that the use of the gasoline under such circumstances con stituted a theft. The two men mentioned, it was stated by Mr. Cameron, will, probably not be prosecuted for violating the speed ordi nance Sunday morning at the time of the accident, ' although he believes sufficient proof of this is available. COflFERfirra OPEN METHODISTS SOTTH WILL MEET IX NEW CIIUKCH. Large Auditorium Is Completed for Annual Session and Will Be Used Tonight. The Columbia Conference of the Metho dist Church South will open today in the new stone edifice on Union avenue and Multnomah street and continue with daily sessions until Sunday, when the new building will be dedicated and the appointments for the year will be an nounced by Bishop Atkins, who will pre side.

' It is. expected that at some time during the conference a resolution will be in troduced and passed asking the general assembly to change the name of the de nomination in general by cutting off the word "South." A resolution of this kind was adopted by the East Columbia Con ference. Ministers of this church say they are not sectional, as the name might Indicate. Rev. E. H. Mowre, the pastor, and members of the local church have com pleted arrangements for conference. Yes terday I, he new church was filled with workmen putting the finishing touches on the auditorium. Rev. B. F. Jones, presiding elder, is also here assisting in the preparations. Last night the choir held a meeting and used the organ. Rev. Mr. Mowre said yesterday that every thing will be ready for the conference to open today. WANT UNION MEN HIRED Delegates Are Told County Job Will Go to Lowest Bidder. County Judge Webster and Commis sioner Lightner were visited yesterday morning by Harry J. Parkinson and an other representative of the labor unions of the city. They asked that when the County Court is ready to let the contract for the construction work on the east wing of the new Courthouse, it be let aa a whole to some large contractor who will agree to employ only union men. The two delegates discussed with the County Court the fight of the labor unions of the city for an eight-hour day, and named several firms who are em ploying nonunion help on ten-hour shifts. Against this they protested, and asked Judge Webster and Commissioner1 Light ner not to award the contract to any of these firms. The labor union men were assured by both Mr. Lightner and Judge Webster that bids for the construction work will be advertised for, and that the contract will be let to the lowest responsible bid der regardless of whether he employes union or nonunion labor. The work of laying foundations for the new structure is going rapidly forward. The excavation has been completed, and about half the cement bases are in place. The structural steel is not yet on the ground. FURNACE CAUSE OF FIRE Blaze in Flats at 4 9 East Fifteenth Works $500' Damage. Fire causing $500 damage occurred at 4:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon in flats at 49 East Fifteenth street. -A defective furnace in the basement caused the blaze. Sparks fell through a hole In the grate and rolled through an opening to the floor, setting the woodwork around the furnace afire. The flames crept up ward following the course of the chimney, burning through the rafters up to the second floor. An alarm was sent m from a nearby box and the firemen who responded were able to put out the blaze in a short time. None of the occupants of the building suffered any loss.

Methods Is Begun. DISTRICT ATTORNEY ACTS Chief Deputy Fitzgerald Informs . Receiver Devlin Inquiry Will Be Made and Orders Statement of Concern's Accounts. Investigation by the grand Jury Into the mismanagement of the defunct Oregon Trust & Savings Bank, predicted for -the last two weeks, is now assured. The office of. the District Attorney took the Initiative and Chief Deputy District At torney Fitzgerald, into whose hands the conduct of the Inquiry will fall, officially took up the subject with Receiver Devlin yesterday morning. An effort was made by Attorney Fitz gerald to obtain a statement of the facts as they really exist according to the bank's books that the case might be hurried before the Jury. However, this was not obtained, as the report of the ex perts, Lester, Herrick & Herrick, has not yet been completed and will not be for perhaps two days more. Attorney Fitzgerald called on Receiver Devlin at his office in the German-American Bank and Informed him it had been decided to lay the subject before the grand Jury at the instigation of Attorney Gruber. Attorney Gruber, as representa tive of a number of unpaid and dissatis fied depositors of the bank, has made allegations which Implicate not only the officers of the institution but the directors as well. Receiver Devlin assured Attorney Fitz gerald that he would do all in' his power as receiver to assist in the .investigation. After a, visit to the office of the book experts Receiver Devlin called at the Dis trict Attorney's office saying that notice would be given as soon as the report was ready to be submitted. After -a copy of this report has been placed in the hands of Attorney Fitzgerald another day or two, perhaps, will be consumed in the perusal and digestion of its contents by the Deputy District Attorney before the summary of its findings will be given to the Jury. Another sensational charge has de veloped in the examination of the books during the past few days. It involves the Order of Washington, the Insurance venture which failed at the time of the bank wreck. Covering a period of two years, it is allege, the Order of Wash ington received on notes at various times without collateral, sums whtch-ag-gregated more than J50.000 and none of which, it is alleged, was ever paid back. When it was discovered that such a large amount was due the 'bank from the Order of Washington, Receiver Devlin seized all the belongings of the order. The only assets he was able to discover were, the office furniture and fixtures, which were sold at auction and on which $2100 was realized. . Besides the Order of Washington, the affairs of the bank in connection with the United Railways syndicate, the construc tion of the Board of Trade building, the conduct of the Golden Eagle dry goods store, the Medford & Crater Lake Rail road, and the Pacific & HAstern itaiiroaa will be looked into. Alleged Juggling with stocks and bonds, forgeries to cover up Illicit transactions, failure of the directors to prevent ill-advised loans and many questionable acts alleged to have been . committed by President W. H. Moore and Cashier W. C. Morris will also figure prominently in the array of evidence. The -attitude of Receiver Devlin and President Reed of the German-American Bank in the cape is passive. They started the investigation of the books at the request of Attorney Gruber but have not been active "in seeking prosecution. It was regarded as certain, however, that they would proceed against the stock holders in a civil suit to recover the amount of any stock not yet paid for. It Is considered as certain tnai an ui um directors of the bank will be required to tell of the workings of the institution be fore the grand Jury. W. H. Moore is at present in Canada. He has been absent from the city for the last two weeks and the date of his return is not known. It was said at his office that he had gone to Canada to look over lands of the Canadian Pacific Railroad which had been placed into the hands of the Moore Investment Company for sale and that he would return upon the completion of this trip of inspection.

Tbis is because women are told that their every sickness is due to ailments of their sex." The notion that to cure a woman's ailments, it is only necessary to treat the distinctly feminine org-ans, is one that has caused much unneces sary suffering;. The tortures and discomforts of weak, lame and aching-back,swollen and bloat ed feet and limbs, nausea and fainting spells, lassitude, despondency,sick head aches, painful, scalding sensation, in fiaramation,etc are invariably due to'de . rangements of the kidneys and bladder. And unless there is proper healing and curative treatment for the org-ans, which are diseased and out of order, there can be no cure of the woman's ail ments. Forthe cure of these conditions and as a safeguard against even more serious and fatally dangerous diseases there must be a thoroughly good and effective kidney and bladder medicine. DeWitt's Kidney and Bladder Pills act at once and with the most benefi cial results on the organs in question insure prompt and permanent relief In any cases where the disease has not been too long neglected. These pills may be depended upon to do all that is claimed for them. They are thoroughly antiseptic sur prisingly healing and cleansing, purify ing, and reconstructive in effect and, containing no opiates, narcotics, or other harmful substances, may be taken in perfect confidence. Thousands i of women all over the United States gratefully affirm the mar velous efficacy of these Pills.

Convention Will Be Called September 20 Next Year Districts to Pay Delegates Expenses. The state convention of County Com missioners and Judges which has been in session at the Commercial Club, ad journed late yesterday afternoon to meet September 20 next year. Judges Jewell, Goodin and Dimick were named as a committee on programme for the next assembly. A resolution was adopted yesterday morning that each county pay the actual expenses of its Judges and Commissioners to and from the convention. Judge Jewell, who offered the resolution, wanted the per diem of the County Commissioners, amounting to about $4 each. Included, but this was not adopted. The subject came up again at yes terday afternoon's meeting. when the. chairman suggested that each county pay into the convention treasury $10 for ex penses. A resolution to this effect was passed, the money to be paid to Com missioner Llewellen. of Oregon City. Probate practice and the disposition of delinquent county and state taxes were the subjects under discussion yesterday afternoon. A better system of laws was urged, it being agreed that the probate laws are now too complicated and con flicting. DAVIS SCHOOL NOT READY Another Week's Delay Probable Be fore Building Is Occupied. Superintendent of Schools Rigler said yesterday afternoon that, despite the announcement that the Davis School was to open today it has now proved impossible to carry out the plans. The contractor has failed to Install the heating- apparatus, and now If an old sore existed simply because the flesh was diseased at that particular spot, it would ba aa easy matter to apply some remedy directly to the place that 'would kill the germs; or the diseased fiesn. might bo removed by a. surgical operation and a cure effected. But the very fact that old sores resist every form of local or external treatment, and even return after being out away, show3 that back of them 13 a morbid cause which must be removed before a cure can result. Just as long as the pollution continues in the blood, the ulcer remains an open cesspool for the deposit of impurities which the circulation throws oft. S. S. S.

Years in practice are no true measure of a physician's skill. Medical spe cialists, as a rule, give prominent mention to the number of years they have devoted to the practice of the -various specialties. In this regard I do not differ from most other specialists. I frequently state that I have treated men only for 26 years. This Is a thine of importance that can be told In a few words. That's why I tell it so often. The thing I now wish to tell about requires more space in telling, and I may or may not tell it more than this once. Experience isn't worth much unles it has quality in it. In fact, it isn't worth any thing. It is Just 11-te all other bad things the greater the quantity the more badness there is. I do not mean this as a personal reference to any other doctor, wnetner gener- al practitioner or specialist. I merely make the statement because It Is the truth that has application here. To do a thing wrongly a thousand times only fits one for doing it wrongly again, and the oftener he does it wrongly, the less apt he is to do it rightly. To treat a thousand patients Indifferently or carelessly doesn't make skill, but It adds indiffer ence and carelessness. To treat a thousand patients thoughtfully, care fully and conscientiously develops skill, a thing of value to the physician himself, and to everv patient he may treat thereafter. This is experience of quality. It is a kind of experience that I have been constantly ac- aulT1 havecarrledano moss-grown theories or methods with me. Others mav cling to theories I prefer truths. I have put thought and study . - . .1... T . u . .... 1 , . .... t li a n : mnlrA mV t TOR t - ment scientific I have f el? a personai' Intent In the welfare of my patients, and have treated them carefully and conscientiously I havs Studied each case I treated.

Men Who Are Nervous and Careworn, Gloomy and Despondent Let Me Rebuild and Re- vitalize You'flt My Own Risk Jt is always safest to try a strange horse out In the harness a while before starting on a long trip with him. Tou don't need to be a "trial horse" for anybody, but It Is a safe conclusion that the man who shuts his eyes and buys a horse on the seller's estimate will not always get what he pays for. The same Is true In selecting a physician. There may be plenty of good ap ples in the "top talk layer," but you can't always be sure the whole barrel is sound without looking through them, and that is what you ought to do with every proposition. You certainly can make no mis take bv letting a doctor cure you first and then pay him for "goods delivered." Many doctors advertise this plan, but are not always sin cere in the proposition.. I advertise . not a dollar need be paid unless cured, and "that goes." I correct unhealthy conditions the same as a shoemaker would mend a pair of shoes. I make men strong enough to succeed because my whole time and study for years have been in this one line of thought, and my knowledge and experience have brought me to a point of proficiency "tnat the average doctor has found it Impossible to reach in tha general practice of medicine and surgery. There are Just four ailments that wreck men: BLOOD POISON, VITAL WEAKNESS, VARICOSE VEINS, and trie aftermath of INFECTIOUS DISORDERS These are the things in the life of men that MAIM, CRIPPLE!
