Many Snags Removed; Conprreswonal appropriations a Kgre gat ing $3,042,500 for river and harbor improve ments in this section of the Pacific North west for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911, are recommended by Major Mclndoe, corps of L'nited States Kngineers, in charge of this district, in his annual re port to the Secretary of War, printed copies of which were received in Portland, yesterday. The largest apporpriation rec ommended is $l,o0.000 for continuing the improvement of the mouth of the Colum bia. Th sum of $1,000,000 is urged for necefiry work in the same "tream be - tween The Ialleg Itapids and the Celilo Falls. .Fifteen Sums Asked. The detailed amounts that can be profit Vly expended In this district, according to Major Mclndoe. for .the fiscal year ending June 30, 1911, exclusive of the balance un expended on July 1, 1909, are as follows: Improvement mouth of Columbia River $1,560,000 t'olumnfa River between foot of Th Dallos Kailds and the head of felilo Falls 1,000.000 I'oiumhia and lower Willamette. . 175,000 Canal at the Cascades 103,000 Co urn bin and tr (binaries above i'elilo Kails to Snke River po.ono Vpper Willamette 00,000 Columbia between Vancouver and Snake River 15.000 Tillamook Hay and harbor 10.000 Cowlitz Rive fi.OOO ( "oos River 3.00O T,ewls River 2.5K VinuRing v.

According to Major Mclndoe's report, operations for the improvement of the Columbia and lower Willamette Rivers below this city during the fiscal year end ing June 30, last, consisted almost entire ly In dredging the shoals between this city and Astoria. In this work the United States dredger Iadd and Clatsop were employed, a total of 341.430 cubic yards of material being removed from the differ ent shoal places' in the lower estuary of the river. I At the mouth of the Columbia work has been In progress at Fort Stevens through out the year, says the report, but the active work of receiving stone and ex tending the Jetty tramway was suspended from Decembor 31 to April 13. on account of inclement weather. At the beginning of the fiscal year the tramway had been extended to a point 29.416 feet from the root of the jetty and the enrockment had been brought to' a height of from four to five fet above mean low tide. Tammany Kx tends 300O Figlit. During the year the tramway was re built out to the end of the old jetty arM extended past that point to a total lengtn of 3CG0 feet. Continuing, the report says: Th survey of the bar. completed the lat ter part of June, shows quite a marked im provement In the navigable channel since the survey of last year. The survey of last year showed a chan nel about O00 feel in width with a. mini mum depth of ':4i feet, with two navi gable channels at the most easterly and westerly limits, having minimum depths of 2B 4 and 25 feet, respectively. The sur ey of this year shows that the 6000-foot channel has narrowed to -4700 feet by the westerly movement of Clatsop Rpit, due to the exteninon of the Jetty. The easterly CftH-foot channel of last year has been eliminated and the westerly 25-foor channel has deepened to IJfiH feet, v The reduction of the total width of the 4 H-foot channel during the pa.st year has I'Miilted In a well-defined, navigable chan n(( with a minimum depth of Uti- feet and a width of ono feet at its narrowest point, while only about 1000 feet of the length of the 2t'i-foot channel has a depth of less thaa 7 feet and only, 20O0 feet a depth of less than 2S feet. The conditions of Peacock Spit are about as usually found, with a slight shoaling in spots and a gradual movement to the west and north. Clatsop Spit at its 24-foor contour on the north side of the jetty shows a slight cut- ting of the channel side and a westerly movement of about l.'.OO feet at its west end. On the south side of the Jetty the 24-foot contour remains about the same along the . south edge of the spit, but at the west end it has advanced seaward about 20OO feet. I The changes that have taken Vhce dur- " ing the past year are very satisfactory and give promise of a greater depth of chan nel In a short time. Work on Rapids Rushed. Much benefit has resulted at WnatUla and Homly Rapids on the upper Colum bia from deepening and straightening" inn uer iiiBimci, a.iinougu much more rf this work needs to be done. The total work of the season on this section of the rivrIs summarized as follows: Bigg Rapids 210 drags with the chan nl rake, deepening the crossing about two feet. Lowr Umatilla. Rapids 42 cubta yards Of rock blasted and removed. Middle ITmatlUa Rapids 571 cubic yards f rock blasted and removed. Upper Umatilla Rapids 07 oublo yards of rock blasted and removed. Homly Rapids J7 cubic yards of rock blasted ; 327 drags made with rake; 161 tons of bowlders, etc., were removed from the bed of the river and placed where they would improve the channel. The following nummary Is given of work done on the Snake River: In all irtSS tons of stone were plaaed in dams at Slaughter House Rapids; f5 cubic yards of reef were blasted from Texas Rapids; 1207 cubic yards of rock were re moved from Palouse Rapids; 1127 cubic yards of rock from Pine Tree Rapids, and 1093 cubic yards from Fish Hook Rapids. "Wall at Cascades Asked. Construction of a concrete wall to re place the earth bank on the south side of the upper lock at the Cascades of the Columbia, to cost about $100,000. is an other improvement recommended by Mclndoe. The cost' of operating these locks during the year was ?1.S53.S3. Sta tistics are included in the report showing that during the 13 months 4.16S.0S tons of freight and 70.4S3 passengers passed through the locks on the various river craft. The following review is given of the operations on the Columbia between Vancoirver and the mouth of the Wil lamette: No active operations were carried on dur ing the year. In September a survey was mde of the shoals between the railroad bridge at Vancouver and deep water below the lower point of Hay den Island. The sur vey showed that the former dredited channel along the Huyden Island shore had not been , maintained, hut had shoaled in places to 10 f.et or less at low water. ' The best chan nel over the shoal appeared to cross over the Washington shore, with a. controlling depth f about 11 feet at low water. Early In the season It was the intention , to redredge a channel to the projected 20 feet low-water depth across the shoal, but he port of Portland suction d. retires could in former years for this ? ler dredge "was available. f Fittock & I ad better at 1 work, and no other The sawmill of Fittock Vancouver, Wash., which heretofore has fur nished nearly all the ocean cargoes, burned down, and as it appeared that it would not be a good policy to redredge a channel which would probably fill up at the next high water, and for which there was little or no demand, it was decided not to attempt dredging this last season, especially as no economical dredge could be hired for the work. The above-mentioned sawmill has been re built, and t is proposed to use the United Ptatee dredge Oregon to redredge the chan nel after the freshet In the Columbia sub sides. The dike at the head of Oregon . Slough has remained intact, and requires no re pairs at this time. Coqnille Jetty Lengthened. The status of work at other points in this district is reviewed in the report as follows:, Coqnilie River, from Coquille City to mouth of river. Touring the year the jetty was extended a farther distance of 133 feet, and 8587 tons of stone were dum?ed there on. Under this contract a total of 31.427 tona of stone were placed in the north jetty, it being extended a total distance- of 2S3 feet seaward. This contract completed all the work contemplated under the approved project, and. with the work done in former years, resulted in the construction of the south jetty 2700 feet in length, and the north Jetty 1075 feet in length. Both jetties are of the high-tide, rubble-stone type, with their sea ends BOO feet apart. The Influence of these Jetties has caused the channel to be straightened and located away from dan gerous rocks, and has increased the low water depth on the bar from about three feet to lO feet. The ends of the jetties have been more or less beaten down by the seas, but this action seems to have ceased, and the bar depths seem to remain fairly per manent. Coos Bay Work Rests. Coos Bay and Harbor. No active opera tions under the approved project of con struction of jetties were carried on during the fiscal year. The Government plant was cared for, and during March and Arril about 5:i acres of the North Hpit wve planted with Holland grass (Arunda e re narta), the roots befng taken from ad jacent plantings of former years. The condition of the north jetty is about the same as previously reported, pilots re porting a least low-water depth of about 20 feet over the bar. . The jetty tramway and wharf have been completely destroyed by the teredo and decay, and the Jetty itself more or less beaten down by the Winter storms. Tillamook Snag-s Removed. Tillamook Bay and Bar At the begin ning of the fiscal year the work of snag ging with the Government plant on Ho quarten Slough was in progress, and con tinued until about August 1. between Tilla mook City and Memaloose Point. This stretch was thoroughly snagged, and ap proximately 106 large snags and !10 small snags and trees were removed from the channel. The use of the dredge by private citi zens for the removal of a rock heap In Wilson River was authorized bv the de partment, and this work was done during August and September, all expenses of operation being paid by the people inter ested. The dredge was also loaned, under authority of the department, for deepen ing the channel in Hoquarten Slough above the county bridge. This work was inter mittently carried on during Oecember and January, after which the plant was laid up for the Winter. ' With the funds provided by the act of March 3. 1909. it is proposed to snag and redredge the shoals to the projected depth of nine feet, and at the close of the year a new bucket for the dredge had been ordered and the work of overhauling the plant commenced. The controlling dikes constructed in former years in Tillamook Bay are more or less in need of repair, and as the chan nel requires annual dredging and snagging additional funds will be required. It is estimated t hat $10,000 can be profitably expended in the next two years In making repairs to these dikes and In maintaining ine improved cnannei. Willamette River Cleared. Work on the Willamette River was con fined to a stretch on the river between Corvallis and Newberg, a distance of 81 guiles, and consisted of snagging, dredg ing and making necessary t repairs to dams and revetments. In all, 126.000 cubic yards of material were removed from the river. The same character of wprk was performed in the Yamhill River. The locks Tn this stream were open 155 times during the year. They were closod 74 days, from September 23 to March 4, on account of high water. The cost of their operation was $1188.66. MAYOR BUYS STAMPS CHECK CHEERS BUSY SALES ' MANAGERS. Seattle Sends Word $7000 Was Raised There in One Day 1 vocal Fund Xot Yet $10,000. The first day of the last week of the Christmas stamp campaign, con ducted by the Visiting Nurse Associa tion, opened with considerable gladness at headquarters yesterday morning, owing to a letter and check that were received in the first mail from Mayor Simon. This communication showed that the city's executive took a deep personal interest in the movement to raise a fund of $10,000 tjo help in the fight being waged against the white plague, and gave the women concerned in the sale of stamps new cheer. Mayor Simon suggested that, inas much as only one call, has been made upon the business men for contribu tions, a second canvass would not be amiss. Pleased as were the members of ths association to receive this letter, they regret that It will be impossibleo fol io, low out the Mayor's sugesion. Most or tneir num oer are too exhausted by the length of the campaign to make the recanvass of the business offices, and the remainder feel that their atten tion must be given to the booths, of which some addilonal ones have been opened for the final week of the sale. New incentive to the work was also given by the report from Seattle, where "Red Cross buttons' were sold for a day. In an endeavor to raise a fund of $10,000 for similar work there. In the one day In which the campaign was conducted in the city on Elliott Bay, nearly $7000 was raised. The members of the Visiting Nurse Association feel that if Seattle could raise $7000 in one day for work against tuberculosis, the moti and women of Portland ought to be able to give $10,000 in four weeks at least. With this matter of local pride in view, the work this week will be prosecuted vigorously.

Tuttle. arrested in Wausau, Wis., who is wanted in this city for swindling women on whom he first worked the "af finity" game, arrived in Portland yester day morning in the custody of Detective Joe Day and was later arraigned before Judge Bennett, his case being set over until December 22 for a hearing. At least two victims of Tuttle are known to the authorities, the amount of his swindllngs being close to $2000. The complaint on which his arrest was made is brought by Marie Veal, an East Side resident, who says that she gave him $950 for the purpose of buying an Interest in a pool and. billiard-room and that in stead of buying the pool room, Tuttle used the money for his own purposes. The charge alleged against him by Marie' Bofomeier, a waitress at the Del monieo restaurant, 149 Seventh street, however, is of a more reprehensible char acter than the first. Mies. Bobmeier represented to the Dis trict AttorneyV office that Tuttle paid violent court to her and that she gave him sums at various times to deposit in the bank for her. Instead of depositing the money. Tuttle made an entry in the book to deceive the young woman and kept the money. After Tuttle had gone away she went to the bank to draw some of her money and found that she had no funds on deposit there, the entries In her book being forgeries made byv Tuttle. An information against Tuttle on this charge has not yet been filed. Tuttle was visiting his relatives when placed under arrest. He left Portland two months ago. . .

The service I render is entirely unlike and better than the ordinary. I have devised new and scientific methods of treating men's ailments in all their phases. I cure cases that others cannot cure, and cases that others can cure I cure in less time and without pain or possibility of injury. All my forms of treatment have been perfected along the lines of nature's requirements and are in exact harmony with the natural recuperative forces. Therefore, my cures arc painless, prompt and thorough. Contracted Ailments The serious results that may follow neglect of contracted ailments could scarcely be exag gerated. Safety demands an absolutely thorough cure in the least possible time. I have treated more cases of contracted ailments than any other physician upon the Pacific Coast. My cures are thorough and are accomplished in less time than even doubtful resulta. 1 employ remedies of my own devising, and my treatment Is equally effective in both recent and chronic cases. I Treat Men Only The vast multitude of men who have taken my- treatment have not been disappointed. They know that I do not promise more than I per form. To them I have actually illustrated in the cure of their own capes the truth of what I clairri. namely, that my treatment is as certain to cure as it is that my patient engages my services and follows my directions. My suc cess is due not alone to education, experience, ski 11 and scientific equipment, but to the fact that i limit my study and practice strictly to aliments of men. To male maladies alone I have earnestly and exclusively devoted 25 years of my life, and on them all my faculties are concen trated, j A REAL MUSEUM LARGEST ASD FINEST 1WU5ECM OP ANATOMY OS THE COASTJ Masks, models, plaster casts, skulls, skeletons, beautiful life-like models in wax; also many natural specimens preserved in alcohoj.

Men Who Are Nervous and Careworn Gloomy and Despondent LET ME REBUILD and RE VITALIZE You at MY OWN RISK It is always safest to try a strange horse out in the harness a while before starting, on a ions trip with him. You 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 plentv of (food 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 vou ought to do with every proposition. Tou certainly can make no mis take by 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 made 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 tliat the average doctor has found it Impossible to reach in the general practice of medicine and surgerv. These are the ailments that wreck men: q Blood Poison, Varicose Veins and the After math of Infectious Ailments These are the things in the life of men that MAIM, CRIFFIEJ AND KILL, and the thing that gives them more power than they would have otherwise is neglect and indifference of the Individual. Neglect rusts the mind, is the mother of poverty, and the root of all evtL Habitual neglect shows not only a weak head, but a faint heart. If yon intend to succeed In life get "The Today Habit" of doing your duty. I want every man who feels that he Is not up to the proper stand ard of health to come to my office and have a confidential, heart-to-heart talk with me. This will cost you absolutely nothing, and you do not place yourself under the slightest obligation to take treatment from me by so doing any more than you would be expected to buy a suit of clothes that might not suit you simply because you had asked the price I will cheerfully give you any Information concerning your case free of -cost, and if your condition la one that I consider curable I will make price and terms that will unquestionably be perfectly satisfactory to you.
