he accepted the berth on the Beaver
soon after she arrived from the Atlan
tlo aid?, and remained on her until hla
death, while changes have been made
n both the Rose I'lty and Bear In that

ORDINANCE AIMED
AT
Measure, Said to Be Backed
by Mayor, Bars Street
Speaking in Fire Limits.
PERMITS ONLY RECOGNIZED
Predicted That Council Will Take
Action Soon to Prevent All Gath
erings Which Might He
suit In Rioting.
Mayor Rushlight Is said to be back
of an ordinance which has been drafted
In the office of the City Attorney by
Deputies Sullivan and Cahalin, the pro
visions of which would. If put into
effect, virtually drive all meetings oft
the streets within the fire limits.
The ordinance made Its appearance
yesterday at the City Hall, but It was
not introduced into the Ciry Council,
which was In session for several hours.
No member of the Council seemed to
know anything about It, but inquiries
In official circles indicate quite clearly
that the Mayor himself Initiated the
proposed measure. He has been absent
from the city for ton days, but is ex
pected to reach Portland tills afternoon,
when he will take up the problems
that are confronting the administra
tion. Meeting; Barred la Fire Limits.
All meetings are barred from the
streets in the. fire limits, except by
permission of the Mayor, who must.
In case he allows any gathering in
the tire limits, issue a written permit.
This would make the city's chief ex
ecutive absolutely responsible) for all
meetings, if any are held In the Are
limits, as, unless a permit were au
thorised, the police would dlwperse an
assemblage in that district.
The lire limits Include virtually all of
the downtown section, so that, if this
ordinance should become the law of
the city, soap-box oratory, as well as
other brands, would be excluded from
the places that are most congested.
Before leaving the, city for a sea trip
to California ports. Mayor Rushlight
said that some means of excluding
meetings from the congested districts
was needed, but it did not become
known until yesterday that he bad
asked for such an ordinance) to be
drawn up by the City Attorney.
Immediate Artloa F.Kpeefed.
It Is believed that he will give Im
mediate attention to the situation
which confronts the administration as
to street speaking, as he promised to j
do so befbro leaving. During his ;
bsence. Acting Mayor Baker has con
tinued the policy outlined by the Mayor,
plain clothes policemen being detailed
to every street meeting held by to- i
clalists or I. W. V. organizations. In
the hope of gathering evidence against
any who may utter inflammatory
speeches. It was the intention of tbe
administration, as outlined by the
Mayor and also by tho Acting Mayor
to arrest seditious speakers. If their
names and addresses were learned, but
not to raid street meetings.
At the present time, no permit is
necessary to hold a street meeting any
where, and It has been recognized for
some time, that an ordinance would be
necessary to prevent large gatherings
In the congested sections, as a precau
tionary measure. Any ordinance that
mlcht be passed would Include all
manner of mee-tings and would affect
religious organizations, except that
they, as the others, might be permitted
by the Mayor to conduct their meet
ings. BIG FIGHT IS DELAYED
SOUTIIKHX PACIFIC PnOBXKM
TO CO .ME CP WEDNESDAY.
Final Pas.snge of Ordinance Ousting
Company From Ftourth Street
Causes Warm Debate.
Next Wednesday afternoon at 1
o'clock the City Council will consider
Councilman Daly's ordinance, ousting
the Southern Pacific Company from
Fourth street, this being the decision
reached by the Council yesterday morn
ing, after considerable debate.
Acting Mayor Baker brought about
postponement of the measure by a
statement to the effect that ne had
promised all Inte-reHts concerned, as
chairman of the street committee, that
he would give them due notice before
the Council should take final action.
Hla attitude was combatted by Coun
ellmen Daly. Clydo, .Mag u I re and oth
ers, who wished, to vote on final pass
age of the ordinance. In order, as they
said, to put the city's legal department
In better condition to fight the com
pany's suit In the United States Su
preme Court.
Mayor Rushlight Being aoseni. jar.
Baker was presiding as acting Mayor,
and endeavored to secure postponement.
but without success. A vote was taken,
the result standing six to six, Mr.
Baker having voted: three members
were absent. Mr. Baker then ruled
that he. as chairman, possessed power
to refer or otherwise dispose of the
question and ruled that the ordinance
was referred to the street committee.
Councilman Magulre moved final
passage or tne ordinance, insisting
that Mr. Baker put the motion, but
Clerk Orutse obtained a copy of Rob
erts' rules of order, which Mr. Baker,
after reading a section, said sustained
him. Consequently, while the Council
adjourned to meet next Wednesday aft
ernoon on this question, the ordinance
la. In reality before the street commit
tee, and will have to ba withdrawn be
fore the Council can consider it.
An attempt to attack the Mount
Hood Railway & Power Company by
the adoption of a resolution declaring
Its franchise forfeited, was made by
Councilman Joy. but his resolution waa
"killed" by a large vote, as Councilman
Clyde pointed out that sv section of the
franchise specifically states mat. in
case of a merger, the entire grant Is
utomaticallv waived. An ordinance
revoking a permit granted to the Mount
Hood Company for a track on ilia
venue, consisting of lu blocks inside
the city limits, was referred to the
street committee A resolution oy
Councilman Clyde. committing the
Council to municipal ownership of.
street railways, gas and electric light
companies, was not adopted, but was
referred to City Attorney urant tor an
opinion. The resolution said that the
time Is ripe for the taking over of all
nubile utilities by the city, and that.
aa the city has made a success of the
water business, "there is no reason wny
It cannot make a success of the other
utilities."
The Council voted unanimously to

anticipated.
DESERTER RECEIVES WAGE
Tar Who Left Steamer at Balboa
Paid Off Here. -
C. Lehman, a sailor, deserted the
steamer Riverside, of the California &
Atlantic fleet, three months ago at
Hal boa. There were wages due him
in the sum of I1.1.10. As he signed on
In rortland for the voyage, the money
was sent here to be called for. He was
paid yesterday, having returned sev
eral thousand miles, but he only re
ceived 111.25, as the remainder was
deducted for costs In the Federal Court,
and before the money was paid, a form
al order authorizing the liquidation,
was signed by Judge Bean.
It was a decidedly unusual proceed
ing as viewed by Portland mariners,
but was carried out with full legal
requirements and there was a coinci
dence In view of the fact the Riverside
Is also in the river, being at Tongue
Point loading lumber for the return,
after having started her cargo here.
When the desertion of Lehman was
made known Captain Durham turned
over J15.1& to the American consul at
Balboa. In turn the money was for
warded to united States Shipping Com.
mlssloner Cannon and was held by the
clerk of the court. -
Lehman made a demand for the
wages yesterday and while there was
no objection to the amount being
paid over. Judge Bean was called on to
sanction the transfer. It was nec
essary for all members of the crew to
be accounted for when the vessel was
to be cleared from Balboa, and a Fed
eral law makes It compulsory for the
skipper or owners to pay over the
amount due a deserter so that It can
be forwardeded to the port where he
signed on. There are many who have
assumed that when a tar leaves a ship
ship he also forfeits money due, but
the statute covering such cases was
evidently framed with the idea of pro
tecting men who signed on American
ships and were forced to leave vessels
away from home.
DREDGE PUMPS CAHP ASHORE
One Man Gathers 1'Uh to Be Cooked
for Poultry Feed.
Half a ton of carp was pumped by
the dredge Columbia from tho bottom
of the river yesterday morning and ac
cording to Manager Talbot, of the Port
of Portland Commission, there was a
man for each fish in the scramble that
followed at the scene of the fill betng
made for the Southern Pacific's Kast
Side freight station. Although the
carp went through the "cutter" of the
dredge and were given a ride of sev
eral hundred feet through the 30-inch
discharge pipe, some of them emerged
alive and kicking.
"We found one man who wanted the
carp for chicken feed, his plan being
to boll them for ills poultry boarders,
and as they are not fit for human be
ings as food, it proved an easy solu
tion." said Manager Talbot. "It seemed
as if tbe dredge's cutter encountered a
'pocket' of fish, probably because at
this season they are headed upstream
to spawn, and we are thankful that
there were no more numerous lots, for
I don't think that fish mixed with sand
and gravel would make a substantial
fill."

Huarters to Be Occupied For a
Year.
POR the first time In 44 years, in the
belief of all who are Informed, the
old City Jail. at Second and Oak streets
Is locked up. After echoing to the foot
steps of myriads, night and day, for
nearly half a century, It has at last
become silent.
The last foot that trod the floors of
the old building, till wreckers shall
enter it to tear it down, was that of
Patrolman Ben Peterson, who always
can be depended upon to be around
when anything Is happening. Peterson
went to the old building Tuesday aft
ernoon and barred it securely from
the public. Previously every moveable
article desired at the new quarters had
been transferred and yesterday the
crumbling old pile ceased to have any
connection with police affairs.
No steps have yet been taken to
wreck the building, on the stte which
the modern nve-story Jail Is to be erect,
ed. Police officials expect to remain
close to a year in their temporary quar
ters at Fifth and Everett streets.

Every old sore is due to the ulc ration of flesh
tissues. The superficial abrasion or opening may
have come as the result of a scratch, burn, cut, or
some other wound, but the place remains open and
of a chronic "nature because the tissues and flesh
fibres beneath the skin are in an unhealthy condi
tion from a polluted blood supply.
Even if it were possible to subdue the ulceration
of the flesh and produce an antiseptic and cleanly
condition of the sore with medicines applied to the
external opening, such treatment could not bring
about any permanent curative results. Deep down
in the blood there is a continual cause at work to
nrevent the nlace from healine.
If we expect a permanent cure it is not the SORE but the BLOOD
which must be cleansed. Then the morbid matter and infectious germs
will be destroyed, and the flesh, becoming healthy, will knit and join
together, and the ulcer can no longer exist. We do not mean
to say one should never use any external treatment for an old
sore, for we realize that some salves, lotions, eta, are often very
soothing to the irritated and painful flesh. But tbe person who

been done there is no longer left any inflammatory impurity or infec
tious matter to irritate the place, and nature causes the natural and
certain healing of the ulcer. When S. S. S. has purified the blood and
the place is once more Hourished with pure, rich blood, then every
symptom disappears, and it is not a temporary cure, but the place is
firmly and solidly healed from the bottom to the outer skin. S. S. S.
is recognized as the greatest of all blood purifiers, and therein lies its
ability to cure old sore6. It is purely vegetable, containing no mineral
in any form, and its fine tonic effects are always helpful in overcoming
the impure systemic effects of an old sore.
We have a special treatise on Old Sores which we will be glad to
send free to all who desire it. It contains the statements of many
cured persons as to the value of S. S. S. We will also be glad to send

A SCHOOL TEACHER'S GRATITUDE:
Geneva, Iowa. "I have been teaching school for some years and I
have neglected my health because I was too busy with my work to
attend to myself properly. I suffered greatly every month and was
on the verge of a nervous breakdown.
UI wrote to you about mv condition and took Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and the Blood Purifier as you recommended.
These remedies have done wonders for me and I can highly and
widely recommend them to every suffering woman." Miss Mrsxra

A COLORADO GIRL'S CASE:
Montrose, Col. "I was troubled very much "with irregular periods.
Sometimes two months would elapse. I suffered severe headache,
was weak and nervous, could eat scarcely anything.
w I took both Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound and Blood
Purifier and the result was wonderful. I feel like another person.
"I think your remedies are the best on earth and cannot express
my thankfulness to you for what they have done to me. I help my
neighbors when they are sick, and I shall always recommend your
medicines." Miss Ella, McCaudless, Montrose, CoL
Is it not reasonable to suppose that a medicine that did
so much for these girls will benefit any other girl who is
suffering with the same troubles ?
Does it not seem the only sensible thing to give such a
medicine at least a trial ? You may be sure that it can do
you no harm, and there are lots of proof that it will do
you much good.
For SO years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound has been the standard remedy for fe
male ills. No one sick with woman's ailments
does justice to herself who will not try this fa

has restored so many suffering women to health,

Appleton, "Wis." I take pleasure in writing you
an account of my sickness. I told a friend of mine
how I felt and she said I had female trouble and
advised me to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, as she had taken it herself for the same
trouble "with "wonderful results. I had been sickly
for two years and overworked myself, and had such
bad feelings every month that I could hardly "walk
for pain. I was very nervous and easily tired out
and could not sleep nights. I had dizzy spells, and
has been unable to teach for a week.

specialist and her wounds are con

falling out, do not wait until you reach
the point where you can actually count
how many hairs are left on your head.
Most cases of baldness are caused
because the roots lack proper nutrition.

bores through the scalp along the line
of the hair into the root and when It
lodges there it begins to destroy tho
fatty matter around the hair roots.
When the scalp and hair roots are
strong and healthy, it Is impossihln for
these microbes to get In their deadly
work.
We can promise you that, if your
hair is falling out, and you have not
let it go too far, you can repair the
damage already done by using Rexall
93" Hair Tonic. It Is a scientific,
cleansing, antiseptic, germicidal prepa
ration, that destroys microbes, stimu
lates good circulation round the hair

water, anil It is delicately perfumed. It
Is a real toilet necessity.

you nothing unless you are perfectly
satisfied with its use. It comes in two
