BEND, Or.. Nov. 16. (Special.) Aleo
Kali, who shot and probably fatally
wounded James B. Dickinson Friday
night at the latter's homestead cabin,
60 miles southeast of Bend, is still at
large.
No word has been received today
from Sheriff Elklns who is scouring
the sagebrush country after him, or
from Deputy Sheriff Stevenson. The
posses are remote from telephones, and
communication with them Is impossible.
Another posse left PrlneviHe late to
day, fearing members of the first posse
might have met with some mishap in
the wild country they are searching.
Dickinson Reported Worse.
Dickinson's condition Is worse to
night. The bullet Is lodged near his
stomach. Physicians say the bullet has
pierced his liver and right Kidney, and
that death Is expected at any time. Ap
parently his only hope of recovery lies
in a delicate operation for which it
would be necessary to take him to The
Dalles Hospital, and it is feared he
could not survive this trip.
Kail, whose home was at Elma,
Wash., came to Bend the first of the
week with Mrs. Dickinson, and went
to the; Dickinson homestead with her.
Dickenson, in the meantime, had come
to Bend to meet his wife, whom he
expected to arrive here. Dickinson
learned that his wife and Hall had
(tone to the homestead and immediate
ly followed. He arrived about .11
o'clock, burst in the door and imme
diately was shot by Hall, who was
with his wife. Dickinson alleges In
what probably Is a. dying statement
that Hall's relations with his wife
were improper. No other motive than
fear of attack at the hands of the hus
band is accepted as Justification for
the Instant use of his gun by Hall,
nail Hr ports Shooting.
W. R. Speck, who drove Dickinson to
the homestead did not hear the shot,
but a few minutes later Hall came to
him, saying:
"I Just shot Dickinson! Get a doctor!"
He offered no explanation, and dis
appeared immediately. With the en
tire country aroused it is not thought
he can escape.
Mrs. Dickinson at first strenuously
denied that there was anything im
proper in her conduct with Hall, but
later weakened In her stand. .Various
men. Including the driver of the car
which took her and Hall to the scene
of the tragedy, declare that Hall was
most familiar with her and was not re
buked. They had been at the same
hotel here for four days previous to
going to the claim. Hall, it is under

Mrs. M. M. Sleeth, state evangelical

city hall at 2:30 o'clock. Important
business will come up at this time.
The St. Johns new branch library,

the taxpayers' committee today made
public its report
The committee, comprised of W. H.

poor quality, laid with lime mortar;
the plumbing is bad, the ventilation
poor, the east wall rests on a dirt foun
dation and the basement floors are
rotting. The building is declared, how
ever, to be in no danger of collapse.
The taxpayers expect to have a per

Lowell W. Tart.
NEWPORT, Or, Nov. 16. (Spe
cial.) News of the death of
Lowell W. Taft, a well-known
resident of Newport, at Colusa,
Cat., has been received here.
Mr. Taft was born In New York
State In 1832, and came to
Yaquina Bay 18 years ago, after
having spent some time at Cor
vallls, where he conducted a res- -taurant.
His first venture here
was an effort to reclaim a tract
on South Beach for cranberry
culture. Not having sufficient
capital to carry this project
through he went to work at his
old trade that of a cooper, and
for several years made barrels,
going into the forest, cutting
down the trees and going through
the whole process of barrel-making
by hand.
In 1909 he became a member of
the firm of Blakely! Taft & Co.,
general merchants.
urday. Alderman Martin wants the
city to secure a pumping apparatus as
well as a chemical engine. If this
pumping apparatus is ' added It will
mean an additional cost of (4000, but
would give St. Johns a modern fire
engine. The plan of paying for the
apparatus by a bond issue is favored,
bonds to run at least 20 years. It Is
pointed out that by that time St. Johns
will be annexed to Portland which will
assume the payment of the bonds.

Many Washington Cities Attend
Rites in Little Town.
TACOMA, Wash.. Nov. 16. (Special.)
In the presence of a gathering such
as the little town of Lacey had never
before seen, the new J75.000 St. Mar
tin's College building was dedicated
formally this afternoon. The college
was founded 17 years ago by the Order
of St. Benedict.
The dedication ceremonies were un
der the auspices of the Knights of Co
lumbus, of Olympia, Council No. 1643
Knights representing the councils of
Spokane, Seattle, Olympia, the Grays
Harbor cities and a delegation of 150
from Tacoma were present. The Ta
coma men went on a special train over
the Northern Pacific.
The ceremony of dedicating the
building, conducted by Bishop O'Dea at
2:80 o clock, was followed by a pro
gramme of addresses. The speakers
included State Deputy Carmody. of
Seattle, of the Knlghvs of Columbus
State Council; Justice Chadwlck, of the
State Supreme Court; Governor Lister,
and Bishop O Dea. The programme
closed with the singing of "America" by
the audience, led by St. Martin's band.
Justice Chadwlck and Governor Lis
ter complimented the Benedictine Fath
ers on the magnificent building and
urged tne need in education of getting
back to the old standard, whereby the
teacher came into individual contact
with his pupils.
Bishop O'Dea in his address scored
sex hygience and eugenics, and de
clared. In effect, that the future of
the Nation depends upon educating the
heart and the conscience, as well as
the mind.
EXTENSION SCHOOL
PLEASES FARMERS
Lewis County Agriculturalists
Turn Out in Big Numbers
and Are Enthusiastic.
PLANS FOR FUTURE MADE
Front-street commission men have re
ceived more inquiries from prospective
shippers than ever before.
Prices, therefore, are likely to be on
a reasonable basis, as compared with
those that prevailed last year and two
years ago. The wholesale price may
be from 2 to 6 cents less than last
Thanksgiving. The decline is not likely
to be greater, in the - opinion of the
dealers, as other poultry is selling high
and meats are more expensive than
last year. The absence of ducks and
other wild game on the market this
season also will operate in preventing
much of a reduction in turkey prices.
Wholesalers and retailers are unable
to predict what the Thanksgiving quo
tation will be. as the turkey-growers
and country shippers refuse to make
prices so far ahead. In the expecta
tion of a plentiful supply the dealers
are deferring their purchases until the
last moment.
Last year the retail price was 30
cents for the best young turkeys. That

CHE HALTS, Wash., Nov. 16. (Spe
cial.) Yesterday marked, the close of
most successful farmers extension
school here, many farmers of the coun
try trioutary to this city being in at
tendance. The largest attendance of
farmers, their wives, sons and daugh
ters, on a single day, was close to 250.
but It is estimated that during the week
upwards of 400 farmers were present
at one time or another. Many were
present at all the sessions, but since
the programmes were varied, covering:
dairying, fruitgrowing, poultry raising
and other special topics, some of
which jid. not particularly interest
every farmer, there . were some who
did not attend excepting on the days
wnen the programme was of particu
lar interest to them.
Next year another school will be
held and much enthusiasm is shown.
It is confidently believed that the
Chehalis sessions will mark an epoch
in tne matter of better farming in this
part of the State of Washington. -
More , Fonda Are Likely.
The State Collesre at Pullman, under
the auspices of which the school -was
held, has a liberal appropriation avail
able with which to carry on extension
schools and. with the passage of the
Lever bill, which may come up at the
regular session of Congress, more
funds will be available.
Under the terms of the bill in Ques
tion the Federal Government will sup
ply the same sum that each of the
states does to carry on extension school
work. This in itself will make it pos
sible for the State of Washington to
do more toward developing farm In
terest over tne state through the State
College.
In this connection, aiul lookinar to
the future, it is said that in the next
few years it may be arranged not only
to have a farmers' extension school of
a week in the various centers that are
cnosen, but that a course of instruction
lasting two or three or even four weeks
might be arranged. At these extension
centers a reg-ular course of instruction
would be put on, classes conducted and
experiment and practical demonstra
tions given for dairymen, the ccnnnl
farmers, fruitgrowers, poultry raisers
and all other rural folk.
under such a Dlan it Is hl'irri
there would be remarkable stimulus
to all lines of farming.
Chehalis Has Aspirations.
Chehalia plans to be designated as
an extension center under such a plan.
since mis city nas demonstrated that
it has the farmers near who appre
ciate the opportunities offered. Other
towns in Washington where extension
schools have been well attended likely
will be designated as extension centers.
With from 20 to 40 of such centers
over the state much could be accom
plished In stimulating agricultural development.
At the Chehalis school last week the
subject of dairying was paramount
with the larger number of farmers
present. Chicken fanciers were also re
warded by the lectures on poultry.
Professor J. A. Torney, who is in
charge of the State College extension
work, did the moralizing for the corps
of instructors. He pointed out to
those present the ideals toward which
all should strive to make life better
ana brighter on the farm and in all its
walks.
Following the session of the exten
sion school the farmers in attendance
adopted, resolutions In which they ex
pressed appreciation of the efforts of
tne men who conducted the institution
approved the Lever bill; suggested the
organization of the Lewis County
uarmers extension Association: au
thorized the appointment of a commitr
tee to cp-operate in a move to make
the extension school an annual event;
urgea tne establishment of a demon
stration farm near Chehalis; favored
tne appointment or a county farm ex
pert; praised the Citizens' Club of Che
halls; promised a big; attendance at
meetings that will be arranged for
"Farmer" Smith, of the O.-W. R. & N.
Company; favored the erection of a
state powder factory at Chehalis and
indorsed the invitation that has been
extended to the Washington State
Good Roads Association to hold its
next convention at Chehalis.
In accordance with the resolutions,
Charles Gessell, of Forest, who was
chairman of the school, selected the
following an executive committee: J.
C. Bush, Chehalis, chairman; Elmer
Scherer, Chehalis; H. W. A. Tramm.
Chehalis; Glen Roundtree, Curtis; Peter
Thompson, Chehalis; v. L. Bevington,
Chehalis; Mrs. A, M. Follett, Chehalis.
This committee likely will arrange
to hold sessions of the Lewis County
Farmers' Extension Association at in
tervals between the regular extension
schools. At these sessions the state
will provide such instructors and lec
turers as the farmers' committee may
a&K lor, thus Keeping up the interest. -

There is a good prospect also for
cheaper egg prices before long. The
wholesale price of fresh Oregon eggs
now stands at 47 cents, the quotation
that has prevailed for the past two
weeks, but this high figure has checked
the consumption to a considerable de

been made to ' raise the wholesale

Factional Dispute Among Electrical
Workers Is Most Troublesome
Question in Sight Council
Will Oppose Pressmen.
SEATTLE. Wash.. Nov. 16. Tha Ameri
can Federation of Labor will begin its
second convention week tomorrow, with
the prospect of having committee re
ports ready so that no adjournments
for lack of material need be taken.
The convention has already adopted a
resolution instructing the executive
council to seek a Federal investigation
of the Colorado coal strike, and the
Harriman system shopmen have ob
tained the aid of the federation in an
effort to have the two-year-old strike
in the shops mediated along with the
Texas Railroad strike begun last week.
The Vancouver Island coal strike will
not be brought before the convention,
but will be left to the Canadian Trades
and Labor Congress, in co - operation
with the United Mine Workers of
America. Resolutions on the Michigan
copper strike are pending. So far no
formidable opposition to the re-election
of President Gompers has ap
peared. Jurisdictional trade controversies
threaten to occupy many hours of the
convention's time. Most of the dele
gates are heartily sick of these con
troversies, which lead to many strikes,
especially in the building trades. The
bringing of these disputes before the
convention each year is used as an
argument for the organization of in
dustrial unions.
The most troublesome question in
sight Is the division in the ranks of
the electrical workers, there being reg
ular and insurgent brotherhoods, with
nearly equal membership. The Reid
faction, which is strong on the Pacific
Coast, has made efforts for reunion, but
the leaders of the McNulty, or regular
faction, are not inclined to make con
cessions. The controversy between the press
men and the executive council, growing
out of the Chicago pressmen s strike,
is likely to lead to a heated fight in
the convention. The International
Pressmen's Union insists on organizing
the newsboys and carriers in a union
subordinate to the pressmen. The In
ternational Typographical Union main
tains that the newsboys and carriers
are merchants, not skilled artisans, and
should not be organized in unions. The
executive council of the federation
sides with the Typographical Union and
against the pressmen.
The Socialist delegates to the con
vention were entertained at a dinner
last night by the local Socialist or
ganization. Addresses were made by
Max Hayes, of the printers; John H.
Walker, of the mine workers; Council
man Feeler, of Los Angeles, and others.
All the speakers exhorted Socialists to
join trade unions if eligible and to be
loyal to the unions.

Plan Also Calls for Erection and Opera
tion of Flour Mill of Capacity
of 200 Barrels.
TACOMA. Wash.. Nov. 16. (Special.)
The co-operative store plan is to be
tried out in Tacoma. Articles of incor
poration have been filed for the Con
sumers' Manufacturing & Supply Com
pany: officers elected and a deal closed
for the four-story building at 2138-40
Pacific avenue, where the association
will have its store. The members of
the association each subscribed for a
$20 bond, redeemable at face value in
five years, and secured by the build
ing, and the association win buy its
goods in the open market and sell to
members at cost, plus 5 per cent.
The association plans a 200-barrel
flour mill as part of the use to which
it will put its building, and the balance
will be devoted to groceries and house
hold supplies, the members feeling that
by buying in large quantities at whole
sale they can materially cut the cost of
living. They assert that associations of
this kind are in operation In England
and Australia, and meeting with suc
cess, and they believe like results can
be obtained in Tacoma.
D. M. Morgan has been elected presi
dent of the association; E. A. Spauld
lng, vice-president; L. D. Stone, secretary-treasurer,
and John W. Berry,
head of the flour mill. All are quite
well-known citizens, formerly in the
real estate business here.
Pacific Highway Work Halted.
CENTRALIA. Wash.. Nov. 16. (Spe
cial.) The Lewis County Commission
ers are unable to secure a quarter of
an acre of right of way for the Pacific
highway near Toledo, and as a result
it now looks as if the calling of bids
will be delayed until the courts can
determine the amount of damage in
flicted on this particular piece of prop
erty. But for the delay the $20,000
Job, which means the employment of
many teams and men, would have been
started before the first of the year.

It la a comfort to know that those ranch-'
talked-of pains that are said to precede
Child - bearing may,
easily be avoided. No
woman need fear the
slightest discomfort i
she will fortify her
self with the well
known and time-honored
remedy, "Moth

This is a penetrat
ing, external anDlica-
tion that at once softens and makes pliant
the abdominal muscles and ligaments. They
naturally expand without the slightest
strain, and thus not only banish all tenden
cy to nervous, twitching spells, but there ia
an entire freedom from nausea, discomfort,
sleeplessness and dread that so often leave
their impress upon the babe.
The occasion Is. therefore, one of un
bounded, joyful anticipation, and too much
stress cannot be laid upon the remarkable
influence which a mother's happy, pre
natal disposition has upon the health and
fortunes of the (feneration to come.
