SAILING LAPSE - DUE
Rose City Held at San Fran
cisco for Repairs.
AINSWORTH DOCK JS CLEAR
J-'or First Time In Six Months Xo
FYcight Is Held Over Awaiting
Shipment and Bear Clears
With Some Space Left.
For the first time 4n over six months
AInsworth dock Is clear of freight
awaiting shipment to California and
as there will be no steamer - to get
away for 10 days, owing- to the Rose
City having been held at San Francisco
for repairs. General' Agent "Wells and
his staff have reason to feel that the
new year opened auspiciously. '
The steamer Bear sailed at 4 o'clock
yesterday and on her went the last
pound of cargo that had been delivered
rax the dock. She did not have a full
load, though little space was left. She
had. 160 cabin passengers and nearly
100 In the. steeragre. Captain No-
ler sent greetings from the ship to
those ashore with three whistles as the
liner was about to pass through the
Broadway bridge, and he Is seriously
considering a suggestion for amending
the International signal .code, which
lacks flags signifying "Merry Christ
mas," "Happy New Year" or "Greet
ings." To send such salutation would
have required a number of flags, so It
was omittted.
The Ainsworth dock force was the
recipient yesterday of an annual card
from the men constituting the com
pany's staff on pier 40, San Francisco.
It was a painting showing the steamers
Bear, Beaver and Rose City entering
the Golden Gate at midnight and on a
piece of heavy paper, attached to the
card with red ribbon, were the signa
tures of the San Francisco contingent.
Itfhas been customary for years for the
two forces to exchange cards.
Dr. Charles Blllington assumed his
duties yesterday as surgeon for the
line here, succeeding Dr. David Nelson,
who served over four years 'and re
signed last month. A medical officer
in retained to guard against contagious
diseases being carried aboard the ves
Steward Martin, of the Bear, was the
author of an attractive menu card for
last night's dinner aboard, which In
cluded a selection of New Year edibles,
from celery to "plum duff."
MKXICAX
BUSIXKSS
SOUGHT
North l'acific Obtains Steamer to
Start Opposition.
From San Francisco sources comes
information that the North Pacific
steamship Company, handling the
Roanoke, Yucatan, George W. Elder
and Alliance from here, has secured
the steamer Cetriana with which to
invade the Mexican field, and that she
is to load at San Francisco January
15 to 20 for Mazatlan, San Bias and
Mahzanillo, calling Ht Los Angeles on
the way. The Pacific Mall has oper
atcd on the route for years In connec
lion with its Panama and South
American schedule, and the Jebsen line
has used the steamer Jason In the same
field.
The entrance of the North Pacific
into competition with' the established
lines may gain for Portland many ad
vantages should rates be cut, but, ship
ments from here will have to be
transferred at San Francisco the same
as has been the case when routed via
the ian Francisco & Portland steam
ers and turned over to the Pacific
Mail within the Golden Gate.
NAVY
ITSXISTMENTS
GAIN
Ueeruitlnfr Office Here Gathers 314
.Men During Year.
Uncle Sam's Navy gained 116 more
recruits through the Portland office
In 1913 than for the preceding year,
the total accepted having been S14
men. For 1912 the enlistments reached
198. During four weeks ending Christ
mas day, 68 men wqre passed as fit.
whlfch Is rated as an unusually good
showing.
Besides petting more material from
this territory It Is said the class of
men Is decidedly acceptable, which Is
largely attributed to the fact many
having trades are drawn Into the serv
ice owlnjr to opportunities for advance
ment, while men following laboring
vocations, who are not busily engaged
In Winter, frequently select the Navy
as their future sphere. The assump
tion that the opening of the Panama
Canal will mean the regular move
ment of Nai;y vessels from one coast to
another, also permitting frequent ex
change of stations between vessels of
the Atlantic and Pacific fleets, may
stimulate enlistments In advance of
1915.
NORTHljANT
BIDS
SCANNED
Kassal to Be Repaired at Steel Plant
In Eight Days.
Portland shipbuilders and marine
contractors gathered aboard the steam
er Northland yesterday with Captain
Bodge and Consulting Engineer Tom-
linson, of 'the Dodge line, to go over
details of bids filed for repairs to the
vessel and instructions are looked for
from the San Francisco office today as
to the award, the bids tiavins been tel
egraphed there last night. It Is hoped
to start repairs tomorrow.
The Beglian ship Kassal, which was
Injured forward when struck by the
Northland, was towed to the plant of
the Willamette Iron & Steel Works
from the stream yesterday, that firm
having been awarded a contract to re
pair her for $2400. She Is to be ready
for sea In eight days. ,
CUT FUEL BECOMES SCARCE
Mills. Running Part Time, Reduce
Supply for Dredges.
To provide sufficient cut fuel and
sawdust to keep the dredges of the
Port of Portland suing ' on channel
work is a problem being wrestled with
by that department and stuff is being
gathered frQm several points, as some
of the sawmill plants are not running
full tun1, owlnj? to the holidays.
The dredge Portland has about five
days' work at Morgan's Bar and if fuel
ran be delivered to her she will finish
and bo towed into the harbor in an
other week to start digging that has
been in contemplation for some time.
The dredge Willamette Is In North
Portland harbor and should finish the
channel there this month. The Colum
bia is getting results In dredging bo
hind Sand Island in opening the marine
Toad to Fort Canby. None of the crews
labored yesterday. t

FORESTER IN FROM CALIAO
Failure of Inveravon to Arrive Can
cels Her Grain Charter.
Completing the voyage from Callao
In 61 days the schooner Forester was
towed into the river yesterday by the
tug Oneonta. She is believed to have
been mistaken for a ship when off the
river Wednesday night, a report to
which effect was responsible for spec
ulation as to whether the Chile had not
made a' speedy passage. However,
there having been no Information to
the contrary sent by the Port of Port
land tug masters, a. squarerigger may
be outside.
The Inveravon has been on the way
about 90 days from Callao and her fail
ure to arrive Wednesday tost her own
ers a gram charter, she having been
engaged by M. H. Houser at 42s d. The
Clyde and Inverurie left down yester
day with grain for the United King
dom, being the first of the squarerig
gers handling cereal to depart In '1914.

While the weather conditions outside
the mouth of the river were slightly
lmnroved todav the bar Is still rough
and no vessel with the exception of the
bar tug Was able to cross out, although
a few came In.
Owing to the strong swell running
the tide was unusually high, but no
damage of note resulted.

The schooner Forester, which arrived
today from Callao, reports an unevent
ful but slow trip of 62 days up the

Preparatory to sailing today with
freight and passengers, the McCormick
steamer Multnomah left down for bt.
Helens yesterday to take on the last
of her lumber.
Chief Dowell. of the fire department.
made an Inspection of the new munici
pal boat landing at the foot of Stark
street yesterday and pronounced it an
Improvement long in demand. He spoke
of the good effect the concrete walls
on each side of the fill would have In
the event of a fire beneath docks on
the south, and said one menace on the
waterfront would be eliminated when
property owners bulkheaded beneath
docks- and the Port of Portland filled
behind them.
On the Royal Mail liner Den of Air-
lie, due in another week from Europe
and the Far East, are consignments
from Antwerp, Rotterdam and London
for- Portland, in addition to Oriental

LEGE. Corvallls. Or, Jan. i. (Spe
cial.) Everything Is In readiness at
the Oregon Agricultural College for
.the influx-of farmers, housewives, busi
ness men, mechanics and students from
every other line of interest who come
annually to the college to attend the
short course. Registration will open
early Monday morning, January 5, and
the work wlil continue for a period of
four full weeks. ,
The programmes, which are just
completed, ' cover practically every line
of instruction of Interest to thoBe in a
position to devote four weeks to study.
While principal stress Is laid upon -the
agricultural and domestic science work
such subjects as applied economics and
engineering are included in the cur
ricula. '
"We have the best-planned course
that has ever been offered at the in
stitution." said Dean Cordley. ' "We
have 'made a special attempt so to or
ganize the work as to make it possible
for those in attendance" to pursue any
One of five major' lines of study. The
programme is built with the idea of
giving this choice In horticulture,
agr.onomy, dairy husbandry, animal
husbandry and poultry husbandry. In
addition to this, there are the various
lines of work in domestic science and
art arranged so that the women may
carry on this work to the best possible
advantage." .
College Herds Increased.
The college was never in better con
dition to handle the short-course work
to advantage. The new stock barn has
just been completed and the livestock
located formerly at the -experimental
farm has been brought to the campus.
The college herds have also been great
ly Increased and Improved arid In ad
dition to this there will be a carload
or two of choice livestock sent in by
1 some of the best breeders In the North
west, to be used in the stock-judging
contests and In the demonstration
Vork. . ,
The horticultural department is ar
ranged to give an alvanced course
especially designed for those who have
attended the short course In previous
years. The work will be a continua
tion of the Instruction given at former
courses. This is the result of a de
mand on the part of the former stu
dents for work which will make It pos
sible for them to continue their study
over a period of years.
Each of the several departments is
giving a course in the instruction that
will be entirely practicable and appli
cable to the conditions under which
the farmers of Oregon- are working.
The scope of work is Indicated b
the lecture subjects for a single day.
The work, as scheduled for Tuesday,
January 6, is as follows: Judging
swine, handling of fruit, poultry rais
ing, dressmaking, food preparation.
commercial law, letter writing, cream
ery butter making, economic entomol
ogy, chejry Industry, soli fertility,

word picture by their learned instruc
tors, but will be required to wade
through the mud In the college or
chards, judge the college herds and
pound the iron in the blacksmith
shops. "
The advance inquiries Indicate that
the attendance will be greater than at
any previous year. The Interest has
been increasing constantly for the last
several years, and the wider adver
tisement of the work this year and the
general improvement of the courses is
expected to bring about a great in
crease tn the attendance.

County Town on List.
WOODBURN, 0Jan. 1. (Special.)
The saloons of this city closed their
doors last night In accordance with .the
vote against licensing: of saloons and
thla city again entered the "dry" column,-
This is no new experience for
this city, for during the past 10 or 12
years the records show the city to have
been voted wet and dry at Intervals
of one or two years. It is thought
that the male vote would have been
strongly In favor of licensing: saloons,
for with 355 women voting, the city
went dry by only 4a votes out of Ti3
cast.
