NEW YORK TO GET LUMBER - 12 CA A Goods left at Salina, Cmz and- Pu erto Mexico by American - Ha waiian Ships W111 Be Taken Through by British Vessels. Cargo from Portland tor New York and ports abroad will pass through the Panama Canal on the steamer Santa Clara, of W. R. Grace & Co.'s line, which arrived here yesterday from the Atlantic side by way of the Straits of Magellan and San Francisco. She berthed at Albers dock to dis charge a part of 2100 tons of freight and goes to the South Portland plant of the Northwest Steel Company to unload 750 tons of steel. On getting rid of her Inward con signments the Santa Clara Is to pro ceed to Puget Sound and when fully discharged is to take on the first of her outbound cargo, calling here for a considerable amount of lumber, sal mon and miscellaneous shipments. On leaving she will have over 4,000,000 feet of lumber for New Tork, 500,000 feet of which will be from Puget Sound. Laths, shmgles. door stock and doors, redwood, canned goods and wine will be included. The Santa Clara calls at Panama to discharge 1,000.000 feet of lumber. The American-Hawaiian officials are confident the steamer Nebraskan will get through the canal in sailing from San Francisco June 13. She loads on Puget Sound so as to depart from there June 5, and leaves Los Angeles June 16. The company has entered into an arrangement with the Swayne & Hoyt interests to transport Portland cargo on vessels of that fleet until the American-Hawaiian service is thoroughly re-established. Cargo remaining at Salina Cruz and Puerto Mexico, where it has been cared for since the American-Hawaiian abandoned the Tehuan tepec route owing to complications in Mexico, is to be handled by the British steamers Strathdon and Ulidia that have been chartered for the purpose, and with that congestion relieved it is believed all future business will be sent via the canaL CUZOO OFF FOR WEST OOAST Chilian Navy Orflcer Goes to Study Commercial Transportation. On the departure today of the Nor wegian steamer Cuzco, one of the .South American liners operated by W. Ji. Grace & Co., Lieutenant Verdejo, of the Chilian navy, will be aboard as the guest of Captain Johann Erik Miller, commanding the Cuzco, the of ficer from Chili being on a dual mis sion of studying commercial matters and to obtain special instruction from his superior regarding two submarines, the Iqulque and Antofogasta, that are under construction at Seattle. Captain Concho, of the Chili navy, and Lieutenant E. Von Schroeder are at Seattle to represent their govern ment during the building. The vessels are being turned out by the Seattle Construction & Drydock Company as subcontractors under the Electric Boat Company. They will be finished about September, says Captain Concho, and are to be towed south by an oil tanker. The Iquique was designed after the "F" class of submarines in use by the United States Navy, while the Anto fogasta is more like the Holland type. The Cuzco will have a full cargo for ports as far as Valparaiso. On the 'way an additional house is to be con structed to the upper cabin that will be used as a women's lounging-room and is to be of Oregon fir throughout, the finish being veneer paneling of extra width. IOCK EXG IXEEK ItETTJKXS 31 r. Hegardt Gathers Data to Be Used in Marine AVay Here. G. B.

Misplaced Ballots May Result in ZMsplacement of One Candidate. Tisappinted Girls Control Tear as Fate Told Them. QUEEN ROSE IS ELECTGfD (Continued From First Pa ge. ) the judges will give the affected con testants a chance to contest the elec tion. All of this took time, with the re sult that the actual count was not started until after noon, for the mere segregation of ballots represented much arduous toil. Vote Counted Three Times. No election returns were ever count ed with such care. Bach candidate's total was checked, counter-checked and finally checked a third time before being placed on record. The figures went In turn from Judge iiatens' in spection to Dr. Dyotfs. and then to JJr. Pier's. No one was allowed near the tables, ropes being stretched from the door to the corner of the room, diagonally opposite. Even a repre sentative of the newspaper, who, in trying to get the latest returns, over stepped the bounds, not of decency, but of the rope, was gently, but firm ly, escorted to the door by the genial Baker. "They don't know you as well as I do, and. they all think that the other has a confederate trying to get in here to either bribe us or drop In some more votes. Take my keys, get an easy chair out of my office and sit down gently in one corner on the legal side of the rope, and Just wait patiently," smiled the dictator, and the fervor and fever was so high that the newspaperman thought it politic to do so. Occasionally some candidate would arrive to learn how the count was progressing. Toward midnight their numbers increased. When a candidate would learn that she was out of the race and had no chance to be even a maid of honor she would smilingly try to keep back the tears until she could get into the corridor. There was not a move made by a man Inside the ropes that was not un der conostant scrutiny. Judge Gatens found a small packet of ballots, prob ably about 35. belonging to one of the candidates. He was not sure whether they had. been counted and was in the act of indorsing them: "These ballots may not have been counted," when the representative of that particular can date could contain himself no longer. "Here, Judge, what are you doing there?" he shouted. "Why, these votes may not ehave been counted. I am going to put them in this envelope and have this girl's entire vote recounted," said Judge Ga tens, with a rather tired smile. - The first eight candidates' votes to be counted totaled over 700,000 votes, with five exceeding 1,500.000, bearing out the belief that 1,000,000 -votes would be required to secue any con testant a place among the favored. 12.

' How she was transformed Irom a helpless cripple to a well woman through the use of Akoz, the new medicinal mineral, is told by Miss Julia A. Hyde, of 489 Fell Street, San Fran cisco. She suffered for eight years from sciatic rheumatism, and was forced to give up her work as hotel housekeeper, which she had followed for fifteen years, having: been connect ed with such hotels as the Vendome of San Jose, Hotel Green of Pasadena, and the Palace and Occidental Hotels of San Francisco. She is ready to resume her work again. She writes: "About three months before the earth quake of 1906 I was stricken down with a most severe case of sciatic rheuma tism, and began taking electric treat ments. The fire coming along deprived me of those treatments. The shock and exposure at that time made my case apparently hopeless and unfitted me to take up my work. "After taking many medicines, with poor results. I came to the conclusion that there was no cure for rheumatism, and was told the same by some doctors. "I noticed in the papers that Akoz was highly recommended by many re sponsible San Francisco people. I called for one month's treatment, and, to my surprise, before the month was up I saw a decided change for the better. '-to f :t...i'A: - I MISS JCLU A. HYDE. After taking half of another month's treatment I can go up and down the stairs without assistance, and can use my hands and fingers freely. Pain is all gone. After suffering eight years 1 will take up my work again, as I am no longer a cripple. Akoz is a wonder ful treatment. I can't praise it too highly." This is only one of the thousands of letters from men and women who have got relief by using Akoz for rheuma tism, stomach trouble, . piles, catarrh, eczema, ulcers and other ailments. Akoz is sold at The Owl and all other leading drug stores, where further in formation may be had regarding this advertisement. m m EO E3 ED m m -To Women- Seeking Health and Strength For those ills peculiar to women Dr. Pierce recommends his "Favorite Prescription" as A medicine prepared by regular graduated physician of unus ual experience in treating woman's diseases carefully adapted to work in harmony with the most delicate feminine constitution.

Mrs. Charles Meierhaus, who resides at 619 Haraona avenue in this city, and who IS sergeant-major of the Young People's Corps here, has the following to say about Plant Juice: "For a number of years I have been a great sufferer with stomach trouble and nervous debility. Gas would form on my stomach and cause me great dis tress, and at times I could not retain my food at all. I also suffered a great deal with headaches and had some catarrhal trouble of the throat. I heard of Plant Juice and purchased a sup ply; it seemed to give me almost in stant relief for my throat and head. Since I have been taking Plant Juice I sleep better, my appetite is good and my food seems to agree with me. It seems to have toned up my entire sys tem, for I feel better in every way. I am glad that I tried this remedy, for I had tried so many things and none of them seemed to do me any good. I can heartily recommend Plant Juice to any one." If you have indigestion, a feeling of weight in the stomach, headaches heartburn, sour stomach, coated tongue, if you sleep poorly, have no appetite, wake in the morning tired and. worn out, have poor circulation, dizzy spells, nervousness and are run down gener ally, try Plant Juice. It will bring back your appetite and color to your cheeks. For sale by The Owl Drug Company. Adv. "Rheumatism No More" Compounded by B. F. DAVIS, 8C Louis, Mo. For sale by all druggists. a
