At 4 o'clock the men started on the return trin and reached Government rmn at 6:35 o'clock. Mr. "Warner then went on nine miles further down to Khododendron before putting up for the night.

Ms Warner was enthusiastic over the trip and eaid there was a possibility of developing a rreat tourist travel to this state to . limh Mount Hood. This, he said, was one of his objects in climbing the peak. -Tourlnta Coold Be Draws Here." "If the possibilities for climbing Mount Hood six. seven or eight months inathe year were only advertised prop erly." he said, "and the splendid view to be obtained told 'of. thousands Oi tourists would come here every year. There is a particularly good oppor tunity to bring tourists here now that Europe is closed up. Jerry E. Bronaugh. president of the Mazamaa. said that to his knowledge no one had ever scaled the peak so early in the year. He said that the earliest ascent previously had been made the first of June by a party under Miss Anne Dillinger. The Mazamas make their annual climb to the top of the mountain on July 1. whom are well known In Portland: En gineer Lawrence Katzenberg, Harry L.

The Laurelhurst Club held its weekly dancing party Friday night. Dr. and Mrs. Duane A. Fellows were the host and hostess. Mr. and Mrs. Holmes had charge of the dancing, which was turned Into a cotillion. Later In the evening Mr. Holmes led the dancers through a number of new and pleasing German figures. Parson's orchestra furnished the music. The decorations were ferns and Spring flowers, and the punch was a new novelty that was pre sided over by the women. The Laurelhurst Club meets every Tuesday and Friday. Tuesday night is a dancing night, and the Friday night gatherings are alternately one week dancing and the next week rardplaying. The board of the club voted to cut the initiation fee from 415 to $1 until June 1. and have started a membership cam paign.

I proceedings In Circuit Judge Kava naugh's courtroom yesterday, resulted in some blood-letting, and brought forth an ominous threat of steel bars from the judge. "Before court formally opened at 9:30 o'clock, Mr. Logan and Mr. Manning neatly groomed, and bearing them selves with all the dignity of ex perienced barristers, stood In front of Clerk Charles Strode's desk discussing a case which they were to try. It was a suit for damages against the Oregon Electric Railway Company, and Mr. Manning was counsel for the plaintiff. Mr. Logan asserted that Mr. Man ning had "jockeyed" in court to have the case set at a time when the de fendant's attorneys were not ready for trial. Mr. Manning said this was not true. Mr. Logan said it was. Mr. Manning denied this assertion emphati cally. Short Word Is Passed. Mr. Manning said Mr. Logan lied. . Mr. Logan said Mr. Manning was a crook. Then somebody struck the first blow -each now declares it was the other. Before a few spectators the lawyers "mixed it" in lively fashion. Man ning's fighting weight is 200 or there abouts. Mr. Logan prefers to weigh n at 140 ringside. The first few blows brought blood to Mr. Logan's nose. Then Mr. Logan landed a right cross which shattered Mr. Manning's spectacles and left him blinking like an owl and swinging wildly. Mr. Manning swung a lusty right to Mr. Logan's left eye, cutting a deep gash with a well-timed "cork screw" punch. Chairs Are Overtnrned. - Chairs were overturned and tables j pushed aside as the attorneys fought madly back and forth across the courtroom. Then R. R. . Giltner, attorney, and Charles Strode, clerk, interfered. They pulled the combatants apart and stepped between them. Mr. Logan was bleeding profusely. Mr. Manning was blinking and rubbing the knuckles of his right hand. Mr. Logan retired to Judge Kava- naugh's chambers to wash up. The Judge had just arrived, too late for RETAILERS EAGER FOR NEW COMMERCE ORGAN E. J. Jaeger, for Three Years President of Merchants Association, Heralds Consolidation Into New Chamber as Reaper of Increased Enthusiasm. of TALKS ON CONSOLIDATION. NO. 13. ETAIL merchants with whom I have talked are exceedingly enthusiastic over the plans for new consolidated Chamber of Com merce to take the place of the Com mercial Club and the old Chamber," said J. Jaeger, for three years president the Retail .Merchants Association. We are especially pleased witn tne proposal to give the retail merchants representation on the board of di rectors. It is only because they have been compelled to form their own organiza tion to protect their own interests that the specialty s.tores have been luke warm members of the Chamber and the Commercial Club. Give us recognition in the big business body and pay atten tion to our needs through a retail mer chants' bureau, and you will find the retailers only too glad to support the new chamber. Then we can concen trate our work Instead of dividing 'our effort amongst so many organizations. "Repeatedly the retail merchants have agitated for a consolidation. Often we felt entirely out of touch with move ments being fostered by the Commer cial Club or the Chamber, and failed to render the support we could have given had we been affiliated properly. This led to misunderstandings which should not have occurred. Now that there is a definite prospect of securing one united commercial body, we feel that wa should support the movement."

While sh?' Mr Logan explained the fight to the judge. Then, having rearranged his clothes and secured -a. piece of court plaster for his eye, Mr. Logan fared forth into the corridor. There stood Mr. Manning recounting his experi ences to an associate. - "You didn't fight fair, you big stiff, declared Mr. Logan, advancing on his erstwhile adversary. "I cleaned you up, even with my glasses broken," asserted Mr. Man ning. "You can't call me a crook and get away with it." Both "Mix It? Again. Then they "mixed If" again.

"I think he hit me first." ald Mr. Logan afterwards, "but I'm not sure of that. Anyway, I know he jockeyed this case to get it ahead on the docket, and I wouldn't stand for that." " "He hit me first and then I tore into him." said Mr. Manning later. "Out In the corridor where the floor is marble I was afraid to hit him hard for fear he might fall and get hurt." and Mr. Manning rubbed his swollen knuckle reflectively.

(Spe cial.) In the final series of debates for v.kima. Vallev Tonpenish High School won over Ellensburg High School here on Saturday nlt EMBEZZLER IS PUNISHED EX-POSTMASTER AT GARIBALDI SENTENCED TO 13 MONTHS. Charles F. Alexander Pleads Guilty, but Wins Leniency Wlfen Amount ' la Made I'u to Government. Charles F. Alexander, postmaster at Garibaldi for two years, pleaded guilty yesterday before Judge Bean In Fed eral Court to a charge of embezile raent from the Government and was sentenced at once to serve a sentence of 13 months at the Federal Peni tentiary at McNeill's Island. He is held at the County Jail and will be taken north by an attache of United States Marshal Montag's office within the next few days. ' Alexander was Indicted by the last Federal grand jury and was arrested by Federal authorities in San Fran cisco two weeks ago and brought here for trial. It is eaid he went to San Francisco to raise money to make up the shortage. Friends came to his rescue and reimbursed the Govern ment to the amount of his peculations, about $1603. Because the losses were made up, a plea for leniency by J. J. Jeffrey, of Portland, and John H. Webb, of Sal Francisco, attorneys for Alexander, was successful. It was stated to the court, however, by United States Dis trict Attorney Reames that the ex postmaster was also short in his ac counts with the express company and the railroad, whose agent he was. Alexander, who is a prominent man in the Tillamook country, with many friends, Baid he could not tell where the money went and attributed the shortage to lax methods of bookkeep ing. He admitted, however, that he was $500 short in. his accounts in Jan uary, 1914. ' Marked carelessness seems to have marked hiSj accounting, for his books had not been balanced for eight months. It was said. One method whereby- the Govern ment was defrauded was in collections of "C. O. D." parcel post packages, Alex. andcr failing to remit the money to the postal department. When he went out of office a year and half ago, yie defalcation was discovered by his suc cessor. North Yakima Debaters Win. WAPATO. Wash.. March 9. (Special.)

RECIPE TO CLEAR A PIMPLY SKIN Pimples Are Impurities Seeking an Outlet Through Skin Pores. Pimples, Kures and boils usually re sult from toxins, poisons and impuri ties which are generated in the bowels and then absorbed into the Mood through the very ducts whl'h rhould absorb only nourishment to sustain ths body. Jt la the function of the kidneys to filter impurities from the blood and cast them out In the form of urine, but in many Instances the hnwela create more toxins and impurities than the kidneys can eliminate, then the blood uses the skin pores as the next best means of getting rid of these Impuri ties which often break out all over the skin In the form of pimples. The surest way to clear the skin of these eruptions, says a noted authority. is to get from any pharmsry about four ounces of Jad Salts snd take a tablespoonful in a glass of hot wster each morning before breakfast for one week. This will prevent the formation of toxins in the bowels. It alio stimu lates the kidneys to normal activity, thus coaxing tlism to filter the blood of Impurities and clearing the skin of pimples. Jad Salts Is Inexpensive, harmless and In made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with llthla. Here you have a pleasant, effervescent drink which usually makes pimples dlnappear; cleanses the blood and Is excellent for the kidneys a well. Adv. Li
