BOOKS DESERTED FOR DAY J.ake Ii rates' Intrusion and Buck injj or Kckel Men Workers lea ture Hay of Aetivity at Col . v lege in IJcnovating Campus. V This morning .Heed College and its environs have a fresh, new aspect. The -- vleaners descended on Tleed College yesterday, more than 250 strong, for it was campus day and students and fac- ulty alike laid aside their books and -all thoughts of scholastic matters so that they might give their entire time to hard mcnual labor cleaning up the . a m p u s. .Systematic and orderly .work char acterized all the day's activities. Albert Centner and a, committee had care fully mapped out the day's labor and assigned each department to a special ' committee with a foreman in command to sen that everything moved off as . fcheduled. Each student had his or her place on .' a committee, so that no opportunities -'. lor shirking were offered. Brush Xear Pool Cut Down. Much was accomplished by the swim Tning pool committee in charge of Ro land Bristol. All the brush from the - margins of the pool was cleared away :ind burned, Grass seed "was planted on the banks that had been worn away. The dam. which held the water of the pool high enough for swimming and diving, was repaired and all of its leaks firmly stopped. Even the little rustic bridge across the outlet was renovated and made as good as new. All Khagren's crew put the athletic field in prime condition for the Spring track sports. The track itself was lev eled off as even as a floor and every weed and grass blade carefully scraped away. The baseball diamond was also ''slickly skinned and the entire athletic field was gone over carefully with - tveedcrs and lawn mowers. Tennif, Court Ik Repaired. The tennis court committee, with Cal Ilirsch in charge, repaired the planking - at the sides of the courts and painted the concrete with new linos. Some of the hardest labor was done by the path committee. With pickax and spade workers broke the ground from the athletic field to the gymna sium, and after tamping it down fin ished off the surface of the path with crushed limestone. The woods, lawn and flower commit tees were in charge of Gladys Keck, Laura Kelly and Miss Maida Kossiter. These committees were strictly fem inistic all men being barred. Armed with hoes and rakes, the co-eda invaded the woods and obliterated all traces of the silver thaw. Brush, trash and weeds all met a common fate in numerous " bonfires. Dandelions, that had treasured hopes I of dotting the lawn with yellow, were ruthlessly uprooted, and it is the preva--- lent rumor that they will appear in ' the form of greens on the commons tables for some time to come. Flower -. bods were worked with the trowel and hoe and many new bulbs and seeds " added to. their collection of flowers. Men. and AVomen 1'artlclpatc. uoth men and women participated in the work of the lake committee. Brush and down timber along the shores of Crystal Springs Lake were burned. The path from the campus to the lako was repaired. Missing boards were re placed on the walls of the canoe-house and the submarine stumps of the lake - were marked by white buoys, so that they may no longer sink neutral canoes without warning. - , Chairman Clark was unable to pre- - vent some small amount of mutiny '. nmong the masculine members of this ' committee. Early in the day they es ! tablished the precedent that every man on the committee must be immersed In the chilly waters of the lake. One by one, as they came down to work, they were pitched headlong from the end of the canoe pier, generally taking one or two of their friends along with them. Lake T'irate Give Chase. j Several members of the athletic field - committee were chased by the lake I pirates and took flight in a canoe. They c succeeded in sinking one of their pur . suers' craft, but were captured on land l ing and hurled headlong from the Tole I man-street bridge into the weedy wa ' ters of the lake. At noon a big picnic dinner was served in the dining-room by Miss Elizabeth rteed and the college girls. ; At the end of the day President Fob ; ter announced that more work had been ; done on this campus day than on any "..of the preceding, and the evening was - given over to a general frolic. An en--tertainment was given in the assembly "hall by a committee in charge of Bess Ilaverly. An animated magazine, called '"The Weed College Pest," was given complete with all departments, from serials down to confidential advice. The "vest of the evening was devoted to -dancing. BEAUTIFUL HOME BURNS Country Kesddenee on Upper Klam ath Lake Destroyed. KLAMATH FALLS. Or., April 5. (Special.) "The Cedars" the beautiful .- country home of B. Sit. George Bishop, on the north shore of Upper Klamath Lake, was destroyed by fire last Satur S daj- afternoon. The fire is thought to -have otiginated from a defective flue. The house was not insured, and is a - total loss, amounting to aDout $8000, including the furnishings. The home stood -upon the land entered - by Bishop eight years ago aa a home- - stead. Bishop had only received his -final receipt the day his home burned. However, he "is still undismayed. He - said yesterday, "There is a small house - upon the property that was not dam "ased by fire: my family and I will move m there soon and begin building anew." Vanillin Elects G. V. 3Ioorc Mayor.

MARSH EI ELD, Or., April 0. (Spe cial.) The steamer Nann Smith, char tered to William R. Grace & Co. for two voyages to the Orient, is the prop erty of the C. A. Smith Lumber & Man. ufacturing Company, and for the sec ond time since the European war opened, has been engaged for foreign service. In the season of 1915-16, Fall and Winter, the Nann Smith made two voy ages, returning to the trade between here and San Francisco in February last. Those voyages were to Chilean ports and the cargo to the south con sisted of general merchandise, and on the return trips, the vessel was loaded with ore to be reduced at the Tacoma smelter, where it was delivered. It is stated the Nann Smith's cargo to Japan and another Oriental dis trict, not named, will be raw munitions of war. She will sail on the first trip from San Francisco between the 6th and 10th of April, and deliver in Japan. Returning she will call at a Philippine port for a cargo of sugar, to bo deliv ered at San Francisco. Captain William Magee, who has been in charge orhe vessel, is a native of Coos Bay, and although a.' young man, has been successful since he was placed in charge of the Nann Smith four years ago. having picked up sev eral fine prizes in salvage. He is an able navigator, and careful. Until Captain Magee sailed the Nann Smith to Chilean Waters, he had never been off shore, but both voyages were made with entire success. ARMED MEN FOl'XD OX BOARD Revenue .'utter Overtakes Vessel .Starting for Halibut Banks. SEATTLE, April 5. The United States coast guard cutter Scout last night overhauled the launch Coaster off Apple Tree Cove and found 10 men on the launch, heavily armed. Captain Lichtenberg took the names . and ad dresses of the men, who are alleged to be striking halibut fishermen, and or dered the launch to return to Seattle. The power iishing schooners Seattle and Orient left Seattle yesterday for the halibut banks off Cape Flattery, and the coast guard service was ad vised by the owners of the boats that strikers on the Coaster intended to pur sue and attack the fishing boats. No charge was placed against the fisher men. BIG STEAMER CONTRACT LET Aberdeen Yard to Build Ship to Carry 1,200,000 Feet of Lumber. ABERDEEN, Wash., April 5. (Spe cial.) Andrew Peterson, manager of the Aberdeen Shipyard, has announced the signing of a contract under which he will build a second steamer for the Wilson Bros.' Lumber ' Company. The second vessel will be a sister ship to the Oregon, now building, and will be named the Idaho. She will be 205 feet long and of 42 feet beam and will have a capacity for carrying 1.200,000 feet of lumber. The keel for this vessel probably will be laid some time within the next month and the vessel is to be completed by December 1. The framework for the Oregon has been erected. 1 VESSEL FILLS SECOND TIME When First Floated "Water Gains on Fuinps in Hold of Twin Cities. Though safely floating yesterday, the steamer Twin Cities, which was beached in North Portland harbor the night of March 25 after striking & submerged log and seriously damag ing her hull forward, cams near' tak ing another submarine dive, for after being pumped out the hold filled 1 again, ant the numps were iiaabie to CLEAN-UP FESTIVITIES AT REED v. jets' frv jrr keep ahead of the water until a diver patched more leaks along the upper par.t of the hull. Just below the deck. As a soft patch had been affixed to cover the gaping hole forward the pumping operations made it possible to raise the sunken afterpart of the vessel to the surface, and in a week or 10 days she will be again in service between Portland and Lewiston. Re pairs will be made at the plant of the Portland Shipbuilding Company, and, from examination possible, it is thought much of the bow will have to be rebuilt. CANAL FLEETS ARE LACKING Dcinand for Vessels Felt as Well by Government in Moving Coal. Reiteration by General Goethals that the Panama Canal would be reopened April 15 has not brought forth an nouncements from steamship con cerns that they will resume service when the big ditcn is ready or even in the near future. C. D. Kennedy, representing the American-Hawaiian fleet at Portland, says he has not re ceived any advices bearing on the fu ture service and does not expect to so long as such fabulous freights are be ing paid for steam tonnage, which has drawn the liners into other trades. The situation is also one which the United States Government faces, as It requires ships for the transportation of coal from Norfolk to Mare Island, and bids to be opened tomorrow for moving 5500 tons of the fuel are ex pected to include railroad transporta tion as well. Steamsliipnien Go North. Concluding their investigations here for the present, Caesar Wehrhahn, managing director of the Kosmos line, of Hamburg, and Harold H. Ebey, San Francisco agent, left here yesterday for Puget Sound. Mr. Wehrhahn may continue eastward from Seattle, but in the event they return via Portland additional information will be given in support of the plan for including Portland in the itinerary of the fleet when a cessation of hostilities abroad makes possible a resumption of serv ice. Marine Notes. Numbered with vessels looked for in the Columbia Kiver today from California is the steamer Washington, which has been on the way from San Francisco since Sat U"dy, toaded with cargo for the Parr McCormlck line and under charter to the McCormlck interests to load a return cargo of lumber. Her work on navigation aids within Coos Bay having . ended, the lighthouse tender Manzanita departed from there vesterday for Astoria, where she will probably be given orders to proceed upstream and re move certain aids in advance of high water, expected when warmer temperatures pre vail. Captain W. w. McCully transferred the banner of the tlarkins fleet to the steamer Undine yesterday, when she returned to the .Astoria run, after having replaced the steamer Joseph Kellogg between Portland and Kelso for two weeks. Captain McCul ly changed from the Lurline. which went out of commission for boiler repairs and overhauling, and Captain Whitcomb again assumed command of the Kellogg, which left for "Kelso. Cloverdale Is the destination of the gas oline schooner Delia, which cleared yes terday with 2S tons of freight. Her crew being collected, final prep arations will probably be made today for the departure of the Norwegian bark Mus-selc-rag, grain-laden for the . United King dom. Annual Inspection of the steamer Wenona was conducted yesterday under the direc tion of United States Inspectors Edwards and Wynn. and the steamer Breakwater is on tho list to be Inspected tomorrow. Her repairs being terminated, the steam er Oregon, tender for the Columbia River Parkers' Asoctation In Alaska cannery operations, left down the river yesterday. She will make final preparations at Astoria for her northern trip. To work more cargo for delivery at Nushagak canneries of the Alaska-Portland Packers' Association, the bark Levi G. Burreas was shifted from Linnton to the North Bank dock yesterday. Suit has been instituted at San Francisco against owners of the schooner Hugh Hogan to collect $1 5,000 salvage on behalf of the owners and crew of the steamer Bear, -which picked tip the schooner off Point Reyes Monday, the- sailer being help less and endeavoring to make her way under a Jury rudder. The Bear was en route from Portland to the Oolden Oata, and assisted the Hogan to the entrance, where she was taken in tow by a tug. . . Bound to Tongue Point to load a full cargo of lumber, the steamer Edgar H. Vance, Captain Dick Srike, passed Into the river at R-.15 o'clock last night, bailing Xrom Saa Franciaot CO LLEGE YESTERDAY. ferry-Cf&-rcrj 7 LAW KEEPS SHIPS IDLE THREE SAILING VESSELS UXABLE TO GET CERTIFIED CHEWS, Seattle, Tacomi, Everett and Portland Combed in Vain! Steamers Also Have Similar Trouble. SEATTU3, Wash.. April 3. (Special.) W'ith charter rates at their highest point in history and every day's delay meaning huge additions to operating costs, practically every sailing ship to leave Pugct Sound in the last two months has gone to sea in violation of the new seamen's act as regards the required number or certified seamen. Three big windjammers loaded with lumber for Australia today are tug ging at their anchors unable to sail. The American six-masted barkentine K. R. Sterling, largest of her type afloat, loaded with 2,500,000 feet of lumber, was ready to sail thefcmiddle of last week, but is swinging still here while search for sailors is on. Seattle, Ta coma, Everett and Portland have been combed in vain for the vessel still is three men short. Steamships operating in the foreign trade are also facing a similar condi tlon. Foremen, oilers and steward de partment . workers, as well as seamen are hard to get on the Sound and in other North Pacific districts. When the American - Hawaiian liner was ready to sail from Tacoma for Vladivo stok under charter to H. F. Ostrander, of Seattle, an average increase of $10 a month In wages had to be granted in order to retain the vessel's regular crew. The Portland Chamber of Commerce has appealed to the Seattle Chamber of Commerce to petition Washington, D. C. for relief. It asks the Seattle Chamber to join in petitioning that the certified seamen requirement be sus pended until conditions change. The Seattle Chamber has referred the ques tion to its foreign commerce commit tee. AZOHES IiIGITTS EXTINGUISHED Sailers From Portland for United Kingdom Are Cautioned. Attention of masters of sailers lying here, either loading grain or awaiting cargoes, has been directed to notice issued by the Hydrographic Office to the effect the American Consul at Pon to Delgada has informed the United States Department of State that all lights on San Miguel Island, except at Arnel and Ferraria, have been extin guished. Three vessels dispatched from Portland In March with grain were cleared for the Azores for orders and It is believed more will follow that routo so long; as German submarines menace British waters. Of the fleet In port the French bark Bossuet hauled upstream yesterday from the ballast berth of the Star Sand Company, St. Johns, to the North Bank dock, where she loads a cereal cargo for the United Kingdom. That leaves but one vessel to load now in the river, the British baric Invergarry, which is lying at the dock of the North Pacific Lumber Company to unload ballast. ENTERPRISE TOWED TO POUT Mo ana Managed to Regain Control of liiner After Hawser Parts. SAN FRANCISCO, April 5. The steamer Enterprise arrived here today from llilo. T. H.. in tow of the steamer Manoa, with a broken tail shaft. Nearly al! of last Sunday, when the accident occurred, the Enterprise wallowed help lessly in the seas, 4S0 miles off San Francisco, until the Manoa reached here in response to a wireless call for aid. Yesterday, in a heavy sea, the towing hawser parted, and again the Enter prise was buffeted until the Manoa re covered her tow. Both vessels are owned by the Matson Navigation Com pany, of this city.

DISABLED TDG WITH TOW REFUSES AID Beaver Captain Says Naviga tor Expected to Make Re pairs and Arrive Today. ENGINE BOLT GIVES WAY 'Bis Three"' Steamer Lands 150 Travelers Hero and $26,000,000 Consignment of Rullion and Pull Cargo Arc Carried. Although broken down nine miles southwest of Tillamook Hock, the tug Navigator, towing the schoner Mon terey, oil-laden for this city, declined to accept assistance from the big coaster Beaver, Captain Mason. The master of the Navigator reported that the trouble was duo to a bolt giving way in the high-pressure cylinder of the engine and that he expected to make repairs so as to reach Astoria to day. Captain Mason brought his vessel to her berth at Ainsworth dock late last night, his tardy arrival being due to the fact she was detained leaving San Francisco Monday, sailing from there at 7 o'clock that night. Some of the 150 travelers who dis embarked from the Beaver here made the through trip from I.os Angeles and carried with them no less than $26,000. 000. It made no difference that the wealth was in the form of bullion and was shipped in bond from los Angeles to San Francisco, they told their friends about all the money they traveled with just the same. Valuable Conxlenment Oellvered. Needless to say Captain Mason was much relieved Sunday when the val uable consignment was delivered and his responsibilities ended, for he had visions of trouble, all the way from an attack by a Villa submarine to hold up experts being stowed away below. G. T.. Blair, general manager of the "Big Three" fleet, came in on the flag ship, being on a regular trip to this terminal of the line. He was here a few weeks ago, being particularly in terested then In work being done aboard the liner Rose City, and now expects to find the overhauling has advanced to a marked degree. Full Cargo Isi Carried. The Beaver was full of cargo, al though the total was only about 2000 tons, whereas she customarily loads 2700 tons here and has been known to have handled a deadweight load of ap proximately 3200 tons. The reason for the filling assortment this trip is that there were heavy shipments of hay, the California dealers having been able to sell their Oregon connections a large amount of fodder. Numerous parcels of wheat and other grain continue to move southward. The movement of hay this way is recorded almost every season, as Oregon stocks become low and even some of it goes into the Tillamook region, which is famed for dairying. W. R. Bagot. Alec Curtis and R. Rau returned after brief California visits, the latter bringing a new automobile. AMi LINES MAY" INCREASE Steam Schooners I'ind Lumber More Profitable Tlian General Freiglit. Announcement by the San Francisco & Portland Steamship Company of a general advance In northbound rates, effective May 10. has not been followed by agents of other fleets operating be tween Portland and California harbors, though it is expected. The Great Northern Pacific, with the turbiners Northern Pacific and Great Northern, and the North Pacific fleet, now con sisting of the Breakwater and F. A. Kilburn. are expected to be included in the same rate changes. As to the Farr-MeCormick fleet, which is made up of steam schooners, it is assumed there will be rate in creases on those vessels, though, of course, maintaining a lower schedule than the regular lines, as has been the system in the past. Steam schooner operators say that with the higli freights on lumber southbound the transportation of general cargo north bound is not attractive, owing to the time lost in loading and discharging, which could be utilized much more profitably in handling lumber.

"All Bosh Coffee Doesn't Hurt Me" says the cynic but, we live and learn and at some time of life many coffee drinkers wake up to the fact that the drug, "caffeine," in coffee is "getting them." Headache, nervousness, biliousness, heart flutter, insomnia, etc., are often signs that coffee is getting in its work; and the growing knowledge of its true nature has led thousands of former coffee drinkers to turn to Instant postum This famous food-drink tastes much like mild Java coffee, but is entirely free from caffeine and other harm ful elements ever present in coffee. It is made of whole wheat and a small portion of wholesome molasses, and permits Nature, unhampered, to carry on her work of daily re-building brain, nerves and muscles. Postume comes in two forms: The original Postum Cereal must be boiled ; Instant Postum requires no boiling a level teaspoonful.in a cup of hot water makes a de licious drink instantly. Both forms are equally delicious and the cost per cup is about the same. "There's a Reason" for POSTUM Sold by Grocers everywhere. PURSUERS IN BAGS Once Natty Cavalryman Now Shabbily Clad.

"Their faces were contracted with gray alkali dust: they bad been without regular rations for some days; coffee, salt and tobacco were beyond price: and yet. through their haggard dirtiness, the men smiled with their eyes and told of their rcsoluto purpose the getting of Villa."

Captain Drake also told of reports current throughout the Guerrero coun try that the American troops obtained their information that Villa had been wounded from an American physician taken captive by the bandit band and forced to treat the leader's wounds. H asserted that he did not learn the name of this physician, who was said to have been a resident of one of the towns through which Villa passed, and de scribed the wounds as consisting of it bullet through the ankle and another lodged in the hip. The returning truckmen were able lo give few details of the Guerrero battle, but asserted that all of the four wound ed American troopers were again con tinuing the hard ride after Villa on tins second day following the engagement. Troopers said that the Villista. marks manship in the engagement was ex ceedingly bad. practically all the shots going high.
