TVill the press gain admittance to the Inner councils of the seven judges of Multnomah county's circuit court on Thursday, when court will adjourn for the day to permit the legal minds to concentrate on the task of selecting the names of three men from which Governor Olcott may pick the new Judge for the court of domestic rela tions. The question is agitating court cir cles considerably this week, the agita tion being due chiefly to the demands of the press for entrance and the stern refusal of the majority of the judges. There is something to be said for fcoth sides in the issue. The press in sists that without its presence during the august deliberations eomething might be slipped over on the dear peo ple, such as the choice of one quali fied man and two obviously unquali fied, insuring the gubernatorial selec tion of the one desired. But Judges Morrow. Tucker, Staple- ton and Kavanaugh thus far maintain the press has no right to set foot in side the portals during the process of eelection. Judge Morrow is very em phatic about it, avowing that it is no body's affair what men he votes for and that he is going to demand a secret fcallot even among the judges. All Not Opposed. Judges Gantenbein, Gatens and Taz "well lend a more favorable ear to the plea of the press. "We don't care who knows our eholce," the declares. "We are willing to lay the cards on the table." The attitude of the press may boil iflown to a desire to be where something is doing on a day when ail courts will be closed, but representatives of the newspapers maintain they are fighting an ideal. "Doggonit," they say, "the public ought to know how this decision is reached; whether it is all slated before hand, or whether the choice is made as the upehot of a regular argument in which the merits of various candidates re ruthlessly dissected." Then they throw some dirt. "It wouldn't surprise us a bit," they ay, "if one of these here judges has promised half the women's organiza tions and civic clubs in the city that lie would vote for their favorites, and - doesn't want it to get out just who he does stand up for." Judge Tucker Talks. "But, gentlemen, you really would tiot care to embarrass us by being there while we are discussing these candidates, would you?" asks Judge Tucker in a brotherly sort of way. "You know we may get very personal In our remarks, and while we know you would not publish those things, still think how embarrassing it would be to us. I am afraid that several would not care to talk freely in the presence of outsiders when a name was mentioned. I really think this is the sort of thing that the judges ought to settle all by themselves." "The upshot of the matter may be," pointed out Judge Kaxanaugh yester day, "that if the judges are compelled to invite the press to their meeting on Thursday they may decide to get to gether and make their real selection before than and merely meet as a for mality." Knowing of a few differences of opinion existing, the press fights on in the hope that those differences coulc Jiever be reconciled in the short time left before Thursday, even if all the judges could bet together and talk things over before then. And getting tall the judges to meet together is a difficult matter, as Presiding Judge Stapleton will testify. EUROPEANS ARE COMING 6ix Hundrde Families Expected Soon In Southern California.

It is not necessary to shampoo your Biair so frequently if it is entirely and jiroperly cleansed each time by the use of a really good shampoo. The easiest o use and quickest drying shampoo (that we can recommend to cur readers fs one that brings out all the natural (beauty of the hair and may be enjoyed t very little expense, by dissolving teaspoonful of canthrox, which can be obtained from any druggist, In a cup f hot water. This makes a full cup of ehampoo liquid, enough so it is easy to apply It to all the hair instead of just to the top of the head. This, when Tubbed into the scalp and onto every etrand of hair, chemically dissolves all Impurities. It is very soothing and cool ing In its action, as well as beneficial to both scalp and hair. After rinsing out the lather so created, you will find the scalp is fresh, clean and free from dandruff, while the 'hair dries quickly and evenly, developing a bright luster and a soft fluffiness that makes It seem very heavy. Adv. ARGONAUTS SEEKING GOLD 30 ADVENTURERS LEAVE SAX FRANCISCO FOR SECRET FORT. ARMENIA IN SAD PLIGHT Distress and Want Told In Letter From Physician. LONDOX. (Correspondence of the Associated Press) "The sights one sees in Armenia are almost beyond belief, and the tales one hears are too hastly tobe inventions." , This is an extra from a letter an Armenian medical officer, writing from the base of Mount Arara, to a fellow countryman in London. The letter says: "It may interest you to know of the awful state of distress existing in the country here. Thousands of people are homeless and absolutely destitute. In the town of Krvian alone there are 35, 000 refugees. Their country has been ravaged, the house burned, and the sur vivors who escaped with their lives have nothing, but the rags they are wearing. ."I have been sent down here to In quire into an epidemic of typhus among the native population. It is as serious as it was reported to be. "For months, the people have been cut off from all communication with the outside world, with the exception of a small area round Erlvan. The whole country has been overrun by its enemies. There are no supplies of any kind and the population is on the verge of starvation, many already having died of hunger. Schooner Casco, Once Home of Rob ert Louis Stevenson,' Carries Party to Alaska. SATf FRANCISCO. There sailed out of San Francisco bay a few days ago a little company of 30 men whose ship now is pointing toward the Arctic seas. Gold is the age old lure which inspired this adventure, which means cold and loneliness and discomfort. Possibly hunger and death. The schooner Casco is the vessel which is bearing the treasure seekers northward and in her cabin Robert Louis Stevenson once rote many a ro mance which these modern argonauts are likely to parallel. The ship's com pany includes men who have delver in the earth in all parts of the world. On them will devolve the operations required In mining. Men who have sail ed the seven seas are on board, and they will see to the navigation. Then there are men who have been success ful bankers and business men. To several of the latter, rated ell fixed in the matter of worldly goods, the ad venture impelled rather than any pros pect of financial return. But all thirty are share holders in the Northern Min ing and Trading company. It is another story of a search for a rich mining area where gold nuggest may be picked off the surface of the earth and where the ledges are in crusted with the precious ore. The location is a secret. L.S. McGirk a mining engineer, who has worked in the earth from Panama to Nome, is at the head of the party. His office is the musty little cabin in which Stevenson worked. The bat tered old desk on which Stevenson wrote still is in the cabin, splotched by ink stains from his pen. It is reported the adventure that led to the new voyage of the Casco was thrust on the man that found untold wealth in the Arctic, hen he and other members of the crew of a poaching sealer were chased by a Japanese cutter, and their small boat was wreck ed. He was starving when natives found him. But he forgot his hunger as his eyes rested on gold that fairly seeped through the earth. Without equipment, he says, he returned to civilization ith gold worth thousands of dollars. McGirk and others heard the story. Adventurers banded together. each providing his share of the estimated expenses. Some of the thirty sold all they had to get money for the venture. Others like Albin Johnson, secretary f the corporation, and Emanuel John son the vice-president, had found much gold in Alaska and are rich enough to buy a dozen mines. More than COO, McGirk says, had the money and the desire to go. But no man was chosen unless -he knew something of mining. Captain C. L. Oliver, the navigator, is not so much a miner as a seaman. Lieutenant Corbett Bland, who has been stationed at the Presidio for two -years, is one of the thirty. Then there Is "Pat."- Pat is a dog of the north, possibly a Russian olf hound. He as picked tip at the city pound. His great grandparents track ed through the snow of the Arctic. BREWERY TO CAN FRUITS Baltimore Concern Prepares to Meet Dry Conditions. BALTIMORE, Md.

Speaking be fore the National Confectioners' associ ation in its annual convention. V. L. Price of St. Louis, vice-president of the association and vice-chairman of the executive committee, warned the mem bers against expecting too much from national prohibition in the way of in creased business. Statistics based on states that are already i nthe prohibition column, he said, show that thrift movements, in cluding the savings banks and other forms of saving, first feel the effect of curtailment of liquor expenditures, while manufacturers of soft drinks and ice-cream, motion picture theaters and other forms o famusement and candy manufacturers benefit in the order named.
