MOTHER SHOOTS TOTS
E
Blind Man's Buff Offered as
Excuse for Blindfolding.
SANITY IS QUESTIONED
Plijioian Says Mrs. AVinnifred
Graham 'ill Recover From
Self-inflicted Wounds.
SEATTLE, Wash. Nov. 2. (Spe
cial.) Jlrs. Winntfred M. Graham
laughingly told her children she would
play blind man's buff with them
last Friday just a few momenta be
fore ehe fired five shots at them,
killiiip her son- Niel Vaaaar Graham,
years old, and perhaps fatally
wounding her daughter, Elizabeth
Dorothy, 4 years old.
"I put bandages around their eyes
and sat them on the bed. I couldn't
stand it to look into their eyes. While
they were sitting- on the bed waiting
for me to eay when the game was
to besin, I shot them."
This is a statement made by Mrs.
Oraliam to Dr. K. B. Schrock, who is
attending her. After shooting her
children, Mrs. Graham turned the gun
on herself in an attempt to end her
own life. Today was the first time
tince the tragedy that Mrs. Graham
has been able to talk about it.
Worry Given as Reason.
"I did not think I was killing my
children," she said. "The way I looked
at it they were just passing on. It
was impossible to leave them behind.
They could not live without their
mother."
Dr. Schrock explained that Mrs.
Oraham had been worried over the
plight of her aged parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Cluff Vassar, living near Mis
soula, Mont., who recently lost every
thing they possessed in a forest fire.
"She had tried to induce them to
come to Seattle to live with her,"
he said, "but they wished te remain
in Missoula. Then, last Thursday,
the night before the shooting, she
attended a moving picture show with
a neighbor. A Current Events picture
was screened depicting the ravages
of a forest fire on farmers' homes.
This brought vividly to her memory
what her parents had suffered."
Mrs. Graham told Dr. Schrock she
decided to seek suroease in death be
cause she felt she could not longer
live without her parents. She al
ways had been perfectly contented
with her home life, according to tha
doctor.
Home Life Pleasant.
"Any of the neighbors will tell you,"
he declared, "that they were a most
affectionate couple. They appeared
to be, and I know, were supremely
happy with their children."
When Mr. Graham called at the hos
pital to see his wife yesterday she
nade him promise he would not go
home until she could go with him. He
is at present living with his parents.
Dr. Schrock said that Mrs. Graham
is now out of danger, but that men
tally she has not quite recovered. She
does not realize the f rightfulness of
the tragedy, he staged, and speaks of
it as she might of an ordinary oc
curence. Dr. D. A. Nicholson and Dr. Arthur
P. Calhoun made an examination of
Mrs. Graham to determine her mental
condition. This action was taken at
the instance of the prosecuting at
torney, it was said, and a report will
be made to the prosecutor.
Little Elizabeth was in a critical
condition last night, it was eaid by
Dr. Schrock. The little girl was shot
through the right side with, one bul
let, which inflicted only a flesh
wound, but the serious wound was
made by the second bullet, which en
tered the upper center of the abdo
men, passed through the liver and
out the back, injuring the spinal col
umn, causing partial paralysis of the
right leg.

FOOD SHOW EXHIBITS
35 Concerns Represented in
Attractive Booths.
SAMPLES ARE PRESENTED
Portland Housewives Are Given an
Idea of Importance of Vari-
011 a Growing Industries.
Of the 4i exhibitors having booths
in the 1919 food show, which ripened
at the armory last Wednesday, all but
nine are Oregon firms, and ie dis
play is a revelation to the housewife
unfamiliar with trademarks from this
state. The evenings have drawn
large crowds and a heavy grocery
order business has been done. This is
not entirely local trade, the custom;
era representing a large territory
throughout the northwest.
That the show ts attracting interest
in more places than Portland is
proven by the order blank in one stall
for a single night, when the demon
strator found he had listed people
from McMinnville, Eugene, Marsh
field, Seattle, Salem and Dunsmutr,
Cal. Every one of these had ordered
products at the booth.
Two of the familiar brands not gen
erally recognized as labels on Oregon
goods are Carnation milk and Del
Monte fruits and vegetables, both of
which art among the displays. While
headquarters of the concerns distrib
uting these goods are in other states,
a generous share of their supply
comes from western Oregon.
Kevr Prod act Appears.
A new recruit among local food
show exhibits is the Phez brand.
While this has heretofore appeared
on the drink bearing that name put
out in Salem, this is the first time
the company's jams and Jellies have
been a part of the annual show. The
Phez company representatives are
dispensing samples of them on crack
ers as well as the already well-known
loganberry and apple drinks.
At the Hazelwood booth one may
obtain samples of omelets made from
Blanchard condensed eggs, a paste
like substance put up in cans. To
finish up a breakfast menu there are
several brands of oatmeal mush being
passed out at Albers Bros., Crown
mills. Golden Rod. Portland Flouring
mills and Fisher Flouring mills
stands, while at another place Golden
West coffee is being dispensed by a
demonstrator from Clossett & Devers
Bakeries are well represented, and
one may sample warm loaves from
the Log Cabin, Royal. New York,
United States and Haynes-Foster
plantst The last has installed an- elec
tric bread wrapping machine, which
automatically folds and pastes waxed
papers on the loaves.
Occupying the center of the hall is
the booth of the Tru Blu Biscuit com
pany, which has more than one draw
ing card. On one side of the stand
is a big glass window before which
are seated two girls from the factory,
engaged in placing fresh cream fill
ing in Wellington wafers, to be dis
tributed among the crowd. The com
pany a.lso has a unique advertising
stunt in the form of button-hole
labels, each bearing a nu-mber. To
the person locating a mate to his
number will be given a big box of
candy.
Recipes in Demand.
The Pacific Coast Biscuit company
has also a. comprehensive display of
dainties and some of the favored
visitors are permitted to sample the
newest chocolate creams being put
on the market by the firm.
Requests for recipes come In right
and left from each sampler. One
woman wants the sauce that goes on
Mrs. Porter's plum pudding, or her
husband is begging for information
as to the ginger bread Mrs. Humph
reyes of the Crown mills bakes.
There are those seeking pointers on
the oatmeal cookies and hot cakes
they are feasting on and the ones' that
proudly announce they have learned
the secret of Fisher's raspberry jam
scones.
King's Food Products company has
an interesting display of dehydrated
fruits ana vegetables. These are
shown both before and after soaking,
the moist substances appearing much
as fresh products. A regular milk
dispensary is being operated by the
Portland Milk Distributors' associa
tion, and if this drink is not suited
to the taste, there is an entirely dif
ferent kind being dolled out by the
Henry Weinhard plant, which has
Luxo. "
The food show will continue
through this week. It is open from
1 o'clock in the afternoon until 11 at
night. Band concerts and dancing in
the ballroom are daily features, as
well as home economics lectures bv
Miss Lassie Lane of Oregon Agricul
tural college.
Waist Company Moves.
Making room for erreat exoansion
in the business, the home of the W. J.
Ball Waist company, makers of the
well-known Palmyre silk waists, was
moved last week from the second
floor of the Broadway building to
the top floor of "the Royal buildiner.
The move was made on Thursday and
,before the end of the week the ma
chines were humming merrily in the
large and airy workroom provided in
the new quarters. A feature of
the moving was the carrying of
the great cedar cutting table, 40 feet
long, about five feet wide and four
inches thick, out of the Broadway
building and up to the new quarters
by means of pulleys arranged at the
side of the building. A seven-year
lease has been secured on the new
quarters.
The new rooms, which formerly
were occupied by the McCreery Manu
facturing company and the Soldiers
and Sailors club, provide floor space
over twice as great as the company
had in the Broadway building. The
main work room contains 5000 square
feet of floor space without a post In
the room, has windows on three sides
and a skylight, and is unusually light
and airy. Room is provided for 80
machines. At the present time the
company has 45 machines and 60 op
erators, and turns out an average of
100 or more silk waists per day. It
is the expectation to increase the
number of operators soon, with the
additional room which has been pro
vided and the expanding demand for
tne high-class product turned out.
In addition to the main work room
me new quarters provide a handsome
office, a show room for display of
hundred? of beautiful creations in
lace and silk, a stock room where
thousands of dollars worth of bolts
or silk, ribbon and lace are stored
and a lunch room for he empioves
where coffee and cream and sugar is
served free of charge during the noon
nonr.
The W. J. Ball Waist company was
the pioneer concern of the kind in the
racitic northwest, having been es
tablished three years ago. The con
cern now holds the position of the
largest manufacturing plant of its
kind in this section, and the new
quarters have been praisei- by buy
ers who are familiar with eastern
firms, as being as commodious and
up to date as anything of similar
nature in the east.
W. ' J. Ball, head of the company,
is vice-president of the Associated
Industries of Oregon.
Southern Markets Discussed.
South American markets for Amer
ican canned goods are discussed by
the bureau of markets of the depart
ment of agriculture in a report Just
issued, treating with the markets In
Venezuela and Ecuador.
"Venezuela prefers canned fruits in
glass containers,'1 the report says.
"Venezuela annually imports a large
amount of canned goods from Spain,
France and Italy, owing perhaps to
the tasty arrangement in glass con
tainers of the product from those
countries, according to a report from
the American vice-consul at Mara
caibo. Recently the United fitates
has been exporting large amounts of
canned goods and if the goods are put
up attractively a profitable market
may be developed.
"The Importers prefer to have fruit,
especially jams, preserves and jellies,
put up in glass Jars holding about
one pint or more. They should come
packed preferably 24 to each pack
age." Speaking on Ecuador as a market
for canned goods, the report goes on
to say: "Canned fruits are imported
by Ecuador, chiefly from Chile, the
United States and Spa'in. Of a total
amount of 73.833 pounds, about one
third was imported from the United
States in 1916, according to statistics
furnished by the American consul
general at Guayaquil. Half the im
ports of jellies 11,215 pounds came
from .this country. Spain furnished
42,743 pounds of olives, but the United
States ranked second, with a total of
16.407 pounds. One-third of Ecua
dor's imports of tomato sauce 6634
pounds was furnished by the United
States.
According to the consul-general,
these goods are used generally, "it
being rare to take a meal in which
they are not served. Fruit in tins
should -be strapped. When the con
tainers are glass or crockery they
should be packed in excelsior or
straw in barrels."
The co-operative office of the bu
reau of foreign and domestic com
merce, of which the Portland Cham
ber of Commerce is a branch, has on
file publications issued by the bu
reau of foreign and domestic com
merce, dealing with South American
markets for American canned goods.
Those interested chouid apply to the
Chamber of Commerce, requesting
Special Agents' Series Not. 131 and
148.
