Williams, new president of Albany college, some time in January. The date has not been fixed but plana are going, for ward for an event in -which prominent Presbyterians from various sections of the state -will participate. The board of trustees of the college has appointed a. committee consisting of J. M. Haivkins, Dr. Wallace Howe Lee and C. C. Bryant to arrange for the Inauguration ceremonies. The board of trustees has commit ted to the new president the outlin ing of the programme of develop ment which will be followed in the next few years. Mr. Williams, when asked for a statement regarding the future policies of the college, said that his election to the presidency was a surprise to him and that a programme of action had not been worked out. He said, however, that he contemplated no faculty changes at this time 'and that the high standard of scholarship and the distinct Chris tian character of the school would bo maintained. Other matters per taining to the inside management of the school are under consideration, be said, and would be announced later. 'Financial Plan Detailed. "We at Albany remember that Al--bany college Is a child of the synod of Oregon of the Presbyterian church," said the new president. "The synod last July commended the col lege to the Presbyterian constituency over the state, particularly in the matter of the new financial plan which the trustees began to put un der way last summer. Thi3 plan originated with the general board of education in New York, of which Rev. Edgar P. Hill, D. D., a former pastor of the First Presbyterian church of Portland, is the secretary. "The board proposes that in the next th- years we raise $30,000 in Oregon fW ne college and that they will gi-" college $15,000 in the three j-. About one-third of Ore gon's Quota was subscribed last sum mer by hi citizens of Albany. In Albany Ve expect in January to .in crease onr subscriptions to J15.000 nd then go over the state to get the balance of the needed J30.000 to meet the offer of the general board of education. This money, it is found, with the income from the permanent endowment, will enable the college to meet its current needs. Co-Operation Is Welcomed. The college will seek also to com ply with the synod's direction respect ing closer co-operation with the United Presbyterian church in the general management and control of the Institution." Alfred Melvin Williams, the new head of Albany college, is a native of Oregon. His parents were pio neers, coming to the Willamette val ley in their youth. He was graduat ed in 1896 from the college that has elected him ,its head and was grad uated in 1903 from the Cumberland university in Tennessee, being an honor man in his classes in both schools. He was editor of the Cum berland Weekly, the student paper in the southern institution, was a mem ber of the Phi Kappa Alpha frater nity. He was editor of the college annual one year and on the staff of that publication other years. Since returning to the coast he has served as pastor of Presbyterian churches in McMinnvllle, Seattle and Albany. Some of the trustees in speak ing of Mr. Williams' fitness for the presidency of Albany college have in dicated that in this case the time has come for the abrogation of the old adage that a "prophet is not without honor save In bis own country." SUGAR PUNT TO CLOSE StlNNVSIDE; WASH., FACTOIiY IS SHORT OF FUEL. Thousands of Tons of Beets Remain Undelivered and Quantities Still In Ground. TAKIMA, Waeh., Dec. 7. (Special.) Shortage of fuel in the Yakima val ley owing to the strike will cut short the season of the Utah-Idaho Sugar company's plant in Sunnyside, accord ing to company officials. The Sunny side factory will close down as soon as the beets now on its dump are cut, and undelivered beets will be eut to the Toppenish plant, which has coal sufficient for an extended run. Ten carloads of coal are being shipped from Toppenish to the Sunnyside plant to enable the latter to finish its season. Thousands of tons of beets remain undelivered and many are still undug. Freezing will not hurt them, but thev cannot bo dug until the weather mod erates. Forty-five thousand tons of beets hai-p been delivered and it is said that 15.000 to 20,000 tons remain undelivered. The company, says Manager T. R Home, shortly after the first of the year will begin a campaign to in crease the production of beets to en able the factories to make long runs The company proposes to lease all available land. The fame of Yakima as a beet-growing section is attract ing the expert growers from other sections he said, and these men will be placed on the land. Women In Java Eager to Come to Oregon. Two "Bachelor adle" In Orient llave Lyra on Hood lllver. HOOD RIVER, Or., Dec. 7. (Spe cial.) Because America is a land where educated women may work In the acids, if they choose, without be littling themselves, and because it is a land of prohibition Madame Van Doetinchem of Soekaboemi, Java, Dutch East India, wants to come to Hood River. Madame Van Doetinchem, who says the is an officer's widow, writes the Hood River commercial club that a number of copies of Better Fruit, for merly pulilioiieU kuio but now issued in Portland, recently came to her in a batch of books sent out by relatives, fcihe writes: "We should like to look over the situation at Hood River for our people at Singapore who have some money and who might invest in Hood River in the orchard business. Being two bachelor ladies we should like to pio neer for them and other friends. "Will you kindly tell us what is the cost to travel from Tacoma to Hood River by train or motor car? Can we bring our dog with uh over there? Are there many Germans and Hol landers in the orchard business at Hood River? Reason why I ask this is that we are Hollanders with Ger man and English relations, but. even born in Java, we are white people. "Could you advise us a decent hotel t . 'i f A. M. Williams, new president ' of Albany college. where ladles can stay In Tacoma? I guess when a motor car is not eo expensive, traveling by it Is more interesting and we can see everything properly. How many days do we travel by car? "I guess when we are there and do not find the cost of living too much we will send for our little grand daughters, that they can learn and enjoy the country life and business and partake of good schools. Such scorching weather like here is really a hell for children as well as adults. "My daughter and I have no money ourselves, except my pension monthly and support from family, and if there are opportunities for well educated ladies -to work in orchards we should like to join it and earn some money. Here In Java well educated ladies can't work everything they like. 1 admire the Americans with their most beautiful law and that everybody can do the work he likes and is not called low at all. And then what a great luck to be in a prohibition state,' and not like here among always drinking people. How many Dutch families are unhappy because the husbands drink and the young sons, too! Isn't that a shame, and the government doesn't stop it. Yes, America is won derful, and I hope we can arrange matters to come there and earn some money, first by working with others to learn, and then by and by for our selves. "We read much about the rabbit plague there. We will take our dog with us. He is a wonderful hunter for that little rogue. Do you think fares are high for a dog?" TWOHRMB VETERAN DIES CAREER OF JOSEPH FRISCO OF WAIiJjA WALLA thrilling. Capture of Hungarian Revolution Soldier Followed by Entry In Union Army of U. S. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Dec. 7. (Special.)

When be was six months of age his father died; his mother remarried, and when Frisco was 10 years of age his mother, four step-brothers and sisters and his stepfather died of cholera.

BUSY SESSION FORECAST Spirited Debate Is Expected When Universal Military Training Bill Conies Up for Action. SEATTLE, Wash., Dec. 7. (Spe cial.) None of the members of Wash ington's congressional delegation who came home for the recess between jthe special and regular sessions has been able to do much campaigning for next year's election. Representative Lin H. Hadley of Bellingham, representing the second district, started back to Washington last week without trying to visit all his district. Representative J. Stan ley Webster of Spokane, who spent Saturday in Seattle and will leave for home today, intending to start back to the capital Monday night, found his canvass of the fifth district cut short by bad weather. Representa tive John'F. Miller of Seattle has been confined to his home by a bad cold and though he does not intend to reach Washington until late in the month it Is doubtful whether he will get over the first district. Representative Webster, antici pating a protracted session of con gress and the likelihood that he will be unable to get home before late In the summer, expected to go into Oka nogan and the northern tier of coun ties. Snow made traveling by auto mobile impossible and in the short time he had Representative Webster found the railroad trains would not let him cover this district. Spirited Debate Expected. Representative Miller, who is a member of the house committee on military affairs, expects some legis lation on universal training before the regular session adjourns. Discussing the condition of legislation on that subject, Mr. Miller said today. "Universal military training as out lined by the various bills pending before congress will precipitate prob ably the most interesting, and spirited debate to be had at the present ses sion. The bill as outlined by the war department and which has the In dorsement of the general staff of the army provides for a three months' course of training, commencing in the 19th year of all able-bodied boys in the country. "For good cause shown, based upon necessity, the training may be delayed for a period of one year. The ma chinery for the registration of those subject to service, is very similar to the selective draft law. Every boy is required to register within 60 days immediately following his 19th birth day, be physically examined and en rolled. Those having minor physical defects capable of being remedied by medical or surgical treatment are given the option of having such treatment performed by surgeons of their own choosing at their own cost; otherwise the army surgeons will be called upon without expense to the registrant. HealtK Chief Object. "The training season probably will be during June and the first half of July. Either one or two classes will be organized and trained and then they will be combined during the sec ond half of July and the month of August. The idea is to have the training at such times as to interfere the least possible with the school year and also the vocational employ ment of those not attending school. "The idea is not only to lay the foundation for a soldier's duty, but devote strict and detailed attention to health, hygiene and moral instruc tion and probably certain vocational lines. Courses of study and lectures will be prominent in the training. "The army bill provides that after the training, certificates shall be giv en and the boy discharged from fur ther service. "Other bills provide for a six months' course with the same gen eral training and in addition thereto the registrant is placed in the na tional reserve to be called out only in case of war. Educators, army of ficials, hyglenists and hundreds of civic organizations are pressing legi- lation not only on the ground or pro viding an adequate military reserve in case of emergency, but on account of the betterment of the health of the young men of the land.

Tribute to the lad's bravery is paid by Dr. W. H. Johnson of Charleston, S. C, captain in the medical corps and stationed at the horpital. "Not an unnecessary gtoan was ut tered," Dr. Johnson writes, "and if a new patient were admitted and began to complain, someone would be sure to say 'look at Gribble," who was not known to utter a groan or change the expression of his countenance in the dressing or operating room when everybody knew he was suffering tortures. The immense wounds in his left thigh were packed to the bone with gauze and he bore other marks on almost every part of his body. "In all, I dressed daily 12 wounds he bore. One night we found the bed soaked with blood from one of these. but rather than disturb other patients he had not called, and had sacrificed much blood.

Come on and see for yourself I NO ADVANCE IN PRICES MS SUR PRISED Mrs. Winter Could Hardly Walk When She Began Taking Tanlac. "I had been troubled with rheuma tism so long that I couldn't walk, but since I have taken Tanlac I never have a pain of any kind and have gone back to doing all my house work," said Mrs. M. E. Winter, a prac tical nurse, of 5913 Fifty-seventh ave nue, southeast, Portland, Or., a few days ago. "For the past five years I have suf fered something awful with rheuma tism in my limbs and arms,"" con tinued Mrs. winter, "and they ached so badly I could scarcely straighten them out. My knees were so swollen and stiff that I could hardly get up and down the steps, and the muscles In my arras and limbs were drawn up like they were tied in knots, and many a time I would have to get up during the night and rub liniment or put hot applications on my limbs before I could ease the pain. My kidneys gave me a rot of trouble, and I had such an awful pain across the small of my back that at times I could -hardly keep from screaming. I was Dadiy constipated, and was always taking laxatives, and often I would have terrible dizzy spells. My liver was always sluggish, and I was troubled with indigestion so bad that my appetite left me, and at night I was never able to rest well because of the pains. "I had tried all kinds of medicines, but could get only temporary relief, and one day a man living here at my home was telling the clerk in the Owl drug store here in town about my condition wnen another customer stepped up and said: 'Tanlac is what you want!' So he brought me a bot tle. And the way I improved was a surprise to me, and I continued to take Tanlac until now all my five years of troubles have left me en tirely. I haven't a trace of rheuma tism, and can sleep the whole night through as sound as a child. My liver and kidneys are in fine condition, and the pain across the small of my back has - disappeared completely, and I can eat anything I want without any bad effects at all. My constipated condition has been relieved and 1 never have to take a laxative, and the dizzy spells are a thing of the past. Tanlac is the best medicine I have ever seen, for it has given me per manent relief after everything I had tried had failed." Tanlac is sold in Portland by the Owl drug store.
