A nominating" committee was appointed, consisting- of Professor Sweetser, Professor -fame's Withycombo, of Oregron Agricultural Col 1 ogre, and Air. Gorman. Tin is com -mittee later reported the nominees elected. Reports of officers were read, winch showed that there had been an average attendance of 40 at the meet ings held during- the year, and that the work of the society ts progressmg satisfactorily. It was su Interest In aroused by holding all grgested that still greater the academy mifcht bf cbuuging the custom- of sessions in Portland.

Hi tellings Acts for Accused. "Wlien the members of the gang were arraigned in the Municipal Court yes terday morning Attorney Hitchtngs ap peared as counsel for Anderson and JtanKlns, the men who had large, blue Diirreled revolvers in their possession V'hen taken into custody by the po lice. He demanded that their nail be i.xed at 250 each? instead of 9500, as- originally sot by Judge Cameron, but his demand was unheeded, and his clients went to the County Jail. While the police declare that they Tielleve Rankins, Anderson and Kelley, supposed leaders of the KAng, perpe trated th Sellwood 'Postoffice robbery and tried to Rill Fatroinmn isorenson they admit that since Attorney Hitch- lugs came Into the case, they have heen outwitted and that, in all proba bility., rocKpile sentences will be all they can see-ire for the suspects. Attorney Hitchinge Is on very intl- ttiflte relations with the heads of the police department. and frequently spends much time at headquarters. He often holds confidential chats with Captains Bruin and Slover and with members of the plaln-clotheB staff, and eppoally with Acting Detective Kay. HitcIHngs is said to "tip off informa tion to the police occasionally. In re turn for which he Is accorded every l-rlvilege the officers can grant. In view of his latest coup, however, it: is predicted by some that Mitcbings will not be so royally received when he again saunters Into the station. Yesterday morning the police took up the cases of the members of t In gang, and endeavored all day to ne cure some evidence that would incrim 1nato them. Each on was Interviewed, hut not one would talK. all . having been warned by Hltchings to remain qulet. ,Late yesterday afternoon Patrolman X-ytle found five loaded cartridges in a box at P"irst and Columbia streets, beside the patrol-call, from where the members of the gang were sent to the City .Tail Friday night. These fit the revolvers carried by Anderson and Hanklntf. and were dumped into the box in the dark, when Anderson threw his revolver into the box after being arrested. Hevolvrrs May Be Traced.

It is not given away in the form of "trial bottles" to be experimented with, but is sold at a fair price by all dealers in medicines. . Delicate.weak, nervous women should especially shun 'the use of alcoholic medicines which, from their stimulat ing and exhilerating effects may seem, for a time, to do good, but which from the inevitable effects of the alcohol in shrinking up the red corpuscles of the blood are sure to do great and lasting harm in the long run. Besides they beget a craving for stimulants which is most deplorable. . Only invigorating and nerve strength ening effects can follow the use of this famous medicine for women. It can not possibly do harm in any state or condition of the system. It has been carefully adapted to woman's needs by an experienced physician a specialist in their diseases. It makes weak wom en strong and sick women well. If a woman has bearing down, or dragging pains, low down vn the abdo men, or pelvis, backache, frequent headaches, dizzy or fainting spells, is nervous and easily startled, has gnaw ing feeling in Btomach, sees imaginary floating specks, or spots before her eyes, has melancholia, or "blues," or a weakening disagreeable drain from pel- vic organs, Bhe can make no mistake by resorting to the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It will invigor ate and tone up the whole system aud especially the pelvic organs. Ir. Pierce's Favorite Perscription is a scientific medicine, carefully devised by an experienced and skillful physi cian, and adapted to woman's delicate system. It is made of native American medici"?J roots and is perfectly harm lees in its effects in any condition of the female system. As a powerful invigorating tonicFa- vorite Prescription" imparts strength to the whole system and to the organs distinctly feminine in particular. For over-worked, "worn-out," run-down," debilitated teachers, milliners, dress makers, seamstresses, "shop - girls," house-keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women generally, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic. As a soothing and strengthening ner vine "Favorite Prescription" is un- equaled and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous excitability, ir ritability, nervous exhaustion, nervous prostration, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, St.Vitus's dance, and other distressing, nervous symptoms commonly attendant upon functional and organic cisease of . the uterus. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and des- pondency. No woman suffering from any of the above symptoms can afford to accept any secret nostrum or medicine of un known composition, as a substitute for a medicine like Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which is op known COM POSITION and has a record of over forty years of cures and sells more largely to-day than, ever before. Its makers withhold no secrets from their patients, believing open publicity to, be the very best guaranty of merit. Dr. Pierce invites all suffering women to consult him by letter free of charge. All letters of consultation are held as strictly private and sacredly confiden tial and all answers are returned in plain, sealed envelopes. Address: Dr. R. V.

Tlie St. Johns Charter Commission has finished Us work and has com missioned Gcnrire J. Perkins, tho sec retary, to prepare the new charter for typewriting. This will take some time, and henee the document will not be ready for submission to the Council at its' meeting next Tuesday niprht. A. provision has been inserted in the charter setting forth that it must he submitted to a vote of the people of t. Johns at the city election to be held on the first Monday In A.prll. .X t that time the voters will vote either "yes" or "no," and It It has a majority it becomes the basic law of the city. In view of the fact that the LegriHla t tire has nothing whatever to do with tlie adoption or rejection or charters, City Attorney Greene decided that this provision must be inserted, declaring: how It 9 hall be adopted and when It shall become a law of the city. The charter will be submitted first to the Council, which authorized the commission, and it may authorize the catling" of a mass meeting: of citizens to pass on It. However, a mass meeting will not be able to examine very much of trie new charter, owing- to its lenjrth, and a committee may he appointed to go over it. The work is practically a revision of the present charter, and changes have not been radical. On the question of annexation the Commission decided that the statute governing such matters should have to be followed In the movement to annex the whole of the Peninsula north of the Portland boundary line. That is, there must be both a vote in the territory to he annexed and inBide the city. The boundary lines of the territory to be J annexed have not yet been decided on. f but practically they will embrace all tho territory on the Peninsula north- wpst of Northern Hill, or the Portland boundary line. r MED C NE Receives Letter From President.
