AUSTRALIA WILL
MAKE WEAPONS
Government Money for Small
Arms Factory and Cor
dite Plant.
WAR SPIRIT IS AROUSED
Great Commonwealth Feels That It
Has Delayed Preparations for
Self-Defense Entirely
Too Long.
SYDNEY, N. S. W.. Aug. 29. .Spe
cial.) Australia has decided to manu
facture her own rifles and ammunition.
In the closing days of last session the
Federal House of Representatives voted
a sum for the establishment of cordite
and small arms factories. The former
Is to be located on the Saltwater River,
near Melbourne, where an area of 250
acres has been selected. It is estimated
that the maximum capacity of the
works will be about 150 tons of cordite
ner annum, although the actual out
put is likely to be very much less. The
traditional policy of employing Aus
tralians will be followed as tar as pos
sible, but the Minister of Defense has
announced his intention of importing a
few skilled men lor the more tecnnicat
operations.
The small arms ' factory is to be es
tabllshed in Lithgow, near the works
where Australian Iron Is being pro
duced. The machinery is to bo of the
most modern type, and will be capable
of producing 45.000 rifles a year. It is
hoped that both factories will bo In
operation about 18 months hence. In
various quarters the opinion is ex
pressed that the establishment of these
works has . been delayed quite long
enough. It has been felt that the en
tire dependence of the Commonwealth
upon external sources' for the means of
defense was undesirable, if not danger
ous. The Sydney Mall thus sums up
the situation:
"When we have these factories the
patriotic Australian will breathe a lit
tle easier. While we are dependent
upon the outside world for guns and
ammunition, our position Is serious be
yond all exaggeration. Even the half
barbarous Ameer of Afghanistan has
his small and big gun factories, with
the supplementary machinery for turn
ing out the requisite ammunition for
both, and the spectacle of a community
so far advanced in civilization as the
Commonwealth, so self-assertive in its
policy toward powerful alien races, and
so isolated from auxiliary nations,
without the appliances to make even
the small arms and cartridges for its
slender forces, was one of almost mani
acal folly.
"That, with such tremendous prepara
tions for war apparent almost every
where else, this commonwealth should
have spent seven years wrangling over
domestic problems and hoity-toity poll
tics, over 'hatteTs' and 'potters,' Instead
of providing for Itself the primary es
sentials of self-defense. Illustrates in a
remarkable way the gambling spirit of
the Australian people, which thus lightly
staked what was nothing lees than na
tional existence against the chances of
war."
Excursion to Klamath Falls.
Nearly 100 business men left the city
at 1:80 this morning on the Southern
Pacific train for Klamath Falls. A spe
cial excursion was run by the company
to give people of this city who- are In
terested a chance to see what
Klamath country offers to Investors. A
similar excursion was run a few weeks
ago that was very successful. Interest
in the Klamath country Is growing
among Portland people, as Is evidenced
by the two excursions.
BRITISH CABINET MEMBER TO WED DAUGHTER OP

MISS CLEMENTINE HOZIER.
LONDON, Sept. 6. (Special.) The engagement of Winston Churchill,
president of the Board of Trade In the British Cabinet, to Miss
Clementine Hoxier, has caused tremendous interest among the mem
bers and employes at Lloyd's, where the bride-elect's father, the late
Colonel Sir Henry Hozler, was for many years secretary, and was im
mensely popular.
Taking the members of Lloyd's as a whole, the"y are much opposed
to the political views of Mr. Churchill, and some have gone so far In
very recent times as to attribute all the depression In the Stock Ex
change and in the city generally to the government, of which Mr.
Churchill Is the particular ornament.
But members and employes alike have agreed to forget all about
politics and only to remember their late and much-beloved chief. Sir
Henry Hosier, and they are now subscribing to make one of the hand
somest gifts ever offered by a business body to Mr. Churchill's bride.
The gift will probably be a complete service of silver.

BUFFALO BILL TO EXHIBIT

Historical Display Contains Pictur
esque Fteatures Illustrative
of Plains.
After touring Great Britain and Con
tinental Europe for the past four years,
Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress
of Rough Riders of the World Is home
again. Arrangements have been perfected
for the exhibition to appear in this city.
September 25 and 26, at Twenty-fifth and
Raleigh streets. Exactly aa given in
Madison-Square Garden, New York City,
when the show opened its tour this
Spring, the performance will be presented
without curtailment or changes of any
sort.
Buffalo Bill has been abroad so long
that his home-coming affords what is
practically a novelty in arenlc entertain
ment. During his absence the little folks
have grown Into youths and young ladles
and those of us who saw the exhibition
years ago will take equal interest in
seeing It all over again. There will be
real novelty provided In many features
of the programme and for the home
coming tour of this foremost among
arenlc institutions, two spectacular fea
tures have been prepared as special at
tractions. Pleases Europe's Rulers.
During the four separate tours of
Europe which Buffalo Bill has made, he
has presented his historical entertain-

majority or instances
speaking person was a rarity. But In all
his travels he has depicted the conquest
and eventual civilization of the Indian,
and has presented scenes of historic
events with unfailing ndellty and with
success which has astounded the skep
tical. He has done more than any other
American to open the book of our early
history before the eyes of Europeans and
they have looked with admiring eyes upon
the wonders there unfolded.
ixrkii w . ..hihlHnn will fv nrftrtlcallv
new this season, the display will, of
course, conform to the general style of
.entertainment which Colonel William F.
Cody (Buffalo Bill) has always prestmtu,
historical In its fundamental principle,
original in its conception and maintain
ance, unique as an arenlc entertainment,
and in a class all by itself among out-of-door
amusements. There will be a
number of special features In the depart
ment of rough-riding and general eques-
tmicvo BnH therA will be two spe
cial exhibits which have been exclusively
designed and perfected for the present
tour.
The topping features of the programme
will be the pantomimic melodrama "The
Great Train Hold-Up," and "The Bandit
Hunters of the Union Pacific,", together
with "The Battle of Summit Springs."
These separate and distinct features will
depict two Important eras In Western
development the conquering and subjec
tion of the barbaric red man and the
fast-disappearing hoard of bandits who
followed the trail of the coloniser and
preyed upon the railroad and express
companies in their advance across the
plains. -
The Congress of Rough Riders of the
World will constitute an important fao

display of equestrian expertness and an
exhibition of nerve, skill and manly
daring which is sure to excite enthusiastic
aixniration. Horsemen of all nations will

American-bred cowboys will be not the
least factor in the stirring picture of
primitive history.
Defeat Schoolhouse by One Vote.
At the meeting of the taxpayers of
HarmnAv School District. Clackamas
County, near Milwaukle. W. H. Counsel
presiding, the 7-mill tax with which to
erect a four-room schoolhouse was de
feated by one vote. It was a lively meet
ing. One speaker, a woman, declared
that the present building is In such bad
condition her daughter was compelled to
wear overshoes In the schoolhouse In
order to keep her feet dry- It was said
that the present one, which contains
two rooms, has stood more than 35 years
and Is no longer suitable for school pur
poses. Opposition to the tax rallied Its
full force, and It Is said that the sup
porters were caught napping. At the
annual meeting the directors were In
structed to erect the building, but the
meeting failed to vote the tax at the
time. Chairman Counsel announced that
a special meeting of the directors will be
held next week, when It Is expected that
another meeting of the taxpayers will
be called for to again vote on the build
ing tax. 1

GROWS HAIR
and we can
PROVE IT!
A lady from Minnesota writes:
"As a resnlt of using Dunderlne, my hair
ts dote to five feet In length,"
Beautiful Hair at Small Cost
HAIR troubles. like many other disesses, have
been wrongly diagnosed and altogether mis
understood. The hair itself is not the thins to
be treated, for the reason that it is simplpa product
of the acalp and wholly dependent upon its action.
The scalp Is the very soil in which the hair is pro
duced, nurtured and grown, and it alone should
receive the attention i results are to be expected.
It would do no earthly good to treat the stem of a
plant with a view of making it grow and become
more beautiful the soil in which the plant grows
must be attended to. Therefore, the acalp in which
tha hair grows must receive the attention if you are
to expect it to grow and become more beautiful.
Loss of hair is caused by the scalp drying op,
or losing its supply of moisture or nutriment; when
baldness occurs the scalp has simply lost all its
nourishment, leaving nothing for the hair to feed
upon ( a plant or evefn a tree would die under almllar
conditions.)
The natural thing to do in either case. Is to feed
and replenish the soil -or scalp as the case may be,
and your crop will grow and multiply as nature
intended It should.
Knowlton's Danderine has a moat wonder
ful effect upon the hair glands and tiaauaa of the
acalp. it is the only remedy for the hair ever
discovered that la similar to the natural hair
fooda or liquida of the scalp.
It penetrates the pores quickly and the hair
soon shows the effects of its wonderfully exhilar
ating and life-producing qualities.
One 25-cent bottle is enough to convince you of
its great worth as a hair growing and hair beauti
fying remedy try it and aee for yourself.
