In an effort to itcm the Jefferson atreet car track ahead of a west bound car at Sixth street, just before noon yesterday. .Visa Margaret Dana ber speeded up the handsome automo bile owned by tier mother, but It was too late to clear the on-comin- car and a collision resulted. The two vehicles crashed toR-ether with terrific force, tearing the rront steps from the trolley-car on the north side. and wrecking the automobile. Fortunately, none of the passenKers were Injured. It seemed to be a case of mistaken judgment on the part of Miss Margaret Ianaher. who was driving; the auto mobile. In which were her sister, a friend. Miss N. Kinney, and the chauf feur. George I'pton. Miss Margaret evidently miscalculated on the time it would require to cross ahead of the trolley-car. She believed she could avoid an accident by speeding; to have attempted to stop her car would have meant at least a side-on collision, and she chose to take a chance to cross by putting on pressure. The automobile was going south, the party being out for a pleasure ride about the rilv. AH reside at the Hotel Portland, the Misses Oanaher being the daughters of C. T. Oana her. formerly of Chicago. Miss Kinney Is aleo a guest of the Portland. The machine, which was badly damaged, was owned by Mrs. Panaher. The collision threw the streetcar off the track, and shoving the automobile along. it crashed into a tree and telephone pole. Iavld Campbell, chief of the Kire Department, was riding on the front seat of the streetcar and was in a position to witness the accident. When the collision occurred, be jumped from the car and assisted the young women from the automobile. It la regarded as remarkable that none was injured. They left the scene quickly, walking back to their hotel. The streetcar was In charge of Conductor T. M. Gerr and Motorman I S. Nashy. AUTO CRASHES INTO STREETCAR BILLIARDS LOSING OUT Table Fewer In France by 16.000 "Than Dozen Years. Ago. PARI.". Oct. SI. Special. It ap pears that the love for the noble game of billiards la dying out In France. In 1SS4 there were S5.0nl billiard tables here which paid their tax. In 191 there were only 89.oo. And when the official figures were compiled for last year they showed only 79.000. or IS. 000 bil liard tables fewer than there were 1.1 years before. The explanation given br the officials Is a curious one. Cards, they say. have to a great extent re placed billiards In France, and the bi cycle and the taxirab have done the billiard table even more harm. It Is a little difficult to see the connection, but the officials are certain that the modern Frenchman prefers to take exercise out of doors instead of around tha green cloth. DO YOU WANT A PIANO?

T IS NEGRO SOCIALIST BREAKS !Kl"LIi OF DLSPITAM. Remark ReriectitiK on Debs Is Re sented in Street Meeting and Small Riot Develops. H. W. Beatty. a citizen of Portland, who lives at 1S Park street, was set upon and beaten with a blackjack about ft o'clock last night among a crowd of men who were holding a street meet ing on Fourth stret between Washing ton and Alder, and is now confined to his home in a serious condition with a fractured skull. Beattys assailant was a negro, who led a crowd of a'doxen or more against him because of a political argument. A public speaker was extolling the So cialistic candidate for the Presidency, Eugene V. Debs, when Beatty inter rupted the speech by saying that Deba was a fraud and had never done an honest day's work In his life. This sally was the signal for an onslaught on Beatty by the mob, with the black man in the lead. When he got within striking distance of Beatty he drew a weapon from his pocket and fctruck him over the head. felling him to the pavement. Beatty emitted a scream of pain and some of the members of the crowd hurried to the police station to report the affair. Cartain Moore dispatched Patrolman Burke and Petectlve Ilawley at double quick, '"but the meeting had dispersed, so no arrests were mad". Batty was assisted to the police sta tion, where he was examined by City Physician Ziegler. who had the man removed to a hospital, where his head was dressed and he was then sent home. A description of the negro and his comrades was given the police and detectives sent out to apprehend them. SHIPS FINNS TO NEVADA Labor Apcnt Takes Miners to Re lieve Shortage at Ely. OODEX, L'tah, Oct. SI. Two carloads of Finns, miners from the Lake Supe rior region. In charge of a boss on their way to Ely, Nev., are looked upon as the advance guard of a great army of iron miners to be placed at work In the mines of the Nevada Copper com pany. They are under contract to work for 2.B0 and board, a scale much be low the prevailing wages In Ely, yet George C. Butler, who is directing the party, anticipates no demonstration on the part of tha union miners when the Finns reach their destination. Mr. But ler explains they a.re not strikebreak ers, but are imported to meet a labor shortage. William Walters Takes Second in Race In Which More Than 20 Members Participate. .W. M. Davis, riding J. H. Bennett, won the first closed paper chase of the Hunt Club's cross-country season yesterday afternoon. The paper was laid over a course fully six miles long and over a country that gave the 20 odd riders a splendid ride. The trail was admirably well chosen by Mrs. F. G. Buffum and Miss Anne Shogren. The hares had placed their jumps nicely." one of the best being a long jump that not only tested the nerve of the riders, but the horses as well. The start w.is made just beyond the Irvington Tennis Club courts and the finish was a. three-quarter mile stretch on the Sandy road. Over the route, Mrs. Buffum and Miss Shogren placed a num ber of tantalizing blind, and several of them were so placed as to mystify the riders. This, together with Just enough brush work, made the ride a very pleas ant one. In the absence of E. T. Chase, the master of hounds, James Nicol offi ciated. He had the big field of riders well bunched when he signaled that the finish was near. The trail led out of the brush into the flandy road, but as an extra hazzard. the riders had to avoid a lot o. wire which linemen were stringing. Mr. Nicol warned the riders of this. When the whistle was blown. Mrs. Dr. W. L. Wood. on Snap. Mr. Davis and several other riders we're well btinched. Mr. Davis horse had the foot of the party that was close to him and he finished first with ease. Close up was William Walters, on Frank, who, in spite of the fact that the big Jumper bled, passed Mrs. Wood. Bey Dare, who was ridden through his first paper chase by Will G. MacRae, finished fourth and would have been closer up had he been within striking distance at the red paper. Those who took part in the ride were Mr. and Mrs. Harry Skuse. Miss Loewen berg. Mr. Gruttor. Miss Sally J. lyeadbet tcr. Mrs. J. E. Gantenbein. Miss Kather ine E. Cronin, J. Cronin. Mrs. M. E. Wortman. Miss Monroe. Mips Mabel Law rence. Ben Neustadter. E. R. Eldredge. Dr. W. A.

He left last night for an extended trip in the Orient. ally ' the Judge decided to test the question by planting an orchard. In this work Mr. Endersby assisted, and It was one of the earliest orchards in that part of the then Territory of Oregon. He also remembers that in the upper part of ' the rude casings of the front door of the Tolman cabin there were the marks of two bullets that were fired at the occupants of the cabin by Indians who were prowl ing In the vinclnity during the Rogue niver Indian war of 1855-56. As Mr. Endersby lived in the vicinity of Salem. Henry County, Iowa, as early as 1846. he remembers the start ing out of Henderson Luelling with the "traveling nursery," bound for Oregon, in April, 1847. which arrived at Miilwaukie in November of that year, and was the starting point of the fruit Industry of the Pacific Coast. This city has carried forward in the past few months improvements in the way of permanent streets, estimated at J350,on, and with Improvements ordered and the proposed filling of the tideflat, at least $1,000,000 will be put into permanent public Improvements before the close of the next fiscal year. -Mayor France, early In the year, put a ban on planked streets in which the city had sunk about $300,000.

CORE sfflEIMfflSE This is just a short talk on Rheumatism, pointing out its causes and some of the reasons why so many fail to find a cure for this painful, and often far-reaching trouble. . No other disease is mors persistent and discouraging than Rheu matism. Those persons in whose blood this painful ailment has taken root, often grow disheartened, and sometimes conclude there is no permanent cure. Patiently they have blistered and rubbed their aching joints and muscles with liniments, oils, etc., and faithfully taken pot ash and other miner al salts, only to find when the treatment is left off the disease returns, and usually with increased se verity. Kheumahsm is due to an excess of uric acid, an irritat- . a . troubled wita nwuminsm in any iorm since, i rcei so in- i Sj, ................ j accumulation, which gets into the circula tion because of weak kidneys, constipa tion, indigestion, and other physical irregularities which are usually regarded as of no importance. Nothing applied ex ternally can ever reach this trouble, while potash and like mineral medi cines really add to the acidity of the blood, and this vital fluid, therefore, con tinually grows more acrid, sour and weaker. Rheu m a tis m can never be cured until the blood is purified and built up. S. S. thoroughly cleanses and reno vates the circulation by neutralizing the , adds and expelling the foreign matter from the system. It strengthens and invigorates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour stream, constantly depositing acrid and corrosive matter in the muscles, joints and bones, the entire body is nourished by rich, healthful blood, which completely and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. contains no potash, alkali, or any other harmful mineral, but is made entirely of blood-purifying and healing roots, herbs and barks which enrich and freshen the circulation while cur ing Rheumatism.

Gentlemen : It ii with pleasure I write to tell you of the - wonderful core I experienced from the use of S. S. 8. For over two years I suffered excruciating pains in the shoulders, caused by Muscular Rheumatism. I kept usiBt lini ments all the time, but the pains continued to increase. Finally 1 decided to try S. 6. S. , and aftei using several bottles had no more pain. To make sure, however, I continued to use your medicine so that my blood would be entirely purified. Although this was twelve years ago, I have never been troubled with rheumatism in any form since. I feel so in debted to S. S. S. that nothing I can any would be too high praise for it. With best wishes for the success of 8. S. 8. Tours truly, 30 Liberty St. C. B. WEST. COULD HOT WALK FOR MONTHS. Victoria, Texas. In 1900 I had a severe attack of Rheumatism and my entire system was out of order. For months I was not able to walk. I tried other remedies without benefit and then commenced to takes. 8. 8. I took it for awhile and saw that it was benefitting me and continued to use it until I was entirely cured of the Rheumatism. I was confined to an invalid chair for eight months at one time, but I have been absolutely free from pain since S. 8. 8. cured me. B. H. BORING. ' REPEATED FAILURB8, THEN RBLD2F. Mr. Wm. L. Hill, of Winston, N. C. , at one time traveling salesman, and well known in North and South Carolina and Virginia, says: ' 'Two years ago my blood was in a wretched condition, and in addition to other bodily ailments I suffered severely from Rheumatism. After repeated failures to secure relief from the use of other remedies I begun S. 8. 8., and it acted like a charm. The rheumatic pains left and my gen eral health was built up as well. I have the highest opinion of S. 8. 6. , for It is the only medicint that did me any good. ' ' RHEUMATISM ALL GONE. Mrs. Ida M. Palmer, of 198 Fulton St., Brooklyn, W. T., writes as follows : I wish you to know what great benefit t have received from the us of 8. 8. 8. I have been afflicted with Rheumatism for twenty years, sometimes being entirely laid up by it and always lame in some part of my body. It grew worse until it was misery to attempt to walk at all; my right knee was nearly twice its natural size and was drawn up considerably shorter than the other one. A friend advised me to take S. S. S. which I commenced. X bad tried so many things that I must say that I had very little faith that it would do mo any good but I was willing to try anything that promised relief. Before I had been using it long I was greatly relieved, and continuing the medicine I soon found that I was entirely cured. The lameness and soreness all left, I can straighten, move or bend my leg as well as any one and I have never known what Rheumatism was since. I am 65 years old and feel deeply grateful to S. 8. 8. "
