The thin to do in to forget the Incident and net another Blrl. This vm the effect of a decision made yesterdar by Presiding Judge McOInn. of the State Circuit Court. The ruling waa made In passing upon the rase of Anton Rlblrh. who not only lot Ma temper when another atole hla girl, but whipped out a revolver and talked of violence. It wii given out largely In the form of advice to Anton, who la a rery young Austrian and knowa little of the ways and wllea of womankind. Calm Philosophy Fnjolncd. "I spenda eight bunder dollar." wallrd Anton. "She coma to rnarry me then change her mind an" glv me der allrv" Klblch did Indeed have cause for grievance. Even the court admitted that. The point J ml re McOInn made waa that the forsaken swain should bare arrrpted Ms lot In brttrr part. Anton fell madly In love with a girl In Austria whose photograph he had seen. The girl's sister, with whom Anton boarded, displayed the picture and. as they say at the vaudeville shows. It waa some sir!; special empha sis on the some. , "She will come and marry you If yon aend her the railroad fare." the sister told Anton. So he began hoarding Ma earning. Working as a laborer he earned 12.50 a day and never a cent did be spend rept for food and lodging, lie confessed even to doing? his own washing that the fund might grow the more rapidly. By way of Inspiration, be had the picture of Terela Aovanln. which was the euphonlua name of bis Intended wife. Photograph Is False. There was no way. of course, for Anton to know that the picture he bad came with baking powder coupons, lie thought he was coins; to ret the orig inal which was enough to set most anyone to savins;. In due course of time h (tot together the fabulous sum of SITS, which he sent to Austria to bur a ticket. With that the girl reached New York, then sent for more money, lie sent her IJOO mora and she came direct to Portland. Anton experienced a shock when be met the girl at the depot, She looked aa much like tha picture be had nursed o tenderly aa the favorite portrait of a princes looks like the original. He Md bla disappointment, though, for she waa rather a romrly miss, even though very shabby and dirt -begrimed through long travel. Having 1 'a beart set on marriage he derided to go through with the bargain. Nest day he broached the subject of suitable attire, for she appeared In tha same dirty, shabby traveling dress. She coifeised to having no other clothes. Cash Borrowed for Troaserau. Anton bad just about enough left by this time to pay the license fee and tha preacher. Rut. having a reputation for honestv. he waa able to borrow $100 or so. W ith this he bought hla prospect ive wife some dresses, a hat and a ring. That night she went out walking with another Austrian. Anton waa en. raged. lie demanded an explanation. S"ie exhibited some apparel and Jewelry th other bought her. The cost waa l3. tio Anton straightway borrowed ti more and Insisted that hla rival take the money bark. The date of tha wedding was fixed. Put when Anton went the next night to call on bla fiancee she was out again with still another fellow. And tha sec ond rival was a dashing young Aua trlan who siraplr took the girl by storm. When Anton rushed up to them and demanded an explanation the girl replied, with naive Impudence: "This la a free country and I am not bound to marry you. I shall marry just who I please and It may not be you. Anton Becomes Violent. Then It v-a that Anton became vlo lnl and among other things drew a large revolver. He was overpowered before he could use It and the police were sent for. Anton has beea In jail some time. Having pleaded guilty, ha was taken before Judge McGinn for aentmce. Too are not the first man to get left and possibly will not be the last. Judge McOInn told him. "You should have acted differently. When a man makes love to a woman and ahe turns him down he should accept the verdict In good part. There la no appeal. My advice to you la to let this girl alone after this. You may be fortunate, for all you know. "Get another girl and If you have lost your money, let it go.

SMALL SURPLUS IS LEFT Budget as Orlgtnally Prepared by Mayor Simon Is Material Aid In 'Work Streets Will Not Be So Well Swept. From tha estimates Died yesterday by the various city departments which are supported by the general fund, the ways and means committee of the Council ' yesterday cut out $148. 309. allowing a total of I8S3.74.10 for the aupport of the departmenta for the year. The estimated revenues for the general fund amount 10 mr5.10a.41, Including: 1250.000 that the Council hopes to get by means of a proposed ordinance to hasten the payment to the city of the B per cent duea from street Improvement contracts. After tha appropriations are deducted from the expected revenues of the fund, there la remaining; for such uses as may develop later a surplus of $14. 439.17. The deductions Included $27, J20, which waa duplicated.- It took the committee all day yes terday to work out the appropriations and make them conform with the ex pected revenues of the general fund, for never before In the history of the city have the expected expenses for the de partmenta Involved been so much In excess of the expected revenues of the fund. It wss necessary to confer with the various heads of departments to as certain how threatened deficits could be avoided. Pcficlt First Threatened. If the estimates had been approved as flled. the payments to be made out of the freneral fund would have been $123.870. 31 more than the expected rev enue, even after the additional $2i0.000 had been provided by the street assess ments. For a long- time the Council has looked forward with some dread to fixing these appropriations, owing to lack of revenue, but the work of the committee waa materially lessened by the budget? originally prepared by Mayor Simon, who had planned how various departments could be operated with re. duced expenditures. The committee also went through estimates for the departments support, ed by tax levy, but made but few changes In the appropriations agreed upon at the time the tax levy was authorized. A delegation of policemen called upon the committee and asked that the sal aries of the men who are now to begin on their second year of service be In creased from $?0 a month to $100 a month. They explained that when they took the civil service examination the salary was fixed at $100 a month, but was reduced later, and they believed that they should receive the amount they had been led to expect. The committee was loth to do this without a request from the execu tive board, hut Anally granted the re quest. Twenty-five patrolmen will be affected by this Increase. To make tha general fund meet tha various requirements upon It, It will be necessary for the streets of the city to go without as much sweeping as usual, but by next year It Is expected that a charter amendment will be adopted au thorizing a separate tax levy for the support of the street sprinkling and cleaning department.

LINE TO BE OPEN TODAY Oregon-Washington Road Cuts Off Six Miles and Will Save Half Hour In Running Time for Distance, It Is Figured. Beginning this morning all trains over the Oregon-Washington Railroad & Navigation Company's line between Portland and Puget Sound will oper ate through the newly-completed tun nel under the Peninsula between the Willamette and the Columbia rivers, reducing tho running time for pas senger service - to Northern points at least 20 minutes and cutting oil nearly six miles of difficult trackage. The bore is 5400 feet long and was constructed at a cost of approximately $600,000. The contract was awarded to Robert Wakefield and the Paclflo Bridge Company, both local concerns. In July, 1909. Work was started soon after that time. The construction de tails were completed In a compara tively short time and the result Is one of the best and most modern engineer ing feats on the Coast, At the north end of the tunnel con nection Is made with the new line be tween St. Johns and Troutdale. At the south end the tunnel tracks will connect with the present line a short distance from the Steel bridge. Staff System to Bo Used." Trains will be operated through it by means of the staff system, -which is the most practical modern method for the prevention of accidents consistent with hurried transportation. Another desirable feature resulting from this work is the elimination of grades. The grade on the old line, up Sullivan's Gulch, is one per cent. On the tunnel line it is only five-tenths per cent. Much curvature also will be avoided. The maximum on the tunnel line is three degrees. On. the old line It is eight degrees. A total of 900 de grees in curvature has been saved. When Julius Kruttschnltt. director of maintenance and operation of the Harriman system, was In Portland a month ago. he made a personal Inspec tion of this project ana pronounced it one of the finest long tunnels on the entire system. Other railway officials who have seen it declare that it is a remarkable and valuable piece of con struction work. The bore is ample to accommodate all the trains that operate between Port land and the Sound, and It Is figured that as soon as the connection with the main line at Troutdale Is made, the East and West freight service can be handled through it as well. Eventually all the Eastern and Northern traffic may be handled that way. , Work Practically Done. The Work has been, practicaly com pleted for the past month. Construc tion trains have traveled through the tunnel and thorough tests aa to Its REACHING THE HIGH NOTES In the Wiley B. Allen Co.

It Is expected that when once the trains are started over this course the service can bo continued uninter rupted. While this will give the Harriman system the shortest and quickest route between Portland and the Sound, a valuable feature of tne w rk lies In the elimination of difficult and danger ous pieces of work in running trains through St. Johns, where the constantly increasing population has made the operation of surface trains annoying, because the speed necessarily is limi ted. Greater speed will be possible as a result of the change. As soon as the operation of trains through the bore Is figured on a cer tain basis, the schedules will be changed to conform. While it Is be lieved, that the running time to and from the Sound cities will be reduced fully 20 minutes. It Is figured that half an hour can be cut off after the serv Ive Is fully Inaugurated. The work was financed entirely by the Harriman system and the tunnel will be used by the trains of that road alone. After passing through the bore the trains will run over the Columbia jllver bridge in common with those of the Northern Pacific and Grat North ern roads. $153 Paid for Blow. PENDLETON. Or., Jan. 14.
