Robert H. Hughes, acting editor and

Po the action of the church In InJora

Der hunters from California will be

Into California. The law In this regard
was recently construed by Attorney-
General Crawford, and every precaution
will be taken by ollleers of the Fish
and Game Commission to see that It Is
enforced. Attorney-General Crawford's
decision Is that the Commission has no
authority to lsaue permits to take deer,
killed In this state across the line Into
California. The only condition under
which same can be taken out of the
state Is for propagation or exhibition.

NEW TEST ORDERED
Much-Condemned Crematory
to Have Another Chance.
DR. WHEELER IN CHARGE
Contractors Blame Superintendent
Xapler for Failure of Plant and
Rushlight Appointee Is Put
In ' His Place.
Placing Dr. C- H. Wheeler In supreme
command, the City Board of Health
yesterday morning ordered a new two
months' test of the garbage crematory,
which was constructed by the Public
Works Engineering Company and which
has not as yet been accepted. Harry
N Napier, superintendent of the old
plant, was deposed and will have noth
ing to say in the operations of the new
plant during the tests, but will work
under direction of Dr. Wheeler, who la
health officer. '
Superintendent Napier Is blamed by
the contractors for much of the trou"
ble that developed, resulting in the
non-acceptance of the plant, and they
would not consent to his acting in the
rapacity of superintendent in the new
tests. He was in charge during a six
months' test, made under the Simon
regime, and constantly reported against
the plant. He wag therefore eliminat
ed from the second test, that the com
pany could not charge that he was In
terfering. , ,
David E. Otis, recommended by May
o'r Rushlight, was employed to have
actual charge of the plant during the
tests, under direction of Dr. Wheeler.
He will go to work when the City Coun
cil makes the necessary appropriation
to pay his salary, which, the Mayor

He Is said to understand the boiler and
furnace work, and members of the
Board believe he will be a valuable
man for the place.
The tests to be made are as to burn
ing capacity and cost of incineration.
One of the units Is contracted to burn
100 tons of garbage every 24 hours, and
the other unit to burn 50 tons. A
graduated scale .of cost of Incineration
Is provided, .and It Is to ascertain
whether the new plant will do the
work required at the dates specified
that the tests are to be conducted.
The action taken yesterday morning
by the Board is the course outlined
three weeks ago by Councilman Monks,
of the First Ward, In which the crema
tory plans are' located. He set up
strenuous objection to the continued
operation of the old plant, which can
not consume all the garbage and refuse
brought to It, as It has a capacity of
but 26 tons dally, although It Is said
now to be burning more than double
that amount.
GARIBALDI BEACH POPULAR
New Beach Is Attracting Hundreds
of Vacationists.
Fishing is one of the pastimes at
Garibaldi Beach, which Is gaining in
popularity this year, say a number of
vacationists who have Just returned
from that district. In a number of
fresh - water lakes, and even In the
ocean, good catches have been made
recently. Among the successful fish
ermen was C. H. Vosper, of Portland,
who landed six salmon trout weighing
a pound and a quarter each. It Is esti
mated there are B00 people camping
along the seashore of the beach.
Walking across the six miles of sand
has also become a popular sport, a
number of Portland people having
started the fad about a week ago. Auto
parties have gone over also and report
the sand to be hard and smooth.
Improvements are rapidly being made
by the owners of beach property, who
formed an association two weeks ago.
Among these Improvements ls the es
tablishment of a wayhouse at Elmore
Park for the care of horses and autos.
Good hotel accommodations are pro
vided at this place also.
Work on the extension of the Port

line across the beach s reported to be
progressing rapidly. Uls expected the
work will be finished by Septem
