the Jury finds, were purchased from
the Ira K. Towers Furniture Company,
and were secured "as low as could be
furnished by any reliable firm." Speak
inir r the Courthouse, the Jurors ex
press a desire to "commend the County
Court and the architects for their eli-eavoi-a
to net the best for the, county.
The so-culled extras were really addi
tions. Ini-ludln the two upper stories
and the Jail, and many changes In dif

their head-t."
Concerning the furnishings for Mult

In the report that the Morgan-Atchley
Furniture Company. Ihe Kdwards Com
pany. H. Jennlng tt Son and I. Uevurts
ax ttons also submitted bids, ami that
the bid of the Ira F. Towers Furniture
Company was the lowest bid.

written to the grand Jury by William
W hidden, of Whldden I.evl.. archi
tects of the Courthouse btilldtng. In
this communication Mr. Whldden ex
plained In detail the expenditure of
'1.721.47 charged to extras, and de
clared that "not one-quarter of 1 per
cent can be charged as purely extra
work, meaning such Items as were
overlooked or neglected br us In pre
paring the original pl.ni."

Mr. Whldden wrote that It h id been
the custom of his firm to consider one
half, or 2, per cent, of Its per cent
commission earned when in readiness
to let a contract for a building, an
additional I per cent earned when de
t.itlrd drawings are. finished, and the
full 5 per cent when a building was
finally completed lp to January 1.
Jl- his firm had drawn tiu.uuo In
commission, he stated, leaving a bal
ance due of Ji53M.lt. On February 17
the firm had I13.S7I.C3 due It. These
statements from Mr. Whldden were In
answer to charges that the architects
had overdrawn their account by many
tnoiiaand of dollars.
"We recommend that persona held

and be not put In with criminals."
states a paragraph of the grand Jury's
report. This was occasioned by the
fact that the Jurors, when on a visit
to the County Jail yesterday morning,
found a man who had been locked up
as a witness for about a month, lie
complained of his treatment.
Ijter tn the diy the Jury returned
a not true bill In the case of Wtlllnm

lf more than ordinary Importance la
the election this week. Inasmuch as the
ofllcers to be chosen will serve throUKh
the period of the convention. C C
Bradley, esteemed leading knlKht of
the lodce. has been nominated for ex
alted ruler, and as he has no opposition
It Is probable that he will be chosen
unanimously to that hlKh ofnee. There
are no contests for any of the offices
excepting that of esteemed lecturing
knight, for which two nominations have
been made.
Meanwhile the work of preparing for
the gathering of 0.w00 Klks in Port

The scheme to plant purple and white

enthusiasm on the part of l'ortland
residents, as seed dealers report that
they have sold an aggregate of more
than ' pounds of aeed already. So
that the peas will bloom In time for
the convention July s to 13 It will
be necessary to plant them at once.
Seed men advise that they be planted

rians for the establishment of a big
pas and fuel manufacturing plant near
the Government moorings, about one
mile above Linnton, are under way by
the Portland Gas Coke Company. The
site that has been selected covers a
large plot of ground and before the
buildings can be erected It will be
necessary to make a fill on the properly
which will require about S50.000 cubic
yards of earth.
The project will require an expendi
ture estimated at nearly $1,000,000.
The plant will have a much larger
capacity than the one now in opera
tion on the waterfront between Everett
and Flanders streets. Included In the
plana for the new project there will
be established a plant for the manu
facture of brlckettes for fuel purposes.
The brlckettes will be molded from
tine coal and residue of the gas gen
erating plant.
The company plans to install a plant
that will provide gas for a much larger
population than Portland now has. The
new location wan selected because of
better facilities for receiving oil from
steamers and also for the reason that
the property now occupied has become
too valuable for such a purpose. The
new location is also outside of the city
limits and the Are risk accordingly
will be reduced greatly.
The remova? of the plant to the new
site will require the laying of several
miles of main gas conduits. The dis
tributing plants on both the East Side
and West Sides will not be affected by
the removal of the main plant out
side of the city limits.

I.OX: TEST FltOVES PLANT IS
, GREAT SUCCESS.
rure Water Xotv Available for
Varsity Students Xo I I sense
Producing Germs Found.
After a trial of 11 months, the health
committee of the faculty of the Cniver
sity of Oregon pronounced the filter
plant at Eugene a success and declares
tliat a safe water supply has been
found for the students of the State
University. Professor Sweetzer. tiie
head of the department of botany, who
is also State Biologist, has been mak
ing bacteriological tests, four times a
week since the filter was installed last
April. His findings have shown that
at times during high water the Willam
ette River has shown 4000 colonies of
bacteria to the cubic centimeter, while
the same water after It has passed
through the filter has averaged but
five or six colonies to the cubic centi
meter, and tests have never shown more
than 30. In the tests made of the flK
tered water, no pathogenic or disease
producing germs have been found. Con
sidering that a few colonies of the
harmless varieties of bacilli are found
even In the pure water of mountain
streams, the results of the tests have
been highly satisfactory.
The most pleasing proof of the purity
of the water at Eugene has been the
entire absence of typhoid and other in
testinal disorders from among the stu
dents. There has not been a single
student 111 with typhoid since the in
stallation of the filter. Speaking of
the effect of the filter upon the health
of the community. Professor Stafford,
head of the chemistry department of
the university, who is chairman of the
health committee of the faculty, under
whose direction the change in the
water system at Eugene lias taken
place, said:
"Every case of typhoid which has
come under my observation in the town
of Eugene since the Installation .of the
filter plant, has been found to have
arisen from drinking well water or
from some other source of contamina
tion than the city water. It is with a
great deal of satisfaction that we know
now that the health of the students Is
no longer endangered from contami
nated water supply. Of course, a water
system that must depend upon filtra
tion Is not as satisfying as that sup
plied by a pure mountain stream and
we are not so self-contented that the

water to all the Willamette Valley

CARD OF THANKS.
For the many expressions of kind
ness and sympathy from our friends
and neighbors in the loss of our be
loved father we extend our sincero
thanks. EMMA STUROHLER.
MARTHA STURCHLKR.
Trusses Like These Are A Crime
Gt Rid of Elastic Bands. Springs and Leg
Straps. Such Harness Has forced
Thousands to Cndersro Dan
Serous Operations.
Trusses Uke those shown above the belt
and ler-strap, elastic and sprfnff contrap
tions sold by drugstores, surgical instru
ment houses and many self-styled "Hernia
Specialists" mako lite miserable for every
body who wears them.
And even when drawn so tight you can
scarcely stand to keep them on they do
no good whatever.
Instead, they often do immense harm
they squeeze the rupture, often causing
strangulation dig into the pelvic bone in
front press against the sensitive spinal col
umn at the back.
Tbe rialn Truth Is This.
Rupture as explained In our free book
can't be relieved or cured can't even be
kept from growing worse unless constantly
held in place. Just as a. broken bone can't
"knit" unless the parts are held securely
together.
And just as a bandage or splint Is the
only way a broken bone can be held the
right kind of truae is the only thing In tbe
world that can keep a rupture from coming
out.
What a difference It will make when you
get that kind of truss.
And you ran get exactly that kind of truss
without risking a cent of your money.
It's the famous Clutbe Truss or C'luthe
Automatic Massager.
Far more than a truss far more than
merely a device for holding the rupture in
piace.
So different from everything else for rup
ture that It has received 38 separata patents.
Thousands say It is aa comfortable as
their clothing.
No bait, elastic belt or springs around
your waist, and no leg-straps nothing to
pinch, chafe, squeexe or bind. Self-regulating,
self-adjusting. It is held in position by
suction can't shift or slip the only truss
in existence that is honestly guaranteed
never to let the rupture come out.
Try It 60 Days at Oar Risk.
TVe have so much faith in the Cluthe
Truss we have seen It work wonders for
so many others that we want to make one
especially for your case and let you wear
It at our risk
We'll give you 0 days time to test it
if it doesn't keep your rupture from coming
out. whn you are working and at all othr
times if it doesn't put an end to the trouble
you've heretofore had with your rupture
if you don't tret better right away then
the truss won't cost you a cent.
How It Strengthens and Heals.
In addition to holding the rupture, the
Cluthe Truss or Cluthe Automatic Massager
Is constantly giving a soothing, strengthen
ing massage' to the weak ruptured parts.
All automatically the massage goes on
all day long, all without any attention what
ever from you. .
This massage which strengthens just ai
exercise strengthens a weak arm is so re
markably beneficial so remarkably curative
that in 1DJ) cases out of every 200 rupture
begins to get better from the day a Cluthe
Truss ia put on.
The World's Greatest Book on Rupture.
Don't go on letting your rupture get worne
don't spend a cent on account of your rup
t ure un t tl you get our book of advice
which two cents for a stamp or a penny
for a postal wilt bring you.
This remarkable book cloth-bound. S2
pagos. 21 separate articles, and 21 photo
graphic pictures took us over 40 years to

facts we've put in it.
It explains the dangers of operations and
why they don't always cure to stay -ured.
Tells why for the protection of the ptblie
drugstores should not be allowed to sell
trusses.
Explains why belt, spring and elastic
trusses can do no good. Exposes tho hum
bug "methods,' "appliances," "plasters,"
etc.
And tells absolutely without misrepresen
tation all about the Cluthe Truss just how
it holds how it gives the curing massage
how it is water-proof how it ends nil ex

you to know about it.
