Gladstone Scene of Grounding After
River Craft Hits Gravel Bar
at Willamette Rapids.
OREGON CITY. Or., Jan. 11. (Spe
cial.) With her wheel under water
and two-thirds of her hull submerged,
the steamer Ruth, with a cargo of $12,
000 worth of paper, is beached near
Gladstone. The loss to the paper is
about 90 per cent and the steamer is
badly damaged. The Ruth, which is
the property of the Willamette Navi
gation Company, about 8 o'clock this
morning struck a gravel bar at the
Willamette rapids, tearing a hole In her
hull. Her captain, Fred Hegdale, real
izing that the craft was badly dam
aged, steared for Gladstone - and
beached, the steamer.
The paper was from the mills of the
Willamette Pulp & Paper Company and
the Crown-Columbia Paper Company.
B. T: McBaln, mill manager of the Wil
lamette Pulp & Paper Company, said
that the paper which had been damaged
could be made over, but the salvage
would be small. The boat will be
saved, although the cost of raising and
repairs probably will amount to sev-

eral thousand dollars. Both steamer
and cargo were fully insured.
Upon striking the bar the steamer
whistled for aid, and the steamer Annie
Comings, which was coming to this
city from Portland, soon stood by. The
steamer N. R. Lang, also en route from
Portland, answered the call for help in
less than half an hour. There was
nothing, however, the other boats could
do, for the Ruth had been beached be
fore their arrival and the crew was
never in danger. Announcement was
made tonight that the work of unload
ing the disabled vessel would be begun
at once, and she would be repaired as
soon as possible. The Ruth left the
locks here at 7 o'clock this morning
bound for Portland.

Priest's Advice Led
To Her Recovery
To say that a. specific exists for the core
of Consumption is perhaps too strong a
statement, but in Eckman' Alterative we
have a medicine 4hat has been the means
of savin r many a life to years of useful
ness, and in permanently benefiting a large
number of Consumptives.
Certainly a person afflicted with a wast
ing disease should be well fed with whole
some, nourishing food, but frequently raw
egs in quantities cause a digestive break
down, and then no food nourishes. As for
milk, a very good food for many, but a
producer of biliousness for some, ,
An- diet that keeps a Consumptive well
nourished is the right one, but what's go
ing to improve the patient? Eckman's Al
terative has brought about full recovery
in many cases of Consumption. Let those
speak who know. Here is one:
Rochester. N.' T.

St. Mary's Hospital, Rochester, X. Y. After

and am absolutely well. Believing I owe
it to myself and others, I make this state

EUGENE FRUITMEN BUSY
MORE, THAN 17,000 CASES ARE
CAXXED BY GROWERS.
Total Cost of Packing and Selling to
Association Figured at $29,825,
According to Report.
EUGENE, Or., Jan. 11. (Special.)
More than 17,000 cases of fruits and
vegetables were canned the past year
by the plant of the Eugene Fruitgrow
ers' Association, according to the re
port of Manager Holt, read before the
stockholders at their annual meeting
here today. Of the produce packed,
all but 3000 cases had been sold by the
first of the year. -The total cost of
packing and selling was $29,825.
Early indications that the prune and
cherry crops would be short induced
the association to turn greater atten
tion than usual to the canning of vege
tables. The pumpkin output of the
Eugene cannery was probably one of
the largest in the state.
Cabbage- was put up In various sized
cans as kut. and is finding a ready
sale, as consumers generally are be
coming educated away from the ordi
nary kraut barrel of the corner gro
cery. If the demand seems to warrant,
kraut and bacon and kraut and sausage
will be canned.
Of all the products of the association,
four find markets east of the Rocky
Mountains; the rest have to depend on
the local and Northwest markets. Ore
gon pears, by reason of their high qual
ity, can be shipped into the Mlpsissfppl
Valley and there command double' the
price of the local product. Red rasp
berries, loganberries and cherries are
the three that are also able to compete
In the Eastern markets because of their
superior quality.
The Lane County beets have proved
to give an extra quality of canned
product.
The total number of tons of vege
tables canned in 1912 was 268, as com
pared with 69 for the previous year,
and of berries that were canned in 1912,
147 tons, as compared with 44 for the
year before. The aggregate pack of
fruits and vegetables will fill 46 cars.
Directors were elected as follows: H.
F. McCornack. F. B. Chase, George A.
Dorris, M. H. Harlow, Ernst Miller, J.
Beebe, F. B. Harlow, J. O. Holt and
John Thramer. The directors re-elected
the officers of last year, who are:
H. F. McCornack, president; J. Beebe,
vice-president; First National Bank,
treasurer; J. O. Holt, secretary and
manager. -
