Swept to Sea Dirig
ible Sinks in Bay.
NEW YORK, July 6. The dirigible
balloon carrying George M. Gay, a

away from the New Jersey shore of
the Hudson early last night and was
for six hours unheard from here, fell
in the waters of Long; Island Sound
at 7:30 o'clock last night, according
to definite word received early this

balloon before It reached the water's
surface, a mile and a half off shore.

up alter swimming about for five min

The balloon covered a distance of
about 25 miles in Its uncontrolled

Rev. E. B. O'Hara, Amedee M. Smith
and Miss Bertha Moores, to be held
at the commission's headquarters, 610
Commercial building, tomorrow morn
ing the department store managers of
the city will return an answer as -to
whether they are willing to close their
stores at 6 o'clock Saturday evenings
without being forced to do so by or
der of the commission. As an order
of the commission does not take effect
for 60 days after being Issued, the com-i
missioners are anxious that the closing
should be done voluntarily, so that em
ployes will get Saturday nights off
during the Summer months.
The commission also will confer with
factory owners tomorrow on the ques
tion of wages, working conditions and
hours for female workers and minor
workers of both sexes in their es
tablishments. The commission is
vested with power to regulate all these
things, its conclusions being final.
Father O'Hara states that laundries,
telephone offices, hotels and restau
rants and other places where girls
are employed will be taken up in their
turn as quickly as they can be reached
and wages and working conditions ad
justed. "Wages .paid in department
stores are scheduled for early consid
eration.

WEEK'S MUSIC IS PRAISED
o
Director Boyer's Results at Confer'
v , . ence Declared Excelent.
Music sung at the different sessions
of the Christian Citizenship Conference,
held on the Multnomah stadium this
past week, has been much and deserv
edly admired. Its unaffected simnlic
ity and earnestness has been its great
est charm, the only instrumental ac
companiments being those supplied
with pianos. In this latter department
William c Mcculloch, the1 regular ac
companist for the Apollo Club, did ex
cellent work. It was at first hoped
to secure the services of a brass band,
but the public subscriptions fell far
short of the money desired, and piano
accompaniments were substituted in
stead. "
There was a -great crowd in at
tendance Thursday night, when the
chorus, William H. Boyer, director, sang
the Infammatus from Rossini s "Stab-
at Mater," i-ith solo obligato by Mrs,
Rose Bloch Bauer, soprano. This chorus
was grandly sung and Mrs. Bauer's
singing of the obligato was magnifi
cent. It was marked by dignity and
true dramatic quality, yet with rever
ence, and Mrs. Bauer's high C in al
tissimo thrilled," winning many com
pliments.
Tuesday night about 50 members
of the Apollo Club sang Schubert's
Omnipotence, with Miss Edith Ross
lyn Collais singing the soprano oblr
gato. This number was impressively
rendered. Miss Collais sang her solo
with true appreciation of the text and
her voice was sparkling and artistic
Her enunciation was admirable and
she is now one of the first sopranos
in Portland. The Apollo Club made
big hit in singing Pache's "'Silent Rec
ollection," and the club member never
sang more impressively, especially in
fine shading. Mr. Boyer has made a
competent and hardworking conductor,
and has been quite successful In rous
ing the crowds to join in the singing
of familiar hymns. The hymn singing
was hearty and one of the brightest
remembrances of the occasion.

Fa a "Women Attend.
WALLA WALLA, Wash., July 6.
(Special.) Convicts at the State Peni
tentiary tonight gave a full-fledged
vaudeville show. Including motion pic
tures. The show was the same as last
night, when convicts and a few invited
guests witnessed It. Tonight the pub
Ho was admitted.

ment has ever been given at the prison
at night, and last night was the first
time women prisoners were allowed to
attend an entertainment.
The programme consisted of songs.
sketches, juggling, monologues and mo
tlon pictures. An explanatory note on
the programme read:
"In order to conform with the latest
society fad, the members of the club
are called by number only, rating of
the members is very high, in fact, al
most exasperating. For further infor
mation as to standing, social or finan
cial, we refer you to Drum and Graham,
who are the Dun and Bradstreet of this
section."
Mr. Drum Is warden and Mr. Graham
is deputy warden.

George Walthers Rescues Albany
Citizen at Xewport.
NEWPORT, Or.. July 5. (Special.)
George Walthers, -of the -. Fairbanks
Morse Company, of Portland, removed
part of his clothing today and res
cued John Watkins, of Albany, from
drowning.
Watkins had gotten out beyond the
At a meetinsr of the State TMncirini
Welfare Commission, consisting "of breakers and was sinking.
The flesh was torn and cut on Mrs,
Shetterley's arm from the shoulder to
the elbow, her " hands were badly
bruised and cut and seven of her fin
gernails were torn off.
Mrs. Shetterley Beovrs XJp.
Although suffering severely when
taken to tne nospitai. she bore up
bravely and. asked repeatedly how the
other occupants of the car fared. It
was -thought at first that Miss Jones
had been seriously Injured, but she
gained her feet after the plunge from
the automobile and did not collapse
until the Injured women had been
taken to the hospital. Her physician
found that she was suffering only from
shock and fright and It is believed that
he will be all right in a day or two
The driver of the other car lives in
Albany, and after rendering what
aid he could, started for his home. He
said that he saw the machine driven
by Miss Jones headed for his car and
called to her to stop or change her
course, as it was impossible for him
to get out of the way. He said it was
remarkable that no occupant of his
car was injured, the occupants of the
other one being hurled directly over
their heads. - One of the women who
was Injured -was hurled through the
wind shield of the car in which she was
riding and the wind shield of the other
machine.
Miss Jones' machine was wrecked,
but the other one was only slightly in
jured. Versions as to the cause of the
wreck differ.
. Mlsa Jones Expert Driver.
Mrs. Shetterley and Miss Neilson ar
rived here at 2 o'clock on the special ,
train which brought the Portland Ro
sarians. After witnessing the exercises
in front of the courthouse and partak
ing of luncheon at the Illlhee Club, they
were invited by Miss Jones to be her
guest on a sightseeing trip about the
city. They started about 4 o'clock and
were on the way to Miss Jones' home
when the accident occurred. It Is not
believed the car was going a rate of
more than 12 miles an hour. Miss Jones
is an expert driver, and never was in
an accident before.
Miss Jones said tonight that the car
she was driving was run into by the
other car, which was driven by George
N. Wills, of Albany. She said that
when she saw the other car and believed
that a collision was imminent, she
swerved her machine and that she
heard Mr. Willis yell to her to stop.
His machine, she said, kept coming at
the rate of speed it was going when
she first saw it and the collision re
sulted.
Soule was a participant in a. five-mile
motorcycle race, when the front tire of
his machine blew up and the wheel col
lapsed. He was thrown on his face,
and was unconscious for several min
utes. His front teeth were knocked
out and his mouth and face cut and
bruised. As a result of the accident
the race was declared off.
Mr. and Mrs. N. A. Neilson, 4o Jessup
street, parents of Elizabeth Neilson,
left last night for Salem to attend their
injured daughter.

Tucson Affair Complicated by De
sire of State Department to
Avoid Recognizing Huerta.
WASHINGTON, July 5. Two inci
dents involving desecration of National
flags, which marked celebrations yes
terday, are expected to form the sub
ject of complaints to the State Depart
ment, but so far nothing has been
heard from them.
The affair at Winnipeg, Manitoba,
involving the trampling of an Amer
ican flag at a British parade, prob
ably cannot be made the basis of an
official protest for the reason that in
ternational law does not guarantee the
protection of flags of a foreign coun
try except where they are displayed
over official buildings.
In -the Tucson, Ariz., incident, how
ever, where the flag over the Mexican
consulate was torn down, the State
Department probably will feel obliged
to require the local authorities to make
a proper apology and amends to the
Mexican Consul if that can be done
without involving any official recogni
tion of the Huerta government, which
appears to be the great apprehension
of the State Department at this juncture.
FEDERAL- AID WITHDRAWN
Arkansas Militia Penalized for Los
ing Valuable Equipment.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., July 5. Gov
ernor Futrell announced today that
Secretary of War Garrison had with
drawn financial support of the Federal
Government from the Arkansas Na
tional Guard.
The Secretary's letter, the Governor
said, said this action was not taken
because the last Legislature had failed
to appropriate $75,000 for maintenance,
but because in a few years about 115,
000 worth of Federal equipment had
been lost through negligence of state
officials.
