Without objection from any of the attorneys interested in the case, Cir cuit Judge Cleeton yesterday sustained the demurrer to the complaint in the friendly suit brought by T. N. Stop penbach to restrain the County Com missioners from issuing Jl, 250,000 bonds for the construction of the Co lumbia River interstate bridge, thereby dismissing the suit. Notice of appeal to the Supreme Court was given, from which tribunal a decision is wanted on the legality of the bond issue. Yesterday's ruling by Judge Cleeton upholds the validity of the bond issue, but was made without arguments that the case misht be hurried to the higher court. If Judge Cleeton is sustained In the Supreme Court, the Boston at , torneys examining the bonds will be able to report favorably on the issue nd the bonds will be prepared and sold at the earliest possible date. The Supreme Court of Washington last week upheld the validity of the t'larke County bond issue of $500,000, which will be used in conjunction with the Multnomah issue in constructing the bridge. EWBANK CAR IN SERVICE Southern Pacific Gives Portland In vention Practical Test. The Ewbank electric transmission oar, designed and built by H. B. Kwbank, Jr., of Portland, has be.en placed in service by the Southern Pa trifle between Roseburg and Glendale. It will be given a 30-day test, taking the place of the regular motor car pre viously in use there. The first run was made last Monday and every stop was made on time. The Ewbank car is intended to take the place of both the gasoline motor and the electric trolley. It generates its own electric energy on board and transmits it to each set of wheels the same as an electric car. It burns dis tillate instead of gasoline, thus effect ing a great saving in fuel. r - , - a-Kv:. --?!- ,1 I ' y' V " : ' ' 7 , I ' AT -.(TfTK rA. .tern u i M .

The road now is completely double-tracked from Portland to Garden Home, eight miles. ANTARCTIC TRIP PLANNED Swedish lCijjodJt ion to Visit Graham's T. a lid and Study Whaler. lDMON. April S. It has been learned here that the polar explorers. Dr. Nordenskjold, Admiral Polander and Ounar Andersen, are planning an expe dition to the Antarctic which will cover about the same ground as the liritish Ktackhousn party of 1914. Definite plans have not been made, but it is probable that tho expedition will land an observation party on the east coast of Graham s Land. This party will be composed of six men and will remain there for five years. J. foster Stackhouse, leader of the British 1914 party, xald that one of the objects of the Swedish expedition will be the study of whales, whose habits are still unknown. Whatever friction there may be be tween the Shackleton and Austrian ex peditions there will be nothing but amity between the stackhouse and Swedish parties. Stackhouse already has beenin communication with Dr. Nordenskjold. giving him particulars of the British expedition as far as they concern Graham's Land, and the Swed ish leader has promised to reciprocate as soon as his plans are complete. Dr. Nordcnsk jold's last expedition to the polar regions. In 1903, came to grief when his . ship, tho Antarctic, was crushed in the ice off Graham's Land and the crew had to make its way north, being ultimately picked up by an Argentine vessel. cann'ry, being built tn the Columbia Itiver flat, is completed, and the proj ect promises to be an essential and plausible enterprise. The grade is to be an easy one for the ranchers of the White Salmon River Valley. SAVE YOUR EYES Marvelous Home Treatment Does It. FEMINIST VICTORY SCORED One Swiss Woman Is Solicitor and Another School Dentit. GENEVA, April IS. tSpecial.) By a decision of the Swiss Federal Tri bunal quashing the refusal of the St. Gall cantonal authorities to allow Mile. Barnart to practice as a solicitor, after she had passed her examinations, this profession was opened to Swiss women. A woman barrister is already accepted by tho courts of the Canton -of St. Gall. Another notable feminist victory is the appointment by the Berne munici pal authorities of Mile. Dora Lanz, from among a number of candidates of both sexes, to the remunerative post of dentist to the school children in the Swiss capital. Koud to Cannery of Easy tirade. UUSt.1I. Wash., April 18.

Railway Car Pitted On t With Exhibits Showing Effects of Alcohol . to Be Used in Reform Ctuiailt. ST. PETERSBURG, ' April 18. The educational . campaign against intem perance has started with a vim in Rus sia. At the instance of the Minister of Ways and Communications, a large rail way car has been fitted out with ex hibits showing the results of excessive indulgence in alcohol. It will be taken all over the railways Oi Northern Rus sia by a lecturer and several attend ants. The car will be sidetracked at the principal stations and lectures on the evils of drink will . be given to the railway employes. The lectures will be illustrated by stereopticon slides. It is increasingly apparent that the recent changes in the Cabinet were due solely to the desires of Emperor Nich olas to strengthen ' his campaign against alcoholism. - He is determined to do away with "the national vice," an,d he has instructed hisj new minis ters to attack the drink evil vigor ously. It is understood, that the. new ad ministration proposes to reduce the production of vodka, .the national drink, to increase the . penalties on illicit trading and to refuse hereafter to consider drunkenness as a mitigat. ing circumstance In cases of crime. Ex else officials are to be held to a strict er accountability for what goes on in their districts. How the government proposes to meet the loss of revenue on vodka is not known. Receipts from taxes on liquors last year were $101,540,000, against total receipts of $6,481,118,000 from all sources. The government intends also to take measures to give financial aid to small farmers and rural Industries. The form of this relief has not yet been decided but it is probable that it will include a system of co-operative country banks, based on the system in opera tion in Germany and other continental countries. INTERPRETATIONS OF PARISIAN I STRUCTURES WIN NOTICE. Scientists and Psychical Investigators l'DHled by "Spoobry Occurrences In Vacant House. PARIS. April 18. (Special.) The lat est art colony in Paris is made up of Japanese street .artists from Tokio. who have set up their household gods In the working class quarter of Javel on the left bank of the Seine. Their first prospects are most encouraging. The exotic character of their work has made an immediate appeal to the fancy of the uovelty-loving Parisian, and there is already a big demand for their Jap anese interpretations of the city's fa miliar scenes and landmarks. The ven erable pile of Notre Dame they repre sent standing out against a gray cream colored sky, and the fragile, rigid lines of the Eiffel tower repellant to the Oc c'dental artist, seem almost beautiful through the medium of their quaint Oriental pencilings. Scientists and psychical investigators are baffled by a series of strange man! festltations observable nightly at a lit tle house at Fougeres-sur Bievre. near Blois. The house is a sort of bunga low belonging to a retired business man. Between 10 and 11 at night, and again just before daybreak the curtains of the house occupied by the owner and his grandson are shaken feverishly as if by an invisible hand. At the same time a dull thumping shakes the walls and the floors, causing the plaster to fall from the celling. , Electricians thought perhaps it might be caused electrically, but a thorough search revealed nothing to support this theory. It is thought by the non-superstitious that there may be a subterranean pas sage from the old castle of Fougeres, near by, communicating with the "haunted house," and that the phe nomena are caused either by an inrush of wind, or by someone who is desirous of acquiring the "haunted" premises at a low price. A' few days ago at the opening of the first electric street railway In Constanti nople religious services were held and two lambs were sacrificed over the steel rails as a dedication, to obtain the blessing of Allah on the new railway.
