J Milo C. King, Gresharo attorney,
j was thrown, in the county jail by
J Circuit Judge Gatens yesterday for
contempt of court in failing to pay
Z $50 toward alimony due his wife,
who obtained a default divorce from
J him last December. His plea of
poverty did not move the court as
J the judge had given him respite of
more than three weeks, from the
time he was first haled to answer,
; in which to raise the money.
Indications are that the attorney
J win remain In jail for the statutory
10 days and leave by subscribing to
the pauper's' oath, unless he finds a
J legal way to combat the court order.
J Statement Is Made.
J In a "statement" filed with the
- county clerk yesterday, King claims
I that he is not guilty of contempt of
" court because he has appealed to
Z the supremo court from the divorce
decree and 'because his wife has ad-
mltted that ihe did not treat her
cruelly and that she wanted nothing
J from him but her freedom and
maiden name. He avers that he
J "has not had, haa not now, and may
not have a dollar of his own or un
3 borrowed money with which to pay
J fchia alimony."
He closes the statement with the
assertion that he "is not cowardly,
- lawless nor contempt?uie enough to
borrow or steal money for the plain
j tiff or her attorney in this freak
lawsuit, wherein they are the
: actors."
Alimony Is Awarded.
King was" married November 26,
riMD. Jane Elizabeth King obtained
her decree of divorce, from Judge
Gatens last December on a com
plaint in which she charged 'her
husband with compelling her to live
inva shack on the banks of John-
'" son' creek and cook on a gas plate
t in their garage. Alimony of $75 a
' month was awarded, of which about
! 31 S has been paid.
Brought into court for contempt in
' failure to pay the alimony assessed,
t (.King told Judge Gatens last month
-itiat he did not have the money.
.-The judge gave him three weeks in
which to raise at least $50. Failure
I to do this resulted in the issuance
of a bench warrant and arrest of
-King yesterday. i

OREGON AGRICULTURAL COL
LEGE. Corvallis, July 8. (Special.)
Oregon farmers are installing
mu'.tivane fans to recirculate air in
their prune driers under the direc
tion of, the .horticultural products
section of the Oregon Agricultural
college experiment station.
"The fans will mean a lot to
prune driers in Oregon," says Pro
fessor Ernest H. Wiegand, undur
whose direction work has been done
on the problem of using multivano
fans to trecirculate air. "The rate of
circulation will be quadrupled. The
a'r may be used over and over
again, thus bringing about a saving
in fuel."
The Eugene Fruit Growers' as
sociation has adopted this syste.n
and is installing two large fans in a
new type of drier recommended by
the experiment station. This drier
will be the first of its kind to be in
stalled in Oregon and will have a
capacity of 10 to 12 tons in 24 hburs.
Air will be passed over the fruit at
the rate of 700 lineal feet a minute
Others installing fans include C.
R. Widmer and Rudolph Ingerly' of
Albany. Jess N. Nichols of Irvinsr,
Dr. Scarborough of Creswell, L. M.
Miller of Eugene, H. E. Hecker of

The portrait for which Mr. Berger
won lirst rating was that of the
three children of Mrs. A.1 P. Waha
of Portland. It is a home picture
and very natural. The smallest
child, which stands with its back
directly to the camera, has unusual
character in its back and head. Mr.
Berger's display won high praise
from Mr. Harris, who said they
were among the best group por
traits he had seen. Mr. Berger's
other groups were of Mrs. Coe A,
McKenna and children, Ms. Henry

of Mrs. Elliott Corbett, Mrs. H. H.
O'Reilly and five daughters, and
the children of Mrs. A. M. Cannon.
HIGHER HAY RATE ASKED
RAILROADS WOCLD RAISE ON
WASHINGTON GROWERS.
Demand of Oregon Producers to
Be Placed on Par With Neigh
bor State Is Countered.
As a reason why easte'rn Oregon
alfalfa hay growers should not be
granted a. reduction in freight rates
comparable to those in effect for
growers in eastern Washington, J
E. Davis, assistant general freight
agent for the O.-W. R. & N. rail
road and for ten years in charge of
the rate department, told the public
service commission ' of Oregon yes
terday that railroads in Washington
were seeking an increase in the
rate on hay to the Oreeon level.
Mr. Davis, who went on- the wit
ness, stand late Friday and con
tinued until adjournment yesterday
noon, was a star witness for the de
fendant railroads in the hearing on
the petition presented to the com
mission by farm and dairy interests
of. eastern and western Oregon
The hearing i3 expected to conclude
Monday.
Railroads in Washington were
granted a .freight' increase on nu
merous commodities, but not hay,
some time ago and they were now in
the act of preparing a petition for
presentation to the public service
commission of that state aimed to
eliminate the differential between
Oregon . and Washington rates by
increasing the latter, said Mr. Davis.
On cross-examination by Frederick
Steiwer of Pendleton, representing
the hay growers, the witness admit
ted that no petition had yet, been
filed, though asserting that such
action would be taken shortly.
The last survivor of the firBt party
of. emigrants which Marcus Whit
man brought to Oregon, John
Stoughton, is now within a month
of being 92 years of age. He is
at the Multnomah rarm near Trout-
dale. Mr. . Stoaghton was born at
Westfield. Mass., September 23, 1830.
At the age of 6 years he moved with
his parents to Selma. Ala. Here he
stayed five years,' when he moved
to Weston, Mo. In 1843, his family
joined the first wagon party that
ever attempted to cross the plains
into the Oregon country, the party
under Marcus Whitman, the pioneer
missionary.
200 Wagona In Train.
Two hundred wagons hauled by
ox teams, with five occupants to
every wagon, comprised the party
which, traveling almost continu
ously for seven months, eventually
arrived at the spot where Oregon
City now stands. Sickness was ram
pant during most of the Journey,
and timber wolves and Indians were
a constant menace. At one time the
party was in the path of a stam
pede of thousands of buffaloes, and
narrowly escaped annihilation. An
other time Indians stopped the cav
alcade and exacted nine fat beeves
as tribute.
Three weeks later, according to
Mr. Stoughton, the party was again
halted by a large party of Indians.
Kit Carson . and Fremont, with a
couple of dozen soldiers and a few
mountaineers, came to the rescue of
the travelers and firmly demanded
and obtained passage for them. The
soldiers then, escorted the party for
eight or ten days till it was out of
the territory of the hostile tribe.
The party, stopping occasionally
to allow the women to do the wash
ing and the men to renew its supply
of meat, finally reached La Grande,
where all provisions -gave out. Mar
cus Whitman went ahead and, get
ting wheat from the Indians, led the
party to the present site of Portr
land, where it disbanded .
Home Is Established
Mr. Stoughton. with other mem
bers of the party, established a
home and lived here for five years.
In 1848 he left Portland and went
to a place near what is now Salem.
Here in 1850 he married Miss Fran
ces E. Towneer-d. - Three children
were born here, one of which, Mrs.
Mary E. Harris, is now living. Mr.
Stoughton is not sure of her where
abouts at present. In 1879 Mr.
Stoughton left Oregon for Red
Bluff, Cal., where he lived three
years. From 1892 until 1918 Mr.
Stoughton lived in Oregon and
Washington. The last four years
he has, lived at the Multnomah farm.
Mr. Stoughton claims the distinc
tion of at one time being saved
from drowning by Marcus Whit
man. He was a great hunter, and
so great was his prowess with the
rifle that he was often ruled out of
shooting matches or handicapped in
some way. He always has been a
Republican, but several years ago
ceased voting the straight ticket.
At the last presidential election he
voted for Harding.
Ku ,Klnx Klan Opposed
Although partially deaf Mr.
Stoughton has retained- his eyesight
and all his. faculties. He is a
Seventh Day Adventist and attends
not only the meetings of his own
faith, but also those of other sects
at the farm. He believes firmly
in religious tolerance and is strong
ly against the Ku Klux Klan.
"If I could be young again I
would live my whole life over with
great zest," he declared.
SUMMER WORK LAID OUT
Activities of Normal School Are
Organized by Student Body.
OREGON NORMAL SCHOOL, Mon
mouth, July 8. (Special.) The 1922
12-weeks summer session has com
pleted the organization of its activ
ities. A new policy has been in
augurated, inasmuch as the students
have taken into their own hands the
planning and carrying . out of their
activities.! Heretofore a faculty
committee, presided over by Miss
Jessica Todd, dean of women, has
had charge of all social affairs. The
new system not only is much more
satisfactory to the students, but
several changes have been worked
out which are designed to serve the
whole student body; better.
The student body has been sep
arated into four groups of approx
imately 200 students each and1 dances
and non-dance social entertainments
will be held each Saturday night.
Swimming has been added and an
arrangement has been made with
the city of Independence whereby
normal students will have use of the
inclosed swimming pool in the Wil
lamette at stated periods.
LOGANBERRY CROP SAVED
Hillsboro Residents Turn Out in
Response to Appeal.
HILLSBORO, Or., July 8. (Spe
cial.J The extreme hot weather has
ripened the loganberries in this
community with lightning rapidity.
The matter of the loss by reason of
over-ripe berries,' shrinkage from
the heat and the dry soil cannot
be met. However, a crisis has been
shown to the community to exist.
, A call was sent out to the busi
ness men by Dr. L. W. Hyde, presi
dent of the commercial body here
and A. C. Shute, mayor. Out of the
conference which followed a plan
was evolved by which the people
of the town turned out as a patriotic
duty and have done much to save
the crop, which would have gone
to waste by reason of neglect be
fore pickers could be imported.
Timber Company Fights Fire.
SILVERTON. Or., July 8. (Spe
cial.) The Silver Falls Timber
company has been fighting a fire in
its timber holdings In the Abiqua
basin for several days. Dally men
have gone from .the mill to assist
the loggers. As yet no bridges or
camps have been destroyed, and an
effort is being made to protect the
green timber.' Although snags
which hold the fire are being
cleared out as fast as possible, no

LIVE COMMUNITY" RAISES MOSTEY FOR BUTLDINO PROJECT THROUGH PRIVATE SUBSCRIPTIONS A3TD
ENTERTAINMENTS AND WILL PROVIDE LIBRARY FOR USE OF ALL.
THERE- is plenty of public spirit '
lying dormant in every small
community and waiting to be
stirred into action, as shown by the
experience of the University park
district, which is looking- forward to
the early completion of its new li
brary at Lombard and Hereford
streets. Since the project was
launched last January it has been
financed, a community club organ-
lied, a library association formed
and incorporated, several larjre
scale entertainments provided for
the- public and eteps taken for fur
ther civic improvement. All this
activity, which has put University
Park distinctly on the map, has ra
diated from the library building
project as it was conceived and put
into execution.
"Only the game fish sw-im up
stream." This was the nhilosophv
of a few leading- spirits ihere who
realized that commuuity anterprise
should be more than mere noise and
a dinning in the ears of city boards
ana orriclals or a swarming around
the public pork barrel. They rec
ommended to the community the
policies of a little self-exsrtion and
a reliance upon home resources in
the main. Given the task of providing-
a building for the library
which the Multnomah county library
association was willing to maintain,
provided satisfactory quarters could
be furnished, the residents of the
community arranged a mass meeting
at which the project of buylng a lot
and erecting a building was ex
plained. In response to an appeal for the
funds, more than half th. B.-mntmt
necessary for the purchase of the
lot was contributed at this meeting.
The next day a general canvass was
made, with the result that sufficient
pieages were secured to cover the
balance of the cost of the lot. In
this initial effort the subscriptions
ranged from 81 to $100, w'th even
the children nf thn nnmmnnit,-
tributing. Many of the men out of
worn onerea lo aonate their labor
to the building and newsboys of
the district riid thir share in ad
vertising the mass meeting.

loan was secured to cover the cost

POPULAR SUMMER RESORT
ATTRACTS CROWDS.
Hundreds Bathe on Sandy Shore
and Others Patronize New
Skating Rink.
Columbia beach, Portland's play
ground on tbe Columbia river, was
formally opened last night for the
season with a big free dance and
Mardi Gras in the nw pavilion.
Until late at night the merry crowds
swung about amid showers of con-
fetti . and a mass ' of serpentine
stringers.
Every moment was a lively one,
for as soon as any of the frolickers
left the floor there were others
waiting to take their places. The
number of dancers was limited- only
by the capacity of the floor.
From now on there will be some
thing doing all of the time at the
amusement resort.
Bathing along the sandy beach
attracted hundreds of persons in
the afternoon, the crowds taking
advantage of the new bathhouse
which has replaced- the old one with
a great increase of facilities. Floats
have been placed a short distance
from the shore, and on these are all
the different kinds of paraphernalia
dear to the water sportsman's heart.
The new skating rink, which has
been opened for the first time this
year, drew heavy patronage from
the long boardwalk last night and
was a close rival of the Mardi Gras

vored .generously in the purchase of
materials, several- Important items
being covered by outright donations,
As a result, the association formed
for holding- and managing the proj
ect for the community will have un
der its control a property valued at
$5300, with an indebtedness prob
ably not exceeding $2500.
This indebtedness has stimulated
effort on the part of the community
rather than tending to dampen the
spirits of the enthusiastic residents.
At a concert given at the Portsmoth
school by the Webber Juvenile or
chestra $100 was realized and a
"community hoorah," given, recently
on the school grounds, cleared $250
for the library fund and in addition
secured 100 new members for the
community club. Nearly 200O per
sons were present at tile "hoorah,"
the largest crowd that has ever as
sembled in University Park for any
similar function. Against such at
tacks the-' indebtedness will not
prove a serious factor, tince the
building itself has been leased to
the county ilbary association for a
period of five years.
:
The building is of bungalow type,
26 by 50 feet, with a 12 by 20-foot
annex. Its sightliness and thor
oughness of construction emphat
ically are apparent. It Is directly
across the street from the Ports
mouth school, the determining fac
tor in' selecting the site being its
proximity to the school and a desire
to obviate the necessity of the chil
dren crossing the street car tracks.
The building is now in the last
stages of finishing and will be ready
for occupancy by the library asso
ciation on August 1. The stocking
of it with books and fixtures is ex
pected to take about a month and it
i wi-11 probably be opened to the pub
lic about September 1.
The community association which
has charge of the "property rs com
posed of nine directors, as follows:
Thomas Willis, president; Mrs. Bes
sie Porter, vice-president; George
Mahoney, secretary; E. J. Fully,
treasurer, and Rev. John D. Rice, J.

Cottage Grove Sentinel and presi

CURED HIS
RHEUMATISM!
"I am 83 years old and I doctored for
rheumatism ever since I cajnd out of the
army, over 30 years ago. Like many oth
ers. I spent money freely for eo-called
'cures' and t have read about 'Uric Acid
until I could almost taste R. I could not
sleep nights or walk without pain; my
hands were so sore and stiff I could not
hold a pen. But now I am again in ac
tive" business and can walk with ease or
write ali day with comfort. Friends are
surprised at the change." You might
just as well attempt to put out a fira
with oil as try to get rid of your rheu
matjsm, neuritis and like complaints by
taking treatment supposed to drive Uric
Acid out of your blood and body. It took
Mr. Ashelman 50 years to find out tbe
truth. He learned how to get rid of the
true cause of his rheumatism, other dis
orders, and recover his strength from
"The Inner Mysteries," now being dis
tributed free by an authority who de
voted 20 years to the scientific study
of this trouble. If any reader of The
Oregonlan wishes "The Inner Mysteries
of Rheumatism." overlooked by doctors
and scientists for centuries past, simply .
send a post card or letter to H. P. Clear
water, No. 210-T street, Hallowell, Maine.
Send now, lest you forget! If not a suf
ferer, cut out this notice- and hand this
good news and opportunity to some af
flicted friend. All who send will, re
ceive it by return mall without any
charge whatever. Adv.
Joyful Family Reunion
"Two of my brothers, a sister, as
well as myself, have been chron'c
sufferers from gas in the stomach,
indigestion, pain in right side rear
appendix and liver trouble for many
years. My sister tried Mayr's Won
derful Remedy with such good re
sults that we all took a course of it
and it helped in each case. Last
Sunday we had a family reunion in
celebration of our recovery, and
what we all did eat." It is a simple,
harmless preparation that removes
the catarrhal mucus from the in
testinal tract and allays the inflam
mation which causes practically all
stomach, liver a.nd intestinal ail
ments, including appendicitis. One
dose will convince or money re
funded. For sale at all druggists.

Eyesight Dim?
If your eyesight is dim, your vision

from your druggist, dissolve on in a
fourth of a glass of water and use ta
bathe the eyes from two to four times
a day. Bon-Opto has given stronger
eyes, clearer, sharper vision and relief
to thousands.
