HI WRIGHT HAS NARROW ESCAPE FROM DANGERS Friends of the High School Get Busy Collecting Votes. Candidates in The Times great pop ular voting contest are exerting every effort to win one of the prizes effcred. The middle of the second week finds many changes in the list. Hundreds of votes have been cast in the last few days and some new names have torged further to the front. The Marshfleld and North Bend High Schools both wero busy yes terday and rolled in several votes. Mrs. H. C. Diers, whose friends have been supporting her, has taken up the contest for the North Bend High School and requests her friends to cast their ballots for the school in stead of voting for her. The vote for the past few days past has been heavy considering the short time the contest has been go ing on, and from now on it may be expected to increase daily. Tell your Irlends that you are out to win and that you want their votes. People help those who help themselves, and if you desire the beautiful piano, a scholarship or a gold watch, you will do well to speak to your friends or give their names to the contest man ager at once. The contest department will help you all it can, but they cannot do it all; you must help yourself, and if you will work In conjunction with the manager of the contest depart ment and be guided by his advice you will have a splendid chance to get a prize. If you want a prize, get busy by getting your friends to subscribe for The Times.

It was declared last night that something would have to bo doiu pretty soon or the city will bo bank rupt. It was stated that the city's creditors are refusing to take war rants on the general fund for their claims, that the little ready money on hand Is being rapidly used up nnd that the expondltuies last month had exceeded tho income by $1,000 or more. Life First Threatened by Tnut Cnble and Later Ily Loaded Cnr, Hut Qu'ck Action Enable Kscape. Hi Wright had a narrow escape from diath or at least serious In ,urj while working on one or tho C . Smith logging trains the night be 'ore last. Ills escape Is due to quick -ction and quick thinking by utili se f and also by his associates. While unloading the heavy logs. Wright slipped and fell so that the power cable caught him across the chest. It had started to tear his clothes and would have almost cut him In twain had the operator of the derrick not noticed the predica ment. The operator threw off the "dogs" allowing the cable to run slack. This freed Mr. Wright, but a new danger confronted him as he fell loose, his legs dropping over the rails just ahead of the moving load ed car. Noticing the new danger, swinging his legs clear of the track in the nick of time. In addition to the bad scare and the loss of the major por tion of his clothing, Mr. Wright was quite badly but not seriously bruised Call at Howard's, the leading Jew eler, and see the OREGON ROSE HAT PIN'S the very latest creation.
