A wedding of interest to Ashland
people occurred at Jacksonville
Thursday morning, when Miss Nettie
Abbott of this city was united in
marriage to Mr. Bert Armpriest; a
young rancher living near Jackson
ville. Miss Abbott is well known in
Ashland, having received her early
education in the schools of this city.
She is also a graduate of a California
normal school, and has been teaching
in the' vicinity of Jackksonville,
where she first became acquainted
with Mr. Armpriest.
CANADA USES TOWER.
Generating Plants at Niagara Falls
Reing Enlarged, ' -
Niagara Falls, N. Y. Recent en
largements of the generating plants
of the hydro-electric power' com
panies on the Canadian side of Niag
ara Falls call attention to the rap
idly growing demand in the province
of Ontario for this modern form of
energy, 'and are leading to appre
hension as to the effect of this ex
pansion upon Industry on the Ameri
can side of the border. Six years
ago less than 3,000 horsepower from
Niagara Falls was sold In Canada.
Now sales amount to about 100,000
horsepower, while one of the three
companies in the field announces
that by 1913 it will have ready two
additional generating iinits Of 13,000
horsepower each to meet the increas
ing demands of its Canada' business.
There Is a limit to this growth.
It lis found in the recently- negotiated
treaty for protecting the scenic
beauty of the falls, by which Canada
is restricted to a maximum of 36,000
cubic feet of water a second, and the
United States to 20,000 cubic feet
a second in all only a small fraction
of the total flow. The United States
is already using all but 4,000 cubic
feet of her allowance, Canada about
half of hers.
The United States would be using
her full amount but for the fact that
the treaty Is not yet fully operative
in this country. By an old law, Tun
ing until March 4, 1913, industries
on the American side of the falls are
limited to 15,600 cubic feet of water
a second, while importation of elec
trical current from Canada ( is re
stricted to 160,000 horsepower. The
latter provision, intended to safe
guard the Horseshoe falls, was de
vised at a time when the Canadian
government afforded the cataract no
protection. Under the treaty the
protection is ample and permanent,
and when the treaty becomes opera
tive the restriction will be removed.
What is worrying business men of
western New York is that while they
wait for the treaty to give them
4,400 cubic feet additional water and
to remove the limit on importation
of power, new Industries are passing
them by and locating in Canada.
This means not only loss of the in
dustries themselves, but the absorp
tion of Canada's limited quota of hydro-electric
energy, so that when un
restricted importation of power is
finally permitted, Canada may be us
ing all the treaty permits her to de
velop, and there may be none left to
Import into the United States.

Driven out of the park by the rain
storm of Friday afternoon, the few
members of the Loyal Daughters'
class of the Christian Sunday school
who had not been frightened by the
afternoon's stormy appearance car
ried their picnic baskets over to the
spacious porch of Mrs. M. L. Stanley,
on First avenue, just above the park,
and enjoyed the remainder of the af
ternoon under shelter. Plans were

GIRL WALKS 2,MI MILKS.
Nebraska School Teacher Bound for
San Francisco.
A number of young ladies belong
ing to a Sunday school class of the
Congregational church taught by
Miss Porter returned Saturday from
a two weeks' outing near Steinman.
They had such a jolly time that they
declare nothing but the empty ap
pearance of the lardor could have
induced thetn to break camp so soon.
A trip to the top of Steinman's Peak
occupied one of the days. .Another
day was devoted to a "hiking" trip
to Siskiyou, where the campers vis
ited the school taught by Miss Mae
Beaver of this place, all returning to
iiteinman that eveuiug on Mr. Hunt-
Ogden, Utah. Nearly a month
ago Miss Delia Antnes, a winsome
school teacher of Sutton, Neb.,
walked out of her home in that town
strolled down the street and on out
Into the country. Thursday she ar
rived in Ogden, still "strolling," hav
ing walked 901 miles in 27 days, an
average of 33 miles each day. Fri
day Miss Anthes walked out of Og
den, en route to San Francisco, 1,000
miles to the westward.
Miss Anthes is not in any sense
of the word a "lady tramp." She is
simply a young school teacher of
good education and refined manners.
She enjoys walking and determined
to spend her summer a vacation in a
"hike" from Sutton to the Pacific
coast. When school opens in Sep-
i ember she will be found at her desk
in the Sutton high school.
the 27 idays she has been on the
road Miss Anthes has walked every
step of the 901 piiles between Sut
ton and Ogden. Not for a single foot
of the way has she accepted a "lift"
of enr kind, although all sorts of
chances to ride have been offered
her.
"I'm out for a walk, not a ride,"
has been her answer when Invited to
"climb in" by some rancher going in
her direction. Or, when some well
meaning hobo tells her of a soft
berth In a side-door Pullman, the
young woman smiles and thanks him
with a shake of her head.
Miss Anthes . traveling outfit is
unique. It consists of an automatic
pistol and a toothbrush. She takes
Just enough money along with her
to pay her "walking" expenses.
However, she has letters of credit
which she can use in an emergency.
Her extra clothing she sends on
ahead by express and catches up with
the trunk every few days.
London. The atrocities commit
ted in the "Putumayo rubber district
in Peru, which universally have been
characterized here as surpassing in
horror any charged to the rubber col
lectors of the Congo, apparently will
be kept in the limelight unless some-
jthing is done to punish the perpetra
tors and to bring about the assurance
that there will be no repetition.
Questions were launched at the
British foreign office in the house
of commons and from the replies it
was apparent the foreign office ex
pects to take a subordinate place to
the state department at Washington
in bringing Peru to book.
"It is clear, I think," said Francis
D. Aeiand, parliamentary secretary
for foreign affairs, "that the United
States has a better opportunity of
getting things done than any other
government interested." ""'
Acland also referred to the ques
tion raised by the United States gov
ernment as to whether Peru is a suit
able state to have control of a dis
trict like the Putumayo, or whether
that government should not be forc
ibly dispossessed of it; and he prom
ised that "his majesty's government
will do everything it possibly can to
help any action the United States
may take.
Aciana said the rubber company
was now In liquidation, but that the
government would be delighted if
any of its directors could be made
amenable to English law.

HANGS FEET OUT WINDOW.
Cottage Grove Man Suffers Injury to
Memlrers.
Cottage Grove, Ore. Riding with
his feet out of the window of the car
on which he was a passenger. Wil
liam andess was the victim of a
peculiar accident when his feet col
lided with some object beside the
track, presumably a post of some
kind. The accident occurred while
Landess was returning from Port
land, where he attended the Elks'
convention. As the train pulled into
Salem some object beside the track,
a post or possibly a truck of trunks,
caught his feet, jamming them
against the framework of the car,
inflicting painful injuries. At first
he thought one leg was broken, but
later developments proved that slich
was not the case. He had to be car
ried from the train to his home, but
is able to get around on crutches.
