Johnson, a logger employed in a logging camp on the Tacoma Eastern railroad, was crushed to death yesterday morning by the falling limb of a tree. The accident, as near ar can be learned, occurred In one of the camps a few miles from Tacoma about two hours after the logging crews had gone to work. Johnson was with a gang cutting down one of a series of big trees. When the tree " had been cut through sufficiently the men rushed from the scene. All succeeded in get ting clear with the exception, of John son, who was caught by one of the limbs of tbe falling tree. The limb caught the logger as he was running and .crushed him to earth. After the tree had fallen the other loggers rushed to the scene and extri cated the injured man from under the limb of the tree as quickly as possible. It was several minutes before John son was dragged from his position, mangled and torn almost beyond reo said Dr. Parkin, "and the method of selecting the first scholars may not be good for all time." The examination papers are about on a grade with those used In the en- j trance test at Harvard exqept that a knowledge of Greek is required. "America Is a world power, and she now must have men with world knowl edge to represent her abroad. Ox ford is the place where those men wil get that training that will flit them to stand with the statesmen of other great countries." Thorough Investigation of the condi tion of the dairies supplying Portland with milk and thorough analysis of the milk have been ordered by the state board of health, and thus the first step in the much-mooted crusade has been taken. What the result will be, no prophet has ventured to pre dict, but an almighty shaking up Is possible In the milk business of Ore gon ir the state board rigorously pushes through the ranks of the milk men in search of divers classes and varitles of bacteria, and finds the little disease producers In the alarming numbers they are alleged to exist For the past three days an investi gation, or analysis, of several samples Champion Experisnoss Trouble In Get ting Down to tht Limit San Francisco, March ItThis wss practically tht Inst day of training of Young Corbett and Jimmy .Brltt for their meeting tomorrow night The California", has hot had any trouble In muking the required ISO pounds, so his exercise today was of the lightest variety.

AMELIA IN DANGER. Town Directly in Path of Roaring Fire on Prairie. , . Lincoln, Neb., March 24. A dispatch from Norfolk says the town was dark at noon today from an Immense cloud of smoke which came from the prairie fires west of here. Many persons rushed to their cyclone cellars. Many houses and barns near Atchison were destroyed. The blaze from Simmons ran SO miles. The fire which threat ened Newport has taken another track and is heading for the town of Amelia, which it is believed will be destroyed. HAVE YOU SEEN OUR WINDOWS?

In a measure It may decide the fate of the dairies. If all are enjoined from selling milk until the dairies are In what the ooard considers a satisfactory state, It will mean that Portlandera will be force! to buy toe canned and condensed a rlety of ncteal fluid. The scope of the action of the board Is almost, limitless in Oregon. After it gets tn'rough with Portland It can enforce the same procedure In other places in the state. Just where the board will stop Is now uncertain. Al most the only thing that can stop It Is the expiration of the terms of office of the members. What the board 111 'consider a model dairy has also to be determined. "It must be clean," is the watchword, and this seems to sum up the view the board takes of It Whether this means that the Interior of the dairies must shine like the proverbial Dutch house wife's pewtfr or "be clean enough for a dairy," Is a debatable question. When the board unllmbers for ac tion no quarter will be given, and the unwary, milkman whose dairy is found to contain spots of dust and other evi dences filth will probably be prose outed to the full extent of the law. "The milk we use Is not fit to drink." la, or was, the cry of the health offi cials. "It contains various degrees and shades of dirt; real Oregon dirt." the complaint goes on, and the board has made up its mind that the dirt must go. The members can't get along with both, and have decided on milk with out dirt At the meeting of the 'city and county health officers, one of the offi cials had the temerity' to state In the course of his address that dirt never yet harmed children; that infant pro digies had been known literally to eat dirt of the dirty kind, and thrive. But his view was not accepted, and the crualders are even now burnishing up hauberks, morions, helmets, breast plates, back pieces, greaves, lances and other portions of the armor they will wear when drawn up In battle array. So far the milkmen have watched the preparations, as It were, from aff, and have gone their way, vending the milk as they have done ever since the first stake was driven In Portland. Perhaps they are (content to let the Impending storm pile up and burst where It may. Perhaps they believe their milk is all right, and that It will stand any test made of it Anyway, not a word has been heard from the camp of Portland's dairymen. The mind of Pure Food Commission er J. W. Bailey Is not troubled by the doings of the state board of health, He has stated positively that he would do nothing in the matter until the board presented to him a case of lm pure milk, substantiated by absolute proof. Then he would act. ' In a day or two he and William Mc Lean, state veterinarian, will leave on a tour of the state to see that the dairies and stables are being white washed regularly. Three or four times a year, Mr. Bailey says, the dairymen of Oregon whitewash the interior of their dairies and stables, in accordance with the law. ' . The pure food commissioner so far has failed to find a single sample of milk that was not up to the require ments of the law. He claims that the milk of Oregon, particularly of Port land, is as good as an in the United States, and that the claim of impurity AST0RIAN ART PORTFOLIOS Illustrating the l.oulslnnn Pur chase Kxpositlou.
