the affair to the state board of health
and an investigation will be made.
Brooks' family lives on the line be
tween Multnomah and Wsshlngton coun
ties. No report of the measles was
made at the county health office here.
That the same is true of Washington
oounty Is deduced from the fact that the
place was not quarantined. No report
of the woman's death was made in Malt
nomah county, though it may have been
made In Washington county. Reports of
deaths In the various counties do not
have to be filed with the state board for
some time after death, usually on the
10th day of the month following the
death.' No report of Mrs. Brooks' death
has reached the state Board.
The law provides that the failure of
a physician, the head of a family, or any
other person attending anybody suffer
ing from an infectious or contagious
disease, to report the same to the county
health office, if proved in court, shall
constitute a misdemeanor and be made
punishable by a fine of not less than
$10 nor more than $100. An Incomplete

list gives about 70 cases of contagious
disease in the county in the last three
months, including smallpox, chlckenpox,
scarlet fever, diphtheria and measles.
The authorities are satisfied that many
cases or measles have not been reported.
and say that their efforts at stamping
out the disease have been accordingly
handicapped. It Is thought the number
of contagious cases mentioned would
have been lessened by half if prompt re
ports had been made, and in the future
all violators of the law will te prose
cuted. The person reporting the Brooks
case to the health office said Dr. Link

"We have -no idea of abolishing our
dining room In Portland or any other
city, and the rumor that we did has no
foundation In fact," said John I. Sabln,
president of the Pacific States Telephone
& Telegraph company,' prior to his de
parture for San Francisco,
"We have found that the system of
furnishing, our central girls with all
they eat at the lunch hour is the most
popular thing ever Introduced Into the
telephone business, and we propose to
continue it as long as the girls want It
Ours Is the. only company In the world
that provides lunch for Its operators
on such' an elaborate' scale; others fur
nish the dining room and perhaps some
articles for lunch, but .we provide every
thing. 1 have heard that some one had
started the rumor that we Intended dis
continuing the service, but this Is un
true:" ,
"How do you find conditions In the
northwest?" was asked. y
"Very encouraging," replied , Mr.
Sabln. "Everything is prosperous. We
are at - peace with the world and our
lines are being extended as rapidly at
the growth of the country demands."
Jn answer to a question, Mr. Sabln
stated there are no immediate Improve
ments contemplated for the Portland ser
vice, except that the rapid .Increase In
the city's population demands the In
stalling of large numbers of telephones
in all sections.
"How did the big strike of linemen
along the coast effect business 7" was
asked.
"It merely delayed our extensions, and
Impeded Improvements." replied Mr.
Sabln. "But now we have no trouble
anywhere on our lines, and things are
In fine condition. I have found pros
perity abounding all along the toute,
and Portland especially 14 forging ahead
splendidly. In Seattle, Spokane and Ta
coma the same conditions prevail."
President Sabin, accompanied by E. J.
Ztnner, auditor of the Pacific States
company, and J. P. Robinson, trafflo
manager, left on the night train for San
Francisco, having completed the tour
of the northwest
At the meeting held In the company's
office here yesterday afternoon the fol
lowing directors were elected: E. P.
Fish, also president of the Bell Tele
phone company of Boston; John I.
Sabin, San Francisco; Louis Glass. San

SMASH A GARIBALD?
SMASH A DA ST. PAT!"
His name is Antonio Perocchi. His 1
occupation is selling small bisque
statues, which he carries in a basket
This son of Italy entered Arata's saloon,
104 Third street, and began crying bis
wares.
"A-a-h, gentlemen! Buya da blska
stat'. Gotta da stat' of da fina da man.
Buya da Parnell, da Abraham Lino' or
da Georga da Wash'. Looka at Napo
leon greata da man I Seea da Garlbald',
who sava his countree!"
Three men were lined up at the bar.
Including one of Hibernian ancestry. At
the name of Garibaldi the last suddenly
turned and inquired the price of the
Italian patriot's statue.
"Two na half cheapa."
The Irishman handed over the money,
then held the miniature figure before
him, addressing it with the solemnity
of tone and expression he would have
employed if It had been a human being,
"So you're the mon that fought the
pope? Well, Garibaldi, you should be
ashamed of ' yoursllf sure, I said
ashamed or yoursiir, y
ashamed of yoursllf, you blitherln' little
blatherskite! ? An' it's you that fought
.- the pope an' caused all the thrubble, is
it? I'll fix you!'
With these words the loyal' Irishman
smashed the figure on the floor and
ground it beneath his heel. The Italian
vender stood In amazement while the
monologue was going on, but when he
saw the miniature of the patriot of his
country thus maltreated his anger knew
no bounds.
"Whata for?" he loudly demanded.
"Whata for you smasha da greata Garl
bald' da man who sava his countree?"
"Frlnd," slowly answered the son of
Erin, "that is the mon who fought the
pope of Rome."
"I la! Garlbald' greata. da man,
greata da patriot, sava his countree,
Smasha da Garlbald'? Smasha da St
Pat!" And, suiting the action to the
word, he caught the figure of the saint
from his basket, and, breaking it upon
the floor, executed a ghost dance on the
pieces. But he. was not satisfied with
that.
"Smasha da Garlbald'? Smasha da
Georga da Wash'!
"Smasha da Garlbald'? Smasha da
Parnell!
"Smasha da Garlbald'? Smasha da

St. Louts, Mo., Feb. 19. The roads
which will control the Joint validating
ticket offices in St. Louis during the
world's, fair this summer are the Penn
sylvania, Big Four. St. Louis & San
Francisco, Missouri Pacific, Louisville &
Nashville, and Chicago & Alton. It is
proposed to establish five or six such
offices and have a central telephone bu
reau, which will be connected with the
Validating headquarters of the St. Louis
lines. The officers of the various lines
entering St Louis -are inclined to shut
down completely on "deadhead" travel
during the exposition period. It is
pointed out by the railroads that they
will have all the passenger tratno tney
can handle during the fair, and that it is
not reasonable to ask for. free transpor
tation when tire rates will be as low as
are anticipated. The question will be
definitely settled by a special committee
which Is to meet here next week.

Frederickton, N. B-, Feb. 11 Senator
Wark, the oldest member of the Canadian
parliament celebrated Ms 100th, birth
day today, having been born February
19, 1804. Despite his great age tne
senator is still in the full possession of
his mental faculties, and enjoys fair
bodily health. For several days he has
been receiving congratulatory letters and
messages from many parts of 'the Domin
ion. All the healing balsamic virtues of
the Norway ptne are concentrated In lir.
Wood's. Norway. Pine Syrup. Nature's
own remedy for cougba and colds.
Shrill notes of foghorns are now
heard up and down the waterfront,
very steamer on the river having . been
equipped with an ear-piercing trumpet
during the past few days. To test
the noise-producing properties of their
toy-like possessions. ' the officers and
crews have put In their spare moments
tooting indifferent refrains, keeping
time to the gentle waves that sweep the
rocking crafts.
' "It -is all darned foolishness," said
Captain Graham of the. Oregon City
Transportation company's line, "for the
government to require us to carry such
toys."
Then he took another toot and con
tinued: "Talk about mosio having
charms to soothe the savage - beast.
Thia would drive the . wild men of
Borneo to hard drink. It would strike'
terror to their hearts. Armed with
horns of this kind a. dozen Japs could
stampede an entire regiment of Rus
sians.". "I wonder if central ever heard a voice
like this," remarked a first mate as he
took down the receiver and began to
blow. "That will eoarei her out of" a
year's growth," he concluded. , "I'll bet
ah is screamln yet."
. Congress passed a law during the
present session compelling all the steam
vessels plying in American waters to
carry- foghorns. . Inspectors Edwards
and Fuller are enforcing the law, and all
the steamers now have horns. They
are common tin arrangements, only
costing , about 75 cents each at Retail.
The steamboat men say they ar not
needed, but owing to the small sum for
which they can be procured it was not
thought worth while to test the con
stitutionality of the law.
The captains say that the boat
whistles answer the purpose for which
the horns are intended and the latter
will never be needed. They believe it
was the Intention of the legtalatbra to
make it compulsory for only sailing
vessels to carry fog horns, but In the
rush a mistake was made and steamers
were included In the list.
"But what's the difference," philo
sophically declared one of the steam
boat m?n. "These little toys may come
In bandy sometime. They will be all
right to amuse the children who are
taking trips with us.
"Who ever saw a steamboat with
horns?" chimed in another. "It is not
natural, and what is not natural is not
right I think the constitutionality of
this law ought to be tested. It Is a
blasted outrage."
ures, each of which furnished part of
the pedestal of patriotism constructed
beneath his feet, the Italian vender
threw his basket into a corner and the
money he had obtained for. Garibaldi's
statuette on the floor.
With head erect and shoulders thrown
back he marched from the saloon minus
figures, basket and money. For two sec
onds after his departure a pin could
have been heard to drop. Then one of
the bystanders drew a deep breath.
"Well, well!" he remarked, "when one
o' ' them fellers throws money away I
guess he's Interested, all right."
OPERATIONS A FAD.
Fnbllo Gradually Awakens to the Tact
The latest fad in operations has Jbeen
the appendicitis fad; before that the fad
for rectal operations (piles, etc) held
sway. Hundreds of patients were fright
ened and hurried into nospltais, oper
ated upon and robbed of their last dol
lar, when the trouble was a simple case
of hemorrhoids or piles only, easily
cured at home with a simple remedy
costing but fifty cents a box.
"I procured one fifty-cent box of Pyr
amid Pile Cure of my druggist with the
intention of buying a larger box later,
but was happily surprised when I found
that I was cured, and still have six
pyramids' left out of the first and only
box. I have not had the least sign of
piles since I used this one box, which
has been about two months; previous
to using Pyramid Pile Cure I had the
worst kind of bleeding and protruding
plies for over thirty-one years, and no
one knows, except those who have had
the piles, the pain and misery I suf
fered.
"I am a poor man. but have often said
I would give a fortune, ir I had it, to
be cured of the plies, and now I have
been cured for fifty cents. I should be
very ungrateful if I did not thank you
and give you every privilege to use my
name and this letter, when. I know there
are so many who suffer as I did." J. A.
Welsmlller, . 1100 Bladenaburg Road,
