Another dramatlo acene waa witnessed In the state circuit court before John B. Cleland, the presiding- Judtfe, this morn ing, when Attorney W. T. Vaughan made a speech In his own defense, explaining at length hla connection -with the case of O. F. Ekroth, charged with assault ing 11-year-old Ldixie Lehmer. At the conclusion of his explanation Attornoy Sanderson Reed rose and walked from the courtroom, turning to aay as he did so: : . .... -- "I might mors that a lawyer be ap pointed to take care of Mr. Vaugkan'a honor, but I will not, your honor." Vaughan protested that the remark waa unjustified, when Judge Cleland put an end to the unpleasant situation by sternly declaring he would have no more bickering, and that the language employed was not campatible with the dignity of a court The matter was brought up by Dis trict Attorney Manning, who said he would like to make It clear that in one way, at least Vaughan had been mis represented. Manning said he had prom ised Vaughan not to file any informa tion against Ekroth until the first day of the March term. In order to give Vaughan, who waa then ill, time to re cuperate and get the case well in hand. Arthur C Spencer, the assistant prose cuting attorney, he added, waa Ignorant of thia fact, and went ahead with the prosecution. ' Attorney Reed asked for time to look Into the case further. The Intention was to set It for March 7. but It will prob ably come up later. Then It waa that Vaughan rose and. addressed the court: "You have heard what Mr. Manning has had to aay," he remarked. "All I wish to aay la, that I have taken Ek roth's money and am willing to go ahead and defend him. I think I am compe tent to do it Sickness has caused all thia trouble. My honor is at stake in tbla matter. I am placed In a peculiar position because my client Informs me now that he does not desire me to de fend him. J learn that Mr. Reed went to him In hla cell and conferred with him while I was acting as hla counsel without letting me know anything about it If he had approached me I should have been perfectly- willing to take him in aa associate counsel In the case. As ft la now, I naturally look on matters differently aa regards associating with him." It was at thia juncture that Reed made his sarcastic: remark relative to having a lawyer appointed to take care of Vaughan'a honor, leading to the lat ter'a protest and the dictum of the court Reed will act alone as Ekreth's counsel, and Vaughan states that after deducting a reasonable amount- for hla trouble he will refund Ekroth the rest .1.

Y., of tuberculosis. Bhe had been ill for the past six months and death came at t:80 o'clock last night Colonel Crooks, sec retary to Mr. Mohler, received word of her death this morning. President and Mrs. Mohler and Miss Marie Mohler aro at Saranao Lake. The body will be taken to Cedar Rapids, la., Mrs. Moh ler'a birthplace, for Internment The funeral is expected to take place Sun day. The Portland Chamber of com merce and the board of trade have sent messages of condolence. Miss Ruth Mohler was II years of age and was born In 6t. Paul, Minn. She came to Portland seven years ago when Mr. Mohler accepted the position of president of the Oregon Railroad A Navigation company, and resided In this city a year. Mrs. Mohler and her two daughters went to Virginia on account of the mother's health - and the girls were, educated In , eastern ; , schools. Afterwards they. went abroad, returning last summer. Shortly after. Ruth Moh ler waa taken sick and upon advice of physicians the family went to Saranao Lake. Since than-Mr. Mohler made fre quent trips east to be near his daughter. She steadily declined In health and three weeks ago the father left Port land and was with her almost con stantly until the hour of her death. During her brief residence In Port land Miss Mohler ; made many friends. Bald an acquaintance - this morning "Ruth Mohler waa a typical American gtrL She was alwaya jojly and rich and poor alike round m her a warm and sym pathetic friend." It is not known when Mr. Mohler will return to Portland. Mrs. Mohler ' and her daughter, Marie, will remain In the east MARCH. DUST. POETS AND EQUINOXES Weather permitting, March , will open a SI days' engagement in Portland next Tuesday, There are many unpleasant features about the month. One is that the oldest inhabitant will be sure , to spring something about March coming in like a Hon and going out like a lamb, or vice versa. Another is that some-, body will be talking about March; dust "worth a king's ransom," until his hear ers take hlrn, surreptitiously to the near est dust heap , and change his views. Still another la the discussion of equi noctial storms .and the man who ex plains that March 22 Is precisely one minute and 27 seconds longer than March tl. March, too, is the first official month of spring. . . Spring naturally suggests poets and young men's fancies and a lot of other tbinga that grow tedious with annual repetition. However, these things are vouchsafed us doubtless for the Deuer cultivation oi the grace of patience. To lay March dust In Portland there is usually a trifle above five Inches of rain, but It has been double that and then three Inches besides. That waa back In 1873. In 1887 three inches of snow reii. it rains usually IS days In the month and la clear six daya. Aa a rule March 17 la the date of the de parture of the last kUling frost, al though froat hu onmk lot. m. 9. The mean temperature of March wouia oo consiaerea bland in almost any city. It averagea 47 and never has fallen below 40 on the average, although once It went to 20 degrees, and onct 79 degrees above tero. . . LAWYERS TO FOLLOW mi's HEARSE The members of the Multnomah Coun ty Bar association will march ' as a body in the procession . to the .grave when the funeral of Charles McGinn, Jr., is held In this city next Monday; A committee of five will be appointed 'to draw up resolutions of respect to Mc Ginn's memory and of condolence to his relatives., , The association met In department 1 ot the state circuit court at 9:80 o'clock this morning, all the members of the court being present and Judge John B. Cleland presiding. Attorney Lelter waa selected aa secretary. On motion of Attorney W. D. Fenton It was concluded to appoint a committee for the purpose CASTOR I A , For Infants and Children. .

It Was SUS-ffeateil bv Aftnm.n ft m Paxten . that the association follow' Its usual custom and attend the funeral in a body. After a brief discussion it was aeciaea that such should be done.

As the exact hour of the funeral was not known Judge Cleland said he would notify the members through the news papers at . what hour the association will assemble in department 1 of the iais circuit court next Monday morn ing. , . . , . DUATZD BY A WASKOTTT. The San Francisco train f the South em Pacific. No. 18, arrived in -two sec tions today, the first section arriving at 9:60 a. m., the second at 4 p. m. The delay was caused by a wVshout on the Sacramento division in northern Cal lfornls, The washout was not in the district recently bothered by land slides and the Interruption to traffic according to the superintendent's office, ia only temporary. ;." . . The outcome of the perplexing situa tion which has been brought about by the aupreme court decision In the North ern Pacific "overlap" land case, wherein between." 800 and -400 settlers are left without? title' to their homes, in Clarke and Cowllti counties,' ln Washington, la shrouded In uncertainty. It -Is; how ever probable that ithe Wilson bill will bo 'pressed into service to adjust the differences,'''''.. .-.'! :. ' - ' ... ' This bill - was enacted for conditions of this - nature,: and 'provides that In case of 'land disputes 'between the set tler and the railroads, or the railroads and the. arovernment wherein the latter has" taken - part of .the land grant into public reserves1 or given it to the 'set tlers, ' that ' the Tall road t company can take lieu land in place of It- or that the eettler also has this privilege. Review of the Case. Judge J. A. Munday., who in conjunc tion with the government, fought the cases for the -settlers for. a- period of nearly lo years, and was the attorney for the' Settlers' association, which ha a membership sof about -400,- in speaking of the .case said:'' . r ... , The decision of the Bupreme court of the United - States will work a great hardship on-those that-come under the; power ' of - the edict ' The decision is, however, final and by. it they must abide. It will be a great blow to set tlers that have put In years of toll on land- and secured title which' they con sidered absolute,' to ' now have to buy from the railroad company the land on which they live. 'The solution will prob ably be under the provisions of the Wil son bllL The settlers have the power to elect whether' they desire to 'retain the land on which they have settled, and to pay, the railroad company some "ap praised price and thus save their Im provements, or to. take lieu land instead and abandon the old homesteads. If It is -satisfactory to the railroad they can take a tract of land In lieu of that which Is in .dispute,, and la that event the settler will, retain his own without any additional cost, ' Government Not to Blame. "It will be the duty of the officials of the Vancouver land ' office to take the preliminary steps for this arrangement and send to the settlers a copy of the law and instructions; how to; proceed. All ' those that . have made application for' filing are Included with those that have secured Clings or patents.. ' :' "The - government la in no way to blame for ' the-hardship that-has been brought upon, the settlers. It cannot give any indemnity to either the settler -orhellFoad-eompany-itls-theaov ereign power ana no damage suit can. oe brought against' it - The action it took was In accordance ,tor the' laws' and the Judgment of the officials and the rulings of the courts, and everything was in ac cordance ' wlth: the Jurisdiction of - the situation at the time.' Speculation is rife among those Inter ested In the solution of the controversy.' Some of the squatters who have located on the railroad lands,-and stripped it of valuable timber, are resting uneasy. In the fear- that the corporation, will bring civil or- criminal ' action against them for talcing that to which they re not entitled. In aome of the cases the aet 'tlera ' have made themselves . particu larly obnoxious in their attitude to the company,: when it Issued orders for va cation of the lands, but did not have a sufficient title' to enforce their demands. Now that the company- has been granted absolute ( title, and has - the whip hand. It is In a position to make all kinds of trouble to those that formerly opposed them.

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE. Has it ever been your unhappy lot to be told by your physician that you must go to a hospital and' submit to an opera tion? If ao, you remember with what dread ' and Shrinking " you awaited the day when you must endure the knife. The present-day surgeon appears to be possessed by a mania for operating, es pecially in cases, of hemorrhoids -or piles, and while the greater number ot the profession do not recommend this 'last resort" unless they honestly balleve. it necessary, the fact ' remains that much needless operating is done, and the pa tient put to much expense and. suffering for what? To obtain a possible temporary relief; these words are used advisedly, because in, nine cases out of ten the affliction returns and the patient la Just where be started from. Oftentimes he could be oured much more simply and easily by the use of such a remedy as the Pyra mid Pile Cure; this baa coma to be rec ognised as the best remedy on' the mar ket for the painful disease named, and the druggists now sell more of it than all other pile remedies combined, , The writer perlenaliy Knows peopll who were afflicted with the worst form of bleeding and protruding piles and who were permanently cured by the uie of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every one of these cases the attending physician liad assured the sufferer ' that only by an operation oould he rid himself of the disease; ao much for the Infallibility of the doctors. - 'v ; This remedy, which la sold by all drug, glsta at the low price of 60 cents, is In suppository form, ia applied directly to the parts affected, and performs lta work quietly and painlessly. The Pyra mid Drug company, Marshall, Mich., will mail free to any address a book telling 'all abdut piles or hemorrhoids, their cause and Cure. j A , suggestion is offered that if the reader is- afflicted, or knows anyone who is. this book be sent for, as it will be found invaluable. , .Today and .
