The letters, which Mrs. Reynolds ad

fense this morning. He testified that
he knew Mrs. Reynolds by the name of
i Delia Lang, and that she frequently re
I 'celved letters in that name. Edward

in Walla Walla when Reynolds and his
wlfo passed. Hlbbins asked:

; Abraham Thomas, the streetcar em
. ploye arrested on a charge of wlfe-
beatlng, will contest the suit for divorce
,! brought by hta wife. This morning he
m filed In the circuit court an answer to
,,her suit. In which he says that on the
; night of the alleged assault for which
hat .was arrested Mrs. Thomaa kicked
- him out of bed and beat him with a
mop,
, ... Thomas says he used only such force
as was necessary to repel his wife'B
assault, and when he forced her to stop
phe raised an outcry and had him ar-
rested. He alleges that his arrest caused
.. his wife Intense satisfaction, and that
she told some neighbors:
"This la the happiest day of my life.
I have him Just where I want him."
It Is charged In the answer that Mrs.
Thomaa whipped her two children un
meroifuily, and on several occasions
kept them locked In her room for hours

those having week tickets or'oompll
mentary. At the loweat estimate there
must have been between 11,000 and
17,000 people on tha grounds. There
were Immense crowds during the entire
day. yesterday waa Balem day and
also the day of the ft.000 trot, and
theae clrcumatancea combined to fill the
grounda. i
Nearly all placea of bualness In the
town were closed, aa were also most of
the offlcea at the atatehouae, oourt
houae, town hall and postofflce. The
weather waa the beat possible, with no
rain or cold winds, but not hot enough
to be uncomfortable. Kven In the
morning the appearance of the streets
showed that the people of Salem would
not comprise nearly all the crowd on i
the day particularly assigned to them.
I he capacity or all hotels, rooming-
houses and lodging-houses was stretched
to the limit, and still there were not
enough rooms to accommodate the
crowds. The concessions on the grounds
reaped a golden harvest and nearly
everything had aa much er ntee ixiet
ness than It could take care of.
At the entertainment In the Audi
torium in the evening to say that the
building was crowded would very poorly
express the condition. After every seat
and every Inch of standing room waa
taken more people were waiting on the
outside than were in. fully hair an
hour before the band gave the opening
number of the program all the space
was taken. Many who came too late to
obtain seats paid boys to give up their
places and the demand w,aa greater
than the supply. -The entertainment
tended more to the lighter side than on
previous evenings. The Southern quar
tet gave many songs and returned
again and again on the persistent call
ing of the crowd. The "Mantells'' gave
first-class bicycle tricks whlch met
with the warm applause of the audi
ence, besides which there were playlets,
moving pictures and songs.
While In such an audience there was
necessarily some noise of people pass
ing in and out, which made it unfavor
able for public speaking short speeches
were made which were both Instructive
and entertaining. Professor W. U.
Carlyle, dean of the Agricultural col
lege at Fort Collins, Colorado, paid a
glowing tribute to Oregon' and the of
ficials of the fair. He said that he had
visited almost every fair In the union
as a Judge of livestock and that he
could unhesitatingly say that the new
stock barns were the best that he had
ever aeen. He urged the people to
keep up the good work by compelling
Laat night a meet Inn of tha executive
board of the"Portland club waa held In
the office of Charles E. Lockwood In
the Columbia building. At that time It
was decldedto whoop It up for Roose
velt along tha lines desired by Senator
liourne. Accordingly A. A. Bailey pre
sented a resolution pledging the sup
port of the club to the aecond elective
term campaign.
Since Senator C. W. Hodson came
back from Washington where he was
entertained by Senator Bourne, he haa
been a great champion of the Bourne
doctrines and by the magic of the same
conversation, a. a. uauey, me political
ahadow of Mr. Hodson, haa eapoused the
cause. Thla la all In the game to allow
Senator Bourne to lead the Oregon dele
gation back to the Republican national
convention pledged to support Roose
velt for, the second elective term and
thereby boost Bourne stock high In ad
ministration circles.
The Republican club of Portland la
auDPOsed to be dead. It waa absorbed.
so Max Cohen and others of the United
club say. by the United club In the
early days of the late municipal cam
paign. At that time the Reaver club
and the Portland club Joined hands, o
It waa given out, and proposed to put
the "bio
yatem" into operation
throughout Multnomah county. C. 15.
Lock Wood, the secretary of the Port
land club, refuaed to be absorbed, how
ever, and held on to the books of the
old club.
Last night therefore the Portland
club apparently took upon Itserf a new
lease or tire nn jm mmji in -in van
by espousing the second elective plan
and at the same time determining to
adopt the "block system" In Its future
organisation. This Is the United club
properly slapped on the wrist. Mem
bers of the rejuvenated club contend
that It does not make much difference.
I however, aa they argue the United club
only had about it memDere anyway.

EVANS SUIT DISMISSED
IN CIRCUIT COURT
The suit of S. J. Kamlnsky as as
signee of Dr. J. S. Owens of Los
Angeles against J. Whyte Evans to col
lect $6,193 was dismissed In the circuit
court this morning. The reason given
by Attorney W. H. Fowler for the dis
missal Is that with some depositions
filed In the local circuit court are some
letters and telegrams that passed be
tween Evans and Dr. Owens which are
necessary as exhibits .at the trial of Dr.
Owens at Los Angeles September 25 on
the charge of extortion preferred by
Evans. -
The trial in the local circuit court
was set for September 24, and as the
exhibits are needed at Log Angeles the
following day, it was i necessary to dis
miss the suit In order to secure the ex
hibits. Attorney Fowler said they
would bring suit against Evans again as
soon as the criminal trial at Los
Angeles Is disposed of.
