NEAR-VICTIM OF LAW VIOLATION WAS ORIGINATOR OF THAT LAW George L. Baker of the Baker the atre, is the originator of the rlght-of-v ay ordinance pertaining to automobll Ists. The law went Into effect No vember 1. Mr. Baker returned from Denver Just a few days ago. Last night the right-of-way ordinance was violated. As a result, in Just this particular Instance, the originator of the law came mighty near being a victim of the disregarded rules. It was at the corner of Fifth and Morrison streets. Tho time was about 10:30 o'clock. Mr. Baker started across the street. Whiz, toot-toot, and biff. That Is, almOBt biff. An automobillxt, evidently an enthusiast, came along. He was going south in Fifth street nnd was steering to turn south Into Mor rison. And the chauffeur made the turn all right but it was not according to law. Tho driver cut off nearly all the corner. It was not a slow, long turn as is called for by Mr. Baker s ordinance. And in the cut Mr. Baker almost went under the wheels of the heavy touring car. "Look out," yelled the machine driv er. This after he had passed the the atrical manager and was gone. "Are you coming back?" shouted Mr. Baker, but without avail. The ma chine, driver and all were out of sight. Then Mr. Baker took his troubles to a policeman standing near the poat office. But the officer of the law had never heard of such an ordinance per taining to tin! right of way. So Mr. Baker was around town to day looking for a number on a certain machine. But he Isn't exactly sure just what license number he Is search ing for.

CITY HALL EMPLOYES SEE MANY CURIOUS THINGS, BUT NOT THESE Who ever heard of a coal-black nanny goat? Who ever heard of a billy kid marked much like a striped-faced skunk? Nobody around the city hall. City Auditor Barbur received a letter from Barnett Y. Roe of Gaston, Oregon, In which the man from the town with a polite name offered to give to the city two curiosities from his Koat herd. One he said was a black nanny goat and the other was a billy kid, black and marked much like a striped-faced skunk. Mr. Barbur asked all the employes of his office whether they hnri ever heard of a black goat before. They nil said Don't Let Your Piles Grow Every Hemorrhoidal Ulcer Is a Fer tile Field for Cancer and Other Deadly Diseases. TRTAT. PACKAGE rXZB. Constipation unchecked brings In flammation, inflammation begets piles and piles too often superinduce tumors of malignant nature. Piles (or hemorrhoids) rarely kill, but they cause more agony In a few minutes than much more serious troubles. They are easy to cure If you go at It right. An operation with the knife Is dan gerous, agonizing, and rarely a perma nent success. There Is Just one way to be cured one sure way, painlessly and privately and that Is with Jfyramld Pile Cure. ye mail a free trial package to all who write. It will give you Instant relief, and start you well on the way to ar perfect "cure. Then you can get a full-sized box from any druggist for 60 cents, and often one box cures.

His reply was lost in u gust of sneezes. Roe wants the goats placed In the City park, where they can be seen by the' thousands of visitors who attend the park In the summer months to gaze at the wild flowers, wild animals and other attractions offered by the city for the entertainment of the curious. Just what attraction two goals, even two black goats, would have for the multi tude Is outside the pale of Mr. Barbur's knowledge, although he will turn Roe's letter over to tie par Doara lor iinaj disposal. SEWER BREAKS UNDER WEIGHT OF FILL i City Engineer D. V. Taylor has In vestigated the sewer trouble at Van couver avenue, about which there has been complaint, and found the sewer broften by the fill which is being thrown in the gulch at this point. Mr. Tavlor stated today tnat ne would notify the contractor In charge of the fill and have the work completed so the sewer could be mended and the refuse carried to the river Instead of dumping Into the gulch. Health authorities vis ited the scene yesterday and stated that the emptying of the sewer into the gulch has not yet become a nuisance, but urged that the sewer be rebuilt across the gulch as soon as possible. mg Realty transfers filed for record yes terday were considerably more than double the valuo of those of the day before, reaching the satisfactory total of $58,149. or nearly $10,000 more than the normal dally average.

Dr. Miller of 530 Montgomery street notified the authorities last night that a man of evil appearance was prowling about the yard at 10:30. p. m.
