' Tha railroad commlaalon received nu
maroua complainta. but could take the
matter no only In an informal way be
cauaa tha complaints grew out of Inter
atata commerce bualiieea. The com
mlaalon waa unable to Induce the
Northern Paclflo to change lta rule and
etne controversy went to the interatate
commerce commlaalon. The latter hue
now laaued an order forbidding a rail
road to aell tickets over another road
with which It has no agreement for in
terchange or traffic
Tha result will ba that persona de
ailing to reach Puget aound via tha
Union Paclflo and Portland ante way
from competitive territory can purchase
tickets only to Portland, unless tha Hill

Into a traffic agreement. '
while admitting that the new rule will
settle the baggage controversy, decry
that method of reaching the result aa
tending to eliminate competition, wnicn
waa apparently tha thing the Northern

ORCHARD ACTIVITY
AROUND ASHLAND
Port Jarrls. N. T.. ' Feb. 17, Thres
girls and threa young man coaated to
cether down a auartcr of a mil hill
on a cow'a back yesterday: Interpoaed
between tha ooaatera and tha cow waa
a double bob aled, but the Interesting
fact remains. .
Thera waa an , awful smash at tha
bottom of tha hill. One of tha cow'a
front hoofa waa worn off by tha ter
rific friction; her other front hpof waa
split and aha waa ahot to and hei suf
fering. Farmer Caldwtlder awears ha
will eua the coasters for the value af
hla cow; tha glrla and fellows Ueclaro
they must be recompensed for the
bruises they suffered and for their
clothes which were tor. - But so good
a Jurist aa Justice Buhfi of Tremont
Center, Sullivan ' county, says neither
suit will stand, for thYUw dots not
take cognisance of what ha calls "bo
vine Interposition." ' -
The coasters all live at Tremont
Center. Juat aa their sled started from
the hill's crest the cow slid awkwardly
on their courae from (he hill side. She
braced her forefeet and aat on her
haunchea; her back was slmost level
with the snow. She could hot halt nor
could tha sled, of course.
While the girls shrieked snd the
young men turned pale tha aled struck
the cow on her eastern extreme, for
the sled waa moving west. It ran up
the cow's back, lta forward runners
caught on her horns and. remarkable
to tell, tha aled, with lta six passengers
balanced nicely on the cow's broad
back. With ever-Increasing speed cow,
sled, girls, bays descended, when the
Incline ended the cow rolled over and
six young persons wera ahot. In tha
air as from a catapult.

Ashland. Or., Feb. 28. It la expected
that Ashland will have her principal
street paved by July 1. It was Intended
originally to construct macadam pave

street wore so Improved, but with the
Advent of spring weather, when the

arty owners have asked for an asphalt-

change.

A Thought That Saves Dollars
You may be called upon to spend Hun

in someone dear to you; spend a
thought in keeping disease away. As
the Government considers Govern
ment Inspection of such vital impor
tance as to spend vast sums of money
just to see that meat for the consumer
is healthful and sound, the consumer
should profit by. the Government's,

The city council killed tha ordinance
providing for elfht additional detec
tives to be assigned to the work or
dinarily performed by Serjeants of po
lice yesterday, on tha ground that tha
measure withdrew $5,200 out of tha
general fund' and not out of the money
apportioned to the police department
for tha year'a expenses. From expres
sions made yesterday by several coun
cllmen , a new ordinance appropriating
the money out of the police department
fund will be Introduced at the next
meeting.
Councilman Beldlng thus expressed
himself after the council meeting, say
ing he was heartily in favor of appoint
ing the new men providing for the ad
ditional force, but that he would not
vote at this time to further reduce tha
general fund. There la only 65,060
left In this fund for tha remainder of
the year and Beldlng and several others
say they do not want to reduce tha
amount at this time.
Inasmuch as thera Is likelihood the
police department will not spend all of
the appropriation aiiowea it ty tne
council this year, members say the
money for the eight new detectives
should come out of this surplus and
not out of the general fund.
Although the fact was not mentioned
in the council meeting yesterday it is
well known that the members of the
majority party in the council look with
unfriendly eyes upon any measure in
troduced by the. ways and means com
mittee. Councilman Rushlight is chair
man of the committee and is recognized
as tha leader of tha minority in tha
legislative body. It was his measure
yesterday that went down to defeat, and
It is probable the next ordinance pro- ;
vldlng for detectives will come from
some member of tha majority.

Mrs. Katherme Tmgley
Plans New Colony Off the
Coast of Sweden.
Mrs. Katherina Tlnjley, who came
Into public notice as the head of a new
Institution at Point Lorn a. Is about to
establish a school on tha Island of
Vislnrso adjoining- tha royal forest In
Sweden, according to dispatches which
have been sent from that country.
Mrs. Ting-ley will conduct tha school
for tha purpose of training; the young in
the ways of morality as taught by tha
cult of theosophy. She contends that
It is Imperative in order to qecure the
best. growth of humanity to instill Into
the young the high Ideas of the moral
code as held to in the teachings of the
osophy. During the time Mrs. Tlngley was
working for the establishment of the
school she delivered several addresses,
one in Malmo when she spoke on the
message of theosophy. In this she de
clared that man, In essence, was divine
and possessed the power of conquering
his lower nature and weaknesses once
he wss awakened to his power. She
said that theosophy had a high moral
coda and argued that any system not
possessing such a coda left open tha
gates to vice and crime.
Mrs. Tlngley touched upon tha saored
ness of marriage, tha responsibility of
narenta and the need of a broader con
ception of man's relation to other men
and to bis native country and the world.
The present condition of humanity
called for a higher Interpretation of tha
divine laws of nature and that before
happlress could be attained by men
