SOPHIA OEER Mrs. Sophia Oeer died at Good Samari tan hospital at . :S0 o'clock yesterday afternoon after an illness of two months or more. Mrs. Oeer had a large 1 circle of friends throughout the state, all of whom will be shocked at the news of her death. " Mrs. Oeer waa the daughter of Adolf Wolf of Sllverton and was 33 years of age. She waa highly educated and talented In music and elocution, being a graduate of the Willamette College .of Oratory and elocution and having taken a special post graduate course in 1 the Emerson College of Oratory at ' Ronton. A pleasing entertainer and of charm ing personality. Mrs. Oeer was popular -.with all who knew Iter and was well known throughout the state. Mrs. Oeer waa married to Pearl W. Oeer of Sllverton a little more than a year ago. Mr. Oeer is manager of the Homer Davenport farm at Morris flams, : New Jersey, and Miss Wolf accompanied hr her mother went to New Tork, where the marriage was performed. Dr. Louis J. Wolf was a member of the last Peary , expedition in search of the north pole, and . the marriage of his sister was solemnised Immediately after his re turn from the north. Several months ago Mrs. Oeer be came 111 and when it was discovered :. that her condition was serious she was brought to Portland, it being her desire that she be near her old borne when she died. ' The funeral services will be held at Hoi man's chapel tomorrow afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. Evidence tba is Indisputable has come to light making it practically a certainty that the Harrlman railroad companies will proceed with their plan to drfve a tunnel under the peninsula, and provide a water grade entrance for the Union Pacific system into Port land, snd also a water level outlet for tbe extension of the Harrlman roads to Puget .sound, via the Vancouver bridge across the Columbia river. This extension will not use the Spokane, Portland A Seattle cut through the peninsula, and there will be no consol idation of the North Portland terminals of the Hill and Harrlman railroads, al though both companies may use the preaent paaaenger atatlon. The general scheme of entrance of theae lines into Portland will, It la said be in accord with the previous outline published In The Journal. By a system of "Ys" at McKenna Junc tion, the O. R.

Dr. Samuel T. Songer of Ashland was the chief witness in the George T. Myers will contest yesterday afternoon. He was called In behalf of the con testant, Mrs., Georgia Frances Stevens, who claims that her father discriminate ed against her In his will because of an insane delusion that she and Dr. Robinson, who treated Mrs. Myers In her last Illness, were responsible for the death of her mother. 1 Dr. Songer . said that when the names of Robinson and of Mrs. Stevens were mentioned in" the presence f Myers "?T ihe of his wife he became excited, saying that his home was bISKen J?J " lt w" his daughter's I-m The wtta said that from con versation with Myers en 10 and 103 ..ifiMne,! th Impression that , the wealthy canner believed Robinson and fte vens had alienated the affeo hi' .?"

Barton Plckel. who were summoned as expert witnesses by the proponents of the will and testified that a competent physician would have aiscovered tne cause or the lata! all' ment and cured it. Attorney James Qleason was on the stand for a short time. He described a conversation with Myers in which the latter lamented the death of his wife ana tamed in a raving way about the treatment she had received from Dr. Robinson. Judge Webster last evening adjourned the hearing until next week. It Is ex pected that several days will be re quired to finish the evidence and argu ment. Whichever way the case turns it Is probable that an appeal will be taken to the circuit court Building Permits. Mrs. 8. Dotson. erect dwelling;.

That efforts will be made by both the city council and the city executive board to hold down the cost of laying bard surface pavements In Portland was shown by the action of the members of the board at yesterday s meeting. Sev eral members of the street committee of the council at a meeting several days ago declared themselves in favor of limiting the price for such pavements and It Is probable that some such action will be taken along this line. The matter was brought to tho at tention of tbe board yesterday by the action of -the Warren Construction com pany in raising its bid three successive times ror the improvement or stark street With bltulltlilo pavement. Al though the third bid was $1,400 higher than the previous bid the executive board awarded the contract for $l,67f, mainly upon the request of numerous large property owners who appeared be. rore the board ana urged that the con tract be let. Whether the city will make awards on bids for bltullthlo paving in the fu ture depends largely upon a decision about to be rendered by Judge Cleland In the state circuit court. Property owners on Belmont street contested the right of the city to lay blullthlc pave ment and carried their case Into court. Judge Cleland is expected to give his decision Monday and the future course of the city jvill be governed by his opinion. The fight for cheaper hard-surface paving is not to be waged by the city against the Warren Construction com pany alone, but against the Barber As phalt company also, lt has been charged that these companies after fighting each other for years have burled the hatchet In Portland and come to an agreement on tne minimum price or their respect lvn- pavements thus making it imDOS- Bible for the city to secure competitive Dids under a certain price. Several of the councllmen have contended that Portland Days more for its street nav lng than other cities although the same Kina or pavement is used In all nlacea ana is put in Dy ino same companies, CHIC HOUGHTON PLEADS NOT GUILTY Charles .
