True to the tradition of Mother Goose, he drifted Into the Juvenile court yesterday without his supper. Nor had he had breakfast" or dinner. For 80 hours or more l,e had come no closer to a meal than to catch the whiff of cheap restaurant grub aa he passed along the street Tommy Tucker, aa he came Into the Juvenile court, waa a pathetic figure. Pressed In a Jumper suit and a tattered, coat four sizes too big, he was" hobbling" on a broomstick. For he had run a sliver in his foot and cou'd not walk without assistance. Over all w'as a lib eral coating of dirt, for Tommy had not been swimming lately, and there has been no rain. Chief Probation Officer Hadley took Tommy to a restaurant first of all. Here the boy's stomach was filled. Later ho was sent to the detention home, where he will be made acquainted with soap, nnd water, the silver will be extracted from the foot, a new suit sup- piled, ana tie will regularly attend to his supper auries. Tommy's father lives on Hood street hut makes only a meager living, works hard, and has little time to care for the i hoy. Tho mother of the boy died two years ago, and ne has nad little atten tion since. Now he will go to school and society will try to make up for Us past neglect. AUTOMOBILE VICTIM LIES 111 HOSPITAL 3Tr. J. 31nller. Whose Hus band Was Fatally In jured, 3Iay Recover. (Special Dlpitch to The Journal.! Baker City, Or., July IS. Mrs. J. Muller. who was seriously Injured In the automobile accident several miles southeast of Baker City last evenlnjr, at which time her husband was killed. ! is resting very well in St. Elixabeth's j hospital today. The city Is in sorrow i over what Is one of the saddest acci dents recorded in its history. Mr. and Mrs. Muller and Harry Big ham had started for Boise in a large touring car belonging to Mr. Muller, to visit friends, and while they were coasting down a mountain side at Unity the machine struck a culvert, where dirt had been wasned out bv recent rains, and turned over twice, pinning Mr. Mul ler to the ground, the step of the ma chine breaking his neck. Mrs. Muller waa also caught under the machine, but Mr. Hicham Jumped and escaped unin jured. All were brought to Baker Cltv last evening. J. Muller was proprietor of the Kentucky liquor store In this city, and one of the strongest and most sub stantial business men here. -making Captain O. a Hunt, of the Thirteenth infantry, who has Just returned from the Philippines, arrived at the Hotel Portland on his way to West Point where he la to be stationed as an in structor. Captain Hunt la accompanied by his family. Captain Hunt ;.as served six years all told in the Islands at Intervals of two years each term. "I find that the majority of the peo ple In the st-tes have no conception of the great tracts of lands which no to make up the Philippine islands," Cap tain Hunt said this morning "There VALUABLE KLAMATH KANCH IS SOLD are 3.100 Islands, all told. I think4 that I night for the east the Spaniards claim went to the United States . when our government took charge. Many of these, however, are hardly more than mere great masses of rock which protrude from the waters. "Luzon, on which Manila is located. Is the largest Island. Its area Is greater than that of the state of California. Then there are the Islands of Mindanao, j Panay Negro3, Samar and Leyte In the order named. They are the largest.

AND A PERFORATED TANK SECURES OILED ROAD IN LINNTON (Special Dispatch to The Journal. Klamath Falls. Or., July 18 The fin est ranch in Wood river valley, com' prising 720 acres, was sold this week to Major C. E. Worden of this city. The price paid was $25 per acre. The farm is entirely under irrigation from the private system owned by Wood river ranchers, mere is a large artesian well on the place, and the house Is piped with water. The automobile road now being con structed by E. H. Harriman from Peli can bay to Crater lake passes this ranch. The deal la considered one of the most Important ever effected In this section. you a present of ten dollars That is exactly what thJs 25 per cent' discount sale of the Columbia Tailors amounts to. Let us figure it out for you. If you started out to buy a suit of clothes and were willing to pay $40 for it, you would be quite sur prised, would you not, to wander into the Columbia Woolen Mills shop and be able to pick out a $40 suit on sale for $30? It's the truth, however. The same thing is true of every suit we have. No matter what the original price was, and you know they were all low enough, tlje suit goes to you, if you want it, for just THREE-FOURTHS what it ought to sell' for. And Columbia Prices have always been from $20 to $40. Yo u know that. Think of what such a cut means to a mer chant with a stock worth tens of thous ands of dollars. If you are going to take in the Streetcar Men's Outing at The Oaks buy a ticket from the conductor, read the coupon, bring it into this shop and you will secure even lower prices and big ger discounts than 25 per cent. You can save enough on one of these coupons to buy 100 tickets to help the boys out. And, mind you, Co lumbia Tailors will sell no suits at the coupon prices un less the coupon is pre sented at the time the suit is ordered. If this will not get your order for a suit of clothes, you cannot want one very badly. mm 11 ff CI Grant Phegley, Mgr., Seventh and Stark Streets Have You Anything for Sale? List it with L. L.

While John D. didn't come out to sprinkle any of the oil. he assisted nevertheless John donated the oil. And there are several miles of the oiled thoroughfare all the way from Claremont to Llnnton. This stretch In tho road has been oiled for obvious rea sons, and particularly because Portland mtomoblllsts were always hlklntr out that way and kicking up irreat clouds of dust. So the Llnnton people decided to oil up a bit. An om tanK also a nrt of John I). was brought into play. The tank was placed on wheels. The tank was punc tured perforated. In other words. Then the oil John D.'s was poured in thej tanK. norses were nucnea 10 me wneeis. They moved. The oil ran. Main street was soon sprinkled. The Improvements cost Llnnton people but $35. Several wegks ago a delega tion of Llnnton citizens came to Port land for the purpose of securing a reg ular oil sprinkler. The Porllanders wanted something like $160 for the Job. The Llnntonites said ha. ha, ha, lust like that, and went back to the little village by the river. Then they set their Ingenious brains to work. The tank, wheels and holes, and the nice, dustless avenue, are the result. JOYCE SUES FOR HIS MONEY LOST IX HOTEL Although the municipal court de cided that William O.
