To Prevent Rabies, Canines
Will Be Held 4 Months in
Quarantine before Being
'. " Admitted to Islands.
' There Is what amounts practically to
. ban on the Importation of dogs Into
'the Hawaiian Islands because of the
dangers, of hydrophobia, accordln to a
notice received this morning at the local
'. Office At the American-Hawaiian Steam
shin company, and hereafter when
'-'"Tlf" goes to Honolulu he will have
' to stay In quarantine for four months.
This regulation has been made to pre
-lnt' the Introduction of rabies Into
.-' the Islands.
i""""-. "In order to prevent the Introduction
of rabies or hydrophobia Into the terrl
' tory of Hawaii," says the notice, "all
(Jogs Intended for importation Into the
territory will be subjected to quarsn
'tine for at least four months at. the
' owner's eipense.
"In accordance with the regulations
i promulgate by the board of agriculture
'' 'and forestry of the territory of Hawaii
, dogs will be admitted through the port

Pr. Ella K. Dearborn, of S00 Union
avenue, has the distinction of owning
one of the most unique collections of
souvenir spoons In the United States.
The collection Is valued at J1S00, If
one had to purchase it outright, but the
doctor would not sell tho collection for
any amount. Dr. Dearborn has been
collecting the spoons for Fix years and

66ii spoons without a ningio duplicate.
The spoons are arrayed in n large
oak cabinet which was built by her hus

against burglars tho case is equipped
with a largo electric nlarm. The cabi
net Is opened only when the doctor Is

one comeM to the house for the express
purpose of viewing the spoons.
The most costly spoon from a money
standpoint is made af gold and cost
$1. The cheapest spoon Is made- of
wood and cost 2ft cents, yet it Is valued
very highly by Dr. Doabrorn.
One 172 Tears Old.
Probably the oldest spoon In the col
lection is 172 years old. The doctor
has a spoon that at one time was owned
by Napoleon and another that was once
in the possession of President Arthur's
father. Among the highly valued spoons
Is a duplicate of tho anointing spoon,
the original :of which was used In thu
coronation ceremony of King George.
The spoon is an exact copy except that
it Is minus the precious stones.
A great many of the spoons were

Socialist .Administration Tries
to 'Sell Ice Near Cost Price
and Courts Issue Injunction
(Cnltrd Prein I-M1 Wlr.)
Hchcneotady, N. Y., July 15. "Cheap
I ice for the poor" became the war cry
'of the socialist administration of
fchenectady today. The whole city is
stirred by the attempt of the organized
Ice drnlers to prevent Mayor Dunn and
his officers from carrying out their
plans. ,
The administration stored a lot of Ice
last winter as part of Its promise to
help the people, and started to sell Ice
at 25 cents this summer while the deal
ers put the price at 40 cents. Mayor
Dunn told his side of the story today
In a manner which showed he had not
given up bis plan.
"They got a lorjil dealer to enjoin us
from selling Ice to the people," he said,
"and that injunction cannot be argued
until July 23. They went nt it as you
might expect them to. They don't cite
any law as being violated by our efforts
to help the poor people In this hot
weather by selling them Ire at a rea
sonable rate, but they Just alleged that
we have not the right to do it.
"They tied us up July 3 and July 4
we had fully 1 0.000 people who needed
our ice badly. So wo tried to do our
work by taking the ice over from the
city as Individuals, and in this way let
ting the people have tho benefit. Jus
tice Whltemyer ha ordered, the Ice ,we
have left, about 15,000 tons, sold at
public auction and this will he done
today. Apparently the trust thinks It
will get our Ice, but If it does, it will
pay well for It."
When asked If he feared further legal
action. Mayor Lunn said:
"They have already tried to hamper
our work further by asking to have
the Injunction modified ho as to prevent
us from using the telephone In the city
departments and using -one of the city
offices as sn ice bureau. They don't
want to let the people call us up to get
cheap ice, and they don't want us to
have any place where we can meet them
to tell them about it.
"But there Is a storm brewing. Sat
urday night we had a big mass meeting
and there were thousands present who
will help us in our fight to give the
people this necessity at a price within
their means. Of course, we will have
to wait to untie the tangle until the
court acts, but we are In this fight to
the finish."

time he complained to Thomas Black
well, head Janitor of the postoffice, that
he was feeling ill. Then Mr. Blackwell

scream and turned around to find Mr.
Sommers on the sidewalk. He was car
ried into the postoffice, and Mr. Black
well thinking that he had only fainted
tried to revive him, but the pioneer
expressman was dead.
Mr. Sommers was 'cry well known
among the older business men of Port
land. Day and- day out he would al
ways drive up to the stand early In the
morning and leave only when down town
business was suspended for the day.
During the w inter months he was there
with his wagon no matter how cold
the weather happened to he.
According to the yard man at the

GETS JANITOR NEW PIPE
i I have called you before me at the
request of 20 deputies of my office,"
said City Auditor A. I,. Barbur today
to Head Janitor C. S. Simmons, "to no
tify you that there have been numerous
complaints filed against you for smok
ing that vllo old pipe and that you will
have to throw it away."
Mr. Simmons, who yesterday com
pleted his 14th year in the service of
the 'city, was deeply embarrassed by tho
reprimand. Ho flushed and said he had
jnot meant to give any offense, and that
he would assuredly comply with the re
I nuest.
"Well, on that condition then," smil
ingly resumed Mr. Barbur, "I have been
lnsrtucud ter present you with this lit
tle souvenir as a slight appreciation of
your faithful services during more than
a decade with which you have been as
sociated with the employes of my de
j partment."
The city auditor handed the head Jan
'itor a handsome meerschaum pipe as

PENDLETON HL MONTGOMERY DIES
VIOLENTLY INSANE INl lllETTE
Nellie Baker's Case Pitiful in
Extreme; Career of Past
Few Weeks Weird.
" Miss Nellie Baker, trained nufse, of
Pendleton, who mysteriously disappeared
from a lodging house at 324 Salmon
street about 10 days ago, and for whom
detectives and police officers have been
searching the past week, was found this
morning tn a padded cell at the Mult
nomah county Jail. She Is stark mad.
Miss Baker is In reality the "Miss
Geitrude Wilson," the. supposedly deaf
and dumb victim of white slavers, who
I attracted the sympathy of officers and
public by the pitiful talo she made
known by pad and pencil when slip was
plcke.d up by Officer Helm on Wash
lngton street on tho night of July 3.
Since that time Miss Baker, known
as Miss Wilson, has been In the keeping
of the department of public safety for
women, much of the time under the
personal care of the superintendent, Mrs
Lola G. Baldwin, who took a keen in
terest In the young woman's case.
Miss Baker's assumed name, and the
fact that she Is now deaf and dumb,
or presumably so, while at the time
she disappeared she was normal, made
it difficult to identify her. Descriptions
of tho girl and facts of her actions be
coming generally known to the police
officers and to Mrs. Baldwin. Miss
Baker's identity v-as established this
morning.
Telia Story of Abduction,
Miss Baker, when she was picked up
10 days ago, gave the officers a some
what lurid tale of an attempted abduc
tion, into what she said would be a life
of shame. Miss Baker said that she and
Tier mother had come from Minneapolis
several weeks ago and had located at
Stnnfletd, Or, where they started
chicken ranch. They had bad luck, Miss
B.".k( r said, and lost their money. Then
a Mrs. Carverr the girl said, promised
to give her work In Portland at $8 per
week. Miss Baker was to come to Port
land and be met at the train by MrB
Carver's husband. I'pon her arrival
here. Miss Baker said, tho man sup
posed to be Carver snatched away her
suitcase, attempted to assault her, and
then tried to drag her Into a cab. Miss
B'.ker said she had Just escaped from
Carver when the officer found her
She was sent to a sanitarium at North
Portland. She escaped from there and
was again picked up on the streets and
Elven into Mrs. Baldwin's keeping. Last
Friday Miss Baker was taken to Stan
field, where she .Insisted her mother
was living. Her mother dressed like a
man. she said, and lived in a hut.
Escapes From Hotel.
Miss Baker was of course unable to
find her mother, and while In Stanfleld
sho Jumped from a second story window
in a hotel and escaped again. She was
retnken from sagebrush in which she
was hiding, and on the return to Port
land she became violently insane. At
the station she was taken In charge by
Officer S. B. Vcasey and others, and
m. taken to tho county Jail, where
it was necessary to put her in a straight
Jacket and a padded cell to keep her
from InJuHng herself.
About July 2 Miss Baker engaged a
room at 3J4 Salmon street. She repent
pdly told Mrs. Amanda Daggett, the
landladv, that she had come from Pen
dleton with a Miss Huntington, whom
she was nursing. Miss Huntington Is
now believed to have been a person of
MIsa Baker's disordered brain.
Hot at First Violent.
Miss Baker's actions at the lodging
house were somewhat eVratlc, but in no
wise violent. Sho started to build a
fire in her room one night, and Another
time she. stayed in her room all day.
Mrs. Daggett notified the ornctais or
Sunday, after Miss Baker naa ranea to
visit her room for three days.
Miss Baker was picked UP by the offi
cers on the night she left her lodgings.

Festal Dress fcsmorsd.
Almost on the Instant that th lights
In the court of honor winked out Sat
urday night, marking the conclusion of
reunion fun, workmen began the labor
of dismantling the city of Its festal
dress. Among the first to ko was th

early morning, clearing the thorough
fares. What had taken weeks to build
was torn down in hours.
Although this work will be completed
within a very short time, the Elks' 1912

and carried through to. a successful con

plenty of work ahead of it yet.
Winding Up Affairs.
Secretary Harry McAllister said to
day that it would probably take three
weeks or a month to wind up affairs,
settlrt all bills and get the final reports
of the commissioners In shape. Mc
Allister and his office force will remove
from the present quarters at Seventh
and Oak to their former rooms In th
Klks' temple, Wednesday, where tas
"clean up" can be pushed to a conclu
sion more rapidly, as there will be lets
Interruptions in more secluslve offices.
Although no authoritative statement
as to the cost of entertaining ths re
union can be made at the present time,
It is estimated that the commissioners
as a whole kept within their appropria
tions and that the lodge will not have
to pay any deficit. There remain to bu
paid a multitude of small bills ranging
from 2 to 120. rractically all the large
bills have been settled already, as tha
finance committee made It a practice trv
pay cash whenever possible for labor
and supplies.
Sid Excellent Work.
Sol Blumauer, chairman of the fi
nance committee, said touay that th
lodge would not face any deficiency, but
would have some money left In the
treasury, provided several large sub
scriptions that were made are collected.
Thus far, $33,000 has been collected,
and subscriptions aggregating $5000 re
mirtn on the books unpaid. It is ex
pected, however, that these will bo col

"I am well pleased with the manner
In which the commissioners handled
