With this sster, who was a widow, Stone had lived -at 12 f Twenty-first street north, and when she succumbed to heart failure the brother was heart broken.

Ktono was a charter member of the Portland Press- club, and scarcely a newspaper man or operator in the city but knew him and counted him a friend.- Stone was more than a mere oper ator. He waa well educated, knew the ways of the world and forced opportu nity and met emergenclea in a man ner that characterized him as a man who does things.

GIRL'S PLEA TOUCHES DOCTOR'S HEART; SHE ; IS FIRST TO BE INOCULATED BY FR1E0MANN Tubercular Patient From Wilds of Canada Makes Trip ; Montreal Alone; "Will Try to Save Her," Says J v Doctor When He Sees Her Waiting. to (United Press Leaaed Wire.) 1 f Montreal, March 11. Hearty welcome was extended here today to Dr. Fred erick Frana Frledmann. discoverer of a tuberculosis serum, when ha arrived to confer with Montreal physicians. Colonel' Burland, chief benefactor of the1 Royal Tuberculosis institute, greet ed Dr. Frledmann at the depot and es corted him to a hotel where,, a score of prominent physicians awaited him. After a brief conference Dr. Frled mann went to the institute where he administered his serum to a number of patients in the presence of 50 physicians. All the doctors who welcomed Frled mann were most friendly and assured him of their support in. introducing his remedy for the white plague. Mary Rancour, 3G years old, a tuber cular patient, whose parents had died of . the dUeaae, . touched Friedmann'a heart , at the Institute clinic and as a result she was the first patient treated. The girl lives In the wilds of Northern Canada, .and, hearing that Frledmann was coming here, she made the trip to Montreal alono and applied to the of ficials to place her name on the"iTst for treatment. Mary Rancour has pulmonary tuber culosis In an advanced stage. She ar rived -at the institute hours before Frledmann reached the city and waited In an ante-room. When Dr. Frledmann entered aha was tho first he saw. She had tears in her eyes. Frledmann looked at her chart and shook his head. But he looked again at the child's tear, noticed her trembling mouth, and tsuld: ','We'll try to save her." She was the first taken Into the clinic. In all Dr. Frledmann treated 20 tuber culosis victims at the lnptit;;te clinic. All the cases were of an udvanefd type. He said results would enme in a fortnight. Th first lot of 200 garbage recep tacles to ba attached to lamp posts and telephone and telvgraph poles in the downtown district have arrived and are beintr installed. The cans, which are circular in shape, are painted a bright green end present an attractive appear ance. A conical cover placed six inches above the mouth of the can hides the- rubbish deposited from view anil prevents rain from pouring in. TJ empty a can it la only neeessary to un fasten a1 catch which aUows the two hemispheres to swlnj; outward. The Installation of the cans was brought about by the recommendation of the sanitary commisalon of IS citlr reiia recently appointed by Mayor IlUHhlight. The design was chosen by Superintendent Alex Donaldson of th street cleaning department. Hereafter the law agsiriKt throwing paper bag, fruit and other rubbish on the streets will be strictly enforced by the police. AUSTRIA FORBIDS aw ik Demands Recall of Troops Sent to Scutari; Servia ' Refuses to Comply. (Halted Fran leases Wire.) Belgrade, March 11. -Objection to Servia sending troops to assist Monte negrin soldiers In capturing the Turkish fortress of goutarl was yolced today by the Austrian government through Ba ron von I'groh Von Abrflinfalva, ths Austrian minister to Servia. Ht also requested ths immediate recall of any Servian troops which had been dls patched there. Tho Servlitn minister replied that Bervla Is compelled, under treaty ar rangements, to assist her allies, his government would assist Montenegro despite Austria's objections. The situation Is regarded aa extreme. ly delicate. The Austrian government s objections were based on the ground that Scutari Is to becom the capital of Albania. SANDY ROAD MAK EOV IRSSUIRM DAMAGES FIXED IN AUTO ACCIDENT CASE Because the law does not permit a Jury to determine the extent to which two defendants are liable in a damage case, other than to fix the point of whether one defendant is ;is negligent as the other, or one defendant la en tirely at fault, the Ijavffanl Automobile comrmny waa thw-JflScr of $2750. W. H. H. Morgan and the company bad made a settlement of 18000 wfch John F. Holm hoe on account of injuries received when Morgan ran into Jlolmboe Willi an au tomobile on Washington street 'which Morgan was learning to operate at the time. To settle the amount each should pay it was decided to submit the caso to the Jury. The jury first returned with a ver dict for 15250 against the company and $2750 against Morgan. Judge McGinn explained - that thadflmages must be assessed against each party equally or against one only, - The Jury returned quickly with a verdict asainst the com pany. , From one end of Vandy road to the other a protest has arisen over the as sessments made by Deputy City Auditor Flahders for the cost of the new pave- ment but recently completed and ac cepted by the city. As the result of this a petition has been submitted to the city auditor for presentation to the city council tomorrow, asking .that the as- essments be distributed over a larger area. The Pandy boulevard Is an 80 foot treet and beyond Kast Sixtieth street here Is only a single track. It Is long this portion of the street that the remonstrance is strongest, for the street car company, which paya tor tne pari of the street ocupled by Its track, has only1 half as much to pay as on the por- ion of the street double tracked. The boulevard, too. Is laid out dif ferently from most streets, as It cuts ntersecting streets on a diagonal. whereas the ordinary street crosses other streets at right angles. The con? sequence in that many of the, property owners on the Handy road will have to pay enormous assessments, some of these amounting to aa high as $800 or $900. An average paving assessment is about $300. Abutting property owners on the newly paved boulevard say that prop erty owners five blocks on either elde of It are benefited by i.ie Improvement, Inasmuch as the Faijdy road Is the main traveled thoroughfare in that section of the city. The abutters propose that the entire assessment he distributed over an area that will take in four or five blocks on each side of the street and that the different Iota be asscssel in proportion to the distance they are from the boulevard.

Upon discovering the mistake yesterday she; again "visited the Fourth street shop, an upon entering was smilingly greeted, by the girl clerk with the assurance that the manager -had the pieceof gold and would return It to her. . 1 "I thought thS( such an vn-, , usual limn If eata f Inn of hmneUu. honesty," said Mrs. Proctor while discussing the Incident, '"that I believe the people of Portland ought to know some of the facts connected with It."- ' - . - the matter 4h first pf xtwreit.! n ' Iarkln(oo endeavored o show tha the confessions made by the Humphrey were obtained through rear and sugges tlon; that the main points' of the crime were not proven, and that a persistent warfhad been waged against tha two men.
