''CHAMPAGNE DRUNK"
BY GERMANS PRICE OF
hoodoo ship. Shi was built la 1894
at West Bay City, Mich., and has al
ways been a source of trouble ' to her
owners. Sha was originally tbe Min
nie E. Kel ton, which became water
logged and went on tho Bands abore
Newport a few years ago. She was
towed back to the Columbia river and
was raised. Tbe boiler was lost in
the river and the hull sold to Dan
steam schooner. On her first trip Out
she became waterlogged and had to re
turn to Portland. :
The vessel has always been a slow
boat and anxiety has often been felt
for her safety when she became over
due. She was in trouble at the time
the oil steamer RoeecranS was wrecked
on Peacock Spit, January 7, 1918.
The Rochelle is of. 682 gross tons,
176.5 feet length, with 35.4 feet beam
and a depth of bold of 11.2 feet. She
carried a crew of 19 men.
Human Skull Is 7
Found by Hunters
Ashland, Or., Oct. 22. Three Ashland
hunters gunning for grouse on the
slopes of Gristly peak east of the
city brought in a human skull, ap
parently that of an adult male who
s alive not more than a year ago,
judging from the presence of animal
matter in the skull and the fact that
it is not weathered. The find, was
made at a spot which indicates that
It may have rolled from farther up
the slope. . A search for other bones
will be made higher up with a view
to tracing Identity and cause of death.
There is no record of mysterious dis
appearance of recent data, and It is
judged tbe skull Is that of some
stranger who met death by accident
or foul, play.
The incident recalls the finding two

College Sheep Win.
Oregon Agricultural College, Corval
11s, Or., Oct. 2. Thirty-three first
prizes, 24 second prises and four third
prizes, together with a sliver cup, were
won by representatives of pure bred
flocks of sheep from the Oregon Ag
ricultural college at various north
west fairs during the present fall.
Astoria, Or., Oct. 22. The steamer
Rochelle, wbicn went aground on Clat
sop .Spit at tne mouth of the Colum
bia river last' night. Is a tbtal loss.
The vessel caught fire after the crew
had left. She carried a crew of 19
men who. including Captain Klldahl,
were rescued at 12 o'clock.
The craft waa being brought In by
Bar Pilot Captain H. A. Mathews, who
got out of his course owing to one of
the channel lights being out.
It was 9:30 o'clock when the vessel
struck and the distress signal was im
mediately given, which was picked
up by the Point Adams lifesaving sta
tion, which hastened to rescue.
The crew was taken off without dif
ficulty and brought to Hammond. All
the men are in the best of condition.
Thirty minutes after the crew left the
vessel she turned over and caught fire.
In a short time the vessel was burn
ing fiercely.
"We got off in time." said Captain
Mathews this morning, "for things
would have been very uncomfortable
had we remained on her a few minutes
longer."
In Jumping from the disabled craft
to the lifeboat, "Captain Mathews re
ceived a slight Injury to his left leg,
which, however, is not serious,
easel Zs Boomed.
The doomed vessel is opposite buoy
12 in the breakers, approximately four
miles from the mouth of the river. The
seas began washing over the craft as
soon as she struck and it was seen at
once there was no hope for her. By
the time the crew was taken off she
had half filled with water. J '
The vessel was en route to Port
land from Boat Harbor, B. C, with a
cargo of 800 tons of coal. ,
Captain Klldahl and the members of
the crew will be brought to this city
this morning.
The Port of Portland's tug Wallula
picked up the distress signals of the
Rochelle at 10 o'clock last night but
at tbe time was towing in the British
ship Queen Elizabeth bound for Port
land from Chill. The tug was unable
to go to the assistance of the disabled
craft until after getting the. ship in
side the harbor. It was 11 o'clock
when the tug reached the scene of the
wreck but she was unable to 'get near
enough to the Rochelle to assist her.

More pianos sold during September than any Septem
ber heretofore and this month (October) is going to far
exceed September. It means during the past several
weeks we have sold by more than three times over
the number of pianos sold throughout the entire State
by all other piano merchants combined.
Chickering, Hazelton, Sohmer, Knabe,
Hallet & Davis, Kimball. Kranich &
Bach,Steinway, Weber, Weber-Pianola,
Steck, Steck-Pianola, Kingsbury, Kings
bury Player Piano, Lester and many
others in Player Pianos, Upright Pianos
and Baby Grands, all in one great
sale at Eilers Music House.
Prosperity Is Here Now and
This Proves It.
When 'our final showing was made
up by the auditor, we found that
during this last September we have
enjoyed the greatest selling record
ever-known since the establishment
of Eilers Music House many years
ago, and to say that we are proud is
putting it very mildv for we have
every reason to be, and to think that
coming through, for when pianos are
started in the factory it takes a long
time to bring them through, a fin
ished product, and the great wheels
cannot be stopped at a moment's no
tice hence,' the opportunity for
purchasing large quantities of thor
oughly reliable standard made pianos
at exceptionally low prices. It is
agreed' that for every two pianos
now sold by the manufacturers' rep
resentatives, the Eilers Music House
October so far is now ahead of Sep-tbuy8 'more surpius pian03, for
temDer. inis means tnat uy tne ena
of October it will far exceed our
greatest of all records. September,
1914, double-quick piano selling has
made it possible for us to secure
through the manufacturers' repre
sentatives, Messrs. Ellsworth, Barnes
and Davey, who now have charge of
this sale, prices -which were never
equalled by any concern, no matter
where located.

Everyone knows that the export
business is practically at a standstill
and that many piano manufacturers
throughout the country have a sur
plus stock on hand and more goods
immediate shipment, and included in
this sale are the costliest instru

Bros. Failure Sale. The cheaper
pianos were all sold by Mr. Lucore
at 388 Morrison St., where by order
of the court, the sale was conducted
by him, to obtain the money for the
creditors at the earliest possible mo
ment. A great many of the makes
now advertised come from this
stock, and nearly every piano is a
brand-new one, although a few,
which are slightly shopworn or
used, are in the very best and guar
anteed condition. We shall sell

At the End of the Third Day
Weary But Happy!
We are not accustomed to
"sales." We buy honest goods,
we keep our stock fresh and attrac
tive. Customers come, look and
buy. We treat them, fairly they
go away pleased and bring others
who look and buy. We treat them
fairly and they, too, bring others.
Thus has this business grown
for thirty-seven years grown un
til it has exceeded the capacity of
these walls to contain it.
So now we must move; in a
very few days we shall be in a
new home a fine 8-story block,
clean and fresh from basement to
topmost floor. A new home, but
we shall see the same faces that
have so many times greeted us
here aye, and many more!
Hundreds have come these last
three days; hundreds yes, thou
sands, more, are coming, for here
is COURTESY, ECONOMY, DE
PENDABILITY! What of the next three weeks?
YOU shall share our good fortune
profit shall be forgotten. WE
SHALL MOVE THE GOODS,
but they shall go into YOUR homes
instead of ours!
