Michael Damphoffer (sitting) and his son, Mike Jr. Vancouver, Wash., Jan. 16. On the? occasion of the one hundredth anni versary of his birth last Tuesday, Michael Damphoffer, a pioneer res ident of Vancouver, extended a hearty welcome to a large, number of com rades who called. Mr. Damphoffer was born in France January 12, 1815, and before coming to tbe United States served in tho I'Vench army for Beven years. In 1856 he enlisted in the First Oregon cav alry, and was Immediately -sent to the front, arriving at Fort Vancouver on his forty-first birthday, January 12, 1856. "Together with his son he fought in tho Civil war, returning to Van couver, where he has since resided. Mr. Damphoffer takes great pleas ure in reciting numerous Incidents in his life. He says when he first cam to Fort Vancouver a few , log cabins represented the quarters for the offi cers and soldiers, and one building outside the fort was all of the city of Vancouver. His first home ! In Vancouver was built on West Sixth street near the present brewery slteFj11 was de stroyed by fire and Be later took up his residence at the corner' of East Thirteenth and Reserve streets. , Of the family of four sons and two daughters, Mr. Damphoffer and hla son. Michael Damphoffer Jr., who is about 70 years old, are the only survivors. Beauty at ' Sweet Sixteen Comes Back When One Clears Up i the Complexion by the Quick . Acting Stuart's Calcium Wafers. " Pimples are an offense to others and . a crime against yourself. People have ' nly tolerated you because they con- aldered the condition of your face to be a misfortune against which you have - no remedy. . But now that It is uni versally known that Stuart's Calcium Wafers will usually banish pimples, blackheads, blot'chen, eruptions and liverspots-. your continued negligence will be considered- inexcusable. practically nothing has been done. Neither party seemn to. have any def inite legislative program in sight and little legislation of importance, other than the Prohibition bill and -resolution, are now in sight. Strong sentiment has developed in favor of the holding of a constitu tional convention. Senator KHiott of Bonner county has Introduced a reso lution providing for, the submission of the question of such a convention to Uio voters of the state at the next general election, and present Indica tions are that the resolution will be passed. Economy Tlei TJnnaaded. The legislature turned a deaf ear to the governor's plea for economy In the first action it took. Governor Alex ander suggested in his message that $50,000 was sufficient for the legis lative appropriation," but the usual $65, 000 was appropriated. There seems to be a determination on the part of the legislature to act on none or tne governors . sugges tions. The Democratic members are giving Tils" policies loyal support, but they are in the minority. The Re publicans are well organized and are working in harmony, so that the Dem ocratic program apparently has little chance of success. Governor Alexander will, however, probably have his way in the matter of the reduction of appropriations for the various state departments. In his message he plainly Bet forth what he considered sufficient for each depart ment Of the state, and his estimates were far below those of two years ago. With the veto power in his hands, and the Republicans lacking the necessary two thirds to pass bills without his approval, it seems that he will accomplish his purpose in this one matter, if in no Other.

In one way, at least, the legislature has made twice as much progress the first week of this session as It did in the same peri od two years ago -two bills have suc cessfully .passed both houses so far this session while the first week of last seelon but one had reached the governor. This season the legislature was ready to start ' business Monday, be cause both presiding officers of the senate and house had been known f o" weeks and each had his committee as signments practically framed, up, while two years ago the legislature had to wait until Wednesday, when Governor Hay made his farewell and Governor Lister hi3 first address, and Lieutenant Governor Hart was duly installed as president of the senate. .Two years ago this time the house had Introduced 89 bills as against but 11 this session, while the senate had 62 'bills, as against 66 this time.' And at that, mighty few of, the big bills have come in. Would Consolidate Educational Boards. The two which will probably cause as much fight as any are house bill 1, by Zednlck, which would abolish the individual boards which control the state university, state college and three normal schools and In their place provide but one general board; and the bill which would permit daylight saloons to a limited number in cities of more than 2500 population. Other measures which attract at tention- would repeal the mother's per. sion act, repeal the law providing a bounty on wild animals killed, thre bills to reduce . the interest, now 15 per cent, on delinquent tax cerWflcates, eliminating second choice in primary elections, permitting racing and sell ing of pools on the contests, and a bill which would prevent granting of a franchise to a competitive public util ity until the state public service com mission has authorized' the same by resolution finding necessity for the new company. rr&ak Bills Are Pew. Of the bills in the freak class there are few so far, unless one would so4 class a bill requiring vehicles drawn by animals to carry head and tail lights when traveling at night, or the bill changing the day of school elec tions from Saturday to Monday so tha Seventh Day Adventists may have a chance to vote without violating their religious principles. With sole exception of the bill to wipe out bounties, none of the admin istrative measures has yet been intro duced, and in the use of the word ad ministrative, is meant all of the state elective officers, rather than the ex ecutive alone. ' There has been a general under standing that so far as possible all of the legislation urged by the governor, the treasurer, secretary oT state, In surance commissioner and other of ficers will go In as committee balls. Next week, after the committees get down to work, a flood of these measures njay be expected. i Below will be found a list of the bills which have been passed by both houses and signed by the governor and those Introduced in senate and house and the committees to which they were referred: Bills Faued Both Houses, Signed By Gotothot. 8.

Seattle, Wash., Jan. 16. The "jit ney" bus craze has hit Seattle with a vengeance.- After an exceedingly short period of pioneering by a f ew adven turous spirits, the business of trans porting passengers from the residence districts to the center of the city has proved so profitable that 400 drivers are now operating on routes that ra diate Into every section. A short time ago Alfred Li nx of Se attle observed the' trial of the scheme In Portland. He tried out the idea here. Imitators followed, and the nimble "Jitney" is now eating raven ously into the profits of the Puget bound Traction, Light & Power com pany, the private street railway eom- pany The traction officials have made no effort as yet to offset their rivals, but announce that they are con sidering the problem. As evidence that local men consider the "jitney" has come to stay, two Deattie attorneys or prominence are aiding the drivers in organizing for the purpose of ' systematizing their business. At a meeting .this week Hugh C. Todd, a candidate for the Democratic nomination for senator a the November primary, and H. E. FOs ter, a former member of the state leg lsiature. agreed to appointment on committee of 15" to organize the driv ers into an association and subml for ratification such details as sched ules, routes and liability Insurance,' Mrs. M. R. Murray, the first worn an to operate a "jitney" bus for hire in Seattle, was unanimously elected a member of this committee'. At their Monday meeting, when per manent officers of the association are to be elected, the question of is suing "jitney" transfers from one auto to another is expected to arouse good deal of discussion. for justice of the peace. She will have narge or tne criminal calendar.
