Staff Photographer Makes
Daring Climb to Secure
Picture.
"Believe me, that fellow took his
life In his hands," said C. S. Wood
ruff, staff photographer of The Jour
nal, as he developed a photograph
which he took yesterday of R. W.
Kenton, steeplejack, perched on top of
the north cross of the tall steeple that
distinguishes St. Francis' church at
East Twelfth and Pine streets.
"Why, only one man in a I thousand
could pull that stunt without getting
dizzy and falling off. Renton walked
on the cross arm when It swayed so
I thought it would break any mo
ment."
Photographer Woodruff, I m percep
tive of his own .danger, occupied a
perilous position at the top of the
south cross. It, too. was swaying
dangerously before the breeze which.
at that altitude, had the velocity of
a young gale. It was raining, too,
and a haze veiled the city.
Renton went aloft to replace burned
out electric light bulbs that fringe
the cross and make It visible all over
the city at night. It took him three
hours. The rain prevented completion
of the, Job and an hour's work will
be done when weather conditions are
more favorable.
The apex of the cross Is reached
through the inside, by climbing the
wooden lattice work. Reaching the
top, Renton crawled over the edge,
but the photographer in the opposite
cross took the precaution of keeping
his legs on the inside so that in the
event of a fall he would have landed
in the. church and not on the street.
The distance from the street to the
top of the cross is 265 feet. The
cross Itself is 18 feet high. The
cross arm is 12 feet long.
Bank Is Removing

The First National bank is erecting

This will prove a Heavy undertaking,
as the door weighs nearly 24 tons. The
construction work on the new build

necessary to make the change as
Quickly as possible.

THIN FOLKS TURN
FOOD INTO FLESH
port Weight Increases of Tea to
Twenty-five Pounds WbenSargol
Was Taken With Sally
If you are thin, rundown and under
normal weight and would like to put
on from ten to twenty-five pounds of
good healthy flesh you must make
your meals do you more good than
they are dolnjr now. ,
Flesh, fat and muscular tissue must
come from the food you eajt but if
your organs of assimilation! are de
fective and you lack the power to
turn food into flesh and fat 1much of
the good of your meals muist leave
your body as waste. T
If you are ten pounds or more un
derweight try eating a Sargol tablet
with every meal and take another Just
before going tobed and try to see if
this is ttue In your case. Weigh youd
self before you begin and each ten
days thereafter. Do this for sixty
days and note the difference. Don't
guess at results. Let the sdales tell
their story. Reported gains of from
ten to twenty-five pounds and even
more from this plan are by no means
Infrequent. Tet the action is perfect
ly natural and entirely harmless.
Sargol is a splendidly balanced
combination of assimilative aids de
signed to Increase tbe nourishment
you obtain from your food and so to
make your food develop healthy fat,
flesh and muscular tissue between
? our akin and bonea. It can bvob
ain d from leading- drugglata every
where and each large package con
tains a guarantee of - satisfactory

Chicago, March 7. (I. N. S.)
Financial experts anticipate the neces

HEW DANGERS
OF CONSTIPATION
A recent issue of the New York Tunes
say:
"Recent researches of Prof. MetcbnikoS
and others have led doctors to suppose
that many conditions of chronic ill health,
nervous debility, rheumatism and other
disorders are due to poisoning set up by
unhealthy conditions tbe Large Intes
tine, and it has even been suggested that
the lowering of the vitality reaulting from
such poiaotung is favorable to the develop
ment of Cancer and Tuberculosis.
"At Guy's Hospital Sir William Arbnth
not Lane decided on tbe. heroic plan of re
moving the diseased organ. A child who
appeared in the final stage of what was
believed to be an incurable form of tuber
cular joint disease was operated on. Tbe
Lower Intestine, with the exception of nine
inches, was removed, and the portion left
was joined tp tbe Smaller Intestine,
"The result was astonishing. In a week's
time the internal organs resumed all their
normal functions, and in a few weeks the
patient was apparently in perfect health.'
The Lower Intestine can never get into
this condition if Internal Baths are used.
The ' B. I Cascade" cleanses the Lower
Intestine its entire length thoroughly with
pure warm water and removes all this awi
aonous waste which, is such a men see to
heal.
It is Nature's own core for Constipation,
and , is now being ased by over 300,000
Americans with great success.
The "J B. L. Cascade" is now being
town and explained by the Woodatd Clark

also distributing a most interesting booklet
called ".Why Man of To-Day Is Only 50

TOWN LOT PRICES ON

STATE, SPROULE SAYS
S, P. Official Says Railroads
Become Discouraged When
Efforts Neutralized.
PLANS ARE UNCHANGED
Electrification of West Side ine to
Continue; Car Shortage Declared to
Be aa Evidence of Good Times.
High prices Of lands in the Willam
ette valley have retarded the settle
ment and development which the
Southern Pacific expected would fol
low electrification of its lines in Ore
gon. This has tended to discourage
further extension of electrification
work and prevented the increase In
population and Industry that was ex
pected. This statement was made today by
William Sproule. president of the
Southern Pacific company, who is here
on his annual trip. Mr. Sproule said
the one great thing a railroad builder
looks to is the settlement that follows
railway extension.
Xand Prices Boosted.
"The electric lines in California are
now tributary to rich lands of plenty,"
said Mr. Sproule. "It was with that
experience in mind that we decided
upon electrification of the Willamette
valley lines. We supposed the same
development would follow here as in
the south.
"When I say that we were disap
pointed in this regard, I mean that
the only immediate effect we noticed
from the electrification already done
has been an increase in the price of
the land, and this fact alone has dis
couraged the prospective settler. The
lands of the Willamette valley that I
refer to will always be agricultural.
When the owners put town lot prices
on them as soon as railway develop
ment takes place, it is no wonder that
settlement is slow.
"The result of it all is that further
electrification will be viewed with
great caution by railway men.
xlstur Plana to Be Carried Out.
Mr. Sproule confirmed previous an
nouncements that the Willamette Pa
cific railway would be open for pas
senger traffic between April 1 and
April 15 and for through traffic on ;
regular schedule late in the summer.
He confirmed also, the announcement I
that the electrification of the line from 1
Whltson to Corvallis, about 45 miles, I
would be undertaken actively as soon j
as weather permits.
This section of the work was a
part of the original plan of electrifi
cation under the Portland, Eugene ft
Eastern regime but was discontinued
because of labor troubles and be
cause of a controversy with the Cor
vallis city council over franchise mat
ters. Car Shortage Indicates Prosperity.
As for the car situation, Mr. Sproule
said It is acute just now because of
the sudden revival of the lumber busi
ness, coupled with the congestion In
eastern terminals.
Car shortages are always indica
tions of good business," he said. ' When
cars are idle no tonnage is moving, and
when no tonnage is moving, it is a sign
that the industries are stagnant.
"Such a condition always will pre
vail, and it behooves the railroads to
make the best of them. That Is what
the Southern Pacific is trying to do
now, and will continue to do so.
"The Pacific coast is at a general
disadvantage, because when cars are
sent east with loads, the empties have
to run the gamut of all the connecting
lines before they can be redelivered to
the line of origin.'

Mease Jae Holds Plnn.
Falling in this effort, the crown
prince sent his men against the French
along the west bank of the Meuse In
another attempt to find a weak spot
They smashed first at one point of the
line and then at another, hammering
hard at each ; but the French stood firm
everywhere, it is declared. The as
saults in that district are continuing
furiously.
The Crown Prince's failure to make
more rapid progress is causing impa
tience at Berlin. Evidently inspired
articles in newspapers urge the people
to be more patient. The Vossiche Zei
tung said: "The battle at Verdun may
seem to be making slow progress to
people who like to dash through his
tory in an express train. German arms
cannot always win victories. But the
deeds already accomplished should
earn implicit confidence In the magnifi
cent leadership of our armies."
Berlin Official Report.
Berlin. March 7. (I. N. S.) Cap
ture by the Germans of Fresnes, in the
Verdun ' region, was officially an
nounced today.
The text of the German statement
follows:
"We captured the village of Fresnes,
in the Woevre district, seven miles
southeast of Verdun.
"Southward of La Bassee the British
were driven from the village of Ver
melles with the bayonet.
"In the Champagne district we cap
tured the French position at Maisons
De Champagne and took prisoner two
officers and 150 men."
The statement added:
"The French positions at Fresnes
were taken at daybreak by storm. We
took 300 prisoners. The French still
hold a few houses on tbe western out
skirts. "The railroad station at Bar Le Due
was bombed by a Taube."
French Statement.
Paris, March 7. (I. N. 8.) Capture
by tbe Germans of Hill 266, an impor
tant position on the Meuse, four miles
northwest of Verdun, was admitted to
day by the French war office.
The official communique said:
"Westward of the Meuse, the Ger
mans, protected by an intense bom
bardment and liquid gas. advanced
along the railway to the outskirts of
Regne villa. Three violent attacks
were made simultaneously against Hill
265 by fully 20,004 men. The hill was
captured despite the heavy losses in
flicted by our artillery and machine
guns.
"We hold the villages of Bethln-
court, Boqueteaux, eastward of the
Corbeaux forest, and Cumierea. on 1
Goose bill. Violent artillery engage
ments continued last night east of
the Meuse and in the regions of 1
Bras and Hardoumont, as well as
the Woevre sector and the villages at
the foot of the hill. (Forges and
Bethincourt are both within easy
gun range of the forts northwest of
Verdun. )e
"In the Argonne district the Ger
mans made several efforts to occupy
the mine crater at Haute Chevauchee,
but were repulsed. Our artillery is
continuing to bombard their lines of
communication."
Artillery Firing Unequalled.
Metz. March 6. (I. N. S.) (Via
Berlin to London, March 7.) Firing
of artillery such as never before as
sembled in warfare is gripping Ver
dun from the north and the east.
Every hollow, wood and thicket within
range of the fortress conceals its
quota of guns of all sizes, from the
three-inch field piece up to the big
gest of Germany's giant siege howit
zers. In one position the correspondent
found batteries arranged in a continu
ous line, with scarcely a hundred
yards between the guns. Behind these
again, in suitable places of shelter,
were the big guns, up to the very
biggest, and from the crest of a hill
could be seen far to the front field
j batteries whose guns had been pushed
forward almost into the infantry line,
The day was counted a quiet one.
yet from the batteries near which the
correspondent was standing he count
ed, watch in hand, two shots per min
ute for a considerable period.
Colonel Driant Captured.
Paris. March 7. (I. N. S.) The
name of Colonel Driant, on duty in
the fortress of Nancy, will always be
remembered with the battle of Ver
dun. In charge of two battalions, he
found himself surrounded by Germans.
Retreat became Inevitable He him
self marched in the rear of the last
column. Almost all of his troops had
retired safely when the. Germans
closed in around the last French col
umn. A hundred men or so were thus
cut off, and with them Colonel Driant.
There is good reason to hope that he
is unwounded and a prisoner in the
bands of the Germans.
Metz Forts liombarded.
Amsterdam. March 7. (I. N.

Three of the chief forts of Metx were
bombarded bv French aviators. Sev -
eral trains carrying supplies to Ver-1
dun were badly damaged.
For Rough, Wrinkled,
Freckled, Pimpled Skin
As March winds, flying dust and
dirt, are act to injure any complexion,
this information will be of special
value right now. If you have any
cutaneous blemish, don't use patnt,
powder or anything else to cover it up.
Too often this only emphasl2.es the Oe
fect. Besides, it's much easier to re
move the disfigurement with ordinary
roercolized wax. Applied nightly, the
wax will gradually remove freckles,
pimples, moth patches, sallowness, red
or yellow blotches or any surface
eruption. The affected cuticle Is ab
sorbed, a little each day. until the
clear, soft, youthful and beautiful
skin beneath is brought wholly to
view. Ask the druggist for one ounce
of mercollzed wax and use this like
you use cold cream. Remove in morn
ing with soap and water. Many who
have tried this simple, harmless treat
ment report astonishing results.
If bothered with wrinkles or fur
rows, a wash lotion made by dissolving
1 oz. powdered eaxolite in pt.
witch hazel will prove wonderfully ef
fective. (Adv.)

Rheumatism is a direct result oc
