Oliver, tells of the pleasant winter being enjoye'd by himself and wife In southern Califor nia. They are now at Hollywood. Mr. Oliver says that on March 2, the thermometer registers 86 degrees In the shade, but t hut the heat was not oppressive. River Falling Rapidly. The cold weather which has pre vailed during' the past two or three nights has served to cause the water In. the Umatilla river to fall more rapidly than It has any time since the crest of the high water reached this city. The snow In the mounalns Is still melting during the day but the nights are cool enough to put a stop to it. Will Move to Medford. Mrs. M. A.

ROUND Baltimore, Mr. The two powerful railroad labor organizations, the Or der of Railway Conductors and the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, which have undertaken to obtain a general Increase, of the wage scale for all employes In those branches of railway trainmen on the principal lines in the eastern part of the Unit ed States and Canada, have suffered repulses at the very Inauguration of their better pay campaign. Three weeks of negotiations with the Baltimore and Ohio railroad am ong the first to be approached In the matter, ended today, when the com pany, through President Daniel Wil lard, declined to accede to the de mand of the organizations, the com pany' position- being set forth In the following official statement: "The conferences with the repre sentatives of the conductors and traln mens organization and President Wil lard of the Baltimore and Ohio rail road held today In the endeavor to reach a mutually satisfactory basis of agreement on the question of wage In crease, ended In a suspension of further conferences until the brother hood representatives have submitted the matter as It now stands, to the membership for instructions for pro cedure to be taken. The company could not accept the men's proposi as originally made and the men's re presentatives did not feel authorized to accept the counter-proposition made on the part of the company without referring It to the men for further advices. ft WOMAN ARCTIC LECTURER. Miss Agnes D. Cameron, of Canada, Is Visiting In London. London. One of the most interest ing visitors to London just now Is Miss Agnes Deans Cameron, a Can adian with a magnificent personality and a wonderful flow of language. Miss Cameron Is one of the few wo men who have explored the Arctic ocean, and not long ago she publish ed a book entitled "The New North." She has lectured In all the principal cities of Canada and ' the United States, her lectures being distin guished by a wonderful use of slang which would not discredit Mr. George Ade himself. Miss Cameron has arrived In Lon don with two secretaries her nieces and she has entered Into a contract with Lord Northcllffe to write special articles on Canada and American sub-. Jects in the Daily Mail for four months. U. OP W. STUDENTS SEE BIG COMET THROUGH TELESCOPE EVANGELIST LED FORD SWAYS " CROWDS AT BAPTIST CHURCH (Contributed.) Tile meetings at the Baptist church yesterday were a great blessing. Evangelist Ledford preached In the morning on "Getting Stones Out of the Way." and In the evening on "The Steps In the Christian Life." In them both he got down to business and spoke mostly to the Christian people. He set high standards and made every' one feel what a big thing It Isfo be a real servant and son of the most high God. No thoughtless or indif ferent person can come Into the things of the Kingdom. We don't drift into Jesus Christ, but he saves us for a great purpose. He held the large audiences intently and moved them profoundly. At the morning service the main auditorium was filled and in the eve ning all the available seats In the whole church were taken and extra seats filled. A number had to stand through the service. In the three ser vices of the day about a score of peo ple signified their will to take Jesus as their Savior. Converts have been frequent at every service for most of the lust week. Surely Qod Is show ing His power in these meetings, and the Interest Is growing. They will continue through the week, each eve ning at 7:30 and the morning meeting nt 10 o'clock. Yesterday was the best day so far but the general expecta tion is that the week night meetings will be even better than the Sunday services. All are Invited to come.

Not only Professors Morttz and Gould, but members of the classes In the subject have all had their glimpse of the famous visitor through the big tube. "A strange impression seems to have got abroad regarding the obser vation of this comet," said Professor J. E. Gould today. "For several weeks It has been pos- I sihle to see the so-called Halley's comet from points In the northwest with the aid of a two-Inch lens. "It Is a mistake to believe It will be visible but for a short time to res- dents of this section. I look for some- 1 spectacular features the latter part of May." Professor Gould's announcement Is the first authoritative word on this subject of interest, to residents of this community. Scientists of northwestern states seem to have entertained doubts as to whether the comet would be risible here. even though the earth were to be twisted by Its tail. For a period of nearly two months, beginning with another SO days, It will be in sight. No credence Is given by Professor Gould to the report that cyanogen gas of sufficient quantity to destroy hu man life exist In the comet's tall. Indeed, he is of the opinion and de clares every new observation but strengthens his belief, that the com et is by no means as brilliant as on the occasion of its last visit 75 years ago. LONDON BARS "SALOME.' Opera Dropped by Convent Garden on Account of Censor. London. D. Richard Strauss' opera "Salome," which appeared in the pre llminary announcements of the forth coming opera season at Convent Gar den, is not In the final list. The cause of Its disappearance is that Its per formance has been forbldaen by the censor. Dr. Strauss himself is greatly dtS' appointed by the decision. He was very anxious that "Salome" should be produced In London, and he offered to meet the censor In every possible way and to eliminate any Biblical al lusions that might be. In official eyes, considered objectionable. It was all to no purpose. The cen sor wrote regretting that he was un able to give his permission for the performance. ' v Notice.

Judge Cutting will then ask the young heir to choose between the co guardians, Mrs. Julia M. Sheppard and Attofney A. F. Reichman.

Babson, the well known economist, Is correct in his surmises, another panic which will engulf the entire country is due in 1912. As that will be the year of a presidential' election, . Mr. Bryan of Nebraska will be afforded some first class campaign arguments. Mr. Bab- son's conclusions are based on ob servations of the financial history of the last century. About a quarter of the present period of prosperity has gone, he says, but the top of the up ward has not yet been reached. His figures show that the high point of stock exchange prices usually comes after about one third to one-half of the prosperous years have been en Joyed. Mr. Babson urged that any one who was determined to play the market and desired to do so as safely as pos sible, should purchase on a generous margin ten of the leading stocks. When they were high he should sell and put his money in the bank. When stocks were low he could buy again. Every Mother Is or should be worried when the lit tle ones have a cough or cold.
