TWKTE A-WMK GUARD THURSDAY. FEB 2, 1911 New York Senatorial Fight May Cause Downfall Of Present Big Chief of Tammany Hall Braves Havana, Jan. 30.—When wthin ten miles of the Cuban coast and but a short distance further from bis goal, J A. D. McCurdy, the Canadian aviator, ran out of lubricating oil today and was compelled to abaudon his magnificent flight from Key West, Florida. When he saw he could not reach this port, McCurdy alighted on the water and the pontoons with which he was equip ped floated the aeroplane until the Destroyer Paul Ding overtook the aerial craft. McCurdy and his biplane were taken aboard. It was at first thought that the aviator could make a now start from the deck of the destroyer, but this proved impossible, and after considerable delay the Paul Ding brought the outfit into the harbor. Other boats that marked the course had in the meantime joined the Paul Ding, and the fleet came in togeth- Manila, Jan. 30.—An American school teacher, who has raversed the west shore of Lake Taal, has telegraphed that live small villages have been devastated by a tidal wave and hree hundred persons killed. According to reports received by local newspapers, all the .owns withn a radius of 20 miles from Mount Taal are more or ess damaged by a shower of mud and stones by the volcanic out- >reak which preceded the tidal wave. The eruptions continued today. The sky is cloudless and .here is no wind, but muddy rain falls heavily. The natives have abandoned their homes in the vicinity of Lake Taal, and have ■ought refuge in the surrounding hills. Observatory authorities believe Manila is in no danger, al- hough the mountain is only 34 miles from here. Natives, how ever, are somewhat alarmed, recalling the destruction occasion. td by Mount Mayon in 1897. So far, however, Mount Mayon has •hown no sign of eruption. Investigators of the bureau of science report that with the 'irst violent eruption of Mount Taal on Saturday, a volcanic isl- tnd appeared to sink five feet, and the waters of Lake Taal, ris- ng, swept the shores a mile inland, carrying away bamboo thacks and catching scores of natives. Others living in the vicin- ty had taken warnng at the first rumblings of the volcano. The owns of Taal, Lemery and Taalisy seem to have suffered the nost. A constabulary relief detachment reports twelve drowned ind one killed by lightning at Taalisy, and three drowned at Lemery. The government is hurrying a relief train to the scene. 10 CHOICE FOR ARRANGINGF0RBI6 SHOOT IN EUGENE NEW YORK Albany. N. Y., Jan. 30.—There as no choice on th" eleventh bal- bt for United States senator. I Prodigious efforts under the sur- ice have been made by Tammany leader Murphy and his allies to ’ Srce the democratic insurgents un- er Senator Roosevelt’s command to ield and vote for William F. Shee- an for United States senator. All as been in vain. The opposition yday see-ms as firm as ever. Í No material change is expected at ómorrow’s joint ballot for the legis- ature. The wisest have no predic- on as to the outcome of the strug-' le. That Murphy has the great fi- ancial powers behind him in the attle to elect Sheehan is openly de- ratic newspapers, which again to- iay assert that J. Pierpont Morgan, Tugust Belmont. Thomas F. Ryan md their interests are trying to orce Shehan through. Murphy is Itespcrate . Finding that the cutting off of 'ank accommodations to the rebels, lefusal of patronage and promises of uture rewards have been futile, (hartes F. Murphy returned to Al- any today in a mood to adopt the ■ tost strenuous methods to gain the lection of Sheehan. I “Senator Roosevelt says you are .urting the democratic party by toiding out for Sheehan,” said the tregonian’s correspondent. “Is that so?” replied Murphy, Then he added: "1 have nothing o say about that." Sheehan declined to say anything urther than that he was satisfied ;jth the situation. Senator Roosevelt gave out a state- nent tonight scoring Murphy for his .ttitude in the senatorial fight. Insurgents Ih-claresl Loyal "Mr. Murphy,” he said, ‘‘is injur- ng the democratic party by holding .ut for Sheehan’s election, and every lay he holds out the less chance Mr. lheehan has of being chosen. The A alk that some of the Insurgents nay desert for Sheehan is ridiculous I m o those who know the feelings and Ar entiments of these men. They are ti, is firm today in their opinion as |> in hey were at the beginning of the I ight.” ■| . It is known that Governor Dix has I |li jeen sounded with a view to his tak- j cl ng the senatorship as a means of I s ireventfng of party disruptions. It I a< s no secret, that lie is oposed to the j entative plan. F. C. Riehl and W. A. Hillis, trav eling representatives of the V. M. C. Cartridge company and the Rem ington Arms company, are in the city arranging the preliminary de tails for holding the annual shoot by the ’Pacific Indians" in Eugene about the middle of June this year. This is an annual affair held by an organization of crack shots with members all over the coast, and Eu gene was selected for this year’s shoot about a year ago. The shoot will be held at the Eu gene club’s grounds on the south slope of College Hill, where there is plenty of room and good street car service to and from the city, There will be a hundred or more shots here from all parts of the country, Besides the members, crack shots from various parts of the East. representing different arms and cartridge companies, will parti cipate. This is a big affair and at tracts national attention. At these meets usually there are several rec ords smashed, and if such occurs at this event Eugene will get the ben efit of the advertising. The city will be well advertised, anyway, bv the mere fact that the shoot is held here. The local gun enthusiasts will soon begin preparations to entertain the men who will be here on that oc casion. The Commercial club will also take a hand and it is the inten tion to show the visitors the best time they ever had. SLIDE AT BEECHER ROCK NOT NEAR AS BAD AS REPORTED Men Sent by Court to Repair Damage Return Before Reaching Scene The men sent by the county com missioners to repair the road where there occurred a slide at Beecher Rock one day last week returned to Eugene today at noon, having gone only as far as Hale, where they learned that the men who have been working on the slide ever since it occurred will have the road clear tonight. The men left Sunday driven by Eli Livery com- heen 8 h Goirk’1 r Seal •g . ■ Root. m .A al If Golden Seal, the root of the above n plant, is a very useful medicine. Many people gather it in onr rich woodlands luring the summer. Few people know now valuable it is in dyspepsia, catarrh, and aa a general tonic. Many thousand pounds of this root are nsed each year in the famous catarrk remedy, Peruna. This fact explains why everybody uses Peruna for catarrh. * FALLING SIGN KILLS TWO SHOPPERS Philadelphia, Jan. 30.— Death de scended upon a crowd of ahoppers in Market street today when a big sheet metal sign was blown from a high roof and fell among them, killing two men and a girl.
