and the call of fin e found Estacada
a winner.
There was much penalizing for
fouling on both sides.
F'or the visitors Kilgore ar.d
Smith were prominent, although
Wilcox, the Horner Brothers and
Generowski did good work.
Mor

half threw every basket without a
miss. Evans, Fellows, Woodle and
Graham contributed their full share
to the victory.
Springwater divided honors by
winning in the girls game 5 to 4

EY E
The eye is a wonderful piece of divine mechanism and
deserves the best care within the reach of human knowledge.
The delicate construction of this organ makes it neces
sary to use great care in selecting eye glasses and spectacles.
It is not generally understood by those depending on
artificial assistance for good vision, that it requires as much
scientific knowledge to adjust lenses to the eye as it does to
prescribe medicines for the human system.
Much of the present day eye trouble is due to wearing
cheap, decentered lenses fitted ( ? ) by incompetents, or
bought across the counter or from peddlers.
W e cease to wonder at the magnitude of present day
eye trouble, when we think of the thousands who are wear
ing such glasses— lenses which change and distort the rays
of light, producing innumerable eye ailments and defects.
No person should wear a glass unless prescribed by a re
liable specialist—one thoroughly
acquainted with
physiology and diseases of the eye, laws
of
light
anatomy,
and
op
tometry.

Garfield at 1:30 p. m.
Finds Central Oregon
Place for Homesteads
Well pleased with the Central
Oregon region, Edwin Bates, Jr.,
has returned to Portland, after
filing on a homestead. He traveled
about 150 miles by stage aud spent
several days at Fort Rock, near
which settlement he made a filing.
He found the country well popu
lated and the settlers well pleased
by their first year’ s crop. He will
make settlement this spring.
Mr. Bates arrived at Fort Rock a
few days after the killing by officers
of C. E. Shaeffer, a turbulent set
tler, who had been involved in sev
eral difficulties. Shaeffer lived with
his aunt on a ranch neat Fort Rock.
He beat up a homesteader aud
when officers went to the house to
arrest him, two remained outside
while one entered. The two out
side covered him with rifles. Shaef
fer is alleged to have started for his
gun.
The officers fired through
the window, killing him.
The
aunt then grabbed a gun and began
shooting She emptied the maga
zine into the darkness but failed to
hit the officers, who then arrested
her. She was ordered to leave the
country.
In celebration of their eighth
wedding anniversary, Dr. and Mrs.
H. V. Adix entertained forty of
their friends with a five hundred
party at their residence, Currin and
Second street, last Friday evening.
Nine tables participated.
A t the
conclusion of the game it tvas found
that Dr, L. A Wells and Miss Bar-
tholemew had won the first prizes
and Mrs. Fred Gartner and A. E.
Spaiks, second prizes.
After the
serving of refreshments, the rooms
were cleared and dancing was in
dulged in until midnight.
The function was greatly enjoyed
by all. Miss Jessie Harkins. Miss
Bartholemew and Dr. L. A. Wells

Resigns a3 Alderm an Saying

COUNCIL SCRAP CONTINUES
Alderman John Osborne has re
signed his office, having filed notice
with City Recorder Devore. If the
resignation is accepted, the mayor
may appoint a successor.
Discussing his resignation, Os
borne said he desired to avoid taking
sides in the recent dispute in coun
cil over the question of authority.
As he expressed it he proposed to
get out “ while the going was good. ”
Alderman Jones who lias been
served with notice of removal from
the police committee, declines to
abdicate, claiming Mayor Reed has
uo right to depose him without just
cause. Jones says the mayor hasn’ t
proved a case against him.
When at the adjourned regulai
meeting of the city council last
Thursday evening, Mayor Reed
served notice upon Alderman Jones
deposing him as a member of the
police committee and appointing
Alderman Hawkins in his stead,
Jones promptly denied executive
authority and declared he would
continue to serve. Then ensued a
warm exchange between the mayor
at.d the alderman, in which person
alities figured, much to the amuse
ment of a big crowd in attendance.
Stripped of verbiage, the issues
were joined on the question of usur
pation of authority, each accusing
the other. Jones claimed the ordi
nance gave the committee authority
over the marshal aud the mayor
read a section of the ordinance giv
ing him absolute supervision over
subordinate officers.
The mayor said he was of the
opinion that he and Marshal Ames
would have worked in harmony had
it not been for interference by A l
derman Jones. Jones hotly denied
that he was the only one to be
blamed and said the mayor was
placing too much credence in ru
mor.
‘ ‘Well, I have confidence in the
reports brought to me of what you
have said” said the mayor, “ and I
know some of the things you have
done."
“ Whatever I have done I stand
for,” retorted Jones.
Alderman Lindsey was named to
supplant Alderman Underwood as
member of the street committee.
Attornev E. W. Bartlett address
ed the council in behalf of the E s
tacada Realty Co., with reference
to extending the water mains
through Terrace addition.
The
city charter apparently conflicted
with the new state law, but the law
yer contended that the council had
the right to make the extension
outside the corporate limits.
W.
Cary also addressed the council
along the same line. Mayor Reed
appointed Alderman Hawkins, Un
derwood aud Lindsey to investigate
and report, the committee to con-
sult City Recorder Devore.________
