HON. CHARLES W. FULTON
Many years ago the late Charles
W. Fulton, or, Charlies, as he was
usually called, lived in Astoria and
had a summer cottage at Seaside, to
gether with many of bis friends. On
one occasion, when they were opened
for the season It was discovered that
a number of them had been robbed.
A caretaker, named Charles Wtl
lard, a blustering Texan, was under
suspicion and had a reputation as a
dead renter shot, to maintain which
he amused himself by shooting corks
thrown Into the surf.
When Fulton learned that his
house had been looted he went to
Seaside with Sheriff Jack Williams
and Deputy Lambert and at Seaside
they were Joined by a constable. To
gether they visited Wl Hard's cabin
and when they knocked, Wlllard
threw open a window, rifle in hand,
but allowed them to enter. Fulton
Identified certain articles, when the
visitors told Wlllard to come with
them to Fulton's cottage for further
Investigation, which he did, carrying
hlg rifle. Fulton and the constable
entered the cottage when shots
called them outside. Williams lay
dead and Lambert, fatally wounded,
held the men he had been told to
guard, in his weakening grasp, Wil
, lard freeing himself, shot the con
stable In the hip. Fulton then club
bed Wlllard into insensibility, as he
supposed, and started for help,
when he saw Wlllard propped on
his elbows taking & bead on him
with his rifle. Fulton drew his re
volver and fired. By prompt action
and accurate shooting, he saved his
life and killed the robber.

Washington. Jan. 29. Secretary
Houston of the department of agri
culture, in a communication to the
American Association of State High
way Officials, has set forth squarely
the policy which he thinks should be
followed In highway construction
during the war. Secretary Houston
say:
"So far as it Is practicable to do
so, this department will urge the
maintenance of the highway already
constructed; the construction and
completion of those highways which
are vitally important because of
their bearing upon the war situa
tion or for the movement of oom-
)
Eighteen thousand babies will he
born to Belgian and French moth
er who are too poor, because of the
war, to give them the reception they
should have. The fathers of these
new babies eitht-r are dead or fight
ing. The Spokane chapter of the Red
Cross has undertaken to furnish 500
complete baby ; outfits for these
youngster within the next three
week."
This will be done entirely aside
(from the war work, which forges
ahead from morning to night at .the
Paulsen building, and which must
never "be 'halted even for babies!

You can stay at home with Hoover

ant military or economic need. The
department I preparing to lugxeat
to the state highway departments,
the preparation of a schedule of
work for the federal aid project for
191S in lln with this policy."
In carrying out th policy ' thus
announced there ha been sent out
by the office of public roads, of the
department of agriculture, schedule
forma on which th states sre ' re
quested to set forth their proposed
federal aid work for the 1(18 work
ing season. These schedules call for
a description of each road, the char
acter, quantity snd rail haul of the
materials to he used, the probable
cost, the amount of federal funds de
sired, the specific purpose of the Im
provement, Its bearing upon the war
situation, and what effect a delay of
the work until 1919 or luter would
have. With the Information thu
assembled and classified, an efficient
road construction program Is assur
ed. While it I Impossible to make
any definite statement regarding the
transportation of road materials, the
expectations are that the transpor
tation situation will be Improved and
that the shipment of such materials
for essential projects can be made.
Road construction and mainten
ance in the I'nlted States involve an
annual expenditure of some $3..
000,000, and there is scarcely a sec
tion of the country that Is not ser
iously affected by a marked distur
bance In road work.

Effects of the Sun.
City dwellers nnd those who do not
lead h constant outdoor life should
avoid exposing unclothed portions of
their bodies to the bright sunlight for
a prolonged period. According to the
Jolirnnl of the American Medical Asso
cliitloii, Oerinnn specialists who have
Investigated the subject say that the
dniniigc that frequently follows the
populnr imstlrne of lying fur hours In
the sun n the snnd nt flernmn Readi

ache und often meningitis. Those who
ure Inclined to he nervous lire more
