Final re ports show thai Oregon's total subscription ' to the third Liberty loan to.be $28,092,350, an over-subscription of $9,597,330, or 51.89 per cent. More important in the opinlbn of ' campaign managers than the amount of the subscription is the number of subscribers. The total number for the third Liberty loan was 154,350. Or this number Mult nomah county furjllshed 68,215 and the balance of the state 86.135. ' State Manager Robert K.

During the trial totlity of Noel l't'iubcrton-KiN-ing", member of parliament for Knst Hertfordshire and publisher of the newspaper Vigilante, who is charged with libelling Maud Allen, u' dancer, and J. P. Orein, niiinaficr of the In lependcnt theater, in connection with n proposed production of "Salome," Miss Allnn testified on cross-examin-itlion that site was a sister of Theo dore Dtirnnt, who was handed in Cali fornia in Juntmry, J 8(18, for murder. Maud Allan is an American dancer, who first won renown in London in 1008 with a "Salome dance," in a tiiu fin hall of the English capital.

SAI.KM, May 30 Ilecause of the lack of n (piomm the slate emergen cy board did not convene Tuesday to consider declaring a deficiency in the fund of the stale lime board nnd milk ing provision of n fund of $10,000 to complete and operate the plant at Gold Hill. Governor Withyconibc, Secretary of Slate Olcolt, Slate Treasurer Kav and K. K. Kubli, chairman of the lower house, were present. Five members were neces sary tor a quorum. Governor Withyconibc snid the hoard is not likely to he called again for a stcctnl purpose of considering a fund for the lime hoard, but that the question doubtless will have to remain in oheyance until Hie emer pency board is called for some other purpose, when the. hmc Itonrtl's prti imj-iiI also cau be taken up. ROME, May 30. The trial of a "new count of Monte Crlsto," now In progress In Rome, has created extraordinary Interest principally by reason of the fact that Pope Benedict figures In It. Count Luea Cortese . of Naples, whose splendid mode of life gave him the title of "Luke the Magnificent, is accused of defrauding the Latium Central Credit bank out of $1,250.- 000 by means of worthless bills in a sealed envelope. The pope's Interest in the case arises from the fact that the bank's depositors consist largely of Catholic peasants. Wishing to prevent the failure of the bank, the pope came forward and covered the deficit. Count Luko created a sensation by his cov.rt testimony. Ills profound studies in metempsychosis and other eastern lore, he said, havo led him to the conviction that he Is destined to restore Italy bo her ancient primacy among nations. He was a remarkable Ron Juan. Ho traveled over Italy with a re tinue ot beautiful women and 14 secretaries, who, he said, attended only to "the .formal part" of his dut ies. He was a grand figure In aristo cratic society, and claims to have dictated a fine tone to the morality ot the Italian stage. "Winsome smiles and passionate courtships of lovely ladies put fresh life into me." says "Luke the Magnif icent." He confessed naively that he ex pected King Victor to name him for the senate in recognition of his patri otic propaganda. He sponsored -"vast syndicate schemes, 'being aided, it is charged, by an ex-magistrate, an ex-mayor and others, who are on trial with him. Several, hundred witnesses, among them many famous persons, are to appear, and the trial, which is arousing as much Interest In Italy as the Calllaux and Bolo Pasha cases did In Paris, is likely to last all summer. L DAY OF PRAYER WASHINGTON', May 30. Memo rial Day this year hits taken on n deeper significance. The day is con secrated anew to the thousands who recently have given their lives in per haps the noblest cause for which America ever has fought. The nation thus commemorates the sacrifice of her khaki-chid sons who sleep in France and of her hoys who were swallowed up in the cold waters of the North Atlantic when German torpedoes found Ihcir mark. Although even the vanguard of the expeditionary forces lias yet to ob serve the first anniversary of its ar rival in France, and even though a great part of the lime the American armies oversees has been given lo (raining, the casualty list has began to mount into the tlioiisnrtds. The blood of American youth has been spilled for the first lime on an F.uro pcun battle field. President Wilson formally has pro claimed the day one of public huniil ialion, fasting and praver. Through out (he land, people are asked to gather at their places of worship anil pray for the victory of Hie American armies. J WITH TDK AMKIilCAN AliMY IN KKANTK, May 2S. (My the Asso ciated Press.) Many of the Ameri can soldiers who took part in the sm ssl'til attack against the Ger man lines near Montiliilicr today also participated in (he repulse of the Ger man raid against the American lines Monday. One participant in Monday's affair is said to have been found today in a shell hole in No Man's hind wilh two wounded Germans as his pris oners. He was unable to net hack to the American lines Monday night, so he stood guard over them until the attack this morning liberated him and secured (he prisoners tit lite Ameri can". Lieutenant Irving W. Wood of Oak land, Calif., said he did not see one American fall during today's at tack. "It was more exciting than a foot ball cube,'' he added. "Wo have got the Huns on Hie run. All we need is more Americans and then wc shall lick tliciu." , PARIS, May 30. In a little ceme tery on a peaceful hillside near Un American front are three graves, each surrounded by a little wooden lulling wilh a cross at one end. Uefore them is n tablet bearing this inscription in French: "Here lie Hie first . soldiers of the illustrious Hepnblic of the 1'nitod Stales who tell on French soil for Justice and Liberty, November 3, 1017." v ' The crosses hear the identification discs of Private Hay of Glidden, la., Private F.nright of Piltslimg, Pa., and Private liresliaia of Kvansville, !ml. The resting place of these first Americans lo give Ihcir lives in the I'iglil for democracy has become a shrine in the hearts of the French people. It was the scene today of a solemn service in honor of the American he roes. American and French soldiers united in paying lliciu profound re spect. Salutes were lired over the graves mid they were buried under floral tributes. The ceremony was only a part of France's observance of America's most solemn holiday. A3. . a 4 C 1 v a 1 MOSCOW, May 23. (By the As sociated Press.) General Count Von Mirbach, the German ambassador to Russia. haB of late repeatedly assured the soviet government of the dispo sition of Gernianv lo cease its ag gressive policy toward Russia, - and there have been oilier Indications of a change In the German atltude, in the softened diplomatic relations. Regardless of the ambassador's promises, however, the German troops are daily violating the bound aries established by tlio Mrest-litovsk treaty, and excusing such violations by various pretexts. Finnish white guards are now pressing the Mourmau railway bard at many points, with Gorman sup port, but have been repulsed by the red guards. The Finish government Is strongly urging that the Karelia government in which Moorman Is located, be an nexed to Finland. The soviet government declares that it is not willing that Russia should be wholly at Germany's mercy. MARY'S ANKLE AT PAGE THEATRE The llioiisnnils of tliciitcr uncrs ut n iv I'iiiniliar with A. II.

Gentlemen: : I have now much pleasure in stating, with full knowledge of the importance of such a claim, that the benefit I have received from the use of Nujol is incalculable. While I am in the prime of life, I had suffered for a con siderable time with constipation in an aggravated form, partly induced fiom a sedentary occupation. My knowledge of mechanical affairs responded to. the sug ' gestion of lubricating parts of the human system, and with the idea in mind, I sent for a supply of Nujol. A vrry few dixes affected a marked change in my condition, but to thoroughly rehabilitate my system, I extended the treat ment to more than one bottle, wilh the result that within a sur- prisingly short time, regular and proper movements were obtained and my health w.is improved generally. I intend to always keep Nujol on hand for the correction of any slight irregularity, and firmly believe that all cullering from constipation and elderly people particularly will find it invaluable. Vours very truly, January to, 1917. (Name and address on request) 1 Enjoy the same healthful relief frrJm constipation that is now benefiting the writer of this letter and thousands of other grateful users. Simply try Nujol a few doses are generally effective and mark how gently and surely ic restores the natural regularity of the bowels. Nujol relieves without artificial stimulation, griping, or dangerous reaction. It is absolutely pure and drug-free. Pleasant and safe to take, even for infants, invalids and old folks. Obstinate or occasional cases soon yield to the action of Nujol. Use this wonderful remedy and be "regular as clockwork."
