COUNTY
ROAD
BUILDING
(Continued from page one)
turns out about 400 yards of the
best crushed rock to be found on the
coast. The rock is very hard, and
shows the presence of iron, and is
used on all the roads in the south
part of the county. A huge shovel
hoists it to the elevators of the plant
where it enters the crusher atiu is
elevated to the first story bins, and
thence goes into the big auto trucks
through a chute for distribution on
the roads. Considerable of this pro
duct is being used by the state in
its surfacing and patching work. A
force of thirty-five men are employ-
. d at this plant, in the crushing and
distribution work. The foreman is
Bob Howard, and there are two day
shifts.
Located at Cloverdale is the new
ly constructed toolshed for road dis
trict No. 3, which is 50x80 feet,
with four huge beams for hoisting
purposes. The room is ample for
storage purpose, and this is one of
five other like sheds in the county,
the largest one being located in this
city. When not in use all county
equipment is stored in these sheds,
and the county has found that it
pays.
Beyond Cloverdale occurs a new
piece of road which has just been
opened to travel known as the Dan
iels-Werschkull cut-off, which saves
over a half mile of travel on the
road to the beach. A new tempor
ary bridge has been constructed
over Clear creek for winter travel
which will next season be replaced
with a concrete structure. This new
road Is perhaps the most important
change made in the southern part of
the county this year.
As is well known tc older resi
dents of the county, Tillamook is
divided into three large t’oad dis-
tricts. No. 2 is taken care of by
deputy county roadamaster Henry
Nelson, while Forrest Ayers looks af
ter the work In district No. 3, with
headquarters at Cloverdale.
The county has just purchased
two loadometers which will save
time in weighing loaded trucks
where the county is selling rock to
the state.
The county is also considering the
matter of regulating travel on some
of the side roads during the wet
weather period, believiing that the in
terests of the whole number will be
conserved, except those who put off
heavy hauling until the bad weath
er sets in.
One thing noticed by the reporter
was that there seems to be no lost
motion In the work, and that from
the Roadmaster down, there is a live
interest in pushing the work, and
that there seems to be a real spirit
of co-operation from the shovel-man
up.

CLARK-PHILLIPS RECITAL
The Christian church will be the
scene of an unique recital on Friday
evening, Oct. 14, when J. S. Lamar
will introduce MisB Helen Clark, con
tralto, Mr. Joseph Phillips, baritone
and Thomas George to an audience
of interested music lovers.
This promises to be the most unus
ual recital heard here in years, as
each of the artists comes recommend
ed in a most flattering manner.
At this recital the presumably im
possible will be accomplished. Miss
Clark will positively sing a duet
with herself. It can’t be done? Well
just co.ne anl see—even it y vu’ro
not from Missouri.
Some real novelties will be pre
sented by this duo of “Songs Ameri
ca Loves’’ both as solos and duets.
It is advisable to secure tickets at
once from Mr. Lamar as a capacity
house is certain. Admittance will
be by card of introduction only.
Mr. Lamar states that it will be
necessary on account of preserving
silence in the building during the re
cital, to admit no one after 8:15 P-
m., when the entertainment is
scheduled to start.

WATER PRESSURE AVERAGES
ONLY ABOUT 25 POUNDS
SAW BIG PLOT IN FOOTBALL
The water pressure is ranging per
ilcusly low these Jxyi. The readl. g
which is posted daily at the engi’ e
houee shows'that 25 pound* Is about
the average present water pressure.
On last Saturday at 7 a. m. (heie
was 30 pounds; at 5 o’cb <k p. m.
the pressure vzas 25 pounds.
The
normal pressure for fire purposes is
about 95 pounds, and the present
pressure would make operation of
the big fire engine practically impos
sible from the water pipes supplying
the town from the reservoir.
In case of a fire, a line could be
laid to the slough which would
give protection to the business part
of the city, but would noj be avail
able for the protection of the resi
dence districts of the town.
The
only aid in the latter case would
come from the chemicals, which
would only be of value in the incip
ient Btages of a fire.
This is the condition now facing
the city. It would seem that more
water for fire protection is now a
crying necessslty. The above figures
may be verified at the engine house
from the daily posted records of wa
ter pressure, which any one may see.

Shortly thereafter. In the middle of
the night, police came to his house
and carried him off to Scutari. There
he was submitted to a long examina
tion as to tile club and the game of
football.
The authorities were convinced that
they had found a great plot, and that
the club must be a secret society. A
special messenger was sent for the
ball, and that was duly examined and
found to be an Infernal machine. The
rules of the game were considered to
be another piece of damning evidence,
and still worse were the sweaters and
colors of the club.
After long deliberation the culprit
was sent to the higher police authori
ties in Stamboul, who went through a
second long examination and came to
the conclusion that the empire had
been saved from disintegration by the
early discovery of a great plot They
dispatched the whole matter to be in

It was decided that there might be

Many runners in Wall Street are
adopting novel methods of their own
to safeguard tiie securities given In
their care for delivery. In some in
stances firms have made suggestions
and rules for “camouflaging” the han
dling of stocks and bonds outside of
their offices. One broker’s house has
all securities pinned Inside newspapers
and one of its runners apparently
walks around with a single newspaper
under his arm which has attached to
its pages Inside valuable bonds and
stocks. Yet another firm has hired
former policemen to handle its deliv
eries of stock.
Another firm lias presented its run
ners with suits, the vests of which have
large inside pockets which are but
toned and in these the securities nre i
carried and must be on pain of dis
missal.

DOES AWAY WITH ALL PAIN
Remarkable Anesthetic May Soon Be i
Employed in Delicate Dental
Surgical Operations.
A coal-tar chemical for the elimina
tion of all pain In dental surgical op
erations, simple of application and
suitable for repeated and universal
use In oral surgery, according to the
Scientific American, Is announced by
Dr. Joseph A. Klein of New York
city.
f This new chemical Is liquid In form,
is applied on a pellet of cotton to the
gum or mucous membrane surrounding
the tooth to be anesthetized or Into
a cavity prior to excavation where a
tooth Is to be filled or treated. It
produces complete local anesthesia In
from two to eight minutes and eliin-
lnntes all feeling for from one to six
hours.
Doctor Klein ha, extracted teeth
and pulps painlessly by the use of this
chemical. Its effect is entirely local,
so it may be applied with perfect safe
ty, regardless of the patient’s age or
general physical condition, and it is
particularly valuable as an anesthetic
in the extraction of children's teeth.
It lenves no disagreeable after-effect,
but because of Its long period of ac
tivity gives the nervous system ample
time to recover from the shock of op
eration before the nerves in the area
of the operation regain their normal
feeling or activity.

Volcanic explosions are commonly
regarded as the release of stores of
energy kept confined by external pres

eruptions are typical of this class of
outbreaks. An expert of the United

that another class of explosions, that
of explosive mixtures like gunpowder,
are not likely to occur in volcanoes.
But a third class, that of explosive
