So heavy a loss to Tur "key as that bf the Yomen would up set this plan just as It seems on the ve of fulfillment. British official information, too, is Tecognized even Hero as a good deal more reliable than the Sultan's and the hint from London that the local Arabian governors are evidently afraid to report how bad matters are started a tremendous Hurry in gov ernment circles in Constantinople. Repressive measures are being adopted with as little publicity pa possible but it Is reported that War Minister Chefket Pasha, the officer -who captured Constantinople from Abdul Hamld at the time of the last reactionary uprising, may temporar ily abandon h's hostile preparation's against Greece ,,and - take personal charge of the Yemen situation un loss his subordinates show satisfac tory results Immediately. Sholk Yahia, one of the most pow orful chieftains in Arabia, appears 1o be at the head of the uprising. Ho has won over practically all th-j leaders of the desert tribes and In dications are that the disturbance is not merely one of the periods of lo cal disorder with which Turkey han long been familiar, but something like a holy war,' with a view to set ting up an Independent government In Arabia.

He is in Egypt just now and both England and Turkey are keeping something more than a fatherly eye on him. The Yemen has always been a source of exasperation to Turkish ministers, largo parts of the prov ince refusing to pay taxes for years together. The old custom was to round up' the chieftains in batches whenever opportunity afforded and give them the choice between paying arrears or going to prison, with "ex tras" in the way of Oriental punish ments. The Young Turks have b6en too humane to resort to such extremi ties, however, and the whole country Is consequently thorough out of hand. Its loss would not amount to jo much to Turkey financially as from a sentimental standpoint, the seces sion of millions of Mohammedan subjects being a blow which might threaten the sultan's position as "commander of the faithful." Re ligion plays so important a part In Mohammedan government that the result might be trouble everywhere that the "prophet" Is acknowledged. o First Concert Tonight.

WALL PAPER & Porter "DIRTY MONEY" WHEN "EARNED" IS CLEAN NOW HEIHS TIGHT OVEIl FOItTUNE 1HFT "1IY KINO O KTH13 TEN DEHIiOIN GOOD ENOUGH TO BUY A COUNT WITH. Los Angeles, Cal., April 13. Miss Jeanne Uhalt today is plaintiff in a superior court action to break the will of the late "Tendorloln King," Bartolo Ballerlno. In her suit, which was filed late yesterday, she asked letters of administration on the grounds that the Instrument under which a compromise was effected be tween Ballerino's heirs and Dolla G. Quinn, a nurse, was not the actual will of the late "king." Ballerino died last July. When his will was filed It was found Miss Quinn who attonded him for several months prior to his death, was left the great er part of his fortune. The relatives of Ballerlno compro mised with h$r. Mrs. Uhalt, who was Ballerino's sister, claims that the will making Miss Quinn a beneficiary was not ex ecuted by him, nor signed by him in the presence of witnosses. She furth er claims a prior Instrument left much of his fortune of $400,000 to her. ' For several days after the filing of Ballerino's will, dozens of . persons with shovels and picks overturned the soil on the grounds of his -old homo in the tenderloin section ' of the city, searching for gold he was reported to havo buried there. In structions to stop this activity was secured by his heirs. ' .No gold was unearthed. Funeral of Charles DeLancy. The funeral of Chas. DeLaney which was held at his home at 380 Lincoln St, at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon, was largely attended The Rev. Paul S. Bandy was in charge of the services, at the house, assisted by his quartett. The Wood men of the World of which he was an honored member, with their Uni form Degree team, officers and members, about two hundred strong, escorted the hearse in open order to the grave where they conducted the Interment ceremonies. The Brother hood of American Yeoman of which lie also was a member, was largoly In attendance. Mr. DeLaney came to Salem about ten years (ago, and has been em ployed In the Hansen planing mill most of the time . since. He was an excellent mechanic, and faithful to the Interests of his employer, An honest, up-right citizen, a loving "husband and father. That he was loved by all who knew him was best evidenced by the many elaborate and beautiful floral pieces contrib uted and the attendance a friends and neighbors. He was forty-three years old and was married in IS 90 to Miss Dora B. Rhode and to them were born two children Viola aud Hazle, who, with their mother, mourn his untimely departure. o CAUSES DEBILITY Here Are Facts Racked Up by n Strong Guarantee. Catarrh causes debility. In our opinion, most people suffering from general debility have catarrh. Such cases of debility cannot be complete ly cured by medicine not designed to eradicate catarrh. In every case where our remedy falls to glvo en tire satisfaction we will not charge a cent for the medicine employed during the trial. Now, surely no one should hesitate to bollevo us or to put our claim to a practical test under such conditions. We will tako all the risk; no ono else can lose anything by the transaction. Wo make these statements and this offer because we know and have time and again proved that Rexall Mucu-Tono rarely falls to do us we claim. It Is not a cure-all pre scribed to cure every dlsoase that flesh is heir to. It is intended for ono purpose, I. o., to cure catarrh by assailing tho diseased condition in p reasonable, scientific way, which Is to employ agontfl that havo been found to havo tho tonic and altora tlvo power to correct faulty meta bolism (tlssuo change) and to stim ulate and help nature" ovorcomo tho causo or causes of catarrh. This being dono, appetite increases, nu trition improves, weight Is gained, comfort of body Is stained and Hfe'a work taken up with the zest natural to tho perfectly healthy Individual. Wo want you to try Retail Mucu Tono. Follow directions and tk It regularly and consistently for reasonable length of time. Then, '.t you are not satisfied, come back and tell us and the money you paid for the treatment will be returned with out any argument whatever, Itexall Mucu-Tone comes In two sizes, SOc and $1.00 a bottle.

EUGENE REVOLTING. , (Continued from Pago 1.) forthcoming to tho pooplo who aro, paying 31 1-2 mills on a 70 per cent valuation and who aro now notified that they will hereafter be assossed at a full cash value. Tho tlmo hai como when tho pooplo want some thing for their money. Slnco con ditions show so palpably that no benoflclal results havo boon had from tho already enormous sums of money spont by tho city, the people are wondoring whore tho money wont that it brought so Httlo return. This demand to know whoro the money is going has resulted Jn forc ing a resolution through the city council to oxpert tho books. It has been said that some of the newly elected councllmeu aro to delay qualifying for office until the books aro oxperted and a statement mado I of tho financial conditions. Whother or not tho' pooplo will bo satisfied with the showing of the city's ex penditures and will commend the action of the administration remains to bo seen after tho findings of the exports. The most important question to bo answored by the administration before tho public bar Is tho under taking to install an electric power plant on the McKonzio river east of Eugene. The project lias been un derway for a long time, thousands of dollars tiave boon spent and the plant Is yet far from completion. Tho estimated cost now appears to have boon far below what It will actually cost to complete , tho plant and sorvo tho city with light and power. Compotent engineers estimate that tho city will have expended when the plant Is ready for operation not less than 5300,000, to say nothing of the enormous outlay for main tenance, depreciation, etc. This lighting scheme, conceived under tho present administration, was sup posed to bo Installed for somothlng over $100,000. It Is now seen that $300,000 will be nearer the actual cost of installation alono. After operation, thoupkeop haa to be figured out and tho wear and tear on tho mnchlnery and wire lines. To release the city from tho payment of some $1,300 per month to tho locnl lighting corporation, and. so it is Intimated to givd vent to some pet ty vengeance, tho opposition munici pal plant was proposed and put un derway. Under present conditions tho city gets a 24-hour service, has no responsibility, and no mainten ance or depreciation to pay for. When tho new plant is once In operation the city has In addition to the first cost of tho power plant, tho maintenance thereof, which will prove an item of considerable magni tude. Tho wholo schomo is so chimerical that ono hoavy tax-payer likens it to a man who wears a $10,000 button on a ten cent shirt. To save a city expense bill for lighting and pumping wator for city mains of $1,300 per month tho city is oxpendlng about $300,000, tho interest on which would pay 'the present bills. Can tho city afford to Invest this enormous amount to save paying $1,300 per month to a local concern? That Is a much mootod question being asked. The wholo plan of operation ha3 been so questionable that opposition would naturally bo expected. When tho plan was first Introduced it may bo said that there was some Influence felt from corporatlvo headquarters, but that Is past history. Tho pres ent management has taken no hand in fostering opposition In any way. Yet, when the last election was hold the administration trumped up the charge, for want of something bet tor that tho local corporation wa3 fighting tho administration. In roallty there was no issue. Tho administration dragged this mouldy corpse from the mummery to glee some semblanco to tho olectlon. That tho peoplo knew there was no real Issuo is easily seen In tho olectlon re turns. Not evon one-third of tho voters got out to vote and no ono cared very much who was elected. Tho "vindication" of tho city ad ministration showed its strength whon ono of its candidates waB elected by three votes and anchor by six, with less than half of tho wards voting. Tho election was of little consequenco in tho light of tho oncoming domand for explanation from tho administration. Tho "vindication" of tho city ad ministration Is also seen in the poo pro voting dowu tho $150,000 bond Issue recontly askod for by over Grand Opera House Thursday andFnhvN'io;hts APR 14-1C Two colobratod lecture by cur own Homer Davenport Thursday aisbt "IN ARABIA" Illustrated by lantern slides of picture? taken by lr.

"up tholr sleovo" another bond issue of $100,000 to spring on tho people, providing tho $150,000 issue carried. Tho first is buo of $150,000 was to take up tho outstanding city warrants, now far boyond charter limitations and being peddled about at a four por'cent dis count. Tho second issue of $100,000 wns to buy now filters and make long noeded extensions for tho city .water system. Tho first issuo was so promptly knocked in tho head, that tho second proposed issue novor saw daylight Tho temority of tho taxpayers can bo seen whon thoy voted down at the samo tlmo, an ad ditional, and gonerally favored, Is sue of $20,000 for a now city hall site. Whllo all agree tho city Is groat ly in need of a new citx hall, yet tho peoplo will not allow tho present administration to buy it for thorn. Under existing conditions tho tax payers will noithor voto forwhat ho administration wants nor for what thoy want themselves. Tho commission form of govern ment is anothor "snake In tho grass" for the administration. Peoplo aro eager for tho acceptance of this new systom, believing It can't bo wor- what they havo now. Tho com mission form will doubtlessly bo forced Into effect, through tho ad ministration council, in tho noar future. A mass moetlng of the taxpayers hns been called fpr to put those questions squaro up to tho admin istration. Considerable interest is being dovoloped and It 1b expected tho meeting will prove a lively ses sion. Anothor matter of vital Import ance to tho city is tho question pure wator. So long as tho locul corporation pumped tho wator out of tho river it was unfit to drink. Alter tho city bought tho plant and began pumping tho wator out of tho samo holo, it bocamo pure. But the peoplo aro still asking for bettor water. Tho city owns, with tho pumping station, two good filters, but refuses to uso thorn because It would increase tho cost of operating tho wator department.

Tho law requiring assessors to as sess at full cash valuo has boon in operative In Lano county, and other counties, bocauso tho law carrlod no penalty. This -defect in tho law has boon remedied and tho discretion permitted assessors under tho old law becomes fixed and certain under tho amended law. Assessors now aro required to assess, as near as posslblo, tho full cash valuo. ' Tho general effect In Lano county of this new manner of assessment will bo to reduce tho county and school taxes, but tho city's taxes will not bo lowored any. Tho legal limit of ton mills, now fixed by law, will not bo reduced under tho now form of assessment. Thore is no question but the taxos for tho city of Eugene tho coming year will be higher if anything, than any taxes heretofore paid In tho history of the olty. In Illustration of tho offect of assessing at full valuo Is soon in tho criso of a man heretoforo paying on $1,000, now assossed at $8,000, over four times tho old assessment. This heavy increase, bound to como from this new method, will reduco tho levy, but not moro than flvo mills. if that much. Eugene sees no early prospects for lower taxes until such timo as tho town op'ons moro com mercially to progressive enterprises and demands retrenchment in its civic policies. Eugono's warrant aro sold at a discount. Tho groat trouble with Eugono, is undertaking to live like a city whllo still woarlng the stagnation clothes of a church and school town. ugono sacrifices many things found to produco rovonuo in other live towns In ordor to secure tho so-called moral atmosphere for her stale schools. Tho maintenance of thh falso valuo of her schools is ox penslvo for tho city, Binco It shuts out ontorprisos which would bring heavy returns to tho city, reducing tho present high taxes materially. And tho worst of It all is, that while Eugono keeps out of her town, heavily licensed and well regulated All run down, easily tired, thin, pale, nervous? And do not know what to take? Then go direct to vour doctor. Ask his opinion of Ayer's non-alcoholic Sarsaparilla. No alcohol, no stimu lation. A blood purifier, a nerve tonic, a strong alterative, an aid to digestion.

So that,, oven attar shut ting out these revenues for moral reasons, tho real effects sought for aro not In ovldonco. Eugono labors under a mistaken impression that a school town can not bo a desirable placo for students If open to licensed saloons. But th moral Btandard of Salom, for in stance, with her model saloons, In equally as high as that of Eugene, and Salem has ono of tho foremost schools in tho stato. The fact that Salem has saloons has never Inter fered a particlo with tho steady growth of tho Willamette University. which this year has its heaviest en rollment. Ono can mention hun dreds of school towns tbrougkoat tho country whoso moral standards havo not beon Impaired becauso of saloons. If studonts want booze In Salem It can bo bqught by thff glass. It Eugone it must bo taken in quantity, by tho bottle or barrel. Is It hotter to havo a student tako a drink in an open saloon in plain view of ths public, or havo him, with his crowd of friends, open a keg in a restaur ant box or a case in the basement of a frat house? Is a revolry behind closed doors better than a drink nt a public bar? Eugene will some timo como to sco the extreme fal lacy of her civic moral regulations In addition to these Puritan liquor laws sho closes tho simple and in nocent moving-picture shows on 'Sunday. Her latest drastic effort io closo cigar stands she had to re peal. It was moro than the peoplo would stand. On Sunday, Eugene la a dreary placo, and Monday Is none too lively. Tho dry law was passed In 1906. closing twolvo or thirteen saloons. At that tlmo Eugeno had three drus stores. Today, Eugeno has no saloons but has six drug stores. Boot-logging is on tho ascendency.
