The Markets
The hop market woke up with a start
yesterday, due to a sudden influx of
-orders from eastern dealers, presum
ably to cover short sales. No hops re
jpnn.in the warehouses at Portland, and
crowers had to "bo looked to to fill the
orders. McLaughlin, of Independence,
was yesterday offered 10 cents, which
he refused, for part of his 1500-bale
lot. The Bochler crop at Mt. Angel
was bought by 8eavey & Johnson at 15
cents. There are also orders for 1914
hops, but growers are indifferent, al
though 15 cents is offered. A cable
from Europe says lice are increasing
Tapidly in Cierman yards, and condi
tions generally are not above the aver
age. All grades .of sugar were advanced
10 cents a hundred in Portland yester
dav. It is expected the prices will be
still further advanced. The strawberry
crop irsiponing with a rush, due to
the exceedingly warm weather, and the
markets are glutted. Trices dropped
from $1.10 and $1.75 in the morning,
and 75 cents and $1.25 in the after
noon. Cheese is weak with stocks accumu-.
lating and prices tending downward.
Kllgs and poultry aro firm and prices
steady. Eggs arc quoted nt 21 to 22
cents. In Chicago the wheat market
Was disturbed by alarming reports of
the ravages of t ho Hessian fly, which
it is stated will cut tic crop at least
100,000,000 bushels from the estimates
of a few weeks ago.

Police Officer WtW. Gaines Discharged
From Force m Grounds Different
From First Brought Charges,
PATROLMAN THREATENS TO
, "GET" ROY WASSOM
Accused Man Becomes Angry at Ses
sion of Committee Shelves Re
sponsibility for Inquiry.
i
Whoever went to Ibo council cham
bers last night .to glean some choice
bits of scandal from the hearing of the
j charges against Officer W. W. Gaines
j was disappointed, as tiio dismissal of
; the officer was recommended to
' tho council upon tho report of the
police committee and the municipal
skeleton hustled back into the closet.
The meeting of the council wij called
for the purpose of hearing the charges
of conduct unbecoming to an officer
and a gentleman preferred by Roy
Wassom, but after the council was call
ed to order a communication was read
from the police committee stating that
in order to save the council from be
ing a board of scandal Inquiry nnd" to
uphold the dignity of that body that
the police committed recommended tho
dismissal of Officer Gaines on grounds
entirely outside of tho grounds pre
; f erred by Mr. Wassom.
! It was suggested that Officer Gaines
be given n chance to express himself
'and that if he preferred that the in
vestigation be hear, that tho inquiry
I go on regardless of the di
Councilman Commings then stated the
reasons which prompted the action or
the police committee of which he is n
member.
"Tho action of the police commit
tee," saiil Mr. Commings, ""was taken
entirely without regmd to tho guilt or
innocence of Mr. Gaines on tho charges
preferred. If he is guilty as charged
this action in suppressing the investi
gation ennnot hurt him. If he is inno
cent, and I hope he is, this action does
not indicate his guilt in tho least. I
say this action was taken entirely out
side of tho complaint of Mr. Wassom
and we did not consider tho charges lu
tho least in making our decision. .1
do know, however, that when the com.
mittoe was in session, Mr. Gaines be
came very "angry and attacked Mr.
Wassom in the committee room and
said to him: 'If. I lose my job on this
police force through you, you want to
jump this state and jump four more
states, as I will get you.'
"The conduct of Mr. Gaines before
tho committee was sufficient to war
rant our action, and while this is not
a pleasant thing to 'do, and while thof
are not pleasant things to say, I only
think it fair to ie honor of" the city
council that the dismissal tie affocted,
and such a course is the only quiet wnv
out of it." , '
Here the question of the legality of
taking action on the resolution was
raised, as this meeting was called only
for the purpose of investigating ' tho
chargcprefcrred. and the matter was
carried over to the regulnr meeting or
the council one wee!; from next Men
day. Mayor Steeves was nnablo to be
present on account of another engngO
rnent and Alderman Spaulding was
chosen to preside.
ABSORBS SKIN, CHASES
WRINKLES YOUNG AGAIN
"The shock at beholding myself in
the glass after nine long weeks abed,
nearly caused a relnnse," writes Kmilv
j (..olson in Home Cjueen. "Tho faded
; fnce, with its lines of illness and worry
i seemed twenty years older. Now, I
i thought, I could not attend my chum's
j wedding, eleven days off, to which I
'had looked hopefully forward.
".She herself came to my rescue. She
j procured an ounce of ordinnrv mercol
iized wax at the drug store, which the
uuue me sprrnu on like cold cream,
washing it off next mori.rug. Applied
nightly, this apparently absorbed- the
withered skin, so gently I experienced
no discomfort. Upon the wedding
morn the pallid comple::..n had entire
ly given way to one of youthful color
and loveliness.
"And there wasn't a wrinkle. This
due" to a wash lotion made by dissolv
ing an ounce of pondered sn.xolite in
a half pint of witch hazel. The daily
faco bath had dispersed every line."

Parable of The Great Graft
CHAPTER I.
Now, it came to pass, in the reign
of King Nero, tho Near, and in the
four hundred and twenty-third year of
his reign, that the King began to grow
old; and growing obi, he grew peevish.
so that he was easily vexed. And the
slaves and servants were sore afraid
when the King drew near, lest ho be
seized with an anger, and start some
thing. Nero had been a good King and the j
eple loved him with a great affec-'
tion. For the peoplo knew what the
King's Wise Road boss had done for!
them, and they were grateful; but as
Nero grew old and peevish, his treat
ment of the people changed for the
worse, and ho began to lose his pull I
with the public.
So it came to pass tnat thero arose
throughout the Land a great clamor. I
Tribesmen came together and talked
in loud voices; and there was much
wailing and speech making. And cv-1
erybody knocked Neio and called him a!
Crab.
Now when Noro knew that the I
tribesmen knocked him, ho became
peeved beyond expression, and being '
thus peeved he raised the deuce with
everybody in general
And called his Chief's Ritbduh unto I
him. When the Kutidud was come un- j
to him, Nero looked upon him with a
fierce gaze nnd tho Ruhdub trembled
with .a shaking fear and bowed low
before the King. Then spuko Nero
unto him thunly: j
Why trcinblest thou so, Vassal?
Wonldst shake down tho plaster r
Arise that I mayest smite thee on the
bean." And when the King hnd smote j
him on tho bean, he spnko unto him!
even again: "List ye unto me, Itub-i
dub; I'm poing to give up my job." i
And tho Rnbdiib was dumb with ;
amazement. And being dumb with
amazement the Ruhdub answered noth
ing; and Nero aid unto him: "Think;
ye this hunch of kneckers can get niv
goatJ Verily there is no chance. )o
yo forth and call together tho V.'isi
men." And the Ruhdub went forth to
obey the Kinc filled with a great won
der. And whilst the Rubdub went
worth, the King got busy on his own
account.
CHAPTER IT.
Now when tho wise men had come
together, every one in the presence of
the Kinir, tho King addressed the Wise
men after this fashion: "Wise men
and counsellors, list vo to the sad
news: Our capable nd efficient Rond
Boss hath been soi?.cd with a falnl
illness and is now dead. Tiierefore, it
pleaseth tho King to appoint in his
place Hans Schneider, whom yo all
know as a good mixei- or drinks "
Having spoken thus, Nero frowned up
on the Wise men, and spoko ngnin:
"List ye further unto me: The ail
inent. that smote the Road Ross also
smoto the honest Keeper of t)io Coin.
He too is a denll one. And for that
iob 1 wouldst have Olo Olson of the
Royal Bar."" Again tho King frowned
upon the Wise men. and for n third
time spoko unto thtm:
"Thus doth the King say unto his
Wise men: Nero groweth old and
wouldst renounce the throne. And for
thy now King I give thee Pat Shaun
nessy, who knoweth a few things about
King and "
TJius spoke tho King unto his Wiso
men. And when he hnd done speak
ing, he took the Kingly Crown and
placed it upon the head of l'nt Shaun
nessy; and he loosed from his girdlo
the key to the Coin Box, and passed it
unto Olo Olson. Then he gave a grub
hoe unto linns Schneider and com
manded him that he build roads. Where
upon the King looked nt tho Wise
men and Isu.ghed. aloud. Now when tho
wise men saw tlje King laugh aloud
they understood it not. And one of
them arose, nnd said unto Nero:
"I'rithee, Nero, why lnughest thou?
Didst thou ,not quit a $ll),(H)i job, and
now with thy name olf the payroll thou
canst be gay and smile upon us!"
And Nero arose and looked at the
wise meiv And wliee ho hail looked at
them he leughed n.;an. And ns he
laughed he placed (he first finger of
his left hand acninst the side of his
nose ami informed them thnsly: "Nev
er miiid little Willie; I'm going in the
Bridge Business." Having thus spok
en, Nero went his way.

invented the scheme, it was a simple
thing for him to get in the Bridge
Hummcs!-. And Nero un.l King Put and
die Olion u nd Mans Schneider met to
gether at tho lfoyai Bar and formed
themselves into a Company, which was
culled the Kin:s liridgc lluilders, and
Nero saw that it was good.
Now, King Put called untD him his
wise men and said nnto'them: "Tho
Spring rains have raised the devil with
the Bridges. What think yo that we
shouldst do about it?" Ami ero the
wiso men could give thought to the
King's words, thero arose Hans
Schneider, tho Rond Boss, who said to
tho King:
"Oh, King, verily, dost thou speak
the truth. That four-foot culvert over
Dry Creek runneth nigh onto half full
of Water. Think c not thn these
culverts shouldst be (inlatged 1 " And
Hans Kchncidcr' slit him 'down.
Then up rose Olo Olson, the Keeper
of the Coin, and, dropping his rohes
clofeiy abo'.it him, he said in a wiso
fashion:
"Mot Noble King, why shouldst we
parley and wastn words) What good,
prithee, cun come out of this delnyV
Didst not thy tribes give the money
with which to build bridges. Where
fore, Oh King, let us then enter into
a covenant with tne King's Bridge
Builders that they should build us large
bridges and costly." fo King But
arose, and nddresred tho wise men:
"Oh wiso counselors, thou dost show
good judgment thnt thou so ordereth
the bridge built. Bet tho covenant bo
mnde. " And it wns done.
Now tho wise men knew they had
been stung, but they held their peace
lesi they lose their jobs. And Nero
began the great task set for him by
King l'nt. And so needlessly and fre
quently did Nero build that ero long
the Coin llox was empty.
Ho Olo Olson went among tho tribe
men to collect more taxes, but the
tribesmen faltered nnd Wished not to
come through. "For they tulil him we
woiihht have an accounting with these
b'oiiil and Bridge lluilders tout we may
know what we get for our money."

And it all happened ns Nero has
