Southern Pacific Delays Bridge Construction Judge Bushey says It will be impos sible to complete the bridge this week. It seems the Southern Facifie was to have delivered .the piling necessary for the work one week ago Friday, but de layed the delivery until Thursday of last week. The contractors depending on tbe piles arriving on time had for several days been working their crews twelve hours a day at an extra expense to themselves of about $.00. I hen the piling failed to arrive and the crews had to be laid off for a few days. This worked a direct hard-ship on the con tractors as they had expended their money paying double wages for over time, only to have their efforts to get the bridge finished in time for the fair go for naught on account of the neglect of the Southern Pacific. - New Coats New Suits New Dresses ; Every express brings us more xats $6.95 to $24.50 SUITS $12.50 to $29.50 DRESSES : $8.75 to $17.45 Our Prices Always the Lowest. Gale &Co. Salem's Reception Impressed Draft Men Salem seemed to have a very sooth ing effect on tho 615 Liberty men from southern California. One of the men in charge said it was a hard crowd to handle, especially about "meal time and that at several places, the men had run over the oliieers at tne aoor or thw dining room. When they arrived in Salem, the boys were met by Spanish war veterans and Mexican border vet erans, carrying rifles in a business like way. When they stepped in tne armo ry, they were again met by army men with rifles and others on duty carrying the armv revolver. They were led to their places by men who had the army look. And then on top of all this care, when the boys stepped into the armory and saw the fine spread and the wo men in white standing ready to wait on them, there wasn't a boisterous man the bunch. They were gentle as lambs, notwithstanding the reports to the contrary. Anct.they left town in AT Companies I and K of the Third regi ment arrived at the fairgrounds at 2:30 and were supposed to stay about hall an hour. The companies are under the command of Colonel May. Company so did not come with this contingent While their stay was short there was nothing else ooing at the fair while the boys were there, as everything else tooa a back seat while everybody turned their entire attention to making the boys' visit one to be remembered evea when in the trenches in r ranee, hven "General Pershing" despite his 464 pounds was no attraction compared to the Oregon boys. 0 Tomorrow the body of Alexander L. Matheson, who died at Uoquiani, ash ington, June 21, will arrive in the city Since that date the body has been in the receiving crypt of the Hoqtiiam cemetery but has been sent here for burial in the Lee Mission cemetery. The body will be shipped in a sine lined sealed shipping ease and will be intern ed by Webb Clough. About three years ago Mr. and Mrs. Matheson bought the Matthews property near the tnglewood school house and intended making Salem their home. On account ef business Ratters, they were recalled to Hoquiam, where Mrj Matthesoa died. Mrs. Matheson intends within a short time to make her home in Kalem, living ia the home bought three years ago. Capital Journal Want Ads Oct Besults. I BUSICK'S STORE 118 S. COM'X. ST. 299 N.
