was considerable discussion here over
a statement made by former Senatpr

“all who know Senator Bourne know
that his public life has been discred

people of Oregon.
Bourne is expected to reply at once.
Montenegrins, the capture of that town

fied indorsement of the campaign,

support.

ture, are: President C. B. Wilmer, of
the Evangelical Ministers association;

700 Girl Students Coolly Quit Building in Four Minutes
SCHOOL IS FIRE-DEATH PROOF
Young Women Calmly March
Down Escapes as the Test
Alarm Is Sounded.
The Girls High school may not be
flreproof, but if the efforts of Miss
Jessie Muse, principal, count it surely
is deathproof today.
Unless a flee enveloped the building
in four short minutes, cutting off a'
mean? of egress, every one of its 700
students would be standing on the side
walk watching the flumes. So perfect
and rapid is the fire drill at the Girls
High school that it takes but four
minutes to empty the building of teach
ers, students and janitors.
And this time has been attained day
in and day out with the students as
sembled in every conceivable manner
From the class rooms, the girls leaving
by the fire escapes in twos, lhe build
ing can be emptied in even shorter
time. From the assembly room on the
fourth floor the four-minute schedule
has been worked out to a second.
"Usually it is thought that it takes
a much longer time to empty a school
building than it does,” said Miss Muse,
who is responsible for the efficiency
of the students in the drill. "If fire
drill is gotten down to some sort of
system and practiced often enough,
there is absolutely no danger from fire
in any school building. It isn't rea
sonable to suppose that a fire could
spread over a school building the size
of this in four minutes.
“Os course, you have to guard
against panics, in a panic your fire
drill goes to pieces and the students
fight to get out. The only way to
guard against a panic is to drill, drill
until each girl knows her station by
instinct. Then she goes through the
motions of the drill unconsciously. In
case of real fire the building would be
emptied before half of the students
kne<6 it was afire. They would think
that it was a drill.”
Miss Muse’s enthusiasm for the drill
is not merely because, of its necessity.
She believes that it is a physical exer
cise the students enjoy more than the
stereotyped calesthenlcs used in the
class room.
"They like the fire drill and enter
into the spirit of it,” she said in em
phasizing this feature, "and this en
thusiasm makes for efficiency.”

MILEAGE RULING
DUE IN 30 MFS
Counsel for Both Sides Will
Submit Arguments in Writ
ing-Hearing Ends.
The famous mileage “pulling” hear
ing before the state railroad commis
sion was concluded yesterday after
noon. after an agreement had been en
tered into by counsel for both sides to
submit all arguments in writing.
A decision is not looked for under 30
days, and it may be six weeks before
the fate of the traveling men's petition
is kryiwn
The railroad commission has granted
counsel approximately three weeks in
which to submit arguments, direct and
cross, and it will be at least a. week or
ten days after arguments are closed
before the commission will be ready to
rule
The record In the case will be tre
mendous and exhaustive. The com
mission is determined that this hearing
shall be final and conclusive.
Both sides are confident of victory
before the commission', but the greater
optimism undoubtedly is with the rail
road attorneys. They expect the com
mission to refuse the traveling men s
petition, upon the double ground of ab
stract justice and want of jurisdiction.

the plunging horses. With a violent

Just as the car whizzed by the horses

over his right leg. injuring him slightly.
Little Bertha also was thrown to the
