STATE OREGON THE UNION 1859 OFTLAND, OREGON, SATURDAY NEWS OF THE WEEK In a Condensed Form for Our Busy Readers. HAPPENINGS OF TWO CONTINENTS A Resume of the Less Important but Not Less Interesting Events of the Past Week. The new Russian cabinet is composed of reactionaries. San Francisco's water supply is now safe, but short. Idle men in San Francisco are refused food and made to go to work. San Francisco banks have reopened and are doing a good business. A new copyright law has been completed, but its passage by congress is doubtful. Military forces are after another bandit band in the province of Cavite, Philippine Islands. Attorney-General Moody is preparing to prosecute the Standard Oil and railroads for rebating. People of Zion City fight shy of meetings held by Dowie, at which he attempts to explain recent events. The United States has been accused of buying the plans of the British battleship Dreadnaught from a naval officer who stole them. James D. Phelan says the condition of thousands in California is pitiful, and it may be necessary to issue another appeal for public aid. Dowie is fatally ill with dropsy. Hermann's trial has been set for the first week in June. China opposes the immediate opening of Manchurian ports. Father Gapon has been executed by rebels for betraying them. The Senate committee has disagreed on procedure in the Smoot case. Democrats elected, their mayor and ten councilmen in the Omaha city elections. The California earthquake formed an island in Bolinas Bay, 30 miles from San Francisco. San Francisco banks are paying depositors through the mint, and the money stringency has been lessened. The labor situation in France is growing worse. Cavalry has been called to the scene of the rioting, and many workmen have been trampled under foot by troopers' horses. The California earthquake revealed a big graft in the erection of Stanford University buildings. Structures for which $6,000,000 were paid cost the contractor but $3,000,000. Senator Heyburn is seriously ill. Witte's resignation as premier of Russia has been accepted by the czar. Hearst has asked congress to appropriate another $2,500,000 for California. Three men were fatally injured in a riot between striking miners and Pennsylvania constabulary. Each side claims a majority of the senators in the question of court review on the railroad rate bill. Senator Morgan has a plan for the construction of the Panama canal which he has brought before the senate. The French government has arrested many labor leaders, imperialists and anarchists and is preparing for an outbreak. Millions of Chinese are learning English and are translating foreign scientific books. The Chinese Reform Association has worked wonders among the natives. The supply of food at San Francisco is running low. Mayor Schmitz has issued a statement saying anything in the way of funds, clothing and provisions, can be used. It is believed the senate will vote on the railroad rate bill this week. Great Britain may force Turkey to give up Tabah. Every library in San Francisco, except one, was destroyed. Peddlers have been captured in San Francisco selling relief supplies. Suit has been begun to oust the Standard Oil and its allies from Ohio. Dowie has returned to Zion City. He was welcomed by a small crowd. Prince von Radolon will likely be named as the successor of Chancellor von Buelow. Premier Witte will be appointed president of the council of the empire by Czar Nicholas. Secretary Metcalf has reported recommending an immediate rebuilding in San Francisco. Roosevelt has approved the report. Luke E. Wright, United States ambassador to Japan, says the Chinese should receive better treatment at the hands of the Americans than is now accorded them. Senators from Oregon and Washington have received telegrams from the lumber interests in those states opposing free lumber for the purpose of rebuilding San Francisco and other wrecked cities. FIRE PANIC IN BIG HOSPITAL. Blazing Laundry Causes Patients to Flee Half-Glad. San Francisco, May 4.—The 700 patients in the general hospital at the Presidio were thrown into a panic at 4:15 o'clock this morning by the cry of "fire." At that moment flames were discovered in the hospital laundry, which was only a few yards away. The close proximity of the two buildings gave rise to the fear that the hospital would be destroyed. In anticipation of such a contingency hurried arrangements were made for the removal of the patients to a place of safety. For a few minutes, until the fire in the laundry was gotten under control and there was no danger of the flames spreading beyond that building, pandemonium reigned among the hundreds of patients. Those who were not dangerously ill, or could help themselves, jumped from their cots and beds, and, hastily doning what clothes they could find, fled from the hospital out into the cool morning air. Many of the indisposed men and women did not wait to secure their clothes, but wrapped themselves in bedding and made their exit as quickly as possible. In more than one instance men and women fled out into the air with nothing but their night clothes. Scores of patients who had the physical strength stopped sufficiently long to assist more weak and unstrung men and women from the hospital. Within 15 minutes after the alarm was given the majority of the patients had left the hospital building and stood in groups or lay upon the ground upon bed clothes, watching the firemen and soldiers fight the flames in the laundry. When the flames had been extinguished the nurses, physicians and soldiers turned their attention to the patient-refugees, and assisted in taking them back to their cots and beds in private rooms and wards. Men and women became hysterical during the progress of the fire, and it was with difficulty that many of them could be induced to return to the hospital. It is feared that the shock to many of the more seriously sick patients will have a serious if not fatal effect. When the fire was discovered in the hospital a general alarm was sounded. Besides the regular post fire department hundreds of soldiers turned out to fight the flames. It was only by hard work that the flames were confined to the laundry, which, with its contents, was entirely destroyed, and prevented from spreading to the general hospital. Companies Will Be Generous, but Not Exceed Legal Liability. New York, May 4.—The Tribune today says: Representatives of both foreign and American fire insurance companies, who were in the city yesterday, discussed action to effect a compromise in the adjustment of losses by the San Francisco fire. The great companies express a strong purpose to be not only just, but generous in cases of doubt, but one insurance president said: "The adjusters for this company will not be allowed to waive the conditions of its policies, nor the conditions and restrictions of its charters. We have no more right to pay a loss occasioned by earthquake than we have to pay a loss of life. We are not an earthquake insurance company, nor a life insurance company." Insurance men estimate that the companies will ultimately pay from 60 to 75 per cent of the aggregate amount of the risk. The message from London insurance companies to adjusters in Oakland, published this morning, should have read: "Under any circumstances, the British offices will only pay the losses for which they are legally liable, since to go beyond their contracts would be illegal. "They cannot recognize any liability for damage by earthquake where no fire ensued, nor for damage by fire to fallen or partly fallen buildings, nor for damages to buildings pulled down or destroyed by order of the San Francisco authorities." San Mateo, Cal., May 4.—The losses in San Mateo County resulting from the recent earthquake can never be even approximately estimated. Practically every building in the county suffered some damage in chimneys, plaster, broken furniture or crockery. Here, as elsewhere, brick and stone buildings suffered the most. The loss of life was small. In Half-Moon Bay a painter and two children were killed in the collapse of an old office building. The heaviest losses were in Redwood City, where the new $150,000 courthouse was almost totally destroyed. China Hates to Admit Fact. London, May 4.—A dispatch from Pekin to the Times today says that the only thing delaying the settlement of the French claims growing out of the Nanchang outrage of last February is China's reluctance to issue an imperial edict admitting that the magistrate committed suicide. President Signs Appropriations. Washington, May 4.—President Roosevelt today signed the bills passed by congress making appropriations of $100,000 for Mare Island navy-yard and $70,000 to meet emergencies in the post-office department in California. New Age LIMIT OF INSURANCE PAID Heavy Loss in San Mateo County. China Hates to Admit Fact FRANK SMITH KILLED STOLEN CAP IDENTIFIES FUGITIVE Fugitive Had Doubled on His Track and Was Heading Toward Portland When Shot by Bosse. New Era, Ore., May 1.—Frank Smith is dead. The desperado was shot and killed at 11:10 o'clock by Harry Draper, who was in charge of the bloodhounds that he had brought from Spokane to help in hunting the fugitive down. After being surrounded in the woods between the Willamette river and the railroad tracks at this place this morning, posses began dynamiting the underbrush to bring him out. Draper, accompanied by the dogs, went into the timber, and Smith was discovered behind a log. He made a desperate attempt to shoot, but Draper anticipated him, shooting him through the neck and killing him instantly. Smith bore no wounds, showing conclusively that he had not been wounded by any of the previous shots fired at him. Crouching in the underbrush between the railroad tracks and the Willamette river, about half a mile from this place, surrounded by posses of armed men who were dynamiting the woods to drive the fugitive out, Frank Smith, the desperado, who made a sensational escape from the city jail at Portland, and since his flight last week has killed three officers, made his last stand. After murdering Policeman Hanlon at Oregon Burn, Smith was next located near Woodburn by Sheriff Shaver of Clackamas and Captain O. D. Henderson of Woodburn, whom he mortally wounded, both dying at Salem a few hours later. The bandit then disappeared as completely as if the earth had opened up and enfolded him. Many rumors were prevalent of the murderer being seen during the last few days in various parts of the district where he was being hunted, but nothing definite could be found until this morning, when, weary and worn with his long flight, he was driven into the brush. The gray cap, slightly torn in one seam, which was stolen from the Canby postoffice, and which Smith were, proved his undoing. The stolen cap belonged to Willie Stuniger, who lives near New Era. Willie was pumping water for the cows this morning when he saw a man pass along the road wearing his own cap. Willie recognized the cap at once and gave the alarm. This positive identification brought out the posses in force, and 200 armed men with dogs were presently hunting down the fugitive. Smith stopped to talk to Flagman Amishiah on the Southern Pacific tracks. While they were in conversation one of the numerous armed parties that has been scouring the country appeared down the road. "Well, I must take to the woods," said Smith. With that he dashed into the brush. He was surrounded between the railway tracks and the Willamette river, half a mile below New Era. MONEY NEEDED FOR RELIEF. Red Cross Sends $300,000, and Has Another $1,000,000. Washington, May 1.—Three hundred thousand dollars were forwarded by wire by the American Red Cross today to James D. Phelan, chairman of the Red Cross and relief committee in San Francisco, and he was advised that $1,000,000 more is at the disposal of the committee. Judge W. W. Morrow, president of the California branch of the Red Cross, advised the Red Cross today that it will be better from this time on for the society to send money to California rather than food and provisions, as the immediate needs are provided for. Dr. Edward T. Devine, special representative of the Red Cross at San Francisco, made the following report today on supplies sent to earthquake sufferers: "I have tabulation from Quartermaster Devol of supplies reported to have been received up to April 28 and of supplies ordered to be ordered. I show the whole remarkable discrimination and intelligent purchases. Supplies received: "Five carloads of stoves, 1,850 stovepipe joints, 28 carloads of forage, 1,600 tons and 25 carloads of tentage, two cars and 250,000 feet of lumber, 160 tons of lime, 170 tons of medical supplies, two carloads of acid and chemicals, seven carloads of wood, 241 cars and four steamerloads of subsistence stores, 1,570 tons of flour, five cars of fresh meats, 185 cars of miscellaneous stores, one car of oranges, five cars of clothing, two cars of salt, camp outfit of Los Angeles, 28 cars." Two Slight Shocks Cause No Alarm. San Francisco, May 1.—Two slight earthquake shocks at an interval of an hour were felt here early this morning. They were of the same nature as a dozen other shocks that have been felt since the big quake of April 18. No damage was done this morning, and there was no alarm. NO. 2. UNREST IN ORIENT. Russia Is Now Planning Another Invasion of Chinese Territory. St. Petersburg, April 30.—In spite of the defeat of her ambitions in Manchuria and Kwantung, and the obstacles met with by M. Pokotiloff, the Russian minister to China, in his negotiations at Pekin, Russia is steadily pushing forward with the purpose of occupying another big slice of China, namely, the two eastern provinces of Mongolia, covering the route of the proposed railroad from Baikal to Pekin, which, as announced by the Associated Press, February 20, has been given over to the Russo-Chinese bank. Under the guise of the innocent-sounding name of "'geographic ethnographic expedition for purely scientific purposes," a party headed by Colonel Novitsky, one of the brilliant younger members of the general staff, will leave DEMOCRATIC TICKET—OFFICIAL United States Senator, long term John M. Gearin. Congressman, Second District, J. H. Graham. Governor, George E. Chamberlain. Secretary of State, P. H. Sroat. State Treasurer, J. D. Matlock. Supreme Judge, T. G. Hailey. Superintendent Public Instruction, J. H. Ackerman (Rep.). State Printer, J. Scott Taylor. Attorney-General, R. A. Miller. Labor Commissioner, O. P. Hoff (Rep.). St. Petersburg in the middle of May to survey the hitherto unexplored region between the Manchurian frontier and Urga. Though the expedition nominally is to be under the auspices of the Imperial Geographical Society, it is believed it will be financed and officered by the general staff, and its composition will be almost purely military. The strategic aims, in fact, are so thinly covered that it is doubtful if it will be accompanied by any representative of the geographical society. The region to be explored covers the hazy "Mongolian Desert," in which during the war mysterious Japanese armies were supposed to be hovering to strike the Russian rear and into which small scouting detachments of Japanese actually penetrated long distances. Colonel Novitzky's expedition probably will find the work already well under way, as the Russian force stationed at Urga certainly has not been idle during its long stay there. NEED HELP FO% MANY WEEKS Devine Urges Nation Not to Slacken Enthusiasm in Giving. San Francisco, April 30.—Dr. Devine, of the National Red Cross, tonight issued the following statement: "It is important for the entire country to understand that the loss of homes and property in San Francisco has not been exaggerated. Expectations have been aroused and plans have been made, based on telegrams and newspaper reports, of large contributions for relief, and these expectations should not be disappointed. "The distribution of food will have to be continued until there are enough stores in which to buy on a money basis and then it can be gradually diminished, but relief of other kinds is now and will be required for weeks to come. Sick and delicate persons will need care for months. Inmates of institutions which have been destroyed must be established elsewhere, and on some plan yet to be devised families which cannot get started otherwise may have to be given a helping hand. "It is not intended to encourage chronic dependence, but quick, generous and efficient relief is needed here for a very large number of persons whose homes and means of livelihood have been destroyed." GOVERNMENT LOST MILLIONS. Appropriation of $3,387,630 Needed for San Francisco. Washington, April 30.—The secretary of war today forwarded to the secretary of the treasury for transmission to congress urgent deficiency estimates of appropriations amounting to $3,387,630. This amount is required for the service of the fiscal year ending June 30, 1906, for the purpose of replacing military stores destroyed by earthquake and fire at San Francisco; also for repairing damaged buildings in Island and Alcatraz in the harbor of San Francisco, and the repair of damage to the general hospital at the Presidio, San Francisco. Kill Odessa Police Chief. Odessa April 30—The chief of police, who played such a prominent role in the October massacres here and a policeman, were assassinated by revolutionists here today in broad daylight. The plot was far-reaching, and contemplated also the assassination of Assistant Chief of Police Poltavachenko and several other policemen. A young girl named Jerebetha threw a bomb at Poltavachenko, who was on his way to the hospital to visit one of the wounded police. Her aim was poor, and the officer was not harmed. The girl was seriously wounded by Poltavachenko's orderly. Railroad Line Indicted. Clarksburg, W. Va., April 30.—The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad Company was indicted five times by the federal grand jury to pay for alleged violation of the interstate commerce law in failure to distribute cars to coal operators. The indictments are the first of the kind ever found in the United States. The fine, in case of conviction, may be $5,000 in each case. The merciful man is merciful to his beast, also to his wife. One of the commonest of delusions and one of the fatalest is where a man thinks he's in a hurry. The Senate might easily learn all about the pure food question by reading the news columns of the daily papers. An English author says that he wrote a story in his sleep and received pay for it. He simply lies in a peculiar way. At a recent food exhibit in Berne, Switzerland, 1,785 varieties of sausage were shown. Every family must have its own brand over there. Malls are carried on deer routes in Alaska. There are some dear routes here, too, if the post office appropriation bill is to be depended on. It appears that Mr. Shonts' salary as president of the Clover Leaf is only $12,000 a year. How Chauncey Deew must despise a road like that. It also may be observed that when the unfortunate millionaire wishes to regain his health he lives as nearly as he can like the poorest of his fellows. When a sartorial master like Edward of England turns his imagination loose, we get results. Beside the royal blue what becomes of the Quaker gray? The life insurance McCurdys still have one claim to distinction in being about the only persons who are made defendants daily in suits from $3,000,000 up. New York has discovered already that the subway, which it halted as the eighth wonder of the world, is "dirty and unsanitary." So is there a fly in every ointment. A London man recently paid $6,000 for an orchid. He might have bought an entire prune ranch in Arizona for that price. Some people seem to have queer ideas of the value of things. Smoking cars for women are now being run on English railways. The future hubby over there may complain that his wife's cigarettes are not as good as those his mother used to roll. There might be some chance of the government clerks becoming reconciled to a 70-year age limit if the provision was made sweeping enough to compel congressmen also to back away from the public trough at that age. A Baltimore paper refers to "Hamlet," the well-known play by W. Shakespeare. We hope we do not err in assuming that our contemporary has reference to the W. Shakespeare who formerly resided at Stratford-on-Avon, England. Two Chicago boys who amused themselves by shooting at lanterns on railway trains, thus endangering the lives of passengers, have been sentenced not to touch firearms for two years. This awful punishment will no doubt cause all other young owners of revolvers to throw away their weapons and resolve to lead blameless lives. --- For some time past tradition has been ovetset in the British navy by the substitution of bugle calls for the boat-swain's whistle. The admiralty has decided to restore the pipe. This will be a great boon to writers of sea ballads and nautical comic operas, to which the "bosun's" pipe is as necessary as the rose to lyric poets. Japan is feeling its oats when the Minister of War tehs the Diet that at some convenient date in the future the Japanese government will urge the British government to reform its army organization. It will throw John Bull into a contemplative state of mind to be admonished about his domestic concerns by this suddenly developed naval power in the vicinity of Hong Kong and Singapore and Sydney and Calcutta. Why should the American citizen or citizeness who pays $500 in good money to be enrolled in an "America's smart set" be made a target for the mordant jeers of an inconsiderate populace? How are we ever going to have an American aristocracy if the crowds in the bleachers are permitted to paralyze exalted ambitions by hooting at the patient performers in the field? If we are not to have a "Burke's Peerage" edited by society writers and sold on subscription to people who want their names mentioned, we are left with no standards of aristocracy whatever. It is very evident that a permanent social distinction can never be established in the United States if grand juries are to be forever prying into the circumstances by which the title to social standing is acquired. For a good many years it has been the habit of some Representatives in Congress to gird at the "brutality" of the wicked boys at West Point and Annapolis. The young satraps haze and are hazed. They even fight, upon occasion; a crime unpardonable in youths bred to fight, if necessity arrives, hereafter. Besides, the rascals wear buttons and things and are much more brilliant in externals than the civilian. and yet what are they, after all, but Uncle Sam's charity boys, as their statesmanlike critics tell them to encourage them? Most of them come to the academies by the democratic route of competitive examination, but something survives of the curious old prejudice which was once keen against West Point in particular. No military and naval aristocracy here! No bedilzen popinjays to sneer at the plain people first and enslave them afterward! Charles M. Schwab, the young millionaire who was once the head of the steel trust and is now completing in New York the costliest private residence in the world, has once again remarked that education and culture unit young men for success in life. Perhaps this is largely true so far as Schwab's observation extends. But it must be understood that the brain of Charles M. Schwab has a very limited horizon. Great successes are being achieved every day for the development and betterment of humanity, which a Schwab can no more appreciate and comprehend than a pig can understand art. The pig—come to think of it—has a tiny little brain. But every fraction of its intellectual energy is devoted to the welfare of its stomach. You see a lot of so-called human beings that seem to be built on the same plan. There is a sort of fatality leading them to the accumulation of money. They have marvelous cunning in getting rich, but if you touch their minds on any other question you may find them blank. The man who thinks of nothing but making money may not be capable of realizing that other people can think of nobler purposes. Like the pig, with its snout so deep in the trough that its eyes are buried in the slop, its human prototype may also be unable to see or think of anything in the world but the one business of getting all that's to be got. It is right and proper that the pig should have no thought but for its stomach—it is made that way. But with man it is different; to have a pig's mind he must acquire it by killing the best there is in him. By will he renounces manhood and debases himself to the level of the animal. He spills no blood, but he murders a man to make a pig. It is the basest of sulcides, and perhaps the commonest. It is right and proper, too, that a man should make all the money he can honestly and use wisely. The man who makes money, as a means to an end, is not to be despised. He is doing his part of the world's work, and the part is no small or ignominious one. But there are other duties in the world deserves making money. There are qualities in the human mind and soul infinitely more important than those which make large accumulations of money possible. ORIGIN OF THE NAME TEXAS. Data in Old Geography Leads to Be- Hef that It Came from "Tecas." Edward W. Heusinger of San Antonio has just added to his collection of old and rare books a geography which was published in 1747, says the New York Tribune. The maps in this book are remarkably well executed and are interesting in that they show the parts of the world as they were known at that time. On one of the maps the northwestern part of North America is shown as "parts undiscovered." Australia was also one partly undiscovered and it is shown as the land of "New Holland," with New Guinea and "Vau Dieman's Land," now called the island of Tasmania, as one supposed continent. New Zealand, too, is shown as a partly discovered new land. The Hawaiian islands had not been heard of. The Atlantic Ocean was at that time called the "Western Ocean." What is now the Pacific Ocean was called the "Great South Sea," and the Caribbean Sea was then known as the "North Sea." Another important map in those days was that of Mexico, known as "New Spain," and what is now Texas was then the "Province of Louisiana." The French settlement of "Natchikoches" is shown and the countries of the Natez and Apache Indians are indicated and it is interesting to note the "Rio de Norte," which, according to this wonderful map, rises among some mountains in a land about where South Dakota now is. Mr. Heusinger says one important factor in the text of this work is the description of certain Indian tribes "toward the North River" (Rio Grande), known as the "Tecas," was then the name for the reformed Indians living in the missions, for it speaks of them as "having embraced Christianity" and "being the more passionate lovers of the Spaniards," Texas was therefore, no doubt, derived from the word "Tecas," he says. Active Employment. "So you want employment in the weather bureau?" "We want a man who can keep the cold and warm wave signals changing as fast as the weather shifts."—Washington Star.

"Come," she cried, "forsake thy drudging Life's delights are few and grudging; What hath man of all his striving, All his planning and contriving, Here beneath the sky? When the grave opens to receive him Wealth and wit and honors leave him— Love endures for aye!" But I answered: "I am plowing. When with straight and even furrow All the field is covered through, I will follow." Love passed by. I was busy with my sowing, When Love passed by. "Come," she cried, "give 'er thy tolling For thy moll thou hast but molling— Follow me, where meadows fertile Bloom unown with rose and myrtle, Laughing to the sky; Laugh for joy the thousand flowers Birds and brooks—the laughing hours All unnoted fly." But I answered: "I am sowing. When my acres all are planted, Gladly to thy realm enchanted I will follow." Love passed by. Ripened sorrows art thou sheaving. If the heart lie fallow, vain is Garnered store. Thy wealth of grain is Less than Love's least sigh. Haste thee—for the hours fast dwindle Ere the pyre of Hope shall kindle In life's western sky." But I answered: "I am reaping. When with song of youth and malden, Home the hock-cart comes, full-laden. I will follow." Love passed by. I had gathered in my harvest, When Love passed by. "Stay," I called—to her, swift speeding, Turning not, my cry unheeding— "Stay, O Love, I fain would follow, Stay thy flight, oh, fleet-winged swallow Cleaving twilight sky! I am old and worn and weary, Void my fields and heart—and dreary, With thee would I fly. Garnered woe is all my harvest, Sad ghosts of my dead hopes haunt me Fierce regrets, like demons, me— Stay! —I follow!" Love passed by. Look Upon This Country Merely as Place to Get Wealth. Place to Get Wealth. The Chinaman, unlike the European, regards America as only temporarily his home, preserves his national customs and peculiarities, and finally returns, carrying his savings with him, says William J. Bryan in Success. He is not attracted by our institutions and brings with him no love of American ideals. To him the United States is a field to be exploited, but nothing more. The European casts in his lot with us, mingles with the population, and, in a few generations, his identity is lost in our composite race. He has neither peculiarities of thought nor of dress to distinguish him from those among whom he labors, and his children are soon an indistinguishable part of the community. Not so with the Chinese. They are not only distinguished by their dress, language and habits, but they remain entirely separate and apart from those among whom they dwell. This difference is due not only to the wide dissimilarity in history, tradition and habit, but also to the absence of any permanent or patriotic interest in the land in which they sojourn. It would require generations to bring our people down to a plane upon which they could compete with the Chinese, and this would involve a large impairment of the efficiency of their work. It is not just to the laboring men of the United States that they should be compelled to labor upon the basis of Chinese coolie labor or stand idle and allow their places to be filled by an allen race with no thought of permanent identification with our country. The American laborer not only produces the wealth of our nation in time of peace, but he is also its sure defender in time of war—who will say that his welfare and the welfare of his family shall be subordinated to the interests of those who ablde with us for but a time, who, while with us, are exempt from draft or military burden, and who, on their return, drain our country of its currency? A foreign landlord system is almost universally recognized as a curse to a nation, because the rent money is sent out of the country. Chinese immigration on a large scale would give us the evil effects of foreign landlordism in addition to its other objectionable features. One Viewpoint. "Don't you think it would be a popular idea for you to have private baths here in the hotel?" suavely insinuated a slightly hypercritical tourist from the North. "Well, I think it would be the proper checker to have 'em private if I was to have 'em at all," replied the landlord of the tavern at Polkville, Ark. "It would be sorter embarrassin', 'pears to me, for the travellin' public to bathe here in the office or out on the front porch, although I don't know but what it might be popular with the by-passers."—Puck.

E. Chamberlain. They watched with a noteworthy degree of approval the beginning of his course ‘as chief executive of the state. He was then apparently untrammeled by political entanglements. He was free to act independently of the bosses. His ante-lection promises were yet fresh in his mind; and he seemed honorably disposed to respect them, But gradually a change came o'er his official dream. It was disturbed not infrequently by a political nightmare too strong to repel by a wave of the executive hand. It obstructed the peaceful progress of his well-begun career at times, occasionally prompt: ing his friends in all yparties to ques- tion the motive of his apparent change of heart in the matter of directing the Progress of important affairs of state. However, nothing has occurred in the official career of Governor Cham- Derlain to distract the people of the state so seriously as the paltriness of his excuse for refusing to call a spe- cial session of the legislature for the purpose of appropriating money for the relief of that great mass of suf. fering humanity huddled together in the storm and fire and smoke about the ruined and quaking walls of San Francisco, dying of starvation and ex- posure and calling piteously to the world for help and protection. ‘Thou- _sands of Oregon people and their rel- atives were among the suffering and dying; and yet the much-lauded gov- ernor of this great commonwealth sat Placidly in his easy/‘chair at Salem, _daaf to the dutcriés for help and mer- cy from mangled and homeless men, women and children alike. Individ- uals were delving deep into their pock- ets for means of relief for those in such dire distress; but not a reassur- ing word from the state; not a move- ment by the governor to intimate that he was ready and willing to help offi- cially to assist them. The state of Oregon was never, in all its history, so shamelessly discredited by lack of official intercession; its people were never so shocked by such a display of caloused indifference on the part of Its executive officer. Will they for- get it in the noise and uproar of a political campaign? We shall see! Senators Charles A. Fulton and John M. Gearin telegraphed to Gov. ernor Chamberlain from Washington, urgently requesting him to call a spe- cial session of the Oregon legislature for the purpose of helping to relieve | the Glutressed amd ruined people of] Pea ler plate: wal demacurne “hat he is, Chamberlain refused to do so on the petty ground that the legisla ture is Republican and it might take advantage of the situation to elect a successor to Senator Gearin, whom he had appointed on the death of Senator John H. Mitchell. Do the people of Oregon want bet- ter evidence than that of the dema: | gogic character of Governor Cham- Derlain? Does not that circumstance alone show that our chief executive's office at Salem is at this time con. trolled and directed absolutely by pet- ty politics? If nothing else could disturb him, the great Carifornia calamity should have awakened Chamberlain from his politi- cal nightmare and caused him to help officially in the work of sending aid to the thousands of sufferers in our neighbor state. But he sat there like a sphinx, insensible to his duty and deat to the appeals for help, because, forsooth, the Republican legislature might avail itself of the opportunity to elect a successor to a Democratic senator from this state! ‘There was no danger that the leg- Aslature would have done anything of | However, around these points— governor, senator and sherift—wil ‘center the fight on the first Monday ‘in June, and between now and then. Incidentally to the senatorial fight, there may also be some deflection of votes from Republican candidates for the legislature, here and in other counties, and it would not be surpris. ing if an unusual number of Demo- crats slipped in throughout the state: yet we apprehend that the legislature will be strongly Republican, as usual, and that the election of any Democratic candidate from this county is improb- able. Still, as has been remarked, pol- ities is an uncertain business, and nobody can be absolutely sure in ad- vance of what will happen. THE CATHOLIC CHURCH AND THE NEGRO. the kind. It is composed of men of ‘character—men whose hearts, for the most part, are filled with charity; men who heard and heeded the cry for assistance and who yearned for ‘an opportunity to render it; but Gov- ernor Chamberlain put up his official palm against the appeal for help, shut his official eyes and again lapsed into his political slumber. Senators Fulton and Gearin were actuated solely by honorable and hu- manitarian motives in their request that the governor call a special ses- sion speedily in this great emergency. What was the motive that actuated ooo Chamberlain in refusing to hear their request? The motive that actuates the petty politician, having once tasted the flavor of official pap, to become a demagogue and a cheap par- tisan cheat. Hisexcuse was that of the ars politician whose greed for office is greater than his love for suf- fering humanity—a cheap, narrow politician whose conception of public office is limited to the bulk of his lust for personal agrandizement. - Chamberlain is a Southerner whose sympathies are yet with the South and, therefore, little may be expected from him here; but this one gigantic official blunder, suggested solely by the paltriest kind of petty politics, cannot be overlooked by the voters of the state of Oregon in the present campaign. It portrays the men's character too clearly to warrant their trusting him again with such a respon- sibility. FOCI OF THE BATTLE. That the main fight of the June cam. paign will be concentrated on senator land governor is now even mora, dp: [parent and certain than it was before lthe primaries—when it was clear ‘enough. ‘The Republican candidates tor state offices, except governor, will be elected without a struggle, and as a matter of course. But there will be la tremendous effort to re-elect Cham: Inerlain governor, and to defeat ‘Bourne, the regular legal Republican [nominee for senator, with Gearin, who lit must be admitted, politics aside, Is la strong, capable, worthy man.

He is not and never has been a factionist, only a quiet, oval Republican in the ranks, always [faithful to the party and to what he eoneiv @ to be his duty to his state and county, He always abided by the will of the majority of his party and the people, believing that the major- ty should rule and that progress and peace were preferable to. wrangling and strife. ‘This is undoubtedly a heavily Republican state; it ought to have a Republican governor, and so retake its place politically where it belongs. It is asserted and reiterated that factional strife has ceased and that party unity and harmony have been restored. If so, if these be not false professions and pretenses, then Mr. Withycombe will be elected by a large majority, beyond a doubt, because no- body doubts that he is honest, capa ble and worthy, Is Portland a Republican city?

Should the Republi cans of this city not pull themselves together, if Republicanism means any: thing at all, on this leading and most important or notable state office, and give Mr. Withycombe a big rousing majority here? We think this is a duty of Republi- cans, as such, and we believe they are going to perform it. if party amounts to any- thing at all, now is the time in this case to show it. If professions of par- ty unity and harmony are not utterly insincere and false, now is the time to prove this to a waiting state and THE NEW AGE, PORTLAND, OREGON country. following editorial expression | As to senator, the case 1s more com ‘plicated. That there will be a Repub: lican groundswell against Mr. Bourne ‘everybody knows; what nobody yet knows fs its scope, extent, force and ‘effect. The difference between this office and the governorship is that as to the latter the June election will set tle the matter definitely and absolute ly, but as to the senatorship the leg islature is the final arbiter, and not withstanding the signature of “State ‘ment No. 1” or what not, there is lia ble to be a hot kettle of fish on fry in Salem next winter. | It may be that if, as will almost cer. [tainly be the case, the legislature has a large Republican majority, Mr. Bourne, as the popular nominee, by a small plurality, will be elected with lout opposition or friction, but this ‘seems not to be expected by anybody. Bestaes, a probably stronger minority than usual there certainly will be [considerable number of Republican members opposed to the election of Mr, Bourne, and some, perhaps, who will carry their opposition to an ex. treme point. It is within the range of possibilities that these opposing ‘elements may combine so as to defeat |the Republican nominee. | On the other hand, having received the nomination under the primary law, ‘Mr. Bourne will undoubtedly claim the office and insist upon his election by the legislature. If he hasn't votes enough to accomplish this, he almost certainly will have enough to prevent the election of any one else, and to ‘opponents. If he could “hold up” the legislature some years ago, and pre- vent an organization and all legislation, as he is credited or charged with do- ing, surely he could do the same now, if he chose to pursue similar tactics. But all this is as yet nebulous in em. bryo. After the June election and its results are scanned and analyzed, we can tell much better what Is likely to happen at Salem next winter, though even then there may be a good deal of guesswork about it. ‘The only other office about which there is any doubt, or that will be ‘contested warmly and strongly, in ni county, is that of Sheriff. The present sheriff, a Democrat, was ae Into office two years ago on the ‘crest of a wave of “moral reform,” ‘but won not so much after all on that account as because his opponent was looked upon and generally considered 8 4 chronic pap-sucker and grafter How well Sheriff Word has lived up to promises and the anticipations of hhis ardent supporters we shall take occasion to notice more particularly hereafter. It may be said at this time, however, that hé no doubt was direct- ly instrumental in breaking up public gambling in Portland, but it might be added that any sheriff would have been forced to do the same by public sentiment, or at least that no sheriff in future could allow open and “Ii censed” gambling such as was carried on under the Williams and former ad- ministrations, As to strict and cour- ageous enforcement of all laws, we have casually noticed that saloons are all open on Sunday, contrary to law. We are not saying here that it would be| wise to try to have a tightly-closed town in this respect, only suggesting that it is not quite consistent for the admirers of the sheriff to claim too much, or hold him up as a demigod Dh catia Wade See eeeleetae | The New Age heartily endorses the following editorial expression on the ‘above subject from the pen of Editor ‘Chase of the Washington Bee. It is worthy of careful perusal and con sideration by every colored citizen in terested in the wellbeing and advance ‘ment of his race: “The colored people in this country have been considering the invitation ‘extended to them to join the Catholic ‘church, This proposition is being se- riously considered by some of the leading representatives of the col ‘ored race. It is argued that the Cath olic church is less prejudiced to the "Negro than any other denomination in the world, It is also true that most all other denominations have adopted [rules and passed resolutions to bat lout the Negro. The white Presby. terian church, the white Methodist, and a number of the white Southern Baptist are opposed to the Negro. It ip also a notorious fact that the Cath- olic church is receiving more consid: ‘eration from this administration than lany other denomination, which shows 'enat it is a strong factor In tho body politic. Since the Catholic church is favorably disposed toward the Negro and will give him greater protection than any other denomination or polit. feal party, there is nothing for the Negro to do but to join the Catholic church, If all anti-Catholic denomi- nations are opposed to the Negro and the Catholic church, and since the Catholic church gets what it wants, it will be good politics for the Negro ‘to look out for himself and go where it will bo eolMle bese tntereat. We Inever read im the public press of any Catholic convention or Catholic church denouncing the Negro and declaring that the Negro is not good enough for that church, ‘This church has but one God. The white Methodist, Baptist and Presbyterians declare that tha Negro is not good enough for him to serve God with them, They must pray separate and apart from them. The Negro hag deelared that there is not much efficacy in such a religion. Till- man, Vardaman, Williams and their associates belong to the Southern Methodist denomination, and so long as they continue to be members of that denomination there is no hope for the Negro Baptist, Presbyterian and Methodist. The Catholics suc- ceed because they are united and de- mand recognition. The administra- tion will not refuse this church. There is no department under this govern. ment that will attempt to impose upon a Catholic. When the Pope of Rome and the Catholic church speak there is something doing. Let the. Negro try the Catholic church. ' A RICH MAN'S LAW. | ‘The comments of the state press on the working of the primary nomina- /uion law in the late election are vari- ous, and of course not in accord, some |papers expressing the opinion that it |i8 on the whole satisfying, others con- demning and ridiculing it. ‘The New Age has discussed it heretofore con- siderably, conceding that it had its g00d points and would effect some ‘good results, but at the same time ‘Pointing out its bad features, and the event so far seems to have justified both our commendation and our crit icism, owe restures ot tipctaey ox athe one result of its operation, which ren- ders it subject to criticism, which the Press of the state generally agree is bad, and to which The New Age has repeatedly alluded, is that it does not give @ poor man much of a chance to get an office, at least a state office, or to be nominated for congress. Aa one editr facetiously said, “It is a Poor man’s law; that is, it will make a man poor if he tries to get a nomi- nation.” i Take the contest for United States senator; the man with the most money, or who used the most, won the nomination, and for that reason. We do not mean to intimate that any, votes were bought outright, or that anything illegitimate was done, but the money was used, in large quanti- ties, undoubtedly with the result of influencing many voters. A sreat| many men do not eare much who Is nominated or elected to any partic- ular office; they know none of the candidates personally; but if one of | rhe candidates has money with which | ‘0 hire a locally influential man in - every precinct and neighborhood to | work for him, to represent to his | neighbors that he is the best man, to urge them to vote for him as a favor to the worker, a great many votes will thereby be gained, and gained be ‘cause this candidate had the money to hire these thousand or so special Jworkers, He had a right to do this, but it puts the man of small means at a disadvantage, because he cannot hire ‘similar work done. | ‘The same Is true in a less degree of ‘county and ail offices. The man with ‘the Jong purse has the advantage, and ‘the man of small means has but a slight chance to win a nomination. There are other defects in the law, but this, we think, is the worst objec tion to it, and it seems to be one that cannot be remedied, ENTHUSIASM IS GENERAL FOK CANDIDATE WITHYCOMBE. It may already be seen, thus early in the campaign, that Dr. Jas. Withy combe, of Corvallis, the Republican candidate for governor of Oregon, ie ‘the popular nominee with the people [No such degree of general enthusiasm Hor = gubernatorial candlante, ha ‘been displayed so early in the contest for years in this state as is already lapparent wherever Dr. Withycombe’s ‘ame is mentioned in that connec ‘tion. The reception of the announce Iment of the nomination of Furnish, for instance, was a mid-winter frost ‘compared with that of the news that Dr. James Withycombe would be the Opponent of George E, Chamberlain jin the latter's breathless quest for a second term, | This is a good omen. It foretells good results. It means that we are again to have a Republican governor for the Beaver state. It means the destruction of the little Democratic ring that has been running our pres- ent governor's office during the last half of his present term. It signifies that one of the best men in the state will be its executive officer. It means that Oregon will present an unbroken official front after the ballots shall have been counted in the present contest. Dr. Withycombe is a popular man personally. He has endeared him- self to the people of the state by his eminent service in his present capac- ity in the agricultural college. He is equally popular politically, because he has at no time in his life engaged in factional quarrels with the main organization of his party. His politi cal record is as clean as his private record as a citizen—and that is with- out a stain or a blemish. Dr. Withycombe will receive an old-time Oregon majority for the governorship. Rest assured of that. MADE IN OREGON FAIR. | The “Made in Oregon” fair prom. ises to be a great success, It is a Vgood idea, and will tend to induce {people generally to patronize home jmanufactures and other industries as jfar as possible. This has not been laone as much as it ought to have been, and there is need of a popular |awakening on this subject. If every. body would support home industries, and buy only Oregon.made products, ‘the manufacturers in turn could help their neighbors in all lines of activity core; ‘coila @upiby. merg inbor, bey ‘more materials and merchandise, and circulate more money. Thus, popula- tion and trade an d commerce would grow apace, and the city, and other towns with manufacturing es- tablishments, would grow much more rapidly than they do. Portland is finely situated to be- come a great manufacturing center; indeed, if it is to become a great city it must become so; and the way to make It so isto support the manufac- tories in existence, and their pros: perity will induce others to locate here. Everybody ought to take a live ly Interest in this fair, and show their appreciation of the many good things already made in Oregon and help to hasten the day of still larger things. Patronize home industries. Buy only things made in Oregon. A “FREAK” STATEMENT. Of course if there shonid be a Re- publican majority in the legislature that body would elect a Republican senator, if it elected any one, not- withstanding Mr. Gearin might have received more votes at the polls than Mr. Bourne and conversely, if, as is extremely improbable, and almost un- ae the Democrats should have a majority of the legislature, they would not elect a Republican, al- though a Republican might have re- ceived a popular plurality. “State. ment No. 1,” construed literally, in- volves a solid vote of all who signed it for one man, the one receiving the plurality at the polls, regardless of party, but members are not thus go- ing to abandon their party in such a case, and will construe “Statement No. 1,” if they have signed it, to suit themselves. As the Oregonian says: “The statement is a ‘freak’ statement. No matter what the popular vote may be, the Oregonian—if the legislature shall have a Republican majority— will insist on the election of a Repub- ean senator. If the Democrats shall have a majority in the legislature, it will expect the election of a Demo- cratic senator, no matter what the popular vote may be. There is no call to have patience, on such a subject, with the puerilities of silly people or doctrinaires.” .HON. H. W. GOODE, PRESIDENT. The election of Hon, H. W. Goode to the presidency of the Oregon Water Power & Railway Co., on Mon- day last, was a just recognition of the jextraordinary business ability of successful man of affairs. Mr. Goode’s storing worth as a citizen, his inde- fatigable energy, his progressiveness, the modernness of his methods and his unusual suecess combine to ree- ommend him as the proper man for such an important place in the con- duct of the affairs of such an exten- sive and rapidly growing enterprise. ‘The new owners of the 0. W. P. prop- erties were not slow to recognize these qualities in Mr. Goode. An entire new set of officials was elected. They are also officers of the Portland Railway Co., which latter corporation will direct the operation of all the trolley lines of the system. This company has entire control of every mile of electric railway in the county, a total of about 185 miles. The patrons of these lines are to be congratulated on the fact that Hon. H. W. Goode is at the head of this immense concern. san HAVE YOU REGISTERED? | ‘The registration books are again open for the purpose of allowing those leo register who did not do so before the primaries, and many voters did |not. ‘The books will be open only un- til May 15, ene week from next Mon- day, and The New Age urges all its readers who are legal voters, and es- pecially colored voters, to go and reg- ister, if they arc not already regis: tered, and do it at the earliest possi- ble convenience. It is a duty to vote, jand no voter, except in case of abso- Jute necessity, should put the election board and half a dozen of his friends to trouble by swearing his vote in. If you are Republicans your yotes may be needed by one or two candidates who deserve them, and are fairly entitled to them. But whatever your polities, register, and vote. If one registered hefore the primaries, that is sufficient; he need not regis. ter again; but if one failed to regis- ter before the primaries he must reg- ister now, before May 15, in order to vote the first Monday in June.

The Republican platform, as presented by the committee appointed to prepare it, is concise, yet comprehensive, plain and patriotic. While voters generally consider the candidates rather than the platform, this particular party announcement of principles and purposes is worthy the careful perusal of every one interested in the political wellbeing of the state. About the only serious contest in the county of Multnomah is that between the opposing candidates for sheriff. But Mr. Word's Traveling Men's Protective association will probably discover that there is a good deal more to "protect" this time than there was in the former campaign. Our Democratic brethren have somewhat drifted apart on that question since last they met for the battle royal with ballots loyal. The reception accorded Hon. W. C. Hawley, of Marion county, the Republican nominee for congress in the First district, suggests the extraordinary popularity of the candidate for that honorable and onerous position. Mr. Hawley is a man of unusual ability and attractive personality. He is thoroughly familiar with the needs of Oregon. He has studied them for years, because he is profoundly interested in the welfare of the state. He is a tireless worker, a student and an orator of no mean ability. He will make an ideal representative of the people in the national congress. SHERIFF'S SALE. In pursuance of a judgment rendered in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon, for Multnomah county, on the 13th day of February, 1906, in an action wherein The Ames Mercantile Agency, a corporation, was plaintiff, and Thos. S. Kearns was defendant, in favor of the said plaintiff, and against the said defendant for the sum of $86.10, with interest thereon at the rate of 10 per cent per annum from the 13th day of February, 1906, and a further sum of $25 as attorney's fees, and the costs and disbursements of said action taxed at $15.05, and by virtue of an execution issued out of the above entitled court on said judgment on the 26th day of March, 1906. I levied on the following described real property in Multomah county, Oregon, to-wit: Eight and one-half acres out of the hereinafter described fifteen acres, to-wit: Beginning at a point twenty chains north of the quarter section corner, between Sections twenty-one and twenty-eight, in Township 1 south, range 2 east of the Willamette Meridian, thence north to the county road, and to a point 1 chain and 50 links from where a continuation of said line would strike Johnson creek; thence south 66 minutes Johnson creek; thence east to the place of beginning, save and except a strip containing five acres off the south side of said land and deeded to Abraham Frankhouser to C.

Johnson Donation Land Claim for Multomah county, Oregon; also lots 1 and 2 in block 1 in Hunter's Addition to the City of Portland, Multomah county, Oregon. And by virtue of said execution, I will offer for sale, and will sell, all of the defendant's interest in the above described property, as the law directs, at the court house door in the said county of Multomah, and the city of Portland, on the 5th day of June, 1906, at the hour of 10 o'clock of said day, to satisfy said judgment, attorney's fees, costs and court costs.

St. Petersburg, May 1.—The constitutional democrats have a clear working majority of seven, 178 members of parliament belonging to that party thus far having been elected. This, however, by no means represents the strength of the combined opposition of the government, as fifteen members have been elected by the social democrats and thirty-seven are classified as progressives. Besides, the opposition is expected to draw strength from forty-eight members who are classified as independents, and from seventeen whose political opinions are unknown. Vatican Holds the Principal. Rome, May 1.—The plan devised by the vatican for the division of the $7,000,000 paid by the United States for the friar lands in the Philippines has been approved by the Dominicans, and substantially agreed to by the other religious orders. The Vatican will retain the principal, and a portion of the interest will be given annually to the Philippine dioceses and the remainder to the religious orders in the islands, to be divided by them according to the agreement. Clash of Coal Miners. Johnstown, Pa., May 1.—A conflict occurred between union and non-union miners at the Paint Creek mine of the Berwind White Coal Company, near Ingleside, about midnight last night.

In the Good Old Days When Everything Was Done by Hand. Most everybody knows about the modern method of maple sugar making, writes E. A. Bushnell in the Cinchinati Post. The story I would tell deals with the good old days when everything was done by hand. The season begins about March 1 and lasts from four to six weeks.

Trumbull, Commercial Age When I tended camp, in the old days, a big black kettle was swung to the "hanging pole" out in the open. The sap was brought from the trees to the kettle in pails hung one on each end of the "sap yoke" resting on the neck and shoulders of a man. During a "big run" it was kept filled and boiling all day and night. In spite of smarting eyes from the wood smoke and scorching heat, the fire must be tended every few minutes and the scum, pieces of bark, dead leaves, clinders and twigs skimmed from the surface of the boiling sap. I can see the blue smoke curling from the tops of the brown leafless trees in the old camp, and smell the sweet odor of the steam from bolling sap through the open door of the sugar house. The air is frosty and invigorating. Down in the hollows on the north side of the hill, little patches of cold white snow are hlding beneath matted dead leaves, behind tree trunks and old moss-covered logs. Ice clings to the banks of the slugish brook, and I hear the trill of wood IN THE OLD SUGAR CAMP. birds, and the monotonous throbbing of a partridge's wings up where the hemlocks stand thick and gloomy. On the southern slopes the first warm breath of spring has melted the snow. It stands in clear crystal pools where the grass is green, and reflects back the sky and tall trees as you look down in it. The sweet, cold, sparkling sap from the maple trees on the hillside tinkles drop by drop into the buckets, and red-breasted robins call to their mates among the branches. A frightened woodchuck scurrles into his hole at the sound of merry song and laughter, and barking of dogs from the camp in the valley. A flock of hungry "cawing" crows "flap" lazily over a frozen and honeycomb wheat field on their way to the rookery in the old mysterious tamarack swamp. The air grows chilly as the sun goes down and dark shadows creep through the woods. The little barnlike-looking sugar house, which to the superstitious was a rendezvous for ghosts throughout the cold, bleak winter, now resounds with cheery voices, and is aglow with light and welcome. There is a "big run" on and the tenders are "boiling down" all night. And supper is ready, and such a supper! Smoked ham, eggs cooked in boiling sap, potatoes roasted in ashes, and coffee sweetened with pure maple syrup. Posthumous Honors on Suicides. When the Japanese protectorate over Korea was declared recently many Koreans grumbled and some even went the length of committing suicide in order to mark their displeasure. According to the Korea Daily News, the emperor has conferred posthumous honors upon several of these suicides. One of the misguided men, who polished himself with opium, was a minor official of the educational department, but the emperor raised him to the rank of vice minister of education, and an official of that department was dispatched by the emperor to inscribe the title upon his coffin. Another man, a private in the army, who committed suicide at the same time and for the same reasons, has also had posthumous promotion conferred upon him. Their Policy. "And so you live in Skaneatakes?" he asks of the fair young thing who is visiting his cousin. "Yes, sir," she replies, pleasantly enough. "How do you pronounce the name of that town, anyway?"

TESTIMONIAL FOR CARNEGIE ON HIS METHOD OF SPELLING Dore Andreu - I truth you very spelling many syriac, ago sense won it hews used no within. Andrew Carnegie recently has appeared as the financial backer of a commission of learned men to "reform" spelling and make it more phonetic. Many unnecessary letters should be omitted, it is the learned men's opinion, and sound should be consulted more than derivatives.—New York Herald. Wedding Customs in Turkey. The Dowry of a Turkish bride is fixed both by law and custom and must not exceed a sum equal to $1.70 in United States currency. On no pretext can this amount be made greater or less, even though the parents be extremely poor or immensely wealthy. The wedding is invariably set for Thursday, the festivities beginning on the previous Monday and lasting four days. The merrymaking is carried on by the men and women separately, and each day is distinguished by a change in ceremonies. On no account will Turks allow spouses, forks, knives or wine on the table when celebrating a wedding. No Use Expecting Her to Forget. "I know that spring is coming," she sang. "Yes, confound it," groaned her husband, "you bet you do, and there isn't any likelihood that you'll forget it, either. Oh, well, come on, I may as well know the worst right at the start. What's it going to cost this year?"—Chicago Record-Herald. "Ashes! Couldn't she think of anything less significant of Gayboy's abode in the other world?"—Pittsburgh Press.

Twice as much heat Is generated by X-rays in lead as In zine. The only jexplanation evident to the discoverer is that certain elements are broken up by these rays and that the energy lb- lerated from these atoms forms a part of that appearing when the rays are |absorbed by matter, ‘The automatic gas kindler and extin- guisher of Herr Raupp of Mayence is based upon the singular effect of light fn Increasing the electric conductivity of selenium. With the coming of day- light the selenium permits the ready passage of an electric current, and thls causes the shutting off of the gas, which the apparatus turns on again and Ig- nites as darkness comes again. The selenium, of course, Is shielded trom the light of the burning gas. The countries having a surplus of wheat of their ow. growing and the countries that must Import large sup- plies from abroad to supplement their own production make an interesting table. Under the first heading come the United States, Canada, Russia, Austria-Hungary, Roumania and Bul igaria, Turkey In Asia, North Africa, | Australasia, India and Argentina. Un- der the second heading come Great ata andirelasd, Germany, Bel gium, Holland, Italy, France, Switzer- land, Spatn, Portugal, Greece and Sean- dinavia. For a long time Russia has occupied the second place as a wheat [producing country, the United States |holding first place, Rut now Argentina |!s rapidly overtaking Russia In the race |for second place. | ‘The new railway bridge over the Yel- How river in China is one of the largest |and most remarkable in the world. It it a mile and seven-elghths in length jand 1s composed entirely of steel, with no masonry whatever, according to the report of Special Consular Agent Crist. It rests on steel tubes embedded in the river bottom, and supporting a series of arches varying from about 66 to 98 feet In length. Some of the supporting pillars consist of a group of 8 steel tubes sunk 59 fect In the river bed. The problems encountered by the en- gineers were particularly difficult be cause the river current changes not only with the season, but even day by day. Sometimes where there 1s a bed of sand one day 8 feet of water may be found the next day. The strongest currents are in August and September. During the past two or three years the French government has endeavored to stimulate the ancient Industry of lace-making by hand by providing spe- cial instruction in girls’ public and nor- mal schools, in those provinces where the manufacture of lace has been ear- ried on for generations. ‘The results are encouraging. It Is estimated that at present about 135,000 persons are en- geged in lace-making In France, only half the number employed when the industry was at its height, before the introduction of machine-made lace. Tt Is recognized that hand-made Ince pos: sesses a beauty and orlginallty of de- sign which will always give It a place In the, market, for, after all, the most cunning of machines is the human hand. Until this special effort at revival was begun, however, the Industry was rapldly becoming extinct. VALUE OF SUNLIT HOMES. Southern Exposure Gives Three Sides the Benefit of Direct Rays. Sunlight is nature's most health-giv. Ing scavenger. A house without sun- light Is unhealthy and unsafe for hu man occupancy and it Is necessary not only to have some sunlight but to have as much of It as possible. It is,of course, not feasible to admit the direct rays of the sun to every room of a house; the typleal plan of all houses is square or rectangular and at least one side of the house Is entirely beyond the reach of the sun, The other three sides, however, can recelve more or less direct sunlight and the problem of the plan Is thus reduced to arranging the various rooms so that the amount of sunlight 1s adjusted te thelr uses, and {t must be sunlight, for mere light Itself is not suffictent; the rays of the sun have curative | and cleansing properties that nothing else has. It Is generally admitted that a south. ern exposure {s the best for all houses and should be obtained whenever pos sible. It Is immaterial whether the en: trance be placed on this or not so long as the rooms most in use open onto the house. In dwellings of uvernge size the entrance front will also be the front on which any important room opens but in large country houses the old distinction of a front and a back to a house has disappeared and instead we have the entrance front and the garden front; the service and servants’ quar- ters, so long regarded as characteristic of the “back” of a house, may be rele. gated to the side end or placed in a wing that abuts directly on the en- trance front. In such cases Jt must be well screened and {ts purpose thor oughly subordinated.
