HAPPENINGS OF TWO CONTINENTS A Resume of the Less Important but Not Less Interesting Event of the Past Week. King Oscar, of Sweden, is seriously ill. Andrew Carnegie favors an inheritance tax. Church affairs in France are assuming a serious aspect. A blizzard has tied up railroad traffic in North Dakota. Roosevelt has yielded to congress and will drop the spelling reform. The Pittsburg chamber of commerce proposes suppression of divorce news. Poachers are slaughtering elk in the Yellowstone park preserves to secure their teeth. Roosevelt will send a sensational message to congress in a few days on the Japanese question. In the trial of the new battleship Kansas every test was successful. Her speed exceeds 18 knots. Harriman claims the car shortage is due to the car builders. He says over a year ago he ordered 16,000 freight cars, and they are just being delivered. The Interstate Commerce commission says there is not a single large railway system but what can go into its big terminal yards any day and gather 500 empty freight cars. Senator Brown is at the point of death. Democrats in the house oppose Moody's confirmation as supreme judge. Mexico had a net surplus of $20,000,000 for the year ending June 30, 1906. Three women are implicated in the Nebraska land frauds now on trial at Omaha. Representative Kahn, of California, is very bitter against Japanese immigration. France has expelled the pope's agents and is otherwise pushing the war on the church. Rockefeller has offered $100,000 toward missionary work in Egypt and the Soudan. The Spanish government is considering the question of placing an import duty on wheat. Ice blocks the "Soo" canal and there is a great fleet of vessels at each end waiting to get through. Roosevelt will drop Bristol if the senate refuses to confirm him as United States attorney for Oregon. The Russian minister of foreign affairs declares it will not be necessary to borrow money again in the near future. Commissioner Garfield says Federal license is 'the method which will control the trusts and corporations in the future and is the only solution. Religious strife is assured in France. Mayor Schmitz wants the time of his trial extended. Canada is also having trouble with Japanese coolies. The pope declares nothing will stop the struggle in France except victory for the church. John Barrett is almost certain to be chosen director of the bureau of American republics. Andrew Carnegie has given $32,000 towards rebuilding the college recently burned at Kankakee, Ill. Mrs. Storer says she is the one who brought Roosevelt to the front and he owes everything he is to her. Lands around the Salton sink, Cal., will be flooded for a year as the result of the recent break in the dam. Young Teddy Roosevelt is having hard work these days being initiated into one of Haryard's secret societies. Nearly 5,000 employees of the Washington navy yard will receive an increase in wages of 10 per cent January 1. President Roosevelt has expressed the hope that a treaty can be negotiated which will exclude Japanese coolies from the United States. There is little hope of ex-Senator Brown, of Utah, surviving the wound inflicted with a revolver in the hands of a woman he had wronged. School teachers of San Francisco have formed a union. New York bank reserves are far below the legal limit. Harriman plans to secure control of Chicago's electrical appliances. 2 Party Leaders in House Agree to Discuss the Question. Washington, Dec. 14.—The house is seemingly inclined to raise the salaries of the members as well as those of the vice president, speaker, senators and cabinet officers. Before resuming consideration of the legislative, judicial and executive appropriation bill yesterday, Littauer, of New York, endeavored to have a resolution adopted providing for taking up the question in the committee of the whole, but Underwood, of Alabama, objected to its consideration in committee. He said, however, he would make no objection to its discussion in the house after the bill was reported by the committee of the whole. He added that he was opposed to the increase, but said he would not block the way of serious consideration. His suggestion formed the basis of an agreement that, when the bill shall be reported, the question of a general advance in salaries will be taken up and voted upon as an amendment before the legislative bill is finally acted upon. The resolution increases the salaries of senators and representatives to $7,500 and makes other increases in official salaries. The resolution also fixes the salaries of the vice president and speaker at $15,000 and of cabinet officers at $12,000. SHOULD BUILD OWN WARSHIPS Admiral Capos Says Government Has Proved Ability. Washington, Dec. 14.—The ability of the government navy yard to turn out warships equal in all respects to those built under contract, in the opinion of Rear Admiral Capps, of the bureau of construction of the Navy, in his annual report, has been fully demonstrated. He urges that at least one yard on the Pacific coast and one on the Atlantic coast, when practicable, should be given a reasonable proportion of new construction work in order that such yards may always be available for any work the government may desire to undertake therein. Admiral Capps admits that it costs less to build a warship by contract by reason of the shorter hours of labor, paid holidays, vacations, etc., granted to navy yard employees, but he believes nevertheless that the government should be always prepared to turn out its own ships in times of emergency. The lack of suitable docking facilities at Norfolk and Mare Island is commented upon as being especially embarrassing to the bureau, as no battleships of any class can be docked at either of those yards. GREATEST MARINE MONSTER Plans for American Dreadnaught Provide for Fighting Wonder. Washington, Dec. 14.—Congress yesterday received from the secretary of the Navy the plans which the department has had drawn up for the big battleship provided for in the last session. Four pland were submitted by the bureau of construction and six by private firms and individuals. The plan recommended provides a ship in many respects superior to any other built or building. It was prepared by the construction bureau. According to the specifications the broadside fire will be greater than that of any other battleship, the elevation of the guns will be greater, with consequent increase of range; the defensive qualities improved over present standards and the total weight of the hull and armor will exceed by over 3,000 tons any other similar vessel. The ship is to be 510 feet long, 85 feet $2 \%$ inches beam, 27 feet draft, 20,000 tons displacement, 2,300 tons coal capacity and 21 knots speed. The design submitted by G. W. Dickie, late of the Union Iron Works, San Francisco, provided for a ship 490 feet long. Jews to be Brought West. Chicago, Dec. 14.—Realizing the congested conditions of the Jewish quarters of Chicago, New York and other large cities, leading New York Jews are planning to divert Jewish immigration to the West. Jacob Schiff, the New York banker, discussed the subject yesterday with Judge Julian W. Mack. The plan contemplates the organizing of an association financed by Mr. Schiff and other leading American Jews, which will undertake to send Jewish immigration to the South and to the extreme western part of the country. Dangerous Counterfeit Issued New York, Dec. 14. —One of the best counterfeiters that has recently come to the notice of the government authorities found its way to the sub-treasury yesterday. It is a $10 silver certificate bearing the Buffalo imprint. The back of the bill is even a closer counterfeit than the face, but both are good enough to deceive any but experts. New RAISE OFFICIAL SALARIES. RACE RIOT AVERTED San Francisco Man Starts Trouble by Strikiug Japanese. LITTLE BROWN MEN RESENT ACT Form Mob to Avenge the Insult and White Rally to Support of San Francisco, Dec. 13.—A small riot, insignificant in itself, but which may be the first of a series of events to strain the relations between Japan and America to the breaking point, occurred late yesterday afternoon in the Japanese quarter on Geary street. A young man, Ed Mell, employed in a stable at 1515 Geary street, precipitated the disturbance with a violent swing which landed on the Jaw of Tokuchika, a Japanese delivery driver. In an instant 100 angry Japanese and a score of young Americans had collected. There was a general move of the Orientals to ward Mell. "Come on, all of you," he cried. "I'll lick every d—d Jap in the crowd." The warlike tone of the young fellow aroused the crowd and the races squared away, preparatory to a general engagement. Older men kept peace until police officers could close in and arrest young Mell and dispersed the crowd. The fighting blood of Young Japan had met the fighting blood of Young America. House Committee will Draft Bill for Leasing of Land. Washington, Dec. 13. — The house committee on public lands will begin a series of hearings next Monday on the proposition to repeal the coal land law and substitute a law along the lines suggested by the president in his message. The committee is agreed that the present law must be changed, but it is not satisfied as to the best form of substitute. Representatives of the Geological survey and the Interior department will be heard, together with any one else interested, and it is probable that the Interstate Commerce commission will also make suggestions based upon the investigations recently made in Utah, Wyoming and Colorado. The expectation is that some bill will be framed directing that title to coal land shall rest in the government, and that coal be developed under the leasing or royalty system. There was some criticism today of the extensive withdrawals of coal lands, it being contended that there is no law giving the president authority to withdraw this land from entry. The majority of the committee, however, defended the action of the president on the ground that he had made the withdrawals in order to prevent monopoly of coal land in the West, and was acting entirely in the public interest. Strong efforts will be made to secure the enactment or coal land legislation this session. GEARIN PROPOSES REMEDY. New Treaty With Japan Excluding Coolies from America. Washington, Dec. 13.—Senator Gearin in yesterday introduced and will later speak on a resolution that it be the opinion of the senate that our treaty with Japan be so modified as to prohibit the coming to this country of Japanese coolie labor. He will say that it is the only solution of existing trouble, and inasmuch as the Japanese government does not want her people to emigrate, he believes Japan will agree to such modification of the treaty at this time as will avoid a repetition of the trouble experienced by the Pacific coast with the Chinese prior to the passage of the exclusion act. He will talk with senators from the Pacific coast before making his speech, and will unquestionably have their united support. Preamble is Adopted Guthrie, Okla., Dec. 13. — The constitutional convention here today passed the following preamble to the constitution being drafted for the new state of Oklahoma: "Invoking the guidance of Almighty God in order to secure and perpetuate the blessing of liberty, to secure a just and rightful government, to promote mutual welfare and happiness, we, the people of Oklahoma, do ordain and establish this constitution." It probably will be 40 days yet before the entire constitution has been drafted and adopted. Petition for Postal Savings Banks. Washington, Dec. 13. — A petition for the establishment of postal savings banks, bearing the names of nearly 60,000 persons residing in 18 states, was presented to congress today by Representative Boutell, of Illinois. Age KILL COAL OCTOPUS. THE REASON WHY Bourne Should Not Be Elected U. S. Senator The New Age has said before and it now says again that it does not believe that the next legislature will elect J. Bourne, Jr., to the United States senate. It has been said that our opposition to Mr. Bourne is inspired by prejudice, and that we can give no good reason for opposing him since he was regularly named by the republican voters for the office. We opposed Mr. Bourne during the primaries for the reason that we knew him to be unfit for the high office to which he aspired. First—That he is not a loyal and consistent republican. Second—That he is a traitor and political black-leg. Third—That he could not be depended upon to support Roosevelt. If he had been a loyal and consistent republican he would not have deserted his party in the hour of its dire distress, when the blight of Bryanism and populism overshadowed the country in 1906. But as a true and loyal republican would have put self aside and rendered whatever service he could for his party and his republican friends. If Bourne's will had prevailed and Bryan had been elected who can say that there would have been today a strong, invincible republican party in Oregon to honor him for his perfidy. The legislative session of 1895 was the most spectacular in the history of Oregon and the King Pin of that session was J. Bourne Jr., whose malodorous record is even yet a stench in the nostrils of decent people. With a goodly supply of money and other corrupting influences the trick of thwarting the will of the people and debauching the honor of the citizenry was the special mission of this political montebank, who, now, ten short years afterward, has the brazen affrontery to seek this high and honorable position at the hands of the party, whose murder he conspired to bring about. In the light of the past record of Mr. Bourne, who is so unsuspecting as to trust him in the future? Does anyone who knows him, save his hired henchmen, think for a minute that he can be depended upon to stand up for republican principles and policies in the United States senate, and to uphold the hands of life-long, true and tried republican leaders in that body, and to "stand pat" with the party's matchless leader, mose profound stateman, patriot and humanitarian since the days of Lincoln—Theodore Roosevelt. NO. 34. It doesn't take the average man long to get short. Don't expect a soft answer when you call a man hard names. Isn't it getting to be a good while between doumas in Russia? Will the ambitious mothers of America parade Count Boni as a "horrible example?" A man is very apt to find himself in other people's way when he insists upon having his own. Japan is conquering Manchuria commercially, which is a more substantial and lasting way than shooting holes through it. When Opportunitil knocks at your door and doesn't receive any answer she doesn't often leave a card with her address on it. Count Boni de Castellane may now be listed with those people who have come to the conclusion that it is foolish to keep letters. After this the American girl who marries a title must understand right at the start that it will be useless for her to expect any sympathy. Every time a man and a woman engage in an argument the man gets a chance to say unprintable things and the woman to turn on the briny flow. William Allen White, who originated the question, "What's the matter with Kansas?" has taken in more territory. He now asks "What's the matter with the United States." It costs Consuelo Vanderbilt $100,000 a year to get rid of her ducal husband. Some women would have dickered him down to $99,998, and bought thread with the difference. The husband who refuses to carry the baby, cut kindling or build fires is no longer entitled to his wife. This is now a court decision. It may be inserted in the next new divorce law. The editor of Harper's Weekly says the American girl between the ages of 18 and 25 is a bore. But he has probably been unfortunate in associating with one who was wearing her first engagement ring. It cost J. Pierpont Morgan $10,000 duty to bring the manuscripts of two poems by "Bobble" Burns to this country. How "Bobble" would have been tickled if anybody had ever seen fit to prove to him that there was as much as $10,000 in the world. Off the banks of Nova Scotia they have for some time been catching fish ordinarily to be found only in tropical waters, and this strengthens the supposition that the gulf stream may be changing its course somewhat. The Canadian Fish Commissor, Prof. Prince, reports meeting with several varieties of fish lately which are strange to that latitude. Recently at Brockton, Mass., a 6-year-old child blew a man's head off with a shotgun; at Bangor, Me., a small boy killed his infant sister with a load of shot, and similar occurrences have been reported from other places. Ninety-nine per cent of gun accidents might have been avoided by the exercise of a small symptom of common sense. The children referred to in the dispatches found the guns in their home and the guns were loaded. To keep a loaded gun in the house is next to criminal carelessness. To keep a loaded gun in the house where there are children is idiotic. High finance is not without its humorous phases and one of them is presented in the virtuously reprehensive attitude of the New York Exchange magnates toward gambling in mining and other "curb" securities. Such gambling is highly sinful, they say, because "the money thus employed comes almost entirely from a class of people who would otherwise be likely to use it in listed stocks!" "Don't blow your money against the crap game in the alley," shout the stock exchange magnates; "come and buck our highly respectable faro bank." Is there no sense of the ludicrous on the stock exchange? The business of The Hague conference is at once complicated and promoted by the number of questions which other conferences and conventions are submitting to it. At the recent conference in Berlin of the International Law Association, the proceedings of which will be submitted to The Hague, it was urged that floating and automatic mines be forbidden except in the waters of belligerents. They would not be allowed in passages like the British channel, which must be used as a thoroughfare by all nations. It was also the sense of the conference that letters conveyed by regular mail steamships should be free from molestation, that ships commissioned for warlike purposes should not be allowed to hoist a mercantile flag or change their character at sea, and that vessels captured while carrying contra band of war should be conveyed to port for legal investigation. Shortly before this the Fifteenth Universal Peace Congress, at Milan; passed a resolution that ocean trade routes should be neutral. This resolution embodied a still earlier one adopted by the Lake Mohonk Conference of International Arbitration in June. The picture post card has proved to be not only a joy to the millions, but an important source of profit to the Post Office Department. These cards are easy to handle and do not increase the expenses of post office administration in proportion to the revenue they bring in. Because of their financial value, which has seemed worth stimulating, the post cards have succeeded in securing a bit of favoritism from the government which no other mail matter has obtained. Before long it will be permissible to write messages on the address side of the cards as well as on the picture side. Probably hundreds of thousands of persons in America alone, and certainly millions if all the world is included, are picture post card collectors. A post card without a message from the sender is but half of a pleasure, but a message across the picture, or even beneath it, or at one side, is regarded by the collector as the right thing in the wrong place. When the new arrangement takes effect the sender may use the left half of the front of the card for his written message, and all of the blessings will be neatly delivered to the receiver without any of the evils. The United States is not the country that makes the innovation. Most of the European countries have already tried it, and even have private arrangements for the transmission of such cards across national boundary lines. By the last universal postal congress it was agreed that after Oct. 1, 1907, such cards should pass freely between all nations which are parties to the convention. Postmaster General Cortelyou has now issued an order providing for this, and also providing that after March 1 next such cards shall be admitted to the domestic mails. This is good news for the collectors, and presumably experience has sufficiently demonstrated that messages confined to one-half of the card will still leave free space enough on the other half to enable the mail men to make out the addresses without undue confusion. WORK AMONG MOSLEMS. Question Discussed at an American Board Meeting. Following closely upon the acceptance of Mr. Lehlman as ambassador at Constantinople comes the announcement of the new attitude of the American board toward mission work among the Moslems in Turkey, says the New York Tribune. Hitherto it has been feared that Moslem fanaticism might result in violence against the missionaries at the front if it were plainly stated that this board is endeavoring through its missionaries to make Jesus Christ known to the followers of Mohammed. For nearly four score and ten years the board has maintained a silence that has been misinterpreted both in the east and in the west. Widely has the uncontricted but erroneous statement been circulated that "mission boards are not working for the Christianization of Moslems," and that "no Moslems become Christian." There is even a wide difference of opinion among the missionaries and the friends of the board as to the wisdom of discussing this question here. Some fear it may result in open tactical violence against missionaries in Turkey and elsewhere, while others believe that the time has come when the board should speak boldly and frankly. Last April witnessed a long step in advance in the conference in Calro, Egypt, where some seventy delegates assembled from all over the world to discuss this question. Since the conference was in a Moslem country, secrecy was maintained at that time to prevent the breaking up of the gathering. Two volumes are soon to be issued, giving to the world a full report of proceedings of the first world conference of Christians upon the subject of Mohammedanism and its relation to Christianity. Printing Press in Tibet When approaching Tibet from the valley on the west a correspondent paid a visit to a monastery, there far famed for its printing press, says the Times of India. In winter the press does no work, probably because the ink cannot be kept from freezing, and we are disappointed in our hopes of witnessing the manner in which sacred literature is manufactured in Tibet. All around a big hall are arranged in shelves the printing blocks, which are simply rectangular pieces of wood upon which a whole page of lettering has been carved. When in action a block is held in a vise and then leveled by hand upon the paper, where it leaves a facsimile of the carving on its face. The process is simple and expeditious, and several fat volumes can be printed in a day. But the blocks, of which there are very many thousands, represent long and patient labor, their workmanship and finish being very fine. Of the usual adjuncts of a printing press there are none at Nartank monastery except that unwashed condition of some of the monks and all of the attendants entitles them to rank with printers' devils. It is bad enough for a popular man to attempt to get votes but it is the limit when an unpopular man tries to. Our idea of the right kind of a letter is one in which there is nothing to answer.

China Selects One to Represent Mt at ‘The Hague Tribunal. ‘The Chinese Government has appoint: ed John W. Foster, formerly Secretary of State, as its delegate to the next In- ternational confer- ence at The Hague. The Chinese Gov- ernment 1s deeply Interested in the proceedings of the next conference be- cause it will consid- er many Important questions suggested by the war between Russia and Japan, Ss Sa WAS TOURRS Cotnese territory. It 1s expected that the tribunal, representing all the civ- Sized nations of the world, will adopt some kind of a code to govern similar situations In the future, to define the rights and limit the authority of bellig- erents who occupy neutral ground. It ‘will doubtless determine also to what extent such belligerents can use neu- trals within their Ines, and to what extent neutrals can assist the belliger- ents. A new definition of neutrality 1s ‘very much needed, and there 1s an: {m- perative necessity for an international law protecting the non-contraband prop- erty of neutrals during war. ‘Mr. Foster has been counsel of the Chinese legation in Washington for twenty years, except during several in- tervals when he was Secretary of State under the Harrison administration or has been engaged in diplomatic nego- tlations in behalf of his own govern- ment. He was the adviser of the Chi hese commissioners in their negotla- tions for peace after the war with Japan In 1895, and his services were 80 satistactory to both éldes that he was afterward entertained and honored at Toklo by the Japanese quite as much as by the Chinese at Pekin, Shortly after, and several times since, the Chinese Government has invited him to go to Pekin as Its offical adviser and has of- fered him a most tempting salary as his remuneration. It is the conviction of the diplomatic colony in China that if Mr. Foster had accepted the invitation. of the Emperor in 1896 the Boxer trou- bles would have been prevented and the war between Russia and Japan would never have occurred. That war was the direct result of the intervention of Rus- sia in the affairs and relations of China ‘and Japan. This would never have hap- pened, nor would the Boxer outbreak have occurred, if there had been a strong and wise man at the head of the foreign department at Pekin, oPRE SAPLY Barron gy Dropey.—Take one ounce of burnt copperas, one ounce of aloes, halt ar ounce of cream of tartar, beat fine mix and place in two grain capsules Begin with one capsule and Increase fone each morning until the ninth day, then rest nine days and begin with one fs at first, go through nine more and rest nine again; repeat the third nine days and the patient should be well Live on crackers and molasses and sweet milk, half water.

Bennett of The Dalles Optimist, a true, courageous republican, who says what he thinks and means what he says, hands Mr. Bourne a few again last week, as follows: If a man cannot be safely trusted he ought not to be placed in a position of trust. --- Self preservation is the first law of nature; and party preservation is the first law of the party. Nearly 2,000 years ago the man who spake as never man spake, said: (Matt., 7-16-20) "Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." And six hundred years before the utterance of the above truths, the Prophet Jeremiah (chapter 13 verse 23) said: "Can the Ethiopian change his skin, or the leopard his spots? Then may ye also do good, that are accustomed to do evil." And a great American poet has summed up all this wisdom of the Bible, and the facts and experience of men in all ages, in two lines: "Shape our actions as we may Our future lies behind us." And just what Jonathan Bourne has been in the past he will be in the future. Not a single one of the papers demanding his election at the hands of the legislature pretends to give any fact in the life of Bourne which justifies his election to the United States senate. They do not pretend to give any record of good deeds, any record of useful work, or any record of good character. But on the contrary they are all compelled to admit his unfitness for the high office. And we now put it to these papers seriously and solemnly; are all the great interests of the new and growing state of Oregon, and all the interests of the Republican party to be wrecked, and the state and party to be dishonored and disgraced in the election of a party traitor and unfit man to the senate, because forsooth we are all bound by the fiction of the primary law which attempts to repeal the constitution of the United States? The Bourne papers call on us to beware how we tamper with the primary law; and in reply we call on them to beware how they disgrace the party and the state by electing party traitors and unfit men over the heads of able, honest, faithful republicans, whose lives and characters are a guarantee that they will ably serve the state and the party and reflect honor on the party and the state which they represent. PEOPLE, NOT CATTLE. The man who urges and argues that this is and of right ought to be completely a "white man's government" thinks that Lincoln did not include negroes when he spoke of a "government of the people, by the people for the people." It is curious that some people who want the prestige of Lincoln's name will twist his declarations into absurdities. One of the "white man's government" advocates says this government was not created by the red man nor black men, but white men. Yes, answers a writer in the Indianapolis Star. The South Carolina Tories who fought against this government were not red men, nor black men, but white men. When they led off in secession it was the same. When Lincoln freed the negroes and allowed them to fight against the rebels, did he think they were asses, mules and cattle? Or did he think they were --- Transacts a General Banking Business.

Why is South Carolina the volcano that spews up everything that is retrogressive? Not another state in the world would have sent a Tillman to the senate. True, the Indian has never been a political factor, but he has been a most serious factor that had to be dealt with. He will be a political factor from now on. PARTY HONOR. There are about 250 daily and weekly newspapers published in the state of Oregon, says the Dalles Optimist. Of these about a score have spoken in favor of the election of Jonathan Bourne to the senate by the coming legislature. Among the Bourne papers are the Oregonian, Echo Register, Hood River News-Letter, Portland Journal, Arlington Record, Dallas Observer, the E. O., Eugene Guard and Salem Statesman. Those which have spoken out boldly and given reasons why Bourne should be defeated are the Optimist, Portland New Age, Woodburn Independent, St. Johns Review, Polk County Itemizer and Amity Enterprise; and about 225 other daily and weekly papers scattered all over the state so far have expressed no opinion and are presumably entirely willing to see Jonahtan elected to stay at home, if he has any legal residence. Of the papers demanding the election of Bourne the Portland Journal and East Oregonian are democratic, and nothing would please them so well as to see the Republicans take Jonathan Bourne, the party traitor and Bryan supporter, as their standard bearer. A POSSIBLE MAYOR. There is a good deal of talk among his "legion" of friends of trying to induce Hon. L. Zimmerman, formerly president of the council to enter the race at the proper time for the nomination for mayor, and if he should decide to do so it is believed he could secure the nomination and could not be beaten in the election by Mayor Lane or any other democrat. Mr. Zimmerman is an old resident of Portland, though a comparatively young man, and has always taken an active and earnest part in its upbuilding and welfare. He is thoroughly conversant with the city's situation and needs in every respect, and possesses ample ability to serve it in this onerous capacity. As councilman Mr. Zimmerman made an excellent record, and as a business man and citizen no one could truly bring any kind of reproach against him. The republicans of Portland will soon be looking around for a man to run for mayor and if he has any desire for the office it is not likely that Mr. Zimmerman will be over looked. Sale of Mexican Mine. El Paso, Tex., Dec. 11. — News was received today of the consummation of the sale of the two most famous gold and silver mining properties in the state of Sonora. Las Chishas, a famous producer, has been sold to a New York and Paris syndicate for 6,000,000 pesos ($3,000,000 gold). The Badicanora mines, in the same district, one of the most famous of the Antigua group, has been sold to D. F. O. Pease, of Chicago, and his associates. Sampans Sunk in Squall. Tokio, Dec. 11.—A number of sampans (small harbor boats) belonging to the Japanese cruiser Chitose were sunk in a squall here today while she was returning from a trip. A number of the boats were overturned and 60 men were drowned. THE NEW AGE, PORTLAND, OREGON NEW PLAN TO BUY SUPPLIES. Keep Commission Proposes to Put It on Business Basis. Washington, Dec. 12.—The committee on department methods, popularly known as the Keep commission, has submitted to the president its report on the standardization and method of purchase of department supplies. The report reviews at some length the present unbusinesslike and needlessly expensive method of purchasing supplies, by which each of the several departments in Washington has its own standards of quality and makes its own purchases entirely independent of others. Briefly, the report is as follows: Provision is made by which the preparation of the schedules, advertising for proposals and making the contracts for the purchase of department supplies are placed in the hands of a board to be known as the general supply committee, such board to be under the supervision and control of the secretary of commerce and labor. The head of each department or independent bureau to serve as a member. The board thus constituted is hereafter to purchase the department supplies heretofore acted upon by the board of award. The committee, however, makes exceptions in the case of the military and scientific departments of the government. TWO EMPIRES STARVING Claims of Chinese and Russian Famine Sufferers Conflict. Washington, Dec. 12.—For the present at least no governmental appeal will be made to the people of the United states for aid for the famine sufferers of China. This decision was reached after the State department had communicated with Louis Klopsch, of the Christian Herald, who raised $200,000 for the Japanese sufferers, and who regards the Russian famine as infinitely worse, 30,000,000 people or twice the number suffering in China being affected. According to letters received by Mr. Klopsch, 40,000 square miles in China, supporting a population of 15,000,000, have been flooded and so great is the destination that many parents are drowning their children rather than see them starve, and are themselves committing suicide. Japanese Veterans Coming Japanese Veterans Coming. Honolulu, Dec. 12.—Many Japanese laborers wearing war medals arrived here today, on the steamer Nippon Maru, from Yokohoma. Labor Commissioner Sargent, who came here from Washington recently, in connection with labor matters, said today that the plantations should pay better wages, and that he disapproved of Filipino immigration. General Harrison Otis, of Los Angeles, was a passenger on the Nippon Maru. He expressed himself as being opposed to Japanese naturalization and immigration. Companies are Badly Managed. Company's are Badly Managed. Milwaukee, Wis., Dec. 12. — Senator Rummell, the Socialist member of the state senate investigating committee which has been probing life insurance conditions in Wisconsin, has written a minority report, in which he declares that extravagant salaries are paid, relatives are employed, premiums are too high, policy holders are discriminated against, and private management of the insurance business compares unfavorably with national control of the same line of business in foreign countries. King of Cigarette Fiends Chicago, Dec. 12.—Julius Persky, of Hammond, Ind., died last night from excessive smoking of cigarettes. He said that he had smoked 500,000 cigarettes during his lifetime. His only sustenance for three months had been diluted alcohol and cigarettes. THE ILLINOIS CENTRAL maintains unexcelled service from the west to the east and south.

The re- spects of those present were paid also to W. L. Brady and he was denounced in strong terms for the stand he took in writing an article upholding the President in his action and claiming that the sentiments he expressed were shared by the better element amongst the colored people. On Dec, 2, in Philadelphia, Pa., Flora Batson, perhaps better known by her stage name of Black Patti, was seized with convulsions at her residence and died after an illness of only two hours. Although only 35 years of age, she had achieved great renown as a singer, not alone in this country but in Europe as well, having appeared before the rulers of most all of the European countries as well as before Pope Leo. She was a native of Aus- tralia, but came to America when quite young. Her musical talents at- tracted attention when she was nine years old as she sang in the church choir in Providence, R. I., and she was given the benefit of services of some of the most noted teachers of this country, who prepared her for the stage.” ‘On Thanksgiving last she ap- peared in a concert given in one of the churches of Philadelphia. Many of our citizens are personally acquainted wi. Mrs, Batson and feel that the race has suffered a great loss. As the population increases condi- tions change and new problems are presented to us that demand our atten- tion. One or two instances have come to our attention causing us to think that the time is ripe for the formation | of a Ladies’ Aid Society or some kin- dred organization to take charge of cases of destitution that may occur in our midst. It has long been our boast that a negro begger was an un- known quantity in this portion of the globe and while it may yet be true with the increasing population it is to be expceted that from time to time cases will arise that we, as a people, would rather be in a position to relieve | than to call upon cither public charity or the organized charities of the other | race. Let it be sald of us as is said of the Jew, that we take care of our own paupers and unfortunates. Whilst we have churches and secret organ- izations they’ cach have their own work to do and the limitations set upon that work by the nature of their or- ganization leaves a field for another organization In our mind. The New Age would suggest that some of our noble-hearted women make a move in that direction. We promise them that they can rely upon us for all the as- sistance in our power and feel that the colored citizens as a whole will Ce ee | | ROYAL ARCH MASONS.

Governor Wentworth, hoping to gain his support, appointed Bartlett a magistrate and in 1770 placed him in command of a mill-tia regiment. He continued a zealous Whig. however, in trance into the Legislature of New Hampshire in 1765, to which he had been elected a delegate. Governor Wentworth, hoping to gain his support, appointed Bartlett a magistrate and in 1770 placed him in command of a militia regiment. He continued a zealous Whig, however, in spite of all the attempts to swerve his allegiance. In February, 1775, Bartlett was deprived of both the offices that he had held under the Tory government. In the same year Bartlett was made a member of the committee of safety, and in September accepted a commission as colonel of an American regiment. Dr. Bartlett was chosen to represent New Hampshire in the Continental Congress. He was the first man to give his vote for the Declaration of Independence and the second man to sign it. During the progress of the Revolution Bartlett divided his time between the council and the front, giving services equally valuable in both. At the close of the Revolution he was chosen chief justice of the Court of Common Pleas and later chief justice. In 1793 he was chosen the first Governor of the State of New Hampshire, an honor bestowed by grateful people. IN THE LANDS OF SNOW. Keeping Warm Is the Main Business of the People. With the big, restless, energetic world outside of this tropical belt, however, the matter of keeping warm is ever present, troublesome and expensive, throughout half of each passing year, says the National Magazine. As a matter of fact, the world of humanity dwelling in stuyeland never has been, in all the ages, really and comfortably warm in winter. It is largely our own fault. Mankind is the only animal which employs fire in the effort to survive the cold of the winters. The hardy lower animals do not need it, however much their luxuriously enervated representatives, the dog and the cat, may enjoy it, when they have a chance. Ancient man only got himself rid of his provident coat of hair and his sufficient latent heat when he began to loaf around the family cooking stove and absorb the intoxicating comfort of artificial warmth. This far-away ancestor is responsible for the fact that the present-day human being, outside of the belt aforesaid, is obliged to keep close to a thermometer registering nearly or quite 70 degrees Fahrenheit from October to May, besides which he must needs wear extra clothing. This, also, is an inherited habit. A traveler west once asked a half-naked Indian in midwinter how he managed to stand the weather. The Indian replied: "Your face no got a coat. If no cold. Indian face all over." Off the Beaten Track The old captain whose seafaring days were over looked from the easel to the artist and back to the easel again with a tolerant smile. "Hanging round the wharf as I do, I see a good many o' your kind," he said, in a friendly tone. "Going to paint the sea, I take it. Well, I'm glad to see you getting down to it." "Don't the others sit down?" asked the artist. "Most of 'em do," said the captain. "but there was one woman kep' walkin' round, holdin' up a pencil an squintin' her eyes. Finally she get where the view seemed to please her, but she kep' steppin' back'ard an' steppin' back'ard, till at last she stepped off. "No great harm done," added the captain, stooping to look more closely at the picture on the easel. "We fished her out, an' I guess after that she was content to paint common." First Sign of Consumption. A rise of temperature from one-half to one degree at some period of greater or less duration every twenty-four hours may be regarded as the first symptom of pulmonary tuberculosis, occurring previous to every other symptom and before the general health of the individual is influenced to a noticeable degree. The temperature will be most elevated following bodily fatigue. Excluding other morbid conditions that would cause a similar elevation of temperature, it is safe to diagnose the case as one of pulmonary (or laryngeal) tuberculosis when this temperature has persisted for a period of two weeks and is associated with loss of weight and vitality, even though there has been no accompanying cough or expectoration and though physical examination gives negative results.

Up-to-date stores nowadays consider window lighting a necessity, whether they remain open after dark or not. Competition forces modern methods. Is your store "SHUT UP" after sunset in the old style or in the new? There is no known illuminant which will light a shop window as effectively, hand-omely and satisfactorily as Electric Light. Fabrics are shown in their true colors and every little detail is brought out in true proportion to its surround n.

Being proposed to in a balloon, is the Intest adventure of a woman astronomer, writes Dewey Shelden Beebe in Technical World Magazine. And the women astronomers of to-day have discovered more new stars than the men of science have been able to find in several centuries. But women in astronomical work are not the product of new world conditions alone, for they have been identified with every important advance in that science. From the time when the young and beautiful Hypatia of Alexandria gave her life a martyr to science, a tragedy of the fifth century, to the daring capture of Dorothea Klumpke while making a balloon voyage under the auspices of the Paris Observatory, a romance of the twentieth century, the story of women and astronomy is a record of achievement charged with sacrifice and devotion. Woman's natural carefulness, system, caution, accuracy, and love of detail, have made her indispensable in completing our knowledge of the constitution and distribution of the stars. She has achieved greater success, has met with more courteous recognition, and now occupies a more prominent place in astronomy than in any other branch of scientific activity. She has added greatly to our knowledge of the stars, not only through her untiring efforts and discoveries, but by the inspiration of her example and the stimulus of her devotion.

Made by Greeks of Greek Tobacco They Are Called Egyptian They Are Called Egyptian. A controversy which has been going on in Europe, and especially in England, as to the rival merits of Turkish and Egyptian cigarettes seems likely to be settled by a report of a disinterested but observant American consul. Though the United States is the great cigarette-producing nation of the world, there are importel into this country every year more than $3,000,000 worth of foreign-made cigarettes, some Turkish and some Egyptian. Turkey is a large tobacco-producing country, yielding 50,000 tons of tobacco every year, and the Turks, it is well known, are a nation of smokers. The amount of tobacco raised in Egypt is inconsiderable, and yet Egyptian cigarettes are imported into this country in considerable amounts every year. The explanation of the gatter, as offered by the American consul in Athens, is simple. It seems that the Greek tobacco crop last year was the largest Greece ever harvested—about 200,000,000 pounds. A brand of Greek tobacco is used for Egyptian cigarettes. Why, it is asked, Egyptian? The answer is that Egyptian cigarettes are made by Greeks because cigarette paper is too expensive in Greece, where it is a government monopoly. Thus the business has gone over to Egypt. The most famous cigarette makers of Egypt are Greeks. A very large business in cigarette making has been established in Alexandria, and it is in the hands of Greeks, who import their tobacco from their own country and in turn ship it to foreign countries, England and the United States being the chief market for Egyptian cigarettes, which are, in fact, Greek cigarettes, those bearing the title Turkish being imported from Turkey direct.

Alleged Origin of Spotted Fever of the Rockies. Several surgeons of the marine hospital service claim to have practically demonstrated as a fact that the terrible spotted fever of the Rocky Mountains is caused by the infections of ticks, says the Washington Star. The discovery, if further experiments show it to be positive, is a most important one, and the marine hospital service is awaiting results with deep interest. The spotted fever is especially virulent in the Montana mountains, although it is well known in many other sections. The victims become fearfully and wonderfully spotted during the course of the disease, which is fatal in a large number of instances. OLD SOIL BY IMPURITY Whenever a sore refuses to be healthy, as it should be, but is a blood taint which has corrupted usually afflicted with old sores a die life. The vitality of the blood begins to decline, and the poison of a sluggish and inactive condition has hitherto been held in its legs or other part of the body, eats into the surrounding tissue ulcer, fed and kept open by the i. Nothing is more trying and disa. The very fact that it resists ordi. for suspicion; the same germ-pr. old sore, and especially is this There has been a widespread belief for years that the fever was caused by the piroplasma carried by ticks, as the fever always appeared during the tick season. Physicians have disputed this view, however. In April last Surgeon General Wyman of the marine hospital service detailed Dr. King and Dr. Rickett's to conduct a most careful examination. They have reported that their experiments indicate that the tick is at the bottom of the disease. In their report they state that the fatality from the disease was too great to justify experiments with human subjects and they were compelled to resort to animals. They found that guinea pigs and monkeys were susceptible to the disease to direct inoculation with the blood of fever patients. The typically fatal disease was frequently produced in animals in this way. To test the tick infection theory Dr. W. W. King procured four ticks—one male and three females—and sent them to Washington. The male tick dled in transit. The three ticks that were left alive were placed upon a guinea pig suffering with spotted fever. They remained until the animal died, two days and a half later. The ticks showed some enlargement. Nine days after removal from the guinea pig the ticks were placed upon a healthy guinea pig. One was killed by the pig, but the others remained until they dropped off in five days. Three days after this the guinea pig began to show symptoms of fever, all being of the nature of a spotted fever patient. The pig died. The pig was kept in a separate cage from other pigs. Another pig was inoculated from the heart's blood of the tick-infected pig and sickened and died. As Mr. Hill put on his coat preparatory to going out for the evening his wife called him back to the sitting-room. "Thomas," she said, doubtfully, "I wonder if I could trust you to find out a little about that hall paper of the Saffords. It's such a pretty one, and if we could afford it, I'd like to get that same pattern in green, where theirs is blue, you know. I meant to ask Mrs. Safford to night in a round-about way, if this cold hadn't kept me at home. Could you lead up to it easily with Mr. Safford and not offend him—or her?" "Yes, indeed," said her husband, cheerfully, "you can trust me, my dear. I know how to introduce a subject easily, I hope." On his return he drew a silk of paper from his pocket and handed it to his wife. "There's the place, price, shop and clerk's name," he said, proudly. "I got 'em all from Safford inside of five minutes." "How did you introduce the subject?" asked his wife. "Why, just like this," said Mr. Hill. "As I was taking off my coat in the hall I cast my eyes up toward the ceiling, and I said, 'Pretty tint that is, Safford; just matches your paper; and a mighty pretty paper, too. My wife was saying to-night that if we only knew where you got it and how much it cost, we might find we could afford one just like it in blue; not in green, you understand; she doesn't care for the color of yours.' I said; 'it's just the pattern we admire.'" "I had it all down in black and white in no time. And as I came away I assured him that with the difference in color nobody'd ever know it was the same pattern. "Now didn't I do well?" Women beat around the bush so I wonder they ever find out anything."—Youth's Companion. A.

OLD SORES FED AND KEPT OPEN Whenever a sore refuses to heal it is because the blood is not pure and healthy, as it should be, but is infected with poisonous germs or some old blood taint which has corrupted and polluted the circulation. Those most usually afflicted with old sores are persons who have reached or passed middle life. The vitality of the blood and strength of the system have naturally begun to decline, and the poisonous germs which have accumulated because of a sluggish and inactive condition of the system, or some hereditary taint which has hitherto been held in check, now force an outlet on the face, arms, legs or other part of the body. The place grows red and angry, festers and eats into the surrounding tissue until it becomes a chronic and stubborn ulcer, fed and kept open by the impurities with which the blood is saturated. Nothing is more trying and disagreeable than a stubborn, non-healing sore. The very fact that it resists ordinary remedies and treatments is good reason for suspicion; the same germ-producing cancerous ulcers is back of every old sore, and especially is this true if the trouble is an inherited one. Washes, salves, nor indeed anything else, applied directly to the sore can. Then the sore begins to heal, new flesh is formed, all pain and inflammation leaves, the place scabs over, and when S. S.
