In another part of the state a young

converted an abandoned farm into an all-year-round
home of such elegance and
proportions as to suggest an English

BOOK SOCIAL AT A CHURCH
Government Acquisition, Construc
tion of Sew LockN and Rights o
Portland General Electric Are
Subject of Inquiry.
A Government board 'olj engineers ex
amined the locks at Oregon City' yester
day. The board is charged with the duty
of ascertaining whether "the acquisition
of the locks or construction of new locks
by the Government would, by withdraw
ing the waters of the Willamette from
accustomed channels. Injure manufactur
ing enterprises, and whether the Port
land General Electric Company has a
legal, valid and existing right and title
to the full, free use of the waters of the
"YVllIamc tte River."
The above quotation if" from an act
passed at the last session of Congress.
The board is directed to ascertain also
"what method would be necessary on the
part of the United States Government to
acquire title to water for navigation, and
the measure of damage it must pay to
such company."
The board is composed of Major .John
Millls. of Seattle: Captain W. C. Lang-,
fitt, of Portland, and Lieutenant R. P.
Johnson, of San Francisco. It met yes
terday morning in Captain Langfltt's of
fice. In the afternoon the members went
to Oregon City, returning about -5 P. M.
Major Mlllis and Lieutenant R. P. John
son returned last night to their respective
stations.
The question of water rights makes the
problem of Government purchase a com
plicated one. Manufacturing enterprises
receive power directly from the canal.
They use so much water that at low
stages of the stream, navigation and
manufacturing cannot go on at the same
time. 'If the Government should acquire
the locks it would do so only on condi
tion of an abundant water, supply. This
problem and the price aeked for by the
Portland General Electric Company have
been sticking points in past negotiations.
The company in 1S99 demanded $1,200,000.
and the offer to sell at that price still
holds gpod, as learned from authentic
sources.'
In 1S89 a board of Government engineers
examined the locks, "with a view to as
certaining the desirability of their con
demnation and purchase by the United
States." Thifj board was composed of
Major W. H. Heuer. Captain W. C.
Langfitt and Captain W. W. Harts. It
reported that the sum demanded by the
owners of the locks was excessive, inas
much as the Government could build new
locks on the east side of the river for
fiSC.OOO. The cost of rebuilding the pres
ent locks under the original conditions
of construction the board estimated at
$314,300.. The actual cost of the locks was
probably 5450.000. including that of right-of-way
privileges. "Later improvements
have brought the total cost up to proba
bly ?G00,O00.
Of course a great part of the value of
the locks as set by the owners is that of
water rights.
The canal is about 3300 feet long and
has four locks, each 210 .feet long and 40
feet wide, with a lift of 10 feet. Above
the locks is a canal basin about 1250 feet
long, whence a great deal of water Is
taken for factories.' A guard lock 210 feet
long is between this basin and the upper
level. This upper entrance is about 1000
feet long.
The Jocks were built in 1S70-72 by the
Willamette Falls Canal & Locks Com
pany. They were sold in 1876 to the WI1
, lamette Transportation & Locks Com
.pany (later controlled by the O. R. & N.),
: and in 1S92 to the Portland General Elec
tric Company. By the terms of a State
Legislative act of 1870, the state could In
1S73 have taken possession by paying
"their actual value," but the option was
allowed to lapse.
The examination by the board yester
day was In the nature of preliminary
work.

at that time that there was a will. Yes

Thrown Open for Inspection
of a Large Crowd.
One of the most pleasing features of the
general entertainment tendered by the
city to the delegates of the Irrigation
Convention was the drill by Battery A,
Third Regiment, Oregon National Guard,
at the Armory last evening. The drill
was of special Interest to the visitors, for
many of them had never seen (such a
spectacle before, and the maneuvers of
the thoroughly trained Guardsmen was
an extremely novel sight. It was largely
through the efforts of Colonel E. Everett,

tlon company drill In extended order.
The Guardsmen marched and counter
marched acioss the concrete floor, and
well displayed their training and the
personal Interest which each unit In the
line took in the success of the evening's
entertainment. After, another echoing
discharge, they also retired through the
wide portals on the south.
The whole battery next appeared, clad
In the neat and serviceable campaign out
fit. At the sight of the Guardsmen, the
crowd which filled the long galleries broke
into applause. The field guns were
brought out, the gatllngs loaded with
blank cartridges and the larger ones with
primings. A deafening roar went up as
they were discharged, and the feminine
visitors screamed in chorus.
After the drill a number of the visitors, 1
especially those from out of town, made
a tour of inspection through the guard
rooms and the officers' quarters on the
lower floor. Here objects of Interest were
plentiful, and the meaning and utility of
the equipments of the men, ranged In
racks on the wall, and the mysteries of
the gunroom were explained to the vis
itors by the officers and many of the
men, who courteously took their guests
through the home of the Third Regiment.
The officers who took part in the drill
were Captain H. U. Welch. First Lieu
tenant Lee M. Clark and Second Lieu
tenant F. H. Burns.
The crowd which swarmed through the
entrance was evidently impressed, with
what it had seen and heard, especially
heard, in the case of the ladies.
"Why. I feel just like a soldier,"
laughed one woman, as she stepped out
side.

The principal amusement of the evening
and one that was pursued with great mer

books which were represented by various
fantastic costumes.
Mrs. E. M. Runyan. president of tne
Ladles' Aid Society, wore an old-fashioned
brown silk gown and carried a big bag on
her arm for "Aunt Jo's Scrap Bag."

familiar household titles, exceedingly sim

JUDGE ALLOWS OLD CLAIM.
George L. Gibson to Receive i?4:iOO
From Estate of Charles O.-Snilth.
The claim of George L. Gibson against
the estate of Charles 0. Smith, deceased,
amounting with interest to $4300, was al
lowed by Judge Cleland yesterday, who
reversed his previous decision disallowing
the claim, and also a decision of the
County 'Court to the same effect.
In 1S91 Smith and his wife, Annie J.
Smith, now Annie J. Davis, executed a
note in favor of Gibson for $2500 as se
curity for money loaned. In March, 1821,
Smith died, and his estate was adminls

contended she did for the estate. In

there was 160 acres of land of the estate

"I have had a great many expe

druggist of Sams Valley, Or., "but the
recollection of one of them outshines
them all."
"What was that?" ventured a re
porter. "Well, v.-hen I was a little fellow,
about 12 or 13 years old, I began to be
afflicted with an eruption of the skin,
something like diminutive boils. I think
the cause was an hereditary Impurity of
the blood. I was treated by several of
the best physicians, but they did not
help me any. I kept growing worse, and
the eruptions became so numerous that
it was a misery to wear clothea After
a while my kidneys became affected."
"Your skin looks clear now," said the
reporter. v
"Yes, the trouble was all cured years
ago. How? By Dr. Williams Pink

what these pills had accomplished in

them. Relief came as soog as could be

have had no return of the trouble
since."

Thej- Thlte Up Abandoned Farms and
a Rural Existence.
New York Tribune.
The problem of the 'abandoned" or "run
down" farm in New Hampshire Is finding
at least a partial solution, as simple as
it is characteristic of the times. These
places are being redeemed and beautified
In considerable numbers by intelligent
single women from Boston and elsewhere,
some of whom spend only their vacations
in the country. Within a circuit of about
25 miles among the foothills of the White
Mountains one who has tha entree of
these delightful homes may visit several.
These wromen, andf.others similarly occu
pied, manv of whom are well known and
well educated, are distinctly recognized in
the farming communities where they have
"become property-holders as residents to
be counted upon when public improve
ments are to be undertaken and public
opinion Is to be formed.
One woman, for example, who has for
the present given up her professiqn on
account of her health, has bought a farm
of rather exceptional value, because it in
cludes fertile, "Intervale" land. On this
she raises large hay crops. She has put
dormer windows into the quaint old house
that she found on the place, fitted it up
with old-fashioned furniture, put settles
Deslde the big fireplace In the living-room,
hung a crane and kettle in it and placed,
odd old paintings and prints on the walls.
Here she entertains Summer boarders and
Winter house -parties.
Another woman farmer, Mrs. B.. lias
come from the West and established her
self on so high a hill that she is unusually
safe from Intrusion. She raises an abun
dance of fruit and vegetables of unex
celled quality and enough hay for her
stock. With her own hands she makes de
licious butter served on her table. One
man can do her outside work. One strong
woman docss the heaviest work of the
household, and, with no temptations to
spend her wages, she is making money.
Her mistress is not doing this, but she is
making enough to live on and Is spending
her days amid glorious mountain views,
in dust-free and ozone-iharged air, where
her relatives and friends from far and
near are only too glad to join her in Sum
mer. In Winter she has time for con
genial pursuits.
Within neighborly distance of this place
yet a third woman has bought a farm as
an investment rather than a home. She
goes up In the early Summer to do the
needed repairs and cleaning and to get' her
quaint, old stuff into Its most effective
positions. Then she leaves it for the ten-,
ant, who has seen her advertisement and
has come hundreds of miles, perhaps, to
this spot hidden among orchard and for
est trees, far from any much-traveled
road.
One enterprising woman has made her
house an absolute model of comfort and
beauty an object lesson to farmer folk
and city people alike, and both come
from miles around to see It. She is Im
proving her place in many ways. Valu
able timber is being carefully guarded;
wild fruit trees are being grafted; rare
plants, like Labrador tea, are cherished;

GRANGE DECLARES ITSELF
For Woman's Equality, Temperance
and Less Divorces.
LANSING, Mich., Nov. 21. The National
Grange today renewed Its recognition of
woman's equality by adopting the report or
Its committee on good of the order, which
declared that every possible thing should
be done "to put woman in possession of
all those political rights and property in
terests that the spirit of modern civiliza
tion demands."
The report further says that the vice of
Intemperance should be checked and the
crime of easy divorces, which has made
America too conspicuous in the eyes of
the world, made impossible.
The duty of the Grange was declared to
bo to Impress upon the farmer that he Is
an American citizen, with political duties
to perform, and that the man who neglects
them "because politics are too dirty for
him" Is Just as much a criminal as the
man who neglects to drain a cesspool that
threatens his family because it Is ill
smelling. A resolution indorsing the initiative and
referendum was defeated by the commit
tee on resolutions by a vote of S to G. The
Grange adjourned sine die.
