Botanical riantsJ Hld the Secret tt Lift tad DtiA. J P.ecent experiments conducted by moit ftninent scientists, prove that light is a vjre.at remedial agent ; it is essentially Nature's agent. It may be either sun liwin or electric light, but it has a de cided effect in helping nature to banish 3ssease and restore health. Other scien- :.iilc men have proved that oxygen elec trifies the heart and can prolong life. The people on this earth are susceptible . o : -on'.e laws which govrrn plant life. A pl"r.t cannot be mcctssfuliy srown in the lark. A man is seldom healthy and strong: who lives in the dark or in sunless rooms. Ai't-jr all, Nature's ways are found to be 'hi- b-st.

This will, of course, reduce the cost of smelting the ore to some extent. The smelter was built about a year ago and given a trial run. It was bum down chiefly because of a shortage of ore, but dn,u n.an .1 l.iriro amount of ore has been accumulated for a good run. "The most important mining event at Sumpter for the year has been the start ing of work on the Eureka, ec Excelsior known to the Oregon mining men as the E & K. The mine was making a big sh owitu: rive years ago out u aa icam and gutted and nothing was done till last f ill, when Jonathon Bourne, of Portland, got entire control. The mine is now working from oO to 75 men. The 20 stamp mill has been working for about a month. "It is not our intention to furnish pow er for the mines, but just for the town and the smelter. We will also furnish water. We have put about $23,000 worth of improvements in the plant at North Yakima during the past year, have installed a new reservoir at Centralia, Wash., and have put in a number of im provements at Wallace, Idaho.

One of the most - u;; palling disasters in the history of New fork, tragic in its immensity, dramatic at .ts episodes, and deeply pathetic in izc tender age ot most of its victims, tck place today in the East River, at "hvi entrance to Long Island Sound, with n 8 short distance of the New York iiore, and within sight of thousands of arsons, the majority of whom were pow rless to minimize the extent of the cr. ticlrophe. . ry the burning to the water's edge of tie Hoeum, a three-decked excursion frteamer, one of the largest in these wa .rp. more than (iOO persons, the major . .iy of whom were women and children, were burned to death or drowned by '.uti.ping overboard or by being thrown !utc the whirlpools by the lurching of did vessel and the frantic rush of the . anic-stricken passengers. Importation Prohibited. Washington, June 15, The State De- ,?artriient is advised by Consul-General "o9ier, at Ottawa, that the Canadian government has ordered that, "Expor tation, for the purpose of canniog or manufacture, of fresh salmon in trapnets :n waters of British Columbia is prohi bited." This order is the result of long-pend-. rig confeiencee of the Canadian officials nj is aimed at the Puget Sound pack ers, who have been buying British Col rrti'da fish and packing them in Wash ington canneries. The State Department ias not determined whether it is advisa ble Toi this (jlovernment to take retalia xry steps and impose a like restriction vn American or Puget Sound salmon. Senator Fulton had this matter up with ecretary Hay last winter, but the de partment would not act, inasmuch as the Canadian government had not then pro -av!';ated its restrictive orders. It may e diet legislation will be necessary to revert the selling of Puget Sound sal mon to Canadian packers. If so, a bill ior tir.s purpose will be pressed at the short session of Congress this winter. It is believed the State Department will 'ecommend sueh legislation. St. Louis, June 15. Before departing for New York at noon today, Prince Pu Lun announced himself as a self-appointed committee of one to secure China's participation in the Lewis and Clark ex position to be held in Portland, Or., in 1905. The Prince remarked to Theodore Hardee, assistant to Secretary Walter B. Stevens, that he was very much im pressed with the American idea of cele brating the anniversaries of great events with big expositions, and declared be would use every effort to secure Chinese participation at Portland. Prince Pu Lun will be accompanied as far as New York by Sir Cheng Tung Li ang Cheng, Chinese Minister at Wash ington, and the Imperial Vice Commis sioner to the World's Fair, Mr. Wong Kai Nah. From New Y'ork, the Prince will proceed to Paris, where he will re main until the middle of July, reaching China in time to participate in the fes tivities of the Emperor's birthday. Itepayiurut lor Purchaser. Salem, Or., June 15. Attorney-General Crawford rendered an opinioo today, holding that where the state has Bold land to which it has no title, the pur chaser is entitled to repayment, even though he is more than one year delin quent in his payment of deferred install ments. There is a statute which pro vides that where a purchaser becomes more than one year delinquent the cer tificates of sale shall become void, and the payments already made shall bfc for feited. The Attorney-General holds that the forfeiture does not apply to cases where the state had no title to the land sold. Miuniko Wool Kales. Smelter to Start.

The prices were some lower than the prev ious sale, June 1, ranging from to for good and choice wool. The prin cipal buyers are the Lafayette Worsted Co., Woonsocket, K. I.; Whitman, Farnsworth ot Thayer, Boston ; Alex LivingBtone, Boston ; Botany Worsted Mills, Passaic, N. J., and Ilallowell, Donald & Co., Boston. The wool was sold under the sealed bid system. The next and last sale will be July 1, and a large amount is expect ed that date. About nine million pounds will be sold here this season. ... 1 An insurrection has broken out in the province of San Luis, Bra zil, and the governor has been im prisoned. With the avowed purposejof re ducing expenses, the Erie railroad has during the past four months discharged 4500 men, but now calls a halt. The Nebraska towns are filling up with farmers who have retired from agricultural pursuits to take life at ease and educate their children, says a re cent Lincoln report. Prot-yenty has prevailed on the farms for five or six years, and the farmers of the west are showing their philosoph ical view of life by retiring before they are too old to njoy the fruits of their toil. None of them are rich in the metro politan sense of the term. They don't let-1 themselves rich. All they have is a competence, but their early life away irom the temptations of the town has taught them frugality and they have no particular uesirt to put on style. Usual ly when they come to town they go out to some modest suburb where the pric of property is low. They spend $2,000 or $3,000 for a hoiise and lot, iix things up comfortably and taijoy themselves. Their wants are easily saii-'ikd. They have not the the-ater-guing habit nor the society habit; they have learned how to get what they think is good out of life with out Indulging in many of its frivolities. Measured by their ambitions and their wants thy are as well off as any mil lionaire possibly better. They have enough and are satisfied. It it possible for a farmer to retire on a much smaller amount than mont men who have investments in other classes of property. A merchant may get out of active life but lea vt his money in his store without feeling that it is safe. Banks, too, may fail, and the price of stocks is liable to fluctuate. It is different with the farm. Nebraska land has a very stable value, and even in panicky days could be sold for fair prices. To-day it is high, but a good living is assured; and if the harvest is big and prices are good there is a large addition to the surplus and money for any little indulgences. Those farmers who prefer to stick to the farm for a little while longer are demon et rating, their possession of a bank balance by improving the appear ance of their farms. Lincoln con tractors have sent 30 or 40 carpenters out into the rural districts to build new barns and houses in the laat six weeks. Out in southwestern Nebraska, in the new wheat section, there is a land boom on, an overlap from Kansas, where speculators are forcing up prices. The short grass country wallowed in big crops this year, and there is scarcely any government land left in that section of either Kansas or Nebraska. Rtal estate agents have been running harvest excur sions into the country and syndicate buying is now a feature of the business, whole parties of emigsants from eastern states bf ing landed and settled in the &ame neighborhood on newly purchased lauds.

According to the astronomers, there was fltrce conilict of forces in chaos be fore the worlds wtre thrown off from the nebular mass; and then there were many a mad tliKht through space and frequent collisions before the force of gravity et the planet moving in their respective orbits. On a small scaie, natural forces are still at work bringing about a stable political equilibrium on this planet. Chance and war, chiefly war, have thrown together groups of people with unlike interests, states the Youth's Companion. Wherever the interests con ilict, their effort to get along together succeeds but indifferently, or falls alto gether. The most recent example of failure is the break-up of the republic of Co lombia, which occurred when the people in the department of Panama decided that they would submit no longer to neg lect by the central government, a neglect of which the rejection of the canal treaty was only the culminating Inci dent. The struggle is still going on in Austria-Hungary, where two nations, dif fering in race, are trying to live under one government. The emperor-king is able to keep hie empire together only by making frequent concessions to the Magyars. His consent. In November, to the larger use of the Hungarian lan guage in the army was forced from him at the price of breaking the deadlock which had left Hungpry without a min istry for several months. Germany has a similar problem, al though the issue there is ttie proper re lation of the various statts to the cen tral government. Davaria has resent ed the interference of the emperor In its local affairs with 60 much vigor that the inrTia! chancellor has thought It wis; to announce that the kaiser does not desire greater centralization of au thority. The HritiKh empire Is a vast nebular mass, which is to be held together until it solidifies into a homogeneous unit Mr. Chamberlain fears that it is in dan ger of flying to pieces unless the force of gravity, operating through self-interest, can be made to bind the colonies to the mother country.
