ing for rortiana, wnor ne entered the
Portland Sanitarium tor treatment. Mr.

tration, ud Mi condition wee quite
lurming. It if hoped by hit friendi
that the change ana treatment no will

IlaMia Cuntlnae tiow.
With the tlie exception of the Bhaver
Transportation Oompanjr cutting the
far from Ulalikanle to Portland to 60
oenU, there haa been no new develop
ment In the rate war alnoe our last
iaan. The (are from Portland to As
tori by boat and train remain at 26
cent, but lno the Exposition hai
eloaed and traillo relapsed to the normal,
an adjustment ol differences may toon
be aapeoted.
Itooalled to Astoria.
Captain Henderson, ol Iloulton, was
called back to Astoria laat Monday by
the owner of the Jessie, presumably
to again take charge of the vessel.
After a ten-day' cruise under another
manager, the boat returned to port last
week without a pound of fish, and It I
mora than likely the case that nnlua
Captain Henderson again take the mat
ter in hand, the project of deep sea fish
will be abandoned, ae other seem to be
unable to locate the halibut bank.
On Drier Visit.
Mr. W. II. Brown, who taught tin
Bcappoose school for a long time prior
to two year ago, visited in this section
several day last week. Mr. ltrown left
her about two rear ago to accept a
position as teacher at an Indian acliool
In Montana, and after spending some
time) there was transferred to Oklohonta
to occupy eimilar position. He was
afterward transferred from there to
rtilata reservation, this state, and shortly
afterward appointed secretary of the
agency.
The Matter la Kemedletf.
When proper method are pursued It
I not a difficult matter many time, to
remedy existing Inconvenience and
evil. Last week Tux Mutt mentioned
the fact that certain kind of mail mat
ter should be shipped from Portland by
rail, thus accommodating nearly every
natron of the BU Helen postofflce.
The suggestion bad the desired effect, as
is evidenced by me loiiowing teller re
ceived by Postmsster Poltuan from the
Orrgonlan Publishing Co., on Tuesday:
"Ma. W. H. 1)oi.mah, 8t. Helen. Ore
gon. Dear Mr: The Oregonlan will be
dispatched via the railroad In the future.
If at any time yon have any cause for
complaint, please notify n and we will
give the matter our prompt attention.
Kindly Inform the publisher of Tux
Mirr to that effect. A note appeared in
hi paper in regard to this matter.
"Very respectfully,
"Obkoomiam Pt abiaitmo Co."
Farewell Party.
The member of the church ami choir
of the Kplscopal church of this city ten
dered Mr. P. H. Oray a farewell party
at the residence of Mr. Charles Muckle
Monday evening. Mr. Oray haa been
an Industrious and earnest worker in the
rati since hla arrival here about a
year ago, and in recognition of this fact
the member of hi church presented
him with a handsome combination
prayer book aud hymnal. Pr. Clin,
with a few appropriate and well-chosen
words, made the presentation on behalf
of the Guild, to which Mr. Oray res-
riooiled with such remark a to further
agratiata himsolf Into the good wishes
of those present. Mr. Oray ha Joined
the British Columbia diocese and ex
pect to leave Portland in about one
week for hie new Ueld of labor. Be
sides much delightful music during the
evening, there was a bountiful luncheon
spread by the hostess, Mrs. Switaor.
Mr. Oray leave the work here followed
br the best wishes of many person for
aucoesa in futur undertakings.
Operation to Continue.
It will be gratifying new to people of
Columbia county, and especially those
residing at Uoble, and Interested in the
operation of the extensive milling plant
conducted by the late II. B. itorthwtck.
to learn that the mill will be operated
as usual under the management of Mr.
I). J. Mooro, of Portlaurt, the adminis
trator of the estate. This authority
waa vested in Mr. Moore by the probate
court of Multnomah county last Friday,
the following Item appearing in the
Oregonlan hut Saturday :
"V. i. Moore, administrator of the
aetata of H. B, Ilorthwick, deceased,
waa authorised to purchase and deliver
to the United States, at Fort Stevens
and Port Canby, 800 cords, 600 cords
and 700 cord hardwood, according to
a contract, and also to deliver curtain
tins to the Southern Pacific Company in
fulfillment of a contract. He waa also
autoriaed to lease the mill in Columbia
county, and manufacture logs, etc.. on
band, so long a the aame la profitable.'
This fact means much in a financial
way for the people of Ooble, and in fact
for the entire county, a employment
for a very large number of persons will
thus be afforded. As the above clip
ping Indicates, operations will continue
o long a the plant can be made to pay
It way.
Hero for Treatment.
A peculiar case confront the eonnty
authorities at present. Mr. E. O. Sy
nions, who for about ten years, ha re
aided in Boaver valley, is an inmate ol
the county jail, having been aent here
last Friday by the justice of the peace
at Rainier precinct. Symon was ar
rested on a charge of larceny of canned
fruit from a neighbor, and since hi ar
rival here, when the facta in the case
were brought to light, the wonder is
that h did not appropriate all the edl
blea in the neighborhood to his own use.
The man ha diabetes in the very
worst form, and it deems almost impos
sible lor him to get enough food to ap
pease his appetite. At the preliminary
examination of the man before J ustice
Woodruff, the defendant practically
pleaded guilty to the charge, and he is
held to await the action of the grand

at the best, Mr. tsymons can live out

Prosperity In Kanaaa.
when the nooulieU of Kansas are not
kicking. It is a nrattv rood sign of pros
perous time. And they are not kick
ing, even gently at present. A Mr.
Hreidentlial, one oi ineir leauun, re
mark in the picturesque Kansan lan
guage ol the present prosperity :
"You can find it everywhere and can
cut it off in great chunks. There never
was a time wnen anyoooy oouiu nnu
more prosperous, more contented, or a
happier people. We have been through
i,a Rra nf adversitv. and we not only
appreciate the contrast, but have profited
by the experience.
Mr. Breidentbal is a state bank exam
iner, and he presumably know what he
is talking about, and assert that the
nannlaof Kansas have paid off no less
than $187,000,000 of mortgages during
the past two years. The state banks
have now 4,000,000 of the people's
money on deposit, wnue in invo mere

Kansas la, Wever, only oompara

prosperity began, bat the favorable con
