Eambree, a traveling barber, is now lying at the county poor farm near Union, with a broken leg. For the past week he' had been em ployed in the Coffey barber shop of this city and Saturday evening left for Pendle ton on the late number five. Because he wasa traveling barber does not inferr that he was stealing a ride, for he had pur chased a ticket to that place. At Hilgard he stepped to the vastibule to smoke, and, accordim to his own story, the door was not closed. When the passenger had at tained its regular sreed. the man leaned oser to expectorate. Simultaneously, the train lurched and Eambree was thrown from the moving train, falling in such a way as to break his right leg near the hip. The accident was not noticed by anyone, and consequently the man lay there writhe ing in pain from about eleven thirty at night until eight thirty Sunday morning, at which time he was seen by the en gineer on passenger number six. He was picked up and brought to this city where Doctor M. K. Hall temporarily set the break and shipped him to the county poor farm lit Union. Mr. Eambree formerly owned a barber shop in Idaho and it is only lately that he has taken to the roaming business.

WILL RETIRE . The owner of the Union Woolen mill announces that he expects to close down that highly prosperous institution about the first of the coming year, unless it is old and operated by others. He finds hi hands full at the present time and is com pelled to drop some one of the different enterprises under his control. It is doubt ful if there is a better paying institution in the vaUey than the Union Woolen Mills, and the determination of the owner to re tire rrom this line of work open a way for younger blood to take up the proposi tion and push it. The mill will bear en larging and operating upon a more ex. tensive basis and it rests with our capital ist to keep the concern going. Sever of our leading men have signified a will ingness to take stock in the enterprise, and it would seem that there is ample capital in this section to take up the en. tire stock, enlarge the mill and run it to the limit. There i now and ha been for teveral year, a demand for more blanket than thi mill can possibly make, and the opening seems to be all that capital should desire or should expect of any business proposition.

D. C, September, 17 The naval bureau chiefs are at work on their annual estimates, which are to be ready for departmental adoption within few weeks. There was a chance this year that Secretary Bonaparte would de part from the method adopted by Sec retary Moody and permit the bureau officials to make up their own estimates for reviion by the department, instead of requiring them to submit only such reccommendations as the department chose to approve in advance. It is held that the bureau chiefs should be allowed to make the estimates they believe to be justified and thatthe department should then revise them and submit the finally approved list, along with the bureau estimates to Congress. Thi would have one effect, at least greatly desired by the bureau chiefs-that of relieveing them of the blame for cutting down estimates which comes from the navy yards and stations. It is expected the reductions to be made this year will equal the revision of last year.

It is only a question which t,p writer, for the word is well and truly used in the singular sense. The typewriter that has come to ttay is not the one of ten year back, when in novation caused such a stir in business circles. Then nobody ever thought of as sociating the word "alignment" with a typewriter; it satisfied the user so long as the machine would write some fashion or other, and with constant break-downs ever-present repair bills were paid smil ingly. But things are different now. Time tests all things. The business man has become wise. - He wants what he pays for. He has learned the value (from dearly-bought experience) of a machine which will write properly, not only the day it is bought, but perpetually. He also wants to be satisfied upon the peculiarities of the many machines now before the public. The individual claims of our product places its position beyond all question, and the few particulars we give on the following pages will, no doubt be found of interest to those buyer who "want what they pay fur" ABOUT THE OLIVER The No. 3 Model, which has secured such a firm foothold on the universal markets, constitutes what is reckoned as the most perfect typewriter possible. WHY? Here is our answer IT WRITES IN SIGHT . There is no carriage to lift; no con structional parts to peer over. Your work is there right before you. ALIGNMENT Each type-bar is a double or U-shaped one and the alignment it secured thereby. No lots or so-called "guides" are neces sary to preserve the alignment of the Oliver. The U-shaped type-bar does it. SIMPLICITY ' In the construction of the Oliver less than one-half the usual number of parts i employed, consequently what there i to learn it learnt quickly. MANIFOLDING The freedom of the Oliver type-bar permit of any desired force, so that In heavy manifolding equally good result are obtained first to last copy. From one to twenty copies can be made simultaneously, without materially increased exertion. STENCILING No extra-heavy touch Is needed to cut a perfect stencil on the Oliver. The or dinary touch is sufficient, therefor al risk of "cutting out" is avoided. - The type of the Oliver cut the finest stencil pos sible. OPERATION ineuiiver never tires. Its operation a pleasure, even when used without intermission. It touch is beautifully elastic and most responsive. The fastest operator cannot overtake it speed. NON-LOCKING TYPE-BARS The type-bars of the Oliver cannot lock no matter how many key be depressed at one time. TYPE CLEANING The type of the Oliver are not, as with other machines, cleaned individually, but collectively, and the case with which this cleaning in done makes excuse for diity type impi ssible. LINE RULING Lines, either vertical or horizontal, and in any color, may be ruled upon paper whilst it is in the machine, and without the aid of a ruler. Ordinarily, any neces sary ruling is left, of course, until it can be done in the usual way, but is usually forgotten. REMOVABLE CARRIAGE The carriage is removed from the ma chme(for cleaning and other purposes) instantly, without manual interferences with any fastenings whoever, and is just as easily replaced. PAPER RELEASE By a single movement absolute freedom it given to the paper, leaving it to be either straightened or otherwise moved in any desired position. No force it nec essary, consequently no soiling or tearing, of the paper occurs. CARD WORK The Oliver typewriter will feed the stiffest and stoutest card as easily at a tingle theet of paper. A WORD ON INVOICING If there it anything which denv nstratet to the full the value of the Oliver for tab ular work, it is invoicing. To those users of hidden-writing machines who attempt to satisfactorily prepare invoices thereon, the futility of such a task must surely be apparent. Mechanical contrivances (known as "tabulators") have been de vised, it is true, to assist them, but to much time it lost in "setting" the mech anism, to which must be added the con stant raising of the carriage (occasioned by the operator's lack of confidence it the tabulator), that the invoice could very well be writte? by hand in half the time. Fur thermore, tabulators on other than Oliver typewriters, interfere very seriously with vital parts of the typewriter itself, render ing it very unreliable for ordinary use. The Oliver is the ideal machine for in voicing. With its visible writing, per manent printing point, indicator and per fect release key, margins are instantly found and maintained all with greatest simplicity. No tabulator is necessary on the Oliver, but, if one it wanted, w tup ply the best tabulator mad. Bear in mind, however, that we save extra cost and give better result. Again, with the wonderful - manifolding power of the Oliver, it will make as man copie of an invoice a required, and every copy clear and distinct. The use of an Oliver for invoicing in sures Speed, legibility, efficiency, economy, neatness and regularity. . The Oliver is already adopted by some of the largest business house for invoicing as well as correspondence purposes, fur ther particulars of which we shall be pleased to furnish on application.
