Himes. of the Oregon Historical Society, Portland, returned to La Grande from Boise City, this morning During the week since he left this city he visited Baker City. Huntington. Otario. Nampa and Boise, finding a number of pioneers, some of them as far back as 1845, and one, Mr. A. L. Richardson, of Boise, who came in 1843. His father died at Fort Hall, and his mother went on to Oregon City that Fall, and the fol lowing year the went into partnership with a noted character at the falls city by the name of Sidney W. Moss, a pioneer of 1842, a Methodist ministernamed Rev. A. F. Waller, a pioneer of 1840. prepar ing the necessary legal papers and per forming the ceremony. There were not many pioneers of the days prior to 1856 but that knew the "Main Street House," over which "Mr. Moss and the Widder" presided. It was here that Joseph Sho water Smith, a pioneer of 1 844, and who was elected to Congress in 1 868 on the Democratic ticket a large detachment of Pap Price's Army" contributing over whelmingly to that result, to the utter consternation and disgust of the Western Oregon Republicans was given the fam ous nickname of "Carving Fork", Smith, which he carried to the end of his life. The surprise in the Republicon camp may be well imagined when Logan, then standard bearer, came to the Cascade mountains with 1200 mjaority, and had that wiped out and a majority of 12C0 the other way secured by the presence of the "Price Contigent," already alluded to. At Baker City Mr. Himes had a very interesting interview with Mrs. Miriam Bonney Hibler, a pioneer of 1945, who spent the winter of 1845-6 at Sut er's Fort, near the present city of Sacramento California. As the Bonney family was descending the Sierra Nevada mountains, Mrs. Hibler, then a girl of fourteen, picked a handful of little nuggets, thus discover' ing gold two years before James W. Mar shall, an Oregonian of 1844, found it at the mill race of Sutter's mill, his alleged 'first ' discovery being on January 24 1843. Not long since Mr. Himes se cured a San Francisco paper, "The Cali- fornian," of March 15, 1848, which con tains the first printed reference tc Mar shall's discovery. This is about a "stick- full" .in length two inches without "scare heads" and apparently was not considered of any more importance than a street brawl or a dog fight. Times have changed. Mr. Hines will go on to Pendleton to morrow, and will stop at The Dalles and Hood River before returning ta Portland. He considers that his trip has been a very successful one. as he his gathered much data that will be of great import ance to those who, in the future have oc casion to study the history of the Pacific Northwest. Sciatica in nearly every case is the simple result of pressure on the sciatica nerve or on one of the several nerve strands that leave the lower part of the spine to form that great nerve. Curing the trouble is to a skilled anatomist like the Osteopath, a simple matter of finding just where the' pressure is occuring and then doing a vay with such pressure by mechanical manipulation suited to the case. Operations such as are frequently performed toy surgeons in extreme cases are never necessary for exactly the same results are secured by the Osteo path through the use to carta n leverages in the application of which he is the mas ter. Osteopathy has mado a great record in the treatment of static a record en tirely unpre:eHented and may be said to be the treatment for the trouble.

You can get it from him, and it is worth your while getting it. There is nothing startling about this magazine. There should be nothing startling about a decent magazine for women and the home. But this particular magazine is unique among all the so-called publications for women. You might not like it a little bit, and then, again, it might hit your fancy good and hard. I f you like fiction good, wide-awake, snappy stories both .serials and short storiesyou will like " Woman. " In fact, fiction is the big feature of the magazine. All the other magazines for women are cast on the same model a little bit of fiction, a few articles, more or less chit chat, some wise advice, a fashion department and a smattering of general miscellany. "WOMAN " doesn't look any more like this conventional model than a yellow dog looks like a race horse. It is built on new lines for a strictly woman's publication. To know what it is like you will have to get a copy of it. It would cost too much to tell you all about it in this advertisement. The price of WOMAN " is TEN CENTS A COPY, and the magazine is a very big one 192 pa.ies. By the way, two rattling good serial stories begin in this first num ber and it contains a big lot of other good things. You would' do well to ask your dealer for it before his supply is exhausted.
