A mowment is now on by the Port land Elks to procure a herd of the antlered animals and place them in a park in the metropolis during the na tional meet of the lodge bearing that name next July. It is an ideal thought, for many of the easterners who have been members of the Elks lodge for years never saw anything but the teetn of a real elk. They have seen oil paintings and hane some idea, but they do not realize what a great ani mal the elk is: they cannot under stand in the effete east that Eastern Oregon still possesses a few of the herd and if they were permitted to actually gaze upon a live eft they would return home not only more thoroughly lmbifed with the splendid brder. but they would hare turner idea or the west with Us wide areas and untrammeled opportunities. When you pay your taxes and won der what makes them ao hi&h, just ask the county officials to show you a comparison of what Union county has paid into the state tax fund for the last tea -years and note the enormous Increase. That will explain to a great extent where the tax payers' money is going. And bear In mind for many of these years we have had governors and an administration that claimed to be "reformers . Astoria "claims the Centennial brought large Investors from the east and that some big deals have been pulled off which can be traced to the Centennial as a drawing, card. Glad to hear it, for really the Centennial was a hum show," considering how much money was spent upon it. Secretary Wilson is not a drinking man but neither is he a prohibition ist, according to recent reports. TIlErWillRYS One of the Most Dramatic of the Legends of France.' A MEETING AND A WARNING.

Of all the Kreucb historical legends there Is none mure dramatic than that pertaining to "the four Henrys." The tradition la that on a wintry night as the rain fell In torrents an old woman who passed tn the country for a witch and who "inhabited a miserable cabin in the forest of St Germain was aroused by a loud knocking at her door. She opened it and saw a cava lier, who requested hospitality. A pran of cheese, and a morsel of black bread were all she set before mux - "1 have nothing more. said she. "See. here Is all that tithes, taxes, sub sidles and other extortions have left me to offer distressed travelers, be sides which my neighbors call me a witch and rob me of the produce of my little farm." -Tls a cruel situation,' said the . .. ) ai at young man. ana were i , uug vi France 1 would suppress the taxes." "God bear you." answered the old woman. ' . '' vi ' The cavalier was about to commence bis repast when a fresh knock at the door restrained him. Again a gentle man. drenched with rain, demanded shelter. "Is that yon. Henry T said the one. "It is. Henry." replied the other. The - old woman discovered from their conversation that tbey belonged to a numerous hunting party led by King Charles IX. and that they had been dispersed by a storm. "My good woman." said the second comer, "have you naught else to offer us? ' "Nothing." was the reply. "Well, then." said the other. "we must divide it" The first Henry gave signs of re fusal; but observing tbe resolute eye and haughty bearing of the second, he replied in a tone of chagrin; ; "Let us divide It tben." Thev sat down opposite each other. and one bad already commenced cut ting tbe bread with bis dagger wnen a third blow was struck at the door, again a young nobleman entered again a Henry. Tbe meeting was most singular. The first Henry endeavored to hide the bread and cheese. The second re placed it on the table and set bis sword by bis side. Tbe third Henry smiled. :. ' ' "What! Will you spare me none of your aupper, theoT said he. "The supper." said the first Henry, "rightly belongs to the first comer." The supper." said the second Henry, "belongs of right to bim who knows best how to defend it" The third Henry colored and said haughtily. "Perhaps It rather belongs to him who knows best bow to win It" At these words the first Henry drew his dagger, the two others tbelr swords. They bad .scarce made a few passes when a fourth blow was beard at the door. The portal opened a fourth Henry appeared. At, the sight of the naked swords the last comer drew his own and. tak ing tbe weakest aide, fought vigorous iy. ' The old woman, frightened, hid ber self. and It was well that she did. for the awords dashed to pieces very thing that came in their way. The lamp fell, was extinguished, and all four fought in the dark. The noise of the swords lasted for some time, but gradually died away. Then the old woman crept out of her biding place, relit the lamp andvbebeld the four combatants stretched on tbe floor. She examined tbenx Fatigue bsd over powered them more than loss of blood. They rose up one after another, ashamed of what they bad done. "Come." said one: "let us now sup with good humor and without quarreling." But on looking for the supper they perceived It lying on the floor, swfled with their feet and stained with blood. The old woman, sitting la a corner, fixed her dark eyes on the authors of the mischief. , "Why do yon look at us In that man ner demsnded the first Henry. "1 see your destinies written in your foreheads." answered the injured wo man. The second Henry harshly command ed her to reveal them. Tbe two oth ers laughed outright. With outstretched arms the old wo man replied: "Aa you all four have been united in this cabin, you will all be reunited in one and the same des tiny. As you have trodden underfoot and soiled with blood the bread of hos pitality, you will trample underfoot and soil with blood the power of which yon We're Showing an Elegant Line of Fine? .IT, If 17 i . r a ( W 11'- f " ? ill II j Ill .ill; A New Assortment Just Received The styles and beautiful fabrics in these beautiful dresses would do credit to a store twice this size.
