Letters telling something of the nature of business for the merchants of Oregon who attend the state con vention in Portland, are being: re ceived in La Grande. One of them reads: . Portland, Jan. 12. Mr. Charles Air bert Small, secretary, . La Grande Merchants Association, La Grande, Oregon. Dear air The ninth annual convention of the Oregon Retail Mer chants association is to be held in the city of Portland, February IS, 16 ; and 17thv As you know this is the first time in six years that our state association has convened in the me- i tropolis. r The Portland ' retailers . are ex tremely active in preparing- enter tainments and diversions for us, and desire that every merchant in the - state who can possibly do so will at- , tend this convention. A committee of 25 local members in Portland will be supplemented by a re- ' eeption committee of 60, who will . assume entire charge of every dele : gate from the time he arrives in the city until the convention has been ad journed. I therefore ask that the matter-of the attendance of your members at this convention be taken up at the earliest possible moment Never be fore in the history of our association has there been such a wide interest, evinced in our activities by merchants - from every section of the state.

ISM! ' New York, Jan. 13. Lorlys Eltbn Roarers, a lawyer of New York City, who went there from the south many years ago, is the- central figure in one of the strangest tragedies crim inal annals have known. A. woman who called ' herself Mrs. Ida Rogers, mother of two of his children, gave them bichloride of mercury tablets, and after lingering for some days they died. She also took a tablet and hope for her was given up by the doctors. At the same time it was learnedif Rogers was married to a sister of Prof. Giddings of Columbia Univer- i sity, perhaps the best known profe3-, sor in that institution. They lived in an expensive apartment house in Ne'v i York. Later jt ' was learned : thut Rogers was divorced some years ago and. that his first wife lived in New York. He has visited her regularly, j Statements have been made that the three women were known to , each other and knew all about Roger's re-1 iations with them, though this 1 has ' teen denied on the part of the pres. ent wife. ; .. HE SIMPLY FORGOT. The Hurrltd Married Man ' Didn't - Think, but His Wile Did. He really meant to kiss bis wife this I morning as be left the bouse to go to ' S work. i i But be forgot He was tbluktng of , i the cares or the shop, ot the thousand and one matters wblcb concern blm la ' i tbe big world wlia which be wrestles i J for a living tor ber and tbe kids. , 1 1 Anyhow, be snlu to himself after- i ! ward, what's a kiss? It oughtn't to t take such a mere formality to con vince of bis love and trust tbe woman be baa made tbe mistress of bis borne, - the mother or bis children. Pshaw: The chances are she never noticed tbe omission. So why should be worry) But back borne a woman wept wept : not because sbe donbted ber husband's constancy, not because she felt tbnt be wouldn't prove big and true and Due In an emergency, out because, wo manlike, sbnt wltbln Dome's foui wails. doomed to another day of petty run- tine, much of It to be endured ail alone, sbe wanted that kiss ns a token and a memory wunted it as proof tliat not in her case could the poet write: I! i Re a lost, ycu see.
