Greene, city attorney for St. Johns, last Tues day, "that I saw the greatest wind storm that Oregon's history ever showed. Say, but it was a frightl And there are yet to be found in the shape of fallen trees, broken short off, relics of that crcat storm. "I had just come from San Fran cisco by boat and, by the way, I was never so sick in my lifel The sea was awful choppy but if it hadn't been I'd have been just as sick. Every few minutes I'd make a grab over the rail of the shaky old craft that I was on and save my liver front going into the ocean and swallow it once more. "Hut that has nothing to do with this storm. I'd been here three days and was up in Clackamas county where my relatives were located. It was a few minutes after eight o'clock in the morning. We all stood at u window and watched that wind blowl It was great I "When we essayed to walk out in the open it was found impossible for we were thrown about like so many wisps of straw. Only bv crawling could we get from the house to the barn and I was feel ing so light (after my recent illness on board the boat) that I dared not go out. I knew if that wind ever secured a grip 011 me I'd float around up mere forever more. "It was not a cyclone but a straight wind the like of which lws never been seen before or since in Oregon. Large sums of money were expended to nut roads in decent shape and to clear the debris winch the two-hour storm created. " lite older settlers will remem ber this storm very vividly. I re member this date distinctly be cause I'd been here but three davs and at first I thought it was all done for my benefit because of my arrival. Uut it wasn't. And I'll tell you that I never desire to see anything like it again." MM .... I!. I.! , ! XIIVII lie III 1113 tlUI. The drip. "Before we can sympathize with others, we must have suffered our selves." No one can realize the suffering attendant upon tin attack of the grip, unless he has had the actual experience. There Is prob ably no disease that causes so much physical and mental agony, or which so successfully defies medical aid. All danger from the grip, however, may le avoided by the prompt use of Chamlcrlain'8 Cough Remedy. Among the tens of thousands who have used this rem edy, not one case has ever been re tmrtcd that has resulted in pneu monia or that has not recovered.

Henry was nice fellow while things came rosy but he couldn't stand hard luck worth a cent. After the sheriff's deputies came to his alley to see if Henry was running a blind pig and found cards, a card table, liquor, liquor glasses, and such evidences, in the cellar of the place Ross seemed to lose heart. It was generally understood that the place had been getting rid of more liquor than it should but there was no proof. Thpre seems to be no good reason why a bowl ing alley cannot be made to pay liere if a conservative rent could be secured and a first-class place be conducted. Had Close Call. Last Friday J. J.
