Hon. L. L. Barow, of Portland
was in the city Tuesday. Formerly he
was a republican leader in this county.
Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Warner re
turned Saturday from Seattle, Wash ,
! after a few weeks' visit with relatives.
Mortimore Latourette, who was
brought home fiom Portland last week,
where he nnderwent a surgical opera
tion, is rapidly improving.
Bay Krumm, who has been sojourn
ing in Alaska for the par t three years,
dropped in on hie folks in Portland and
Oregon City' very unexpectedly Tues
day. E.E. Charman and brother, Leonard,
left laat Friday evening for Southern
California. Mr. E. . Charman has
been in failing health for some time and
went south for his health. His brother
who accompanied him on his trip, return
ed the first of the week.
Miss Florence Weetover, who has
been teaching in South Bend, Wash.,
resigned her position at that place last
Saturday and returned to Oregon Ciiy
Sunday, leaving on the afternoon train
for Salem, from where she went to
Dallas, Polk county, to take a better po
sition. Colonel K. A. Miller one of Oregon
City's most prominent land attorneys
and pleasant gentleman returned to his
home in this city on last Saturday after
an absence at Catblamett,Wash.,of sev
eral days, where he was engaged in the
trial of one of the most important lo -sine
cases that has come up in the
courts of the state of Washington in re
cent years. Colonel Miller was feeling
Quite good and had reason to do so. The
case at isaue was between J' B. Yeon,
who bad the logging privilege of the
Elochomen river and who sued
Henry E. Armstrong for $4,0t0 for tolls
on logs floated down this stream. There
had been some arrangement by which
each was to pay niB prorata ol the ez
penees of keeping the stream open for
logging purposes. Colonel Miller rep'
resented the defendant in the action of
Mr. Armstrong and filed his counter
claim against Mr. Yeon amounting to
$163 more than the claim for which the
complainant had instituted his action.
The case came up in the Circuit Court
before Judge Mice and every step of the
way was bitterly contested. There were
two attorneys for the' complainant and
three for the defendant. The case was
submitted to a jury after full argument
and the jury gave a verdict for Colonel
Miller's client for every dollar he
claimed, wiping out entirely the $4,000
claim for which Yeon had instituted his
action. The outcome of the trial is quite
a compliment to Colonel Miller and the
other lawyers engaged with him.

"Servants in Ecuador.'
The
Hire
Traveler I Forced to
Many to Serve Him. ' j
If you were living in Ecuador and!
wished to hire a servant you could
hardly get one by himself or herself,
but would be compelled to take up with
a drove of them, probably far outnum- i
bering your own family. For example,
with a cook you would have to receive 1
her husband and children, and perhaps
also her father and mother, Into your !
louse to bed and board, and each would !
bring along all his or her portable prop-1
erty, consisting mainly of domestic
pets, such as pigs, chickens, rabbits,!
dogs and other "live stock." The bus-;
band may have some trade which he ,
follows during the day, but at meal
times and when night comes he returns '
to the bosom of his family and yours. ;
It would be considered downright ln
bumanityto refuse them food and shel- i
ter, and not a servant In Ecuador
would work for so mean a master or
mistress. The children of your cook :
may be utilized for light services, such
as running errands, weeding the gar-,
den and tending the baby, but the nu
merous brood is apt to be "light finger
ed" and certain to be lousy,-dirty and
probably diseased. There Is no help
for it, however, because "el costumbre" 1
has decreed that for every servant you ;
hire you must expect at least a dozen !
extra mouths to feed. , 1
Nor is this the worst of It Occasion
ally the cook's relatives from another
village come to pay her a visit of a fort
night or two lasting as long as you
will tolerate it men, women and chll- j
dren, bringing more dogs, pigs, chick- j
ens, etc., to be housed and fed. Fortu-1
nately, they are not accustomed to
"downy beds of ease" or sumptuous j
living, but consider themselves in j
clover if plentifully supplied with 1
beans, corn meal and potato soup, and
will sleep contentedly on the stones of
the patio or the straw of the stable. j
The danger is that some of the stranger ;
hangers on may not be as honest as
the cook herself is supposed to be, and
cases are known where thieves and :
even murderers thus gained admission

I used to think that marriage made
men old, sour and suspicious. I find
I was mistaken. It is not the wife; it

Bow Climate Ha Changed.
In Switzerland a mean temperature
equal to that of north Africa at the
present time is shown by Its fossil
flora to have prevailed during the mlo
cene or middle tertiary epoch. An
thropoid apes lived In Germany and
France; fig and cinnamon trees flour
ished at Dantzic; iu Greenland, up to
70 degrees of latitude, magnolias
bloomed and vines ripened their fruit,
while in Spitsbergen and even In Grin
nell Land, within little more than 8
degrees of the pole, swamp cypresses
and walnuts, cedars, limes, planes and
poplars grew freely, water lilies cov
ered over standing pools and Irises
lifted their tall heads by the margins
of streams and rivers. Edinburgh Re

In original literature the barber Is
a great figure, and Arabian tales are
full of him. In Italy and Spain he was
often the brightest man In town, and
his shop was headquarters for wit
and intrigue. Jasamln became famous
as a poet in southern France and re
cited his verses with razor, scissors,
brush nnd comical gestures as he dress
ed the hair and benrd of fine ladles and
gentlemen in his shop. . He had a great
run, made money, hived fame, and

your father, lover

him to ache." Chicago Record-Herald.
