Oregon City's common drinkine cud yet stays on the job, despite the order of the state board of health abolishing it in public places in Oregon. Wonder if the city gets around this on the ground that the city is not a public piace: Franks Rain, whose real name Is Frank Dunlap, and who celebrated la bor day in strenuous style Monday, was fined $20 and given a twenty days' jail sentence by Recorder Stlpp. He promptly paid the fine and then the jail sentence was remitted. Head Council Voak of the Wood men of the World, was entertained by Willamette Falls Camp Tuesday night, and a splendid time was enjoyed.

You wouldn't think it, but the motor vehicle law gives the pedestrian an equal right with the auto on cross walks, and you haven't got to jump sideways to get off the earth just be cause a driver blows his horn. But we wouldn't advise you to stand on your legal rights in Oregon City, or on the crosswalks. It's cheaper to hump than to pay hospital bills. - Auto owners have been experiment ing with mirror reflections In the tun nel at the foot of the south end road and the city council has been asked to take the matter up. There is a sharp right angle just through the tunnel, and on account of the long hill autos usually go through -the tun nel at a sharp clip, to get a start. And this point is very dangerous, for the reason that a driver of an auto or team cannot tell what Is coming. It is claimed that a large mirror will solve this problem and make safe this dangerous turn. Mrs. Lei le Bier, sister of Linn E. Jones, of this city, whom .the Courier reported as dangerously ill last week, has improved silgiitly during the past few days, bieng able to take a small amount of nourishment.

Paddack, of Portland, will speak at the Congrega tional church next Sunday morning and evening. Dr. Paddack is a man of impressive presence and a forceful speaker. As Superintendent of the State churches lie has recently re ceived more than forty applications from Congregational ministers desir ing to locate in Oregon so the vacancy left by Rev. Mr. Proctor will probably soon be filled. A number of Congre gational families from the East are arranging to spend the winter in Ore gon City while looking about for per manent locations. Some of these are men of means and will make invest ments. Frank Rain, a farmer, came In to celebrate labor day Monday, and ac cording to police stories he did a thorough and scientific Job. He took on a load of booze and then got noisy and very conspicuous. He evidently thought he was mayor, chief of police and street commissioner. Chief Shaw held him up and warned him that tf he didn't drop some of his Jobs and keep more quiet be would give him another one In the Jail. Rain con tinued to be busy and noisy, so Chief Shaw gathered him in. In the jail Rain went after everything that wasn't nailed down and turned it over. He pulled down the stove pipe and broke up the furnishings until he was finally put In a dark cell. Mortgage Loans Private moner to loan on good mortgage security.

'The following letter is a daily diary of Kenneth Latourette on his trip through Hussia to umna : Monday evening, Aug. 8, 1010. We have junt crogsed the Jeuosee river (Lbelieve that is the way it is spelled).' The days' ride has been beantiful one, although somewhat warmer than yesterday. Nearly all day we seem to have been olimbtng in among low mils ana long slopes. The country lias been wooded, not with as heavy timber as we have on tne coast, out who pine or nr, or trees that look like them. The coun try reminds me mucn-ot Montana as one enterB the Rockies from the east, ana i can naraiy realize that tills is not America. Only tins is so much vaster than America and so much less settled, The Russians have been here almost from the time of the May flower in America, and yet this is still a wilderness. Occasionally one finds quite a town on the railway, Dut one lias tne strange feeling of be Ing in a bit of traveling civilization, a railway train on a narrow track of Bteel in the midst of a primeval wii dernesB. One likes t dream about the wonderful resources of the land we are pasmng through, its great riv era, its immense plains so fertile and well watered, its mountans, itsfor- ests, and the mineral resources which lie hidden as yet. The land but wants the touch of a great people to spring into life aud to become the home of teeming millions, the seat of a great civilization. Who will settle it? Will the Russians or will the Chinese spread with the coming of new life and found here a greater empire? When one thinks of the oreat stretches of the globe whioh are not ooenpied, the part which mankind occupies sinks into insignificance, and onr own littleness impresses one, and the possibilities of the raoe as well. One longs to live for some thousands of years and watoh developments. But if ones faith is true, we shall be able to Bee what is going on and to live tor more than a thousand years. Today at one of our stoDs manv of the passengers made a dive for a spot oenina a nouse. it was a snnuc of cold water from whinh one dared to drink, a rare thing in these parts. I filled a kettle for my missionary irienas ana we eniovett a lone, nnnl drink. It may have been unhygienic but if it was it belied its looks. . We are delayed for a 0 hour or more by nn accident ahead of us an engine off the track or something. I have been out for an hour's walk with my English friend. The air is won derf ol, like our mountain air at home, and the stars aie dear as diamonds. The old familiar stars are there, the Great Dipper, the North Star and the rest, and I think of them as having looked down on all of you a few hours before thrh Another week alinnld cpb ma in Peking and two. weeks more In Knt.. ing. It will be a genuine relief to tret to a plaoe where I can put down my suit cases ana stay for a time. Wlion I get to Oharepha I propose to stay anohored for some time. Any one who dares to offer me a position aa traveling agent for anything, from misBions on down, will do so at the peril of his life. The country' has been i liferent: i?io rolling, timbered, much like Amer ica, and I still feel as though 1 were in the States. The weather in warm. but not at all uncomfortably so. We had a heavy hail storm this afternoon, wniuii uuoieu nings on. Why Worry About A LOOK over our canned goods will chase away your trouble forever.
