making good steady progress, with a
likelihood of reaching Salem in about

men of the World demonstration at the
Lewis & Clark Exposition the latter part
of last week, the delegation from this
city made a most favorable showing.
The honor of leading the grand street
parade Thursday evening fell to the Ore
gon City Woodmen Band while the uni
form team from the local camp was
awarded second prize, amounting to $75
for the best drilled team. The exercises

ers. The examinations were held in the
county court room and began Wednes

Got Wheel Here Man at Portland
Chief of Police Burns'last Thursday re
covered a bicycle that was stolen about
four weeks ago at Albany. The wheel
was found at a second-hand store where
a strange young man offered the mach
ine for sale. Having been notified of
the theft of a wheel, the proprietor went
to look up the number of the bicycle. In
the meantime the wheelman had disap
peared leaving the wheel behind. Chief
Burns, suspecting that the thief had
gone to Portland, notified the police of
ficers of that city who were successful
in apprehending the young man who was
placed under arrest.
Were Working Not Lost
P- A. Katrclough and James Heckart
arrived Monday from Ogle Mountain and
dissipated a feeling of great anxiety on
the part of relatives as to their safety.
The men had not been heard of for sev
eral days following the time they were
due to return and it was feared that they
had met with a serious accident. But
instead the men were detained at the
mines in completing the construction of
a road, over which milling machinery
that is being purchased at Portland, will
be transported to the mines and installed
early in the Fall. Messrs. Fairclough
and Heckart brought out with them some
of the finest samples of ore that this
promising property yielded.
New Water Mains
The Water Commission met Monday
night and transacted routine business, in
structing Superintendent Howell to put
in a four-inch main from Seventh to
Eighth streets, on Centtr street. This
will accommodate- R. J. Goodfellow, who
has just completed a new residence in
that locality. The superintendent was al
so authorized to purchase 1400 feet of
10-inch main, which will be sufficient, to
carry water from the filter plant to Cen
ter street. A 10-inch main has already
been put through Third street, which is
being improved, In order that the street
will not be torn up later. Before next
Summer the oBard of Water Commission
ers will extend the 10-inch main as far
as the reservoir, a distance of about one
mile from the filter station.

from a trip up the river to the Spaulding
Company's big log. drive which is on its
way to mill. He found between itbe

Thousands of Women
ARE MADE WELL AND STRONG
Success of Lydla E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound Rests Upon the Fact that It
Really Does Make Sick Women Well
Thousands upon thousands of Ameri
can women have been restored to
health by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegeta
ble Compound. Their letters are on file
in Mrs. Pinkham's office, and prove this
statement to be a fact and not a mere
boast.
" Overshadowing indeed is the success
of this great medicine, and compared
with it all other medicines and treat
ment for women are experiments.
Why has Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege
table Compound accomplished its wide
spread results for good ?
Why has it lived and thrived and
done its glorious work for a quarter of
a century ?
Simply and surely because of its ster
ling worth. The reason no other med
icine has even approached its success
is plainly and positively because there
is no other medicine in the world so
good for women's ills.

a palliative, but simply because it is

Play a Little Poker Anyway
Despite the fact that Oregon City is
known to be a closed town with respect
to gambling, poker playing Is conducted
regularly at a number of places. Games
are not run as openly as formerly and
in the pursuit of the game no coin is
visible, chips being the only evidence of
reward for the , man holding the winning
hand. Interference by the authorities
with the games as they are conducted
is not probable because of the lack, of
evidence upon which to secure a convic
tion. However, nothing but poker is
being played and the games are conduct
ed in resorts not exposed to the public
Sheriff Shaver is absent on his vacation
and until he returns the probable policy
of the authorties will not be known.
It was Sheriff Shaver, assisted by Con
stable Trembath, who made the raid
about a month ago by which the games
were originally suppressed.

The aid of scientific inventions is not

many plain warnings of its approach as

can be so quickly reached and checked,

consumption.

General Summary
The week, like the two preceding ones,
was warm and dry. These conditions
were excellent for harvesting grain, and
this work has been pushed along with un
usual rapidity. Fall wheat and barley
yields continue good, both in quantity
and quality, but spring wheat is not com
ing up to expectations, especially in the
Willamette valley, where rust and the
aphides were so plentiful earlier in the
season. The straw of the spring wheat
and oats was heavy and the heads as a
rule, of average size, but the berry in
many cases is shriveled, which accounts
for the shortage. Pasturage is very short
the valleys, but it continues fairly
good in the mountain ranges, and stock
keeps in unusually good condition. All
streams are falling and the water sup
ply for irrigation is getting scarce. Sugar
beets, field onions and early potatoes tre
making good advancement, but late po
tatoes are at a stand still and need rain
badly. Corn is extra good. Hops show
improvement and the lice have nearly all
disappeared, but growers generally ex
pect yields below the average, and also a
return of lice with the advent of favorable
weather for their propagation.
READ'S GUARDIAN DISCHARGED.
He Jumped the Fence
One has no idea of what he can do un
til he gets right up against a situation
that requires timely action in order to
postpone calling the coroner or the am
bulance. That was the experience last
Saturday afternoon of A. Thomas, of
Beaver Creek. Mr. Thomas purchases
cattle for the Smith Meat Company, of
Portland, and was driving an unruly
steer to the boat landing for shipment.
When opposite E. G. Caufield's residence,
the animal without a moment's warning,
turned and darted for Thomas who with
surprising dexterity managed to escape
the sharp horns and vaulted the fence
with the agility of a trained college ath
lete. . With the assistance of members
of the boat crew and the persuasive in
fluence of a huge club, Thomas managed
to land the steer on the boat without fur
ther mishap.
For a Grange Day at Exposition
C. H. Welch, J. W. Brock and Mrs. C.
Milem were appointed Saturday by Even
ing Star Grange. Patrons of Husbandry,
to correspond with the state masters of
Oregon, Washington, Idaho and all states
of the Pacific coast, relative to a Grange
day at the Lewis and Clark' Exposition.
Mrs. H. L. Vail brought the matter up,
and she remarked that there was great
disappointment that the Grange was not
represented in some form at the Exposi
tion, being the leading farmers' organiza
tion in' the country. It was probably too
late to locate headquarters, out not too
late to" have a special day for the organ
ization with representatives from all por
tions of the Pacific Coast , and appropri-
fcerclses. Chairman Welch said yes-

to the membership roll. Harry J. Moore

ing was delivered at .2 o'clock by Har-
Concludlng Chapter in Former Clergy
man's Sensational Career.
The dissolving of the guardianship of
James C. Read in the probate court here
Monday morning recalls the sensational
career in these parts va few years ago of
the ward, who was at one time pastor of
the First Baptist Church of this city.
Being suspected of having become in
volved in a scandal with a fair member
of his flock. Rev. Read, who was held in
popular esteem by the members of his
congregation and the general public, dis
appeared suddenly. The discovery of the
clergyman's clothing on the bank of the
Willamette river near Portland a few
days thereafter was accepted by many
as the mute evidence of a suicide, but
a thorough dragging of the river near the
scene of the discovery, failed to yield
the body of the supposed dead man, who
was next heard of at Moline, Illinois.
An attempt to have himself re-instated
in the ministry failing. Read next
came into unusual prominence when he
attempted "re hold up the Citizen's Bank
in East Portland. He successfully evad
ed the authorities for a time but was
subsequently apprehended while in the
act of "sweating" twenty dollar gold
coins. Through the influence of various
fraternal organizations and the interces
sion of friends, Read escaped a sentence
to the penitentiary on a felonious charge
and was committed to the state insane
asylum in July, 1896.
In the following year he was discharg
ed from that institution on condition that
his relatives provide for his immediate
transportation to. an eastern state. This
was done and the dissolution of the
guardianship was wade this week on the
showing that Read is now competent to
manage his own affairs. Read is now
residing in this state, being a resident
either of Portland or Milwaukie.
A Warning to Mothers.-
. Too much care cannot be used with I
small children during the hot weather of V
the summer months to guard against ! B
bowel troubles. As a rule it is not only i M
necessary to give the child a dose of ! J?
castor oil to correct any disorder of the j p
bowels. Do not use any substitute, but A
give the old fashioned castor oil, and 1 5
see that it is fresh, as .rancid oil nause- ' B
ates and has a tendency to gripe. If this j A
does not check the bowels give Chamber- j a
Iain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem- j W
edy and then a dose of castor oil, and 1 0
the disease may be checked in its in- I A
cipiency and all danger avoided. The j w
castor oil and this remedy- should be ;
procured at once and kept ready for in- j
stant use as soon as the first indication
of any bowel trouble appears. This is i
the most successful treatment known j
and may be relied upon with implicit con- j
fidence even in cases of cholera infan- j
turn. For sale by Geo. A. Harding. j
Women who are troubled with painful
or irregular menstruation, backache,
bloating (or flatulence), leucorrhoea,
falling, inflammation or ulceration ef
the uterus, ovarian troubles, that
"bearing-down" feeling, dizziness,
faintness, indigestion, nervous pros
tration, or the blues, should take im
mediate action to ward off the serious
consequences and be restored to health
and strength by taking Lydia E. Pink-
ham s Vegetable Compound. Anyway,
