The Arnold animal bIiow wiih ex hibited Thnrtiday night at the I'enlu hiiIh city carnival, when. In ojenlng the cage, tlie big African lion, Mow, em-aped, hiding hlmnelf uuder the Meats. Immediately were heard the cries of fear from men, women and chil dren. Jsler saw that a stampede was Imminent. "Keep your seats," he yelled, and the crowd obeyed. Then the chase liegan for Mose, who ran from under the tent, down the main street of St. Johns and en tered the hall of a rooming house. Without hesitation Inler fired three shots to Hcure t he animal and or dered Mose's'cnge brought.

MINERS RUSHING TO ALASKA GOLD FIELDS Are the boom days of the Klondike rush In ls'.i" !tS going to 1 repeated as the result of told discoveries In the Iditarod country, is the tiuestlon which Seattle business men are dis cussing with Interest since the spring rush to Alaska began. The sailing of the steamer Jeffersou forSkagwny and the Victoria for .Nome, each loaded to capacity with passengers and freight bound for the new camp by different routes, and receipt of letters tilling of gold panning $5 to $"0 a pan along five new creeks has stimulated the gold fever as it has not been roused since the Klondj ke days. Now a steamer is londing to sail for Bethel, a small trading post at the head of ocean navigation on the Kusbkokwin river, whence the most direct route to the Iditarod and Innoko districts is found. If the mouth of the Kuskokwin is found to be safe for navigation by ocean vessels this will probably become the popular route to the new camps. Steamship men say they will handle fifteen thousand passengers for Alaska this month. Local jobbing houses are working day and night filling orders for supplies. Mining men estimate an output of a million In gold from t he Iditarod this year, and ten million next year when transportation routes are better es tablished and more claims worked. The prosperity of the new camp will probably effect the eutlre Northwest country, offering Increased markets for her products, and Scuttle will lie the direct benefactor. Guard Against Burglars The warning of Chief of l'tillce Cox to citizens to take social care of their Jewelry and silverware during the week of the rose festival In this city U timely. Any occa sion thnt draws people away from their homes to downtown streets Is the porch-climbers' nnd lock-pickers' opportunity, and the men of these branches of an old profession are (in the alert to Improve it. Of coarse, prudent people do not wear expen sive jewelry nor carry large sums of money on thtir persons while ming ling with crowds at a street fair. Kqually, of course, they do not leave their watches and other valuables that It Is unsafe for them to carry in uni rotccted places In their homes. Yet prudence nods sometimes In both of these cases and petty thieves thrive In consequence. Among the thousands who will visit lortlnnd for the rose festival within a week there will be the usual perhaps more than the usual quota of thieves. The police of the city will be vigilant and active, but no police force can cover every dwell ing and protect the easily-movable valuables of homes from the preda tory horde that find In prosperity nnd the preoccupation of the masses a rich harvest made easy for their gathering. Personal vigilance U a dependable quantity under all cir cumstances, and never more so than when It Is exercised In looking after Individual belongings. ( rcgotiian.

The cold water, however Is 'nought to have changed his mind 'is he yelled so lustily for help that the night operator and a number of uuests at the Mt. Hood Hotel beard him. He was pulled out of the water and brought up to the sta tion where a blanket secured at the hotel was w rapped around him and a doctor sent for. Later he was removed to the Cottage hospital. Ilcfure taking his plunge Spencer ad dressed a note to his sister In (ier u.aP.v which read, "You will never see tne agalu, good bye. John."

For the Leader Water hupuly Bvitrra is operated bv tombrtuei air reliable, aafa and cleanly. Your windmill pumpa atrr into the tank (which ia already full of air). The air, being elastic, ia compreued into upper part of the tank, and forces the water out through the pipea. This gives you pressure, so thkt powerful stream of water is on Up at every faucet, no mailer where it ia located. And this mrana aisa lute fire-protectwn, fur the pressure ia aluayi and always ready. Now. the old style gravity tanks were either put ia the attic or tit mated on a high tower out of doors. Ia the former case, their weight when full, cracked the plastering: or iney overflowed or leaked, flooding the rooms below. in tne case of the outside tanks, the water often froze solid in winter, necessitating expensive plumb- tng Dins; or it became Dot and atagoant Curing uc summer ana uuiu lor use.
