turned from Gilliam Countysays It began
to rain there last Thursday, and within
the next few days three Inches of. rain
fell, which has been of great benefit to the
grain crops, which were beginning to
dry up. The rain will bring out the Fall

THE FREDERICKSBURG.
Strong: Attractions of the Honac This
Week.
It is a matter of comment among prom
inent Eastern visitors to Portland that
in the variety and merit of its usual
attractions The Fredericksburg compares
favorably with any of the best vaudeville
theaters of the largest Eastern cities.
A gentleman who dropped Into the Fred
ericksburg one evening last week was
surprised to find himself comfortably seat
ed dv a courteous attendant, and given
a printed programme which contained a
list of all the numbers of the evening.
"Why," said he, "I came- to Portland
by way of Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco, apd In both of these cities I paid
30 cents to see no bettor performance
than I am accorded the privilege of see
ing In Portland for nothing." The Fred
ericksburg this week has some of the
strongest attractions ever billed at this
popular house. The cafe conducted In
connection with this popular concern is
the best managed perhaps of any cafe
of the country. Refreshments of all kinds
are served by attentive waiters at a
charge not exceeding that made by any
of the popular-priced restaurants of the
first order in the city.

WEALTH IN 'A WINDOW
TWEXTX-OXE THOUSAND DOLLARS
IN SOLD NUGGETS.
Taken From the Helena Mlae, In
Oregon Exhibited at Foartk and
"Washington Streets.
A pan of gold nuggets valqed at $21,000
attracted tb attention of thousands of
people at the corner of Fourth and Wash
ington streets. This precious metal did
not come from Klondike or Cape Nome,
but was taken out of the Helena, mine.
in the Bohemia district, situated about
140 miles, from Portland. The mine Is
owned by Jennings Bros. & Bruneau, and
the amount mentioned is the result of an
IS days' run with, a five-stamp milL This
splendid result is all the more remarkable -
when It is known that the gold was ex
tracted from ore taken out In develop
ment work, drifting and raising. The
owners will add Immediately five more
irtamps. and with the increased facilities
for handling ore this property will un
doubtedly provt an Immense dividend
payer. Enough ore has already been
blocked out to run 10 stamps for several
years. Jennings Bros. t Bruneau bavo
owned this property since 1S9S, and pay
ore was struck a few feet beneath, the
surface, which, steadily increases In value
the further development advances.
Helena. No. 2 Is the western extension
of the Helena, and is also owned by Jen
nings Bros. : Bruneau. The Helena
vein has been traced through No. 2, and
It has all of the earmarks of developing
Into a first-class property. Three tun
nels have been started In Helena No. 3,
with pay ore m every tunnel. A large
force of miners has been engaged to
work these tunnels, and excellent results
are confidently expected as development
proceeds.
The Bohemia, district Is located In Lane
and Douglas Counties, 35 miles from Cot
tage Grove, the stage covering the dis
tance from the latter point in 13 hours'
time. Mining men hencvo that this dis
trict will prove to be one of the greatest
gold-producers in the West. Already
nine or ten paying" properties are being
worked, and about S00 locations made.
Atwut 500 people are now located In the
district, with crowded stages arriving
daily. Great trouble has been experienced
In securing experienced miners, and the
Jennings brothers were compelled to ad
vertise for men in California papers. A
number of rich strikes have been made
recently.
Mr. Bley, owner of the Mayflower, se
cured a number of fine specimens. This
property is one and one-half miles east
of the Helena. Frank Jordan, of Cottage
Grove, struck a rich lead a couple of
weeks ago. Mr. Lovelace, of Minneapo
lis, was equally fortunate, and owns a
fine piece of property. Mr. Pugfa also
struck some high-grade ore. The Lake
mines, in which E. S. Adams, of this city.
Is interested, shows up so well that a
smelter will be erected to treat tho ore.
which carries a large percentage of lead
and copper. The Music mine has 10
stamps running day and night, and ships
from 10 to 12 tons of concentrates dally.
Some fine ore has also been uncovered in
tho Golden Slippers. On Steamboat
Creek, about 24 mKes east ef the Helena,
(tho center of the mining district), placer
mining la being conducted with success,
and a number of fine claims are being
worked. About ICO other claims have
been successfully worked In this district,
too numerous to mention individually.
With gold in abundance within a day's
journey from Portland, it will be well for
people Intending to emtgrate to Cape
Nome and other points in Alaska to first
look over the rapidly developing gold
fields of Oregon, especially the Bohemia
district.
IN THE SEVERAL COURTS.
Argument In n. Building; & LpanAB
aoclution Salt.
In tho suit of the Paclfio States .Build
ing & Loan Association against Mary
Peterson, to foreclose a mortgage. Judge
Stott and William Reld. defendant's at
torneys, argued a demurrer to the com
plaint in Judge Cleland's court yesterday,
contending that the contract Is uncon
scionable and usurious. Counsel arguea
that many courts' have declared such con
tracts void and restricted the loan com
pany to principal and legal Interest.
The defendant borrowed $SO0, and, ac
cording to tho statement of Mr. Reld, has
paid the full principal and 12 per cent In
terest, and the company still demands
$320 more. Referring to the statute ex
empting these associations from the usury
law. Judge Stott said the Legislature nad
no right to pass such a special law; It
was giving a foreign corporation privi
leges which our own individual citizens
do not possess. "There are always mem
bers of the Legislature," he argued, "who
are willing for a consideration to work
such a bill through, but most of the mem
bers doubtless did not understand what it
'meant, and what Its consequences would
be."
He had talked with several of them,
and they stated they had no intention ot
passing a law that would give a foreign
or any corporation the .privilege of mak
ing contracts on such unconscionable
terms.
For the plaintiff, G. W. Allen, as at
torney, argued that the contract Is valid
under the California law; the corpora
tion Is a California Institution, and the
contract was made in San Francisco. He
asserted also that the contract is good
under the Oregon statute. As a vital
point, he contended that the case can
not be disposed of on demurrer, but must
be deposed of on the testimony. If It
should be found from the evidence sub
mitted that the contract is unconscionable,
then the court can act, but the court can
not determine merely from the. papers
filed In the case that the contract Is usur
ious. Mr. Allen further argued that tho
plaintiff is a .co-operative concern, in
which defendant is mutually Interested.
Divorce Suits.
Judge Cleland granted Georgo H. Mar
shall a divorce from Minnie Marshall, be
cause of desertion. The plaintiff testified
that his wife left here in 1897 with Frank
Davis, a candy peddler, and went to Se
attle. Marshall Is a waiter by occupa
tion. He stated that he provided well for
the defendant while they lived together.
!The suit of Charles H. Chambreau
against Catherine E. Chambreau for a
dissolution of the matrimonial bonds was
dismissed on motion of J. J. Johnson,
plaintiff's attorney, and the papers were
withdrawn. Counsel stated no reason for
the step.
An order of default was entered In the
suit of Catherine Olds vs. John W. Olds.
In the suit of Elizabeth Lyman Conlon
ve. Francis Conlon, the defendant has
filed a demurrer to the complaint, on the
ground that It does not state a cause
of action.
An order of publication of summons was
entered in the case of Antoinette W.
Strahan vs. Lola Straban. because the de
fendant cannot be personally served. The
plaintiff complains that he deserted her
in 1S?4 and has not elnce provided for her
support, and says he drank; also that
within the past few weeks he caused her
much mental suffering by threatening to
take the children from her.

OFFICIALS ARE PLEASED.
Railroad People Glad Tliat Quaran
tine Has Been Removed.
Southern Pacific officials in Portland
were greatly relieved yesterday when
they received notice that the quarantine
at tne California, state line had been
raised. Ever since the United States of
ficer ordered all passengers leaving San
Francisco to have health certificates, on
pain of being stopped at the state line,
the Southern Pacific people have been in
trouble, or rather expecting trouble.
The order was given by Uncle Sam that
no tickets be sold unless the applicant
was armed with a health certificate. This
the railroad people refused to do. They
continued to sell tickets to all applicants,
but Informed them that, if they had no
certificates from the health department,
the? were liable to be stopped at the state
line.
The work of shutting California pas

Not
always
better
in
Glasses do not always make the
wearer see better. That Is not the
Object. The principal use of glasses
Is to take off the strain and over
work. It is to make the eyes see
EASIER. In nearly all cases tho
eyes are bound to see well anyway.
It is a. law of Nature for every per
son to- see as well aft he possibly
can. But in many cases it means
effort, and eyestrain and headache.
Glasses do not necessarily Improve
vision, but preserve the eyes.
My specialty is correctly fitted
glasses.
