Let ub first follow the fortunes of Hen
nepin. Brave and adventurous though he
undoubtedly was. he shrunk from under
taking this trip when rt was first pro
pofced to him. But after it was all over,
In writing about it he said; "Anybody but
me would have been -very much frightened
at the dangers of such a Journey." On
the last day of February. 1680, he and two
companions bade good-bye to their com
rades, entered their canoe ana started
down the river. Without mishap they
reached its point of junction with the
Mississippi, then turning northward they
paddled up over the previous course of
Joliet and Marquette as far as the mouth
of the Wisconsin River, above which they
entered an unexplored region. One day
tbo Dth or 12 of April while on land
cooking a turkey for dinner, they were
suddenly surrounded by a war party of
120 Sioux Indians. They were at once
captured and carried up the river by the
savages. For some time they were in
doubt as to the fate in store for them.
Earnest discussions on this subject were
held by the savages, some wishing to sac
rifice them, others speaking in their favor.
They passed through Lake Pepin, and 19
days after their capture landed near the
present site of St. Paul. Hennepin was
now adopted as a son by an Indian chief
and taken off to his village on the shore
of a small lake which is believed to have
been Mllle Lac, from which the short
Rum River flows into the Mississippi
This was the most northern point which
he reached.
Early in the Summer the Indians start
ed off on a grand buffalo hunt, and Hen
nepln went with them down the Rum
River to the Mississippi. Here, through
the intervention of a friendly chief, he
end one of his oompanons secured their
liberty. In a small canoe they went down
the river and soon reached the falls which
Hennepin named after his patron, St.
Anthony of Padua. He described the falls
as being then 40 or GO feet high, but great
changes have occurred in recent years, as
Is well known. After several months, dur
ing which they had many adventures, but
made no further discoveries, they made
their way to Green Bay. The following
Spring 16S1 Hennepin went by the lake
route to Montreal, where he was well re
ceived by Governor Frontenac He ap
pears to have had no further dealings
with La Salle, but after the death of the
latter published a revised account of his
own adventures, which was calculated to
rob the great explorer of some of tha
credit due him.
We now return to La Salle. On the day
after Hennepin started down the Illinois
River that is, on March L 16S0 La Salle
and five companions set out from Fort
Crevecoeur on the long and dreary journey
of about 1000 miles to Fort Frontenac, In
Canada. They proceeded up the river for
some distance with great difficulty on
nccount of the Ice. When a few miles
below the present site of Joliet they left
their canoes and struck across the coun
try on foot, wading through marshes and
inundated meadows, floundering over the
prairie deep in mud. until they reached
the mouth of the St. Joseph. Thence they
tramped across Southern Michigan, endur
ing great hardships from exposure to wet
and cold, and some danger from the In
dians. Reaching Lake Erie they made a
canoe in which they paddled to Niagara,
and thence made their way to Fort Front
enac, where they arrived on the Cth of
May. after "the most arduous Journey,"
says the chronicler, "ever made by
Frenchmen In America."
On August 10 La Salle left Fort Fronte
nac on his return with 24 men, and fol
lowed the northern route by way of the
Humber. Lake Slmcoe. the Severn and
Georgian Bay to MichilHmacklnac. Thence
he went down Lake Michigan, up the
St Joseph, across to the Kankakee and
down that to the Illinois, thus retracing
his route of the previous year. While ho
was on his journey a great Iroquois in
vasion occurred, and the result of it was
manifest when the Illinois village was
renched. Where the 460 lodges had stood
the year before none was left. The whole
was a scene of savage destruction and
desolation. Anxious about Tonty, La
SRlle went on down the river to its Junc
tion with tho Mississippi. He now for
the flrst time beheld the great river whicli
had played such an important part in
his hopes and plans. But he had no time
to explore it. Retracing his course, he
continued his search for Tonty, and fin
ally reached the St. Joseph again, but
had no word of the fate of his friend
nor was It until the following March that
he heard of his escape and safe arrival :

with which he endured the machinations

MRS. EDDY'S HEALTH.
Official Denial of Rumors and a
Warning? for the Investigators.
Boston Post, Aug. 10.
CONCORD. N. H. .Aug. 9. The Rev.
Mary Baker Eddy, the head of the Chris
tian Science church, today made a state
ment to the Post concerning the ava
lanche of stories which have been circu
lated of late, attributing to "the mother"
a lack of faith in the doctrines of Chris
tian Science. It has been further stated
that Mrs. Eddy Is suffering with cancer
and that she has the constant services of
an M. D. Among the 300,000 people con
stituting the membership of the Christian
Science church throughout the world
these statements caused a profound sen
sation. Until today Mrs. Eddy has not
made any public references to these
charges, but when the mission of the Post
man was made known Mrs. Eddy Im
mediately granted the request (for a per
sonal talk.
Mrs. Eddy Impresses one as singularly
graceful and winning In bearing. Her
figure Is tall, slender and flexible In
movement as a Delsarte disciple. Her
face is oval In shape, the features regu
lar, yet Indicative of strong character.
Her eyes are a luminous blue, a bright
contrast to the mass of .wavy white hair
that falls over her temples.
Mrs. Eddy Is a striking picture of
health In old age. Her step Is firm and
she walks with an easy grace and strong
ly conveys the Impression of health and
strength.
Taking a seat on the sofa and motion
ing the reporter to a chair near at hand,
she said: "Now I am ready to give you
any information that you think will be
of interest to the public.
"It Is with sadness that I have noted a
certain inclination to ascribe to irie a
condition that does not exlt "Were It
not I believe that reports wholly fal-e
have been scattered abroad concerning
my physical condition, and that these
falsehoods, coming to the ears of my
many friends, would cause them pain. I
would not feel that It were necessary
to utter publicly any denial.
"Is it not strange that some natures
are so constituted that they can return
evil for good? It has always been my
practice to return good for evil, and that
Is a good practice, do you not think so?"
she said with a smile that lighted her
features.
"You came here to ask me If I were
sick. I answer no, for when God heals
the sick or sinful they know the great
benefit mind has wrought
"There was once a time in my life wh-n
bodily ailments laid me low, but I have
learned that mind reconstructs the body
as nothing else can do.
"I claim nothing more than to be the
aiscovercr ana rounder or Christian Sci-
tunlty to print ln your paper personal
observations that will directly refute such
statements, founded in the brain of some
imaginative being, who. disregarding all
truth, all facts, gives to the world a lie
ln th shape of truth,
have I so thoroughly enjoyed the bless
ing of perfect health. I am an old lady."
she added more softly, and then, smil
ing, added: "That is, in years, but not
ln my own sight"
A few minutes later the entire house
hold assembled ln the hallway, and in
answer to questions put by the repre
sentative of the Post plainly and fully
told what they knew of the daily life of
the head of the Christian Science church.
All expressed amazement that for a mo
ment any one should think Mrs. Eddy in
ill-health, when each day she is seen out
driving about the streets of Concord ln
as she went to the upper story called
back: "I climb these stairs a ereat minv
j times each day. Do you not think that I
am very sprightly?" And then she disap-
pearea. leaving the Impression behind
that converse had been held with a being
far above the average of mortals.
For a number of weeks a rumor has
been current here to the effect that Mrs.
Mary Baker Eddy was affected with a
frightful disease- Many said that It was
cancer. Dispatches from this city have
appeared in many parts of the country,
stating that Mrs. Eddy was dying, and.
of course, such news was widely read.
Not until today has Mrs. Eddy made any
statement to the public concerning these
rumors, and her reply is most emphatic
It is generally becoming an accepted
fact among close observers that this city
has become the seat from which constant
statements damaging to Christlon Science
are sent out It would appear, say her
friends, as though those opposed to the
growth of the belief had taken up a
situation Tight in the heart of the- strong
hold of the Scientists, and were working
assiduously to accomplish harm.
Bulletins announcing the decadence of
Christian Sclen.ce have been, it Is said,
traced to one source, and It Is probable
that some action may be taken with a
view to ridding Concord, the Mecca of
the Scientists the world over, of this un
desirable clement of antagonism.

B. L. EDDY, JOIJfT REPRESENTATIVE FOR TILLAMOOK AND YAMHILL
COUNTIES.
B. L. Eddy, who will represent tho Joint district of Tillamook and Yamhill Counties ln
the next House, was born ln Washington County, Oregon. October 30. 18C5. At the close of
his work ln the public school he -was called upon to wrlie a "composition and chose as a
subject "The Electric Telegraph." Ho became fascinated with tho work, and decided to be
come an operator. This led to an early starting out Into the world. He soon found an op
portunity, and took to the dots and dashes like a duck to water. After being employed at
various places on the Pacific Coast for a fow years, he decided to learn shorthand, and
bought a book and mastered the subject. In 18S0 he became prlvata secretary to a di
vision superintendent on the Northern Pacific Railroad. After two or three years ln this line
he concluded to master bookkeeping, and found an opening In tho auditor's office of the
Oregon Pacific Railroad, then ln its palmy days. After becoming chief clerk in the trafflc de
partment of that company, he entered the office of the late S. O. Reed, the Portland capi
talist In 1801 he became secretary of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan Mining Company, which
Mr. Reed had organized. "When Mr. Reed sold his Interests In that corporation to Califor
nia and Eastern people, and tho management had passed into the hands of John Hays Ham
mond, the wel-known mining engineer, late of South Africa, the subject of this sketch went
with Mr. Hammond to California, where he had charge of the general office of thhe mining
company, and also acted as private secretary to Mr. Hammond for about one year. In 1891
he took up the study of law, and pursued the same during such leisure" as business permit
ted. In 1803 he returned to Oregon, and devoted his attention wholly to law. He spent two
or three years ln the law office of Milton W. Smith, at Portland, and attended the law school
of the University of Oregon; was admitted to tho bar ln 1804; located at Tillamook City, ln
Tillamook County, ln 1S90, where he has since diligently and successfully practiced his profes
sion. Mr. Eddy was married at Corvallls, Or., in 1888. and has a wife and three children.

weeks' vacation on the coast, going and
coming on their wheels, and taking their
outfits along. Each wheel therefore bore
from 30 to 40 pounds besides Its rider, and
yet good time was made each way. They
came back over the Coast Range to Sheri

where, to hear them tell It. "from a foot

Many hills were found too steep to ride
up, but none were considered too steep
to coast down, though no brakes were
used.
"It made us so mad when we had to
walk up a long hill." one of them said,
"that we rode down, regardless of con
sequences, and just let the wheels go."
They left yesterday afternoon for home,
expecting to wheel all the way. except

they had made the distance from Ocean

"Wyoming- Forest Fires.
SARATOGA, Wyo., Aug. 23. The forest
fires continue to burn In the mountains
between Battle Lake and Grand Encamp-
Why trifle with health
when the easiest and
sssresi help is the hest
known medicine in the
world ?
I Lydla E. PInkham's Vegetable Compound
is knovsn everywhere and
thousands of women have
been cured of serious kid
ney derangements by it
MrsB Pinkham's meth
ods have the endorse
ment of the mayor, the
postmaster and others of
her own cstyB
Her medicine has the
endorsement of an un
numbered multitude of
grateful women whose
letters are constantly
printed In this papee
Every woman should read
these letters
FJirsa Pinkham advises
suffering womew free of
charge Her address is
Lynn, fffiassa
ment, and those towns and the numerous
mining camps and sheep camp3 are
threatened with destruction.
The herders were forced to drive their
flocks high up in the mountains to get
feed, owing to tho scarcity of both feed
and water on the plains below. It is
feared that many of these herders have
been surrounded with their flocks by fires.
The timber Is as dry as tinder and burns
fiercely. Nothing can prevent the progress
of the flames except a heavy rain.
It Is estimated that the loss thus far,
exclusive of the millions of feet of fine
timber, will be over $200,000. Miners have
joined the forest rangers In the work of
fighting the fires. Their combined efforts,
however, seem to be of no avail.
A Double Trnclc Case.
CANTON, S. D.. Aug. 20. The State
Board of Railroad Commissioners, which
met hero today, began a case which will
have important bearing on whether or
not the various railroad companies hav
ing lines in tho state will be required
virtually to double-track their roads.
The hearing was granted ln accordance
with a netltlon of a number of farmers
who ask that the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul Railroad be compelled to con
struct a sidetrack midway between Can
ton and Harrlsburg. The track would
save them from hauling grain and mov
ing livestock a long way. The opponents
of the petition saj that If it is granted
similar applications will be made from
all parts of the state: that besides being
a great expense to the railroads. It would
Injure the towns, which would lose ship
ments of grain aggregating millions of
bushels each season. Railroads In other
states are interested In the outcome.
