CiTY NEWS IN BRIEF
Was Green goods, but Not jl Gold
Brick. A "green goods" man In the East
recently sent a package of seductive liter
ature to a resident of Portland. On re
ceiving a request for a sample of his
wares, he inclosed a $5 note. The prospec
tive victim, on receiving the ?5 note, Im
mediately turned It over, with all the let
ters and circulars of the green goods man,
to a United States official. In the hope
that a clew might be found which -would
lead to the arrest of the villain. The Gov
ernment official proceeded to test the
quality of the note by asking a banker to
give him change for it, which the banker
proceeded to do. The official then In
formed the banker that the note was a
forged and fraudulent one, but on careful
examination It proved to be a genuine
greenback, as good as wheat, and worth
its face in gold. This being the case,
there was nothing further to be done In
the matter, and the official pocketed the
change as his fee, and the green goods
man was out and injured $5. The moral in
this case, to which the attention of the
Intended -victim Is called, Is: "Always
look a gift horse in the mouth."
Holding Gospel Meetings. Mrs. Anna
J. Johnson, a revivalist, who Is .known as
the "Christ-healing" evangelist, is hold
ing a series of gospel meetings in a tent
on Thirteenth street, near Jefferson. Mrs.
Johnson's career has been more or less
remarkable. She formerly conducted a
prosperous business in Chicago, and, In
1S71. her fortune was swept away. In the
agony of despair she cried, "My God,
my God. why hast thou forsaken me?"
Almost instantly she had a vision, she
says, and a revelation from God. Since
that time she has been preaching the gos
pel and practicing divine healing. She
&ays she has healing powers and Is able
to cure the ills of those whose faith Is
great enough to accept the cure. These
healing meetings she holds during the
week. Last night Mrs. Johnson took tor
her theme, "The Church of Christ Tri
umphant." She read from the 11th chap
ter of Isaiah, wherein the prophecy of
Christ's peaceable kingdom Is made. She
compared the predictions to conditions ex
isting today. A small but earnest audi
ence was present.
Summer Ducks "Well Grown. The
young Summer ducks and mallards
hatched among the sloughs and bottom
lands along the Columbia are getting so
well grown and the date on which the
open season for shooting ducks has been
set so late September 1 that sportsmen
are fearing that the Summer or wood
ducks may all leave for the South before
the shooting begins. It Is the custom of
the Summer duck to leave for the South
as soon as the first rains set in. In order
to make things pleasant for them, and
Induce them to stay here till they can be
lawfully shot, sportsmen are beginning to
feed them. One who has preserves on Co
lumbia bottom has sent out five tons of
wheat, and another, who has large sport
ing grounds leased on Sauvie's Island has
sent down 10 Iocs of wheat. If the rains
come early and the ducks leave for the
South they will be In tfrlme condition for
the California sportsmen, but that will be
no consolation to the sportsmen here, who
would prefer to kill and eat the young,
fat. tender and juicy ducks themselves.
Tourists Eulogize the Columbia. It
is worth anyone's while to make a trip
to The Dalles on the Bailey Gatzert these
days to hear the remarks of the Eastern
tourists In regard to the scenery and the
weather and their wonderment as to how
such meals are furnished for 23 cents. The
tourists crowd the forward part of the
boat, so as not to lose sight of anything,
and continually consult the pretty and
convenient guide books furnished by the
steamboat company, checking off each
point of interest as It Is passed. By go
ing up In the morning and coming down
in -he afternoon the waterfalls, cliffs, old
Mount Hood and all the rest of the scen
ery Is viewed In the full light of the sun
and also In the shade, the effects being
very different, thus doubling the pleasure
of the trip. A number of the tourists who
made the trip Saturday were disappointed
because the boat did not shoot the rapids
coming down, not realizing that if she
had done so they would probably all have
been past praying for.

Yucca Plants is Bloom. Several speci
mens of the Yucaa plant are In bloom in
gardens around town, and make a grand
show with their waxen blossoms. The
largest and finest Is In the grounds of J.
A. Eell's residence at Twelfth and Colum
bia streets. The flower stalk is three feet
or more in length, and the scores of
branches are loaded with thousands of
blossoms. There are several species of
Yucca, one of which is called "Spanish
bayonet," from the shape of the leaves,
which give one an idea that the plant Is
some kind of a palm, but the Yucca be
longs to the Illy i-famlly. It is a native
of semi-tropical" America, but Is very
hardy, and does well here with but little
attention.
Shooting Grouse Out or Season.
Persons going to. the mountains for a
holiday are beginning to take their dogs
and guns along, and It is reported that
quite a number of young grouse have been
shot. It should be borne In mind that the
open season for grouse Is from October 1
to December 1. The open season for
pheasants begins and closes on the same
dates. It Is said that young grouse and
early coveys of pheasants are ripe and
ready for shooting, and probably many or
these precocious birds will never live to
see the beginning of the open season.
Canoe Trip on the Deschutes. Sev
eral Portlanders are making a canoe trip
on the upper waters of the Deschutes
River. In the party are Bert Mackay,
Roderick Macleay, P. B. Gifford and Dr.
George F. Wilson. The start Into the
mountains was made from Eugene on the
a wagon road southeast to Crescent Lake.
In the small lakes in that region the Port
landers expect to get some good fishing,
after which they will go by canoe down
the Deschutes to below Bend and cross
over to Belknap Springs, coming out by
way of Eugene.

The City & Suburban Railway Com

First and Grant streets out Front and
Corbett streets to Hamilton avenue. TJie
new rails are considerably heavier than
the old ones and the change and accom

on the road. The company will at once
begin grading an extension of Its Brook

BEAR KILLING MADE EASY
Mixture of Molnsuew and Whisky
Helps the Ax nnd the Gun.
Life in a logging camp is rather stren
uous, especially In the great fir forests
along the Columbia River, where many
of the trees were a hundred years old
when Columbus discovered America, and
where, occasionally, such trees are found
growing over the trunk of a prehistoric
cedar or the same or greater age. The
loggers, however, have lots of fun oc
casionally, and such fun as dwellers in
cities would give all their old clothes
to have a share in. Nels Thofshammer,
a big, double-fisted Norwegian, who used
J
to hunt bears In his own country, but wno
has for some time been working In a
logging camp on the Clatskanle, was in
the city yesterday and was telling of
the sport the men In the camp had with
a family of bears last week. The bears
had been causing trouble by eating 'the
tallow used to grease the "skids" forming
the roads over which the logs are hauled
to the river. They would lick off every
particle of the grease, and as soon as it
was renewed would lick it on! again. The
old bears had been eeen several times
and were husky, unamlable looking
brutes, and. none of the loggers cared to
go hunting for them.
Nels told the boys how they could
have some fun with the bears, and get
rid of them at the same time A large
tin pan was procured, Into which sev
eral gallons of molasses were placed,
and then half a gallon of strong whisky
was mixed with it. It had such a pleas
ant smell and taste something like
"peach and honey" that Nels had hard
work to keep the boys from drinking it,
but he finally got it sorely planted about
the center of the skid road, where the
bears were numerous. Early next morn
ing a party started out to see if the
bears had tackled the bait. They found
two old bears and two half-grown ones
reeling about the pan, which was empty
and licked as "clean as a whistle." The
youngsters were almost Insensible, but
could Just roll around and try to piay
with each other, while the old ones sat
on their haunches, gazing stupidly at the
gambols of the cubs. The men watched
them for some time, till they could stifle
their lauchter no longer, and then rushed
out on them. The cubs were dispatched
with a club, and never knew. what hurt
them. The old ones tried to climb a
tree,, and the way in which they stag
gered around and fell over backward
when they struck up against the tree
would have made a horse laugh. The
bears were not so accustomed to the
use of whisky as some loggers are, and
what they had taken had gone to their
heads and rendered them helpless. .Nels
brained the old female with his ax and
the male was shot by one of the boys.
The skins, after being soaked in the
river to wash away the molasses, were
hung up to dry, and any bears that here
after meddle with the skid roads in that
camp are bound td find their skins
"hung" on bush.
REMEDIES FOR PESKY FLIES
Latest Preparation Is Used on Ani
mals With a Sprnylngr Machine.
Everybody, especially bald-headed men,
bangtalled horses and bobtalled cows,
knows that flies are a plague and a pest.
The little wretches have a useful place
In the economy of Nature, but they neg
lect their legitimate business to go buzz
ing around and bothering and bedeviling
everybody and every animal, consequently
they are hated and despised of all na
tions. Fly traps of many kinds for their
destruction have been In use for ages,
but flies seem to have an Insane desire
to kill or drown themselves in anything
from the cream jug to the water bucket,
and even in biblical day the dead files
made the ointment of the apothecary stink
worse than was natural. Of late years
flypaper, both poisonous and sticky, has
been largely used, and has caused the
death of myriads of the pests, but with
out any perceptible effect on their num
bers. The fly has one advantage over
man In being born full-grown and ready
for business.
Within the past few years a new spe
cies of fly has been introduced here. It
is known as the Texas fly. It Is sup
posed that it arrived on cars In which
Texas cattle were transported. They are
a much greater pest than the old-fashioned
horsefly as their bite brings blood,
even through the thick hide of a horse or
a cow. They cause much loss to dairy
men by annoying cows, so that they
cannot eat half as much as thy should,
consequently there is a falling off in
the flow of milk, and less butter and
cheese. Some dairymen have tried to
overcome thl3 by blanketing their cows
with burlaps, others by keeping their
cows in a dark barn during the heat of
the day and feeding them only at night
and in the morning and evening.
Dealers in dairymen's supplies now keep
on hand fly-bounce and other liquid prep
arations for the protection of milch cows
and driving horses. These are not grate
ful to the olfactory nerves of the flies,
and when the cows or horses have been
brushed over with the preparations the
flies fly away. The stuff has to be re
newed every two or three days, and as
it costs about 51 25 per gallon, the ex
pense of keeping a herd of cows painted
with it is considerable. The stuff can
be most expeditiously applied with a
sprayer. Every family should have a
battery of sprayers for spraying cows,
fruit trees, hopvines and about every
thing else that grows on or out of the
earth, and the farmers should begin their
dally devotions with "Let us spray."

The services, under the charge of Bishop
Cranston, were opened by a hymn, a fa
vorite of Dr. Gue's. Dr. L. E. Rockwell
read a scriptural selection. After prayer
by Bishop Joyce, Bishop Cranston said:
"This great company Is significant of a
greater fact. The human heart remains
true to Itself. When a man, so well known
for Integrity, largeness of spirit, and un
bounded zeal, passes into the great be
yond, the many who have been benefited
by such a life assemble to express their
sympathy. This Is no chance gathering.
We are all partners In this sorrow and
all feel akin on occasions like these.
"I feel moved by the power of such a
life. There was never a truer or braver
heart than that which has ceased to beat.
Knowing a long time of impending death,
Dr. Gue never for a moment faltered in
his work. He went steadily onward,
cheerful, full of seal and unflagging Inter
est, ills courage was suoume ana ius
powers as a leader wonderful. It was
this remarkable spirit of enthusiasm and
optimism that led to his success."
Bishop Joyce also dwelt on the unusual
personality of the minister, saying in part:
"We are in the presence of a great sor
row. The shadows have fallen. Under
them the range of vision is not wide nor
the sight very plain. We wipe the tears
away and look again. The world is not
rich In such men as he was. Could I have
had my wish I should have said, 'Live,
live, live.' But the one mind, the mind
omnipotent, that planned and built the
universe, sees and can answer the ques
tion 'Why has our brother died?' It was
never InU'ndrd that the little space lying
on this side of the cradle, should be the
last of the masterfulness of a great life.
This life Is the drill ground, the place
character is built and mind unfolded. All
this means a journey in the end and when
the gates are pushed open there will come
the reward for all this labor and toll.
"Early in life, Dr. Gue awoke to the
fact that life was a mission. Life is not
a time to play, to loiter and spend Idly.
Our departed friend thought It all too
short for such levity as this, and lived
that thought through to the end. In this
man's record, the cheer with which he
did his work showed him to be thoroughly
in love with it. With him the Bible was
a message of good news. I have never
heard him express a word of doubt, fear
or depression. Ho preached the gospel of
good cheer. Another characteristic fact
in his life was that he never questioned
anything In the Bible. He never sowed
the seed of doubt In any Instance; there
fore, I SS not wonder at his success. His
presence was a magnetic one, inspiring
cheer and hope. I felt this the first time
I ever saw hl:n. It was but the outward
expression of a full, beautiful, Inner life."
Bishop Joycii spoke a few words of con
solation to tho members of the family.
He called attention to the wonderful
strength of the invalid wife in facing the
sudden death of her husband, and said
that she displayed great fortitude and
calmness.
Dr. G. C. Wilding, of New Jersey, then
reviewed the life and character of Dr.
Gue and his work in the Methodist church
in general.
Rev. P. A. Cool, of the First Methodist
Church of Spokane, paid a high tribute to
Dr. Gue's memory. He dwelt on the fam
ily life of the minister, saying that it was
an Inspiration to eco such a man in his
home relations. He then read the reso
lutions passed by the First Church of Spo
kane. The services closed with a few remarks
by Bishop Cranston and a" hymn by the
EPWORTH LEAGUE.

POKING FUN AT PORTLAND
But Then, Tacoma Has Little Elie
to Do These Day.
A Portlands who has returned from a
visit to Tacoma reports that the Ferry
Museum In the Courthouse there is vry
nearly, if not quite, as valuable, inter
esting ania Instructive as the Hawkins
Museum here. He looked through it with
much pVJi.Tire until he ran across a paint
ing of Mount Hood by J. E. Stuart, which
was a loan exhibit, and was, for sale at
5500. Some heartless and slanderous
wretch had affixed to the picture a pla
card or. which was written the following
lines:
The average Portlander. if sufficiently good,
Expects, when he dies, to go to Mount Hood:
But his hopes are In vain, for where he inus
go
They cannot maintain a mountain of snow.
Such prejudice, rancor and hate in pur
suing the Portlander beyond the limits
of this world could only be displayed by
a Tacoma poet. In reply to this dastardly
slander, it can only be said that it has
not been observed that there Is any ne
cessity for chaining up Tacoma people
in heaven to prevent xnem irom coming
j back.
OREGON SURE OF PRIZES
JUDGES SURPRISED AT THE EX
CELLEXCE OP THE EXHIBIT.
Commissioners Find It Dlfflcult to
Convince Visitors That the Big
Cherries Are Xot Plums.
The preliminary work for awards at the
Buffalo Exposition began last Tuesday,
and exhibitors are awaiting the announce
ments. Oregon stands a good show to
receive a liberal share of the prizes. The
Judges express great surprise at the ex
cellent showing made by this state in all
departments. Superintendent Dosch has
worked early and late for several weeks
getting every exhibit, properly labeled.
This meant the placing of several thou
sand labels In the Agricultural. Horticul
tural, Mining, Forestry and Educational
buildings. Writing from Buffalo. Mrs.
Edyth Tozler Weatherrcd, one of the Ore
gon Commissioners, says:
"Our cherries are being admired, and
It is dlfflcult to convince some that they
are cherries and not plums. The fact
that this fruit was shipped 3S0O miles and
had been 13 days off the trees created
much Interest, especially when they were
still in good condition.
"The Dolly Varden and Rainbow trout
continue to be coveted by sportsmen. Fish
Commissioner Van Dusen and the Rod and
Gun Club have added a pleasing exhibit
to the Oregon display.
"Many people are in position to assist
the state by forwarding products that
compliment the state, even though the
producer or manufacturer has no need of
advertising his goods for personal or com
mercial advantage. Too often those able
to add to a general exhibit of the state's
resources stop and consider individual In
terests. In sending .fruits, the packers
should exercise great care and judgment;
use an abundance of tissue paper and be
ware of bruised, fruits. Cherries and oth
er perishable fruits should be packed only
two layers deep, with oil paper between
the layers. Otherwise they will heat and
spoil.
"A few days ago the Oregon people were
entertained at our department In the Hor
ticultural building by Professor Van De
man, superintendent of the fruit and floral
exhibits. We had mo3t delicious pineap
ples from Florida, an extra fine variety;
cocoanuts from Jamaica, grape Juice from
New York, and apples from Illinois. The
Oregon people have received many cour
tesies from other states. Many states
have an allowance to be used as an en
tertainment fund, the practical citizens
realizing that friendly social relations go
a long way toward leaving favorable im
pressions of a state long after the size
of potatoes, trees and other products has
been forgotten.
"Quite a number of visitors from Ore
gon have registered at headquarters this
week, each one being well pleased with
the showing of our exhibits. No person
can give our display a moment's consid
eration without feeling proud of his own
state as compared with that of others.
This time Oregon could have made a
much grander display on a larger appro
priation, yet the one collected and In
stalled is deserving of much credit.
"The Pan-American Exposition in a
thunder storm Is not a lovable sight. The
Oregonlans who witnessed such a storm a
few nights ago hardly appreciated It until
all danger had passed. Streaks of light
ning came straight down like heated iron
being passed from the heavens, nnd the
thunder was so loud that one could not
hear another speaking three feet away.
At the Temple of Music a very crowded
house was listening to an organ recital
when the storm began. At the first loud
burst of thunder the electric lights went
out, and with the forces of nature light
ing the building, with tremendous roar,
there was a shriek and In a moment It
seemed that the mass of people were on
the verge of a panic. The organist start
ed to play "Nearer My God to Thee." the
choir began singing, here and there over
the house the audience picked up a line,
and In a few moments several hundred
voices could be heard above the roar of
the storm."
A Doy'8 Important Part In the Strike.
Reading. Pa. A 16-year-old Polish boy.
Peter Zawldski by name, is a most im
portant factor in the ironworkers' strike
now In progress. He is the interpreter
for the foreign-tongued strikers of the
speeches and orders of the American or
ganizers and leaders, and by his skilirul
performance of this difficult duty has done
more than any other one person to make
the strike a success. In former strikes the
failure of the foreign workmen to under
stand the plans and orders of the lead
ers has been a fatal source of weakness.
At the great mass meetings, where the
union officers instruct and encourage the
men, Zawldski sits on the platform and
listens intently to the speeches. AVhen the
speaker finishes the lad arises and re
peats the address In the Polish language,
almost word for word. Zawldski is ambi
tious to obtain a college education, and
the strikers assert that when they return
to work they will raise a fund to pay for
his education.

HAIR NATURALLY ABUNDANT.
When It I Free of Dandruff. It
Grown Luxuriantly.
Hair preparations and dandruff cures,
as a -ule, are -Mckyi or Irritating affairs
that do no earthly good. Hair, when not
diseased grows naturally luxuriantly.
Dandruff is the cause of nine-tenths oC
all hair trouble, and dandruff Is caused by
a gorm. The only way to cure dandruff
is to kill the germ: and. so far, the only
hair preparation that will positively de
stroy that germ Is Newbro's Herplclde
absolutely harmless, free from grease,
sediment, dye matter or dangerous drugs.
It alleys Itchl.ig Instantly: makes hair
glossy and soft as silk. "Destroy the
cause you remove the effect" dandruft.
