TUESDAY JUKE 10, 1902: WILL MEET TODAY Red Fez Seen Everywhere in San Francisco.- OREGON'S FINE HEADQUARTERS Souvenirs to Be Presented to Visitors Portland Will Try to Secure the Imperial Council , ' m in 1005. .sl', SAN FRANCISCO. June E. (Special cor respondence.) At the present moment here public attention is monopolized by the approaching conclave of tbe Mystic Shrlners which will begin tomorrow evening with a great street parade, the preparations for which are now being carried on on a most lavish scale. The city is In gala attire, and decorations consisting of long banners and. innumera ble flags are gaily floating to the breeze, while the principal buildings along the line of march are gaily decked with the brilliant colors emblematic of the differ ent orders that aro to convene here. Market street from the ferry building i way put to the St. Nicholas Hotel has been strung across with myriads of electric lights, gracefully arranged in all sorts of appropriate designs. Especially ornato are the electrical displays at the intersections ot Third, Kearny and Geary streets, where suspended between the lofty buildings of the Chronicle, Call and Examiner are festoons, of grace ful designs of sparkling, twinkling lights. Montgomery street has also received its due sharo of attention and is smartly brightened up with -colors, lights and a tremendous display of bunting. Quite in keeping and fully equal to all this elaborate display are the spacious parjors in the Lick House that have been prepared for the reception of the Oregon Shrlners and their friend's, through the efforts of Captain J. A. Brown, of Al Kader Temple, A. A. O. N. M. S., who has been here for the past three weeks working early and late, with, the result that his labors have been crowned with unbounded success, which reflects credit upon himself, the order he represents and on the glorious state "where rolls the Oregon." The four large Teceptlon-rooms are hung with banners and emblems of the Temple, and beautiful American flags, ar ranged wherever opportunity offers, while suspended about the side walls and en twining the electroliers are groat 'gar lands of a-eal Oregon wild grape. For the convenience of the visitors a file of the Daily Oregonian has a prominent place, while the advantages of a writing and telephone department are on the spot. The parlors devoted to the ladles are filled with " sweet-scented flowers and profusions of evergreens, ana in one cor ner is a new upright piano and player attachment. In an adjoining apartment,' hospitalities which the inner man does not shun are dispensed from a most in viting looking board. Captain Brown has only been remiss in one thing, and that is he has forgotten to put An a pint pong table for the ladles. Already the callers have commenced to arrive and the two registers are filling up fast John Dukehart is here and Is as sisting Captain Brown in receiving the Mtors. The-souvenirs to be presented are very handrome, and are in the form of a book let showing beautiful pictures of Port land and environments, surmounted by a fine photograph of Mount Hood. Besides these there are also some very attractive pamphlets giving one a most excellent idea of the State of Oregon, prefaced by remarks of Oregon's leading citizens. G.

Edward Goble. aged 21, a native of Kansas, nnd an employe af Oscar Mendcnhall. at Chinook, was 3-owned In Baker's "Bay, yesterday after noon. John Willis ms, tallyman on the Columbia River Packers' Association' rcoj-j, and Mr, GoWc -toad Just stepped into a srif!' sfcfff from the scow, and were t boarTfo'Vow to the shore, when the skiff tu prized and both occupants were thrown Into the iprtcr. Williams go: onto the Lettctn'of the skiff, and Goble was making for a ilne .on the scow. When within two f-ct of it he sank, and never came up, Williams drifted down to a trap 1'ad. where be hung and cried for help.

Discovery Made by Sumptcr Co- tractor "While Excnvntlng. SUMPTER, June 7. While excavating for a house to be erected here by J. W. Cowden for Bank Cashier Roy H. Miller, rich gravel was taken out, which pans high in coarse gold. This fact, with many others, proves conclusively that Sumpter is founded upon a great placer deposit. On the other side of Powder River are great placer grounds that were worked for years at profit, and where bedrock was never found. All about have been good beds of gravel, attracting the early placer work. It Is reasonable to expect the same under the bench land whero Sumpter is located, but the people do not appreciate the vastness of the gold de posit beneath their houses, till they are Informed by the constant discoveries in basement excavations or well-digging. Should the time ever come that Sumpter is not a city, it will certainly be a great placer mine, and if the rich discoveries continue to come to light some of the property-owners will eventually be tempt ed to do a little drift work under their lots. Xctt Badger Mine Ready to Start. F. W. Bradley, superintendent of the Bunker Hill & Sullivan Gold Mining Com pany, which owns the famous mine of that namo In the Coeur d'Alencs, and. also the Badger mine, in the Susanville district, C5 miles from. Sumpter, returned from a trip to the later yesterday. Mr. Bradley spent a week at the Badger ar ranging for the commencement of work there with the new mill plant, which, when Installed, will concentrate at the rate oalOO tons per day. The concentrat ing plant is expected to be operating by July L No effort will be made to save values on the plates. A large compressor Is being Installed for the operation of power drills. In aU respects the Badger will be equipped for the most efficient operation, and development will be pushed Into the earth with the purpose of dem onstrating how the veins hold out with depth. f RIr- Los: Drlv.e. EUGENE. June 9.-The Booth-Kelly Lumber Company reached the Coburg boom today with a large drive of logs which they brought down the Mohawk.

To lie at t,he point of death for months, to be told by the physician that there is no hope of recovery, and then to be restored to health and strength by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, was the experience of Mrs. W. H. .Wake, . of 84 Broad street, Rahway, N. J. To look at her now one would think it hardly possible that she ever had jo. serious illness, peaking of it, she says: "About three years ago I was in a condition generally known as run-down. I wa3 miserable Indeed; lifeless and lan guid. I had no strength at all, all de sire for food had left me. I was terribly nervous, and could not sleep. What was worse, I did not Improve, and my weight went down from 135 pounds to 98. I was under the care of a. physician for 13 months, but still I grew worse. He said my blcod had almost turned to water. I waa so weak that I was obliged to lie down all the time; if I tried to stand or even to sit up, I would faint away "Finally the doctor told me that un less I began to get better within two weeks I was doomed to quick consump tion. Then I gave up all hope. "But about this time a friend, who knew something of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, advised me to try them. I did so, and, after taking the third box, I began to feel better. I continued using them faithfully until I was cured. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People are a wonderful rem edy for persons afflicted as I was, and I shall always recommend them." The disease from which Mrs. Wake suffered was aeneraia. It is character ized by a pallid complexion, pale lips, dull eyes, tongue and gums bloodless; shortened breath on slight exertion such as going upstairs; palpitation of the heart, feeling of Impending death, weakness. loss of appetite and ambition; irregularity and pain In the natural functions of women. The one remedy that has proved it self a specific for aenemla is Dr. Will iams Pink Pills for Pale People.
