GOLD WITHOUT LIMIT.
Arizona Prospector Says He Fonnd It
nnd Starts Stampede.
EX. PASO, Feb. 6. Edward M. Sturges,
a prospector from a mining district in
Mexico, near Douglas, Ariz, reports a
tremendous gold strike In the Terres
Mountain1, about 40 miles from Cos.
terminus of the Nacozarl Railroad.
Sturges Is here and claims to have taken
out $130,000 gold in the last six weeks.
His outfit only worked the very richest
of the deposits by the old system of rob
bing the veins. He says the vein can be
traced through three hills. Samples of ore
ore said to run as high as 3600 ounces of
gold to the ton. worth $72,000.
There is great excitement at Douglas
and a stampede has begun to the vicinity
of the strike.
class, bade everyone a graceful and cor
dial welcome, to Which Ralph Holman. of
the February class, responded. Between
the acts Miss Lillian Erown played "Bar
carolle Mllltalre" In excellent style, gra
ciously responding to an enthusiastic en
core. In the play, which was very amusing, an
entire household, including two guests,
were kept In a continual state of confu
sion over Aunt Rebecca's cats, and In a
state to all appearances bordering on
lunacy over the mistaken Identity of the
two guests, one of whom Is a girl with a
school nickname of "Bobs."
Philip Roysar, a manly young yachts
man, was Jauntily played by Arthur Ro
senfeld, and the part of Robert Brown.
a. law clerk, was cleverly dono by Oliver
Walker. Nathan Blackburn, as Jenkins,
the butler, did some clever acting, aided
by an extremely funny make-up.
The feminine characters were played by
Miss Grace Carter, Miss Marie La Barre,
Miss Gertrude Moldenhauer and Miss
Edna Church.
Miss Rebecca Luke, a maiden lady and
an enthusiast for cats, was exceedingly
well played by Miss La Barre. and her
Mrs. Jones complained that in doing so
Mrs. Snider had assaulted her. The de
fendant denied this when ehe appeared
for trial, but as the prosecuting witness
was .not present the trial was postponed.
The mother tells a very different story of
the trouble than was given by the prose
cuting witness.
"It was my child," said she, "and I only
went and took It as I had a right to do.
I did not beat Mrs. Jones or lay my
hands on her." When asked why she did
not want the baby where it was she said:
"When my husband and I separated, wo
agreed to leave the baby with another
family. Without consulting me he took
It to that place and for some time I
did not know where Jt was."

HIGH SCHOOL AMATEURS STAGE A CLEVER FARCE
31 L'CH DIRT WILL BE NEEDED. FOR
FILLING PURPOSES.
All Lines of OreKon Water Porrcr
Railway Company Will Have
Access to Water Front.
Work Is progressing steadily at the long
dock of the Oregon Water Power & Rail
way Company, south of Madison bridge.
This dock Is wide enough to permit three
tracks to be laid along the top. and Is the
water side, or bulwark, of the big fill
which Is soon to be made between It and
the cast side of the terminal grounds.
The dock extends to within a short dis
tance of that of Inman. Poulsen & Co.'s
siwmlll. The three tracks that run out
on It converge1 from the freight dock, and
connect with the main line on Hawthorne
avenue, and also with the spur which ex
tends through the terminal grounds,
whioh will extend along the east bank of
the Willamette River to Sellwood and to
Lents, there to connect with the Gresham
line. AH the branches of the system will
therefore have connection with the dock
lines.
At the west end of the freight dock,
piles hive been driven to provide an
approach from the bridge for conven
ience of access. In the terminal grounds,
another spur will be extended south
ward to the west end of the power-house.
A fill Is being made through the low
ground for this. Work on the big fill
cannot be commenced until Stephens
Slough has been spanned by a trestle, and
the track extended southward up the
Willamette to where the dirt Is to be
had. While many hundreds of thousands
of cubic yards of dirt will be required
to fill up the Portland dock, the com
pany has plenty up ihe line and between
Sellwood and Lents.
The company has as yet given out no
Information as to tho locitlon of its car
shops and carbarn, and Sellwood people
are still very hopeful that these 1m
r.crtant nlants will finally be located on
tho river front near the foot of Spokane
avenue. When the Mirtln tract, at Mid
way, was purchased, it was supposed that
It might bo used for carshops. but It was
officially denied that such was the Inten
tion. Not less than 10 or 12 ncres will
b required for carshops for the 60 miles
of lines the company will scon have In
operation. Sellwood raised a bonus of
JiECO to be applied on the purchase of a
site at the foot of Spokane avenue. It
has been hinted that Lents might make
an offer of grounds for carshops, but It
his not yet done so.

DEATH OF 3IRS. 3IARGAKBT HALE.
Lived In Patton Home Wns a
Woman of Rcmarknble Talents.
Mrs. Margaret Hale, who made her
heme for many years In the Patton Home,
In Upper Alblna, died February 3, ana
the funeral was held from the home of
p. J. Mann. 411 Third street. February -
Mrs. Hale will bo greatly missed by the
friends of the Home, and especially at the
public functions held there. She was 91
years and 8 months old, was a remark
able woman and the wonder of all who
visited the Home and had the oppor-
tunlty of examining her fine needlework.
She wa3 never idle while she was able
to work, producing most artistic work in
the form of quilts. She pieced many beau
tiful quilts and tidies out of the hundreds
of scraps of silks and other pieces given
lier by friends. She could blend the col
ors on a background to perfection,
working out flowers of delicate lines with
remarkable precision In a way that would
have been creditable to any young wo
man. Her needlework was very carefully
dene, and It was alwiys the wender of all
who came to the Home.
At public receptions Mrs. Hale's quilts
and tidies were always shown by her with
great pride. Only a short time ago she
commenced' work on .pieces for a quilt,
and these remain unfinished. At the
Home she was known "as "grandma," and
her place, was -always the place of honor
at the table. Her death is regarded as
a great loss by the other Inmates. Mrs.
Hale was a highly educated woman, of
refined tastes. She lived at the Patton
Home for nine years. "We all loved her
nnd will miss her," said Mrs. E. M.
Pierce, the matron.

COFFEE'S PLACE.
A Tennessee Physician's Experience.
The man of medicine can tell many In
teresting tales when he has a mind to,
but the most Interesting of all Is when
he tells of the benefits to be had from
pure, scientific food and drink (such as
Postum Food Coffee) used in place of
ordinary coffee.
In an explicit letter from a physician
of Henderson's Cross Roads, Tenn., he
says: "I drank coffee until 1 was a physi
cal wreck suffering with constant and se
vere headaches, heartburn and extreme
nervousness. Finally I became a con
firmed dyspeptic and consequently weak
and Irritable, although I am by nature
very strong and cheerful. I lost about 23
pounds.
"Finally my nerves were' shattered to
such an extent that I would regularly
wako from sleep In a highly nervous and
excited condition. By day I suffered from
attacks of vertigo and palpitation of the
heart, then I began to believe It was the
work of coffee. The constant overstimu
lation of the cardiac ganglia of nerves
from coffee had produced exhaustion of
the governing apparatus of the heart.
The slightest exertion worried me almost
to collapse. My hair grew gray although
I was but 33.
"My knowledge as a physician told me
my condition was serious. I quit the use
of coffee and improved for a while, but
very slowly. Then my attention was
called to Postum. I got some, made It
right, and found It delicious.
"In a week I could eat as) heartily as
ever without the least distress to my
stomach or Injury to my nerves. I gained
flesh up to 1S2 pounds and the disordered
condition of the heart ceased. I am now
free from rheumatism which oppressed
me steadily while I was using coffee.
"Postum's discovery has been and will
contlneu to be a blessing. I hope Its use
will extend until coffee, one of the most
widespread and physically Injurious of. all
stimulants known to materia medlca,
shall be relegated to its proper place be
side morphine and cocaine." Name given
.upon application to Postum Co., Battle
Creek, Mich.
