Because she had quarreled with her
husband andwas unable ,to effect a
reconciliation. Mrs- I Wiles, aged 19
years, attempted to commit suicide by
shooting at S:3 o'clock last night, at East

Wiles, who was sitting in the house,
heard the shot and hip wife's scream, and
ran outside. The woman had not fallen,
but was walking toward the house, and
her husband helped her to the bedroom,
where she lay down upon the bed. Their

Connections for Ocean Beaches.
It's not many years ago since the silence
of the mighty Columbia was only broken
save by Its own dashlngs and the noise
made by the gentle touch of the dusky red
man as he paddled his canoe over the
waters. The Indian canoe is now rele
gated to the historical museum and to the
Memaloose Uahce of the noble red man,
and In its stead the finest and largest ves
sels from all parts of the globe now ply
upon Its waters. These are great changes,
but the mighty Columbia in all Its gran
deur remains as beautiful as then. You
should not miss seeing It and all the va
rious points of Interest along Its banks,
which you can do by taking steamer Lur
llne, which stops at all these" historic
points daily, except Sunday, at A. M.,
from Taylor-street dock.
Value of Working Blood.
Andrew Carnegie.
We are liable to forget how llttlo of
the original strain of an old family re
mains in after days. We glance over
the record of the Cecils, for Instance,
to find that the present marquis has
less than one four-thousandth part of
the Cecil blood; a dozen marriages
have each reduced it one-half, and
the recent restoration of the family
to its pristine greatness in the person
of the late Prime Minister, and in his
son, tne brilliant young parliamentarian,
of whom great things are predicted al
ready. Is to be credited equally to the
recent Infusion into the Cecil family
of the entirely new blood of two suc
cessive brides, daughters of common
ers who mado their own way in the
world. One was the mother of the late
statesman, the other his wife and the
mother of his sons.
Rich red blood naturally results from
taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. It tones the
whole system.
