Freight on Aragonia Is Worth
Nearly $500,000.
LARGE CASSIA SHIPMENT
Duty Paid Hero Will Exceed $60,
000 Many Firecrackers for
Eastern Cities Gunnies,
Jute and General Cargo.
While less fluty will be paid in the City
of Portland on the inward cargo of the
steamer Aragonia, the value of the Im
ports is far greater than that of the
steamer Arabia. A conservative estimate
of the value of the carfro on board the
Aragonia is about H50,00a Firecrackers,
cassia, gunnies and Jute form the prin
cipal part of the cargo. Firecrackers
and gunnies pay duty, while cassia and
Jute are admitted free.
Upwards of $20,000 In duties will be
paid In this city on the firecrackers
brought over by the Aragonia. Of the
Fourth of July explosions there are 8126
cases. The major portion of them are
for Eastern cities. Duty, however, will
be paid here. The manifest shows 1560
"bales of gunnies, on which there is a duty
of $2S a bale. This will increase the
amount of local fluty paid by J34.860.
For the penitentiary at Walla Walla
are 2500 bales of Jute. The entire con
signment will be cleared from this port.
Other valuable cargo consists of tin,
matting, porcelain and camphor.
When nine days out from Yokohama
the Aragonia was boarded by a heavy
sea, which carried, away a portion of
her taffrall and her auxiliary steering
gear. Her engine-room and a number of
staterooms were flooded. The lights went
out, and the Chinese crew caused consid
erable trouble. The vegetable locker was
carried away.

ASTORIA MUST CONSENT
Portland Hesitates to Extend Invi
tation to Mr. Fairbanks.
Until the Astoria Chamber of Commerce
communicates Its -wishes as to Portland
participating in the entertainment of Vice-
President Fairbanks, the Portland Com
mercial Club will take no steps in that
direction. The Vloe-Presldent has ac
cepted an :lnvttatlon from the business
men of Astoria to be their guest on the
occasion of his vlait to the Coast to at.
tend the National convention of the Chris
tian Endeavor Society at Seatttle.
Tom Richardson, manager of tha Com
mercial Club, said yesterday that though
Portland woujd like to entertain Mr. Fair
banks on his way to and from Astoria, It
would depend entirely upon the wishes of
the Astoria people. He added that
Portland has no desire to interfere or
"butt in" when sister cities have under
taken to entertain prominent people.
To extend an invitation at this time to
Mr. Fairbanks without first obtaining
from Astoria an expression of their
wishes would be, he Bald, unfair to a
neighbor. '

Not Bear Tales.
SPRINGFIELD, Mo., April 17. The

bers, was suspended by the faculty to
day because they refused to apologise
for a set of resolutions drawn up last

The freshman class of 87 students has

a quantity of Ice cream Intended for a
seniors' reception. A junior charged
with being the leader of the raiders
refused to divulge the names of the
others and was ordered home when the
olass intervened.

SPLENDID APRIL TONIC.
This is known as "Blood-Cleaning
Time," especially among the
older folks, who always take
something during this month to
clean tne blood of Impurities and
build it up.
The following is the recipe aa
given by a well-known authority,
and anyone can prepare It at
borne:
Fluid Extract Dandelion one
half ounce. Compound Kargon
on ounce. Compound Syrup Sar
saparllla three ounces.
Get these simple Ingredients
from any good pharmacy and
mix by shaking well in a bottle.
The dose is one teaapoonf ul after
meals and at bedtime.
Everybody should take some
thing to help the blood, which
becomes impoverished and al
most sour after the winter sea
son, especially those who are
subject to Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Kidney and Bladder trouble.
It is said that one week's use
of this mixture will clear the
skin of sores, pimples or boils.
This is sound, healthy advice,
which will be appreciated by
many readers.

NO SESSION UNTIL FRIDAY
Judge Wolverton Excuses Federal
Grand Jury Venire Until Then.
There will be no session of the new
Federal grand Jury until Friday morn
ing. Yesterday morning the 60 men
who had been summoned to appear at
10 o'clock, were. on hand, but owing to
the sessions of the Interstate Com
merce Commission, Judge Wolverton
excused the venire until Friday. After
the adjournment Judge Wolverton and
United States Attorney, W. C. Bristol,
were besieged by a number of the
Jurors summoned, who pleaded to be
excused from Jury duty. Sickness in
the family, business pressure and oth
er excuses were offered, with the re
sult that the following citizens who
had been summoned were excused:
J. W. Allen, Rlckreall; H. L. Bush,
Airlle; Herbert Bradley, Multnomah;
R. M. Alcorn, Pendleton; W. H. Com
mons, Scott's Mills; C. A. Bell, Hood
River, and Frank Cook, Astoria; J. A.
Griffin, Astoria; Q. Barker, Oak Creek;
George Hoffman, Portland; William
Ainslee, Salem, and F. W. Epplnger,
Baker City.
The postponement of convening the
grand Jury has greatly handicapped
the work of the United States District
Attorney's office, for on Friday the G.
I Chapman habeas corpus case will be
heard. Chapman is the bookkeeper
of the Barber Lumber Company, who
refused to produce the books of the
company before an Idaho Federal
grand Jury, when ordered to do so.
The case -will be heard before Judge
Gilbert, and Mr. Bristol will make the
argument for the Government. The
outcome of the Chapman case will be
watched with a great deal of interest
by the legal fraternity, not only of
Oregon, but of Idaho as well. Mr.
Bristol has had experience with Just
such another case, when a defendant,
Collins, who was before him, refused
to testify. He made Collins talk and
he is of the opinion that he will win
Friday's case for the Idaho Federal
authorities.

Architect F. B. Gibson was present and
offered some suggestions regarding a
plan of such a building as would be
needed for the lodges, library and the
Branch Y. M. C A., all of which will
have to be provided for in the combina
tion building. It wHl be essentially and
strictly a club building, and no space will
be reserved for stores, according to pres
ent plans. Mr.t Gibson suggested that the
basement be made the first floor, and that
it be built so that H would extend about
four feet above the ground, for the ad
mission of light. In this part of the
building could be placed the Y. M. C. A.
department, with its gymnasium and
reading room. Possibly also the branch
library, which now occupies a building on
Umatilla avenue, could also have its quar
ters in the basement. The lodge hall' and
banq-uet hall would be on the second floor.
There are several organizations needing
halls, either together or separately. At

lodge there is being considered, and a

Judge My
My Success
I do not wish people to judge my work
merely upon what I say about it. I want
them to note the evidences to prove my
statements correct. The proof of a physi
cian's ability is to be found in the results
he obtains, and though I am not at liberty
to supply individual names of patients as
references, the marks of superior skill and
service are so prominent and conspicuous
as to render my doing so unnecessary. Six
teen years of success and constant growth
of practice is certainly a practical demon
stration that argues the merit of my work.
Estimate for yourself my volume of prao
' tice as compared with the practice of other
Western specialists. Is there the slightest
probability that if unable to back up all my
claims, I would have won and retained the
foremost place among physicians treating
men f Could I fail to cure and yet succeed
as I have t Have you ever heard of promise ,
of mine remaining unfulfilled, or off one of
my patients being dissatisfied with the
treatment received! Consider these things
and then come and talk with me in regard
to your ease. I am always willing to wait
for my fee until a cure is effected.

NEW TORK, April 17. A fund of $100,

Society last night at its annual meeting
1h the Astor Gallery of the Waldorf-Astoria.
This amount, however, has not
been raised, and tne fate of the expedi
