W. II. Stewart, pioneer resident, ex
postmaster, owner of the Townsite Ho
tel and grocery at Lewiston Junction, in
Western Whitman County, across Snake
River from Riparia, visited Colfax to
day, en route to Spokane, and gave the
following interview regarding Post
master William Hobson, his son-in-law,
now under arrest at The Dalles, Or.,
charged with defrauding the Govern
ment: -
"About January 1, Hobson was ap
pointed postmaster and In March was
checked 2200 short by Inspector Ful
lenwider, having never remitted money
order receipts which reached this
amount. He had deposited part of the
money with the Bank of Starbuck and.
with aid of friends, made the amount
good and promises to be 'straight.
"Hobson had charge of my grocery
store and was receiving a salary for
his services. Last week he left the
postoffice and grocery store without
notice. Mrs. Hobson, Charles War
mouth and his wife left at the same
time. Hobson went to Lewiston and
cashed about $400 worth of my grocery
checks. I find unpaid bills at Colfax,
Walla Walla and Spokane, which I am
paying and which will reach over
S5000. The postoffice shortage
checked so far by Inspector Riddlford,
of Spokane, who arrested Hobson at
The Dalles, is $208. Warmouth reached
Colfax today, trying to get me to com
promise with Hobson. which I refuse
to do, as I wish the Government to
handle him.
"C. E. Ray and T. as bondsmen, have
made the shortage good. Hobson will
no doubt be tried In the Spokane Fed
eral Court and this punishment with
out my charges may be enough."

FAIR WEATHER IN SIGHT
OFFICIAL FORECAST PREDICTS
BASEBALL CHAXCE TODAY.
Drizzle Rain Continues to Fall Over
Large Area of Pacific North
west River Falls.
Fair weather is in sight for Portland
and vicinity. The official forecast for
the district is for showers' today, fol
lowed by fair and warmer weather. The
barometer has risen during the past 24
hours, and temperatures will be higher.
Cooler weather during the past 48 hours
has caused the river to fall slightly. At
Portland the Wilamette fell .3 of a foot,
the reading yesterday being 16.2 feet.
The Snake River is falling at Lewiston
and the Columbia is slowly receding at
all points. A few days' warm weather,
however, will start things moving on both
the Snake and Upper Columbia.
While Portland again enjoyed a driz
zling rainfall yesterday, much of the same
condition prevailed over the major por
tion of the entire State of Oregon. Light
rain also Is reported to have fallen in
Southern Idaho, Northern Nevada and
Northern Utah. Across the Cascades and
over in Northeastern Washington and in
Southeastern Idaho the temperature has
fallen, while in the Interior of Northern
California It reported slightly warmer.

has promised showers for this district
this morning, to be followed by fair
weather during the afternoon, at least
west of the Cascades. It is to be warmer
In the interior of Western Oregon and

GILLIAM WILL HAVE BIG CROP
Generous Rainfalls Improving Pros
pects Fully 100 Per Cent.
CONDON, Or., May 4. (Special.) Pros
pects for a record grain crop in Gilliam
County this year, already promising, were
improved 100 per cent by the generous
rain which visited this section of the
state yesterday. The rainfall came just
at the opportune time to prove of in
calculable benefit to the Spring-sown
grain, many of the big iwheatgrowers hav
ing just finished- planting. Fall-sown
grain, of which the acreage this year is
not up to average because of the back
ward season, was beginning to feel the
need of rain and was also benefited.
The ground is now thoroughly supplied
with moisture, more so than for 10 years,
and with the usual June rains, which sel
dom fail, only an unexpected calamity can
defeat the harvesting of a record-breaking
grain crop here this year. Some
farmers are optimistic enough to declare
that the June rains can be dispensed with,
by reason of the abundance of moisture
now in the ground, without entailing any
danger to the crop. Tbrougout the county
grain of all kinds is farther advanced now
than it was in June last year. This means
that the farmers will begin harvesting
about July 4.

PALE
Thin, Weak
Cause a
At no time in her life does a woman
stand in greater need of pure red blood,
and the strength which It alone can
give her, than when she is developing
into womanhood. It is then that any
inherited tendency to anaemia, chlorosis
or green sickness, needs only the slight
est encouragement to rapidly develop.
This it too often receives for not all
girls can take the proper care of their
health. Many are confined within
doors, are overworked, do not have
enough nourishing food, and are de
pressed by worry and cares. All of
these conditions quickly impoverish the
blood and are among the most common
exciting causes of sickness in growing
girls.
If at any time during her develop
ment a girl finds that her strength is
failing and she is becoming pale and
nervous, has no ambition and is lan
guid, it is a certain sign that her blood
is failing to meet the demands made
upon it. because it is impure and thin.
To Insure perfect development and
health, steps must be taken at once to
strengthen the system by building up
and purifying the blood. Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills do this so well and have
cured so many cases of anaemia and
chlorosis that they may Justly be called
a specific for these oommon diseases of
girlhood.
