(Special.) Midnight darkness settled on Walla Walla yesterday at 4 o'clock when the worst dust storm the city has ever known hit here with the hardest wind that has been recorded since 1SS3. Trees were split and broken down, windows blown In, and wires blown down. When the storm "as seen approach ing, everyone In town ran to the streets and to windows to view the magnifi cent spectacle. A few drops of ratn fell and then came a gale that blew 50 miles an hour. Darkness ensued, and the lights were switched on all over town. Chickens went to roost and for half an hour midnight reigned at mid-afternoon. lialn did not follow the storm, as 'was hoped, but the wind died down later In the evening, and the dust-covered city had to clean Itself aa best it -could with hose and hydrant. Wheat Is thought to be damaged about 10 per ent. as a result of the storm. HIGHER RATE IS SOUGHT Southern Pacific Would Advance Portlund-Snh Francisco Fare. SAX FRANCISCO. Aug. IS. Inter state Commerce Commissioner Lane will come to this city August 30 to be gin a hearing on the application of the Southern Pacific for relief from the law which forbids the charging of a higher rate for a short than a long haul, or a through rate greater than the total of the intermediate rates. The complaint of the railroad Is In connec tion with the operation of trains over the Siskiyou Mountains, the cost of which. It avers, is exceptionally high. For through rates, the Southern Pa olfic wants to treat its line between Sun Francisco and Portland as two sep arate and distinct roads, connecting at the summit, each entitled to charge the maximum for traveling on through trains, the maximum being higher for the passenger or freight shipment mov ing over the mountains than the sum of the local fares from Portland to the summit, and thence from the summit to San Francisco. , Rain Refreshes Hood River Country.

The rain settled the dust of the roads and travel through the different sections has been much more comfortable.. While the rain will not be of any particular benefit to the orchardlsts, because of J the fact the whole valley Is under Ir rigation ditches, the dust will be washed from trees beside the county highways and the orchards will be given a fresher appearance. The rain comes as a boon to the mountain climbers. The roads to Mount Hood will be made more passable and the atmosphere will be cleared. VOICE COMES IN CHURCH After Years of Silence, Planter Awes Friends by Singing: a Hymn. Charleston. S. C. Cor. New Tork World. Thomas Drayton Poore, of Oconee County, who gradually lost his voice and had not been able to utter an ar ticulate sound for three years, recov ered in an Instant, it is said, the full power of speech while hundreds looked on and prayed. Poore Is a planter, and he has been for many years a leading member of the Baptist Church In Westminster. In 1898 Mr. Poore began to "h troubled with nervous symptoms. They rapidlj- pro gressed, and In February of that year his voice began to fall. He had been a public speaker, and -for many years had been accustomed to sing In the churclhis tones being unusually strong and cPar. None of the physicians sum moned was able to stop the malady, which It was decided was due to a rare type of nervous indigestion. He bore his affliction with every show of pa tience, saying he felt sure his voice would be restored. Several weeks ago revival services were inaugurated in the Westminster Baptist Church under the leadership of a returned missionary, and soon the community was In the midst of an old fashioned "awakening." The revivalist requested those present to send to him, written out on slips of paper, the things they most urgently desired. Mr. Poore, who was present, wrote out a request that his voice be restored and passed it up to the pastor. At the same time he made known the substance of his message to those around him. and all Joined wit hthe minister In praylns in his behalf. Everything was still in the church when Planter Poore stood op. gave a shout of Joy and began to ;ng. The others In the church stared In wonder, then In awe. Then, with one accord, they rose and Joined Poore in singing "Nearer, My God, to Thee." I Ginger Drinker Sent to Jail.

Beauty m J First of all considerations in the selection of a piano should be its tonal quality that almost in describable characteristic that is sought by all piano manufacturers, and really attained by so few. q Second to tone only is durability, which quality -can only be insured by the use of materials of the highest order and the most sKilled worKmanship. In many pianos is found one of the attributes of piano perfection; in very few that happy combina tion of tone and structural quality which denotes the perfect instrument q Given a piano of perfect tone, of unquestioned superiority in its mechanism, its worKmanship, and builded of materials which are the best possi ble obtainable, then, and then only, should design of case, symmetry of architecture beauty of veneers and elegance of finish be taKen into con sideration. The Hardman Piano possesses every feature, every characteristic of the. perfect piano. Its tone is of that particular quality which delights the cultivated ear-limpid, resonant " and extremely sympathetic; its action, the result of many years of studious industry, is flexible and elastic in the extreme, while Hardman materials and worKmanship have long been one of the stan dards of excellence by which piano quality is mea sured. q The manufacturers of Hardman pianos, having' brought the character of their product to the high est standard, recently turned to the artistic in case construction. The result has placed before the lovers of high-class pianos the most beautiful de signs, the most daintily executed and finished cases in the richest woods that have ever been shown to a discriminating public. Beautiful mahoganies and superb Circassian Walnut cases, in both high polish and satin finishes, are being shown now on our floors, and are being enthusiastically admired. q Hardman pianos, considering their quality and great beauty, are priced more reasonably than you can realize. They are sold on easy payments when desired. 304 OAK STREET BETWEEN FIFTH AND SIXTH caught by neighbors and turned over and and to Motorcycle rairui.u... Rovle.

A physician, in London, Dr. William Martin Richards, has ad occasion to observe a relation existing between the eyes and the voice and has recently made a statement of two cases that came under his treatment where actresses who had lost their voices completely recovered them when treat ed for defective eyes and fitted with proper glasses. He tells of one young woman in whose family eye diseases were hered itary who found herself at the age of 22 losing her voice. Her eyes were found to be in need of attention and when she had been supplied with glasses she promptly recovered her sinning voice. When she discarded the glasses some time later and her eyes were once more neglected, her voice also relapsed into a husky state that precluded all sing ing. This practitioner has observed a numberf similar cases and the dis covery of the relation between the eyes and the voice should certainly be val- Piano esign uable to stage folk and others who de pend largely upon their voices for their .. .vorld.
