Gerenuaent employes at. Vancouver.,
Mayer Storey, City Attorney Long and
others of the City officials, attended as
members of the club, for their names are
among those added to the rolls.
The Commercial Club starts upon its
prosperous term with a renewed purpose
to keep in view the objects for which it
was organized. It Is the place where the
commercial men of the City are expected
to meet for mutual benefit in discussing
common conditions, and where they may
also be brought In contact with other
branches at the business community. De
velopment of a strong, co-operative com
mercial spirit, quick to detect City or State
interests, and united in fighting for their
achievement, was the spirit that gave the
ctub birth, and what it has accomplished
on these lines is gratifying to Its original
promoters. Its public function in this re
spect has made members feel that the
dub was entitled to public recognition as
sueh factor In community work. With
the renewed vigor of great progress, and
President Cake's hand still at the helm,
much is hoped for the future.

Cittb, which had immediate charge of

Sheriff Frazier yesterday finished mak
ing returns of the sales of property for
delinquent taxes for 1S9S. This leaves the
Sheriff's office with no tax books on hand,
something that has not happened before
for years. There has always been some
sort of a roll, either delinquent or orig
inal, in process of collection, since Mr.
Frazier came into office, In 1S96.
The 188 tax-roll was opened for collec
tion March 23, 1899, and was kept open
until July IS. The Sheriff's report, which
was filed when the delinquent roll was
made out, is as follows:
Total amount of tax roll $1,339. W2 42

Multnomah won the interstate bowling
championship and secured the Graham &
Moore trophy in the final games of the
contest last night. Commercial, by win
ning four games from the Union Club,
gets third place, and Arlington added to
its percentage by taking three from the
Seattle Bowling Club. The games at
Multnomah were well worth seeing, the
scores being high ones and the games
hard fought. The visitors won the first
game, but fine work by the home team
won the other three, two of which were
very close. Multnomah's poor work In
the first game gave the visitors a ma
jority of three on total pins for the night
Craft was the star of the evening, roll
ing up 230 and taking the contest record
for four games. His fine work landed him
within six pins of Buckman, who wins
first place in individual standing. The
Seattle team did magnificent work, and
proved themselves to be bowlers of the
highest order. Churchill led the team
with 190. Nelson bowled terrific games,
except the last one. After the games the
visitors were entertained tit the Pert
land, where Irving T. Cole, In a very
neat and appropriate speech, presented
the cup to the victors, which was accept
ed on behalf of the Multnomahs by H. L.

WASHINGTON.. Feb. 24.-MIss Lillian
Paunoefote, daughter of Lord Pauncefote,
British ambassador to the United States,
was married at noon today to the Honor
able Rofbert Bromley, of Stokehall, New
ark, Nottinghamshire, England. The wed
ding was one of the most notable that has
occurred in Washington for many years.
Quaint old St John's Church, where the
ceremony was performed, has a capacity
of about 800, standing room Included, and
this did not serve to accommodate a tithe
of those who wished to witness the cere
mony. The ushers were all attaches of
the Embassy, Colonel Arthur Lee. Gerard
Lowther, Sir Charles Eliot. Max Muller
and Humphreys Owen. Master Sidney
Kent Legar. In the eostume of a page of
Charles II, bore the heavy train and was
followed by the bridesmaids. These were
Miss Esther Bromley, sister of the groom;
Miss Curson, cousin of Lord Curzon, the
Viceroy of India; Miss Hattie Sargeant,
of Boston: Hon. Sybyl and Hon. Audrey
Pauncefote, sisters of the bride. The cere
mony was performed by the Right Rev.
Bishop of "Washington, Henry Yates Sat
terlee. assisted by Rev. Alexander Mac
kay Smith. Roctor of St. John's.
After the ceremony a wedding breakfast
Dr. Slocum, the eminent New York scientist, recently demonstrat
ed at the Slocum laboratories, before a committee of noted medical
men representing the principal societies, that over 87 per cent, of
all cases of consumption are due to lung weakness. Lung weak
ness, in turn, is generally due to other diseases, such as catarrh,
grip, bronchitis, chronic coughs, etc., which lay bare the mucous
surfaces of the head and throat and Invite the rapid growth of the
deadly bacilli that destroy life.
Dr. Slocum, after years of ceaseless laboratory experiments, has
finally discovered a progressive treatment for the absolute cure of
consumption or tuberculosis and he has proven that the germs of this
disease cannot live when brought in contact with certain drug force.
"While learned physicians sought In vain for a specific cure for
consumption and finally gave up In despair, and while the great
Pasteur came nearer a solution of the mighty problem by discover
ing the existence of the bacillus- itself, yet it remained for America,
through Dr. Slocum, to discover the means for driving these germ3
from the system.
What a blessing to millions of every age! No more robbery by
the grim destroyer, but. Instead, perfect immunity from all pulmon
ary diseases.
Briefly described, tho Slocum Treatment, consisting of four sepa
rate remdles, is progressive, scientific and absolute in its wonderful
work; it will
1st. By killing: the deadly consumpiirc bacilli (also found
largely in the Unities of head, throat and lungs, and in the
expectorations of stubborn coughs and colds).
Sd. By healing the raw, inflamed mccons surfaces (es
pecially in catarrh, bronchitis, asthma and throat Irritation).
3d. By toning up the system and. strengthening the nerves
(always necessary in -nasting away and despondency).
4th. By building Iicalthy flesh to fortify against future
attacks. (Never possible until the bacilli are removed and the
raw surfaces arc healed by Slocum.)
There Is yet to be submitted n. case of consumption that p
cum Treatment cannot cure, unless It be in the last stage, where the
lunes are almost or wholly destroyed.
Dr. Slocum urges every sufferer, not only from consumption, but
from all other pulmonary diseases, to obtain perfect health before
too late.
Guesswork has been supplanted by science Ignorance by know
ledge. Slocum has solved the problem that means the saving of mil
lions of useful lives.
To further demonstrate tho Talue of his new discoveries. Dr.
Slocum has arranged to send to every reader of The 'Oregonlan a
FREE course, consisting of the four preparations (The Slocum Sys
tems), to all who write for them.
Simply address yonr letter to Dr. T. A. Slocum, OS Pine
street. New Yort, If. Y., giving your express and postofllce
address, Flense state that you read this in the Portland
Oregonian.
No matter how many discouragements you have met with, The
Dr. Slocum Remedies will cure you.
