AMERICAN AXD BRITISH CRACKS
COMPETED IX ENGLAND.
MeWrom ThU Side Won Eight Oat
f TttcItc Events In TVnica
They Competed.
LONDON, July 7. The- American ath
letes won eight out of 13 amateur events
for the championship of .Great Britain.
The Amateur Athletic Association cham
pionship sanies -were held at Stamford
Bridge, and as the Americans competed
in only 12 of .the events, they won all but
four of the contests In which they took
part. Such a clean sweep is without a
parallel. More especially Is it noticeable
when It is remembered that they op
posed the best amateurs, not only from
England, Ireland and Scotland, but the
colonies as well.
The New York Athletic Club got the
lion's share, taking the weight-putting.
hammer-throwing, pole vaulting and four- -I
mile run. Pennsylvania was second.
Winning the high Jump, the hurdles and
the long Jump. GeorgetownUniversity
won the 100-yard dash. Princeton Uni
versity secured second place in the 100
yard dash and the high Jump, while Chl
cago University secured the same place
in the quarter-mile run, and Pennsylva
nia added to the laurels by getting sec
ond place in the pole vault. Syracuse
University failed to put In an appearance,
both her men not arriving in time to en
, able them to participate in the events.
If a few American competitors had not
been prevented either from running en
tirely, or been so out of form, owing to
the climate, probably every event would
httve been won by them, but with Cre
gan. of Princeton, in ill health, scarcely
knowing whether ho was going to run un
til the bell rang, and with Terry, vt
Princeton, entirely knocked out with a
water knee, and Orion and Alexander
Grant unable -to come within 20 seconds
of their normal time, it was impossible
for the Americans to make a clean sweep.
Kraenzleln secured a new record for
hurdles over grass, and gained more ap
plause than the other competitors, re
gardless of nationality. As Lord Alver
stone said, when they were distributing
the prizes:
"Kraenzleln, we have not got medals
enough to give you. We only hope-you
Americans will come next year and de
fend your cup. Then we hope to have
better runners to put up against you."
All the heats .of the 100-yard race were
won by Americans, with the exception of
one. which Standley Rowley, the New
South Wales champion, secured. "An
other American," was passed from mouth
to mouth as the Pennsylvanlans, Tigers'
and Georgetowns colors came flying
down the straight.
Before the final of the 100-yard contest
was run. the mile race was started. It
proved a poor contest until the last lap,
when the men were all bunched. Then
C. Bennett, one of the best In England,
wentto the front and won as he liked, in
poor time.
Hurdles, final heat C. Kraenzleln, Uni
versity of Pennsylvania, first; Pritchard
second. Trafford third. Time, 0:15 2-5,
which is the English record.
Hammer-throwing John Flanagan, New
Tork Athletic Club, won; distance, 363
feet 1 inch. Truxton Hare, University of
Pennsylvania, threw 13S feet 9 inches, and
T. F. Klely threw 139 feet 2 inches.
Four-mile run J. T. Rlmmer won; time,
20:11. A. L. Newton, of the New York'1
Athletic Club, was fifth. Ho was the only.,
American who finished.
Half-mile run, final Tysoe won; time,
1:57 4-5. Cregan was second, and Dens
ham was third.
Long Jump A. C Kraenzleln, Univer
sity of Pennsylvania, won; distance, 22
feet 10 Inches. j
Quarter-mile, final M. "W. Long. New i
Tork Athletic Club, won; time, 0:49 4-5.
Moloney of Chicago was second, and
"Welsh was third.
Two-mile steeplechase S. J. Robinson
won; time, 11:08 4-5.
Pole-jump Johnson, New Tork Athletic
Club, won: distance, 11 feet 4 inches.
While -putting the weight was in prog
ress, the final heat of the 100-yard race
was run. All the men lined up were
Americans except Rowley, the Australian
champion. From the crack of the pistol
to the breasting of the ta?e the struggle
was desperate between Tewksberry and
Duffy. Pennsylvania and Georgetown
fought for every Inch, Duffy flying in
ahead in even time. Rowley was fourth,
badly beaten.
The victory In the weight-throwing
contest added another point to the Amer
ican score. Sheldon, who stood like a
giant among the putters, threw 44 feet 6
inches on his first try. This was never
beaten, and Sheldon won from the Irish
man, Dennis Horgan, without difficulty,
although the latter's record is over 48
feet, J. C. McCracken, of the University
of Pennsylvania, was third, with 39 feet
10 inches. Garrett, of Johns Hopkins, put
36 feet 9 inches. John Flanagan, of the
New Tork Athletic Club, although pres
ent, did not compete.
In the preliminary heat for the hurdles,
A. C. Kraenzleln, of the University of
Pennsylvania, easily beat Maloney, of
Chicago University, in 0:156. the world's
record on grass. The crowd yelled Its
delight at Kraenzleln's exhibition.
Pritchard, of Bengal, won his heat with
ease, defeating W. P. Remington, of the
University of Pennsylvania, who fell at
the last hurdle.
In the first heat of the half-mile run,
A. E. Tysoe, holder of the championship,
easily defeated his American competitors.
John Brady, of Williams College, WI11
iamston, Mass., was second, and David
C. Hall, of Brown University, was third.
Edward R. Bushness, of the University
of Pennsylvania, and Riley, of Boston,
entered this heat, but did not run.
The second heat of the half-mile run
was captured comparatively easily by J.
B. Densham, who defeated Walter E.
Drumheller, of the University of Penn
sylvania, and Edward M. Mechllng. also
of the University of Pennsyh-anla. Dens
ham seemed palpably to elbow Drumhel
ler out of his course, and Drumheller pro
tested, but the judges overruled him.
Captain Cregan, of Princeton, though
not up to his usual form, won his half
mile heat with ease, running beautifully
and beating H. E. Graham, the Cam
bridge crack, by five yards. Harvey H.
Lord, of Chicago University, was third.
The high Jump attracted little atten
tion. J. H. Leahy, the English and Irish
champion, whoso record is 6 feet 4
inches, could only clear 5 feet 7 Inches.
J. K. Baxter, of the University of Penn
sylvania, creeping up to the bar, cleared
with ease 6 feet 2 Inches, but Walter
Carroll, of Princeton, could not rise
above 5 feet 94 inches, and xled for sec
ond place with W. E. B. Henderson, of
Cambridge, and P. O'Connor, of Ireland.
Baxter's Jumping elicited frequent cheers.
The final heats of the hurdles gave
America her fourth victory out of five
events, Kraenzleln walking away from
Pritchard and winning as he liked In
0:15 2-5. Nothing was ever before seen In
England like Kraenzleln's lightning flight,
and the crowd broke into loud applause
as the pride o Pennsylvania broke the
tape. Pritchard, the Indian champion,
was several yards behind.
In the quarter-mile run, Dixon Board
man, of the New Tork Athletic Club,
failed to win his heat. He was beaten
by W. H. Walsh, one of Scotland's best
runners. M. H. Long, of the New Tork
Athletic Club, won -his quarter-mile heat
as he liked, beating W. A. J. Holland, of
Georgetown University, who was sec
ond, and several British entries. Malo
ney, of Chicago University, had a walk
over in his heat for the quarter-mile,
Stanley Rowley, of Australia, Harvey H.
Lord, of Chicago University and Waite,
of Syracuse, backing out. Another heat
was won by C. G. Davison from Henry
Berry Stack, of Chicago Unlyerslty. Da
vison, It will be remembered, ran for
Cambridge, and Boardman is the repre
gentaUv Qt Harvard-Tale,
Up to this stage, the crowd, though
numbering about 3X0 persons, had been
singularly undemonstrative. Now and
again "Rahl, rah! rah!" was heard from.
Pennsylvania's supporters, but on the
whole the crowd was stolid. "The Amer
icans are going to win." was ihe gen
eral expression -when the heats started,
and It generally proved true.
In the meanwhile the four-mile run
had been finished In excellent time, but
A. Lv Newton, of the New Tork Athletic
Club, the only American who could stand
the pace, finished far behind -the winner.
In the four-mile run America had five
entries. Alex Grant, University of Penn
sylvania, who apparently was out of
form, gave up after a mile, and "Dick"
Grant, of Boston; soon dropped behind,
and finally stopped.
Simultaneously the hammer-throwing
and pole-jump was in progress. John
Flanagan, of the New Tork Athletic
Club, astonished the spectators in the
former event. His first throw was 161
feet 2 inches, while T. F. Klely. the
holder of the championship, could only
reach 137 feet 74 inches. J. C. McCrack
en. of the University of Pennsylvania,
soon dropped out. only covering 134 feet.
Truxon Hare, of the University of Penn
sylvania, did better, with 137 feet S
inches. Proceeding with the hammer
throwing, Flanagan improved on his first
throw by two feet, and won easily. Klely
could not nearly touch his own record
of 151 feet, but Just managed to beat
Hare.
The final of tho half-mile run was very
exciting. Princeton's captain, Cregan.
led until the last 100. yards. Then, amid
the greatest excitement, Tysoe, the hold
er of the championship, gradually over
hauled him and snatched victory from
America in comparatively "popr time,
which Cregan should have beaten, if he
had been in anything like his usual term;
but, like the majority of the Tigers, he
seemed to have staled by his extended
stay in England.
Kraenzleln had hard work in the long
Jump. P. O'Connor, the Irish-American,
was & close second, with 23 feet 44
inches, and P. J. Leahy was third, with
22 feet 4"4 Inches, while William "Reming
ton and T. B. McCain, of the University
of Pennsylvania, scored 21 feet 4 Inches
and JZL feet 11 inches, respectively.

"Silver Certlflcateii."
GASTON. July 6. To the Editor.)
This morning I sold a money-order, ac
cepting a 35 silver certificate in payment
for same. The party then asked me why
I received them at their face when they
were quoted In The Oregonlan under
"Money, Exchange, Etc," at 61Q6254c
in New Tork. I frankly admitted that
that was one thing about the money
question that this "gold bug" could not
answer, but said I would refer It to The
Oregonlan for satisfactory explanation.
He thought, however, he could see some
schemo of the money power In it. Ton
know there is always some great political
scheme in everything now, from the quo
tation on a bushel of wheat to the mar
ket price of silver. C. W. HUDSON.
The silver certificates quoted In the
New Tork commercial report are not the
Issue of the Government, but of assayers
and dealers, and refer to bulk or bar sil
ver, worth 61 fo 62fi cents per ounce
in the market. They are similar to ware
house receipts for wheat or any other
commodity, and have no reference to sil
ver coins kept at part with gold by all
the resources of the Government, or to
certificates issued in lieu of silver dollars.

still the mare was flying along in front.

The Kentuckian waa nearly so. Then
came Imp from tho rear, carrying her
great weight of 123 pounds as If It were
a feather, with Odom perched upon the
big saddlo loaded with lead. He worked
with hands and head to bring her to
the front.
Down through tho stretch they thun

came the oh out "Look at Jack Point," for
he waa coming with a new lease of life
and as he his heels spurned the ground he

winner, barring accidents. There were
good Tiorsen behind him. however, and
Odom was urging Imp like a. demon. He
had a clear path and no chance of an
accident It waa useless, however, for
there were two youngsters ahead of tho
black whirlwind and they had 20 pounds

distance and such a fast race. As the

Qulclc Work "Seeded In China.
Pendleton Tribune.
A. war with China ay develop a kind of
soldier entirely new on the battle-field.
Already the Chinese forces are looked
upon with some fear and if the troubles
are prolonged until they gain some expe
rience with modern arms the possibilities
are that with their countlesn numbers, the
combined armies cf eight nations will have
many a long and hard battle before the
Celectlals are yabdued or peace restored.
It Is true that the Chinese are Ignorant
of modern warfare, but their lack cf fear
of death, their belief in fatalism, and
their hatred of the invading foreigners
will drive them into battlo and hurl them
tgalnst the bayonets of the enemy, re
gardless of the cost. When one army is
destroyed another can take Its place and
not be misled from the enormous toou-
laticn of the empire. A Chinaman is slow
ta "wrath, but once his Ire kindled if be
" flsed purpose, unchangeable as
idc lace oi mo 50a no ureuips. u iud
hordes of China become thoroughly
aroused, there will many a foreigner .fall
upon the battle-field ere a final truce
Is called. Now Is tho opportunity fortha
international forces. While tho enemy- la
yet -unarmed, unfortified and unaroursed.
Qulck work now would save thousands of

racy was pledged to Bryan and Stovpn
son. The exceptions were Nebraska,
Kansas and 8oulS Dakota, representa
tives of these states saying they thought
it doubtful whether they could be car
ried for "Bryan, unless a Populist should
remain in the field. At the same time
they claimed they did not care to sacri
fice Mr. Towne and force him to become
a Watson, even on a smaller scale. Stress
"was laid on tho danger of losing four
Senators' in these three states.
The Silver Republicans eald there would
be no doubt about carrying the Moun
tain States, but they had little hope of
the-Pacifle Coast The matter of Tun
ning a ticket will probably be determined
after a conference of the leaders at Lin
coln, as It Is understood many will meet
Mr. Bryan there Monday.
Acting Chairman Edmonton, General
James B. Weaver and Thomas Patterson
spoke for the Populists, while Chairman
Tillotson, .ex-Senator Dubois and Repre
sentative Shafroth spoke for the Silver
Republicans. All of the Silver Republi
cans, announced their hearty support of
the Bryan and Stevenson ticket
The Silver Republicans presented the
names of Chairman Tillotson, Senator
Teller" and ex-Senator Dubois for repre
sentation on the Democratic executive
committee. The Populists did not .pre
sent any names for this committee, say
ing that until they could confer with
the leaders In the varldus, states they
would take no action-. 'It was determined
that addresses in the interest of the
Bryan and Stevenson ticket should be
Issued very Hoon by the Democratic and
Silver Republican parties, tv bo followed
later by an address from the- P,opvllst
party when it was ready to- act
Chairman Jones said that everything
was working toward harmonious action
by the reform forces, and the indications
were that all parties twouId soon be pull
ing together for the Bryan and Steven
son ticket The committee at 12:30- P. M.
adjourned sine die. A number of the
leaders left for Lincoln this afternoon, to
confer with Mr. Bryan.
Practical fusion between the Demo
cratic and Populist parties on the
Presidential ticket has been de
cided upon by the Populist Na
tional committee. Unless present plans
arc changed, however,, the Democratic
Vice-Preeidentlal candidate will not be
indorsed, whether or not Charles A.
Towne decides to withdraw his name as
the candidate of the Populist party, as
this, it ia feared, would result in a large
deflection to the Mlddle-ctf-the-Road
Populists.
Mr. Towne will go to Lincoln at
the invitation of Mr. Bryan. The
whole situation will be thoroughly
discussed, and upon Mr. Bryan's views
will depend, in a large measure. Mr.
Towne's decision In regard to the Vice-
Presidency. He will not announce his de
cision until he has had conferences with
other leaders In both the Democratic and
Populist parties and until he communi
cates with the Populist National com
mittee, which will noO be for several days
at least, he will take no further ac
tion. In case Mr. Towne decides to withdraw
his name as the Vice-Presidential candi
date of the Populist party, the National
Committee will select another candidate.
The sentiment apparently, Is against the
endorsement of Mr. Stevenson on account
of the peculiar conditions existing in sev
eral of the Western States, notably Kan
sas, Nebraska and South Dakota, where
the Populist vote is larger than the
Democratic and where the Populist lead
ers fear the straight endorsement of the
Democratic ticket would Jeopardize the
success of the ticket But the parties
will work together. In states where Pop
ulist strength Is greater, the understand
ing will be that the electors on both
tickets will favor Bryan and Towne. This
will apply especially to the Western
States. In the Southern States and In
other sections where the Populists ad
mit their party Is distasteful to the Demo
crats, the electoral tickets will be for
Bryan and Stevenson.
In the electoral college,, according to
the general plan as outlined, it is the in
tention to unite thfe vote, probably on Mr.
Stevenson. This general plan was out
lined at the meeting of the Populist Na
tional committee, which was held last
night at the close of the meeting between
conference committees of the Democratic,
Populist and Silver Republican parties,
and which adjourned early today after a
protracted debate.
"The whole idea is to concentrate our
forces and work for the success of Wm.
J. Bryan," said Congressman Ridgly. of
Kansas, today. "The "Democratic plat
form and ticket is satisfactory to us, but
peculiar conditions exist In many of the
states where our strength Is the greatest,
and we consider it advisable to have a
complete Populist ticket In the field, as
in this way wo can best hold our forces."
C. A. Towne. asked today If he would
withdraw as Populist Vice-Presidential
nominee in order that" Stevenson's name
may be substituted and tne Populist ticket
made to correspond with that named by
the Democratic National Convention, is
quoted as saying:
"I cannot say anything Just now. TU
make an announcement in a few days.

Open-AIr Band, Concerts Wanted.
PORTLAND. July 6. (To the Editor.)
We used to have band concerts on the
plaza, but the custom Ecems to have be
come obsolete. How much the people en
Joy open-air concerts can easily be seen
by the attendance even when tho even
ings are somewhat chilly. These amuse
ments will make us certainly more metro
politan than we haye been of late years,
and the expense will be well laid out by
our people. As you, Mr. Editor, are In
the chair. I move you that it is the sense
of this community that the Fourth of
I Jtilv committee be
continued in oraco
until September for tho purpose of ob-
tainlng funds and arranging open-air
concerts on Wednesdays and Saturdays
for the Summer I have no doubt It will
be seconded fiom all sides, so that it
will be before the people and carry unan
imously, leaving" the committee no chince
to protest. ROBERT C. WRIGHT.

ADVANTAGES OF $118 TREATMENT
IN CATARRHAL AFFECTIONS
What Summer Means'
in the Cure of Catarrh
There are contracted during the periods
of Fall, Winter and Spring those ca
tarrhal conditions of the head and throat
and other parts that are engaged in
carrying air to the lungs. The changeable
weather, the cold spells followed by warm
periods with thaws and dampness, to
gether with a necessity during the cold
weather of living indoors with the house
shut up and often overheated, the Impure
air of closed buildings, all tend to the
development of disease of those parts
which carry the air to the lungs and to
the ears. Not only does the Inclemency
of Spring, Fall and Winter produce such
diseases, but the same causes that pro
duce the diseases also Interfere with the
efforts of the doctor to cure them. Dur
ing the Summer months things are dif
ferent. The climate Is warmer, the high
winds loaded with dusty particles that
irritate the diseased parts that carry the
air are absent; there is plenty of fresh
air, as the house is kept open, and this,
together with outdoor life, so improves
the general health that Nature is able
to Improve all those diseases that attack
the breathing tracts and ears. Thus, in
the treatment of all catarrhal diseases,
that which has been frequently urged is
true, namely, that one month of treat
ment during the Summer, when the lia
bility to catching cold Is reduced to the
minimum and Nature lends her aid to the
physician. Is worth two months of tho
most skillful and conscientious treatment I
during Winter.

THE TREATMENT THAT CURES
Dr. Copeland' Ncrr Treatment,
that has lifted the darkness and
blisht of the vrord "incurable from
hundreds of thousands of these
cases In the Throat, Bronchial
Tubes and Lang, -works Its curative j
action for tvro reasons t '
(1) It reaches every sore spot, from
the orifice of the nose to the deepest
part of the lunscs, to the Innermost
recesses of the middle car.
(S) Instead of irritating:, lnflamina,
and feeding: the fires of the diaieaae,
It soothes, quiets, heals aud cures.
What Is the treatment that cures these
conditions, once regarded Incurable? By
what process does it restore the diseased
membrane, remove the poison and relieve
the soreness of disease? Let the experi
ence of persons cured and being cured
tell.
How It Cures Catarrh.
Here Is a patient taking treatment for
Catarrh of the Head. He breathes the
soothing medication through his nostrils
and the nasal channels open up, the
stufted-up feeling In the head leaves and
he can breathe naturally through the
nose again. The dull pains across the
front of the head fade away, and the
nasal membrane Is soothed until the in
flammation and soreness are all gone.
The bad odor of the breath passes away,
and the lost sense of smell returns. The
dropping In the throat Is checked, the
nose does not stop up toward night any
more, the sneezing and snufllng have
ceased, the discharge from the nose
grows less and less and finally stops al-

and eradicated from the system before
It ever reaches the throat. It has not
been driven down Into his throat or Into
his lungs or Into his cars, as Is so often
done by other treatments.

near Keswick, Cal. On account of the
great number of Japs, who have been
coming to the Coast lately, this action
was not looked upon with favor by the
white men of the smelter works at that
place. One night last week, 200 men went
to .he camp of the Japanese, and, order
ing them to dress, took the 31 coolies
domiciled there to the station and held
them until the south-bound overland
came along. They then put them on the
train with orders not to come back. As
the men had neither money nor passes,
the conductor allowed them to ride only
to Redding, where they were put off.
After a lengthy consultation they start
ed south along the track and are doubt
less still going.
HARD ON UNGENEROUS ONES
Ifevr Sort of Collection-Box Used "by
a Kerr York Congregation.
Rochester Herald.
Here Is a man who has a schervs to In
crease church collections. The fdea of
the scheme Is not a very commendable
' .. . - e T.
Father Ducey. the rector of St. Leo s
Church, in New York City, told his con
gregation that he had decided to use tho
plates Just once so that his congregation
could see what they were, but he prom
ised them that they would not be used
again.
Before the collectors started around
among the congregation a week ago Sun-
fday Father Ducey told them about the
scheme:
"The invention comes from the diocese
of Rochester," said Father Ducey, smil
ingly, "and the man who is introducing
it said that all of the otner churches had
obtained a supply of the boxes. Tho in
vention, it was claimed, would prevent,
for Instance, a wealthy man from putting
in a bright cent for a S3 gold piece. It
would be there In the box before the eyes
of hi3 fellow-parishioners and the collect
or long enough to ascertain Just how
much it was, and then it would disappear
into a receptacle below, operated by the
collectbr. The Invention was proof
against tho dishonesty of a collector and
very much like the numerous tabulating
machines in the commercial world. The
man who waa giving to God would have
the satisfaction of seeing his contribution
go down Into the lower receptacle, from
which only the pastor could take It.
"I laughed at the Idea. What a charge
against the honesty of the church mem
bers and the collector! Such ecclesiasti
cal inventions are a reflection upon the
honesty ot Intention of every one. One
J might Just as well use a registering bell
What Summer Means in
the Cure of Lung Troubles
If Or. Copeland were asked what medi
cal training would accomplish the great
est good, he would unhesitatingly say:
"The lesson to those with enfeebled
constitutions, weak lungs, or a tendency
to Bronchial Troubles or Consumption, of
tho vital opportunities that Summer of
fers them."
The best teaching is the teaching that
will save the most lives.
And this lesson to those with the slight
est predisposition to Consumption will
save more lives than any that could ba
taught.
In the Summer, bronchial diseases may
be more speedily cured; with Naturehelp
ing the work, the result Is more certain;
after the cure the constitution resumes
its normal condition more Quickly; those
so feeble that they should not even ex
pose themselves to the weather during
the Winter may visit the offices, and are
helped In the progress of treatment, rath
er than injured by the exposure to out
door air. With many of the more serious
cases where long-neglected catarrhal dis
ease, invaded the bronchial tubes which.
f convey the air to the lungs, has taken its-
advance into the tissues of the lungs
themselves, has reached the end of the
road lined with the mucous membrane
upon which it lives and feeds, and, find
ing no new tissue, settles down to feed
upon the lung cells with many of these
serious cases, treatment during the Sum
mer months is the only hope. Little if
any help can be promised them during;
the Winter.
It Is then during the Summer that the
danger of catarrhal extension Into the
deeper part of the bronchial tubes or
U"B3.." " ".'. .. o.
montha that those more desperate cages
involving the lungs themselves may be
treated with any hope.
How It Cures Deafness.
Here Is another patient who for years
had been a sufferer. Every fresh cold
i seemed to stay longer than former colds.
and he noticed that his ears got stopped
up and his hearing became duller and
duller, and there were ringing and buzz
ing noises In his ears. The Catarrh had
passed upward and backward from the
throat along tho Eustachian tubes leading
from the throat into the ear. He had
visited throat doctors, and ear doctors
and catarrh doctors, without relief. In
this condition we find him Inhaling the
never-falling medication and soon he no
tices a change. The noises In the ear
stop, there Is no other discharge, the
hearing gets better and finally the tubes
of the ears open up and something seems
to give way in the head. His hearing
had completely returned. No wonder ha
considers the result a marveL
How It Cures Lung Diseases.
Here Is another pitiful case. He had
all the history of colds and catarrh ex
tending downward from the nose to the
throat, to glottis, to windpipe, to tho
bronchial tubes, and then Into the small
tubes of the lungs. His cough always
troubled him. He raised large quantities
of vlle-looklng material, he had fever
every afternoon and cou'd not sleep at
night. He had no appetite and his
strength and ambition failed. He had
night sweats even once In awhile, and
feared that his end was near.
See him after 'a course of treatment,
A new man. Tho healing and soothing
medication has time after time sought
out every nook of the disease, even to
the extreme depth of the lung cell3. and
bathed and cooled and healed the mem
brane. .There are no more ot tne ioui
' discharges, no more cough, no more fe-
,. .,....
ver, no more pain, no more nigiu ancow,
The appetite returns, and with it comes
back strength and ambition. The cheeks
fill out and regain their color. The step
becomes buoyant. He has been saved
from lingering but absolutely sure death.

When the pastor had stepped down from
the pulpit all waited anxiously to see the
new machines. Soon thfc fdur ushers
marched up the aisle. The two In the
middle aisle were armed with the ma
chines, while those In the side aisles had
tho old plates. The former two ap
proached the first pew. In which was an

Coffee Sensoned "With Sheep Dip.
La Grande Journal.
About three months ago dispatches con
tained the news of a damaged vessel in
the harbor containing coffee and sheep
dip. The two articles of commerce wero
found floating together in the hold, and
the merchants to whom they were con
signed refused to accept them, not only
because they were water soaked, but be
cause the sheep dip had not had a salu-
! tary ffect upon ie coffee. One of our
. mArnhnt nr thnt tlm nr-dip.
home merchants at that time predicted
that Eastern Oregon would soon be over
run with cheap coffee. There Is now In
this section a man who offers to sell for
8 cents a grade of coffee which our mer
chants cannot buy wholesale for 12. There
may be some connection between the two
incidents.
