PREDICTS CHINESE FUTURE
F. AV. Bible. Missionary. Will De
scribe Ureal Celestial Awakening.
The fact that all eyes just now are be
ing turned to the Orient has induced
Religious director Clark, of the Y. M. C.
A... to obtain F. W. Bible as the speaker
Rt the men's bigr meeting today at 3
P. M. Mr. Bible holds that China is the
country of tomorrow and that even now
In the uttermost parts of the interior the
Chinaman is proving that, given the ini
tiative, he can make his influence felt
in the commercial world.
Where ,the Japanese is a copyist, de
clares Mr. Bible, the Chinaman is orig
inal. Brave, fearless of death and hav
ing a high sense of commercial morality,
when once he enters the business arena
In real earnest he will not be content
with any place short of the top.
Mr. Bible is a trained young American
who has already spent eight years In
China for the Presbyterian Church and
Is now returning to his work after a brief
furlough. Having been located at Hang,
chow, one of the treaty ports, be has
had ample opportunity to judge the
Chinaman in his so-called simplicity and
a he is when brought into combination
with the commerce of the Western world.
As a diplomat, rio less than a missionary,
Mr. Bible will deserve a large audience.
Owing to the interest in the awakening
of China. immediately following the
speaker the meeting will be thrown open
for discussion and all present invited to
express views. Preceding the. speaker
the children's choir and C. H. Gray, from
the First Christian Church, will render
a musical programme.

If Hescrt Claim Is Lost, Another May
Be Entered Kiplit of Entry
Is Restricted.
BCRNPS. Or.. April IS. (Special.)
The local land office has been advised
of the passage of two land laws which
are of considerable Importance to this
section of the state. One refers to the
entry of a second desert claim where
the first one has been lost in any way
and reads as follows:
That any person who prior to the passage
of this act has made entry under the desert
land laws, but from any cause has Inst, for
feited, or abandoned the same, shall be en
titled to the benefits of the desert land law
as though such former A'litry had not been
made, and any person applying for a second
desert land entry under this act shall fur
nish the description and dale of his former
entry: Provided, that the provisions of this
act shall not apply to any person whose for
mer entry was assigned in whole or In part
or canceled for fraud, or who relinquished
tho former entry for a valuable consider
ation. The other lav.' limits and restricts
the right of entry and assignment
under the desert land law, and au
thorizes the extension of time within
which to make final proof on desert
claims. It reads as follows:
"That from and after the passage
of this act the right to make entry of
desert lands under the provisions of
the a-l approved March 3, 1SS7,' and
amended March 3, 1S91. shall be restrict
ed to surveyed public lands of the
character contemplated by said acts
and no such entries of unsurveyed
lunds shall bo allowed or made of
record. Provided, however, that any
individual qualified to make entry of
desert lands under said acts who has,
prior to survey, taken possession of a
tract of unsurveyed desert land not ex
ceeding 320 acrea in compact form, and
has reclaimed or has in sood faith com
menced the work of reclaiming- the
same, shall have the preference right
to make entry of such tract under said
acts. In conformity with the public
land surveys, within 90 days after the
filing of the approved plat of survey
in the district land office.
'That from and after the date of the
passage of this act no assignment of
an entry made under said acts shall
allowed or recognised, except It be to
an Individual who is shown to be
qualified to make entry under said ac?s
of tho land covered by the assigrned
