THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, JUNE 28, 1903.
MANDUFIA
IS LUST
OF SEASON FLEET
British Steamship Will Clear
With Full Grain Cargo on
Last Day of June.
HEAVY EXPORTS FOR MONTH
.'losing 30 Days of Cereal Year Will
Set' Afloat From Portland Up
wards of 600,000 Bushels.
Steam Tonnage In Demand.
The British steamship Mandura,
iTaptaln Cobb, will be the last grain
ressel to clear from Portland during
the fiscal year, which will end June
10. The Mandura Is loading a full
;argo of wheat for the United Klng
lom and her master says that he will
tlear on the last day of the year. The
Mandura is being loaded by Kerr. Gif
ford & Co.
The Mandura will carry in excess of
200,000 bushels of wheat and will bring
the exports up to a good figure for
the. last month of the cereal year. So
far, the foreign exports of grain
amount to 50,801 barrels of flour and
213,034 bushels of wheat. Reducing
the flour to a wheat basis and adding
the cargo of the Mandura the foreign
grain exports will total approximately
652,200 bushels. These figures are
greatly in execess of the figures for
the corresponding period of the pre
vious year.
There has been an active demand
for steam tonnage for wheat of late,
but owners are holding rates far too
high. During the season Just ending
there has been a large number of
steamers engaged in the wheat trade
and shippers looked for an increase
in numbers during the season of
1908-09, but rates are at present pro
hibitory. The Mandura was one of the fleet of
colliers which came through the
Straits of Magellan with coal for the
fleet. The Mandura was held in the
harbor at San Francisco 52 days be
fore she was permitted to discharge
her cargo. On arrival at Portland her
bottom was foul and she went on dry
dock for cleaning and painting. On
the outward voyage she will take coal
at Coronel and again at Montevideo.
STATE OF CALIFORNIA SAILS
Steamship Carries Large Passenger
List and Full Cargo of Freight.
The steamship State of California
sailed for San Francisco yesterday
morning with 333 passengers and a
full cargo of freight. The passengers
were divided, 232 first class and 101
steerage. This was practically all that
the vessel could accommodate. Freight
business has increased to such an ex
tent that the steam schooners Yellow
atone and Shoshone have been char
tered to carry merchandise South.
There was an unconfirmed rumor on
the front yesterday to the effect that
the steamship State of California
would be replaced on the Portland-San
Francisco run by the steamship Queen.
The latter vessel is on the San Francisco-Seattle
run. She is larger than
the State and has accommodations for
a larger number of passengers. The
.addition of the steamship Queen to
the fleet of the San Francisco & Port
land Steamship Company will be ap
preciated by the merchants of Port
land, as they will be given faster serv
ice between the two ports.
TOWBOAT SHAVER IS LAUNCHED
Vessel Slides From Ways at Port
land Shipyards.
The new towboat Shaver was suc
cessfully launched from the ways at
the Portland Shipbuilding Company
yesterday morning at 10 o'clock. The
ceremony was attended by a large
number of steamboatmen and every
thing went off without a hitch. The
steamers Sarah Dixon and Wauna
stood by, but their services were not
necessary.
The Shaver is 155 feet in length, 30
feet beam and 6 feet depth of hold.
She is equipped with the machinery
taken from the steamer J. M. Hanna
ford, recently dismantled on the Upper
Columbia. The engines are old, but
powerful.
STEAMSHIP AGENTS TO MEET
Rates on Wheat and Flour Will
Probably Be Raised $1 Ton.
Agents of steamship lines operating
from Pacific Coast ports to the Orient
will meet this week in San Francisco.
The object of the meeting will be to
revise the rates now in effect on wheat
and flour shipments to Japan and
China. During the past six months
there has been a decided cut in regu
lar rates. This action on the part of
the regular lines was taken in order
to force the Jcbsen-Ostrander Com
pany from the field.
The latter firm is still in business,
however, and recently bid on a Gov
ernment contract to deliver freight
for the Government to Guam, Hono
lulu and Manila for $3.50 a ton. The
former rate was $8. At the meeting
to be held in San Francisco it is
thought that it will be voted to raise
the present rates $1 a ton.
Gasoline Launch for Alaskan Waters
ASTORIA, Or., June 27. (Special.)
The official measurement of the
gasoline launch Irene Barnes, recently

today. The dimensions of the craft
are as follows: Length, 46.3 feet;
beam, 12.3 feet; depth, 2.6 feet; ton
nage, 14 tons gross, 10 tons net. The
launch is equipped with a 35-horse-power
Troyer-Fox gasoline engine and
will be used as a cannery tender in
Alaskan waters.
Madison Bridge to Close for Repairs
Between the hours of midnight to
night and 6 o'clock Monday morning
the Madison-street bridge will be Im
passable to streetcars and pedestrians.
The draw will be swung open at 12
o'clock and will remain in that posi
tion until minor repairs to the ma
chinery have been completed.
Evle Secured for Deep-Sea Fishing.
ASTORIA, Or.. June 27. (Special.)
Arrangements are being made to fit
up the gasoline schooner Evle as soon
she 'returns from her present trip
down the coast for a deep-sea fishing
cruise ofT the mouth of the river. She
is to be provided with additional bal
last and equipped with the large
trawls, so that the work can be car
ried on in a proper manner. The ex
periments so far in this Industry have
been sufficiently successful to show
that this class of fishing can be made
a financial success.

from the office of Adjutant-General W.
E. Finzer. As shown by this order 70
Astoria young men are now on the roll
in readiness for mustering into the
service.
This action is the result of the con
ference of Coast Adjutant-Generals with
the War Department last Winter. At the
time relations with Japan were very
much strained, the War Department sent
for the Adjutant-Generals of Oregon,
Washington and California. The result
of the conference, which was held at
Washington, D. C, was that organization
of Coast artillery companies was ordered
in all three states.
Congress Makes Way Clear.
At the time the one obstacle was proper
adjustment of the new troops, but this
was obviated when Congress lately passed
a bill making it incumbent upon the
Government to furnish all National Guard
troops with full equipment. .
General Robert Shaw Oliver. Acting
Secretary of War, immediately upon the
passage of that law, communicated with
General Flazer regarding the raising of
a Coast artillery company here. General
Finzer had already arranged for the com
pany at Astoria and with the co-operation
of C. H. Abercrombie, City Attorney
at Astoria, easily secured the required
membership. The mustering order
follows:.
Order for New Troops.
GENERAL ORDERS NO. 10
Headquarters Oregon National Guard,
Adjutant General's Office. Portland Or .
June 27, 1808:
1. C. H. Abercrombie and 89 other citi
zens of Astoria, Or., subject to military
duty, having made application to be or
ganized Into" a military company under the
laws and regulations of the Oregon National
Guard, they are directed to assemble In
Astoria. Or., Monday, July 6. 1DOS at 8
o'clock P. M. for physical examination. All
applicants for enlistment having success
fully passed the physical examination will

2. Captain Marius B. Marcellus, Assist
ant Surgeon, will proceed to Astoria on the
date and be present at the hour specified
in paragraph one in order to conduct the
physical examination of all applicants for

expense Incurred is necessary In the mili
tary service.
Holman Mustering Officer.
3. First Lieutenant Richard W. Holman,
Third Infantry, is designated as mustering
officer and will proceed to Astoria. Or..
Monday, July 6, 190S. The expense incurred
is necessary in the military service.
4. This organization will be known as
First Company Coast Artillery Corps, and
will be mustered In Thursday, July 9, 190S,
at 6:30 o'clock P. M.
5. Immediately upon completion of mus
ter in. an election for Captain will be held.
First Lieutenant Richard W. Holman, Third
Infantry, is hereby designated as inspector
of election.
By order of the Commander-in-Chief,
W. B. FINZER. Adjutant-General.
First Company on Coast.
The new company will be the very first
organized on the Pacific Coast, although
Washington and California are to take
similar action at an early date. With
the difficulty encountered in securing
regulars to occupy Coast garrisons, the
value of the National Guard Coast artil
lerymen is apparent.
Pallas was made the station of an in
fantry company Wednesday night, when
General Finzer mustered in 80 men at
that place. C. D. Chorpening was elected
captain. The company will be equipped
at once out of Government supplies. New
Springfield rifles, khaki and blue uni
forms and full equipage is now en route
for the new troops from the Quartermas
ter's department at Washington, D. C.
Other troops are to be organized from
time to time. The Government is favor
ing the mustering in of new guard troops
and Oregon is assured of at least five
more companies of infantry and possibly
a troop of cavalry. Later the two Ore
gon regiments will be brigaded.
CLIMB MOUNT ST. HELENS
PLANS OF MAZAMAS FOR AXSC
Ali OCTIXG.
Party Will Leave Portland July 31
and Camp Will Be Located on
Spirit Luke.
Arrangements are being completed
for the annual outing of the Mazamas
to Mount St. Helens, July 31 to August
13. The camp is to be located at Spirit
Lake, at the north base of the moun
tain. The decision to establish the
camp at this point has been received
with approval by all the members of
the club, as it will afford excellent op
portunity for fishing and boating.
In addition to climbing the moun
tain, trips are to be made to the
'famous lava beds In the vicinity. The
ascent of Mount St. Helens is known
to be the shortest and least difficult of
any of the snowpeaks. The compara
tively short distance from Portland
will also undoubtedly induce" a larger
number of mountain-climbers to join
the party than has done so heretofore.
An excellent wagon road has recently
been completed to the camping place,
so that the trip from Toutle River
bridge will be a relatively easy one.
Among those who have signified
their intention of accompanying the
party are: Herbert W. Gleason, of
Boston, Mass., lecturer and photog
rapher, and Dr. C. Barck, of St. Louis.
' The main party will leave Portland,
Friday, July 31, at 2 P. M., and arrive
at Castle Rock, Wash., at 4:15 P. M.
All members of the party will remain
there over night. They will leave
Castle Rock at 6 A. M. the following
morning on the east-bound train on
the Silver Lake Railway.
Toutle River bridge will be reached
at 6 o'clock Saturday night. August 1,
where a temporary camp will be es
tablished. On the following morning
the party will make an early start and
arrive at the permanent camp at Spirit
Lake before night.
The outing committee, under whose
direction the trip is to be made, is
composed of the following: E. V. Shel
don. L. J. Hicks, M. W. Gorman, Anna
Rankin, Eleanor Gile, Portland; C. E.
Forsythe, Castle Rock; Ella McBride,

WE GUI
MEN
Our Cures Are Thorough and Permanent
NO EXPERIMENTS NO FAILURES QUICK CURES
OUR METHODS are up to date, and are indorsed by the highest medical authorities of Europe and Amer
ica. Hence our success in the treatment of men's diseases.
. MEN, if you are suffering from any disease or weakness, we want you to know you have a friend in us. We
want you to feel that you can come to us, with the troubles you'd tell to your closest friend or that you would
even hesitate to tell him. Our relations will be as PRIVATE and CONFIDENTIAL as they have been with
multitudes of others who have received our assistance. Be careful in selecting; a doctor to tre'at you, for it all
depends upon the physician you go to as to whether you get the cure you seek.- WE FULFILL ALL OUR
PROMISES and never hold out false hope.
Are You a Perfect Man With Plenty of Life and Energy '
and Vigor of Youth?
To be strong and manly is the aim of every man, and yet how many we find who are wasting the vitality
and strength which Nature gives them. Instead of developing into the strong, vigorous, manly young fellowt
that Nature intended them to be, they find themselves weak, stunted and despondent no ambition to do any
thing'. They struggle aimlessly along, sooner or later to become victims of that dread disease, nervous debil
ity; their finer sensibilities blunted and their nerves shattered.
Men suffer week in and month out because they know no better. Diseases of a private nature make them
backward to tell of their condition. They many times take their case to those who have not had the necessary
experience to treat intelligently those ailments peculiar to the male sex. That is where we have the advantage.
We have made a study of men 's diseases for years. It is our life work our specialty. We can cure you.
We have every appliance needed to aid, in treating complicated troubles. - JjJ
A few days' treatment will prove to you the success of our methods. t r

A WORD OF WARNING TO MEN
Just before you go a line further in this announcement, stop and ask yourself as to whether YOU are fol
lowing in the foolish footsteps of the man who neglects himself. Are YOU trying to cure yourself with nos
trums? Are YOU looking for treatment that will not curef If you are, it is certain that you will regret it.

women approach with
indescribable fear, fof
nothing compares with
the pain and horror of

of the suffering and danger in store for her, robs the expectant mother
of all pleasant anticipations of the coming. event, and casts over her
shadow of gloom which cannot be shaken off. Thousands of women
have found that the use of Mother's Friend during pregnancy robs
confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother
and child. This scientific liniment is a god-send to all women at the

WHY WE CURE where others fail: Our methods are up to date. "We thoroughly understand our busi
ness and apply our knowledge and skill on every case we undertake. We fulfill our promises and never accept
a case unless we believe we can cure it. We study the peculiar nature of every individual case and treat
the causes, not symptoms. We teach our patients how to help get well what to eat and drink during the
course of treatment and what to avoid. As to terms: Our large practice enables us to cure for less money
than the average so-called specialists and you see the results before you are required to pay us. Honest,
conscientious work speaks for itseif. Pretenders, jealous of our success, try to belittle us because our fee is
small, but intelligent men are not influenced by their arguments. We ask any man suffering from any disease
we treat to call and see us. Many cases supposedly incurable are often the result of poor treatment, and the
case is cured when methods such as we employ are directed toward "the cause, and with care and proper at
tention to your case now your health may be prolonged indefinitely. This alone should be incentive enough to
induce you to try once more, no matter who has failed to cure you in the past.

Oil. TAYLOR,
TO MALE READERS
OF THIS PAPER
A few months ago a man came to my 'of
fices and told a story of his experiences which
is so typical of what the average patient goes
through before coming to me that I wish every
man eould read it.
In the first place, this man was of strong
and healthy appearance, and began by telling '
me he was never sick in bed for a single day
as far back as he could remember. His symp
toms were lack of ambition, vim, energy and
power to concentrate his mind. He felt con
scious of a state ot physical imperfection, TBe iaatns specialist,
which embarrassed him and made him feel unfit to enjoy society, and,
as he expressed it, he was "played out all over."
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE
Questioning him as to what he thought caused his trouble, he ad
mitted excesses in early life, and confessed to a slight disorder con
tracted some five years past. By advice of well-meaning friends, he
tried prescriptions, which helped to a certain point, but failed to go
beyond that. His next step was to consult a doctor, and he sought out
one with a large general practice and good reputation. The doctor
cheered him with the assurance that he would undertake the treat
ment of his case, asked him a few questions and prescribed medicine,
both for local and internal use. For the first few weeks he improved
so much that he discontinued his visits to the doctor to stop the
drain on his purse. A little later he had a relapse, which was very
discouraging, especially as he felt the weakness coming on, which
caused pains in the back, sleeplessness and general lassitude. He
sought help from a specialist for disorders like his own, but soon
realized that he was in incompetent hands. The specialist, who had
been in business but a short time, closed his offices and went away.
Following this, the sufferer was attracted by the claims of a doctor
who told him that he must get next to Nature, and that Nature was
sewed up just inside of his electric belt. It cos! him about $100 to
find out that electricity would not help a bit.
In a very skeptical and hopeless frame of mind, this man came to
me. I examined him in a manner that he admitted he was never
examined before. I found the exact cause of the whole trouble, ex
plained it fully to him, together with my plan of treatment, and guar
anteed him a perfect and permanent cure, and offered to let him
PAY WHEN CURED. Last week he said he felt as good, souud and
healthy, as strong in vigor, as he ever had in his life.
SECRET OF MY SUCCESS
I proved to this man that the whole secret of rav success in curing
WEAKNESS, VARICOCELE, HYDROCELE, CONTRACTED DIS
EASES, was knowing definitely what treatment was indicated and
how to give it. There is no mystery about my methods or my medi
cines. My knowledge of Men's Ailments is superior because I have
devoted all my time for the past 20 years to this one branch of the
human machinery.

I CURE ALL, CONTRACTED DISORDERS
The serious results that may follow neglect of contracted diseases
could scarcely be exaggerated. Safety demands an absolutely thor
ough cure in the least possible time. 1 have treated more cases of
contracted disorders than any other physician upon the Pacific Coast.
My cures are thorough and are accomplished in less time, than other
forms of treatment require in producing even doubtful results. I
employ remedies of my own devising, and my treatment is equally
effective in both recent and chronic cases.
