Mrs Saloma Jones Davidson, a Port land pioneer woman of 1S50, died at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. , Olivia Boat, at Williams, Josephine County. Or- last Sunday, August 22. Mrs. Davidson was born in Monroe County. Kentucky, near the town of Berksvllle. August 13. 1S22. In 1S3S her parents removed to Schuyler Coun ty. Illinois, and on October 22., 1840. she was married to Elijah B. Davidson, also a native of Kentucy, but who. at the date of marriage, waa living near Mon mouth. Warren County, 111. By the year 1849 favorable reports regarding the "Oregon Country" having reached that section of that state, the Davidson, Squire Whitman and a number of other families prepared themselves for "crossing the plains." The start west ward was made March 2S, 1850, and August 31 the party arrived at "Fos ter's." a point near Eagle Creek, Clack amas County, of today. Mr. Davidson went direct to Milwau kle, arriving on September 2. where the familyspent the Winter. Being a carpenter by trade, he sought employ ment, but had no tools. He soon found a chance to get work at $9 a day on a mill, providing he had the necessary implements. In a short time he learned where a kit could 'be obtained for 200, containing everything needed by the "carpenter and Joiner" of that day. Af ter the mill work was finished, he was rgaged by Lot Whltcomb to work on his steamboat, or that name, which was launched at Mllwaukle on Christ mas day, 1550. He and some members of his family, among others his son, I. G. Davidson, of this city, were present ' on that occasion, and saw Captain Frederick Morse, of the schooner Mer chantman, instantly killed by the ex plosion of a cannon used In firing a sa- I lute In honor of the launching. On February 1, 1851, Mr. Davidson took up a donation land claim, the south line of which was the base line (now East Stark street), and the west line about East Forty-fourth street or the present time. Upon this he built a log cabin and lived four years, that being necessary before he could ac quire a title. Late in 1854 Mr. David son sold the southeast 240 acres of his claim for 11500. and In the latter part of the year following he sold the re mainder for $4000 10 an acre. .He then removed to Polk County, and bought a half section of land about half a mile north of the present town of Independence, paying $10 an acre there- J for. In I86S he sold out and removea to Williams. Josephine County, acquired a homestead, and made his home there until January IS, 18S8, the date of his death. Mr. and Mrs. Davidson had 13 chti dren. five of whom were born in 111! nols. One of these died in Infancy, and the remaining four came to Oregon with their parents. Eight children sur vive their mother, as follows: I. G. Dav idson, of Portland: J. S. Davidson and E. J. Davidson, of Williams: M. M. Dav idson, of Berkeley. Cal.; Mrs. Sarah J, Goodwin, of Oakley.

POINTERS SOUGHT HERE WASHINGTON WANTS TO KNOW ABOUT ROSE FESTIVAL. National Capital Asks for Sugges tions, Literature, Pictures and Other Data. Washington, the - National Capital. hrotrgh the Potomac Electric Power Company, has asked the Portland Rose Festival for pointers, literature and pictures of the shows and parades that have been held here. The object Is to rrange for a permanent annual cele- ratlon modeled after the yearly fes- ival of flbwers held here each June. President B. S. Josselyn. of the Port- and Railway. Light & Power Company, as received the following telegram from the Washington corporation, the body of the message being this: Please send pictures of vehicles ntered in last floral parades, with ill." This request was turned over by Mr. Josselyn to President Ralph W. Hoyt, of the Rose Festival, and a complete set of photographs and literature has been dispatched to Washington. The movement to Inaugurate such a festival in the National Capital grew primarily out of the bit of enterprise hown by Mr. Hoyt In sending to Presl- ent Tuft a bouquet of Portlatid roses s a friendly greeting last June on the opening day of the festivities here. Ia addition to this, the transcontinental railroads have used with effectiveness heir exploitation matter In placing the Portland Festival before the Washing ton public. " President Hoyt has written asking if there is any other Information or sug gestion that the local Festival can give. nd has asked for an outline of what he Eastern city proposes to do In the way of holding such acelebration. Ha regards this request as one of the trongest bits of evidence' that Port land is being advertised the Nation over by the Rose Festival. CLUB IS HELD OVER CITY Opposition to County Division May Slake Lewistcfn Dry. ' LEWISTON. Idaho, Aug. 2R. (Special.) The recent local option results in Idaho County have occasioned considerable speculation throughout Nei Perce County to whether a similar election would be called here. Less than a year ago Lewiston held a local option election un- er its charter and the vote was favor able to the licensed saloon by about. two to one. With the exception of Pierce City, here two saloons are conducted, and the stage stations of Waha and and Forest, here roadhouses are licensed, the entire saloon business of Nes Perce County is conducted In Lewiston, the remainder of the county being within the boundaries the Xez Perce Indian Reservation, here the sale of liquor is prevented by Government treaty with the Indians. For several years the citizens of the Clearwater and prairie sections have anted county division, but Lewiston ftp uence has generally been attributed as responsible for the defeat of the division ans. It is stated now the people in the outside country have the trump card as long as they refrain from calling the local option election. Canadian Wood Pulp Hit. WASHINGTON. Aug. 28. Rulings on H Brimlnlarnitinn tt r,t1l,tnrv rm visions of the Payne tariff law. direct ed at the wood pulp and print paper Industry of Canada, were issued by the Treasury Department Friday. It is directed that If any province forbids the exportation of wood pulg. additional amy 01 one-ten tn or a cent per pound should be levied on print paper valued at 3 cents per pound or less, which comes from that province. and a duty of one-twelfth of a cent per pound should be assessed on mechani cally ground wood pulp coming from uch a province, and which will be oth rwlse aMmitted free of duty under the general provisions of the law. There la still pendlnr in the English law court a case which was initiated to 1707. i The past'eentury has witnessed wonderful progress in the science of medicine and surgery. Discoveries "for the amelioration of pain and the:ure of afflicted men, undreamed of years ago, are now in use by the specialist who has kept himself abreast with the rapid advancement of the medical profession. This applies only to the specialist who was well prepared by ad vantages of study and experience in a chosen field of medicine.. It is unfortunate that all specialists who go by the name are not competent to do the work entrusted to them, hence the many failures that are made. , Years ago doctors were supposed to charge as much for failures as for good results, but it is different with the up-to-date specialist of today, and my fee is a mere pittance compared with the results 'every patient receives in exchange. A man said the other day, "I would have come to you sooner but there are so many quacks and unreliables I have been afraid to try." Of course there are quacks and fakirs in every line of business from Portland, Me., to Portland, Or., and always will be, but because there are counterfeit coins in existence are 'yon never to ac cept money on any account for fear of fraud ? . You don't have to accept the statements of every doctor you go to see.- It's strange that men will" take so much for granted. If banks did business that way there would be failures every day. For 31 years The St. Louis Medical Co., has been located at present address, over 27 years longer than any competitor in Portland. I have the most complete . offices and my ' practice is double that of any other specialist in Portland. My references are the best banks and a generation of cured men. Nature has taken as much pains in forming the body of the ordinary citizen as an emperor, and you should be as careful with yours as an emperor is withhis. Science of the present age has made it possible for you to get as good treatment at nominal cost as an emperor, re gardless of cost, and there are times when your system is as hungry for the right kind of medicines as for food. . By the latest and best methods I cure, to remain cured, Nervousness, Blood Poison, Skin Diseases, Sores and Ulcers, Varicose or Knotted Veins, Kidney and Bladder Diseases, Rheuma tism, Catarrh and Indigestion. I cover the entire field of Nervous, Blood and Skin Diseases, and cure to stay cured forever. If you take any Treatment, why not get the best to be had anywhere? The best will cost you no more.

Some Superstitious Remedies Used Sow as Centuries Ago, Though ' Hospitals Do Their Best. SHANGHAI. Aug. 28.-(SpeciaI.) Much Is beard In these days of the awakening of China and undoubtedly progress is being mad in various directions. But medical science, as it is knowtt to tne native practitioner, remains pretty much in the condition described in the me moirs of Le Conte, published in the 17th century. In urging the need for tnorougngoing reform, the North China Herald points out that for centuries medical knowledge has been at a standstill and that tne noDuIatlon has been at the mercy of ig norant charlatans who pass themselves off as djoctors. 'In spite of over half a century of close contact with Europeans." says, the Her ald, "the Chinese doctor of today re mains Ignorant of the rudiments of anat omy and physiology and has the most ludicrous notions of the functions of the internal organs and the causes of disease. He pretends to determine the treatment and prognosis of every ailment by feeling the pulse alone, and ascribes seve'ral pulses to each arm and Infinite variations to each pulse. Each pulse is supposed to show the condition of some particular organ of the body and all the pulses may vary at the same time." Diseases are attributed to occult in fluences of the most absurd kind ana reliance is usually placed upon the quan tity rather than the quality of the medi cine swallowed. Thus doses may vary from 30 to 40 pills and a pint to even a quart of liquid. The disgusting nature of many of the medicines employed is a matter of general knowledge. Surgery, as tne word is unaersiooa in wesiern lands, is unknown, and boils and similar afflictions, instead of being opened and drained, are closed by the unsightly pitch plasters which are such a common sight in the streets or native cities. Mission hospitals are making noble ef forts to supply the deficiency and in nearly every one the foreign doctors are grievously overworked. The amount of good done by these institutions can hard ly be exaggerated, although the Chinese are slow to appreciate the value of their services. There is an inveterate preju dice against foreign doctors. So great the antipathy to the surgeon s craft that post-mortem examinations ar not allowed. An inquest upon the suspected victim of a crime Is usually the merest farce, the tests used by the native prac titioners seldom revealing the real cause of death. The Herald urges that hospitals be established In every city in the empire, and suggests that the refuges for the cure of opium victims which have been opened all over China might be utilized for the care of the sick and the training of students. At present -China is at the mercy of every wave of infectious dis ease. . Each epidemic of cholera, plague, smallpox and other disease smites down thousands who might escape by observing the simplest sanitary precautions or by receiving, proper medical attention. In spite of this fact, no effort is being made by China herself to face the problem. Cripple Creek Has Pitch-Blende. CRIPPLE CREEK. Colo., Aug:. 2S. Immediately folowini? the announce ment by Thomas F. Walsh, the million aire mining- man, that he had deposited a substantial sum with the School of Mines at Golden, Colo, to defray the expenses of testing samples of ore be lieved to be pitch-blende, comes the declaration by Carl Hextus. a well known prospector of the Cripple Creek district, that pitch-blende ore can be found in paying quantities near this city., as samples found sometime ago have been pronounced genuine by experts. JOHNSON CANNOT DRIVE Color Line Drawn at Tanforan Even for So-called Champion. SAN FRANCISCO. Aug. 28.-John Ar thur Johnson, world's champion heavy weight pugilist and automobile speed maniac, will not drive a car in the forth coming 300-mile automobile race at Tan foran track, San Francisco. A report which originated in Los An geles while the black champion was in the South last week, and which has gained circulation in San Francisco within the past few days, to the effect that Johnson had entered his car In the contest for the $2500 Hotel St. Francis trophy, and would drive it himself, is denied by Charles S. Bougher, president of the California Motor Racing Association, under whose auspices the race will be run. Mr. Bough er, In discussing the rumor yesterday, said: "We have had many Inquiries during the past few days regarding a report that has been persistently circulated to the effect that Jack Johnson, the colored pugilist, had entered his automobile In the 300-mile race that this association is to conduct at Tanforan on September 5, and that ha would drive the car himself. There is ab solutely no truth in the report that John son has entered a car in the race, nor has he made application to do so, al though I have been reliably informed that he was contemplating such action. Should he do so, it will be rejected." Roller Explodes; Two Dead. CARTHAGE, Mo., Aug. 28.

It Is there fore Impossible for any Individual to master the treatment of all human Ills. The man who attempts to do so Is able to cure only the most Bimple ailments. The ordinary physician Is like the man who attempts to master every branch 'of mechanics. from -watchmaking to shipbuilding. Such a man becomes neither a good watchmaker nor a successful shipbuilder. The general medi cal practitioner knows as much aboat one disease as he does about another- and he has no Intimate knowledge of any. The cures he performs when he la fortunate enough to cure are usually purely accidental. Ths patient gets well, not kM of the phy sician's efforts, hut In n thMm. When the ordinary physician treats men's diseases. DR TAYI-OR, HB RARELY EFFECTS A CUBE. The Leadlns Specialist. I AM A SPECIALIST IN MAIN'S AILMENTS. My practice is confined wholly to the ailments of men, and the fact that 1 invariably cure every case that I accept for treatment PROVES that my methods are correot. Indeed, I have for twenty-five years made a specialty of men's ailments and have so closely studied them that I am able to meet every phase and oonditlon of each individual case, and to effect a permanent cure in a very short time. I am never for a moment in doubt as to my course. I know Just WHAT to do and . HOW to do it, to obtain satisfactory RESULTS. This explains why my practice has grown to be by far the iaxgest la the western part of America. So confident am I that I can effect a thorough and LASTING CURES In each case that I accept for treatment, that T will give a Written and Binding CJ UARANTEB TO CCRE YOU, AND YOU NEED NOT PAY MB A DOLLAR UNTIL YOU ARB WELL. " Bear in mind that I could not afford to do this if I did not KNOW that my treatment would not fail. I am the only doctor who dares to make such a proposition. Under no circumstances do I ever take easel for treatment that are doubtful. Hence, if I accept your case for treat ment you may absolutely rely upon It that I will cure you. MY -METHODS ARE ORIGINAL. My methods are entirely original with me. and are the result of many years of special study and experience. Instead of filling my pa tients up with powerful drugs and stimulants, as do other specialists, I apply soothing, healing and absorbent medicines DIRECTLY to the DISEASED REGION, and thus aid Nature in overcoming the trouble. The best that human skill can do is to ASSIST NATURE. It is Nature that performs the cures. Powerful drugs taken through the stomach do not ran. They merely set up a new disturbance in the system, which, for -a time, diverts the energies from the old disease to the new attack. This Frocess is invariably attended with a reaction, and in consequence leaves tie patient in a worse condition than before treatment. Another method employed by another class of physicians is to dose the sufferer with tonics, which exhilarate the patient so that he actually believes himself Improving under such treatment. But after a very short time these stimulant medicines cease producing the desired effect, when the dis ease gains a new and' firmer grip upon the patient. ' HOW I CURE. , My method of treatment overcomes Inflammation and congestion by aiding the tissues of the diseased region to throw off the poisonous secretions and the deadly toxins caused by disease. Some of these toxins are more poisonous than the virus of the rattlesnake's fang. Thousands of the cases of sudden death which occur with alarming frequency In every city In the land, are directly due to toxic poison, al though such cases are usually pronounced "heart failure' or heart dis ease. My treatment completely eliminates every trace of disease and accumulated poisons from the system, and thus allows Nature to perfect a .COMPLETE CURE. DO NOT BE DECEIVED. My methods have revolutionized the treatment of ailments peculiar to men, and consequently altered former medical theories. Imitators of my system of practice have sprung up everywhere. A pronounced success In any field of human endeavor begets imitators. Following the Genuine, there always come the Counterfeit. These imitators of mine insist that they cure by means similar to those I employ. Such statements are uttered with a base Intent to deceive. The facts are that NO OTHER PHYSICIAN ANYWHERE TREATS MEN'S AILMENTS BY MY METHODS. My treatment is the ORIGINAL and ONLY GEN UINE Direct-Method Treatment for the Diseases of Men. . MY MODERN and up-to-date methods effect a certain and speedy cure Of CONTRACTED AILMENTS, SPECIFIC BLOOD POISON, NERV OUS DEBILITY, PROSTATIC TROUBLES, and all reflex aliments.
