For several years I was in such wretched health that life was almost a burden. I could hardly walk across the floor, was so feeble. Several of our best physioians attended me, but failed to help.

THREE DAILY TRAINS BETWEEN OGDEN AND DENVER. The increase in transcontinental travel by way of Salt Lake City in con sequence of the scenic and other attrac tions of the route, has recently justified the Rio Grande Western Railway in connection with the Denver Rio Grande and Colorado Midland Railroads says the Salt Lake Tribune, in estab lishing a triple daily last passenger service between Ogden and Denver. All of these trains are equipped with the latent appliances, improvements and cars. This road now operates through sleepers between Chicago, Ogden snj Kan Francisco, also a perfect dining car service. Send 2c postage for literature, rates or other information to J. D.

She Advice to the Collerre Ora4 Htw If Ton Htmmt the Poaitioa Tow Moot Do the Work Better thaw the Uneducated Most Ahead of Tow. "When you go out from school said Gov. Leslie M. Shaw, of Iowa, in re cent address to the students ot North western University at Evanstou, 111., "you will find the other fellow,' aa Sato Jones says. He has aot been to college, but he Is occupying the place which you want, and he Is four years ahead ot you. He will stay there, toot unless the training you get In college better pre pares you for his place." , This Is a plain statement of an indis putable fact, and one whjch jrollege stu; dents should commit to memory. A mere college training will not enable iny one of them to get "the other fel low's Job unless the training the grad uate has secured is of the practical kind, which makes him better fitted for the place than the man Without. a col lege education, who holds- It. He will not be able to secure the place on his' ulploma, on his standing In his -class, on his fraternity affiliations, on bis good looks, his good clothes, or even his good recommendations, and If by chance he ihall obtain a position on the strength ot these he will not be able to hoM It It he does not possess In an equal dOgree the merit which enabled 'the other fel low to make his way without any of these advantages. Everything else being equal, the young man who Is fortunate enough to inter upon a career in these days with 1 college education has an advantage j ever the other fellow, but he. cannot tfford to rest or play upon that advant age tor a moment If be .depended upon It to carry him through, the other fellow wUl pass him In the race., If a person can do one thing and do It wetl he will be worth something" said Gov. Shaw. "It makes no difference what you do, as long as you do it better tbsn It has ever been done before. There is 10 risible opening in any line yob might elect On the other hand, there Is a splendid opening If yon can try a case better than any other attorney. There sre many attorneys, but not so many lawyers; many pedagogues, but few teachers; many medical men, but few Sectors. One-fourth of the lawyers In Chicago can try a case no better now than when they began,, and all through Wisconsin there are women who can cook no better than they could the day they were married, and they are told so three times a day. The world Is ready to pay any price for excellence. The lifflculty with the average man and the rest of them Is that they do not pay enough attention to detail No matter what profession you master, you must also master detail All this is true. It is so demonstra bly and palpably true that recognition f its truth has revolutionised the sys tem of higher education In this country within the past twenty-five years. It was In response to the demand that the Mlleges should turn out graduates' with tome fixed purpose In mind, with some special training, with something like in equipment that would enable them to compete with the other fellow, and, possible, excel him,' that Harvard, fale, Princeton, Williams, Cornell and )ur Western universities adopted whol ly or in part the principles which ob tained exclusively In purely technologi cal Institutions only a few years ago. The danger for a time was that the reaction In favor of the practical branches of education as against the cultural might go too far, and it Is to the credit of the faculties of the Massa chusetts Institute of Technology In Boston and Armour Institute of Tech nology In Chicago that the danger was svolded. As the purely cultural col leges have exhibited a tendency to be come more practical the purely tech. steal Institutions have exhibited even t stronger tendency to' become' taore jultursJ, so that the latter are equip ping their students to-day, not only for the inevitable hand-to-hand encounters with the other fellows, but for the Higher places in life for which their ;ollege training qualifies them. The college students of our times. It s cheerful to know, are having the doc Brines enunciated by Gov. Shaw ground Into them on all sides. They are made to realize now that they cannot step jut of a university Into a big legal or medical practice. Into a dally newspa per editorial chair, into the presidency of a bank, or to the forefront Id any walk of life, Just because they gradu ate with honors. They are being taught now that, while education gives them a tremendous advantage, nothing short of actual contact with the sharp cor ners and actual experiences In the hurly-burly of life will finally enable them to compete with the other fellow. He Is npt only four years ahead of them he may be twenty he often Is In prac tical knowledge, and he will always re main about that far In advance of the man who thinks he has nothing more to learn when he bids good-by to bis alma mater, Chicago Inter Ocean. An Arisona Bill of Fare. "I was at a restaurant out In Arlxpna nce," said a salesman for a well known revolver corporation, "and was looking over the bill of fare.

( It Is In Sicily that both poverty and crime have reached their most porten tous development. Here, again, we find diverse strains of blood, language and tradition, and an Unfortunate historic development We cannot, Indeed, ex plain the social facts of Sicily in our time without reference to" the 'past. Centuries of turbulence and misgovern rtwnt produced a condition, of attain la which every man's hand was against (very other man's, and In which, lite tea of Just and impartial law becom ing weak, the Inevitable alternative ot the rude Justice of revenge became widespread, la our dny. with the pos sible exception of some of the outlying districts of European Russia. Sicily Is t,b poorest part of Europe. The ages earned In the sulphur mines and the horrible condition of the people em ployed therein have been so compli-t-ly exposed that it la not necessary to dwell thereon. SuhVe It to say that with the factors of wretched poverty and a long historical tra'n'ng lu crime, superadded to a quick Moodetl, violent people, we may understand the growth and power lu Sicily of that murderous soctHty, the Mafia, which the Ita'lan government Is now attacking In ear nest at Measlna. The Mafia Is to all In tents and purposes a murderous organ isation, which sticks at nothing to se cure its ends. But formally, and on one side. It Is a klud of mutual benefit society. Its members sre bound to pro tect and benefit one another under giv es conditions, or pay the dread penalty tor failure or neglect.-Spectator. Henry Fielding was ence asked by Lord IVnblgb why he wrote his name "Flowing" instead of "FelWIng," as his lordship's family used. "I can not tell my lo.d," replied the novelist, "ex cept It be that my branch of the fam ily were the first that knew how to spell." S.r Robert Pee! was once going through a picture eo lection with a friend where there was a portrait of a protriinent Englishman who was fa mous for saying sharp things. "How wonderfully like." said the friend; "you can see the quiver on his llivs "Yes," replied Sir Kobert, "and tut ar rows coming out of it." They are telling a story in Chicago about an advance agent tor the Thomas Orchestra who recently went to New Orlesns to book dates for concerts. He was told that It would be well for htm first to talk the matter over with a wealthy woman who Is a lender In the musical circle s ot the city. So he called at her residence, and a ring brought out an old negro, who took the caller's card, on which printed the legend, "Representing the Thomas Orchestra." Presently a young woman came to the door holding the card In her band. She did not seem to understand the object of the call The agent a.tempttd to explain, but was cut short by the young woman, who said: "I don't think we want any music to-Jay." The president of a manufacturing firm in Chicago has two letters from a man In Michigan. The first set foith thc.t the writer had settled upon a piece of land that had "rite smart p'.n tlm bur on It;" that his neighbors, with the exception of "sum trench Canucks at the nort end of the lak," had also "rte smart'' of timber, and would hall the advent of a "sormll" with delight "How mutch wood a smoi sormll cost? N. B. If a Frenchman name Ike Lamor to rites you to ask about this hese no gud and a ded beat of the first water." The firm wrote back to Inform their correspondent that a sawmill such as he fie?med to want would cost about three hundred dollars. A catalogue was inclosed, which would give him an idea of the plant, and the firm hoped to be favored with bis order. The firm bad no Idea that Its letter would give seri ous offense. There was no doubt, bow ever, that the Michigan man was quite annoyed. He wrote: "You must take me tor a fool.

Tin negotiations last ed for some time. One evening the Londoner, wbo war staying at the same hotel having spent many hours with Mr. Kruger and his companion, went to bed much exhausted, and feel ing he had not got quite all he wanted. Next morning he arose at nine o'clock, and went along the corridor to Mr. Kruger's bedroom. To bis astonish ment It was empty, and all the luggage was gone. "Oh, sir," said the cham bermaid, "Mr. Kruger and his friend left at six this morning." Then, with a giggle of amused reminiscence, the girl added: "They was a queer couple, sir, and no mistake. When 'e passed your door, .sir, Mr. Kruger, 'e started dancln' right outside your door, sir, e and his friend. They didn't know as any one saw them, sir, but Bessie and I see them, unbeknown, from the too of the stairs. Then they went downstairs, sir, fairly splittln' their sides with laugliln', though' they didn't ssy a word." During ail advance In Manila recent ly, says the Chicago Tribune, one com pany had to lie down at the side of the road for shelter from the well-directed volleys of the Insurgents. One of the privates had dropped his haversack In the middle of the road away back, and, after the company bad laid 'down, be calmly stood up and walked down the road toward the loHt ' haversack. He made a fine target for the Insurgents, and the bullets rattled around him pretty lively. "Here, come back here, O'Melley," yelled the lieutenant of the company; ."you'll be killed." "Well" replied O'Malley over bis ffhoulder, "I might Jest as well be killed as have Gen. Otis a-runnln' me up hill and down dale and comln' over to me bouse Ivery mornin' aud a-snyln', 'O'Malley, why don't you pny the government for that haveysack?' " Then he calmly walked on and got the lost piece of property, and as be came back and sat down Just In time to escape a volley of Mausers, he threw the haversack on the ground and said: "And when he does come to-morrow mornin' to me house I'll say, 'Otis, me little man, you're dead wrong. I never lost no haveysack. There's your bloody old potato bag. Take It to the Government with me compliments.' " It isn't so much what a man thinks ! ha what be dues that counts, ALASKA BOUNDARY.

The American members of the Inter national commission appointed to sur vey and mark out ths Alaska boundary lint at Lynn canal, under the modus Vivendi, arrived in Seattle from Wash ington, and wil proceed to Victoria, where they will meet the two British members ot the commission.

They are lathering statistics aud infortnstiou hers ooucerniug the umtter they have in hand. Mr. Tiilman said it would requite probably two months to com plete the survey. The line will be marked with the usual monuments, stakes, eto. On Chilkoot aud White passes, monuments of a permanent char acter will be set up, so that there may be no possible dispute at these points as to the exact location of the line. "We are simply to ascertain the lo cation and mark out for the guidance ot all persons the line established by the modus viveudl between l,nglHUl and the United States," said Mr. Til man. "This line was agreed to iu Oc tober, 1899, after several mouths of ne gotiation. It is by no menus a per manent or established boundary hue beyond the terms and life of the modus vivendt. Our work will be necessarily technical and not diplomatic, although we are operating under the direction, in this instance ot the department ot state, at Washington. The distance to be surveyed is about 25 tulles." Mr. Tilmau expects to begin sctive work in the field about June 15. He and Mr. French will meet the Cana dian commisioners at Victoria. They are W. F. King and J. L. MoArthur. A patty ot about 13 men will be taken along to assist in the field work. The expenses ot the survey are to be shared equally by the two countries. Norihwasl Notes. Stats Senator Charles W. Fulton, of Astoria, Or., has accepted the invita tion extended to him to deliver the Fourth ot July oration iu Pendleton. The warehouses at The Dalles, have already received about 1,500,000 pounds of wool, and it is pouring in rapidly from all points of the compass. The good road from Snmpter to Gran ite will be constructed under the direc tion of E. J. Godfrey. It will cost $5,000 or $8,000 and will be a credit to that section. Ths $1,000 bond issued by the Ham ilton school district, Grant County, Or., commanded a premium of $12. The bond bears 6 per cent interest and is payable in 20 years. William E. McClure, formerly of Engene, and a University of Oregon alumnus, will be graduated this year from the department of law, Columbia university, Washington, D. C. What are the Oregon boys coming to? aaks the Albany Democrat. John U. Hammond, a Europe young man, is do ing the villain in a "Sapbo" company doing the New England states. J. T. Rorick last week cut a fluid of rye on the old Frank Taylor place across the river from The Dalles, Or., tbat averaged in height six feet and eight inches. Mr. Rorick says it beat any rye crop be ever saw. A new tube boiler has been sent down to Seaside, Or., to replace the large one now being used by the saw mill there. A 7,000 gallon water tank is being erected by the company near the box factory, and wilt afford ample protec tion in case of fire. Day Bros, have commenced work 00 their saw mill at Cascade Locks, and, when completed, it will saw 60,000 feet a day. They will get their logs on the other side of the rivei, one log ging camp being near Stevenson, and auother will be put in at Wind river. The prospect of a large crop of mel ons in Yakima county, Wash., is not as bright aa might be desired. The seeds having rotted, necessitate! re planting, aud the cool spell has not helped to develop a healthy growth; it is predicted the corp will be short and prices high. The experiments that have been car ried on by the O. R. & N. with brome grass and on the arid lands in the vi cinity of TeloBttnte, south of Union, Or., have shown that the new grass will grow luxuriantly on the dry and al most barren hills. A considerable quantity of seed will be sown this year. The steamer Signal was chartered by the Pioneer Western Timber Company for Cape Nome, and the vessel left South Vend for that point. J. D, Dyer is manager of the enterprise. It is proposed to start a lumber yard at Noma and supply it from South Bend or Knappton. A part of the cargo con sisted of 400,000 feet of lumber for buildings and since boxes. Fire broke out in the dry kilu of the Addison mill plant at Tacoma last week. The firemen confined the fire to the building in which it originated, but as that building contained the ma chinery, the mill will have to shut down for repairs. The loss is $15,000, while the insurance is but $4,500, leav ing a net loss of $10,500, The com pany will rebuild at once. H. J. Snively, J. H. Visslers and J. M, Baxter, have leased 1,200 acres of land on Toppenish creek, eight miles from Toppenish station, in Yakima county, Wash., and have seeded 400 acres to wheat, 90 to millet, 10 to field peas, 800 to barley and 850 to oats. It is their intention later on to engage in dairying and stockraising and most of the land will be devoted to timothy, They have contracts with the Indian owners of the land for a 10 years' lease, and believe the contracts are binding, ' ; Jack Salisbury and A.

Brnditreai'a says; Readjustments of price quotations to meet the changed condition of supply aud demand are till the leading features of ths general trade. In volume the busluess doing is ot a between -season character, im provement in some lines being counter balanced by increased dullness lu other tiranohes. That the basic conditions of the trade are in the main of a favorable nature, however, is proved by the oou tinned good railroad earnings returns which come to baud. The fact seems to be that the volume ot business offer ed the transportation interests of the country continues considerably in ex cess of a year ago. Crop reports are relatively nut favorable aa regards corn aud oats. In the Southwest, wheat crop prospects are still main tained at a high average. In tin) Northwest wheat has beeti helped by late rains, but owing to their late ar rival it is uol cvrtniu bow much bene fit was obtained thereby. The liund-to nioutli domestic demand for imn and steel continues, but tbu number of small orders received riuuthnru pig and steel rails note most inquiry. The situation In the pipe market is no better, aud plates are weaker. Concessions of fractious of a dollar are apparently easily obtained for pig Iron, but throughout the trade the feeding is rather mote cheerful, the feeling being that lower prices will on the one hand encourage consumptive demands, aud, on the other hand, tend to restrict pnuluvtlou by less economi cal plants.
