DISTINGUISHED MEN.
Two distinguished English gentlemen
arrived in this city by the evening local
yesterday, and spent a few hoars visit
ing Amos Strong, says the Salem States
man. They were Lord Sudoley, of the
British peerage and A. L. Pearso, the
noted mining expert cf London.
Mr. Pearse is the gentleman who ex
amined the Quartzville district in 1805,
and it was upon bis report that the prop
erty was sold to the British syndicate.
The gentleman slated to a representative
of the Statesman last evening that the
Quartxville mining district was probably
a good one and the question whether or
not it would afford paying investments
would depend in a great measure on the
manner in which tae projierties at pres
ent being worked were handled. Mr.
Pearse has no fear but that the result of
the mining industry here will be emi
nently satisfactory.
Mr. Pearse was for a long time in the
employ of the Peruvian government, and
was the means of brinuinir about the re-
Lorms in the manner of operating that
country's silver mines, introducing mod
ern machinery and methods. Later he
operated on the South African gold
fields and now he is on his way from the
Trail Creek country, in British Colum
bia, to California, whence he goes across
tne comment on his return to his home
in the great metropolis of the world.
Prior to coming to the United States
and British Columbia on his last visit,
Mr. Pearse made an examination of the
gold mining, districts of Siberia. He
stated that in Russia both the European
and Asiatic parts of the empire were
coming to the front very rapidly and
that the government was anxious to have
foreign capitalists of enterprise come in
to the country. Western civilisation is
advancing very rapidly there and in a
few short years Kneaia will take her
p.ace among the leading civilized and
advauced nations on the globe. Mr.
Pearse visited Moscow during the recent
coronation of the czar, as he was at that
time on his way home from Siberia. He
slated that the ceremories and display
were gorgeous in the extreme, and that
the sight of the city of Moscow and the
Kremlin decorated in honor of Uie fes
tivities was one neve to be forgotten.
Mr. Pearse predict that Moscow will
he to Russia what Chicago is to the
I'm ted States, us mmm as the ruilroad
through Siberia reaches Vladivostok,
which will be in about two years, that
a'l the trade of the country will flow
through the city, and that in place ol be
fng tbe historic residence of tbe rulers
of Russia. Moscow wiy be a great, lively,
bustling trade center.

On the ThreeSisters.
The first trip to ihe Three Sisters this
year was ma le on August 14, by a party
of fourteen under the kindly guidance of

p. tn., making the trip in one day.
After visiting the glacier ten of the

special will be given for the amusement
of visitors. Frequent excursions, at ex
tremely low rates of fare, will be run on

Thb Eclipse. -One of the pretties1
eclipses ever seen in Oregon was that
Saturday night. It went into the
penumbra at 8:07 but it was not until i
bout 9 :30 that the eclipse proper began,
then the shadow of the eafth crept over
the surface ot the full round moon, slow
ly, until two thirds was covered. It was
nearly 2 o'clock when the shadow disap
peared and Luna sailed with nothing
but the face of tbe man upon her sur
face. This is the only eclipse of the year
risible in the US.

nrm. ana otner oraers are coming in
fast. Air. uiara win leave in a lew days
for tbe city, to close some contracts for
the entire output of the mines, after
which tbe mine will be put in first-class
working order and lively business will
ensue. It is expected a demand for 6.-
000 or 8000 tons will be made per month.
This means from $12,000 to sio.OUU per
month to come into tne Coquil'a valley.

1'agtic's U. S. Crop Report.
Harvesting of fall-sown wheat is about
over, threshing is in progress. The vields
reported are slightly more than expected,
bat yet not op to the average, as our cor
respondents report. " this is tbe poorest
wheat hardest in 44 years." Tne hot.
dry period in July caused the grain to
shrink. There are yields of lrotu 20 to
S3 bushels an acre reported. Jx-tne
spring grain baa been cut, but general
spring grain harvesting will not begin un
til mis wees, oats harvest will begin tbm
week, and the general opinioa of tbe
correspondents is that tbe yield will be
better than was expected. Some farmers
have commenced to work their summer
fallow. Hops are pro ing finely. Those
yards which have been given proper at
tention are generally better than usual.
There is not so much cttupSaict about
tbe bop louse as yeu
Corn is doing unusua'.Iy well, and will
make a better crop than tuaal. There is
never a very large corn production
in Oregon, seldom more than enough for
consumption. Vegetable continue to
make good growth. Potato will be
about an average crop; tbe rain of Au
gust savwd ail the late-planted potatoes.
Uarden stuff of all kinds is very plentiful.
The late peachee are npening and be-tr-g
shipped to market. There will be
tbe greatest shortage iu peaches and aii
k;nd of fruit on record, for the first
time in the history ol the country there
is a failure in the trait crop. It must not
lie understood that there is no frutt, bat
rather that the shipment b til not be so
large. There is on the whole, more than
enough for the local demand.

The New Hook Spoon Free to All
I read in the Christian Standard that
Miss A. M. Frita, Station A, St Louis,
Mo , would give an elegant plated book
SDOon to anyone sending ber ten 2 cent
stamps. I sent tor one and found it so
useful that I showed it to my friends,
and made $13.00 in two boar, taking
orders tor the spoon ihe book spoon
is a household necessity. It cannot slip
into the dish or cooking vessel, being
held in tbe place by a book on the baik.
The spoon is something that house
keepers pave needed ever since spoons
were first invented. Anyone can get a
sample spoon by sending ten 3-cent
stamp to Misa Frita. This is a splendid
way to make money aroana nome.

I lew days. I will mail sample of fruit
and complete directions, to any of your
readers, tor eighteen two-cent stamps.
