POPULAR NORTH BEACH. KOseourg feopie yiii nnu mis an Ideal Recreation Resort. Many Roseburg people have decided to spend their vacation at Popularorth Beach, at the mouth of the Columbia. Leaving Portland (daily except Sunday and Monday) on the 0. R. & X. Co.'s pal-.ial Steamer T. J. Totter queen of river boats five hours are consumed in making the trip to Astoria, the scenery including all that is beautiful, and through the great salmon fishing waters of the Lower Columbia. After a short t at Astoria, the steamer is off for Ilwaco, on Baker's Bay, where the pas sengers board the train waiting and are ifcoon off for Xorth Beach, the popular summer resort of the North Pacific coast. iJuring the trip from Ilwaco the first tood view of the Pacific is secured, the "train running along the ridge of the beach within two hundred yards of the breakers. The beach is twenty-seven miles long, two hundred yards wide at low tide, and so hard that carriage wheels scarcely leave a mark. It is an ideal place for driving, riding, wheel ing, or walking, and the surf bathing is xmsurpassed. The excellent hotels and boarding places provide good ac commodations at prices ranging from one dollar to three dollars per day. The round trip rate from Portland to Astoria is ?2.50; to Ocean Beach points $4.00, good until October 15th. On Sat urdays, during July an August, round trip tickets are sold to beach points at 12.50, good for return leaving the beach the following Sunday evening. Meeting of Prune Association.

NO PREMIUM TICKETS GIVEN ON GOODS SOLD AT SALE PRICES. FISHER & BELLOWS COMPANY Cattlemen are Armed. Reports coming from Cheyenne Wyo., are to the effect that a battle between troops and armed cattlemen is believed to be imminent in Big Horn County. Sheriff Fen ton and Deputies left Ther mopolis for Basin at 8 o'clock yesterday with his prisoner, Jim McCloud, charged with the murder of B. Myrick. a flockm aster. The party is escorted by the Basin Light- Battery of 40 men, under Captain Price. It is reported that a large force of cattlemen have fixed an ambuscade on Cottonwood Creek, 25 miles from Thermopolis, and will en deavor to rescue McCloud and assist him out of the country. The state troops at Lander, Buffalo, Sheridan and other near-hy points have been ordered to hold themselves in readi ness to take the field at a moment's notice. The annual migration of toads from Lake Ewauna to Upper Klamath Lake began last week, according to the Klamath Falls Express. There are mil lions of them. They cover the walks and streets in the vicinity of the river and it is not easy to avoid stepping on them. Their natural home is Upper Klamath Lake and they are instinctive ly drawn thither. This is the explana sion: The spawn is deposited in the upper lake and floats down the river and lodges among the tulles in the lower i lat-o Tim mnmunt thfly nrp. hatrfipd bey note the strange surroundings and their little pericardiums flap and flutter for the hallowed precincts of home. Thus, simultaneously inspired, all start for the upper lake as fast as their dim inutive legs will carry them. These millions of toads are highly beneficial in destroying atomicimpurities and so con tribute to the health of the climate.

Uncle Sam's childicn urink consider able stuff of one kind and another that does not "flow from the well," and they are paying a good, round sum for these beverages. The exact amount cannot be stated, since there is no record of the receips of retail establishments, nor can the first cost, that is the price received annually by manufacturers, be accurat ely 6tated, through a writer in a tem perance paper claims that in 1902 the first cost of liquor consumed in the United States was in excess of 1300,000, 000. In that year the total production of all kinds of distilled liquors was 12S- 563,200 gallons, and the production of wine was 24,306,000 gallons. The malt liquor produced, according to the Brew ers' Journal, in the fiscal year ending Jnne 30, was, aproximately, 33,000,000 barrels.
