News Notes.
, t. B. Gorham general agent of the
Rock Xtland has returned home from
an extended business trip in and
around Salt Lake City. "They are busy
there; men are .continually on the hustle
and everything seems to be in a most
prosperous condition. I believe that the
whole Western country Is experiencing a
tnost phenomenal "period of prosperity
and growth.
- "Not only in Salt Lake but In every
Section where T was 'there is a remarka
ble amount of business being; done but I
am proud to say that right here In Port
land we are as well off as anywhere else.
We are not behind any of them in the
Volumn or business or the general pros
perous condition. I find that in that sec-
tion they have a most flattering- opinion
of us and consider that this is the coming
section. ,
1'The entire country there is stirred up
over the proposed Bait Lake and Coos
Bay road, . They , are mora than enthus
iastic and are doing everything in their
power to help the matter along. The
r
agitation in Salt Lake Is something im.
mensem Business men are continually
talking about It and are willing to go
dowrf heavy .to make the project a suc
cess." Every effort is being put forth that
Utah shall carry out its duty in having
the road built and they are hoping that
Oregon will not be wanting.
I think the road will be a great help
to. this section as It opens up a new
country. frhvrproposed line of the road is
not directly in opposition to any trans
continental road and opens up a section
that is almost undeveloped. Salt Lake
will derive great benefit,, from the line
as well as the country through which It
traverses' and the 'business men are seai-
ous that it should be completed,
"I want to say that Portland is the
only place In which to live and a man is
a heaven born idiot who would leave here
to live elsewhere. The climate here Is so
much better than any section I have yet
visited that I do not want anything else
in the "Climate line."

WERLELN ON DOGS.
County Treasurer Werelln said this
morning, when a man left his wicket
after" "paying a dog license for Judge
Bellinger:
"Now that the license for dogs Is 13
and bitches 15 we are selling more tags
than used to go out when the license
was 51.50 and $3. Every year we sell
more tsgs than, we did on the preceding
one. This year we are starting off very
briskly. It Is amusing to see some of
the canines who follow their masters Into
this t'fhce. There wss a boy came In
here this morning with a little mangey
mongrel at his heels and placed 16 be
fore me and asked for a tag. No one on (
earth would give 16 cents for the dog
In' fact I "doubt if anyone would accept
the cur as a gift But when one becomes
attached to an animal I guess it Is worth
15 to them."

Ordinary falling eyesight .Is by some regarded as alsrmlng; by others
treated too carelessly. All eyes begin to fall at 40 years of age. Some
. have troubles a year or two before that time, the majority not till after.
Ninety per cent of eye troubles are due to putting off the use of glasses
after failure begins or to the wearing of wrong ones.

Edward La belle, alias Louis Stone, an
alleged murderer, was placed in tbe city
Jail Wednesday night for safe keeping;
during the period between the arrival of
the Bouthern Pacific train and the de
purture of the Northern Pacific for the
Sound.
The prisoner was in charge of Police
Captain Welch, of the Northwest Mount
fid Police, of Yukon territory. Mr. Welsh
was a former resident of Portland, and
Was for a number of years a- defective on
the local police force.
Lunelle was captured in an obscure
railroad grader's camp in Nevada. He
is being taken to Dawson, to be tried for
complicity in the murder of Leon Bouth
lllette and Ouy Joseph .Beaudern, on the
Yukon River, near Stewart, last June.
Peter Fournelr, a partner of Labelle,
was arrested at Dawson, about a week
ngo for a share in the crime. The men
re gambling-bouse boosters, who have
bad reputations and have been under
the eyes of the Canadian officials for the
Pat year. When the river opened last
spring they were given the "blue paper"
and left for the outside.
On reaching White Horse, the boosters
met the two men who were murdered.
All were French Canadians,. They be
came acquainted. It was teamed that
the men who were going down the river
had considerable money with them. Four
nelr and Labelle changed their plans, and
returned down the stream with the men
who were en route for the gold fields. '
, Several weeks later, the bodies of
tBouthlllette and Beaudern were found on
a bar In the river. The former was per
forata by three bullets and the latter
had the top of his head missing, with a
rope attached to his left wrist and ankle,
which had evidently been used to tie a
stone to the body, so that it would sink
and remain hidden on the river bed.
The anchor became unfastened by the
action of the water and the body was
washed up on a shoal by the swift cur
rent. 1,'jjon discovering the evidence of
crime rigid Investigation was made in
that locality, and the other man was
Pshed out of a place in the stream where
the water was shallow enough to see the
bottom.
It was learned at White Horse by the
Canadian secret service men, from a boat
builder, that Fournelr had purchased a
boat from him, and left theje with the
other three men. Also that Bouthillette
had drawn 11,100 'from a bank at that
point. -Upon he arrest of Fournehr, at
Dawson, 1100 in Quebec bank notes which
were identified as having been paid to
the former were found on his person.
The police from the beginning were un
usually active in the ease. No money or
effort was spared to bring the perpetra
tors of the bloody deed to Justice. Clew
after clew was followed before they se
cured the evidence necessary and suc
ceeded In arresting both of the men. La
belle had disappeared but his trail was
followed step by step, until he was finally
run down on a desert of Nevada.
The murders were In many respects
similar to those of. Christmas day, 1900,
when Clayson, Relfe and Olsen disap
peared on the trail near Mlnto. Clayson
was a well known Portland man who was
returning from a trading trip to the
Klondike. The bodies were not found un
til the following summer. They had been
ahot and r thrown into the river through
hole in the ice.
The Candaian officials spent over $100,000
and 16 months of time before O'Brien, an
ex-conVict went to the gallows for the
most terrible crime In the history of the
North. The securing of the evidence for
his conviction, required 94,000 miles of
travel by the different officers engaged on
the case.
It will be remembered that the notorious
Kid West who is well known in Portland,
was taken from the penitentiary at Wal
la Walla, to Dawson to give evidence
against O'Brien, and that international
legal complications were narrowly avert
ed over the proceeding. West was par
doned for his part in the case. His lib
erty was, -however, of short duration. Af
ter being out only a week, he with some
others were caught in Seattle for holding
up a man and nearly beating him to
death.
The W. "-. V. organisation is emi
nently one that keeps its face well set to
the front and Interests Itself in tbe ac
complishment of. the present need rather
than living in the past. But once a year
they cast a glance back to pick up the
threads. This retrospectfor the central
W. C, x. U. took place Wednesday after
noon. : v ... .-
The treasurer's report revealed, a heat-
iy financial condition. Officers were all
re-elected, save the president who de
cllned the honor. Mrs. 11. Y. Townsend,
who waa elected to the office, is an old
white ribboner and has the qualities of
leadership which gives promise of suc
cess to the work the coming year.
The work of the union being mainly
educational and preventative, there was
but comparatively few reports of drun
kards reclaimed, although this was not
wanting, especially in the reports of
prison and Jail work. The work of this
latter superintendent, In mainly in the
city and county Jails, meetings being
held in one each Sabbath during the
year. .
The superintendent reports 25 hopeful
conversions during the year.
The work in this department does not
close. when the men have been dis
charged, but , realising that the first day
out with 'the burden of dlsgraea and
shame npon them, home lex and days of
unusual temptation,, it is the custom to
ilve support and" encouragement until
such time as these men can find employ
ment. This has been extended riurln;
the past year to opening the homes of
Minuuin as speuers ror tnese un
fortunate men. The superintendent, hopes
that in tbe near future a permanent
place may be established for this work.
The last year has shown great strides
In sentiment In this matter. Altogether
the Central Union begins a new year un
der the most encouraging conditions and
Invites all women-) of Hke faith in the
home to clasp hands with them in thl
timely woman' work.
toi. ueoiesai will speak under W. C. T
l.. auspices aa a central union next Sun
day evening at the First Baptist Church
ro this and the next regular meeting o
the union at T, M. C. A. rooms, Septem
ner lYtn, all are Invited.

CANADA WHEAT CROP.
MONTREAL, Quebec Sept 5 Crop
reports received bythe Big milling com
panies which have their offices in this
city show that the wheat crop in the
Canadian Northwest is very heavy. The
harvesting is now Well under way and
weather conditions are reported favor
able. The yields conservatively esti
mated at 60,000,000 bushels.
ATHLETICS AND STYLE.
Athleticism has done a great dial for
dress. It' has brought us comfortable
woaring iipparel. If It were-43t for the
desire to appear wet! set up and thor
oughly athletic, men would never wair
the military short Jacket,- ' the loose,
turned-tip trousers, the heavy, Jow-cut
shoes, or the easy, comfortable leather
belts. ,
The college boy, who is always an ex
tremist in dress, appears better and is
nwre comfortably clad TTian' he tm ever
been. And this may also be said of the
staid business man. Comfort Is essential
in men's dress today more than it bs
ever been and that is due, primarily it
not entirely, to the fact that these ve
times when a man. to be any kind of
man at all. must be a patron ; or in
rctive follower of one of the loa'l out
door sport.--Chat.
A Phlladelphlan recently had occasion
to visit the chief physician of the asylum
for the Insane at Columbus, Ohio, and
was shown through the Institution by the
physician and the superintendent, who
told him many Interesting anecdotes
about the various inmates. One, an
Irishman from Steubenvllle, that state,
had been brought to the asylum at a time
when it was filled almost to Its capacity;
and the superintendent, turning to one of
the physicians, had asked:
"Doctor, what ward would we better
put this new man Into!" ,
The Irishman, recognising that he was
the new man referred to, spoke up .nd
said:
"Indade, an' I car-re very little what
war-rd yes put me Into so long as it bei
