The Russians, he says, took out $.'.iHiii.iiiin of srohl last year from the placer deposits, and have not yet begun to work the rpinrtz. The milling method of ttie Russians are very crude. Mr NT-Cowan says, and ihi not compare with the American methods. , ' i'he exhaustive trip he nisde through Siberia has convinced Mr. McCowan that it is ill- richest unrleveloiM-d country on the globe, and. from an agricultural point, has greater possibilities than the' wheat and corn growing sections of the I'nlled States. Before many years have elapsed." says Mr McCowan. "Siberia will supply nil of FJurope with grain. Many wheat farms have already been opened, nnd the govern ment Is encouraging immigration from Kuropean Russia to this great and rich r .ninti'!'.

We anticipated success when we Inaug urated, our piano club organisation. We knew ii was too pood u thing for Ihe peo ple, and we knew- they would ipikkly recognize It. Hut that we should nu et with such a phenomena? rush Is a surprise that taxes our salespeople and drays to the limit. A sale we expected to lust well up to Thanksgiving now bills fair to close within the next two weeks. There are oiily four hundred pianos included in llie club plan, and one of the clubs was com pleted in less than ten days after the opening announcement. Yesterday among our Joiners was Mr. J. M. Nlckum, of Sellwood. who took superb Chickerfnjr: Captain Altw-rt Crowe, whose little daughter has circled the globe nine times. Who chtfse a handsome Sun Domiiitfo mahogany Weber, and Mr. W, J. Hill, who also showed his good Judgment by selecting a very fancy mahogany (the ,'amous Stsie 18) Weber. Eight other in struments wei-e sold In the city, and a number outside. THE PIANOS: The pianos we are Helling are the Kim ball, the Weber, ('bickering. Decker. Dull. V'ose, Lester, Hobart M. Cable, Haddorf and tnsny other handsome standard in ikes. Tne Plan of Selling Them Is This: We give to a hundred buyers the same pi ice we would give to wholesale buyers, am! the Instrument is delivered immedi ately upon your making your choice, with out any fuss or ceremony. The cash pay ments are all small, ami the Installments. saa,etw . wtukt ..vtther . wrvHUf or monthly.- are extremely moderate. Payments as little as $5. of) down and weeklv installments of $1.-5 secure one of our tine pianos in Club "A" to you at the wholesale figures and those Joining Club "D" will vhv S-'tt down with weekly in stallments of 2. Larger payments may be made, of course, and those paying cash will save the additional interest. THE ORGAN CLUBS Thcte are also two organ dubs, limited to but 100 members each. Club "OAV members secure a fine new organ by paying SI.OO down and weekly payment's of Ml cents. Members of Club "OB" will deposit $5. no and then $1.(10 weekly. These small pay ments secure to you the linest org ins mad.', fully warranted by the manufac turer, anil also hy this house. If you are thinking of Joining you had be tier take the matter up without delay. We cannot promise you this opiior.liiii.ily a great while longer. Filers liano House, lal Washington street.
