could not find it. ' Defendant called her
some hard names did not "remember all
of them, he called her a "damd old hog.','
The defendant, after her death, said
that he had no more respect for Mrs.
Rogers than for a dog. Was sent by the
defendant, to see how Bert Rogers felt
about the matter and whotherbe : eus:
picioned the defendant. 'The defendant
wanted me to get Bert to stand in with
him, as Will Rogers would have the
matter gone ; through - "'withi . and
Bert had great influence over Will. De-r
fondant eaid that his defense would be
suicide, and also; that be thought that
there was a will made out in favor of
the boys, and that "Mrs. Rogers had
committed suicide to cheat him and his
wife. Defendant eaid that C. C&tes and
Mr. Crossen spoke: with' 'her, ; and that
Mrs. Rogers acted silly telling them that
her life had been threatened. She
clung; to them saying that eheVas afraid
had never threatened her life, and that
I had heard all the threats made. De
fendant said that he would take the ad
ministration but of her hands,7 and that
he told Mrs. Rogers that " she had the
place deeded to her with the understand
ing that when the mortgage was paid it
would be deeded back to the estate, and
thia was the reason he was going to have
the administration f taken out of her
hands. He said that he Would have a
lawyer draw np the necessary papers.

From tUc Facifia Farnier.l
A visit to tho Portland expoTtion and
an interview with Superintendent Mitch
ell demonstrates that everything is
progressing rapidly toward the comple
tion of one of the best exhibit ever held
in the state. Mr. Mitchell says that he
intends dividing, the floor of the floral
into as mahy spaces as there are florists
who wish to exhibit, and let them draw
for their choice of plat on which to place
their 'flowers. From indications at
present there will be more county ex
hibits than ever before. Mr. Morgan" is
kept constantly ' busy with collecting
graiu, erase, wool, etc., and Mr; Sargent
has been placed in charge of the norti
cultural collectionT It was' foundT.hat
the west gallery was too warm, so that
the horticultural display will be trans-
ferretl to the eastern gallery where the
crreen fruits will keeri better. This will
throw allthe carriage and similar ex
hibits on the west 'side. 1 The building
will be thrownopen probably ; about th
25th of August if all arrangements can
be made that visitorrand ntrangers pas
sing through the city can view the fine
horticultural exhibit. . . .
One of the finest exhibits wilt be the
wool. - There are ; already something
like 100 fleeces on hand, of which W. H
Wvthvcomb' of Hilisboro sends ten
Marino and ten Cotswold.' D. C Stew
art sends seventeen fleeces, Ladd & Co.'
tT Air. (!hna. k.- ljuici sends in tnreo
flecceg one buck "weighing" twenty-two
and one-half pounds, and two ewes each
weighing eighteen and one-half pounds.
Mf. R. Scott, of Milwaukee and others
expect to send in fleeces. 1 One Of the
most encouraging features of this wool
exhibit is' the fact that it is all full
blood. The fleeces, or rather pelts, : fur
nished by C. E. Ladd will be thoroughly
washed,' combed' arid mounted. . -.'.
The.expoSition officiala will act on a.
uggestrori that the produce shown here
will h6 carefully preserved and forward
ed to the world's f airj at Chicago. Un
der these ' circumstances it behooves
every farmer to exert himself and send

No one doubts that Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy really cures Catarrh, whether
the disease be recent or of long standing,
because the makers of it clinch their
faith in it with a 500 guarantee, which
isn't a rjaere"n"ewSaper iruarantee. bnt
is 'one that isf;. "on- call in afd"oment
That"tiyment' ii yhen ;yon jproVe; that
its makers can't' cure you. The reason
fof their faith is tBis: Dr. Sage's
remedy has proved itself the right cure
for ninety-nine out of one" hundred cases
of catarrh in the head, and the World's
Dispensary Medical Association an af
ford to take the risk of you being tbe
one hundredth.
The only question is are you willing
to make the test, if the makers are will
ing to take the risk? If so, the rest is
easv. You -pay your druggist 50 cents
and the trial begins. If you're wanting
the $500-you'll get something belter a
cure!
