I'EGSONAL MENTION
Misa Elizabeth Sampson left yester
day for an outing at the seaside.
Mr. Ira F. Powers, Jr., came up from
Portland last night, and spent today in
the city.
Miss Bee Sterling, who has been at
the beach for a couple of weeks, arrived
home last night.
C. L. Ireland, of the Observer, came
down from Moro yesterday, and will
leave lor Portland in the morning.
Miss Marion Kennedy has returned
home from a ten month a sojourn in
Vallejo, Cal. She says there are several
DaHebues now visiting that town.
Mr; and Mrs. Rilev came in from Ilav
Creek laet night, and left for their
home, Salem, this morning. Mr. Riley
has been looking after the business of
the Baldwin Sheep and Land Co. daring
the absence of Mr. bomerville,
The Wheat Trade.
The past week has been a lively one
in wheat circles, and compared with the
week preceding haa fairly eclipsed it,
Under ordinary circumstances, the vol
ume of business which has been done
throughout the Pacific Northwest would
be considered very large, as more wheat
has passed out of primary hands than
for the same tim'e for a number of years
past. In many sections of the interior
farmers have sold quite freely at cur
rent prices, and by so doing have placed
themselves in good circumstances. In
other localities, the disposition to hold
back euppliea is noted, in anticipation of
obtaining figures later on, owing to
strong reports recently received from
Europe. On the whole, enough wheat
r - i.wu ui aw miiiuj iulu uiubb
of exporters to meet the wants of early
tonnage contracts, and present appear
ances warrant the belief that vessels
from this port will receive prompt dis
patch. la and around Walla Walla there has
been keen competition on the part of
of buyers, and in many instances farm
ers have realized prices which were
above ttie spot value here. Liberal pur
chases on the basis of $1.45 per cental
ihere have been made, and in a few cases
-ven higher prices were paid for club
wheat. In the Paiause country, high
-prices were realized. In the Valley,
where competition was particularly act
ive, wheat sold on the basia of $1.45 per
cental. To warrant these prices, foreign
markets must go a little higher than
present quotations.
The movement during September is
expected to be very large, and the out
look for heavy receipts from the interior
and very liberal exports from the Co
lumbia river and Puget sound during
the remainder of the season is very pro
pitious. We quote Walla Walla wheat
84c, bluestem 87c, Valley 87c per bushel.
Commercial Review.
Bib Company for Alaska.
A dispatch from Helena, Montana,
tinder date of August 17th, says :
A big Alaska mining company that it
was announced recently was to be organ
ized under the laws of Montana saw the
light of day today when attorneys of the
company filed articles of incorporation
with the secretary of state. The fee is
the largest ever received by Mr. Hogan
since he became secretary of the state
and among the largest ever received in
the history of the office. It costs just
$1003 to file the articles. The company
is organized under the laws of the state
of Montana, with a capital stock of $25,
000,000, divided into 250,000 shares of
$100 each. The incorporators are Por
teus B. Weare, John Cudahy. Charles
A. Weare, William W. Weare, all of
Chicago, and ex-United States Senator
Thomas C. Power of this city. The
company's places of business are to be
in Helena and Chicago, 111., while oper
ations are to be carried on in Alaska.
The ecope of the company is gigantic.
It is to engage in all sorts of mining en
terprises in Alaska and in Montana,
chiefly in the former country. The
company announces that it will engage
in quartz as well aa placer mining and
that it will keep an eye open for oil
wells. It will carry on a trading busi
ness alBO. It will also engage in the
business of transportation, both on land
and water. It will build citiea and
towns and put in telegraph and tele
phone service. In fact, it is an out
growth of the North American Trans
portation & Trading Company. '

Plains, N. J., . was hunting eggs in the
henhouse, when she threw a game ban
tam hen, with sitting proclivities from a
nest. No sooner had Mrs. Elliott re
moved the eggs than the hen attacked
her in a ferocious manner, and dug claws
and beak into her face, badly lacerating
the flesh. Blinded and dazed, Mrs. El
liott staggered from the henhouse, while
the maddened fowl followed her all the
way to the bouse, fighting fiercely. The
wounds inflicted by the bantam bled pro
fusely. Mrs. Elliott fainted.
EFFECT OF MUZZLES.
Their Enforced Use Has Changed the
Breed of London Dogs.
The muzzling- order has new been bo
long in operation that one is able to sea
its practical resulis, at all events so far
as London 5s concerned, says the Lou
don News. They are really very remark
able, especially from a point of view not
likely to be immediately taken.
The supremacy of the fox terrior is
gone. One misses the little, vivid white
spots that moved about so quickly and
made streets and thoroughfares gay,
and, it must be admitted, noisy. Most
of these dogs were mongrels, and, being
of no appreciable value, and probably of
no clearly defined ownership, they
passed quickly in a wholesale way into
the lethal chambers. London, is rid of
them, but at all our towns the white
lerrier with the odd markings is still in
the ascendant.
On the other hand, here in town we
have the Irish and the Scotch. These
are as yet pretty pure; they keep rather
to themselves, after the manner of the
provincials, but in a couple of years
mongrelism will assert itself, and Lon
don will be overrun. As it is, the hard y
little Aberdeen, with his long body,
short legs and nondescript markings
of black and gray and mustard, holds
the street, and the Irish terrier loafs
about, social and easy-going.
1 hey are botu excellent in their own
way, but, for all that, one misses the
sharp, quick vitality of the fox terrier.
Even as a mongrel he seemed to concen
trate in his active little body all doggv
qualities, especially fidelity and hatred
of cats.
Copper In the Tissues.
For several years past the working
chemists have claimed that native cop
per may be found in minute quantities
in the -tissues of every known species
of plant and animal. Since January 1
a commission appointed by the British
Association for the Advancement of
Science has made 60,000 examinations
and chemical analysis by a great va
riety of processes and has not failed
to find traces of copper in a single in
stance. They found it in the coloring
of flowers, in the feathers, beaks and
eyes of birds, in the human brain and
blood; in the blades, grains and roots
of wheat, in the scales of fishes and ser
pents, in short everywhere.
