Life goes with a swing. There's no
greater luxury than good clothes and
surely none more sensible and eco

a perfect fitting suit nothing else can
give. You'll find it in our celebrated
H. S. & M. clothes. This is the

"For a number ot years Captain Law

homestead at Hood River, and engaged
the transportation business on the
Cliumbia river. He first started in
baeiness with the running of sailboats

d afterward built the little steamers
fary and Wasco to ply the water of the
iddle Columbia river.
"Later with R. R. Thompson he built
the steamer Venture at Cascades. It
was intended to steam the vessel up to
the dalles and then take it overland to
Celilo for the purpose of running on the
Upper Columbia and Snake rivers. ' The
trial trip wps to be made under the
management of Captain Coe, but
through some misunderstanding the
lines were caet off before the engineer
was ready, and the Venturer went over

This office has received a contribution
partly literary, but principally sapona
ceous, the combination consisting of five
pounds of soft soap and a small dodger
extolling its merits.
As we arrived home from the - mount
ainous regions of Baker county Sunday,
with plenty of grime and mineral stains
on our hands, the 'presentation of a
wash house supply of soft soap was
offensively suggestive: but when we
read how it would cure dyspepsia, stop
coughs, relieve rheumatism and furnish
not only clean hands, but a contrite
spirit, we felt that no offense was in
tended, but that the owner ot the soap
desired simply to place his goods where
they would do the most good.
The eoap is made by Mr. Way of Port
land, and he states in hia circular that
it will clean glassware as clear as crystal.
This, we think, he can easily demon
strate. When we get a day off, we In

Survivor of the Mannacre Says the
Missionary Was Tomahawked.
Mrs. Catherine Saer Prlngle, a sur
vivor of the Whitman mas-acre, near
Walla Walla, and a member of the
Whitman household at the time, is con
vinced that the remains of the martyred
missionary were not in the grave recent
ly opened, from which the bones were
removed and exhibited at Walla Walla.
Mrs. Pringle lost . her parents on the
long iourney to Oregon, and was adopted
by Mr. and Mrs. Whitman. Atthongh
a child when the awful massacre took
place, she has a vivid recollection of its
horrors. She writes to the Spokesman
Review under date of October 25, as
follows:
"There ia an old proverb that says
'Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly to be
wise.' I was forcibly reminded of this
when I read the description of the skulls
taken from the grave of Dr. Whitman.
Had the grave remained undisturbed,
the public would never have known but
that all the remains of the victims re
pose there. I have always had my
doubts on the matter, knowing all the'
circumstances, and so expressing myself
when applied to years ago for my con
sent to moving the remains to the cam
pus of Whitman college.
"I am thoroughly convinced now that
none of the skulls found belonged to Dr.
Whitman, for noue of the wound marks
answer to those he received a toma
hawk wound on the back of the head
and a gunshot wound in the throat.
' 'I should soonei think that skull No.
1 belongs to Crockett Bewly or Amos
Sales, who were murdered in their beds
on the 13th day1 of December, 1847, as
they were thrown out to the floor and
dragged by the feet to the door, where
they were thrown out. I ' saw the
Indians strike them repeatedly with
their tomahawks.
"The skull of the man who appeared
to be about 60 years old is probably Mr.
Marsh, the miller. One probably is
Hoffman", and one Gillian, the tailor.
"As there was only one woman killed,
it must be, as the learned doctor cays,
that of Mrss Whitman if it is that of a
woman. I have my doubts. It may be
that of one or the other of the Sager
boys." .
