TEE EXCELLENCE OF SYEUP CF FIGS
is due not only to the originality and
simplicity of the combination, but also
j to the care and skill with which it is
; manufactured by scientific processes
' known to the California Fig Syrup
. Co. only, and we wish to impress upon
all the importance of purchasing the
true and original remedy. As the
genuine Syrup of Figs is manufactured
by the California Fig Syrup Co.
only, a knowledge of that fact will
assist ona in avoiding' the worthless
imitations manufactured by other pafc
ties. The high standing of the Cali
fornia Fro Syrup Co. with the medi
cal profession, and the satisfaction
which the genuine Syrup of Figs has
given to millions of families, makes
the name of the Company a guaranty
of the excellence of its remedy. It is
far in advance of all other laxatives,
as it acts on the kidneys, liver and
bowels without irritating or weaken
ing them, and it does not gripe nor
nauseate. In order to get its beneficial
effects, please remember the name of
the Company

NEWS FROM CAVITE.
An Interesting Letter From fcoy Bal
lard Cavite Arsenal. Philip
pine Islands.
J he following letter was received by
jMr. Ballard, of this city, yesterday, and
js letters trom our boys in the Philip-
rpioaa are always read with pleasure, we
.-ptioN the aame. It was written on
-AoKtiaitfch, and is as fallows :
; i-rrrie you a few lines come days
-ago, which f think will leare on the
, same steamer as this letter.
.There ias 4een eome fighting almost
jm-eeeanuy Uornig the past three or four
days between our troops and the Span
: larda. There have been fourteen Anier
i jeans killed and forty-four wounded;
V but how. is this! "Three hundred and
UiveenpaniRriia kiRa and over one
thousand funded."
We have not been in any engagements
vet, but there is no telling bow soon we
will.
The native governor, Aguinaldo, has
been missing for the past three days,
and the natives think we know where
lie is.
An order ha9 beeen issued command
nng all the natives to leave cavite arsenal
withing the next twenty-four hours.
Tbey are all getting drunk, gathering
around on the etreet corners and
talking very loud. We have provo
guards out and order them to dispurse
when they gather in this way.
Night before last Co. A was ordered
out to quiet a disturbance among the na
tives. Thev were out from 12 :15 to
7 :30.
The battlcehip Monterey got in two
-days ago. We expect Dewey to bom
bard Manila at any time, but do not
-know -when. We all hope it will be be
fore long, as we are tired of Cavite, and
litis an awful unhealthy place. I have
ieit fine all summer. ,
We have received news here that
pDain has eued for peace. ' Is that true?
We are ready for anything thut may
come. " ; " ' .
I intended to send you a list of those
wbo were killed and wounded in an en
gageraent a few days ago, but I went
over to the bulletin board and tbey had
been taken down. .,- ,

Give my regards to all my inquiring
friends. You said something about not

cisco. I have written at least twenty
letters Bince then. I receive and read
your letters and tbey geve me much
pleasure, indeed.
TEACHERS' INSTITUTE
Continued from 3d page.)
been dedicated today, is indeed the pride
of the The Dalles, and might weli.be the
pride of a much larger town.
A more complete or better arranged
Echool building would be difficult to
find, and when we consider what great
improvements have taken place in The
Dalles' public school buildings during
the laBt few years, it is certainly a just
cause to make us feel proud.
The dimensions of the new building
are 69x93 feet. The entrance to the
building is fcy concrete stairs, twenty
three feet long, which lead into a large
hall 24x60 feet. The hall is one of tbe
most attractive features of tbe structure,
affording ample room for drills, etc.
On the lower floor are four rooms
32x29 feet, and supplied with good-sized
dressing rooms. The stairs leading to
the upper floor are platform stairs ten
feet long, half way up being a landing
8x24 feet. Upstairs, is a hallway 0x24
feet, and directly in front is an immense
room 31x63 feet, from which open two
large recitation rooms, one 19x31 and
tbe other 31x63 feet; also two circular
shaped cloak rooms. On either side of
the large windows facing the city are
book cases, between which is a com
fortable seat. This will be the main
room ot the high school.. Indeed this
entire floor will be used by that portion
of the echool, while the lower floor will
be occupied by the sixth, seventh and
eighth grades.
In the southwest corner is situated the
library and the principal's office com
bined, and a hall connects this with a
labratory and apparatus room 18x32
feet.
A concrete floor has been placed in
the basement, which is divided by a
partition and will be ueed as recreation
rooms for the pupils in stormy weather.
Two large Morgan heaters will furnish
hot air for the heating of the rooms, and
this is considered at present the tvet
method of heating now in use. Every
precaution has been taken to make the
ventilation faultless, which is quite nec
essary in echool rooms. The e-ntire
building will be well lighted by electric
lights, twelve being placed in the high
school rooms alone.
Mr. C. J. Crandall, as architect, and
-neKHrH. cyivescei ana rencn, as con
ii atiurn, certainty oeserve much praiee
for the manner in which their work has
heep done, while the people ot The
Dalles are to be congratulated upon this
substantial and worthy addition to our
already flourishing city.

I Modern Treatment of
Consumption
The latest work on the
treatment of diseases, written
by forty eminent American
physicians, says: "Cod-liver
oil has done more for the con
sumptive than all other reme
dies put together." It also
says t " The hypophosphites
of lime and soda are regarded
by many English observers as
specifics for consumption"
Scott's Emulsion
as
contains the best cod-liver oil
in a partially digested form, $
combined with the Hypophos
phites of Lime and Soda. This
remedy, a standard for a
X
quarter of a century,
is
in
r exact accord with the latest
n views of the medical profession.

Notice to Delinquent Taxpayers.
The delinqent taxes of Wasco county,
as shown on the rolls now in the hands
of theherifF are $60,000, an amount al
most equal to the indebtedness of tbe
county. Every citizen will doubtless
admit that this state of affairs should
not exist, and that all taxes should be
collected. On account of hard times
in the past the county court Las shown
leniency to taxpayers, but that leniency
has reached, the limit, and the court
cannot wait longer on delinquents to
make settlements. For this reason a
warrant has been attached to each de
linquent roll commanding tbe sheriff to
collect all taxes by seizure and sale of
property. With a bountiful crop now
in sight, there can no longer be any rea
sonable excuse for tbe non-payment of
taxes. The sheriff is bound by oath to
comply with the terms of the warrants
attached to the tax rolls for the collec
tion thereof, and has no option in the
matter. Delinquent taxpayers can save
the cost of seizure an 1 sale of property
by settling their taxes at once.

Sheriff and Tax Collector for Wasco
