McGu're, Reed and Halbird went by freight train to Winchester, where they boarded a small boat for the junction of the rivers, six miles below Roseburg. Governor Getr and General Tuttle went to the Soldiers' Home, and Secretary Dunbar left for Astoria today. Details of the Drowning. After viewing the river in the vicinity of Winchester, Messrs. McGuire, Reed and Hubbard look a boat and proceeded down the river, which is a wild, rapid stream. When nearing the first falls, they pulled the boat ashore and McGuire and Reed got out and walked around the falls. Mr. Hubbard took the boat over the falls, and the other two again got in. About one mile further down are the long rapids, about one-half mile in length and one can see them only a short dis tance. The roar of the ' water first an nounces one's approach. On hearing the warning sound they undertook to row ashore, when a rowlock broke and the next moment they were in the water. Commissioner McGuire and Mr. Hub bard started to swim ashore. Senator Reed being unable to swim, clung to the upturned boat. When about half way to shore, Hubbard looked over his shoul der and saw McGuire swimming after bim and Reed upon the boat. When be reached the shore he looked again, and both bad dissappeared. Neither has yet been found. Searching parties are out with ropes, lanterns and grappling hooks. The accident was most unfortunate, as Senator Reed's wife expected to meet bim here tonight. People at Winchester who know the treacherous waters of the North TJmpqua warned McGuire, Reed and Hubbard of the danger, and advised them not to uu dertake so hazardous a trip. They were warned the second-time when they were about to get in the boat after Mr. Hub bard bad taken it over the first rapids The North Umpqua is one of the swift est running streams in Oregon. Mr. McGuire leaves a wife, who is the daughter of Bailiff Stuart, of Judge Fra zer's court, and five children, the eldest . of which is fifteen. - Telephone System at Goldendale.

Ridicule, However, is Not Arg-omemt, a ad Facts are Stubborn Things, Stomach troubles are so common and in most cases, so obstinate to cure that people are apt to look with suspicion on any remedy claiming to be a radica1, permanent cure for dyspepsia and in digestion. Many such pride tbemeelves on their acuteness in never being hum bugged, especially in medicines. This fear of being humbugged can be carried too far, so far, in fact, that many people suffer for years with weak diges tion rather than risk a little time and money in faithfully testing the claims made of a preparation eo reliable and universally used as Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. Now Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are vastly different in one important respect from ordinary proprietary meaicmes for the reason that they are not a secret patent medicine, no secret is made of their ingredients, but analysis shows them to contain the natural digestive ferments, pure aseptic pepsin, the diges tive acids, Golden Seal, bismuth, by- drastis and nux. They are not cathartic, neither do they act powerfully on the organ, but they cure indigestion on the common sense plan of digesting the food eaten thoroughly before it has time to fermenteour and cause the mischief. This is the only secret of their success. Cathartic pille never have and never can cure indigestion and Btomact troubles because they acteutirely on the bowels, whereas the whole trouble is really in the stomach. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets taken after meals digest the food. That is all there is to it. Food not digested or balf diges ted is poison as it creates gas, acidity. headaches, palpitation of the heart, loss of flesh and appetite and many other troubles which are often called by some other name. They are sold by drutrgists everywhere at 50 cents per package. Address F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich., for little book on stomach diaeaees, sent free. Deafness Cannot be Cared. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafnesr and that is by constitutional remedies Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect bearing, and when it is en tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed for ever ; nine cases out of ten are caused "by catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces.

Senator Mc Bride was at the war department today discussing with Adjutant-General Cor bin the subject of bringing borne the Oregon volunteers. The senator suggests that as it will take several months to bring home all the yolunteers, it will be well to have preparations made to start early with those that are not needed. He had a letter from Colonel Summers, of the Second Oregon, written since the fighting against the insurgents began, saving that as long as there . was any fighting to be done, the Oregon regiment v as willing to stay and defend the flag, but when it was over, the boys would all be willing to come home. If General Otis decides that the volunteers can be spared, the Oregon regiment, being one of the first to go, will be one of the first to return, as General Corbin told Sena tor McBride the return would be in that order. - ' Spain's Greatest Need.
