Shanghai, July 2. The United Statee
battleship Oregon, which ran ashore off
the island of How Ke, in the Mlatau
group, twenty-fivf miles northeast of
Ciie Foo, on June 28th, has been floated.
Washington. July 8. Secretin y Long
tliis morning received the following
c.iblegrom from Lieutenant A. L. Key,
naval attncho at (he United States lega
tion at Tokio, Japan, in regard to the
grounding of the Oregon :
"Tokio, July 12, 1900. Secretary Navy,
Washington, I). C. Russian dock at
Port Arthur is too small for the Oregon
to enter. Japanese navy department
tenders the use of either Kure or Ko-
koshuma docks. Offers any assistance
lesired. Has ordered Akitieushima from
Che Foo to the Oregon. Have cabled
Wilde offer of docks. Kky."
The naval officials are disappointed at
the statement that the Oregon cannot
be docked at 1'ort Arthur, as that place
is only about sixty miles from where
she struck. Nagasaki is (100 miles die
tant, but can be reached by the Oregon
without venturing far outside of the
emootb waters of the Pe Chi Li bav.

Butte, by which two persons were killed
and thirty-two injured.
The train left Butte at 8:50 last night
and was on its way to Helena. It had
made the climb up the Continental di
vide in safety, and was rustling along at
top speed on comparitively level ground
when the rails spread, ditching the
baggage car, smoker,day coach, and
sleeper. The engine and one baggage
car remained on the track. The cars
I were thrown over on their sides and the j
paBseiiEers who were not injured, or
only slightly so, climbed out through
the windows. All ttie lights were ex
tinguished, and from different portions
of the wreck came calls for helu and
I groans and cries of the injured. Con
i ductor Zeick, who wub seriously injured,
made his way back to Woodville, five
miles and telegraobed to Butte for help
A special train witti doctors anil nurses
was dispatched from that city, and
brought in the injured, who were taken
to the different hospitals.
tttory of a Slave.
To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is tbe worst
iorm of slavery. George D. Williams, of
Manchester, Mich., tells how such a
slave was made free. Ho says: "My
wife has been so helpless lor five years
that she could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric
Bitters, sheis wonderfully improved and
t,ble to do her own work." This sunreme
remedy for female diseaees quickly cures
nervousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
headache, backache, fuinting and dizzy
spells. This miracle working medicine
is a L'odsend to weak, sickly, run down
people. Every bottle guaranteed. Only

IMPOSSIBLE TO
RELIEVE PEKIN
Powers Must Prepare to Meet Chinese
Forces Numbering One Hundred
and Forty Thousand, Stationed
Between Tien Tsin and the Capi
tal City.
London, July 4. 12:45 p. m.. A dis
patch from Taku dated Saturday, June
30th, and Che Foo, Tuesday, July 3d,
says that the British and Russian ad
mirals at a council of war held June
30th, decided that it was impossible to
attempt to relieve Pekin without great
ly increased forces. They also con
cluded that it would be impossible to
hold Tien Tsin, but in the event of this
not proving feasible, they will endeavor
to retain possession of Taku. One hun
dred and forty thousand imperial troops
are stationed between Pekin and Tien
Tsui, while the total of the allied forces
which can be concentrated at the
present barely numbers 20,000.
It is reported that General Nieh Si
.Chang is advancing for an attack on
Tun Tsin with 90,000 troops.
Another leport has been received at
Taku to the effect that the German
guards rescued the body of Baron Von
Ketteler, the late German minister to
China, after he was murdered by the
Chinese.
London, July 4.-12:52 p. m. "Not
a single foreigner iB now alive in Pekin,"
is the latest Chinese report which has
reached Shanghai. Earlier repurte from
the same sources describe the condition
of the British legation as something
awful. It is said that rooms of the lega
tion were filled with sick and wounded,
the killed lying unburied in heaps. It
is believed that many members and
officers ot the Tsung li Yamen perished
'when the German guard, maddened by
the murder of Baron Von Ketteler, the
German minister, set fire to the build

SkatnaniH County SI I II Itured.
Stevenson, Wash., July 4. The
Wilson and Grapper saw mill, one mile
northwest ot this place, was completly
destroyed by tire Monday night. The
fire is supposed to have been of incend
iary origin. The property was valued
at 35,000, and was injured. Thomas
Connell, of Portland, had recently pur
chased the mill of C. B. Williams, and
iiad operated the plant, but n short time.
The mill was well located, being in close
proximity to large bodies of fine timber.
After many intricate experiments,
scientists have discovered methods for
obtaining all the natural digeetante.
These have been combined in the pro
portion found in the human body and
united uitn suostances that build up
the digestive organs, making a com
pound called Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. It
digests what you eat and allows all
dyspeptic; to eat plenty of nourishing
loou wniiu the stomach troubles are
being radically cured by the medicinal
ngints it contains. It is pleasant to
take and will give quick relief.
