yon could not get a good pair of shone
for less than $5 or .$( ten years ago that
yon are still obliged to pay that much
for a first-class shoe. Modern improve
ments in the manufacture of shoes have
cut the cost in two. Ten years ago five

shoes as we are now selling for

The board of water commissioners met
last night and opened bids for the water
pipe needed for contemplated extensions
of the city mains. Mays & Crowe,
Maler & Benton aud Sexton & Walther,
of this city, bid ou ijrot jgejaa , d i 1 uIbo
a Portland firm, pl'he Puget Sound Pipe"
Company, of Olympla, Wash., bid on
wooden .pipe, and after due deliberation
their bid was accepted. The contract
with this company calls for 400 feet of
8-inch pipe; 1825 feet of 10-Inch and
1200 feet of 4-inch, with the reducers
and all necessary extras. The total cost
is $1,030.40, including $80.40 (or extras.
These wooden pipes are all to be painted
on the outside with aspbaltum and
bound around with strap iron. The
company guarantees them to stand a
pressure of 250 pound's to the square
luch and to last ten years. A repreten
tative of the company appeared before
the board and exhibited a sample of
pipe that was laid in Olympla in 1878.
It appeared to be perfectly sound. The
contract price calls for the laying of the
pipe, making all necessary connections
and Betting fire plugs; the city to dig
the tranches for the pipes and cover
them alter they are laid and connected.
The saving affected on this contract, as
compared with the cost of iron pipe, is
over if GOO. Many people, who have had
extensive experience with wooden pipe,
insist that when it is of good quality
and is properly prepared it will last lon
ger than iron pipe.

Shortly before his death, when he
knew that the end could be expected at
any time, Lewis B. Cox called for paper
und pencil one day aud wrote the follow
ing message:
To My Friends: A little more than
twenty-one yearB ago I came to Oregon,
without acquaintances, without experi
ence in my profession and without
means. I am now lying on a bed of
w filch death can be the only termina
tion. During these intervening weeks and
days there has come to me one unvary
ing story of love aud sympathy from
every walk in life and every stage of
acquaintanceship. So sweet a spirit of
peace and joy has tilled my room that I
canuot go without giving some feeble
expression to it. I am overwhelmed
with the human sympathy which has
reached out to me from so many differ
ent directions; but I must take it only
as a manifestation of an inexhaustible
well-spring of love, which can refresh
and inspire the whole world.
Let me pray that not to me only, but
to all others, your loving tenderness
may bo shown ; not to those in sickness
only, but as well to those in health.
Give a helping hand and a word of com
fort and hope to your struggling brother ;
clear his path of difficulties, rather than
beset it with obstructions; help Lim to
be a better man, and by so doing you
will help yourselves to be better men.
It cannot be that all the love you
have shown me comes from perishable
life; I tu lino t believe that it will pass
away with my consciousness and be
lost. We shall meet again in a land
where love will reign supreme, and
where in eternal sunshine all clouds will
have passed away. L. B, Cox.
