There nro ' a srent ninny things ilor.e nowadays on paper and through tho hot air process. A happy wedding is announced from Yorktown, Va., whore the groom Is 102 and the bride SO years of age. The gay young couple are negroes. I Killing game out of season Is one of the most Iniquitous' offenses against the laws on the statute books. There Is nothing more enjoy able than a good hunt and if tho game laws were obeyed this pleasure would bo divided up properly, and within a fewvyears this section would be the home of game birds. The packing companies have form ed their combine In spite of tho fact that they were reported to be alarm ed at the position taken by President Roosevelt. It is possible, however. that they took advantage of the pres Ident's Illness to form the combine when he could not annihilate them. The town of Gervals was destroyed yesterday. The loss Is estimated at more than $100,000. This Is where Tracy and Merrill enacted some of the most daring escapades In the early chapter of tho famous man hunt. If such destruction should fol low the entire trail of the outlaws, the principal cities of two states would be destroyed. President Roosevelt is .artvlsed to seek rest. What is considered rest for a president would be Irksome toll forvmost men. The matters of state demand his constant attention, and there are politicians that will And their way to him and bore him though they knew It would cost his life. A well president deserves the sympathy of the public and a sick one should have the prayers and best wishes of all of the people. The fight Is on In earnest In Port land against the wide-open town. Merrill has been compelled to go be fore the grand Jury as a witness to statements ho made In tho council chambers. Merrill only made state ments that were commonly known in Portland, but he emphasized It In a manner as If he knew the transac tions personallly. A great many things are known to a moral cer tainty that can not bo proved In a court of Justice. Portland's crusade promises to bo an exciting one If not an effective one. The national Irrigation congress which convened at Colorado Springe. Colorado, yesterday Is ono of the most Important bodies that has evor met for the good of the great West. This organization has been hammer ing at congress for years to obtain assistance to reclaim the arid lands of the West and It was through It that the bill was Introduced and passed. Its purpose now Is to aid the government In forming such plans as will the most speedily put tho work into operation, and securo tho early reclamation of tho millions of acres .iiat are now lying Idle. Tho failure on tho part of the pub lic to rush before the hoard of equal ization to have assessments raised. Illustrates the fact that there are al ways more chronic howlers than men of action. Any one can stand on the street corners and score the manner in which the public affairs are conducted and can cnlculato to a mathematical certainty how long It will tnlco to land on a back seat, but when It conies to facing the sit uation and offering a remedy or tak ing such action as will recover a The fact that farm hands and rail' road laborers aro scare in this see tlon speaks well for tho country In 1 spite of the Inconvenience that It causes. It means that nu undeslra- 'ble class has taken Its flight to , warmer climes. It starts out early on Its way to the winter home in t California and when spring opens, to- (turns again to the harvests of this , country. If this class should remain here over winter It would not benefit , the community, as it Is usually of I the hobo and petty thievery clement, The men who live here regularly, whatever their calling may be, are of the best citizenship, and such men as earn and command good wages, It is well that tho coast and Callfor nla catches the other class. The national capital has never done a greater thing than she is do ing at this time. The (. A. R. Is re celving one of the grandest ovations In Its history. These old heroes are rapidly passing away, and while they live the nation owes them the duty of honoring them wherever the occa. sion arises. The survivors of the Spanish-American war are already dividing the honors with them, and it Is only a question of time un til the old veterans will occupy a po sition with the new heroes like that of thoveterans of the war with Mex ico to the veterans of the civil' war Their deeds of valor will In a meas ure bo forgotten In the fresher sto ries of the heroes of San Juan, San tiago, Manila and in the warfare that followed in the Philippines. The papers are making a howl about a New York clergyman who re cently sued and recovered for servi ces rendered In conducting a funeral. He was called outside of his parish to perform the service, and It is claimed that as he was not serving the congregation that had him em ployed he had the right to charge tho outsider. Then others claim that a preacher should not think of charg ing for saying a good word about deceased and uttering a last prayer for his soul. Anyway, the court held that the divine should bo paid. Why should not preachers be paid for their services the same as other people? Everything Is being brought to a business basis. A preacher of today must be educated and equip ped or he cannot get a position. It costs money to do this. Tho cold charities of tho world have other places to spend their force without taking up preachers and educating them. When one skirmishes for an education and equips himself to as to be able to fill a pulpit for an In tellectual audience ho Is certainly worthy of compensation. Tho preacher of this day and time who would go about the country taking his chances on charity alone, only wearing that which Is given him and eating from tho same source, would soon look worse than a tramp and got as lean as a fence post In the desert. Ho would bo, called a fa natic or lunatic and be shunned by the best church people and would not he admitted Into their society. Yes, pay the preachers, They earn their salaries and besides, they have troubles of their own. Dinner over, they put on their hats and hasten down town, If thoy nro young, or they sink Into nn easy chnlr and fall nsleep, It they lmvo passed the larking ngc of adolescence. The boys who go down town, lounge about the corners all evening. Tho elders who stay nt homo sleep all night, Time, somebody hns snld, Is tho stuff that life Is made of, and wo ought to keep a strict account of how we spend it. Tho evening Is tho leis ure time of most men, nnd leisure should not be wasted In Idleness, but should be turned to use. Every man and woman ought lo road some good book for an hour or two hours each day. Having resolved to do this, a man ought to make It a solemn duty, as It were a lellgloim oince. to stick to his resolution. Nothing should bo permitted to inter fere with his reading. If, on nny day. ho must be otherwise employed dur ing his reading hour, let hlin make it up at some other time during tho same day. And If he ennnut read the full time today, let hlm make up for it tomorrow. Perseverance will make reading a habit and a pleasure. The keenest pleasures of life ore drawn from liooks, and the man that has tho reading habit, would rather have It than J50.000. In order to get the most out ot reading, one should read with some system, suggests a wrltor In tho San Francisco Bulletin. It Is well to cover a limited period of history and to read everything, formal histories, biographies. autobiographies, mo- molrs. diaries and letters, relating to that period. Or let the thread of one's reading be some branch of natttrnl or political science, such as biology or economics. But if one confine him self only to standard novels and plays, and go through Shakespeare, Dickons, Thackeray, Scott, Jane .Aus ten and others of the first class of writers, he will broaden and improve his mind and fit himself better for his duy's work. Make use of the ods and ends of time which most of us give to dawd ling. Most of the English classics can bo had in pocket t;dltlons for ten cents or a quarter of a dollat, and a man who finds himself with ton minutds on his hands, occasionally, Is well provided if he has a good booit with him. The expression "killing time." is abhorrent. Why should wo wish to kill time? Time Is given us tor .i purpose. We ought to make the most of It. The man who says he has nothing to do is Ignorant or neell gent of his duty to himself the duty of making himself a better, wiser, uroaderminiled man day by dav. Kill ing time is intellectual and moral suicide. Moments are precious. They are not to bo thrown away. There is always something to do. Salem Statesman. EVIL OF TIME-KILLING. What .do you do with your even Ings? Do you waste them or do you employ them well? It would be safo to say that tho maporlty ot men squander their lolsure. They 'go homo to dinner, after their day's work. duel the dark was a favor ite with duelists. Two men were locked in a dark room and crawled stealthily from comer to comer, until some false step made one oi them the target for bullet or blade. Life is a duel in the dark with disease. One false step, one mistake, and the attack conies swift and sudden. The mistake which commonly opens the way for an attack by disease is neglect of the symptoms of stomach trouble. When eating is followed "by undue full ness, belchitigs, sour or bitter risings, etc., disease is attacking the stomach. The best way to frustrate such an at tack is to use Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery. It cures diserses of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, and makes the body strong and healthy. "I irai tuflering very much with my head and stomach," write Sirs. W. C. Gill, of Weldon, Shelby Co., Ala., "head was to diziy wheu I would raiae up in bed would fall right back. Could eat but very little, iu fact scarcely any thing, there seemed to be a heavy weight iu my stomach so I could not rest: I had to belch very often and would vomit up nearly everything I ate. I was iu a bad condition. X took lour bot tles of Dr. llerce's Golden Medical Discovery and five of his Favorite Prescription 1 and am now well and hearty. I feel like a new woman and give Dr. Pierce's medicines credit for tt all. I had taken medicine from physicians without any benefit as I could see."
