L TEA HOUSE LOCATING LAND IN SCRIP ; IN THE LAKEVIEW DISTRICT' Tract of 15,000 Acres Just Taken, and Another Deal for 30,000 Acres Is Being Negotiated at Lakevlew. .Lakeview. Or., March 14. A stran ger appqarcd here a few days ago and located 15,000 acres of yellow pine, with scrip. The tract is said to be on the north fork of the Deschutes. In Crook county. Cruisers and people holding claims have boon In close consultation at the Lakevlew hotel, In private rooms, and a 30,000-ncre scrip deal is said to be brewing. The tract lies around the north edge of Klamath Indian reservation, and com prises practically all the timber in large blocks that Is left in the Lake view land district. May 1 will riot find nn available tract of timber land left in this district. Cruisers are now going on snowshoes and braving the greatest hardships to run out the lines. Four newspapers are said to be on the road now to Silver Lake to got In on the ground floor and publish the final proof notices; but If It all goes with scrip, neither the newspaper man nor the settler will be much ben' eflted. Beds of black sand can be found throughout that timber belt, and be fore more entries are made the min eral character of the land may be de-, termlned. i CELEBRATIO SALE GOLD COIN "SWEATERS" OPERATING IN NORTHWEST. Headquarters in Sound Cities it is Thought Secret Service Men at Work on Suspected Movements of Gang. A clever gang of men known to the secret service agents as gold coin sweaters, is working in the North west. Its headquarters Is i?ot known, but it is believed that It is either at Portland, Seattle or Tacoma. The United States secret sen-ice agents throughout the territory are at work in an attempt to run the gang to earth. The old-time counterfeiting busi ness is very quiet just now, but the sweating process is being worked pretty strong. The manner in which the sweaters work Is to put a gold coin through an electrical and acid bath, extracting from it $3 or worth of gold leaving the face of the coin unmarreu or detaced. In this man ner the man who understands his bus iness is able to make lots of money without much work. Leaves No Trace. The clever sweater can put a gold coin through the process with such skill that no trace of damage can be seen by any but an export. The secret service men say that they have no doubt that the gang now operating In the Northwest work over Immense numbers of coins, and that they make a small living by tt. The process, the secret service men say, is by no means a new one. It has been worked for years, and Is said to have been discovered by Chi namen. Another trick of the man whose tendencies lie In the direction of mak ing a living without work, is to place a number of gold coins In a leather bag and then rub them together until sufficient gold is rubbed off to make it worth while to sell It. The coins are not badly defaced by this process, and can be passed without trouble. We have been remodeling and altering our store for the purpose of improving our condition. So that the greatest number possible may see what improvements we have made we will make special prices for the week beginning. Monday, March 16th MAINE'S INCOME FROM TOURISTS Game Warden Qulmby Receives a Re port Showing These Facts, and Points to Them as an Example of What Oregon Might do Along the Same Lines. Game Warden Qulmby recently re ceived from the East a copy of the re port of the commissioners of fish and game wardens of the state of Maine, showing the amount of money expend ed by the state for the preserving of game and also the money brought Into Maine through outside visitors, says the1 Telegram. Mr. Qulmby uses this to Illustrate his point that it would be wise for Oregon to appro prlate sufficient money to hire dep uty wardens to sec that the laws are obeyed, as it would Increase the game so that the people would come here to hunt. The report shows some almost won derful facts In regard to the amount of money that the game of Maine brings to tho people through one chan nel or another. In part the report Is 'as follows "Guides registered, 1801. They re port havln" guided residents and non residents as follows: Residents, 4124; resident hunters, 1609: non-resident 9199; nonresident hunters. 3252; total number of days guided, 78,171, at $3 50 per day, $274,698. "From various sources It Is report ed that a total of 10,8.62 deer have been killed, and it )e estimated ;thot .at loasi. zu.uuu aeer wore Kinen hi the state of Maine in 1902 "It Is shown that the total number of non-residents -coming to Maine for the year -1902 In the Inland territory of the" state' was 133.885, with returns' from two counties missing and incom pioie returns irom seven counues.

Ana to tnis 3uu,uuu paid guides, and It makes a total of more than a million and two-thirds of dollars left py moso people m tne state for noard and .guides alone. It Is believed that a most comprehensive estimate would be that these visitors leave at least $ino. each on nn average in the state, indeed, some of them spend more thnn J50 a day "This shows what the income to a State will bo from non-resident hunt ers and sportsmen,'' said Mr. Qulmbly In discussing tho roport ."and some I day the people of Oregon will real ; Izo that their game Interests should I un pruHurveu,' 48 pairs Boys' Knee Pants, 2oc Celebration Price, 10c Pins, lc papers Celebration Price, 2 papers for lc Good Spool Cotton, 2 spool 8 for 5c 1 doi Latest Fancy Stock Ties Regular $1 15 am' $1.25, Celebration price, 50c Ladies Summer Undervests, Regular price 5c Celebration price 2 for 5c 1 piece Black Camels Hair, $1.25 yard, Celebration price, 63c Celebration Sale, Tho Peoples 'Warehouse will sell from Monday until Saturday, 33 four yard Khaki silk waist patterns at $1.
