Veteran Insvcctor Tells of tlte Oddi ties of Mexican Travel Peons Are Herded In Rough Cars Llko Rata American Travel on Mexican Railroads Makes a Stronger De mand for Pullman Cars There Dnties of tlie Inspector Are to Im prove the Pullman Service In Every Way Possible. "The heaviest travel now moving anywhere on the American continent Is now westward over the transcon tinental railroads to the Lewis and Clark fair," said H. A. Durand, In spector for the Pullman Palace Car company, who was In the city this morning on his way to Spokane on a tour of Inspection In the Pullman ser vice. Mr. Durand's territory reaches from Victoria, B. C, to the City of Mexico, and he covers every import ant line of railroad In that Immense expanse of country. His duties are to Inspect the serv ice in the way of treatment of pas sengers by employes, receive com plaints from the public In regard to the service and to guard against dis honest and objectionable practices In the service. He Is supposed to be familiar with conditions In every car In his territory and to know exactly how each con ductor and porter treats the public. Where he finds a gruff, unaccommo dating conductor In the service he suggests a change of manner or rec ommends suspension and in this way keeps the service satisfactory to the traveling public as far as possible. Mr. Durand tells interesting stories of travel In Mexico. In that country are four classes of travel, first, sec ond, third and Pullman. Third class is rough cars with board bencbes for peons and the lowest class of Mexl fSborers. Second class Is fitted with backs to the scats and cushions like American smoking cars. Pull man service there is the same u here and the prices are about th same. He says the bulk of travel In Mex ico is in the second and third class cars, the peons sleeping on thl bencbes and floor of the third class cars like rats In a nest. American travel In Mexico is mak ing a stronger demand for Pullman cars and gradually the better class of Mexicans are patronizing Pullman and first class cars exclusively. Mr. Durand has been In the service of the Pullman company for 25 years, traveling over every line of road In the United States. I CLEANSING, PURI FYING SOAPS Toilet soaps are all supposed to be made' for the purpose of cleansing and purifying the skin, but many soans have another quality that of irritating and roughening the xkin. The soaps we sell are not only pure, but they are neutral, which means that they are ajl soap and do not contain an ex- ct-nn ui uuune ueiro ms, uikuii.

SOAP 25c ANNOYING DELAYS MAIL TO PORTLAND VIA WALLA WALLA" IS A FARCE. Tlte Rule That Such Mall Should Be Sent North "When No. 5 Is Report ed More Than Two Hours Late," Docs Not Seem to lie Observed With Any Consistence Local Post orricc Has Complained to the Rail road Aiitliorlties and tlie Matter May lie Taken to Uie Department. The system started here a few weeks ago of sending westbound mall to Portland via Walla Walla when No. 5 Is over two hours late, has turned out to be a farce, because of Indifference, or something else, on the part of the railroad people. Under the rule recently made ny the postal department at the sugges tion of the local office, all westbound mall posted at the office up to 5 p. m. each day Is sent to Walla Walla on the evening train, and from there j sent to Portland on the Spokane Fly-1 er, thus getting Into Portland early next morning. However, this was to be done only when No. S was report ed more than two hours late at 5 o'clock. Since the above ruie went Into ef fect the postnf fice people here say that mail has been sent via Walla Walla only two or three times. This Is because of the fact that early In the evening No. 5. is almost always reported to be but slightly behind time, thus preventing them from sending the mall on any other train. However, during the night it has been the regular thing for weeks for No. 5's time to be gradually placed back during the night, and for It to pass through here anywhere from 3 o'clock a. m. to 7 or 8 the next morning. Consequently, the mall that is held for tho delayed train does not reach Portland until late In the afternoon and sometimes not until near even ing. As a result, great Inconvenience Iff caused, as such delay practically means that an extra day 1 required to commvtin!catc with Portland. ' This (nothing Deputy Postmaster ffehch made complaint to the rail way people here regarding the mat ter, and it is said they will try to get better reports on the train hereafter. However, they hold that the fault is with the dispatcher at La Grande, as all reports are sent out from there. Last evening the first report on No. 5 placed It but half an hour be hind the schedule, and accordingly the mall was held for It. However, the train did not pass here until about 6 o'clock this morning. Since the first reports regarding the train are based on Its time at Huntington, It seems strange there should be such a loss of time after the first report is given. If the re port last evening was correct, the train lust nver sixe hours between Huntington and this place, which Is said to be Impossible. Unless more accurate reports ate received on the train hereafter. It Is the Intention ol the postal officials here to take, the matter up with peo ple higher up and endeavor to secure such service ns will enable them to send out mall without Ruch delays.

Serious Practice Will Begin In a Sliort lime, and Selection of Men for tlie Hrxt Team D. P. Smythe Is Again Coach, Being Chosen for the Third Year Dean Goodman Is Manager Every Indication Tiiat tlte Pen dlcton II lull Sdiool Will Have n Splendid Tram. Yesterday afternoon the first prac tice for this year was had by the high school football boys, and quite a number turned out to kick the pig skin. Within a short time it Is said that practice will be on an earnest, and that the work of selecting play ers for the first team will commence. At a meeting held last evening D. P. Smythe was formally elected coach for another season, and the team will again be under his guidance. During the past two years Mr. Smythe has been able to Inspire the players with enthusiasm and getting good work out of them. As manager of the eleven for this season, Dean Goodman has been chosen, and will have charge of the financial end of the team, and also will arrange the schedulo to be play, ed. After much hesitancy George Strand, who played with the team for two seusons past, deolded last night to go to Whitman academy this year, and this morning left for Walla Walla to enter the school. However, while he will be missed from the Inenl team. It is not thought his ab sence will materially affeot the suc cess of the team, as there are several other prospective quarterbacks who will be tried out for his old position. Whether or not Scott will return to the high school this year Is not yet known. PASSION PLAY GIVEN. Realistic Si-enes Reproduced at St. Mary's Catliollc Church.
