Ltgging and Sawmill Supplies to Itc Manufactured Near Portland. W. D. Hofius, one of the wealthiest citizens of Seattle and head of the concern known all over the northwest as Hofius & Co., dealing In logging railway construction supplies and lo comotives, will establish headquarters In Portland and build extensive ware houses, says the Oregon Dally Jour nal. Today the company's Portland agent. M. F. Brady, closed the pur chase of about Iff acres of ground and 60 feet of water frontage on the Wil lamette river. The site is at the foot of McKenna avenue, between the Peninsula Lum ber company's mill and the Standard Oil company's plant The deal was mnde by F. I. McKenna for the own ers of the property, James Olsen and W. W. Curtis. The price paid was $12,600. The ground is regarded as Ideal for the purpose stated. It Is accessible to shipping, and the frontage la suf ficient for a good sized dock. The O. R. 4 N. company's St. Johns line runs through It and the Northern Pa cific has surveyed a route along the river bank for a St. Johns connection. Rapid development of the logging and sawmill Interests of Oregon Is ex pected to follow the great demand that has arisen for Pacific northwest timber products. It Is said that with in the next five years there will be five great sawmills operating for every one mill now In Oregon. This will mean vast development In Oregon logging operations, and Hofius & Co. nre preparing to make Portland one of their two principal places of busi ness. WOOL FOR JAPAN. Another Customer for the American Sheepman. Consul Geenral Bray, of Melbourne, reports an Interview with Dr. F. Otake, a Japanese manufacturer. In regard to the future supply of raw wool for Japan. In It one Is led to look upon Japan as a future buyer and manipulator of large quantities of Australian, South Afrlcon and other wools. It all goes to show that those who looked upon the Industrial develop' ment of Japan as Imminent wrn-e right. There are grave questions that the future will have to face In all parts of the orient, and the largest Is not a long way off from the spin dies and looms of China and Japan. The people are marvelously patient persistent, and, above all, capable, Their finger skill Is not surpassed by that of any people on earth. This, backed by cheap labor, Is bound to give the Orient advantages against which the nations of the west will find It difficult to contend. The re port follows: According to a newspaper report Dr. Otake stated that Japan Is likely In the near future to be one of the best customers of Australia In the matter of wool. Formerly the Japan ese used to buy their wool In London, but of late they have been making most of their purchases In Australia. They have also been buying Indian and Chinese wools, but these are of poor quality, and there Ib no doubt that before long they win oe replaced, as far as Japan 4s concerned, by the Australian product which, on the whole, Is regarded as the best to be obtained anywhere. Dr. Otake con slders, however, that the South Amer ican wool Is better adapted for cer lain classes of materials. There seems to be no likelihood of Japan growing Its own wool. Norn time ago a systematic attempt to breed sheep was made under the direction of experts from South America, but the experiment failed conspicuously for several reasons. One of these was that the Japanese do not like mutton; but, in the opin ion of Dr. Otake, the failure Is of no importance. "It Is not worth while to breed sheep," he observes, "seeing that Australia Is so near; besides, the Panama canal will reduce the dis tance from Argentina. No, we shall always buy our wool, and not grow It, and the demand will be a steady one. "We shall want a good deal of wool In future, for In addition to the gov ernment mill, there are now five pri vately owned mills In Japan, and the number will Increase." The Senju mill, which employs 2000 hands, male and female, was founded about 20 years ago by the govern ment In order to introduce the woolen manufacture into Japan. HELL IS A MYTH. Dr. 8. M. Martin Explains Meaning of Scriptures. Dr. S. M. Martin, who held revival meetings In this city two years ago, and who Is now conducting meetings In Portland, preached a sermon on the subject of "Hell," Sunday night, In which he declares the literal hell believed In by many people, to be a pure myth, since the picture of this place too often depicted by the imag ination, Is not sustained by the mean ing of the scripture. The Oregon Daily Journal gives the following re view of the sermon: Dr. S. M. Martin, In his sermon last night on "Hell," demonstrated con clusively to an audience that crowded the First Christian church, the char acter, existence and 'duration of hell. He used as a text a passage from Blackstone's commentaries, wherein It is stated that in the vindicatory part of a law consists the main strength and force of that law. He argued that the principles of right and Jus tice are fixed, and law Is merely an expression of these rules. God's laws, however, are omnipotent and unchanging. "We have In the Old Testament" said Dr. Martin, "two words to repre sent hell. The first Is sheol, which is found 31 times in the Old Testament, and translated 29 times it means hades, and the remaining two times it means death. There is In the Old Testament the word tophat, which oc curs 10 times, and translated means the place of dreams. Sheol Is the Greek word for hades, and Is found 1 1 times In the New Testament. Ten times It Is translated hell, and once It Is translated grave. "It means the grave, or death the unseen or under-world. The equiva lent of the word tophat In the New Testament Is the Greek word gehen- na. The first syllable is valley, and the balance of the word has reference to hinnom, the other name for the palace of dreams. The word gehen na Indicates the place, or condition. It does not Indicate a literal existence of a fire and brimstone hell. Nobody be lieves in that. It Is simply a figurative reference to the awful condition of the wicked In. their future state. "The allusions to heaven as con taining streets that are paved with gold, with pearly gates and a river of life flowing through the midst of the golden thoroughfares, are but figura tive expressions of the Infinitely glori ous state or residence of the soul who Is rewarded for righteousness and good deeds. It Is but to give us a faint Idea of its glories and its Joys. So with hell. The descriptions of a lake that burns forever and eternally with nre and brimstone is but figurative."

WHO SHE WAS SKETCH OF THE LIFE And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73" Caiued it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores. This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estea, was born in Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, com ing from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and became known as a woman of an alert and Investigating- mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa thetic nature. In 1843 she married Is&ao Plnkham, a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature's own remedies calling in a physician only in specially argent esses. By tradition and ex perience many of them gained a won derful knowledge of the curative prop erties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Plnkham took a great interest In the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so bountifully provides in the harvest fields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds ; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies ex pressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medi cines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combina tion of the choicest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses pecu liar to the female sex, and Lydia E. Pink ham's friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among them. All this so far was done freely, with out money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centen nial year dawned it found their prop arty swept away. Some other source f Income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound was made known to the world. The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to The Svunior "Swamped." Dan Shuguru, a resident of Pasco, who has been' following the vocation of swamper in the Mint saloon at that placed yesterday, was picked up yesterday morning by John Cochran, lying In the road seven miles east of Walla Walla, near Dixie, says the Walla Walla Union. Shuguru was nearly dead from exposure, and had been wallowing around In the snow until he had It beaten down for sev eral feet in every direction. Mr. Cochran brought him to Walla Walla and turned him over to the county I Better Bargains Yet THERE ARE STILL TEN DAYS OF OUR CLEARANCE SALE.

Store Main Street, Pendleton OF LYDIA E PINKHAM restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friesds and neighbors waa equally good for tha women of the whole world. The Ptnkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlet setting forth the merits of the medi cine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham'a Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertising, for whoever nsed it recommended it to others, and tha de mand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the fam ily had saved enough money to com mence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, nntil to day Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vege table Compound have become house hold words everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are nsed annu ally in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years sgo, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have dona it herself. During her long and eventful expe rience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful to pre serve a record of every case that came to her attention. The case of every sick woman who applied to her for advice and there were thousands received careful study, and the details, includ ing symptoms, treatment and result were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collabora tion of information regarding tha treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in any library in tha world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked he daughter-in-law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell tha direction of the work when its origins tor passed away. For nearly twenty five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when tha first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of a large family, took it np. With worrsgn. assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues thiB great work. and probably from the office of no othei person have so many women been ad vised how to regain health. Hick wo men, this advice is "Yours for Health freely given if you only write to aall for it. Such is the history of Lydia E.
