' Rogue River Valley, Jan. 18. We
hnve been hnvlntr all kind of weather
lately. After some weeks of eoM,
dump 'veather, with some feg, the
heavens opened Monday night and the
water followed the example of the
real estate and went on a boom.
HoRue river rose IS feet In 12 hours,
and quite a lot of real estate took a
tumble. Wednesday morning the
whole valley was covered with three
or four Inches of snow, but too wet
for good sleighing. The moisture
was needed, but comes too late to ben
efit the farmers much now. but of
course they think It makes water sure
for next spring.
The Southern Pacific railroad Is
having lots of trouble on each side of
us, with slides, cavelns, etc. There Is
hardly a day but there are accidents
of more or less magnitude. I crossed
the Slskiyous recently and, was Jut-t
ready to cross again, when this storm
began. From what I saw on my for
mer trip I concluded to wait until the
storm was over. . The road posses
through a number of tunnels, one of
them nearly a mile in length, and In
one place It makes a horseshoe, cross
ing Its own track, the lower one being
In a tunnel. Coming this way one
can toss a stone from the Car win
dow onto the lower track. They keep
a strong force of trackwalkers, yet
one breaths more freely when they
get through.
The Shasta valley was covered with
snow, but many of Its features re
minded me of the Tutnllla country in
Umatilla county, save that It l long
er and the mountains run parallel on
each side. There are miles and miles
of level land covered with shor:
ereasewood. Indicating more or less
alkali.
On the west side .there are large
tract which seem to be farmed, but
not many large straw stacks. Occa
sionally large ricks of alfalfa are seen
surrounded by large bunches of cat
tle. , There seems to be little, If any.
grass, but an abundance of foxtail
From the number of dams acroBs
the little runs, I Judge water Is scarce
In summer, and everything points to
the prevalence of lots of wind. The
houses are mostly shingled on the
windward side, and the fences weight
ed down with atone. In fact, at Weed,
where I stopped awhile, thev told me
the wind ripped the shingles off the
roofB sometimes.
There are a number of small towns
in the valley, and one of them, Mon
tague, Is much such a town as Echo,
and In much such a country, minus
the river.
At Hornbrook the railroad company
hus a car barn for their helper en
gines, and ns they bum oil Instead of
coal, they have an oil tank holding
15.000 barrelw.
Weed, wh.-re I was stopping, is In
a pocket In the mountains at the foot
of ML Shasta. I could not learn for
sure how far from the summit, but
my guess is eight miles. It Is just
two miles , almost , perpendicularly
nbnve camp, and In plain view; one
ran see the snow blowing around the
peak very plainly.
The Weed Lumber company has a
plant there where they cut 240,000
feet of lumber per day, and now hove
In their yards several million feet of
lumber.
They have a large box factory and
nre building a dry kiln, a dry house, a
large sash and dnor factory and ex
pect to have 100 good cottages for
their employes by October 1, next.
They have a store, hotel, two large
btink house with boarding houses in
connection. They own the land and
allow no whiskey within their lines.
I think of going south as far as
Stockton soon, and will moke some
notes on the way.
I received a letter some time since
from R. R. Tlxon, formerly of the
Fair Store In Pendleton. He is now
In Log Angeles and tells me that place
and the whole country, for ithat mat
ter, Is on a tremendous boom, and
many people of small means are com
ing there and losing nil they have.

had gone to school.. As the old woman
was putting the blue dishes away In
the kitchen safe, there was a rap at
the door. Intent on her work, the
old woman. If she heard, paid no at

She opened the door.
On the threshold stood two women.
strangers In Bountiful. One was
robed In smart furs, the other was
plainly a servant of the upper class.
"We wish to buy some chickens and

'And who are you" she concluded.
peering at the couple through stecl
rlmmed spectacles.
'This lady Is Madame Calve, the
great singer," answered the maid.
"Madame Calve?" repeated the
housekeeper. Incredulity In her tone,
for Madame Calve's fame had pene
trated even to the little rtnh home.
and she could not believe the great
singer really stood before her. Any
doubt she may have had was swiftly
dlspelh'd.
In the corner of the room stood
an old, old piano, its legs scarred by
thoughtless children of many genera
tions. Its keys yellowed by time. To
the piano Madame Calve walked and
struck a chord. If the ancient Instru
ment was sadly out of tune the won
derful singer gave no sign. To a
soft accomponlment .of her own she
sang a folk song of the French.
The Bweet, pure notes filled the
plain room with melody; the very
walls seemed to drink In the sound.
Madame Calve, she who receives a
thousand dollars from a grand dame
for a single song nt a muslcnle, was
singing her glorious best for a simple
country woman. There was a mist
In the old woman's eyes when the
singer finished, but without a word
she hurried out of the house.
The next moment mistress and
mnld heard sounds that could not
come except from chickens In ex
tremis. And presently the old woman
enme back. She carried two chickens
and a basket of eggs.
"Take them, madame." she said,
"take them as a token from me."
That Is why Madame Cnlve, in her
private car on a siding nt Bountiful,
had an omelette of fresh eggs; that
Is why tender chicken was on her bill
of fare next day,
And that Is why a bent old woman
at Bountiful Is cherishing In the
warmest corner of her heart a beau
tiful, beautiful memory.
COTTON GROWERS' DV.XTAGE.
The Rears and Spinner Have Lost
Tliolr Advantage.
New York, Jan. 24. For the first
time in history the American cotton
growers are In the fortunate position
to dictate to the spinners and cotton
goods manufacturers. The spinners
and manufacturers, realizing this fact,
decided to ask the cotton producers
to meot them In conference for the
purpose of arranging some comprom
ise regarding the price of cotton. In
accordance with this decision repre
sentatives of the New England, the
Manchester. England, and the Amer
ican association of Southern Cotton
Spinners met the representatives of
the Southern Cotton association In
conference In this city. President
Hurvle Jordan, of the Southern Cot
ton association, is here and will at-
tend the conference, which may last
several days.
The situation Is rather peculiar.
When the Southern Cotton association
met in September of last year, it
fixed the minimum price at 11 cents
pound. The bears .and spinners.
taking advantage of the Immediate
needs of the southern farmers and
cotton planters, drove the price down
to 0.50. As It Is now, even If the rest
of the crop should be sold nt 15 cents
the general average would not be fair
to the farmers. But. now, the cotton
growers hnve the bears and spinners
at their mercy.
The spot situation is absolutely
dominated by the men who produced
the cotton and this In the face of the
fact that at tho beginning of the sea
son they were confronted with the
prospect of a 1 4.000, 000-bnle crop.
The spinners are fnaklng more now
on 12-cent cotton than they ever did
on 5-cent cotton. The mills would
not suffer. It Is said, even if the bal
ance of the crop should be sold at 15
cents a pound. There were 6, 000. 000
new spindles In the south last year.

Bishop E. J. O'Dea has just dedi

North Yakima, says the Catholic
Sentinel of Portland.
The new church was started In
1903 when Rev. B. Feust, S. J., was
pastor. In 1904 Bev. A. Diomedl, S.
J., continued the building till it was

its seating capacity about 700. The
extraordinary growth of the Catholic
congregation In the last two years

The present cost of the building Is
$35,000. Apart from the high altar,
stained windows and pipe organ, the
church Is completely furnished. The
Catholics of North Yakima are justly
proud of their grand achievement in
putting up such a substantial build

Who Gets the Most
Out of Life?
Not the wealthiest, not the most learned, nor the idler but the
man who has good health and works for his living. This truth is
trite, but not trivial.
Every man should guard his health as his most valuable posses
sion. The more so because health is easier to retain than regain.
Keep your grip on health by regular exercise, reasonable care
in easing and requisite sleep. Take Beecham's Pills occasionally,
to tone the stomach and keep the liver and bowels in good working
