Dick is fearlessly honest, open and aoove Doard. positive in his rule conduct, manly, successful, flehts his own battles, helps himself, gets the place of stroke on the crew, and wins GRIPPE Will Get You if You Don't Watch Out. The fact is, that when grippe or sfmalnr ailments get hold of you, you don't find It nut at once. The symp toms come after the disease has be gun to develop and a remedy should be used at once. Our F&S Cold Capsules if promptly used, will stop grippe and cold In the start. This remedy should nlwavs be kept on hand. FOR SALE BY Tallman & Co. Leading Druggist . GRATUITOUS m the girl of his heart by fair means, Dave Burly, on the other hand, is contemptible, sly, mean, underhanded, brutal, unsucessful in everything he undertakes, calls In outsiders (Clancy the prlseflghter and two assistants In the shape of village bums) to do what he cannot do himself "knock out" the champion. He comes for help in his Homer to the very man against whom he is plotting and whose place he tries to get On the boat, and is finally trundled out of town because he Is too mean to be locked up In the city Jail. SCHOOL BOARD CAUTIOUS. Will Choose Strong Man tot High School Vacancy. Thus far no one has been selected by the school board to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of Prof. Huff, principal of the high school. However, the board Is at work on the matter and It Is understood that a prlhscipal will be secured in the near future, though President Teutsch says no agreement of any kind has been reached in the matter yet.

Charles Cunningham, the ex-sheep king of eastern Oregon, in speaking of those sheepmen who are frequently found short of hay during the winter season, says they are "Chinook sheep men," says the Pilot Rock Record When asked what that meant, hs re plied: "There Is a certain class of men In the sheep business who de pend almost entirely upon the Chinook to save them from bankruptcy Instead of having on hand a goodly supply of hay. When I was In the ouslness never depended upon the chlnook. was always prepared for a hard win ter. I had warm barns for my sheep, which were cleaned out dally and fed them all the hay they would eat. was more than repaid In a good crop of wool arfd strong ewes, which meant strong lambs." Experience has taught most of the old flockmasters the wis dom of not depending upon the Chi nook. Freshet Weather (Joed for Sheepmen, From the Interior comes word that the chlnook is getting busy and the entire country will be flooded. A menage from Shanlko says that this wind and rainstorm came Just in time to prevent a big loss of she'sp as mime owners are entirety out of hay and arc feeling grain until hay can be shipped lr. A few hae feed enough to tide them over, but others have only enough for n few day?. The loss so far In that section is small, but with no outside communication the situation Is critical. Soma stock has been driven In for shipment nnd started for The Dalles In the hos-3 that lie blockade will ba broken. Stage lines are making heroic efforts to keep tiie roads open, but get through with much difficulty. The Dalles Chronicle. Part of Nampa Under Water. The tapping of the fire alarm tell brought the citizens of Nampa to the streets this morning at an earlier hour than had been their custom. The cause of the excitement was found to be that the rains and melting of snows on Indian creek had caused the creek to rise to such alarming proportions that men and teams were n constant demand for removing the property and people to higher ground. At this writing the waters are still quite high and the inhabitants on the Indian creek bottoms are seeking a place of safety. A man on horseback who crossed the creek In north Nam pa came near losing his life. While the horse was swimming the channel the rider was thrown off and had It not been for a companion with a long hoard who rescued him he might have been drowned. Nampa Leader. Coming Back to Inigon. Addison Bennett, editor of The Dalles Optimist, and auchor of the Rabbltvllle" letters, has disposed of his Interests at The Dalles and will return to Irrlgon, where ne has again become Interested In the- Irrlgon Ir rigator. Mr. Bennett haa neen at The Dalles for ovf a year and has built p a good paper of tha Optimist, but he feels that the irrigated section sur rounding Irrlgon offers even better opportunities than The Dalles, from newspaper standpoint, and will lo cate permanently at Irrlgon. rThENA nominated FULL QUOTA OF CANDIDATES FOR THE CITY OFFICES.

The Chicago Livestock World says of the sheep market: Lambs were steady; sheep strong. Fresh receipts were close to 30,000 and there was no disposition to set any of the scale houses on fire, but the market undertone was good and weather conditions propitious. East ern markets were more moderately supplied than for weeks past, and with seasonable weather conditions the trade looked huskier all along the line. All Indications pointed to a bet ter deal in sheep In the near future, the long period of liquidation being over. Choice lambs made 17.65, the bulk going over at 77.60. Peanut Iambs sold at J 7 and a fairly good grade at J7.301? 7.40. Feeding and shear: Ing lambs were popular, but not plen tiful. Lamb weight, 85-lh yearlings, sold at SS.S5 and the bulk at 6fr6.50, heavy 165-th yearlings going nt IB.2B. Exporters took fed sheep at J5.60 and a choice finished native wether was quotable at $6. Short-fed weth ers sold at $5.2Bff 5.35 anu good, fair sheep at J5.50. Exporters paid J5.50 for wethers that Justified a 5.65 quo tation on rsal good stuff. Common fed ewes were worth $4.50. good ewes $5 and a finished grade of fed stuff at J5.25, with fat native ewes nt $5. 50 and prime heavy quotable to $5.75, at which price some fancy breeding ewes sold. WATER FOWL DYING. Thousands of Duck Perished From Exluuwtlon in Sonthwnrd Flight. As a sequel to the story thnt thous ands of ducks were dying at the mouth or the Jordan river nt Salt Lake, printed a few days ago, the Salt Lake Republican of Friday says: The hun dreds of ducks that died and are still dying In the swamps near the" mouth of Jordan river did not come to their end from starvation. That Is the statement given out by Dr. R. W. Fisher of the University of Utah, after a careful investigation. Dr. FlHher said late Wednesday night that the vital organs of the ducks were in good condition, that they seemed healthy and that the specimens brought to him were far from show ing signs of starvation. "I did not Investigate the poison ing theory, as that Is left to Herman Harmes, who will report on the mat ter very soon. But I do not believe that they died from poisoning. It Is my opinion that the birds died from exhaustion. My theory Is that they were coming from the north, that they were caught by the terrific storm of a few weeks ago and were ex hausted, after flying around hunting for open water. I believe thnt they fell to the ground and some of them died before recovering, while others were strong enough to survive and will live." Siieialixt Organizer Coming. George H. Goebel, a socialist organ Izcr working under direction of the Oregon association, will arrive- from Walla Walla tomorrow and expects to address the local society tomorrow evening, although definite arrange ments have not yet been made for the meeting place.
