Lost In the wilds of the mountain
ous Rfctlon of the North Fork coun
try taut of Dent, Edward Martin, a
youth 17 years of age, committed
suicide Bometlme Sunduy night by
Hhoot ng hlniBolf through the head
with a Winchester rifle that he wus
carrying In search of deer, says the
Lewlston Teller.
The story of the suicide was brought
to the city last night by W. II. Mct
nult. who was a member of the
searching party that followed the
tracks of the unfortunate boy
through the snow until the body was
found in Elk creek canyon.
Murtln had started out for a deer
hunt with L. Ferguson of Peck, and
after the pair had traveled for a con
siderable d stance they encountered
the track of a deer and also of an
elk. Ferguson started In pursuit of
the elk and Martin followed the deer,
but nfterwards returned to the camp
where he secured lunch 'and then
started to follow the tracks of Fer
guson, who was In pursuit of the elk
Tbe nearchers found he had fol
lowed these tracks to within half a
mile . of where ho would have over
taken the hunter and then, turned In
to Elk creek canyon. He descended
Into the canyon and evidently at
tempted to again reach the highlands
for the tracks In the snow told the
story of his persistent efforts to
climb the steep mountain sides, but
the slippery snow Impeded his pro
gress and he would slide to the bot
tom again. The point where the body
was found shows where he had fall
en from a log and It is believed In
Juries sustained by this fall made
further travel Impossible, and In the
moment of despair he placed the
muazle of the rifle In his mouth and
pulled the trigger.
Mr. McN'utt states It Is almost Im
possible to bring the body from the
place where the suicide occurred,
nnd Ms purpose In Lewlston ts for
tbe purpose of communlcat'ng with
'the boy's mother In Cleveland, O., to
ascertain her wishes In tbe mntter,

III PUBLIC SCHOOLS
The following article on the study
cf newspapers In schools was written
for "The School and Home," an ex
cellent school Journal of Portland, by
Bert Huffman, editor of the East Ore
gonlan: While there are now perhaps too
many studies in the public school
course of study In Oregon, I firmly
believe that there Is yet room and
time In the public school for a brief
review of the current news in the
grades above the ' fifth.
A few moments' review of current
events world-wide, national and lo
cal frpm the representative news
papers available to each school, will
not only relieve the monotony of
itudylng the school branches, but tt
will "add zest to the day's work, di
versifying the knowledge gained each
day and broaden the child's mind.
It is marvelous to see pupils of the
fifth, sixth and seventh grades, those
who do not ordinarily make a prac
tice of reading papers and following
current events, grasp from day to day
the general scope of world events,
after a few weeks' drilling in newspa
per review In school.
By no means should the sensation
al, the objectionable, the criminal
news of the day be discussed In
school, nor admitted In review. The
wholesome, uplifting, really histori
cal events which take place dally In
every part of the world, offer every
Inducement to pupils to follow up the
complex, yet fascinating story of
world movement.
Girls become Interested In the
lives and doings of rulers and their
families, ' and In the biographies of
prominent people; In art, science,
school history, school progress and

j other kindred topics, and will remem
! ber facts gleaned from the dally press
i with greater ease than those gleaned
from books. The newspaper's story
,is part of the present; It appeals to
today's thought, Is part of today s en
vironments. Boys are Interested In war, battles,
storms, inventions, political move
ments and other kindred subjects, and
the newspaper review not only gives
them a diversion in school study, but
it keeps them in step with current
events, makes them abler and read
ier debaters, keener students and
more capable of receiving the fullest
benefit from school studies.
It has been noticed, where a daily
review of current events has been in
troduced into the schools, that those
students which took most Interest In
this review were most successful In
debates In composition, In Eng
lish, rhetoric and literature.
The study of telegraphic news and
editorial opinions, expressed In every
day terms, Interspersed with practi
cal Illustrations and forcible expres
sions, broadens the vocabulary.
strengthens the mental grasp and
gives a freshness and vigor to the
mind which Is not to be found In text
books. ,
Text books are the bone and sinew
of an education, to be sure, but they
lack that lively flush of activity and
versatility, that tinge of actual life
which la gained from contact with the
living world, and which completes the
perfect figure of an education.
Just as the young physician, who
has tolled through dry volumes, needs
the actual touch of the human spe
cies, the experience of doing things
with his own hands, before his pro
fesslonal education Is completed, so
does the student of the common
branches need the exhlleratlon of the
actual, throbbing current of today's
happenings to give him a thorough
understanding of his "book learning,"
to properly and adequately fit him to
make sane comparisons, to draw sane
conclusions.
I believe that 20 minutes each day
devoted to a review of current events
In the public schools of Oregon, will
have more weight and Influence In
making good citizens, sensible voters
and well balanced men and women,
than perhaps, any other 20 minutes
of the school day.
This is saying very much, It may
seem, but try to compare any other
subject with this 20 rrunute review of
the living, moving, history-making,
world-developing forces of today, and
we see how this subject towers sky
high above all others.

IKm't Mistake the Cause of Your
Troubles A Citizen or Pendleton
Slious How to Cure Them.
Many people never suspect their
kidneys. If suffering from a lame,
weak or aching back they think that
it Is only a muscular weakness; when
urinary trouble sets In they think It
will soon correct Itself. And so It Is
with all the other symptoms of kid
ney disorders. That Is Just where the
danger lies. You must cure these
troubles or they may lead to diabetes
or Brlght's disease. The best remedy
to use Is Doan's Kidney Pills. It
cures all Ills which are caused by
weak or diseased kidneys. Pendle
ton people testify to permanent cures.
Mrs. Arthur Hammer, living at
717 Aura street, Pendleton, Oregon,
says: "For the last five years
Doan's Kidney Pills, which I pro
cured at the Pendleton Drug Co.,
have been Just as effective In elimi
nating back aches ns they wore when
they first came to my notice in the
spring of 1903. Doon's Kidney Pills
proved conclusively to me when I
recommended them to my friends
that they were a reliable remody and
I still vouch for their merit as I
have the greatest confidence In
them."
