Ross, assistant general passenger agent of the Great Northern, who is In the city today, says the Spokane Chron icle. "These devices tell at what speed the train travels over every mile of track and registers accurately the length of stops. They are an exact check on the actions of a train crew. "Our Oriental Limited trains. No. 1. west bound, and No. 2, eastboOnd, are now carrying almost entirely new equipment of the latest designs, added gradually during the last few months and are positively the flneFt trains running across the western states. The equipment formerly on the Ori ental trains has been put on Nos. 3 and 4, thus advancing materially the standard of those trains."

Athena BtrthdKjr Party. A pleasant "birthday surprise party was tendered Miss Laura Mclntyre at her home In Athena this week, on the occasion of her 17th birthday.

Miss Mclntyre was presented with a beautiful bloodstone ring by her young friends and the evening was passed in music and games, at the close of which refreshments were :ervej. That the people of Umatilla county are not greatly hampered for money In spite of last fall's financial flurry Is shown by the heavy tax payments that were made during the three per cent rebate period. At the sheriffs office the deputies have now completed posting all the payments made and according to Deputy A. C. Funk, a total of $266, 000 was paid In during the rebate period. The total tax for the year Is $350,000. Last year only a total of $220,000 was paid in during the rebate period, while the total tax for the year was $288,000. Many tax payments are now being received at the sheriff's office by those who take advantage of the half payment offer. Under this plan a tax payer may pay half his taxes now and half by October 1 without being sub ject to either penalty or Interest. Many large concerns take advantage of this provision and thereby secure the use of half their tax money until fall. As fast as the money Is received at the sheriffs office it Is turned over to the treasurer and as a result of the heavy payments made Treasurer Brad ley will soon be able to call many outstanding warrants. According to Mr. Bradley, he will shortly call for all general fund war rants registered prior to January 1, 1907, and for all road warrants now outstanding. He Is now engaged In paying off $20,000 In road warrants. During the spring several calls for general fund warrants will be made. and according to the treasurer, he will be able to take up all warrants out standing longer than 10 months. County la Prosperous. That the county now has but about $100,000 In outstanding warrants was declared this morning by Treasurer Bradley and he holds that such an in debtedness Is trifling compared with the business and wealth of the coun ty. He says the outstanding war rants merely represent the current debt of the county and properly speaking the county cannot be consid ered as in debt. , Some People Expect New Shoes to Hurt And they are seldom disappointed. They buy that kind. The fact that a shoe should feel comfortable from the start Is unknown to them because they have never felt the luxury of putting on a rightly made shoe. They overlook the fact that a Hanan Shoe at its price gives the wear of two pairs of the unscientific made kind they buy. They forget, also, that a Hanan Shoe offers more real comfort when new than other kinds of shoes offer after months of wear that It starts out a smart, stylish shoe and ends Just as smart and styl ish. There are not so many such people as there used to be. We , know this because we sell so many more Hanan Shoes than we used. Maybe you would like to prove these facts. We'll help you with a correct fit. ROOSEVELT'S Boston Storo Where You Trade to Save POWER COMPARED TO LONDON'S Dr. liOteuberger to Portland. Dr. J. G, M.

The electricity generated by the power plants in Spokane during 1)07 was more than one-third as much as that used In London in the same year, according to figures shown by D. L. Huntington, vice president and gen eral manager of the Washington Wa ter Power company, says the Spokesman-Review. "The figures on the output of the kilowatt hours In London were brought to my notice by a man who got them from statistical reports,' said Mr. Huntington. "This total out put in 190? In the metropolitan po lice area of London for power, heat ing and lighting was 213,174,279 kilowatt hours. The output of mu nicipal plants was 87,995,001 kilo watt hours and of private companies, 125,379,278. The combined output of the Washington Water Power com pany's plants at Spokane and at Post Falls was 79,156,306 kilowatt hours I think it is probable that figures shown for London do not Include the electricity used for the operation of streetcars. They nre slgnlflcent, however, as showing the extent to which electricity Is used In Spokane and vicinity as compared with a cen ter about 25 times as populous." of Indians who are in the city today, and there was no thought of any thing unusual until the strange will was brought to light after his death.
