STATE SU'EKINTKNDKNT DEAD.
It, B, Bryan of WlAlngton Drops
Demi With Appoplexy.
The Yakima Republic says of the
sudden death of State Superintend
ent R. B. Bryan of Washington, who
was well known In Pendleton:
Robert Bruce Bryan, state superin
tendent of public Instruction, died of
upoplexy Tuesday morning at 9:30
o'clock at St. Elizabeth's hospital In
this city. He was stricken Friday ut
his ranch at Wapato and remained
unconscious until his deuth. The
body will be taken to Olympla, where
I Masonic funeral service will be con
ducted, and from there to Montesano,
where It will be Interred with mili
tary honors by the Montesano Post
of the G. A. R. of which he was a
member.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan came to tlio
Yakima valley three weeks ago and
went to their fruit ranch at Wupato.
Mr. Bryan had been In 111 health and
his physiean had ordered him to take
a complete mental aud physical rest.
Friday, alarmed by his absence, Mrs.
Bryan searched for him and found
him unconscious, lying In the sage
brush near the Irrigation ditch on
hll property.
She at once arranged for the am
bulance from North Yakima to bring
the stricken man to the hospital here.
Though his condition was known to
be serious, Mrs. Bryan, who had nurs
ed him through previous sicknesses
of a similar kind, felt assured that he
would surmount this attack.
Previously, through the winter his
health had been excellent and he had
Increased greatly In weight und
strength. His vitality failed so rap
idly, however, after Friday that on
Sunday all hope of his recovery was
abandoned.
Founded suite BfantJottal system.
Mr Bryan was practically the foun
der of the educational system of this
state. He' was Its first superintendent
of public Instruction and laid the
foundation on which the present edu-
catlnal structure is being erected.
Aiucn or the legislation on school
matters originated with him and his
energy, executive ability und enthu
siasm In his work have shanerf iho
course of taching in Washington. Save
for a. period of six years after lvs
first term, he has been at the head of
the state work In his department
since Washington was a territory.
Mr. Bryan was a native of Ohio and
would have been 66 years old on Au-.
gust 1, next. He received his early
education in the public schools of
Ohio and Iowa.
cade mountains in the northwest. The
county of Wasco, was organised by
the territorial legislature on Jan
uary 11, 1854, five yean before the
state was admitted to the union. It
extended from the Cascade mountains
to the summit of the Rockies and
comprised all of Oregon and Wash
ington east of the Cascades and por
tions of what are now known as Ida
ho, Wyoming and Montana. Election
returns for the county are on record
from Walla Walla and other preclncte
In Washington and even from some in
Idaho and Montana. Subpoena,
were filed which were served on wit
nesses at Fort Hall and different
places hundreds of miles distant, for
cases held In the old Wasco county
court house.
"The historical building Is the only
remaining building of the Old Fort
Dalles, established in 1860. The first
buildings were of log and mostly built
by the Rifle regiment, which came to
Oregon In 1849. The post was va
cated at the beginning of the civil
war and the new buildings were
gradually destroyed until only one re
mains. By an act of congress this
was secured for a historical museum
to The Dalles, the title being vetted
in the Oregon Historical society In
1904.

On Thursday before a large assem

Mayor J. L. .Kelly, of The Dalles,

the history were also deposited some

ine oia court house has been used
by the city for many years
since the erection of the modern

LAND F1IJNGS INCREASE.
Idaho Shows Great Activity in Xev
Settlements.
In both homestead and desert en
tries the Boise land office has ex
perienced a decided Increase this year
over that of last, that Is comparing
the first three months pf each re
spective year, says the Boise Capital
Xews.
This Is accounted for by the un
usual activity in the southern part of
the state on irrigation projects. As
each new segregation is made by the
state or government the land Is
thrown open for entry and landseek
ers immediately go to the offices of
registration and making their filings.
The homestead entries seem to have
been more popular than those of the
desert class as is shown by the fol
lowing figures:
During the months of January,
February and March of this year 85
desert entries have been made at the
local land office. There are two more
lays left in the present month in
which to file on desert tand and up
to the present time there have been
35 entries this month.
During March of 1907 there were
only 11 desert entries registered as
shown by the records. It is expected
that during April of this year there
will be a larger number of desert en
tires than during March owing to the
influx of people from the east Into
the southern part of the state.
The homestead entry register rium
that 111 filings have been made dur-j
mg ine present month. For M.nei,
oi last year there were 106 entries.
The total number of entries for Jan
uary i ', i ...I - .
' j u xuurcil or l!HIN
number 270. an Increase over the en
tries of the first three months of
1907.

Bilious Troubles
Bile causes no end of trouble. Sick headaches, bilious attacks,
jaundice, constipation and many distressing ailments arise from an excess
of bile, or from obstruction of the bile duct. Inactivity, sedentary occu
pations and indiscretion in feeding and drinking are bile blunders that
need to be guarded against. When the liver is disordered the best bile
correctives are
BEECHAM'S PILLS
because they relieve the overworked liver, and gentiy stimulate it when
it is sluggish. These pills control the flow of bile, restore its right con
sistency, and work for the immediate and lasting benefit of the stomach,
bowels and blood. Whenever a furred tongue, dull, yellowish eyes,
nausea, or headache indicate bilious conditions, use Beecham's Pills at
once, to correct the bile and
