Illrtt Miner at North Yakima Be
Hclged With Letter.
Sam Blackburn, the Alaska mining
man who is In North Yakima hunt
ing a wife, Is meeting with much suc
cess as fur as offers are concerned,
says the Yakima Republic. Since the
Republic printed the last story con
cerning the man he has received in
the neighborhood of 20 letters and no
end of telephone calls.
He says Yakima girls write nice
letters and he Is pleased with the at
tention shown him. He is heartily
convinced of the merits of advertis
ing und remarked In a casual way
thut the Republic reaches all the peo
ple, because his letters came from
people In every walk of life.
Some of the letters received are
funny. One "charming little widow"
asked the good natured Sam If he
would enter any objection to six chil
dren. "Tlu-y are dear little things," she
writes, "and I know you would love
them. Their papa has been dead only
a year and the little fellows are so
lonesome without him. If you should
decide to locate in North Yakima the
children would be very little bother
to you.
"This Is a good commuunlty In
which to rear them. I know you
would be very proud of them. Three
are girls and three are boys. The
oldest one Is 8. You see they are
quite matured and would, In a very
short time, be self-supporting. Please
let me hear from you right away. I
am anxious to see you and have a big,
long talk with you. The children
send love and best wishes.
"P. S Willie has a sore throat. If
you come out this afternoon would
you mind bringing out a bottle of
Mrs. Wlnslow's soothing syrup?"
Mr. Blackburn is In the country to
day looking for land with Jack Ma
her. This morning's mall brought
five more letters to the popular Alas
ka man. He s saying little, but ap
pears to be thinking hard. He says
he Is much pleased with the country
and says he will In all probability set
tie down here and become a true
Yakima booster.
suite RMttry Now Sanitary.
By an amicable adjustment of dif
ferences between the governor and
prison officials, and the Northwi st
ern Stove works, draft ventilation Will
be Introduced that will remove all
criticisms on the ground of unsani
tary conditions under which some of
the convicts have worked, says the
Salem Journal. The criticism has
been directed against the air In the

partment. The new ventilating system
applies to the whole shops, and will
be Installed at once.

Saturday by Tom Smith of Stayton,

William Tripp, one of the box car
robbers arrested at Hermlston a few
days ago, will go to Salem for a two
years' stay in the penitentiary, while
his pal, Bert F.llllnt, will go free upon

This afternoon Elliot and Tripp
were arraigned In court and both
pleaded guilty to the charges against
them. Thereupon Judge Bean Impos
ed a two years' sentence upon each,

Portland People Describe Conditions
In Canal Zone.
Dr. J. A. Pettlt, who, with his wife
and Mr. and Mrs. C. H. McNeelan of
Portland, made a trip recently to
Panama, has returned t o Portland
very favorably Impressed with the
country and the work that the Unit
ed States government Is doing there,
says the Oregon Daily Journal. Dr.
Pettlt and Mr. McNeelan also bought
considerable timber land below the
City of Panama, which, he saya, can
be secured with a good title and at
very reasonable figures.
The timber that Dr. Pettit bought
is hardwood that will be very valu
able within a few years. It Is quite
accessible and thought by Mr. Pettlt
to be a fortunate purchase. Although
the tract acquired has not been sur
veyed the physician says his holdings
In Panama timber lands can be esti
mated in square miles much easier
than In acres
The party spent three weeks on the
canal zone. According to Dr. Pettlt
the cities In the canal zone are clean
er and more sanitary than Is the city
of New Orleans. The work on the
canal project is In a very satisfactory
condition, and he says there Is no
longer any difficulty In obtaining la
bor. About 6.000 men were employed
by the government at the time Dr.
Pettlt was In Panama. The steam
slievels could excavate faster than the
trains could carry away the dirt.
"The material taken from the canal
Is used to fill the swamps about Col
on, Panama and other cities in the
canal zone," says Dr. Pettlt. "There
are no longer any dangers from yel
low fever or malaria, and the mosqui
toes, that were for so long the con
firmed pest In Panama, are scarce.
The social life of the Americans at
Parfama Is a pleasant one, and many
people have gone there to live, and
tvlll make It their home for the rest
of their lives, undoubtedly."
Dr. Pettlt and his party Journeyed
far Into the Interior and saw how the
natives live In their crude villages In
the forests. The party went by way
of Xew Orleans.

Three years ago Mr. Bonnettl vis
ited Boise and looked over the city,
intending to go Into business here.
After a careful Inspection he decided
that Boise was not the place for him
and went to Pendleton, where he es
tablished a store. It took him three
years to discover that Boise was not
such a bad place after all and accord
ingly he sold out In the Oregon city
and returned here. He had not been
here for three years until his recent
arrival and he was greatly surprised
at the lmpovementsthat had been
