Indian Dave found a peculiar growth
of a young potato in the garden on the
Rinearson place the other day. Dur
ing its embryonic period the potato
had evidently made its start in the
center formed by the handle ring of a
rusty old door key that had been lost
and covered beneath the plow or hoe.
It continued to grow until the key
handle ring had become the center of
a potato. The tuber continued to
grow out evenly from each side of the
key ring' until the curiosity was un
earthed by Indian Dave. Oregon City

it did when but f aw were running in

THK WOOL SITUATION.
Rather Mom Encouraging OntlooK for
Grower.
The New York Wool Record of the
5th extends some encouragement to
wool growers that they will realize
better prices for their clips before the
end of the month. In reference to
the outlook, it says:
"While the depression in the wool
trade is as pronounced now as ever be
fore, so far as sales are concerned,
conservative wool (tellers who bave
heretofore maintained a gloomy view
of the situat;,i, now express them
selves as firmly convinced that July
will mark the beginning of a general
improvement. The trade marvels at
tbe prolongation of the depression in
the face of the presence of such en
couraging conditions. It is only a
question of a couple of weeks when
buyers will be prominent in the mar
ket. July is a month in which manu
facturers generally take a record of
their stock, which will be accompanied
by a more active demand.
"The situation in a nutshell de
pends on the consumptive capacity of
tbe people for the goods. The country
is stronger today, both financially and
commercially, than it has been in
years, and tbe increased demands of
the people must be met. The presant
situation represents a struggle be
tween manufacturer and dealer, with
odds on the later. The manufacturer
must supply the couutry's demand for
woolens, and of course must have raw
material to do so. As far as staying
qualities are concerned, the dealer has
the advantage.
"Everything seems to indicate tbat
the people in general are more able,
financially, to absorb the products of
tbe woolen mills than they bave been
at any other previous peiiod in the
history of the country. The prospect
of another agricultural output of great
magnitude, and the outlook abroad
just the reverse, is sufficient to sustain
the assertion that the export trade for
the fiscal year will be equally as large,
if not larger, than the fiscal year 1S98,
The exports of the manufacturers not
only exceed the figures of any other
year, but for the first time in the his
tory of the country exceed the imports,
This shows that not only are American
manufacturers gaining prestige in
foreign markets, but that domestic
consumption . is increasing as a re
sult of the displacemeut of importa
tions.
"The clip for the present year will
not be excessively large, and the fact
that the free wool imported has not
been increased to any extent from for
eign sources, would naturally lead one
to the conclusion that the supply of
wool in the country is considerably
below tbe average. Another strong
point in favor of woolens is the notice
able decrease in the imports of
woolen goods, which has been more
pronounced recently than at any time
since the latter part of August. That
these foreign goods have been practic
ally consumed is evident from custom
house statistics, which show that
slightly over 82,000,000 worth remains
in bond. An increased consumption
for domestic products, it is Bafe to as
sume, will fottow- the exhaustion of
foreign wool supplies,"

UOOD ROADS AND THEIR VALUE.
Sensible Suggestions From One of the
Business Men.
Ed.Timks-Mocntainber:
The absolute necessity of good roads
should be forcibly impressed on the
farming population of the locality
north and south of here, as well as
upon the marchants of The Dalles.
All concede - now-a-days the great
value of good roads. Tbe initial ex
penseis the great impediment in the
way of procuring them. With a blunt
ness of perception that is anything but
creditable, tbe farmer prefers to main
tain the old and useless system of
"working out road tax," under which
roads are kept in continuous disrepair.
Let the merchants argue the question
with their country customers.
Improved accessibility tells upon
every farm and adds to Its value. Time
and money, which are usually equiva
lent, are savdd to the farmer, and to
all whose business it is to communi
cate with him.
There la every reason to believe that
good roads would go far ia effecting a
desirable revolution by multiplying
inducements to the career of agricul
turists, xne vastly increased economy
and facility of haulage to shipping
points and the Increased pleasures of
country life, which would be the out
come of good roads, would remove two
of the most potent causes of the de
cadence of farming.
Almost every farmer that come to
our city has some complaint to make
regarding the condition of the roads
even in the immediate neighborhood,
yes, even within the city limits. These
conditions are most deplorable and tbe
Commercial Club should, unite with
the merchants and farmers and bring
about some reform pertaining to the
advisability of improving all roads
leading to the city.
The roads have been neglected for
some time past, and the season for
wheat hauling - will soon be at band,
and with poor roads the producers will
evidently look for some market that
will be more azcessable
EMERGENCY CORPS;
The Ladles Organised Officers Elected
.. Subscriptions Solicited,
A very enthusiastic meeting of
ladles was held Monday evening at the
Armory and an auxiliary to the Ore
gon Emergency Corps was organized.
The ladies were right in for the work,

order and the object stated, the follow
ing officers were elected: President,
Dr. Belle Rlnehart; vice-president,
Mrs. Lang; secretary, Miss Bertha
Glenn; treasurer, Mrs. G. C. Blakeley,.
It was then decided that a committee
be appointed to solicit subscriptions,
tbe proceeds to, be expended for neces
sary articles to- ba. sent to the brave
boys in blue. The following, ladles
were appointed and are soliciting to
day: Mrs. G. C. Blakeley, chairman;
Mesdames FUa, Seufert,'. 8tubllng,
Waud, Berger and Miss Bertha Glenn,
They are meeting very much success
and bave quite a- number who have
subscribed as honorary members: Ail
should lend a helping hand, for it is
but a trifle individually, while in the
aggregate it will purchase a great
many things that will add much to the
comfort and pleasure of our volunteers,
The ladles' willingness to help, and
their taking bold of this work goes to
show conclusively that our fair city
has many patriotic and noble hearted
women who should be encoutaged
Give them your support.

Cnt in the Bid.
Tbe oldest son of A. A. Jayne was
severly cut in the side this morning
about 11 o'clock by a young fellow
about 19 years of age named Bayard,
It seems as .' though Bayard who If
canvassing for pictures was up near
Mr, Jayne's residence and sat down
by the fenoe to watt for his partner,
who was coming from a different di
rection, Several small boys gathered
around him and he was playing with
them. Young Jayne came up from tbe
inside of the fence and tickled Bayard
on the neck, Bayard who was whlttl.
ing threw bis arm around and in some
manner struck the boy with the blade
of the knife in the side. Tbe wound
though painful is not considered
serious. A warrant was issued for
Bayard's arrest and he is held for ex
amination before the Justice of the
Peace C. E. Bayard.

The Pride of The Dalles
Went Down Below
the Locks,
All on Board Saved, and the
Boat Safely Anchored.
Splendid Work of ' the Crew in Sav
ing Lives of Passengers.
At 1:30 Tuesday afternoon the D. P.
& A. N. Co's. steamer, Regulator, was
sunk In the rapids about 200 yards be
low tbe lower entrance to the canal at
Cascade Locks.
Tbe boat was coming from Portland
with a heavy load of freight and a
large passeDfe'- list, and when coming
from the Washington to the Oregon
side, preparatory to entering the
locks, the boat was caught In a heavy
swell and forced against tbe rooks on
the Oregon side with such violence as
to knock a hole in her hull. The boat
filled with water rapidly, but Capt.
Allyn and the crew maintained good
control of their wits, and succeeded in
getting a line ashore and getting all
the passengers off in a remarkably
short time without the slightest acci
dent to anyone. A number of horses
on board were also saved.
The Regulator was anchored to the
shore, and is in no immediate danger of
sustaining serious injury.
The Regulator is one of the stanch
est boats in the Northwest, and has
ever been tbe pride of The Dalles, for
it has been throngh its agency that we
have been given terminal freight
ratesraod tbat The Dalles has main
tained its supremacy as thachief com'
mercial point in tbe Inland Empire.
Everybody here hopes tbat the boat
is not materially damaged, and it wil
soon be running on tbe river again.
ANTELOPE 11 ASHES.
Tbe Business Portion of
tha Towa En
tirely Destroyed.
Monday morning about 2 o'clock
fire was discovered in the bowling
alley in conjunction with the Antelope
hotel, and it was but a short time un
til the entire structure was in flames.
Tbe residents were aroused, but as
there was no fire protection, nothing
could be done except to carry goods to.
a place pf security, It was but a short
time until the large two-story building
used for stores underneath and Masooio
ball overhead, was in flames, and al
most immediately tbe large red barn,
owned by W. D. Jones, of this city,
was ii flames. Tbe fire then crossed
the street to Silvertooth's saloon, and
and in a short space of time Patter
son's notion store and W. Bolton &
Co's immense warehouse and store
were one mass of flames. By hard work
the Antelope Herald building was saved.
From Jones' barn the fire oontlnued
Its way east and consumed Kirchhein-
er's blacksmith shop, Dr. Pilkington's
drug store, the postoffice and notion
store conducted by Mrs. John Bennett
and the furniture store of Gllsan-&
Brown.
Then the large Oociden.ta.1 hotel
caught, and in a lew minutes Ignited a
small building adjoining. Hee tbe
fire spent itself, and at tbe time Chas.
Hilton passed through the place at 8
o'clock Monday morning, the town
was a mass of smoking ruins. These
are all tbe particulars mat coma oe
learned and no Information whatever
could be obtained as to the amount of
loss or the insurance carried by those
burned out.
This was an extremely bad time of
year for a fire to start in Antelope, for
at this season the merchants usually
stook up very heavily on account of
tbe oheap rates tbat goods are hauled
for, during wool haulln? season. No
accidents were reported and as far as
can be learned nothing was burned
except as stated above.

may be millions in tbe safe,

simply because the combination won't work.
A tick man is in very much the same fix
about getting; at the nourishment be needs
to keep him alive. There is plenty of good
food at hand, but his digestive organism is
out of order; the nutritive "combination"
of his system won't work. He can't possl.
bly get at the nourishment contained In the
food. He takes it into his stomach, but it
does him no good. It isn't made into good
blood. He is just as badly off as if the
food was locked np where he couldn't touch
it He gets no strength or health out of it
All these mal-nntritive conditions have a
perfect and scientific remedy in Dr. Pierce's
