sThe memorial services conducted by
tho Elks lodge last Sunday called to
mind rather an unusual circumstance
in connection with lodge affairs. It is
this: The lodge has been In existance
more than four years and has a mem
bership of 13C, and (has only lost two
members byideath, one of whom died
in a fire. Few organizations, with so
large a membership, have suffered so
light a death loss.
A few evenings since J. A. Mc-
Arthur, the electrician, made un X

that the small bone had not properly
knitted, the ends of the bone lapping
over about an men. J. tie iimD was
broken about six months ago, and
since then Mr, Blakeney has not been
able to bear his wt ight ou it. He will
go to Portland the last of the week to
have an operation performed. It may
prove necessary to again create tne
bones in order to get them in proper
position.
Some Stamp.
Claude M. Johnson, director of the
bureau of engraving and printing, in
his annual report shows that during
tho year there were 72,979,593 sheets
of stamps and government securities
printed and delivered at a cost of
$1,570,598. This sum, however, in
cludes $12,590 increase of stock, 330.000
paid for machinery and 96,413 paid to
outside employees. Deducting, these
extra amounts the cost per thousand
sheet9 tnis year was 47 centa less than
last, making a total saving of $43,700.
The average number of pbeets
handled by each employe was 56,290
which Is the best record ever made by
the bureau in supplying adhesive
stamps to the Internal revenue bureau.
In seventeen days after the passage of
the act, the bureau had delivered 185,
390,926 stamps. This work was done
in addition to and in connection with
the new bond issue, and in addition
to supplying largely increased de
mands for United States notes, add sil
ver certificates and treasury notes, as
well as the issue of a new series of
postage stamps for the Omaha Trans-
Mississippi exposition.
Hope for the Volunteers.
Few of the men : who enlisted as.
volunteers duriug the war with Spain
went into the army with the expects
tibn that' they would serve longer than
tbeir services were required during
actual hostilities, hence those who are
retained to do garrison duty are rest
less, and look forward with , pleasure
to the time when they will be mustered
out of the service. . To such tbero is
one clause in the president's message
to congress that will be good news.
It is a9 follows:
"It is my purposo to muster out the
entire volunteer army as soon as con
gress shall provide for the increase of
the reguler establishment. - This will
be only an act of justice, 'and' will be
much appreciated by the brave men
who left tbeir homes and employments
to help the country in its emergency,
This will be to them as a ray of hope
and they will praise the day when the
regular army shall be detailed to the
duty they now perform.

-TUB ARREST ' OF FOKKSTER. -
Re Gave - Himself Anay to n Private
Detective on the Road.
Sheriff Kelly and E. J. Glisau ar
rived home Saturday evening from
Winnemuca, Nevada. havlng in charge
Frank Fore3ter, who killed Phil Bro
gan at Antelope on the evening of
November 4th.
The story of Forester's flight and
capture is a ropitition of many simi
lar castes, and verification of the fay
ingthat ''murder; will-.ant."
According to hi owu statement,
after he kiilatl . Iirogan ho walked to
Mitchell, there secured a horse and
started for Arizona, going through
Grant -and Harney counties. At the
Narrows, Harney county, ho saw the
notices sent out by Sheriff Kelly bffier
Ing a reward for his arrest, and on
leaving that place fell in with a fel
low traveler, who proved to bo a pri
vate detective, PJ. O. Barker, who had
first heard of tho murder at Prineville,
and started out in pursuit of the fugi
tive. Barker and Forester rode together
for several days and became confiden
tial. .Forester told Barker he had
killed Brogan, and that theie was a
reward of $1,000 for his arrest. Some
60 mili'9 from Winnemucca a con
stable, by the name of Felis, was met
aod to him Barker revealed Forester's
identity. Felis hastened to Winne
mucca and notified Deputy Sheriff
Rose, while Barker piloted Forester
into town. Forester arrived in
Winnmucca on the evening of Nov. 21,
and he was arrested by Deputy Rose
on the morning of the 22d.
Forester on being arrested made no
resistance and; acknowledged he was
the man wasted, though he claimed
he acted in self defense in killing Bro
gan. Sheriff Kelly arrived at Winne
mucca on Tuesday of last week; and
after having settled with the officers
there for making the arrest, and pay
ing them the reward started back with
his man on Wednesday, arriving here
on Saturday evening's train.
Forester was indicted by the lan
grand juro for murdet in the' first de
gree, and in consequence will be con
fined in the county jail until the con
vening of the February term of cir
cuit court, when he will be placed on
trial.

The physicians of Portland, aided by
those of the state, will make an effort
in tne next legislature to suppress by
statute the numerous medical insti
tutes doing business throughout the
state. The public will pray devotedly
for their success. These institutions
are fakes, as a rule, and they are
conducted by fakirs. Generally they
are robbers' dens run by lief of law
because no provision has yet been
mado by legislation to meet tbeir eva
sion of existing statutes. There is
not a good physician among them; and
the only trustworthy medical service
a patient obtains is from good physi
cians whom some of these institutes
are occasionally able to employ. This
is . not often,: however. Reputable
physicians will not be employed by
such fake institutions. The -next leg
islature can do nothing better than to
pass a law that will finally enable the
authorities to su press them. Wel
come.' A Birthday Party.
