Most persons think that the chief dif- ierenee between men's and women's clubs is that the one is intellectually in clined and the other itm't. Hut there are other distinctions. At what organize tion of men could the following incident have taken tilnee? nsks the New York Sun. It was at a (fathering of feminine clans the other afternoon, and some body, with that delightful irresponsi bilitycomtnoutosueh occasions, wanted to know the time. "You see, I forgot and left my watch at home," she added regretfully, if not officially. "Why, so did I leave mine," piped up the president, not to bo out' done in informality. "So did I, "So did I," chimed in the secretary and the treasurer, while the chairman of the executive committee announced grave ly : "Mine vvna all ready to put on, but 1 came off in such a hurry that I forgot it after all." All this while, however, the first vice president had been tugging away ather belt In a buKinetis like wnv, and she now produced a small timepiece, "La die," she began, In a virtuous tone, while all the rest gazed at her with the utmost respect "let me give you the time. You can always depend wpon " But here she stopped, and, after ataring at the timepiece for full two seconds, she began to shake it and rap it in a manner that might have alarmed any one unfamiliar with women and their ways with watches. The gathering before her, however, being of her own sex, took it all mont seriously. Suddenly the first vice presi dent put the timepiece to her ear. "Oh," shecried, while a sweet smile of satis faction irradiated her face, "there's nothing the matter, after all. I wouud it this morning, but forgot to set it, t&ttt'i air . ... JOKE ON ALGER. Dallied About mid Finally Was Lost at Be off Cuba- Havana, March 26. Seoretary Alger and bis parly arrived bere this afternoon on tbe United States transport Ingalls, after having lost their way at sea for several bonrs. It seems that the Iogalls was making good time yesterday and was likely to make Havana last nigbt it ebe kept on a straight coarse. General Alger suggested waiting awhile at Key West and leaving there in time to reach Havana at 9 this morning. Tbe Ingalls pnt into Key West and General Alger wired General Brooke to expect him about 9 o'olock today. Tbe Ingalls left Key West at llo'olook last nigbt and tbe whole party was np for an early breakfast this morning, after which all went to tbe deok to wait for El Morro to loom np. Nine o'olock, bnt there was not a sign of tbe castle. General Alger, getting a little impatient, sent to the pilothouse to inquire when Havana would be reached. Tbe reply was "In about an hour." An hour and a half pasted, with the Cuban ooast on their left and Havana was still unsighted. Toward noon the roofs of a oily oonld be made out and General Alger, oalling for a glass, took a close look. "Why, that is Matanzas," he said, and just then the Ingalls began to turn around. Tbe navigating officer was all out in bis oaloalations. He thought he was west of Havana, instead of east. Meanwhile Generals Brooke, Ludlow, Lee, Bates, Wilson and Hasbrouok witb their staffs had risen early, boarded a tug and bad been cruising outside the harbor waiting for tbe Ingalls. All tbe officers were in heavy blue oloth in honor of the seoretary of war, having laid aside their khaki and flannel. The generals steamed in and out until noon, then lunched at a cheap waterside res taurant and returned to their cruise, go ing outside for another look. About 8 o'clock tbey saw the smoke of a steamer going down the coast, but as it was in a direction opposite from that which tbey expeotea tne iogalls tbey baa no sus picion that it was the transport and therefore returned to LaMaobina wharf. But tbe Ingalls it was and in due time she entered tbe harbor but without the arranged reception. Shortly afterward, however, tbe generals went aboard and bad a brief oonferenoe with tbe seoretary wbo arranged to meet them again to morrow at tbe Hotel Trooba, Governor General Brooke's headquarters at El Venado. General Alger did not land, saying that be preferred to remain on board the transport. He expeots to stay here two days at least, and he may go to Pinar del Rio. Tbe trip to Cientnegos will be made overland, the transport going around the west end of tbe island so as to be able to take tbe secretary from Oieofuegor to Santiago. General Alger says bis trip is partly for rest and partly for purposes of in speotion. He desires to get information atnret hand with regard toOuban affairs and administration. THE PANAMA CANAL. Senator Frye Thinks We Should Steer Clear of That Itoute. Our regular Washington oorrespodent says that Senator Frye, of Maine, chair man'ot the senate committee on com merce, who knows tbe subject about as woll as any man in the oountry, does not smile upon tbe efforts of tbe French Panama Canal Company to interest sen ators and representatives in tbe Panama canal, the latest of wbiob is a congres sional free exoursion, at tbe oompany'a expense, of foor or five weeks' duration, for the purpose of inspection, etc Mr. Frye said: "I shall not go on tbe trip of inspeolion planned by the Panama Canal Company. I was urged to go, as were other members of Ibe senate and house. Tbe men wbo are to go down there on a pleasure jauol know about as muoh now oonoernlng the merits of one route over the other as they will when they reaoh home. I have been building tbe Nioaraugaa oanal for 25 years. Away back when 'Diok' Thompson was seoretary of the navy, we bad a commit tee to investigate the feasibility of routes. We sat for about six months, and examined a multitude of witnesses. inte witnesses established tbe utter impossibility of a sea level oanal over the Panama route, as De Lesseps had proposed. Then the Charges river was oonsidersd. Tha investigation in that line established that man oould not oon tro tbe waters, although God might. Die committee made no report, and about tbe only direol outcome of tbe in vestigation was the establishment of a United States ooaliug station by Ibenavv department, in compliance witb our per sooal requests. Wheu I was in Pans (Senator Frye was one of our peaoe oom missionern) they were after me perpetu ally regarding the Panama oanal; I mel friends of the project on every hand " It is very evident tbal Senator Frye thinks we should steer dear of the Pbi ami oanal soheme. Klparla to LewUtoB. The new steamboat Spokane, built by the O. R. A N. Co., to ply on Ihe Snake river between Riparia and Lewlston, is now complete, and in service. The steamer Lewieton is also In service, and the two steamers will alternate between Riparia and Lewislon, leaving Riparia daily exoept Sunday on arrival of train No. 1 from Portland and reaching Lew lston next dav at 1 p. ra. Returning, will leave Lewiaton daily exoept Satur day at J2 o'olock noon, arriving at Ri paria at 7 p. m., connecting with train No. 3 from Spokane. The Spokane bas been especially constructed for lbs run mentioned above, and is thoroughly titled with all modern appliances, electric I lights, eto and for speed and comfort will excel any oraft tint bas ever been built for the Suxke river.

Breeding inferior horses is more on- profitable than cultivating ,: worn-out lands. We may be a little backward about saying so, but Oregon, Washington and Idaho will come to the frout with a good looal raoing oirouit for fall meetings. Before claiming 'dates for onr State fair, tbe board nbonld consult witb tbe Washington State fair managers and ar range dates so tney will not conflict this year. Gbebalis is entered in tbe 2:01paoe at Charter Oak Park, July 4 to 8, against Rnbenstion, Frank Agan, Klulawab, Priooe Alert, Planet, Frank Bogueb and Pearl Onward. Tbe Oregon State fair will start off this year without being handicapped, and it tbe management is fair, and equal to all, there need never be any unneces sary load to oarry . Oregon, Washington and Idaho will eaob hold a big state fair this fall, and it would be well to hold tbem on differ ent dates, so that horsemen and exhib itors can attend eaoh fair. Pendleton should have a fair ground and raoe traok, it is right in line between Walla Walla and La Grande. Besides, they oonld easily get the appropriation for the district fair this year. Fair managers should bring them that a to tbe , better selves to believe and reoognlze fair is an institution belonging people, and that higher aims. motives than a stipulated dividend of blank cents per aonnm should be tbe inoentive with every legitimate fair as sociation depending upon the pnblio for support. Tbe proposition to establish fair grounds and make a bid to secure tbe looation of tbe Southern Oregon distriot fair is being discussed in Ashland. A meeting of business men was held Wed nesday eveniog, and tbe feasibility of the matter disoussed in an informal way, with tbe result that a committee con sisting of J. E. Felton, T. E Hills, W. E Conner, Joseph Dame and J. R. Norris were appointed to report as to suitable grounds, together with an estimate of the probable oost of the same and tbe cost of tbe necessary buildings and raoe tiaok. HOW TO WASH YOUR FACE. Here's a Way That Will Insure a Girl a Good Complexion. Telling girl's "How to b9 pretty though plain," Mrs. Humphry, in tbe April Ladies Home Journal, guarantees any girl a good complexion who will wash her faoe every nigbt and morning, and twice a day besides, according to ber directions: "Tbe water must cot b- quite oold in winter, and soap nard but onoe a day. Tbe fingers are better than any sponge or glove or flannel, and they should be used as tbe the masseuse usee hers, pressing them firmly but gently into ine skio, ana passing tuem two or three times over every inch of tbe face More particular pains should be devoted to the oornors, where dust is always liable to lodge, around tbe eyes, nose and month, If a washcloth is used it should be of the softest and finest, and plenty of water should be applied after tbe soap so as to wash it all away. Tbe drying prooess should be equally thorough and effuotual, a hurried rub openin, tbe way to all sorts of rough nesses and ohappings. Not one girl in twenty knows bow to wash ber faoe, and that is the reason wby massage flour ishes. It thoroughly cleanses." Think of liv, nig a year or two alter ona is dead : dead all practical in tents and purposes, aeaa, with the auto graph of death in scribed on brow and cheek and Hp. Thousands of women live for a year or two after all help fulness and happiness have gone out of their lives. When a woman becomes hope lessly helpless ana unhappy is practic ally dead. The young woman to whom the future U a dreary waste, the young wife who is a helpless, nervous invalid, the mother whose babes are a burden in stead of a blessing, all these, unless they take the right measures to recover their health, are better dead than living. In the majority of cases these ghosts of women owe their condition to weakness and dis ease of the distinctly feminine organism. Frequently they have been deceived by the incorrect diagnosis of some obscure physiciun and do not understand the true nature of their trouble. It only costs a two-cent postage stamp for a woman to write and describe her condition to Dr. R. V. Pierce, au eminent and skilful special ist, for thirty years chief consulting phys ician to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N. V. He will answer letters from ailing; women without charge. He is the discoverer of Dr.- Pierce's fa vorite Prescription, the greatest of all known medicines for women. It acts directly on the delicate organs concerned in maternity and makes them strong, healthy and vigorous. It banishes the in dispositions of the anxious period and makes baby's coming easy and almost painless. It cures all disorders and dis placements and checks exhausting drains. " Previous to motherhood my wile was very sick." writes Dennis H. Coooell'v, Ksq., of Clear Water. Wright Co., Minn.
