J'ruycr IScstorcs Sight.
Eugene, Or., Aug. 10, Dr. L. W.
Brown, of thi city, relates a most pe
culiar ciicumstance. He was called to
Cottage Grove Friday night to aesiBt in
an operation to remove an eye from Mrs.
Hunnicutt, who has been blind in one
eye tor 05 years, and it has been deemed
advisable to remove the useless
member. The operation was to be per
formed this morning find the woman
was placed on the operating table and
the attetdinw eungeons got their instru-
F
merits in readiness lor the operation
when the woman shouted that the Lord
had restored htr sight.
Those in attendance were greatly sur
prised at this outburst, but the good
eye was closed and she was shown
several articles and could see them
plain!' with the eye that had been blind
for years and called the articles by
name. There were half a dozen
witnesses of the occurrence and all
were dutnfounded.
The woman hud spent several hours
in prayer previous to the time for the
operation and just before goinjj; on the
operating table offered a final prayer to
iod to restore her sight. She naturally
feels that her prayer was answered.

It it il road ICiig-iucers Suppose! to lie
l.itiplo) cd INordicni l'acilic.
A cam) of rsilroad engineers, estab
lished about live miles above The
Dalles, is giving considerable uneasiness
to railroad men interested in that sec
tion of the state. Roth the O. 11. & N.
and the Columbia Southern, having in
terests in the country which the party
is working, are watching the progress of
the survevs closely.
Though nothing has been done thus
far to indicate the road interested in the
surveys railroad men believe that the
Northern Pacifies is behind the work.
That neither the O. R. & N. nor any of
its allied corporations has undertaken
the work seems certain.' The Northern
Pacific is the only other line near
enough to this territory to be seriously
considered in the speculations.
The interest of the Northern Pacific in
such a survey is explained by railroad
men to be the "same as that which in
duced the Mellen system to survey a
line down the north hank of the Colum
bia River. At present the Northern Pa
cific line is but 40 miles from the point
where the surveyors are working, and a
line down the Columbia would bring
them much closer.
' Just above The Dalles there is an
ideal place for the construction of a
railroad bridge. Three 90-foot spans
would allow the Mellen line to put in a
substantial bridge. Natural abutments
are to be had on each side of the river
and the cost of building a bridge would
be light.
Rasing their predictions on the as
sumption that the Norfhern Pacific is
soon to build down the north bank of
the Columbia railroad men insist that it
is most likely this road has sent the
party of surveyors into the field which
is working above The Dalles. It is fig
ured that the road is looking over the
Eastern Oregon country, having in view
the possibility of lentering that district
when its other sytem is complted.
Space at St. I. on is fair.
(ieneral Superintendent Wehrungand
his assistants, in charge of the work of
gathering the exhibit for the St. Louis
Pair, decided yesterday to apply for
space as follows :
Fish and game, (iO-10 square feet;
forestry, 7500 square feet; agriculture,
12000 square feet ; education, 4000 square
feet ; horticulture, 5000 square feet.
This space may not be used, but it
was the opinion of Mr. Wehrung and
his assistants' that an application should
be made immediately in order that the
room niiiy by held for Oregon. When
Wehrung visits St. Louis next October,
lie will be able to make definite arrage
ments for space. It may be by that
time the commissioners will find it im
possible to get along with any less than
will be asked. In any event, no more
is expected to prove necessary.
The superintendent and his assistants
expect to be able to gather a large part
of the Oregon exhibit from the county
and district fairs to bo held this year.
It has been already decided that the bet
exhibits made at these displays should
be purchased and a fund has been set
aside for the purpose.
Mr. Wehrung, President Myers and
the committees interested in the fair will
make the se'ections while the fairs are
in progress during the coming
month, and in the meantime the work
of the assistant superintendents will not
be very heavy. They are expected to
supplement the displays gathered from
all parts of the state by the commission's
p'nn, and will not do much work in the
field until it is known what can le obtain
ed from local fairs.
The conference of the Fuperintendent
with his assistants j'esterday resulted in
a thorough understanding of the scope
of work to be undertaken, and a decision
that it would not be necessary at present
to inaugurate active field work.
The State Commission has decided to
offer a tree 430 feet in length to the
officials of the Louisiana Purchase Ex
position for use as a flag-pole, and a

May not be all that is meant by dyspepsia
now, but it will be if neglected.
The uneasiness after eatiri;-', fiSn of nerv
ous headache, sourness of the stomach, and
disagreeable belchiwr may not be very bad
now, but they will be if the bti.rnach is
suffered to grow weaker.

letter conveying the tender has been
sent to President Francis. The com
mission believes that this tree, standing
on the lair grounds would serve as an
unusually good advertisement of Ore
gon's lumber resources. It will probably
be impossible to ship the tree to St.
Louis without cutting it in two, but it
could easily be spliced again.
Secretary Giltner, acting upon the ad
vice of the committee on manufacturing
is writing to all the manufacturers in
the state asking them to co-operate with
the commission in making a splecded
display. The owners of plants are be
ing asked whether they will co-operate
the amount of space they will require to
make a showing of their products, and
the character of exhibits to be made.
The railroads have offered to transport
all exhibits gathered in different parts
of the state to Portland free of charge.
In addition, it is being impressed upon
the manufacturers that the state com
mission will ship all displays to and
from St. Louis, relieving the exhibitors
of all costs in handling them.
Photographers, especially those mak
ing a specialty of scenery, are being
urged to co-operate with the commission.
The manufacturing committee hopes to
be able to make a good display of
pictures that will show interesting bits
of Oregon iife. Those camera clubs
which have been encouraging this class
of photography will also be asked to
contribute to the display.
The department of China painting is
to be taken up. At the Chicago fair
Oregon exhibits were unusually success
ful in China painting competitions, and
it is believed by the commission thst
Oregon can make a good display at St.
Louis. Oregonian.
