Kecollect the Chriinas tree at Congregational church to night good time nia be expected. tbe A Griffin .t Ileetl say it is all a mistake about thtec being hard times, for trade was never so brisk with them befoie. Ocar Brown charged with assault and battery -was tried jesterdav be fore Justice Cleveland found guilty :iuu lined S2. and cote The cae 1 will probably be appealed. A dispensation was grauted jester day by Grand Chaucellor Cleveland for tlie institution or a lodge of K. of 1 at Cornelius, Oregon. This makes five new lodges of the order since last Octoler. Tlie contractors will finish the chimney and fire place to-day in the snow houe at the M. E. church. Santa Claus comes down the chimney; so'leavejonr presents at his oilice at the church. Only Councilman Bergman and Welch showed un at last night's meet ing of tbe council and in consequence a number or important measures did not come up. An adjournment was taken until Friday. John Fox, E. C. Hughes and C. J. Curtis are a committee of arrange ments for the stag social to be given by Qninlin Lodge No. ISO, B. P.O. R, at tboir ba'J, over Camaban's store, to morrow evening. A grand time is promised. Win. Bell, aged 42 years and a prominent resident of Crooked Creek, Wah., died suddenly at bis home day before yesterday, from natural causes. He left a widow and four children, tbe youngest of -which is -1 years old and the eldest l."i years. A. R. Kanaga has returned from a tour or twelve dajs during which he visited Pendleton and other places in Eastern Oregon where ho found very cold weather. Returning he came by way of Tacoma and Seattle, having made a long trip and enjojed a pleas ant time. The ample sidewalk in front of Griffin & Reed's was thronged all day yesterday with the numerous buyers of holiday goods from their extensive and varied stock. Their large force of clerks was kept busy :.ll day sup plying tbe crowd of men, women and children, whose happy face1? lespolce their satisfaction. The Presbyterian Sibbith school will have a Christmas tree at the church on Wednesday evening at fi o'clock. Besides the usual distribu tion of gifts there will be singing and recitations by the various classes. The school will also offer a Christmas gift to the "Seamen's Friend Society' in contributing enough to buy a "ship library," iu which offering, visitors will have the privilege of taking part A dispatch was received in this city yesterday announcing that the en gineer Mr. McNaught. who represents the British syndicate that has in view tbe purchase of the bonds of the South Coast railroad, had loft Port land for this city. Mr. McNaught is accompanied by Wm. Reid, G. D. Gumming.? and Engineer Habersham, j He will be escorted over the survey 1 as made, and will probably reach this j pit. nbqut Saturday or Sunday next A large number of thefts by sneak thieves have been reported in this city of lato. On Monday evening, while W. T. Beveridge, the civil engineer, was absent at an entertainment, his residence on West Eighth .street was attacked by a burglar or burglars. One of the rear windows of the house bad been raised and a bold attempt to cater the houso made. The opportune arrival of Mr.lBeveridge frustrated the burglar's plans. Mrs. Beycridge got a glimpse of the man, and describes him as of medium heavy build and sandy complexion. It is no doubt the same chap that has made a number of at tempts on several private residences ia the central portion of the city. The article in jesterdaj's Astoeiax exposing the dishonest methods of the Columbian Publishing Company in mating excessive charges for city panting, etc., and disregarding their contract, was the subject of much comment, and the unprincipled action of the company was generally de nounced. A report was circulated during the day that the printing con tract was incorrectly published in TH3 Astokiax, and that there was a clause in the real contract that speci fied that four lines of minion type con stituted a square. The contract be tween the Columbian Publishing Com pany and the city was correctly printed in The Astokiax, word for word. City printing has been hereto fore estimated by the square, measur ing an inch, and if any one expects to substitute some other square in their calculations, they should see that their contract specifies that it is to be a half of an inch, or a quarter of an inch, or a sixteenth of an inch, as the case maybe.

THE IKLT BESTAURAHT-JEFF'S PUBLIC MEN 0! THE DAY ! Sonic of Their Peenlimties Wien Iiitemewel ly Reporters. OREGON'S EEPKESENi ATIVE MEN The Trials and Tronlks of a HewEpaper Han While Trying to Interview Some of the Big Men. Good, live interviews, well written, make the best kind of newspaper read- I i"pand " tbf m ca"s into play a" tbe genius and talent of tbe intcr- 'viewer, jet not one person in ten, in fact not one ia a iiUmircd, outside of tbe newspaper office, lias any idea of how they are obtained or of how the interviewed conducts himself while being interviewed. Typo is cold and expressionless. It is a chronicler, not a painter. It has two colors, black and white, aud they are ineffaceable. Wh.it men say is indelibly set forth, but it is left to the wits to imagine how they act when talking. If a man is in the habit of being interviewed, he will receive the interviewer with the name calmness and dignity that he receives a friend at his home, but if it is his first interview he is like the boy making bis first declamation at school. It is for the purpose of telling you how prominent men act when being interviewed that I write this letter. The railroad men, as a rule, are hard to deal with. They will talk when they have to, but generally speaking, it takes a pump to get am thing out of them. Henry Yillard is one of the most cautious of railroad men. He insists that all questions shall be put so that he clearly understands them, aud then he must read the. written answer to be sure that everything is right. Since he became one of the kings of Wall street he is more cau tious than ever, if not a little arrogant. The last time he was here, in June, 1889, he made a public speech, de claring that the O. R. & N. Co. be longed to the party he represented and he had come to take formal charge. When the election took place the following Monday, he found that he had not guessed it right, and was mad as a wet hen when a reporter asked him why the tide turned against him. "I don't know," he said curtly, walking off. President Oakea, of the Northern Pacific, is always polite, and if he can give j ou the information wanted he does it, and if not, he says suavely: "Really, my dear fellow, there is noth ing definite about that yet; but when it develops you shall have it first" OXE OF JEI IHLIi's THICKS. President Hill of the Great North ern, does not like to talk and tries to evade the reporter. If ho is cornered he says: ''Now, you must excuse me, for I am very busy. I lurre business with the editor of your paper, and will be at the office in half an hour. I will meet you there and tell you what you want' It is ten to one he will never show up. I spent three hours looking for Syd ney Dillon oncer and when I found him he looked surprised and said: "I beg your pardon, sir; I am not Mr. Dillon." I soon found that I had the right man, and tackled him again, whereupon ho laughed heartily, re marking: "I thought I would play a joke upon 5 ou and tell you I was not Mr. Dillon. To make up for it I will answer any pertinent questions you may ask." Aud ho did. There is an air of haughtiness about ex-president Charles Francis Adams, of the Union Pacific. It seems as if he was trying to impress his greatness upon the interviewer. If he doe3 not want to talk he will say: "When that matter is ready for the news papers it will bo made public iu tbe proper way." Stanford is pleasant; but he does not tell much. Huntington's silence is alwa-vs golden. There is not much use in trying to pump him about any thing he wants to keep quiet. Charles Crocker was always affable, but like all the Southern Pacific men, he never let the right hand know what the left did. Holcomb, of the Union Pacific, 13 like a clam, une must nave a "dead cinch" upon him to get him to talk. Ho alwas make3 the inter viewer feel at home, except so far as riving him news is concerned. "I don't know a thing" is his invariable answer. "But if you want transpor tation at any time just come and see me. Now skip." HOW nUNT IS INTERVIEWED. George W. Hunt diotates his own questions and answers. "Now ask me what I am going to do?" ho says, "and 1 will answer 'I shall not tell.' " "Now tell mo that tho public wants to know, Mr. Hunt, and I will answer: 'the public must not know.'" Elijah Smith, thoO.R. &N. Co.'s old president, does not like to be in terviewed. Robert Garrett, the ex-president of the Baltimore & Ohio, was under treatment for insanity tho only time I ever interviewed him, and his physi cians would not let b'm talk much. However, he said he always liked to see newspaper men and insisted upon givinp: evidences of his sanity. Stewart Webb, vice-president of the New York Central, who, married into the Yanderbilt family, readily an swered all questions about the dazzl ing $123,000 excursion he gave about two years ago, but he put tho brakes on when asked about the New York Cen tral's big influence in the New York legislature. Manager McNei of tho Pacific divi sion of tho Union Pacific gives the straight story to the interviewer. Ex- Manager Smith is rather sparing in what he says. JMelson Bennett is very cautious and gets angry if leading questions are asked. GOVEBNOB PEN-JJOTEB'S SUAVHr. Affability is one of the requisites of a good politician. Governor Pen noyer, of Oregon, is an old news paper man, and knows a good item. He is one of the best men for the inter viewer that ever lived. No matter who ho is talking with, the president of the United States not excepted, if a reporter enters the office he immedi ately invites him in and introduces him to his friend. The governor is very mischievous and lets many cats out of the bag. Senator Dolph, of Oregon, and Sen ator Squire of "Washington, are dig nified and cordial. The former insists upon reading the manuscript of an interview with him before it is handed in. Representative Hermann, of Ore gon, and Wilson, of Washington, are ready to talk at any limS 'and upon any subjeet. The same may be said of Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, and Senator Alien of Washington. Sen ator Mitchell and Representative Hermann are the great handshakers of the Pacific Coast. Tii3y evcrfail to answer a letter. K Mayor DeLashmutt, of Portland, j keeps constantly in trim for an inter view, a horse race, or a mining deal. He is very accommodating and writes articles for tho papers when tho boys are overworked. TOM HEED'S rEEDICTION". Speaker Reed, of Maine, gave me a good interview on the tariff when he a-ashere inl8S7. He told me then that the republican party's advocacy of protection would giveit tho presi dency and both houses of congress tho following year, and that ho would bo elected speaker. He was right on every proposition. Ex-United States Attorney General Geo. H. Williams invariably asks: "Are you a short-hand manr" He dictates what he has to say and asks that it be read afterward. He talks very deliberately and writes all h'is speeches. When Bob Ingersoll ee3 that he has to be interviewed, he says: "If you want me to talk, make a list of questions. I will answer none that are not in writing." Chairman "Lotan, of the republican central committee of Oregon, deals in glittering generalities. Chairman Goldsmith, of tho democratic com mittee, is more specific. Tom Fitch, Nevada's silver tongued orator, gives a good interview. If there was noth ing but silver in the world, Senator Stewart, of Nevada, would be without a rival among tho interviewed. Sena tor Allison, of Iowa, Senator Dawes, of Massachusetts, Senator Frye, of Maine, ex-Senator Warner Miller, or New York, D. P. Thompson, the re publican candidate for governor of Oregon last June, ex-Governor Moore, of Washington, warmly welcomes the interviewer when he comes. Sunset Cox was also friendly. When I asked Allison if he was candidate for the presidency, ho winked and said: "Every American boy has that ambi tion." Mr. Thompson is the fastest talker of tho group, and Governor Moore the most reserved. SOME Or THE ICEBE11GS. Senator Hale, of Maine, and Sena tor Hoar, of Massachusetts, are some what like an iceberg. Senator Tnrpie, of Indiana, is contrary at limes. He is something of a josuer. Henry Failing, the millionaire banker, of Portland, does not like to talk. He tells reporters that what they are iaquiring about is private business and of no interest to the pub lic; that it does not make any differ ence to the world whether a man eats salad or rump steak for dinner. Ex- Chairman Joseph Simon, of the re publican central committee of Ore gon, lias saia several times, mat ne would feel better it there were no re porters or newspapers. United States Judge Matthew r. Deady, of Oregon, 13 a friend of news paper men and likes to help them along. Senatorial Candidate Calkins, of Tacoma, and Judge Turner, of Spokane Falls, are cordial but cau tious. So is General John W. Spraguo of Tacoma. W. S. Ladd, Oregons wealthiest man, seldom knows anything to tell but treats the boys well. Acting Governor .Laughton, of Washington, keeps the latch string on the outside. So doe3 Senator N. H. Owings. The latter likes to cock his hat on one side of his head when he talks. Cardinal Gibbons is quiet and affable. HOW THE HUilOBLSTS ACT. Bill Nj-o tries to saj' funny things about the ubiquitv of the reporter when he is about to be interviewed. Tom Nast makes a good talk. Robert J. Burdetto is very accommodating. One Sunday I was assigned to cover Burdotto's sermon in an East Port land church and a baseball gaine. Both were set down for the samo hour. My choice was the baseball game and I asked Burdetto to report his own sermon. He complied and when I got the copy this note wai at tached to it: (Private to editor.) At this point R. J. B. having de livered two sermons to-day and having a third to deliver to-night, has to abandon the task of helping out tho lazy Oregonian reporter, who ran away from church to see a ball game and bnldozed the preacher into re porting his own sermon. Yours f raternalh , ROBT. J. BOBDETTE. Burdetto evidently thought that was n good joke. Hekby E. Reed. Stas: Social. Quinliu Lodge No. 180, B. P. O.

Mrs. Harriot McNamaraof 31J State Ptreet, Trinidad, Colorado, while tisitius in St Louis last summer, did not juffer with her usual Eick headaches and Indigestion. But upon her return to Trinidad her old trou bles came upon her. It lias not the St Louis climate that did so much for her.

At Hie ajje of three months a rash (which afterwards proved to be eczema or salt rheum) made jts appearance on my- face Physician after physician was called.

The disease continued unabated : j spread to my arms aud legs till I 'nas laid up uuurciy, kqu irom continually sitting on tbe floor on a pillow, ray limbs contracted fo that I lost all control of them and was utterly helpless. Sly mother would have to lift me out and into bed. I could get around the house on my hands and. feet, but I could not get my clothes on at all, and had to wear a sort, of dressing gown. My balrhal all nutted down or faden off, and my head, face and ears were one scab. The disease continued In this manner until I was seventeen years old, and ouo day In January, 1879. I read an ac count In ihe 'irtbune of your Cdticoba Eemediks. It described my case so exact ly that 1 thought, as a last resort, to give them a trial.
