R. Eberhard received a visit from
the burglars and his guest, Ben
Knapper of Joseph, was robbed of
$30. In keeping with the usual line
of LaGrande citizens during the
robber scare, Mr. Eberhard had" lock
ed the house on N. avenue before
retiring, neglecting, however, to fast
en a small window high up on the
wall of the bath room. He had no
i.ispioiou that entrance could be gal
ed there, but nevertheless at some
hour of the night entrance had been
effected through the Binall window
near an occupied bed.
The robbers fomd their way to
Knapper and daringly enough seized
a pair of trousers which Mr. Knap
per had worn during the evening.
The contents evl.lently were not re
moved at that time, for this morning
when Mr. Knapper went to dress,
he was amazed to find a joodly por
tion of his wearing apparel missing.
A search revealed the trousers
hanging on a clothes line in a
neighboring yard. Thirty dollars in
cash had been removed with a
purse, but a knife and a bunch of
keys had been unmolested. Other
wise nothing had been taUea from
the house.

foundec of osteopathy. There he met
Dr. Still, and there he studied his
methods. This is a part of the ver
dict that he reached:
"Osteopathy is nominally the sci
ence of the bones. Diseases come
from maladjustment, a pressure on
nerve substance bv bone substance.
"Through manipulation, a right ad
justment Is brought about, nerves act
normally, circulation Is equalized, the
secretions flow, elimination follows
the man is well. The 'manlps1 have
a still further use. They Impress the
patient with the fact that Bomthing
Is being done for him. It is the
outside manipulation versus the Inter
nal chemical explosion.
"Dr. Still was almost alone when,
thirty years ago, he lifted a stern,
wamitig voice againts drugs, calling
attention to the fact that when the
drug had a direct or primary effect
that was known, it also had a sec
ondary effect that could not be fore
told. "Very naturally the medics said
things about Dr. Still, and, not being
ible to meet hU arguments, con
.ented themselves by calling him bad
lames. The gentle aspersions of the
.ewhiskered ones was to say that
ae wasj crazy.
"Now Dr. Still has won. He Is
rich; he Is honored; and he is be
loved. He is thought well of in his
own town. A man who earns all the
money he wants, who works with his
hands, who sleeps well and eats well,

quickened and the forces united in
aggressive work, will the people out
Jlde the church become interested.
A good revival always quickens the
public conscience, uplifts the moral
atmosphere, arrests men in their
wrong thinking and gives them a
vision of God who stands ready
to forgive their sins and who longs
to dwell in them and walk with
them.
This campaign is being conducted
along practical and reasonable lines
Dr. Pratt appeals to the conscience
nd good sense of every thinking
person. No clap-trap methods are
ured and no cunning devices are em
ployed to entrap people.
The attendance has been good and
even through the week there have
been evenings when the rink has
been well filled. The interest In
daily deepening. No church in town
could begin to accommodate the peo
ple. In fact the auditorium we now
have wll be taxed to its limit. But
come and bring your friends; a bless
ing is in store for you. If you would
get the mo3t, come regularly. Do
not miss.

NEWSPAPERS HELPED
MAKE A-Y.P. SUCCESS
Continued from ra-e three
from concessions, revenues and oili
er rentals. After all debts have been
paid, at least a hundred thousand dol
lars will be left to ttPiortion uniotit
the, nrleinal sto'k holders. In review
ing the success of the exposition, the
Post Intelligencer says: "As a sinu-ie
matter of Justice, it ought to be said
that the news;a;ers of the state
helped to make it a success; indeed,
no other single influence has con
tributed more to the- success of tne
exposition than the Influence of the
intelligent and progressive newspaper
makers of tliej state.''
nnr of the most necessary Inter
nal improvements in the Northwest
is the opening of the upper C oium
bia river. The state is now engaged
m spending 150,000 in the vicinity
jf Kettle Falls. The North Central
Washington Development League has
called a niesting in Weiiatchee for
the purpose of memorializing Con
gress to assist in the work. I.y
making the entire stream navigable
an important trade highway from the
.nterior to tide water, will be opened,
on which tra'fie can be carried
cheaply.
The summer months have seen a
large increase in Washington bank
deposits. The rHort of Hank Ex-
imlna. Mnhiinilrn sllOWS that Oil
September 1, Washington banks held
185,804,629.71 as against $7!),.S,

$6,0.80,467.75 in ten weeks time. Noai
lv ovorv county Im the state shows
increases in deposits, loans and, cash
on hand.
The people of Odessa are sure that
patience is a valuable virtue. When
the railway commission investigated
local conditions, they did not kick for
i new depot, but decided to leave
it to the Great Northern Railway,
on the grounds that it would know
best when conditions justified a
new station. President L. W. Hill
heard of this conservatism and im
mediately ordered the erection of
a $20,000 building as a reward for
their patience.

varied resources. Everything is here. Fertile
land for grain, hay, sugar beets, vegetables,
fruit; abundance of water, splendid climate,
greatest body of timber in Eastern Oregon, un
rivaled winter and summer range, great stock
country and the mountains full of minerals.
Wallowa County has
Just Begun to Grow
Enterprise is the county seat, largest town
