F. Russell Drowns In Little Salmon Troy, April 25 Frank Russell, aged 24 years, eon of Edward Rus6ell was drowned in the LRU Salmon river, Sunday morning, In front of O. C. Boldlng'e residence, Vi mile-s north of Troy'. He was attempting to ford the river with a three year old colt. The river was very high and was running 10 miles an hour. The horse' lipped and fell over backward. The first time they came up the man ws etill clinging to the horse, but the animal :turned over again and the second time it arose it was riderless. The horse swam to shore. The accident was witnessed by the young man's father who etood on the bank and wasunable to ren der him any assistance. About ten years ago Mr. Kussell saw another son killed while, felling a tree. The falling tree struck an axo on young Russell's shoulder and drove the axe Into the base of his brain, killing him instantly. Searchers went up and down the river all day Sunday and this morn ing the search still goes on, but up to this, time the body has not been recovered, his hat not even having been found. It is feared the body may have lodged up the river. The young man lived with his father at Dry Gulch. Besides the fa'her one brother, Clyde, and one sister, Mrs. Morrison, survive. The funeral of Harlow A. Thomas was the largest ever held dn the North Country. Over 300 persons were present at Paradise Saturi. Rev. Martin conducted the services. About forty teams were in the pro cession that followed the remains to their last resting place In Paradise cemetery. Mr. Thomas passed away at H o'clock Thursday roornlrg. He was one of the pioneer settlers of Wal lowa county. The ferry in now in operation. County ClerK's Statement Ponnrt nf th Countv Clerk of Wallowa County.

' RAINIER At this point the best showing in the last fishing season was In smelt. During February and March 60,000 pounds of smelt were exported from this town. This was the best record yet attained here. During last May and June, the shad run, 10,000 pounds of shad were ex ported from here. Chicago Board of Trade men pro fessed surprise when they heard the reports that an Investigation into the operations of the Board of Trade is to be made by the Department of Jus tice. The contention of the dealers Is that the Board of Trade as an Insti tution in no way affects prices but simply affords a market; where supply and demand may have free play in fixing the true, just, natural price.

There was nothing in his manner to indicate that be expected to be wel comed with opeu anus or a blare of trumpets. He saw others, those who had been poor and bumble upon the earth, walk up confidently to the splendid entrance and gaiu ready admittance. Frequently be paused as If be had decided to turu back, but little by lit tle be drew nearer to the place where his fate was to be decided. At last be stood before tbe gate and peered through at the magnificent scene within. Then the saint who kept tbe key, perceiving him, asked: "Have you any credentials to pre sentr "No," replied the one who had been very rich. "The best I can hope for , is to ask that you will permit me to try to get a camel to pass through the eye of a needle. I don't suppose I can do it, but I will try. I have never be lieved in giving up without making an effort" . - "Your remarks lead me to believe you were a rich man." "I was a very rich man." ' "I suppose you were not always scrupulous in your dealings with other men?" "No." . "Your riches were not the result of hard work and honest dealing?" "No. I gained my millions by lay ing burdens upon others, by cunningly evading laws that were made for tbe purpose of protecting the weak and by engaging In enterprises that were of ten of a questionable nature," . "I suppose you gave many millions to charity and did other things that were Intended to divert public atten tion from your reprehensible prac tices?" .. "Yes. I can see now, however, that I might as well have saved , myself the trouble. Giving to charity for selfish ends instead of for the love of giving, it appears from certain things which I have seen and beard since my arrival here, does not rank as a vir tue." "Well, if there is nothing (n your record which ought to entitle you to admittance here, why do you linger?" "There is one thing that I have thought might be considered in my fa vor." . .,. "What Is ltr "I never went around after I had be come a multimillionaire trying to make people believe that I considered my wealth a burdeu and was longing to be poor again." ' "Walt. Don't go away.

We don't claim that these clothes are always of an exceptional "quality, but we do claim that young men affect certain features which older people don't.
