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.

Automobile Association is working
an arrangement by which active co- :
operation from each county is se- I
cured in the building of good roads '
and the furtherance of other work '
within the sphere of the club. '
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.
MARSHFIELD Judge John S.
Coke, In the Circuit Court imposed
upon four men charged with selling
liquor In Myrtle Point, a dry terri
tory, fines of $ 100 each and sentenced
each man to 30 days in the county

His One Great Chance.
One who had boen very rich slowly
approached the gates of penrl.
lie appeared to be in doubt.
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. I think we
may be able to fix it for you without
applying the needle's eye test" Chi

. "Why are you coustantly referring to
Bllgglns as a leading citizen?"
"i can't help having an admiration
for the man." replied Miss Cayenne.
"He belongs to our whist club and al
ways knows which card to play first."

"flTHERBVERyou happen to see a group of young -'
, fellows you are most certain to find them wearing
clothes of rare style and individuality. 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. In "College Chap Clothes"
we have been fortunate enough to find a quality which
is not by any means expensive, and features which are
strikingly young though not too young, for men who
wish to reiain their youthful appearance.
The Normandie, The Norfolk, the College Chap and
the College Chap, Jr. are four styles of young men's
garments. They ars classed under the name of "Col
lege Chap Clothes." , They area branch of "Modern
Clothes," made by Brandegee, Kincaid & Co., tailor
shops at Utica. . ' ' '
If you are particularly sensitive to style you had better
make it your business to call at our shop and inspect
these garments. You may rest assured of good treat
ment at the hands of skilled salesmen. ..
