Newport News, Feb. 1.— With representatives of the Argentine Republic and British governments, among others on board the subma rine boat Simon Lake “ X ” today was submerged 38 feet and returned to the surface in 30 seconds. This cuts in half the record held by the French type of submarine, which is one minute. Another record was broken in til ling the ballast tanks for the sub mergence. The tanks were filled in 9$ minutes, the best previous time being 15 minutes, made by a French submarine. The Simon Lake “ X ” made a speed of 9^ knots an hour with decks awash, and, submerged, traveled 8 J knots.

A Letter From * Uncle Sam." Red Bluffs, California, February 2, 1905. E ditor H erald : 1 am reminded by the semi-weekly visits of your excellent paper that we are not for gotten by the H erald force. Long may they wave! My wife and I left Eugene on Jan. 9th, and arrived here the following day, where we aro having a very nice visit with Mr. and Mrs. G. W. Cannon, a brother of my wife, and who had not met for almost forty years. It is no secret that these two grand mas were giddy girls together. Oh my! Just many years ago. “ Are they talking of old times?" Now, Mr. Editor, I am astonished to think you should ask such a question. To tell the truth (confidentially) the days and nights are all too short when talking of fifty years or more ago. Our son*dohn, and his family, well-known in Coos county, left for Jamaica to enter the missionary field, the same time we departed for California, and after many delays caused by the cold weather and snow storms, they reached Balti more in time to take the steamer on the 18th. As a faithful chronicler of events, I must relate an adven ture that for a time was quite excit ing to the whole family. About 9 a. m., Mrs. Handsaker and dear little Lois, their babe, was placed on the vessel, with the understand ing that they would not sail until 3 p.m . John had some business on hand, and imagine, if you can, what his feelings were when at 12 o'clock be returned and found that the ship had been gone forty minutes. The agents saw at once that they were to blame and proposed to give him free passage on another vessel from Philadelphia, but of course he would not for a moment listen to this proposition. But to make a long story brief will say that with the aid of the 'phone system of com munication, some of the pilots down the bnv was notified, and the cap tain of the steamer w is ordered to return, which he did, meeting the excited minister on board a tug on which he had been placed, many miles from the port. “ If our fam ily was small it was a happy one,” we are assured. They expected to make the voy age to Kingston in about five days, but up to this time, probably on ac count of delayed mails, wc have not received news of their arrival. Since our arrival here the weather has been quite wet, “ the most we ever saw” say the pioneers. After making our home in OregoD for more than 50 years, we shall re- turn in a few day, as we believe it the best state in the union. Please address the H erald to Eugene. With Lind regards, “ U ncle S am ” H andsaker . R iverton P ick -u p s. Important Announcement. A few counterfeiters have lately | Dr. D. L.

Sperry Flour C o.: Dear Sira: My parents have used Sperry’s Flour for several years and they like it best because it makes tbe lightest, sweetest and whitest light bread. It does not require so much kneading and makes more bread to a sack than any other brand. Makes tbe best biscuits, cakes and other pastry, because it rises quickly and is cheaper, for you can always depend on every sack being good. Therefore we thick Sperry’s Flour is the very best flour made, for with other brands of flour you will sometimes get a poor sack. notiok fo r p u b l ic a t io n .
