A DAY ON THE PIKE
Mrs. H. E. Kozer Gives a Few of
Her Impressions of the St.
Louis Fair.
(Continued From Lst Week.)
All the states and territories of the
United States are fittingly represented,
some by imposing buildings, others
by structures peculiar to themselves.
For instance Oregon's building:
Although deceiving in appearance,
there is a hearty welcome for all and
much good cheer inside. Many
humorous remarks may be heard as
the visitor approaches it : "Why 1 Is
this Oregon? I thought they had
timber enough out there to build a
big house." "I wonder if they have
any prunes or apples in there," etc.
Washington's building is octagon in
shape and conical in form, five stories
high, and the eight huge timbers, two
feet square and 100 feet long, in it be
speak Washington's timber resources.
California is a reproduction of La
Ribida Mission at Santa Barbara, and
is a delightful retreat. The Lone Star
State has a palace in the form of a
five pointed star, surmounted by a
dome 32 feet high.
New Jersey is represented by old
Ford Tavern, Washington's head
quarters at Morristown ; Mississippi
as the home of Jefferson Davis; Ten
nessee has the "Hermitage," the old
home of Andrew Jackson. Pennsyl
vania, one of the most magnificent
buildings at the World's Fair, Is
always surrounded by visitors anxious
to see and touch the old Liberty Bell,
which stands in the rotunda, faith
fully guarded by its custodians, and
so on to the end of ihe chapter of
states.
All the state buildings have recep
tion rooms where one can rest in
comfortable rockiug-chairs, or recline
on couches. Desks, with pen, ink
and paper, are provided for all who
wish to take advantage of the
privilege, and the home papers are
usually to be found on file.
Many odd materials have been made
into artistic statues, eloquently pro
claiming the statos from whence they
came. Birmingham, Alabama, has a
statue of Vulcan, CO feet high. The
base is made of coal and coke, and
the statue is cast in iron. King Cotton
is Mississippi's offering, and is as tall
as Alabama's Vulcan. The Spirit of
Utah is manifested in an artistic
figure modeled from beeswax. Idaho
presents the figure of a miner cast
from copper. Louisiana presents two
curiosities in sculpture a figure of
Mephistopheles in sulphur, and Lot's
Wife carved from a block of rock salt.
California shows the figure of an
elephant built of almonds. Alaska
has a block of solid gold, representing
the amount the United Statos paid for
that territory, ($7,000,000).
Of all the foreign buildings,
Germany has the finest and most
complete exhibit sent from abroad.
The imperial German pavilion is com
posed of rooms copied after some of
the most famous palaces. The
Emperor has sent paintings and tap
estry from his own palaces for these
rooms, and in one of them are cases
containing his wedding presents.
Instead of one building, Japan has
chosen to have a large and beautiful
garden in which stand seven large
and pretentious buildings. The land
scaping is altogether Japanese, and a
bevy of Geisha girls, in their bright
embroideries, are amongst the most
picturesque peoples at the Fair. There
can bo no question that the most
significant exhibit at St. Louis is that
of Japan. The Japanese Commission
has 300 assistants caring for its ex
tensive exhibits. The handiwork of
this nation is marvelous, as we bo-
hold it in their exquisite carvings,
fine lacquer work, etc. Imagine a
sideboard worth $10,000, and other
furniture in proportion!
The Pike is the great street of
amusements, whero gaiety roigns
from mid-morn to mid Right. Lined
on both sides with buildings all
foreign to the American eye, the
scenes and sounds along this
thoroughfare are such as to set the
brain in a whirl. A ride on the
Intramural through this section has
not its equal in the world. Starting
from a point central among palaces
that are more ornamental than were
ever conjured by Aladdin's Lamp,
from the left conies the low hum of
wheels and shafts of machinery ; from
the right, weird notes of Oriental
music and the voices of tho strong
lunged, calling attention to the fan
tastic sights that are within walls.
Perhaps the most popular place is
the "Streets of Cairo," as it contains
the most rnd variegated exhibits of
Oriental life. The Fair visitors, or a
very large part of them, loaned them
selves to the management for the
edification of others by either attempt
ing to ride a donkey, or trying acro
batic performances on tho upper deck
of a camel. "From New York to the
North Pole" is still a mystery to all
who went aloard the ice-bound ship,
"Discoverer," and passed through
Arctic scenes. "Und'-rand Over tho
Sea" is another illusion, by which
one may make a trip by submarine
boat and return by airship. The
illusion of flying through space is so
real as to deceive all but tho initiated.
The submarine divers were also on ex
hibition. The original Monroe, 64
years old, who explored the Maine
after it was destroyed ; the woman who
went over Niagara Falls in a barrel,
and others.
What the Ferris Wheel wa3 to
Chicago, the Revolving Umbrella was
to St. Louis; wonderful in size, with
cars dangling from its immense ribs
as it revolved through the air. The
Moorish Palace, with its mechanical
and electrical effects, confused and
amused all. The Irish Village had
many characteristic features, also the
famous Blarney Stone. These are
only a few of the features of the Pike,
with its 6000 people and 1500 animals.
Now, in conclusion, there was much
more that we could intelligently see,
and no matter how tired we became,
walking up and down the many miles
of exhibits, we were paid many fold
for time and money spent, and came
away with knowledge of the world's
progress that we never knew before.
There is much satisfaction in the con
fidence that tho enterprise has ful
filled its mission, and soon all the in
structive displays will become memo
ries. No pen can exaggerate the
significance of the World's Fair of
1904. MRS. II. E. KOZER,
Ride Bicycles Now.
The sight of a heathen Chinee going
down tho street the other day with a
pole across his shoulder with a loaded
rice sack tied at each end, brought
back vividly the recollection of early
days in this community, when China
men were numerous and played an
important part in cleaning up the
grubby end of Yamhill. This celestial
was one of tho old timers a relic of
the chop-stick, pole-carrying heathen,
who has been succeeded in this
neighborhood by John Chong, the
Chinese gentleman, who lives out east
of town, who drives his own team and
rides a bicycle. Newberg Graphic.
Bought by Polk County Men.
William Tatom and C. W. Black, of
this city, have purchased the thorough
bred Percheron stallion, "Hercules,"
from John render, of California.
This splendid animal was brought
to Oregon last May, and was one of
the finest horses on exhibition at the
recent State Fair. He is 8 years old,
and weighs 1800 pounds. The price
paid for him was not made public, but
it is known that he cost his now owners
a neat sum of money. Polk count;-,
through her progressive stock breed
ers, is gaining a National reputation
as tho home of line horses, cattle,
sheep, goats and swine.
Seriously Injured by Fall.
B. F. Hall, owner of tho Hall ferry,
while making some repairs on his
hop house Tuesday, fell a distance of
eighteen feet and was rendered un
conscious. He was seriously bruised
about the head, and was otherwise
injured. He was taken to Salom for
treatment, and is in a precarious con
dition. Walter Lyon, editor of tho Indepen
dence Enterprise, was a Dallas visitor,
Tuesday.

CAN EPILEPSY BE CURED
Dr. Darrin Says Yes, and Gives Over
whelming Proof of His
Assertion.
Mrs. Abbie Wareham wa3 2G years a
sufferer from epileptic fits. The many
scars that she will carry through life
bear evidence of falls she sustained
as a result of the most horrible afflic
tionepilepsy. She consulted the best
medical talent, six different physicians
pronouncing the case incurable. She
was recommended at last to Dr. Darrin
but in her own mind, and in the minds
of her friends, with but little hope of
ever being cured. Appended are her
own words.
"Dr. Darrin treated me with elec
tricity and medicine and from the
first, I began to improve, and after a
thorough course of his treatment I am
happy to say I am cured. I have had
no indication of a return of my awful
affliction for the past 11 years. I give
this in the interest of those similarly
afflicted and most heartily recommend
Dr. Darrin 's system. I had epilepsy
20 years before going under Dr.
Darrin's care. November 14 he cured
me of a case of deaf noss in one minute.
I refer to Mr. B, F. Haley and Mrs.
Graham, corner of First and Main
streets, also Mrs. F. E. Dewey, 380
Davis street, Portland, all of whom
knew of my condition, then and now.
"Eefer any and all to me at Monta
villa, Oregon, by letter or in person."
Mas. Abbie Wareham.
Sciatic Rheumatism Cured.
To the Editor: I wish to state my
case in brief. Five years ago I was
afflicted with sciatic rheumatism and
was cured by Dr.Darrin with electricity
and medicine. I remain permanently
cured. Refer anyone to me at 545
Hood street, Portland. J. A. Bennett.
Judge Crockett Cured of Deafness.
For teu years prior to going under
Dr. Darrin's electrical treatment, Sep
tember 12, 1800, 1 had been gradually
growing deaf, with a constant ringing
in my ears. For tho past five years I
could not hear ordinary conversation.
With treatment by Dr. Darrin I can
hear nearly as well as ever In my life.
I can conscientiously recommend Dr.
Darrin's new cure for deafness, and
can be referrod to at Merlin, Oregon,
by letter or in person.
Garrett Crockett.
Dr. Darrin's Place of Business.
Dr. Darrin can be consulted free at
the Hotel Gail, Dallas, Oregon, until
December 23, from 10 o'clock to 5 daily,

The Rlddell Brothers.
Says the American Sheep Breeder
concerning two Angora goat breeders
of Monmouth, Polk county, Oregon,
who attended the sheep and goat show
at tho World's Fair, St. Louis : "Those
two young Oregon boys, the Biddell
Brothers, who, alone of all the Oregon
goatmen, had tho grit to come 2500
miles to see tho big goat show and
bank on the four goats they brought,
made a flue impression and earned by
their modest behavior the good
opinions of tho whole Angora crowd.
The goat show would not have been
complete without the two modest little
gentlemen from Monmouth, for whom
everybody easily grew into liking.
Next time you come, boys, leave your
bachelor diffidence at home and bring
along with your goats a pair of those
radiant girls that have made tho
Willamette valley as famous for its
beautiful women as it is for its Angora3
and long-wools."
PERSONAL MENTION.
Albany Democrat.
Charles Galloway, of Brownsville,
was in Albany, Saturday, to take leave
of Dr. Darrin. Ho reports that he is
about cured of a most distressing
heart, stomach and liver trouble.
J. L. Oxford, of Brownsville, was in
town Saturday on hia way to Montana.
It will be remembered that he was
cured of almost total deafness by Dr.
Darrin last June. He can now hear
as well as ever in his life.
P. A. Baccy, Jefferson, drove to
town the other day and reports that he
is jiermanently cured of deafness one
ear, 13 years ago, while Dr. Darrin
was in Portland, the other since tho
doctor's sojurn In Albany.
B. M. Crawford, of Calapooia street,
rejoices over his relief from severe
pains iu his back and kidneys and
feels five years younger after two
w-M'ks treatment by Dr. Parrin,
W. W. I'arrish, of Sodaville, visited
this city last week and reports the
cure of his deafness as permanent
