WHY DON'T
YOU
Use Electricity
SSSSSI
for Lighting
hi jujmw bJJig Jg.B'. SJ""'l"W WMw
It is certainly cheaper than oil, costing only 1 cents
per night for a 1G candle power light.
It is less trouble, needs no attention and is always
ready.
It is safer, and where used will reduce insurance if
oil is entirely eliminated.
There is no danger from fire.
Lines will bo extended to any part of town where the business
warrants such extension and tho consumer can have either the same
flat rate as was used by tho former management, or if tho consumer
so desires a meter will be Installed.
If you arc thinking of using electricity, let us know and some
ono will call upon you to give any information you may desire.

Cambridge in about 30 minutes ride
l'y trolley from Boston, across the
Charles river. Our primary object
was Harvard College, where we spent
several hours visiting the many halls
of learning on the grounds of the
college proper, which havo an area of
2.t acres, with 22 buildin
cost $10,0(10.
Harvard has 4000 students and
$I2,r.(io,ooo worth of property. Among
many of the buildings we can only
recall a few: Harvard Hall, built in
1715; Massachusetts Hall, built in
1720, served as a barrack for American
soldiers in the Revolution; Gray's
Matthew's etc. Wadsworth House
was used for 12:1 years as the home of
the Presidents of Harvard, and at one
time was Washington's headquarters.
Gore Hall has the University Library
of more than 2.10,000 volumes.Memorial
Hall was built to commemorate the
ninety-five Harvard men who fell in
defense of the Union.
Near Mcim iial Hall is an ideal
statue of John Harvard; tho Teabody
museum and other buildings. Cam
bridge Common has Soldiers' Monu
ment, with several cannon captured
from the BriiUh. Here also is Wash
ington Elm, where on July 3, 1775,
Washington took command of the
army. A short distance from the elm
stands tho home, once occupied by
General and Lady Washington ; the
house of .the late Henry W. Long
fellow, and Lowell House, built Ir
17(50. Visitors to these homes arc all
treated with courtesy. We had
pleasant visit nt the "Deanery." Rev.
George R. Hodges, dean of Cambridge.
was formerly a Pittsburger. Just
across tho street from the homo of
Reverend Hodges is Radcliffe College,
where Helen Keller was a student and
graduate.
From Cambridge wo wended our
way to Mt. Auburn cemetery. Tho
largo gateway is of Egyptian archi
tecture, and tho Sphinx is but a short
distance from tho entrance. This was
tho earliest garden cemetery in
America. Here we found tho monu
ments of many distinguished persons :
Edward Everett, Charles Sumner,
Phillips Brooks, Edwin Booth, Fanny
Fern, Dorothy Dix, Professor A gassiz,
and hosts of others.
From Mt. Auburn wo went to Lex
ington, where the first blood of the
Revolutionary War was shed; The
house where the first hero fell is still
here, and in good condition. From
Lexinerton to Concord is but a short
distance. Here we made the acquaint
ance of a guide, and under his guid
aneo wo could see and learn more
about Concord in a few hours than we
could find out for ourselves in many
days.
" We followed tho truil of Taiil Revere
on that fateful night, noting here and
there where the skirmishing took
place, until wo reached Concord
hnMfre. where the first stand was
made. Monuments and tablets mark
all the points of interest.
Tho old Manse dates from 17G5, and
was tho home of Hawthorne for four
years, as was also the Wayside Inn
from 1852 to 18C4. Tho Alcotts lived
in the house adjacent. Ralph Waldo
V house, in which ho dwelt
from 1833 to his death in 1883, is at the
junction of the old Boston and Lex
ington roads. A small house marks
the site of tho famous hut of Thoreau
Sleenv Hollow cemetery has the graves
of Hawthorne, the Alcotts, and other
well-known people of that city.
Much more might be said, but lest

ONE SMALL GRAFT
Congressmen Will Still Be Supplied
With Worthless Garden Seeds
for Distribution.
Congress came very near abolishing
the practice of giving away garden
seeds at tho last session, but finally
continued this petty graft. There is
no more propriety in giving away
common garden seeds than in giving
away hoes, rakes, mowing machines
or Jersey cows. In addition to the
impropriety of the thing is tho fact
that most of the seed given away have
been of inferior varieties and not true
to name. If a man gets a lot of these
seeds it does not pay him to plant
them. The Departmentof Agriculture
tests their vitality, but it can not
ascertain whether tho seeds are of the
varieties represented until tho crop
grown from them Is harvested.
There are a few congressmen who
think it gives them favor with their
constituents to send them these pack
ages of seeds, but many of the
congressmen know better. It is hoped
that the majority of the members of
both houses of congress will soon see
tho propriety of doing away with the
free distribution of common seeds,
Tho funds appropriated for that pur-
poso can be expended to good ad
vantago iii introducing and testing
economic plants not yet known in this
country and in improving tho plants
wo now have. Rural Northwest.

to Rest at Revelstoke,
British Columbia.
A wide circle of friends will regret
tho announcement of the death of
Mrs. Beatrice Cowan, which occurred
at Golden on Friday, September 7,
The deceased lady was well known
here, and the announcement that she
had passed away on Friday was re
ceived with keen sorrow by the many
friends here.
The funeral took place Tuesday
afternoon from the residence in the
Cowan block to tho Roman Catholic
church, where a most impressive
service was held. From the church to
the cemetery the remains were followed
by a largo number of eitizons, friends
of tho family, who were there to show
their respect and esteem. Over and
around tho casket, which was simply
yet handsomely ornated, were piled in
great profusion tho wreaths from
many friends, a marked evidence of
tho high esteem for tho deceased lady

COUNCIL REVERSES VOTE"

Ordinance, Then Digs It Up
Again.
Councilman VanOrsdel is still after
the shade trees. His ordinance mak
ing it tho duty of property owners to
trim their trees to a height of 25 feet,
wneretnesamo uiterrere in any manner
with electric wires, was defeated Mon
day night by a vote of four to one, but
this defeat did not appear to discourage
the member from the First Ward In
the least, and beforo the final adjourn
meni oi trie meeting ne secured a
reconsideration of tho vote, with tbe
result that tho ordinance was resur
rected from the doad and again iutro
duced and read first time. The
measure will come up for final consid
eration at the first council meeting In
October.
A strong remonstrance from prop
erty owners, in the form of a protest
against the passago of tho ordinance,
was presented at tho meeting and the
names of the signers wcro ordered
read. Auditor Stouffer started in on
tho long list of signatures, but had
not proceeded far until ho was in-
rormea Dy uouncuman uoad that a
sufficient number of names had been
read. Other members of the council
also appeared to be satisfied with tho
number of names read, and tho peti
tion was ordered placed on file. The
ordinance was then placed on its final
passage and failed to pass, the council
voting as follows : Aye, VanOrsdel ;
no, Cosper, Grant, Stafrin, Coad;
absent, Ay res and Sibloy.
Later in tho evening Councilman
VanOrsdel made a plea for the recon
sideration or tho vote which' had put
his pet measure to sleep. Ho spoke
with considerable warmth, bitterly
attacking Dr. Mark Hayter for his
action in leading the fight against the
ordinance and circulating remon
strances against its passago. At the
conclusion of his remarks, a recon
sideration of the vote on tho ordinance
was ordered, and this time tho measure
met a more nospitaoio reception, a
majority of the council reversing their
votes in its favor. Tho ordinaneo was
then introduced and givon its first
reading.
It is rumored that in tho event of
tho passage of the ordinaneo by the
council, the aid of the referendum will
be invoked by interested property
owners to nseortain tho desires of the
taxpayers concerning tho measure
That there Is strong public sentiment
against tho proposed law is clearly
shown by the largo number of signa
tures on the remonstrance against its
passago now on fllo in tho office of the
City Auditor.
Dallas College Winners.
Miss Mildred L. Clemens and Miss

An interesting experiment was tried
In a small town In the East A dollar
was tagged and ou tho tag was the re
quest to note to whom it was paid and
for what. In a few hours it had
passed through tho hands of a grocer,
a butcher, a collector, a bookstore
man, a hardware merchant and a
preacher. In a few days it had paid
over f 100 worth of debts. The idea
was to show that a dollar spent at

aud that its actual monetary value is
not its full measure of good in a com
munity. Sj?nt with acatalogiohouse
it leaves the home town and tines no

WANTS TWO WEEKS' FAIR
President Downing Believes Better
Opportunity Should Be Given
to Sec Exhibits.
Presidont Downing's proposition to
hold the fair ton days or two weeks is
all right. The fair is an educational
organization for the wholo poople. It
is a pity to put in a wholo year's work
and then have half tho good effect
spoiled by a few day's rain. Tho ex
hibits should bo seen by a largo num
ber of peoplo. The officers of the fair
have a just prldo iu tho exhibits. The
fair is a grand one, and deserves tho
support of the stato and tho people.
Tho cattlo, machinery, the pavilion
are all high-class, and as good as
anything that was at tho Lewis and
Clark fair, as far as they go. Tho
pity of the thing is that tho hop pick
ing soason, or an accidental twist of
Jupiter Pluvius makes the wholo thing
a financial and educational failure.
This should not occur again. Tho
fair should last two weeks. The great
events should be on movablo days.
About three days of horse racing
would be enough. Lot there bo special
days for the Grange, tho public
schools, tho colleges and tho Oregon
manufacturer should have a day. Wo
aro a great state, and all interests
should bo recognized at a great stato
