The recent sale of Cornelius Hughes
shoe repairing business to. T. Irvine,
marked the retirement of another of
the few remaining men who have been
In active business in this city almost
since its beginning. Mr. Hughes says
that when he began his work in Dal
las In 1864, there were but three men
in business here who are still residents
of this city. These wore Hon. W. C.
Brown, J. L. Collins and A. Shultz.
Mr. Hughes has been a personal wit
ness of the growth of Dallas from a
mere "cross-roads" village to a thriv
ing city of over 3,000 inhabitants, and
has seen its property values double,
triple and even quadruple themselves.

promptly and with little trouble. H. 17.

IOWA BOYS VICTORIOUS
With Fenton Out of Game, and Shaw
Crippled, Dallas Goes to
Defeat.
x.
Handicapped by tb loss of its big
forward, Fenton, and by the injured
arm which prevented Shaw, the center,
from playing his usual game, the
basketball team of Dallas College met
its first defeat for this Beason, at the
hands of the fast aggregation from
Muscarine, Iowa, Tuesday and Wed
nesday nights. The score In the first
game was 21 to 14, and In the second,
IS to 13.
The seats for the first game were all
sold before 10 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing, and when the game was called
at 8 :30 o'clock that night, the gym
nasium was packed with the largest
throng of spectators that had ever at
tended a basketball game in this city.
Especially large delegations from
Bickreall and Independence were pres
ent, with their usual striking show of
state loyalty and stanch support of the
team in crimson as representing the
athletic prowess of Oregon against the
pick of the Eastern states.
The local team played hard and well
but it was clearly a hopeless fight long
before the end of the first half, since
the absence of Fenton, and the in
jured condition of Shaw's arm effect
ually broke up the plays upon which
Dallas relies mainly for its scoring.
Bice, the substitute for Fenton, played
a beautiful game on the floor however,
and succeeded in making 8 of the li
points scored.
The Iowa team seemed to be perfect
in goal throwing, and scarcely a shot
that they took during the game failed
to score, while Dallas seemed to be
laboring under adverse fortune in the
matter of basket tossing. Superior to
their opponents in team work, they
secured three shots to Iowa's one, but
nearly every time the ball rolled round
and round the basket rim and dropped
back into the court, while the crowd
of rooters fairly howled with exasper
ation. In the second game Wednesday
evening, Dallas went in with renewed
determination, and until the last sec
ond of the play it was a mere toss-up
which team had the advantage. Dal
las again' demonstrated its marked
superiority in team work, while Iowa
showed, if possible, an even greater
degree of sureness in its goal throw
ing than in the previous game. Ful
ler easily played star for the visiting
team, scoring three baskets, two of
which were the most sensational long
shots ever made In a game on the local
floor. Shaw played a muoh faster
game than he had played on the
night before and scored another goal,
shutting out Littlebrldge, the oppos
ing center, for the first time in 61
games. This game was without doubt
the fastest that has been played on the
local court during the past two years,
and it is commonly conceded that had
the Dallas team been in Its usual con
dition, with its regular line-up, the
tide of victory would probably have
been turned In its favor.
The Iowa aggregation left yesterday
for Corvallls, where a return game
will be played with the O. A. C. five.

Did you ever have the grip, ache all
over in spots, and have your head feel
as though you'd been out the night
before trying to make "Milwaukee
famous," when in reality you went to
bed at 7:30 with an antiflooglstlne
plaster over your wishbone and your
system full of hot lemonade and flax
seed tea and your mouth all puckered
up with quinine? Pa says there Is
no parting so bitter as the parting of
a quinine capsule just as you are in
the act of swallowing it Ma hasn't
any doctor's diploma, but when it
comes to things like grip or cold, she
knows the proper dope to knock them
silly. And when you're coming
through, she knows how to make the
dandy broth and gelatine and poached
eggs and lots ot things to bring you
right up oh the bit and make you feel
like old self again. We have all the
things and lots more, like olive oil
and grape juice and stuff to tone up
your system after you have been up
