Chicago, Dec. 31.— Deadly grippe, which has already faatened itself upon nearly every city east of the Miaeiaeippi river, ie spreading westward with ap palling rapidity. Not aiuce the terri- tle epidemic of 1889-90 have there been such ravages by the fearful malady as at the present time, according toapecial dispatches galheted fiom many aourcer. Mild, open wiather, highly uneeasona- ble, ia held responsible by heahh au thorities. Pittsburg ia the chief complainant. So many people there are ill that the streetcar service is crippled and otlice buildings are practically empty. Be sides Pittsburg, New York, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Philadelphia, Cleveland, Boston, Milwaukee and other Eastern and Western cities were reported to be wrestling with the disease, a number of deaths in each city occurring daily. “ La grippe, as the French call it,” said Dr. Herman Spalding, of the Chi cago Health department, “ travels with the speed of a prairie fire. It travels along the lines of transportation, as i* is carried by tiavelers fboin one city to another. It ia decidedly contagious and there is no effective way of check ing its spread. If other cities become badly affected, Chiago is sure to be hit, because of the thousands of travelers who arrive daily in Chicago from^very point of the compass.” From New York word comes that the grippe has begun a devastating crusade in that city and that among its victims have been opera singeis and man) actors and actresses. There were 63 deaths in the metropolis last week Besides this there were many deaths from pneumonia, influenced by the grippe bacillus. Physicians in Boston say there are at least 60,000 cases now in that city. Cincinnati has 2,000 cases and physi cians say tiiat new cases are developing by the score every hour. ON SECOND STAGE. Battlezh'p Fleet Leave% Trinidad for Rio Janeiro, Port of Spain, Dec. 31.—The Ameri can battleship fleet weighed anchor at 4 o’clock Sunday afternoon and steamed for Kio Janeiro. Accompanying the fleet were the supply ships Culgoa and Glacier. Early in the morning the signal went up. from Rear Admiral Evans’ flagship Connecticut to prepare for deartuie at 8 a. m., but owing to a delay in the coaling of the battleship Maine from the collier Fortuna, it war- necessary to change the time of sailing. Long before the hour set a myriad of small craft, chiefly launches and steam yachts, moved up and down along the lines of anchored battleships, the mer ry parties aboard shouting faiewells to the departing visitors. Thousands of residents climbed the surrounding hills to view the great ships as they moved outward on their journey of 3,000 miles and more, while boatloads of excursion ists went to the small islands in the gulf and otherB to the floating dock to catch the last glimpse of the ships. The fleet presented a magnificent ap- peaiance as it steamed out in four col umns with the supply ship» trailing, a distance of 400 yards separating one di vision from another. With the Con necticut in the lead the battleehips headed for the Booas and steamed ma jeetically through the grand Boos and thence along the northern coast of Trin idad. An average of from 10 to II knots an honr will carry the fleet to the end of the second lap of the 14,000- mile journey in about 12 days, and it was announced by Admiral Evans be fore his departure that he expecta to reach Bio Janeiro on Friday evening January 10. • Nativsa Facing a Famine. Hillsdale, Mich., Dec.31.— Secretary H S. Myers, of the general conference of Free Baptists, said today: “ Ac cording to advices just received by me from our missions in Bengal and Oris sa, India, four months of rain is the usual allowance in Lucknow, India, in a year, but during the year 1907 it has rained only four days. The result is famine everywhere. Thousands of the population are suffering and before re lief comes next August hundreds of thousands must die unless relief comes from Christian lands.” Provide for Presidents. New York, D,c. 31.— Ex-President Grover Cleveland, under the title of “ Onr People end Their Ex-Presi dents,” has contributed an interesting article to the Youths' Companion for January 6. Referring to the poverty of Jefferson after he left the presidency as a blow to national pride, Mr. Cleveland declares definite and generous provision should b3 made for the maintenance of chief magistratee. He deals with the subject at length, ami explains that hw feels he can do so without bis sincerity being questioned. Fatal Row Over 6 Cents.

STUDY FORESTRY. 8tudents at Oregon Agricultural Col lage Gatherirg Tree besot, By E. A Grjgon Agricultural College. The students in forestry at the Agri cultural college are ui king their first oollection of seeds of native trees and rhiubi for use iu the «»tablishment of a forest tree nutiety and arboretum. The purpose in view is not only that the work t-hali he instructive to the student >n the study of seeds and aeed- a.e, silviculture and deudiolngy, but that the plant shall be a socre* of data to the whole state upon Ihe growth, habit, resistance and general character of the trees and shrubs of Oregon, so far as is possible to grow them upon the same site and similar conditions. Not only are io<al seeds being col lected hut seeds fr m the home dis tricts are coming in from friends ol students and the iDstimtion. This kindness on the part of tnose residing in ihe more distant and mountainous parts oT the state is highly appreciated, as it enables tiie class to obtain a much greater variety than otherwise would be possible with the time and means at the command of either students or in stitution. Owing to the fact that the coarse ie bat one year old, only the general and preliminary phases of the subject have been considered by Ihe students in the work. The O. A. C. Forest club, an organization of those interested in the forests of the state, is now diacnaaing forest fire laws, their enforcement, effi ciency and improvement. Each stu dent Is assigned a phase of the topio in hand aud in due time reports bis find ings to the clnb. Prominent timber, mill and lumbermen upon invitation discuss various topics before the olnb, as transportation, timber preservation, forest conservation, re-forcstation, im proved methods of lumbering, (1. S. forest service work and similar topics. Later the advanced student« will take up work looking to the solution of some of the very practical problems new be fore the wood users of the oouitry. The great problem of what to do with the waste, including tho standing timber that is injured by insect and fungus foes, will be one of the first to be investigated as toon as the equip ment of the department will permit. The statement ia made npon good authority that fifteen per cent of the mature timber on the western elope of the central region of the Cascade is wholly lost through fungons diseases, and that another fifteen per cent is graded as cull. Beetles, borers and minor foes do considerable further damage, and it is safe to say that the sum total of these losses most amount to millions of dollats. It Is reasonable to suppose, in the face of recent reenlts in agricultural practices in onr own country, to say nothing of the modern forestry practices of Europe, that the major part of this loss could be tamed to gain through the intelligent investi- gation of the troubles and the applica tion of modern measures for combatting these foes of the foreet. Other great problems are those relat ing to taxation, re-forestation, utiliz ing mill waste, improved methods ol harvesting the crops, disposing of the debris and weed trees, limber technol ogy and the preservation of lumber. These problems together with many more it is the purpose of the eollege to help solve through the department of forestry, as well as train men to take hold of the practical work and prob lems of our forests and thus insure the best possible use of the tree crop.

It is used by physicians with results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts: nm —The indisputable evidence that it is harmless: Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi lates the food: Third—It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil. It is absolutely safe. I t does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotio and does not stupefy. I t j 3 unlike Soothing Syrupy Bateman’s Drops, Godfrey’s Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how*, ever, is to expose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To onr knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by regulating the system—not by stupefying it—and our readers are entitled to the information.— H all’s Journal o f Health.

SKIN DISEASES H U M O R S IN T H E B L O O D When the blood is pure, fresh and healthy, the skin will be soft, smootfc and free from blemishes, but when some acid humor takes root In the circu lation its presence is manifested by a skin eruption or disease. These humors get into the blood, generally because of an inactive or sluggish condition of the members of the body whose duty it is to collect and carry off the waste and refuse matter of the system. This unhealthy matter is left to sour and ferment and soon the circulation becomes charged with the acid poison. The blood begins to throw off the humors and acids through th* pores and glands of the skin, producing Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin eruptions of various kinds. Eczema appears, usually with a slight redness of the skin followed by pustules from which them flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, face, arms and legs, though other parts of the body may be affected. In Tetter the skin dries, cracks and bleed*: the acid in t!ie blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, which are intended to keep it Soft and pliant, causing a dry, feverish condition and giving it • hard, leathery appearance.
