BATH I-ess than (our weeks remain in which to take advantage of the low railroad ratea to go and see the Lew la and Clark exposition and the wonderful North west country. The bis horae and cattle ahow at the Lewiaand Clark eipoaition ia now in progress, opening September 19. It will run for ten day. Some of the moat noted horses in the country are on eahl bition, and in the cattle, aheep an I bug aectiona the entries are highly interest inj;. .Cattlemen and horsemen from all quarters of the United States are in at tendance. N'o clergyman owing obedience to the Church of England in Canada can here after solemnize marriage between a di vorced person and another, so long as the other party to the divorce is living. This was the decision reached by the General Synod of the Dominion of Cana da, representing every diocese and part of the country, from the Atlantic to the Taciflc and from the American boundary to the Arctic Ocean. The lectures on irrigation by Edmund T. Perking, an engineer in the land re clamation service, draw crowds daily at the goverment building, Lewis and Clark expoHition. Mr. Perkin's talks are ill antra tod by stcreopticon views of various localities where government ir rigation work has been undertaken. The pictures and the lecture give one a great deal of useful information about this important subject. The entertain ment is free. A Canadian farmer, noted for bis absent-mindedness, went to town one day and transacted his business with utmost precision. He started on his way home, however, with the firm conviction that he had forgotten something what it was he could not recall, try how he would. As he neared home the con vie tion increased ami throe times he stopped his horse and went carefully through his ocketbook in a vaiu endeavor to discover what he had forgotten. In due course he reached home and was met by his daughter, who looked at him in sur prise, and exclaimed, "Why, father, where have you left mother?" Pall Mall Gazette. One of the most interesting outside attractions for Lewis and Clark exposi tion visitors is the Macleay Park and canon, which begins just outside one of the entrances to the fair. There is no other park in the world like this. A narrow trail, just wide enough for one person at a time, leads up the slope on one side of the canon, gradually de scending to the bottom, along which runs a purling brook. For a mile or more the trail leads through the deep canon, with great fir trees rifting on each side and ferns as tall as a man, growing thickly. Then, at the uper end, the sightseer climbs the narrow trail op the sloe and along the mountain side, coming out at City Park, a beautiful place of landscape gardening. Macleay Park is left just as nature made it, ex cepting that the one narrow path has been cut through. New Equipment is being delivered by the builders to the Chicago & North Western Hy., daily, for the Overland Limited, their fast three-day train to the coast. One of the features of these new cars is the new sleeping car equip ment of la tost derign, maximum size, elm-trie lighted Pullmans. Theso are fitted with ten sections, a drawing room and two private compartments in each car, and are Intended for the Chicago San Francisco service. Similar sleeping cars, equipped with twelve sections, one drawing room and one compartment, will be operated on the Chicago-Portland line. These sleeping cars, togeth er with dining cars and composite-but-fet-smoking, library and observation car, constitute the equipment of the train. In addition to the service that has heretofore been maintained to San Francisco and Portland, the opening of the ew halt Lake line gives a direct Los Angeles connection to the Overland Limited over a new and desirable route. The following is taken from the last issue ot a well-known health journal, and Is suggested housewives who are now putting up their winter supply of fruit, as well worths trial: "The ber ries selected for canning should 1 fresh and firm. Place in a clean, cold jar as many as possible without crushing the fruit. Seal the jar without the rubber, and place In a cold oven, with an asbes tos mat between the can and the floor of the oven. "When the oven ia filled with cans, so placed as not to touch one another, it should be gradually heated, care being taken not to heat too quickly, eIerially if gas is used. After ten min utes, increase the heat of the oven un til it is quite hot, and allow the fruit to remain from 20 to thirty minutes. Hard fruits, such as pears, peaches, ap ples and plums, require longer cooking. "While the fruit is baking, prepare a syrup, allowing one cup of sugar to each quart of water used. Very acid fruits may require more sugar. I-et the sugar dissolve, and bring the syrup just to the boiling point. "When the fruit is cooked, fill the cans to ihe brim with the toiling hot syrup, seal them in the usual way, anil allow them to stand un til cold. While cooling it will be found possible to seal them a little tighter at Intervals, as the (lass contracts. "When the can Is perfectly air-tight, dip the top in liquid paraffin wax, deep enough to rover. When treated ia this way, the fruit mill keep for years. "For the vine of time, ami the excellent rv suits obtained, this method has bten found superior to liny other." 1 On Thursday of last weak 'the travel ing ssnger egtMiui, re!MMMU,i ncj railroad of importance In lbs United States, met in the Auditorium on the Lewis and Clark fair ground. Presi dent J. V. Adams, of the association addressed the meeting, after which he introduced the speakers, among whom were Governor Chamberlain, II. M. Cate, president of Jhe Portland Cummer cial Club and A. L. Craig. General. Pas senger Agent of the O. It. & N. Kuilway. Mr. Craig is a pleasing seaker, one of the ablest railroad men in the United States, and bis remarks were most in teresting and to the point. He stated that the traveling passenger agents had worked early and late to make the expo sition the success it has proven to be and from the day the gates opened un til the present time the travel from the East bad been very large, beyond the expectations of the railroads even. While working for the lament of the roads they represent, the sgeuts had boosted the fair, and much of the suc cess of the great exposition could )e traced to their untiring work, which would be continued until the gates close. Mr. Craig is an able speaker, thoroughly earnest In all he attempts, a genial gentleman to meet and while looking out for the passenger service of the O. K. 4 N. he never loses an oppor tunity to do something for Oregon. Af ter the speeches the ruem!ers of the as sociation were given a trolly ride about Portland. At 1 :30 they were received at the Oregon state building, at 3 o'clock at the Washington building, at 4: 30 at the California building and in the even ing were entertained at a grand ball at the American Inn, at which fully 250 persons were present. Sunday morning they went to Seaside, returning to Glo ble that evening and going from there to Tacoma, thence to Seattle, lunching on the Dakota, one of the 25.000-ton ships of Hill line, and going aboard the Spokane as guests of the Pacific Steam ship company for a trip to Victoria and Vancouver, B. C. They then returned to Seattle and eastward to their homes. Three Hen In the Race. Three candidates for the republican nomination for congress in the First dis trict have taken the lend in the fight, and other aspirants seem to have with drawn voluntarily or to have Iteen elimi nated. The three are: S. H. Huston, of Hiilsboro; C. B. Moores, ot Salem, and Walter L.. Tooze, of Woodburn. lloom ers of V. I. Vawter, of Medford, have announced that he will stay out of the race for private business reasons. Those of I. II. Bingham, of Eugene, have done the same; L.J. Simpson, of North Bend, has not yet seen his way clear to bo come a candidate; W. C. Hawley, of Salem, George W. Wright, of Albany, and B. F. Mulkey, of Ashland, do not appear to have developed much sup port; and Binucr Hermann, incumbent, does not seem in a good position 'to wags tTitf campargnT1 unTess!" "tTieopiOHf tion to him shall be split up, into many camps. If Hermann should run again for the ' nomination, the opposition cf three candidates would probably work in hi favor. Moores and Tooze are striving in the same county, Marion, while Huston is working from .Washington county, where he has the republican element well united for his support. ' Huston feels safe in his own county-, and has carried the war putside the Washington boundaries into counties like Yamhill, Polk, Benton and Lane. He has Ikhmi canvassing the district rather thorough ly in person, and has made frequent trips up and down. Tooze and Moores are having a keen fight in Marion, and in the adjoining counties like Clackamas and Linn. ' W, I. Vater hesitated some time over tike question of entering the . race. It was announced from his camp a month or so ago that he would not be a candi date if Hermann should run, and now unofficial information has drifted in from Southern Oregon that his busincr-s interests will keep him out.

Portland Oregonian. Crop Report. Ttio loner dry sjudi was Itroksn on the 12th by good rains which (ell generally In the western and northern portions of the state. These rains were supple mented by showers ia scattered places on the 13th, 16th and 17th. Some fall plowing and seeding has been done, but the soil is not soft enough for this work to liecome general. Light frosts oc curred in exposed places on several dava, but they did no barm. Hop picking is nearly completed and the crop ia turning out better than ex pected. The rains did not injure the hops but they were detrimental to prunes, the picking and drying of which are well advanced. Ueports indicate that the prune crop will be larger than last year, but much less than a full crop. Late apples are ripening and in dicate from fair to good yields. Corn ia nearly ripe and it is a good crop. Potatoes are generally free from blight and a prosject for a good yield of potatoes is much better than it was lie tore the rains set in. Oregon Indiana. I saw O. C. Applegate a few days ago upon his return from Grand Honda In dian reservation. This reservation lies partly in Yamhill county and partly in Rock, and was reserved for the Indians just fifty years ago. On it are gathered the Indians formerly living in the terri tory between the Columbia river and the California line with the Cascades for an easternly boundary. Treaties were made in lM.r5 with eight tribes and twenty-eight sub-tribes. These Indians through their headmen chiefs signed seven treaties and were gathered from the north and from the south and locat ed on the Grande Ronde reservation. Just how many there were is not of re cord, but a census of 1872 placed on the roll 870 persons. Thirty twoyeais later, 1904, the triltes had dwindled till but 454 were found and fifty of these are dis puted. This results from cupidity and ia easily understood by reciting these facts. Some years ago lands in severalty were deeded to the Indians. The reser vation Including more land han the In dians occupied left a surplus ' to be sold to whito settlers. The sale of lands has gono on until now the . turn of $06,000 has accumulated which the general gov ernment will divide up among the In diana to whom It belong. The fewer Indians, the more money to each, hence the objection to the fifty above mention ed. Of the chiefs who signed the treaties all are dead save Peter McCoy whose for mer hunting ground is along the Urn- qua rivers in the county of that name, The Indian name of this remarkable man is Inject as near as I can make it His name to the treaty is "Peter or In jeci." This man in his younger days Was fond of adventure. About 1845 or 6, he with a handful of braves set out on an exedition to the south, going in to the interior. ot California, where he fell in with Col. Fremont, whom he joined and helped in the conquest of that state. - Peace concluded, he re turned to h!s Umqna home, a traveled man and of distinction with his subject The Califormana who attended the iw is and Clark fair should by all means have paraded him at the exposition He is worthy.
