RAILWAY. Fully 800 Persons Enjoy the Trls- Through Dolightful and Pro ductlvo Country. In response to invitations from President E. E. Lytic and C. E. Ly tic, General Manager of the Pacific Railway & Navigation Co., fully 500 Hillsboro people boarded seven flat cars at the foot of Main street last week Thursday evening, and at 7:35 the train, laden with the happiest, jolliest and largest crowd ever drawn' by railway out of this. citv. pulled out for Buxton, to which point the new line is com pleted. And such a ride! Not be cause of the magnificence of the rolling stock or the speed made, but because this was the first excursion train to run over the new Tilla mook line, destined to be in the near luture one 01 tne Dest ana most profitable railways in the whole of Oregon. And because further, that every one of the 500 excursionists will remember the ride and the uniform kindness and courtesy of the officials who made it possible, for many, many years. The party was accompanied by the Hillsboro band and the Hills boro Ladies' band, and their stiring music added to the eood feeling of all and the delightful strains, echo ing back from the mountains to the west, supplemented with the in vigorating and inspiring breeze com ing from the ocean, forty miles away, made every one leei mat he or she were having the time of their lives. From Hillsboro to Banks the road is completed and in fine condition. ... r r, -n . u erable is yet to be done in the way of ballasting, though good time was made and very few rough places encountered. The cars, seven flats, furnished with two outside seats of plank and another running along the centre oi each, furnished ample room for all. The only thing that in any way marred the pleasure of the occasion was the fact that Mr. Lytle was unable to take every man, woman and child in the city on this trip, but owing to the lack of rolling stock, this was impossi ble, and the number had to be lim ited. Arriving at Buxton, the crowd left the train and went up the hill to the village a half mile away. Here they were met by Ch'n Crawford of Buxton who made a short speech of welcome and thank ed the visitors for their presence. Mayor Cornelius, Dr. Tamiesie, Dr. F. A. Bailey, General Manager C. E. Lytle and Engineer Davis made short addresses and took oc casion to say that the visit was a source of much pleasure to all from Hillsboro and those who had join ed the party along the way. The speakers also thanked the people of Buxton for the aid given in se curing the right-of-way, for with out their assistance the road might not have been built. Particular stress was laid on the fact that while the new road was a great thing for Hillsboro, it was of far more importance to Buxton. It linked that place in bands of steel to the county seat, the markets of Portland and the great city of Chi cago, and a few years hence Buxton would become a center of impor tance, far beyond the anticipations of any of its present inhabitants. It takes money to build railroads, and plenty of it. And it takes something besides dollars and cents. To push an enterprise of this kind to a successful conclusion, there is an iraparative demand for pluck, perseverance and brains. All these qualifications are possessed by the Ly ties and their able corps of as sistants. The road is built through Banks to Buxton, opening up some of the richest country and the finest timber lands in Oregon, and there will be no let up until the iron horse enters Tillamook, the future greatest summer resort of the Pa cific coast. At 1 1 o'clock the crowd returned to the train and on the stroke of 13 steamed into Hillsboro. During the return trip the great harvest moon shone down in all its splen dor, making the night as bright a day, and along the whole distance songs were sung by the happy and greatful excursionists, who ex tend thanks to the officials of P. R. & N. for a delightful trip. The Code of Honor. It was hot, almost intolerably hot, as it can be in New York in August and in the Hoffman House the dark ened window; and closed doors, shutting out the stifling air of the sun soaked streets, made an artificial twilight at noonday. The great ho tel was as silent as a catheral. Im pelled less by thirst than idleness, I lounged into the bar, where the linen coated bartender, reluctantly laid aside his newspaper and stood up limply to take my order. This was a matter needing consideration. "It is early in the day for a julep," I hazartl, the bartender made no reply but stood drumming on the polished counter with his fingers. "But," I said, "I think I'll risk it." Then I watched him at hisjuggl- ing tricks with the cracked ice and the old Bourbon aud the sugar and the sweet fresh mint. He was as light of hand as a skillful maid do ing her mistress's hair for her wed ding and, after all, there are few things pleasanter than to feel on one's face the cold vapor, laden with the perfume of the mint, that rises from the julep on a hot, hot day. I was thinking so when a new comer en tered. He was a type com mon enough in New York. Tall, youngish, but older in manner than appearance, rather overdressed, good looking, but not as good look ing as Nature intended him to be, he carried with him a suggestion of cards and race courses and much champagne. He came up to the bar and, standing a few yards from me. said in a voice which, it was evident he did not care whether I overheard or not. "Bartender, I want a drink. Just one little drink. I hav'nt a cent of money, but I want a drink badly and 1 11 pay you some day." Nope, said the bartender non chalantly. "(Jan t afford to stand drinks to every man who's broke and thirsty at my expense and. if I did It at the expense of the house, d lose my job. Sorry." Even to my inexperienced ears it was plain that the bartender's tone eft no hope of relenting. The stranger hesitated a moment, then turning to me, raising his hat as he aid so, said "Excuse me, sir; you heard what said to our friend here. I need one drink and need it badly. Pre naps you know how it is. I'll be all right after one, but that one I must have. I am more or less of a gentleman, though appearances may be against me at the moment, and, if you'll lend me a quarter, I'll give it wt.a, it i ever get the chance. it was not easy to denv him so I gave mm tne coin. Thank you!" was all he said to me. Now. bartender, a Arv mar. tini, please." Again those masri finders went tn wum ana presently th lifti- glass was brimming with its faint golden liquid stood before the stranger. Sir, your health I" a ho the glass in my direction he for putting it to his lips. He drank it as a cocjuau should be drank, in two mouthfuls. first a sin and !,, one lingering swallow. Oood, he said as he pushed th empty glass back across the bar. vu, mm was exactly what I needed. Then he turned to me. "I told you, sir," he said, "that I was more or less of a vntum How much more or W ,,t, i ' does not matter; but at least I pay my debts of honor before I pay my whiskey bills! I thank you sir - He placed the quarter upon 'the counter in front of me and before either him or I could realize what he was doing, he was already on his way to the door. Then the bar tender wake up "Say!" he called out. "Come backt Come and have a drink on me I ou deserve it " "N.?Mtha,nksv';.repiied the Strang, er. 'Much obliged, but I only needed one.

' ELECTRIC LINE BIDS ASKED FOR WORK WILL BEGIN BY SPTi , Caa.eta to Corns'-' the Road to i Hillsboro Pors.t Grove Within sr. From The Portla.d Oregonun, Bids will be asted by the United Railways on the construction of the city lines included in the interurban projects mapped out by the com pauy. C. E. Lo and his associ ates expect to award the contracts and have work on the various city streets under way next week. Estimates and specifications are now being prepared under the di rection ot President Benham, of the United Railways, and will be avail able to contractors within a short time. The biJs will be advertised for August 13, when1 tenders will be opened and the contracts awarded to firms making the most advanta geous offers. Work w ill then pro ceed and it is expected to have the mileage projected within the city completed in eight months. It is the plan then to go ahead with the in terurban lines. It is estimated by officials of the United Railways that the building of the city lines will entail an ex pense of at least $7.so,ooo. To finance the construction, a working capital of $i,ooo,ooo has been as sured by the pledge given the United Railway Company by twenty cap italists, most of whom are Califor nians whose names have already been mentioned as backing Mr. Loss, that they will each contribute $50,000. Mr. Loss is one of the twenty but the names of the others are withheld for the time being. John B. Rogers, tormerly consult ing engineer for the Ocean Shore Railroad, California,' has resigned bis position there Vd. v. ill accept the same title with th United Rail ways, with the offices at Portland.

C. E. Loss, accompanied by John B Rogers, reached Portland Sun day from San Francisco. "We will let the contracts for construction at once, said Mr. Loss. "We hope to have work be gun on the city lines by September 1. with their completion not later than eight months lrom the time of commencing work.

Because the people of Oregon have paid little attention to the law for the protection of the horti cultural industry from fruit pests, the State Board of Horticulture has recently published a brief copy of the act. Copies are being deliver ed to dealers who handle fruit, but none will be sent to growers in general. Most people do not know the terms of law, except in a gen eral way, that it forbids the sale or shipment of diseased fruit. It is not generally known that the law applies not only to the spraying of diseased Iruit, but also to the sale ot impure spraying materials. The law requires dealers in spraying materials to give the purchaser written guarantee of the purity of the goods. This is an important provision, for there have been in stances known of growers buying materials that were not only worth less, but really harmful to the trees. The grower went to the expense ot buying materials and putting it on the trees and without any return for his labor. One grower it is re liably declared, purchased rpray material which killed all the foli aire on his trees and will probably result in the death of the trees themselves. Independent Enter prise.

C, dispatch to the Daily Oregonian, dated Aug ust. 7th, says: Notwithstanding the repeated statements ot the president and the frequent official announcements of Secretary Loeb, the third-terra talk will not sudside, but rather contin ues to increase as the days go by. It is acknowlenged on every hand that President Roosevelt is sincere in his announcement that he does not want a third term audit is not believed that he is working to se cure a renomination. His personal efforts have been directed toward discouraging third-term talk, and he has been very positive whenever he has discussed this question with his friends and political adviser?. But, as has been pointed out many times in the last few weeks, the presidential nomination comes from the people, and in this case Mr. Rooseyelt is not to be consulted as to his personal desires. It is not difficult to realize that a situation may arise when it will be hard if not impossible for President Roose velt to decline another nomination. Home Use for Lemons. A teaspoon ful of lemon juice in a small cup of black coffee will re lieve bilious headache. Two slices of lemon in a cup of strongly brewed tea, will complete ly cure a nervous headache. Lemon juice is better than any complexion powder for giving per manent clearness and beauty to the skin. . Outward applications of lemon juice will allay irritation caused by the bite of insects. A dash of lemon in plain water is an excellent tooth wash. It not only removes tartar, but sweetens the breath. Taken in hot water, on awaken ing in the morning, lemon juice is an excellent liver corrective, and for stout persons is better than any anti tat medicine ever invented. It is generally supposed that the incubator is a strictly modern and American invention, but this is far from the fact. The ancient Egypt ians were onto the trick and thor oughly understood the advantages of the "wooden hen" thousands of years ago.

Within the next six mouths dis tilleries are to be installed at the sugar factories iu Utah and Idaho, according to the Salt Lake Herald, for the manufacture of denaturized alcohol. General Manager Thom as R. Cutley, of the Utah Sugar company, said last night that in vestigations were beiug carried on along this line to obtain the alcohol from molasses, the uncrystalized syrup produced in the manufac ture of beet sugar. From this pro duct, which contains a large per centage of sugar, quantities of alco hol can be produced at low cost. The removal of the government tax on denaturized alcohol has opened up large possibilities in the manufacture for the arts and a sub stitute for gasoline for motive power. Gem State Rural. A new pest to the fruit trees has been found by S. A, Moulton, ot Forest Grove. One oi his plum trees, which seemed to be infected by some sort of pest, was killed in a tew weeks. Upon investigation it was found that some insect had bored to the heart of the tree, making only a very small hole and hardly noticeable, but on further studying the effects ot this pest many insects were found boriug into the core. No one here seems to be acquainted with this new in truder. Fruit inspector Harris was also at sea, and sent a specimen to the experiment station at Corvallis, where it will be studied. It was learned later that several trees iu different parts of the town also showed signs of their work, some of the limb appearing to be dying and leaves withering. Forest Grove Special. The hog is a wonderful animal when yon come to sum him up and is one of the fixed institutions of this country. Some one once wit tily described him as a manufac turer of hams, lard, hair brushes, head cheese, tooth brushes, glue, buttons, fertilizer, fats, bacon, knife handles, whistles, soaps, sauce, sau sage and satisfaction. As a con denser, he beats the finest steam machinery. He will put ten bush els of corn into less space than a bushel measure. Corn loaned to a hog is cash at a good investment, safe and at an interest. He does what the ancient alchemists never succeeded in doing, by convert ing corn into coin, and thus dis covers the philosopher's stone.
