That there ia a need of timber tet for ipeciea of wood concerning which there ia at present little or no data rela tive to their mechanical and physical prorties is recognized on every hand today. The engineer of a large western rail road recently hail occasion to purchase a considerable amount of tructural tim ber. The company from which thi purchase was made cuts a largo amount of western larch. Iu fact, thi specie make up approximately 40 per cent ol their total cut. There is at the present time practically no data on the strength of thi species, and on this account the railroad engineer did not think it ad visable to make use of a material in their construction work, the proiiertie ol which were not known, and refused to accept western larch aa a part of their order, merely because they know noth ing pf ita proierties. The forest service timber test work i demonstrating the value of a number of wood heretofore little used on account of lack of knowledgo of their properties. It 1 quite possible that western larch will prove to be a suitable for structur al purposes a a numlier of specie now In use to a greater or less extent, and it ia planned to be in testa to ascertain It value a soon a arrangements can be made for securing the material. 1 The Weather. The first four day of the week were clear, with an abundance of sunshine. During the afternoon tetneratures were decidedly above the average, but at night the weather waa a a rulo unsea sonably cool. On Friday night a mark d change to showery and cool weather took place, a condition that continued for the remainder of the week. During thi period temperatures, more especial ly during the afternoon, were far below the normal. West of the Cascades the rainfall was moderate, but east of the range it waa lighter in amount. Thun- lerstorm were quite general on Satur day, accompanied at many point by high wind, but no damage of any mo ment waa reported. Dies ot Hemorrhage. C. P.

The startling experience of the editor of the Indepenaent in his journey across the coast range mountains on a "buckboard" wag ou reminds one of a similar ride portrayed by Mark Twain in his "Innocents Abroad". While he incidentally remarks that "he got there alright". A second dose of the same medicine would produce nausea and rejection altogether. Residents of the Hoodview dis trict report a very heavy rain storm there Friday night, arrareDtly. diminutive cloud burst, which caused considerable damage especi ally ou hillside ground where pota to rroos were erowing. The task ot digging them was alloted to the elements. A representative of a Chicago lumber firm was tn town during the week for the purpose of buying Oregon dressed fir lumber for his house. The quality desired was not obtainable here, hence he was compelled to go on to Newberg, where it is presumed: tne oruer can be readily filled. Five passenger cars well filled passed this station Monday morning bound cityward. Such an exodus of the people toward the metropolis can be accounted for only on the score of "Circus" attractions. How ever, many would deny making the trip for that especial purpose, ex clusively. Uarrimaa Innocent. New York, Aug. 28. Edward II. Ilarriman, through his counsel, demurs to the suit brought against him and 27 other detendanta in the matter of the Portland, Nehaleni & TiiiamnoU Railwav company of Oregon. In the plea entered Mc Craken, president of the railway company, is one of the defendants named, as is the Atlas Contract & Supply comppny of California. The plaintiff is Henry Melville Walker of New Jersey. Harjiman rravs that the suit against him be dismissed on the grounds that all the defendants oth er than himself are citizens either of Oregon or California, are India' pensable to the suit, and cannot be brought within the jurisdiction of the circuit court here. Walker, who had a contract to float the company's bonds, accused Ilarriman of effecting a conspiracy against him, and asks 500,000 damages.

Worth the Diffareno. A big Jobber aeut an aspiring young man on the roud to opeu up a new ter ritory where a new railroad was going through. All the towns being new, there were no hotel accommodations, and It wua necessary for the salesman to secure rueoU aud lodging at restau rant, etc., where the price waa 2o cent per meal. On looklug over the expense account the manager noticed all meals charged at 50 centa. "Look here, Charlie; I aee you have charged us DO cents per meal ou your trip, and I am relinbly Informed that It Is Impossible to get a meal for more than 23 conts In your entire territory. How about it?" "Well," said the salesman, "you are right. It did cost uie but US cents per meal, but I tell you, sir, It's worth the other 25 to eat tlioso meals." New York Times.
