TURNS COPPER INTO IRON. B. L. Keogh, of Ottawa Institute, Mikes Discovery. Ottawa It. L. Keogh, of tho Ottawa Collegiate Institute staff, has made a discovery of great scientific and possi bly financial importance. After years of labor and investigation, bo has suc ceeded in transmuting copper into Iron. This, ho says, has never been before accomplished, and demonstrates the fact that the transmutation of tho met als Is possible. Mr. Keoch states that the new ele ment obtained from his experiments with copper answers tho tests usually applied to tne identiucauon or iron. In support of his contentions be ex plains that be Is willing at any time to allow competent judges to undcrtako the work of verifying bis results. "I do not think that the discovery I have made is at present of any finan cial significance," said Mr. Keogh, "but it is possible at a later date some thing of more importance will follow. I have been gTeatly handicapped In the work that I have been carrying on, owing to tho lack of apparatus. Later something of greater importance may follow from the results that have al ready obtained. I intend to continue my researches on tho tranimntation of elements."

Salem Standing between two evils, a record-breaklug Drouth in the Wil lamette Valley uud nu unprccononted scourgo ot the red spider, the hop crop of tho Stato of Oregon hits suffered Immensely tho past week or ten days, nnd the yield, conservatively estimated from tho standpoint of both tho "bulls nnd bears," will fall approximately 3000 bales below that of last year. The yield ot last year was about 84,000 bales, and tho latest oitlmnto for this reason rauges between 82,000 and 100, 000 bales. Tho market has taken on a consider able stimulus as a result ot tho effects ot tho weather and Increased ravages of tho vermin within tho past week, in consequence of which the growers begun to assume a decidedly optimistic attl tude, and littlo trading in futures is the result. Thus far there has boon no remedy presented to combat success fully tho ravages of tho red spider scourgo, which is gaining impetus with each succeeding year, and union thoro ii a visitation uf n good drenching rain within tho next few days (the only thing that will eheek tho destructive work of tho spider), tho loss to the growers cannot bo estimated. Much complaint was received from tho brewers on account of tho laxity or apparent ludifferonee on the part ot tho growers last season In respect to the harvesting of their crops, as a result of wbleh the Oregon crop, which ordl narily brings the top price In both the Eastern and the English markets, sut fercd a severo slump in tho quotations, aud a serious setback In demand. Tho early deliveries wero such an inferior graJo in point ot picking that brewers rofuscd to bid upon tho offerings, and paid the greater prico for tho California and North Yakima crops. Oregon dealers in general havo re coived warnings upon this scoro from tho Eastern factors, cautioning the growers to be more elreuuuect In tbe matter of picking, else tho Oregon hop, which has heretoforo commanded the highest price in tho market, both do mestie and foreign, stands In danger of losing its prestige. BABIES INQU1KY BEGINS. Bute Health Board Bushes Fkylaleaa to Wallowa County. Portland To make an investigation of the epidemic of rabies which has spread over n portion of Wallowa Coun ty, Dr. W. II. Lytle, state veterinarian, left for that section as the represents tive of tho state board of health. Dr. Lytlo will procuro the brains and spinal cord of tho dog that Is reported to have tho rablos, and will bring the specimens hero for examination. "I do not take much stock in the rumors that these animals are afflicted with tho rabies," said Dr. C. 8. White, of the board. "Hydrophobia in any form Is scarcely known west of the ltocky Mountains. There have been re ports of this disease In the psst, but upon investigation the rumors havo been found incorrect. However, we In tend to investigate tbe situation in Wallowa County and ascertain tbe facts at once." Coyotes afflicted with rabies In Wal lowa County have created pandemonium in the neighborhood of lily, on the state line, for some time, according to Infor nation that reached the office of Dr. White. Covotes have bitten domestic animals, and a dog on one farm In Wal Iowa County with the result that the animals havo developed marked symp toms of hydrophobia. A cow that was reported to have been bitten performed sundry antics about the place and ended its gyrations by trying to but down a tree. SALMON BUN FALLING OFT. Packers Fear They Will Lose Money on Chinese Contracts. Astoria While the catch of salmon was slightly bettor following tho !M hour closed season, It was far from be ing satisfactory. The salmon caught average very small, whtlo at this season of tho year largo fish should be coming In. The pack of both pickled and canned salmon Is rapidly dropping be hind, and the question of filling their Cblneso contracts is beginning to bother some of the canners. Last season one of tho local canning companies had a Chinese contract for putting up 40,000 eases, but It packed only aj,uuu eases, and was thus compelled to pay out a not loss of over 11000. This year its Chinese contract is for 32,000 cases, and up to a few days ago It bad packed only about 20,000 eases. Next year practically all tbe Colum bla Itlver plants will bo using tbe new seamless, or what aro termed sanitary, eans. This will result in eliminating the Chlncso contracts to a great extent, and more whlto labor will bo omployod in the plants. Hopgrowers in Trouble, Sulem Hopgrowers In this section are confronted by a serious situation, owinir to the low stage of tho Wlllam- ctto Blvcr. Pickers for tho majority of the ranches must bo transported by boat, and It is impossible to (loat boats ni nnv iiio tinnn tlin Willamette.
