They are enjoying the lull, as it were, between harvest and fall seeding time. About one-third of the grain, it is esti mated, remains nntbreshed in the Grand Ronde valley. The crop over in that section, was exceptionally good this year The county court has denied the peti tion for the removal of Gilbert Mintbron from the guardianship of the children of Rose Minthorn, a deceased Nez Perce Indian. Pete Pamburn threshed 21 acres of wheat that yielded 135 bushels. Another reservation farmer, Ed. LaFave, reports 1095 sacks of good wheat, spring sown, from 70 acres. Samples of wheat received from the Vansycle country show the effects of the dreadful hot winds which occurred in that section before grain matured. It is badly shriveled. Superintendent of water works, Gillis, has been engaged this week in repairing the big water tank, which has leaked considerable ever since its construction by the contractor.

As a topicai (external) appli cation have found Chamberlain's Pain Balm the best remedy I have ever used for neuralgia of any kind. I have const antly recommended it to many persons William Home, M. D., Jenesville, Wis. Sold by Osburn. In a recent letter to the manufacturers Mr. W. F. Benjamin, editor of the Specta tor, Rushford, N.

Aa aunt of mine, who resideiat Dexter, Ioa., was about to visit me a few years since, and before leaving home wrote me, ask ing if they were sold here, stating if they were not she would bring a quantity with her, as she did not like to be without them." Tbe medicines referred to are Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, famous for its cures of colds, and croup ; Cham berlain's Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame back, pain in the side and chest, and Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy for bowel complaints. These medicines have been in constant nse in Iowa for almost a quarter of a century. The people have learned that they are articles of great worth and merit, and nnequaled by any other. They are lor sale by us burn. Angus Gillis is seriously contemplat ing a trip to Africa. His brother John, who is already there, writes of flattering prospects, and if nothing profitable turns np, between this time and early winter, the probabilities are that Angus, and perhaps his family, will emigrate to that land of gold and speculation. Athena friends would indeed be sorry to see them go, and earnestly hope they may decide to remain. It's about as hard to break soma peo ple of bad habits as it is to break Malarial Fever when it once gets a firm hold upon one. Mr. C. Himrod, of Lancaster, Oh., says, "Simmons Liver Regulator broke a case of Malarial Fever of three years, standing for me, and less than one bottle did the business. I shall use it when in nead of any medicine, and I recommend it." . . IXjhe Athena mill started in on another f lanrtA trlav fatm fKa flriina f va An WaA- nesday.

After the reasembl ingot the democratic state convention today, business proceeded with expedi tion. Ex-Congressman Hosea H. Rock well of Chemung, was elected permanent chairman. He made an able speech in advocacy of the Chicago platform and ticket. The platform unreservedly endor sed the platform adopted by the demo cratic party in the national convention at Chicago, pledges William J. Bryan and Arthur Sewall a hearty and active sup port and declares as its deliberate judge ment that never in the history of the democratic party has a platform been written which embodied more complete ly the interest of the whole people, as distinguished from those who seek legis lation for private benefit, than that given the country by the national democratic fconvention of 1896. J John Boyd Thatcher of Albany, was nominated for governor ; Hon. Wilbur F. Porter for lieutenant-governor, and Rob ert O. Titus for judge of the court of ap peals.

East Oregonian : Isaac Rudock and John Riley, prisoners in the Umatilla county jail, walked out from behind the bars through the open jail doors Monday evening and made for tall timber. Riley made a successful escape, and. when night had closed down, he was still at liberty. But Rudock was quickly re captured, and, for the second time, brought back to the jail, a captured fugi tive. Ruddock was seen walking toward the railroad track, and the officials in the sheriff's office were informed that Rud deck was abroad in the land. A quick search of the jail was made, and the dis covery was that Ruddock and Riley were missing. , Ruddock was found down at the O. R. & N. Go's track hiding under a car. : He remarked when once more in cus tody that he would always walk out of jail when the doors were found open and be could so easily escape. I Challenges Mitchell, r A. D. Stillman, the well-known Pend leton attorney, has issued a sweeping challenge to Senator John H. Mitchell, for joint debate in Pendleton, on Octo ber 3rd. Mr. Stillman brings the chal lenge to an end in the following words: "The exalted position you and I res pectively hold you as a United States senator, and I as a sovereign citizen of the United States justifies the challenge I now make to you in a joint debate on the third day of October, you aa champ ion for McKinley, and I will lay on for Bryan. V "You cannot have the prudential reas ons that caused McKinley to refuse Bry an's challenge, and Harrison to decline the challenge of Teller, and I will there fore expect your acceptance of tbis chal lenge by return man, so that proper ar- rangements may be made. - . "Yours very respectfully, "A. D. Stillman." ,- Will The W. & C. R. Extend. It iB understood, although the officials of the road are reticent about the matter, rtbat should the 0. R. & N. extend its road from Dayton to Covello that the W. & O. R., will also branch out in that direction, probably as tar as Lewiston, Idaho. The trade of the rich agricultural region east of Dayton is a bone of con tention between the rival roads, which will probably end before fall in both roads having linej into that part of the country. The intimation that the W. & O. R, contemplates branching out to lewiston seem to partially fulfill predictions made some time ago that, according to the sur vey of the Burlington route, it was highly probable that the line would strike Lew iston, thence go on to Dayton, where the W, A C. R. would be utilized to tbe Columbia and so on to the coast. It is with this end in view, possibly, that this extention will be made, which, fi carried out, will place Walla Walla on a main line of one of the great transconti nental roads. Died. Eva, the 13-year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Clark Walter died of typhoid fever Monday. The remains were taken to Walla Walla, Wednesday for inter ment.

A distressing accident occurred at Grants Monday, resulting in the instant death of J. H. Graham, a breakman on No. 23, in the employ of the O. R. A N. Co. When the west bound train reached Grants at about 9 p. m., a stop was made to take a car from the switch.

My husband was in debt and I being anxious to help him thought I would sell self-heating flat ironB, and I am doing splendidly. A cent's worth of fuel will heat the Iron for three hours, so you have a perfectly even heat. You can iron in half the time and no danger of scorching the clothes as with the old iron, and you can get the moBt beautiful gloss. I sell at nearly every house, as the iron eaves so much fuel everybody wants one. I make tl 50 on each iron and have not sold less than ten any day I worked.
