IN THE MAIL
A pamhlet entitled "The Relations of
tlie Railroads to Trans-Missisisppi ter
ritory," a thrillitg scory well told by
Mr. J. C. Stubbs, a prominent Ham
man man. After reading it one cannot
doubt the importance of the railroads
in the Pacific coast country.
A little pamphlet is headed: "For Ed
itors Who look Ahead." Like all such
things it is just a scheme to sell some
thing. A marked copy of the Christian
Science Sentinel, which tells about a
daily Christian Science paper that is to
be issued soon. One reason is to com
bat the prevalence in the papers of ac
counts of the air being loaded with dis
ease, making it dangerous to live, filling
the minds of men with forebodings.
The object will be to counteract tnis
public nuisance. As a matter of fact,
though, most people don't take much
, stock in these microbe nuisances.
A College Rally.
There was a college rally last night,
a live affair, starting at the college and
embracing the principal streets of the
city. College songs were sung and col
lege yells given loudly, a well-behaved
crowd of students.
It was an inspiration for the game
this afternoon between Willamette and
Albany in progress at press time, with
Albany's best players in line, material
ly strengthened by the addition of Mr.
Dunlap, a new student.

spiritedly discussed and then adopted.

IN THE NEW
DEPOT.
Properly Dedicated, A f in
Structure, I he Yard Liter.
Agent Fronk and his large fjree of
assistants this afternoon began buii
ness in the depot, justcomploled on th'
city side of the yard, where it proyrl y
belongs, a fine structure, a credit to th.
railrood center of the valley. Th-
Itickers' were running, and tickets Wurt
being sold in the neat office.
The structure displays splendid archi
tectural art. The worKmanship has
boen first-class, B-th the outside and
interior work is of a high order. The
seating capacity of the waiting rooms
will be sufficient for many years, the
baggage room is capacious and the
closets are fine affairs, the best to be
secured. Pronerlv the huilHino-liq hnntoH
irom a oasement room. While it does
not eive so much c-round anace fnr thp
building it is much better.
Robert Wakefield, of Portland was
the contractor. G A. Lorino- has heen
superintendent, representing the South
ern Pacific well. Mr. M. Buley has
had charge of the work itself, a very
efficient builder, who has looked after
the details carefully in the interest of a
solid and lasting structure. The elect
ric lighting, a fine job, giving the de-
ioc a splendid lighting service, has been
oue by the Western Electric Co. under
Mr. Jas. Irvine, a capable young man.
The surroundings have not been .-nm.
pleted and it will be some time before
the yard as planned is in working order.
The hotel is to be moved and the erround
cleared. Uutil then it is said there will
not be trackage for the Corvallis and
Eastern trains. But as comoleted the
depot will be a union one in fact, with
the best yard in the vallev south of
rortiand.
The new clock: onnosite the ticket
office was put in by Mr. i . M. French,
a $110 affair, a sure time keeper, car
rying Mr. French's name.
The dedication services occurred thiB
afternoon, about as follows:

dealing with Albany merchants. The
special committee Messrs. Dasent and
Young; had met the delegation at Ore
gon City and tagged eyery person with
a silver decorated key, running through
a hub, representing Albany as the rail
road center, extending the key of the

CURE BY CUTICURA
AT EITY MISSION
Young Woman Found in Awful Con
dition with Scabies Body a Mass
of Sores from Scratching Tried
Many Remedies for Seven Weeks
Result Was Discouraging, But
ITCHING TORTURES
YIELDED TO CUTICURA
""While I was doing missionary work
in the lower portion of several cities I
found it necessary to know a little of
the efllencv of a few medicines and
after a while I found that a little knowl
edge of Cutloura was about all I needed.
One of the very bad cases I had to deal
with was that of a young woman who
had come to us
not only broken in
spirit but in a
most awful condition
physically. Our doctor examined her
and told us that she had scabies (tha
itch), incipient paresis, rheumatism,
etc., brought on from exposure and the
effects of nor ragged-edged life. Her
poor body was a mass of sores from
scratching and she was not able to
retain solid food. We tried many things,
a good tonio was prescribed and baths
with a rubbing of lard and sulphur. We
worked hard for seven weeks and you
can imagine how discouraged we were
when, after all that time, we could sea
so little improvement. One day I hap
pened to see a Cutioura advertisement
telling how a little baby had been
cured of a bad case of skin eruption,
and although I had but ninety-seven
cents with me, I bought a cake of CutU
cura Soap and a bottle of Cuticura
Resolvent. When I reached home I
was like a child with a new toy, and wo
bathed our patient well and gave her a
full dose of the Resolvent. She slept
that night better than she had since
she had been with us and the next day
I located the price of a box of Cuticura
Ointment. I am not exaggerating
when I say that in exactly five weeks
this young woman was able to look for
a position, being strong enough to work
and full of ambition. In another
month she left the home, and now has
a good position in a nice family where
she is respected and is strong and well.
