letters per dny for every day in. 'he
month.
"Thrit is tho record so far for
Medford," said Mr. Conrad, "and it
also beats tho Oregon record for
cities nnvwhero near our size. Most
of tho commercial club secretaries
consider ten letters of inquiry a day

the housetops. We have been close
io the 30 mark for a yen'r now, but
tho February prist was the biggest

VICTORIA, B. C, March 4. As
a measure to conciliate the women
of British Columbia who seek the
franchise, but to whom it will be de
nied by the present provincial gov
ernment, a bill has been presented
to aid in tho bringing to tho prov
ince from Great Britain of enough
domestic servants to meet what ts
todny conceded to be a pressing de
mand. Tho plan is a return to tho sys
tem in voguo in tho '60s, when the
government advanced monoys to be
returned in installments, with inter
est. It failed then because the men
of the province met tho trains and
took the -women homo with them as
wives, repaying tho loans out of
band.
It is believed now that tho demnrd
for wives is not so pressing and tho
young -women imported as servants
may remain at their work. So the
government will build for tho Salva
tion Army at Vancouver a receiving
home and will ndvanco $20,000 to bo
used in paying the passage of girls
peeking employment.

TOO MUCH CANDY IS
THE CAUSE OF DEATH
PnOENlX. Ariz., March 4. If
the diagnosis made by Dr. Bacon of j
Tombstone is correct, a case of pel
lagra here today was brought on by
the consumption of too much candy.
The victim of the disease, which
Dr. Bacon states is well advanced, is
tho daughter of Pedro Michaeleun,
an interpreter in, tho district court
at Tombstone.
It is known that tho girl had an
insatiable appetite for candy and
that she ate quantities of sweet
meats of tho cheaper kinds which
contained glucose, a corn product.
ENTOMOLOGIST URGED BY
ELLIS FOR PORTLAND
Demands of Trainmen Will Be Con
sldered Next Week Every Road
-West Of Mississippi to Be Tied Up
SAN FRANCISCO. March 4. It
-was learned today that tho Oakland
and the Sacramento lodges of the
Southern Pacific firemen haro voted
to strike should the trainmen's de
mands at the conference next week
at Chicago be refused by the rail
road officials.
A secret ballot of all the lodges of
the Brotherhood of Firemen and En
gineers has Just been completed. O.
W. Karn, acting as tho coast repre
sentative, Is en route to Chicago to
day to band the result of the ballot
'lag to Grand Chief W. Carter of the
IBrotberbood.
The result of tho vote at Oakland
and Sacramento, however, does not
mean that tho men will strike In real
ity, as other lodges might not have
arrived at the same decision. The
-Southern Pacific employes number
2800 members of the organization,
and only a small portion of them
belong to tho two lodges which voted
to strike.
The result of the conference at
Chicago will affect 20,000 members
of the Brotherhood and Involve all
tho railroads west of tho Mississippi
river should a strike be called.

The General Electric

toast by radiant heat die correct way. The center of the bread
becomes heated before the outside is browned over, thus allowing
the necessary chemical changes to take place, without which toast
is soggy in the middle and hard on the outside.
The General Electric Radiant Toaster lightens breakfast tasks and
quickly pays for itself by saving time and bread. Come and sec a
demonstration of this electrical convenience.
