Uutobelder vat present and asked to have the new grade made otnoial on Wei State street ai lome ohauget bad been made from the ori ginal official grade established, to lea se n the cost and alio to improve tbe appearance of tbe street. The request will be complied with. Mr. Uatobelder also stated that be bad aarveyed bis property on l'hli teentb screet and that tbe street was partly on his pioperty. That be bad attempted to fence it up, but was stopped by tbe marshal, and wanted tbe city to make a survey to establish bis rights. Mr. Batobelder stated that be was positive that be was right in the matter aud wanted all tbe land that belonged to him. Tbe matter was referred to tbe street committee. Propositions from Portland parties to pat in an electric tire alarm sys tem, to be worked from tbe central exchange of the Home Telephone Co., at a oost of flM to $000, were plaoed on file for future reference. A letter from Mr. Spear to sell tbe city a gravel pit on bis property east of tbe city was received. Mr. Spear stated that he would sell tbe right to take gravel off two sores of ground for twenty years for $700, and take two lots owned by the city as part pay. He said the oiler would be withdrawn May 5. As the city is out of money Mr. Spear ottered to take a note for $500, due in one year, with iuterent. Ihe communication was placed on file tor reference. Urdinauoe No. 154, re-establishing tbe grade on Pine street, was passed. Coanoilman Hersbuer asked for in formation as to why it was necessary to do so much surveying on Pine street and was answered by Mr Hall Lewis that it was on account of changes which had been made and also on account of grade stakes being destroyed. Also that Ihe street was half a mile long, requiring a good deal of work. A. W. Outbank was present and said tbas there was considerable dissatis faction at tbe expense ot tbe work on Pine street, and might have tbe etfeot of stopping work of tbat kind In the futuie. He was iutormed tbat tbe opposition of a few property owners on tbe street to the work being done made a great deal of woik aecessiry in order to collect the assessment, which could have been avoided had all agreed to the work and bad it done privately, as was done on some of tbe other streets. A petition was reoeived from resi dents on Lena street to have tbe street widened to its full width op posite the I inutile noporty, tbe street being only 27 feet wide at tbat point. Tbe matter was refer led to the street oommittee. A petition was received to grade Stranaban avenue to the city limits, and a motion to that effect was car ried and an "rdinuuce drawn to cover tbe same. J. J. I uokey asked permission to build an addition to bis residence, wbich is iu tbe (Ire limits. Ihe mat ter was referred to tbe committee on Ore and water.

Attentiou is hereby called to the tact tbat a Humane Society has re cently been established in uur city. Its puipose is to see that state laws aie enforced in all cases of cruelty to children and dumb animals, aud any and all persons witne-siug undue pun ishtnent and cruelly may leport the same to tbe society and measuies will be taken to restrain thoughtless aud inbumau people from such practices That there is too much ut thh crm Ity in our n:idst in a oiyliw slmrno to oi r city, and a souioe cf nu learnt and iudignmit lceln:g Mii.org cur Utter dipured people. As run i f n:r tfrmit wo lorn writf.'- t)Hs expres-el it, "e cannot mil nur ekes liuluid while we mi onlmiy i'ins the tut feritij; of evou t tie lowliest crc'ituiM " 1 be Uuuvuie Society has no soiiiiil functions or meetings. The oHlceia and directors are cnlU-d upon to meet ence a mouth for the purpose of tiau sacting the Lusiuess of the K-cibty. There aie no salaries attached to any ot the offices and the Hood River branch cf the sooia'y was established partially as a tesult ot the many com plaints by our oilizem of revolting Hud disgraceful cruelly in out midst. Tim soci-'ly makes no law, but as stated nlioe its business is to eee tbat our hlala laws governing tbe treatment of children and aniuinls are eufurced, aud our f.eop!e are kindly asked to give their support to this aocietv by baring their names euiclled as uietuheia r.f said society and p-y ing their hiiuiiiiI dues of one dollar.

It Is heartily Imped that nnr oitlzaus wili follow up their picas for a hitmaue society by ootniug forward at oucb with the support of their names aud money, as tbe society will be badly hampered in tbeii efforts without funds foi tbe expeuses of tbe tooiety. One of the Directors. The orris & Rowe Circus. To parade or not to parade was a qaeition that the IU o r ns matnttta pondered over with much deliberation during tbe meeting of the advisory and executive committees of tbe big amusement combine. For the pant three years tbe Barnuru & Bailey cii- cob ba. not given a parade, but is that show bas become a possession of tbe Ringling Bros , tbe questlou of change of polioy ws brought op. For a time it looked as though the ciroua parade would be a thing of tbe past, but Norris & Rowe held out te naciously for the i-treet pagent, and won out in both committees, and as a result all of tbe three big circuses wlll cootinoe tbe parades, bot will put tbetn on niocb more elaborately than heretofore. By tbe arrangemeot of territory tbe liarnum k Bailey circus will be ieu in tbe New Koglaud states; the King ling broe. In tbe middle west and southern states aod Ureatei Norris t Rowe circus, museum, hippodromes and 4ongreaa of nations will be seen in all tbe cities west of tbe Rookies, fcy this arrangement the territory wlU be equally divided among tbe big ihows. The liarnum k Bailey oircos opened tbeir season in New York; tbe Ringling Bros, in Cbioago aud tbe Creator Norris k Kowe olicos io San Francisco, where it exhibited for thirty days to 279,873 paid admis sions, whiob is more people than ever before attended a circus, in tbat per iod, in tbe history of tbe west. The performers whom they engaged for tbis season's tour are mostly of European reputation. Tbe show bas been enlarged to suob an extent tbat it now oompaies favorably with the two other big circuses in tbe combine. Ihe press of San Francisco wereonan Imous in proclaiming tbe Norila k Rowe circus to be tbe best ever seen in tbat city. Tbe poblio evidently concurred in this opinion, for tbey attended tbe performance, and tbeir applause was sincere and prolonged. The big speolal feature of tbe Norris 4 Rowe cirous tbis season is tbe Con gress of Nations, a wondertol speotsc ular productiou Iu wbicb leprecenta tive athletes from all qnarters ot tbe globe, decked out in tbe vari colored costumes of their native lands appear. Tbe Noiris k Rowe oircos will be tbe only big show to visit tbe west tbis year. Tbey will exhibit in The Dalles, Wednesday, May 13, matinee only. Card of Thanks.

Sbipberd, of tbe Mineral Springs Hotel Co., at Carson, Wash., for tbe Hawkeyesto bold tbeir annual picnio this summer at Ship herd's springs. Tbe invitation was brought by Harry S. Dano, wbo was at tbe springs last week, aud Mr. Shipberd told him that all meals, bot mineral batb, oamping grounds and tbe coir tesies of the plaoe would be famished free for two days to the members of the association. The Sbipberd broth ers are bcth Uawkeyes and are, there fore, much interested in tbe associa tion. The kind invitation will tie taken under advisement and will no doubt be aocepted if it is found tbe mem bers can be away from borne for two days, or it it can be arranged to limit the picnio to one day, provided trans portation facilities can be seoured go ing early in the morning and return ing tbe same evening. Places Ban on "Merry Widows." Up in tbis pait of the country the people, particularly tbe women, seem to desire hats as' large as possible," said Charles W. Hastings, of Mexioo City, at tbe Hotel Portland recently. "Of course I refer to tbe merry wi dow hat. Also tbe Scanus bonnet. Big bats, sombreros, have been all tbe go in Mexioo tor years and always will be popular, I guess. But tbe sombiero Is doomed in tbe state of Jalisoo, Mexico. Ihe legislature has declared against it. Ihe legislators have found that the picturesque som brero is a nuisance rind tbat tbe Mex ican -vbo wears it must have a lioense. Besides be must have a number on tbe bat. A'itbuut tbis the wearer Is subjeot to arrest and a fine. Tbe objeot of the fine Istooure tbe peon's taste for tbis style of t p cover, wblob corded with gilt and silver is some times six feet or more across tbe brim, and so expensive that a poor Mexican often works a whole year in order to earn tbe price of one. Ihe longing for a sombrero among tbe Mexicans bas the desire for a merry widow or a Panama among tbe people up here trimmed to a finish. The sombrero is one of tbe attractions of Mexioo. To attempt to drive It out of Jalisoo by liceutiug it and fixing a number (.late like a gasoline devil wagon wili be retented by tbe tour 1st a. But the tourist, by tbe way, is uot running the country." IT SAVED MY LIFE WRITES ECZEMA PATIENT Bed-ridden Sufferer Completely Cured by Use of D. P. D.

Mrs. E Hegg, 1P50 West Madison street, under date of DecemtierD, 1907, writes as follows: "I suffered three years with Weeping Eczema.

No thing would stop the awful itch and burning. "When I began this treatment peo ple were afraid of me I looked so terri ble. My husband was the only one who would lake care of me. D.

A new system of dry farming lai in advanoe ot tbe famous Campbell system of dry farming, and wbicb can he used tor even drier larinmg man tbe famous system, ia said to bave been practically demonstrated In tbe San Simon Valley, according to Jadge McDonald, wbo, a short time ago, made a trip over in that fertile valley. Tbe new system, be tbioks, gives promise to do as much in tbe way of making the desert bio som witb rosea as tbe renowned Campbell system baa done so far. lie was given to under stand tbat it bad been tried by a prominent ranchman oer in tbe val le? witb surprising success and wbile be bas never seen any autual demon stration of tbe method it seems so en tirely logical tbat be himself baa great faith in it and recommends it to tbe farmers In tne Sulphur Springs Valley, where be is confident that it will abow as good reealta as in tbe neighboring valley where tbe new sys tem is sals to bate been dlsoovered. LTbe chief difference, says tbe judge, itween tbe new system and tbe Campbell system ia in the direction rrom which tbe moisture comes to nourish tbe roots ot tbe growing plank Tbe well known Campbell sys tem by tbe mesne ot aarMoe cultiva tion brings op tbe moisture from tbe lower earth, while tbe new system brings it from above tbe roots. Tbe demonstration ia best made, be said, In growing a crop ot corn- Tbe coin ia planted in rows the usual distance apart, and between tbe rowa of corn la set oat a low In which Is planted alternately potato and an onion. As oan readily be aeen the onions make the potatoea eyes water aod tbis irrigates tbe corn. Ex. Young Men's Clothe Ederheimer. Stein 5c Co. Makers NO need to tell you this is a stylish suit.
