Tlio great car nival week nt (one Island is a thing of tlio past nnd tlic season of that fa- nous plonsuro resort Is practically end ed. Tlio cnrnlvnl was a happy thought of tlio concessionaries of tho various nmusomont places of Conoy Island and was originally suggested as an attempt to mnko up for the losses caused by the unfavorable weather during tho past summon It wns n rather risky under taking, as It involved a largo outlay of money with a possibility of losing everything should tho weather provo unfnvorablo or should tho plan fall to nppoal to tho public. Probably $300, 000 were spent in tho preparations tv tho carnival. The first day b'rought nn enormous crowd to tho Island and tho nttendnnco increased steadily from night to night. Tho success of tho carnival wns little short of phenome nal. Thousands of visitors from tho cities of tho state wcro there. Even n thousand policemen would not hnvo been nblo to control tho masses had they displayed any tendency to bo un ruly and boisterous. Fortunately that wns not tho case, A hotter naturcd find better bohaved crowd than that nt Coney Island during tho carnival week could not bo found nnywhero. Every body seemed to bo Imbued with tho cnrnlvnl spirit. Perfect etrnngcrs tick led each other with miniaturo feather dusters and threw confetti nt each other, but nobody seemed to resent theso liberties. Tho victoms rovongod them selves by returning tho compl.Imcnt in kind. Of courso thoro woro a few brnwls nnd onsos of drunkenness, but that wnH to be expected. At nil events there wns not enough of that to mar tho pleasuro of tho crowds. strcot was deserted nearly all day. Tlio poll co reserves had to bo called upon to provent tho crowd from mobbing tho "Barbnin Man." It is expected that tho merchants on tho other sldo will send out a man who will givo awny 5 bills. By a olovor adaptation of tho wire less tologrnphy princlplo Mojor Wil liam It. Wetmore of Allenhurt, N. J., a millionaire and one of tho oldest mem bers of tho New York Yacht club, is nblo to keep bimsolf posted on stock quotations and ticker nows whiio rid ing nround in tho country on his auto mobile. IIo nnd Stntion Master Cor net, of Allonhurst, havo invented a transmitter nnd receiver, by which Mnjor Wctmoro can learn of tho fluc tuations of tho mnrkol at any time dur ing tho day. Tho transmitter is plac ed nt tho railroad station nnd messages for tho major aro flashed from it as soon as thoy aro received, Two rough pieces of board, with copper wire strung across them, so that tho affair looks llko a clumsily shaped acollan harp, form tho apparatus used by tho stntion master to send tho quotations. In tho nutomobllo which Mnjor Wetmore rides is n receiver that bears a closo ro scmblnnco to a tolophono rccolvor, whiio tho instrument to catch tho wireless mes nages is attached undorncnth tho auto mobile Tho invention is said to bo porfectly satisfactory nnd is nttrncting considerable attention among brokers and speculators. Tho fnto of "Old Ironsides," ns tho old nntlquntod frigato "Constitution'1' hns boon called, still hangs in tho bal nnce. About a weok ngo tho nows wns received from Boston that tho old ship wns filling with wntor nnd was doomod 1o speedy decay. This bit of nows sug gested to Mr. James Matthows, n Brooklyn morchnnt, tho ldoa to mako nn effort of saving tho historic ship from tho junk pile nnd, nt tho same time, do something that would carry his famo far beyond tho limits of Greater New York. IIo sent a tolcgrnm to tho secretary of tho nnvy, asking him to consider nn offer to buy tho Constitu tion through n fund to bo rnlsod by Brooklyn school chlldron. It was tho idea of Mr. Mntthews, to purchaso tho vcnornblo warship, bring it to Brook lyn nnd presorvo ,lt in somo Btiltnble plneo for futuro generations, Tho mat ter has not yot been decided, so far ns tho nnvy department is concornod, but it is doubtful that Mr. Matthews will succeed lit carrying out his plan. In the first placo the pntrlotlo societies of Boston, which heretofore had paid nn particular attention to tho condi tion of tho old frigate, suddenly hnvo become Interested In it nnd intond to piny the dog lit the manger. But, oven if tho people of Boston should not raise any objection to tho romovnl of the Constitution, thoro Is llttlo pros pect that tho ship will ever be brought to New York, Tho ship is in such a bad condition that It would be impoa slblo to tow it to this elty. It would founder before It had been towed a black. Tho stntctnont thnt Charles F. Mur phy, tho lendor of Tammany, that Tam many Hall favored munlolpal owner ship was really qulto superfluous. There is nothing now in that. Evorybody knows that Tammany Hnll is in favor of any kind of ownorshlp, provided it is tho ownor, Somo foolish persons linvo nsked, why Tnmmany Ilnll has novcr mado nn nttorapt to bring about municipal ownership. How absurd! Does not Tammany Ilnll own tho town! Is thoro anything in Greater Now York thnt Tnmmnny docs not own or controlf From the lowest gambling house, barrel hougo nnd don of iniquity to tho street railway and other mo nopolies, overything is controlled by Tammany Hall. Why should tho Braves oxert thomselves to bring nbout a con dition which already exists! Tho only dlfferonco it would mnko is that now Tnmmnny is robbing tho reoplo indl roctly, wlillo under municipal ownor shlp it would do so directly. Tho flnnl rosult would remain unchnnged. An amusing war is being waged just now in Brooklyn. For n long time there bus Ihwii considerable rivalry be tween the merchants nnd shopkeepers oil the north nnd thoo on the south sldo of Fulton street. For several months the merchants on tho north sldo have had placards, reading, "This is the Bargain Side " displayed in their windows. The merchant oa the south sldo hit upon an Ingenious plan to coun teract this elalm f their rivals. They advertised that every morning between 0 and 10 a. m. tho "Bargain Man" would walk up and down on tho "Bar gain Side of Fulton Street," meaulug in this caso tho south side. He would carry a pocketful of sllvor dollars nud overy quarter of an hour or half hour he would turn around sharply and pro sent a dollar to the first person ho finds behind him, provided that porson is not a boy, Tho effect of that an nouncement was ntagloal. Thousands of people thronged tho south sldo of tho street, whiio the north side of the Tho death on tho high sen of tho fomnlo gorilla whlclt wns to bo placed in tho menngerlo of tho Bronx Zoo, Is a sovcro loss to New York. Had tho animal survived tho violent attack of sou slokness and, pcrhnps, homesickness which cnusod its donth, Now York would havo had the distinction of being tho only olty in the world owning a full grown gorilla. Theso monkoys aro extremely raro and all provlous at tempts to ncollmnte them in northorn latitudes havo failed, Soveral speci mens woro brought to Kuropo, but did not live very nni. The femnlo corll. 1 w-hleh had been Intended for tho, Bronx Park collection, was Insured for $00. It will bo stuffed nnd exhibited in that form. Notwithstanding tho omortlon of CommiMloHer MeAdoo to tho contrary, the number of crimes of every kind seewa to be on the increase in New York Kvery day crimes against the person and against praporty are ro- iwrted In appalllug numbers, but only once in n great whiio, and then only neeiuentnlly, the perpetrators of the orlmes are Apprehended by tho police. It is true, tho pollco authorities aro never at a Ums to And somo oxcuso for their inability of discovering orlml nuls, but the fnet romalns that tho thieves, murderers and other orlmlnnls are continuing their activity and that the public safety is becoming more seriously threatened overy week. There is mighty llttlo oonsolatlon in tho ox- plauation that there is a good onino for the inefflalency of tho Metropolitan po- iieo ucpartment, Railroad Extension. A railroad must bo a paying propo sition and must reach a dcslrablo coun try. Necessities nro sufficient popula tion sufficient freightage. Also good itcrminus nnd dcslrablo starting point. Lino across stnto fcasablo. Start from Boise, Ida., tcrminnto at Astoria; good proposition. Wo need n line to Coos Bny, Astoria, Tillnmook and Ynqulna from Contrnl Oregon. Thoro is exten sion being mado lo Coos Bay nnd one nlrondy to Yaqulnn from tho Southern Pacific lines in tho valley, Ono nlso being survoyod to Tillamook. These lines through nro all branch lines hav ing ono idea in view, and that is to feed tho Southern Pacific. Natural ter minus Portland. Wo need moro than ono nionna of shipping. Valley hns sufllcicnt conncotiona with Portland Wo only need to improvo Willamette river to uso our present lines. But thoro nro no monns of ronchlng inland empire, nnd no means of getting goods to market except through Portland nnd Columbln. By extending lino across stnto from state from Boise, Ida., we can reach three of our best harbors, Astorln, Tillnmook and Ynqulna. Fcasablo and Practical Route. Fifty-four miles Astoria to Tilln mook city; 30 miles Tillamook to Shor- idan; 11 miles Sheridan to Dallas; 10 miles Dallas to Indopcndcnco; 10 miles Independence to Albnny; 45 miles Al bany to Garrison; 80 miles Garrison to Prlnovlllo; 110 miles Prinovlllo to Burns; 120 miles Burns to Ontario; 40 miles Ontario to Bolso City. This mnkos about COO mllos of road. It would pay becnuso it would reach tho ccntor of nil that territory which now has no railroad connections. It would mnko a direct connection from tho enst to tho valley. It would open up thrco splendid harbors on tho const. It would mnko a cheaper outlet and inlot for Idnho nnd stntcs in tho surrounding territory. It would givo onstorn Oregon connections with Port land nnd all valley towns. It would hnndlo big tonnngo to Wlilamotto val- loy deposited at Astoria, Newport and Tillnmook nnd would mnko a chenper nnd bettor routo for Orogon products to tho Orient. Tho Population. Thoro wouldi bo 140,000 pcoplo served uy mis itno or roau. it would pass through tho counties and bo fed from tho following ceunties: Crook, Clnt sop, Harney, Linn, Mnlheur, Folk, Till amook, Yamhill, Wbollcr, Grant, Lake and Klamath in Oregon, nnd Canyon nnd Ada counties in Idaho, Crook, Tillamook, narncy, Curry, Lake, Whcclor) and Grant now hnvo no railroads. Malheur has but 12 miles; Klamath but 18 miles. Thrco hundrod nnd sovonty thousand peoplo nro now served with 10S0 miles of rond bed or 210.33 peoplo to the mile. Tako from this 100,000, Portland's population nnd tho percentage is re duced to 100,3 porsons to the mile, Tho proposed lino would sorvo 110,000 peo plo or nbout SS0 persons to the mile.

Few Pcoplo Know How Useful It is in Proserving Hoalth and Beauty. Nearly everybody knows thnt char coal is tho safest and most efficient disinfectant nnd purifier in nature, but few renllzo its vnluo when taken Into the human systom for tho samo cleans ing purpose. Charcoal is a remedy that tho more you tako of it tho bettor; it is not a drug at all, but simply absorbs tho gases and Impurities always present in tho stomnch nnd intestines nnd car ries thorn out of tho system. Charcoal sweetens tho bronth after smoking, drinking or after eating onions or odorous vegetables. Charcoal effectually clears nnd im proves tho comploxlon, it wbitons tho teeth and further nets ns a natural and eminently snfo cnthnrtlc. It absorbs tho injurious gases which collect in tho stomach nnd bowels; it dislnfocts the mouth nnd throat from tho poison of catarrh. All druggists sell obnrcoal in ono tprm or another, but probably tho best charcoal nnd tho most for tho monoy is Stuart's Chnroonl Lozonges; thoy aro composed of tho finest pow dered willnw charcoal, nnd othor harm less antiseptics In tablet form or rather in tho form of large, pleasant tasting lozongoa, tho ohareoal being mixed with honey. Tho daily uso of these lozenges will toll in a much improved condition of tho general health, better complexion, sweotor breath and purer blood, and tho boauty of It is, that no possible harm oan result from their continued use, but on the contrary, great benefit, A Buffalo physician speaking of tho benefits of eharcoal, saysi "I advise Stuort's Chareoal Loienget to all patients suffering front gas in tho stomach and bowels, and to clear the eemplexion and purify the breath, mouth and throat; I also believe the liver is greatly benefited by the dally use of tli em; they cost but twenfcv- five cents a box at drug stores, and although in some senee a patent prep aration, yet I believe I get more ami bettor charcoal In Stuart's Chnraaal 800,000 , Looenges than In any of the ordinary .479.S36 ahnrcoal tablets." 900,000 HARDWARE STOVES TINWARE NIOKLE PLATED GOODS GRANITE WARE CARPENTER'S TOOLS BUILDER'S HARDWARE BUGGIES, WAGONS 485.M0 1,364,003 52S.S07 1,024,(140 100,000 4.000.000 should it Nature . t tinc times when the system u iirt, the nerv ous tone low and a feeling u( de pression or languor cxiti Ait ex perience of over so year warrants the statement that no medicine gies such prompt relict as Beecham's Pills Sold Everywhere, In boxes lOo. and .
