Health officer Estes resumed his

or the steamer Oregon yesterday and
received word from the .. r. & n
Co., that a steamer would leave last
evening and get here about 4:30 this
morning. To this steamer part oI
the crew and all the steerage passen
gers will be transferred and held il
quarantine; the cabin passengers and
that part of the crew, waters. etc.
who had had no access to the steer
age, will be allowed to remain on the
vessel and with it proceed to Portland
to-day.
The quarantine rules have been en-
forced, every one on board from the
captain down has had to be either
vsccinated or show q scar prov.

vaccinated, and. certainly, should fur.
ther symtoms of the disease appear

Lottery Gambling.

Of all follies, that Of pstronizing g
Louisiana lottery is the most foolish.
The newspapers tell who draws the
prize but say nothing of the hundred
thousand who paid but did not draw.
A few young men in an eastern towI
who had been buying tickets in that
concern for a year or so tried an ex-
pertinent which cost nothing and ST
the same time would seem as salts
factory as though they bought the
tickets. They imagined they bought
largely and had the number of the
tickets marked and whenever O draw
ing took place they procured the
published lists. In this way they
found that for every thousand dollars
they paid out they rarely ever got
back even five hundred. If any reader
buys such tickets let him try the
same eyperiment.-CGpttcl Journal.

How Men Dis.

If We know all the methods of ap.
proach adopted by an enemy We are
the better enabled to ward off the
danger and pospone the moment when
surrender becomes inevitable. In
many instances the inherent strength
of the body suffices to enable it to op-
pose the tendency toward death.
Many however have lost these forces
to such an extent that there is little
or no help. In other cases little
aid to the weakened Lungs will make
all the difference between sudden
death and many years of useful life.
Upon the first symptoms of Cough,
Gold or any trouble of the Throat or
Lungs, give that old and wc,lknown
remedy-Boschee's German Syrup. a
carful trial. It will prove what
thousands say of it to be, the "bene.
factor of any home"
