Return OF President Larrabec
OF the Fairhaven Land
Company
He is Interviewed BY the
Herald, and the esult is
Given Below
"This is Great Country and
1t Will Develop Many
Great Towns"

President c. Y. Larrabee, OF the
Fairhaycn Land company, returned
TO the city yesterday afternoon, after
an absence in the East Of nearly two
months. Mr.. Larrabcc visited st.
Paul, New York, Boston and other
Eastern points, and spent a few days
In Portland on his way home. He was
seen last night at the Hotel Fairhayen
by a HERALD reporter for short
time.
Mr.. Larrabcc is in good health and
spirits and hi, Eastern trip was very
enjoyable one.
"A great many rumors have been
abroad, % said the reporter, concern
ing the object Of your Eastern trip,
and anything you have 10 say will be
of interest 10 the public"
~ hayc nothing Of especial interest
TO impart,' he said; 81 am not a talk
ing man, and so / will not be expected
to say much
Mr.. Larrabcc was told OF the re-
ported sale Of his interests i'm Fair
haven 10 the Great Northern people,
and hc said there were no new deyel-
Opmcnts IN any way affecting this city
which he was at liberty TO disclose.
The Falrhaycn and Southern
transfer said he, "has been
completed, and the road is now
being operated by the Great Northern.
As 10 the pass through the
Cascades, which the Great Northern
will select, ! am at liberty to say
nothing, at the present time. and as
10 the actual ocean terminus, that IS
another topic on which | must also be
silent. Railroad people first decide
and then act.

the city since ! left, said Mr.. Lara
bee, notably, the street railway and
the McKcchnic block. These are
evidences Of progress aud the city is
growing steadily and substantially
and fast enough. This is great
country and will have great Cities
In reply 10 au inquiry as TO the
financial condition at the East, he
said: Money is even tighter than IL
was ninety or even sixty days ago.
The immense drain OF gold out OF the
country and the unsettled condition
.Of the money market. generally, have
made capital timid.'
There is plenty OF money yet in
the country, however, but it. is lying
idle, people who have IT, being afraid
to put IL into circulation. A great
deal Of money has been required 10

ncwal Of business shortly after the
beginning Of the year. IL Is usually
the case after depression and 10 will

IL Is almost certain that there will

"Ihcn there are no new develop
mcnts as 10 Fairhaycn,' finally asked
the reporter, and Mr.. Larrabcc said,

scribe good night.

HIS WIFE IN TIGHTS
A Rich Buffalo Doctors Spouse Takes
to the Stage


BUFFALO, n. Y, Aug. l3-Society
circles are all agog over the announce
ment that Mrs Emma Cronyn, wife Of
DR.. John Cronyn, a prominent ply
sician of this city, had joined the
Carleton Opera company as chorus
singer, and that she appeared on the
stage in Washington last night as a
student in "AmeriUa," dressed in
tights. Mrs. CrOnyn is a very hand
some blonde, and is Of almost perfect
physical proportions. Her husband
enjoys a large practice, and she had
almost everything that could be de-
sired. She became infatuated with
the stage, and when the Carleton
Opera company was in this city she
applied for position in the company.
She was told that she must start at
the bottom in the chorus, but this did
not deter her, and on Sunday she left
with the company for Washington.
DR.. Cronyn is much distressed over
his wife's conduct. His Office was
closed today and the doctor could not
be found

Another Story of the Chicago Fire.

tttCugc 4ftOUNc-
A Chicago gentleman says he is the
owner of the only true story Of the
origin of the great fire. Here it is with
a patent:
"A few days after the fire had a
woman working for me who had lived
in the vicinity of Mrs. O'Leary's. The
woman had better luck than Mrs.
O'Leary, in that she was not burned
out.
''She told me that family living in
the back part of the O'Leary home were
giving a party in honor of young lady
who had Just arrived from Ireland.
When refreshments were served 1t was
discovered that there was no milk in
the house. A young man present said
that was easy enough to supply; that
Mrs. O'Leary had a cow in the barn.
He volunteered to milk the cow if any
of the young ladies present would hold
a light. One of the ladies agreed to
90 with the young man.
"They went to the barn and placed
the lamp on the floor near the cow.
The young man proceeded to his work,
when the cow kicked and the lamp was
knocked over. The blaze ignited the
hay ana the fire started.
Mrs. O'Leary was in bed at the time,
and that is why she always denied the
story. She did not know anything
about the cow yarn until several days
after the fire, and she didn't believe the
story and denied the truth of it because
her name was connected with the milk
ing incident. She was not in it, but
| her cow was"

HOME HINTS.

The home is to society what the heart is to the
body-the vital motive power.
When the father is vigorous, the mother
cheerful, and children happy, it is heaven on
earth.
When disease stalks in and fells the father:
prostrates the mother, or seizes the children all
becomes desolation.
To make the home happy, keep the health Sc,
cure. Poverty may come, but it can be endured
if the health remains.
No health was ever maintained without as
sistance. Health. like the body, must be sup
ported But do not make a mistake and do 1t
fooisbly.
The best way to sustain health is to assist it,
to stimulate it. The best way to healthlly
stimulate 1t Is by the use OF pure, nadulterated
medicinal whiskey. Doctors have declared
this scientists have confirmed 1t. and both have
insisted that Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is the
only strictly medicinal one in the market. In.
deed, it has become as it deserves, household
necessity. t5l

his arm in a sling, noticed that he

taking in the sights, and instead OF con-
