River Problems.

Should the rank of a river be meas
ured by its length or by its average
volume of water2 is question on which
geographers have apparently failed to
agree. On the first named principle
the Mississippi would be only the chief
northern tributary of the Missouri. On
the second, the Mississippi and Missouri
combined would be mere brooks, com
pared with the giant streams of the
American tropics. Near their junction
with the Amazon, both the Rio Negro
and the Toncantins are at least three
times broader and deeper than the
Mississippi at New Orleans. Philadel-

Up in Harlem there lives a boy of ten
years who has a positive genius for com
bining his possibilities of getting fun
out of life. His parents are indulgent,
and he has about every plaything that
a youngster Of his age could wish for,
but none of these things, not even his
nickel plated safety bicycle has the
honor of his sole attention.
If he rides the bicycle he must have
his Flobert rifle slung across his back
and yell like an Indian, or he must
have his express wagon hitched on be-
hind loaded up with small toys and his
baby sisters. If he Skins around on
Lenox avenue with his roller skates he
must either fly kite or roll his hoop,
and if he drives out behind his team OF
goats he must have half dozen picture

sorrows, to lift up our nation on that

oppression, and who by the strength OF

and in the world, that through dark

Call for the Worlds Fair Commission
Pr'S Meeting,

The investigation made by me at
Olympia developed the fact that there
was no emergency clause to the Wash
ington Worlds Fair law, and hence the
same had not gone into effect at the
time the commission met and attempted
to organize, and hence there is no or
ganization, and could not be until after
June 9th. Governor Ferry and Attor-
ney General Jones both take that view
and there is no doubt whatever but that
the commission must meet and organize
anew.
therefore give notice that meeting
of the commission is called to be held
at Olympia, August 2Ist, 81, at 10
O'Clock, for the purpose of electing a
president, ice-president, secretary,
treasurer, executive committee Of nine
executive commissioner, and to make
rules and regulations for the govern
ment of the commission and executive
COMMITTEES, and to do all other acts nee
essary to perfect the proper organiza-
| ton of said commission.
Section 3 Of the act provides for the
payment OF the expenses of the commits
sioners.
1t is important that every commission
er attend this meeting, as grave compli-
cations have resulted from the hastv
action of the commissioners.

PORTLAND, Aug. 10.-SundaY after

bathers were on the beach at CIatsop,

safest on the entire beach. To the
south of it was known to exist a treacher-
Gus hole, against which the bathers had
been warned. A few moments before
the cry was heard T. W. Dunn and wife
and Mrs. Jennie NJ Parker, who had

ENCOURAGE THE SONS or VETERANS.

ENCOURAGE THE SONS or VETERANS.
ii is the true policy for comrades and Posts
everywhere TO earnestly encourage the Sons
Of Veterans. We can have no better allies
and friends than our own sons, and the best
way to make their help effective is by form
ing them into Camps of Sons of Veterans
The stronger the Order is made the better
il viii be for the Grand Army OF the Re
public. They take nothing from US; they
load us with no responsibility, while they
can be Of the greatest possible assistance TO
us. An they ask Of us is interest in their
work and friendly encouragement. Every
comrade can be Of the greatest assistance in
building up the Order 10y simply showing
his warm approval of il and desire for its
growth. To do this is a patriotic duty, as
well rs one dictated by more selfish con-
siderations The Order is Of immense value
10 the country. 1T has an everyday impor-
lance in its firm assertion Of correct, patri-
otto principles, which must be continually
asserted in order 10 impress them upon this
rapidly developing Nation, which every
year receives millions OF foreigners, who
have 10 conception our National ideas and
what it has cost 10 maintain them. In time
ofwar The Sons Of Veterans would be of ines
Unable importance. They would present
an immensely powerful organization, ready
iorany military purpose Of the Government
and 10 take the first shock Of the struggle
until the Nation could prepare itself for
war. The Order could also furnish n large
number Of fairly-trained officers, full Of
enthusiasm, imbued with soldierly ideas
and habits Of thought, who could be Of the
greatest service in organizing and handling
the hastily-gathered leyies. Should a great
war break out in the next few years, it
would be found that all the most important
parts in il would he played 10y Sons Of Vet
Grams as fighting men, officers and great
commanders.
