PROGRESS IN CHINA.
DraQOnsR En,pira-

The Wheels Move Slowly I'm the
Dragons Empire.
His Majesty the Emperor of China and the
"Son of Heaven is enjoying train of min-
iature railroad cars, presented to him by the
French syndicate of capitalists who wish to
get contracts for building railways
In China, they will wonder at its steam
engine and the six thousand electric lights,
which are now being introduced into the
holiest of Chinese sanctuaries, cannot but
turn their eyes to our civilization. 1t will
not be long ere material advancement will
be made in the science Of medicine, which
has for SO many centuries remained blot
upon their civilization.
The missionaries are doing much to dispel
the mysticism and reverent awe which the
Chinaman holds for the concoctions of
snakes, toads, lizards, etc., prepared by the
native doctors. They recommend standard
remedies which have long been favorably
known in America and Europe, such as DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, a remedy
for all cases of blood-tdints or hunors, which
has had years of uninterrupted success in the
United States, and numbers its cures by the
tens of thousands. This is point gained for
the future welfare Of the Drogomen Empire.

They brought the HERALD splendid
sample of silica, material used in manu-
featuring glass, which they had secured
at Mosier, where Mr.. Harter has discov-
cred immense beds of this valuable min
eral. 1t is also to be found at various
other points near The Dalles. 1t con-
tains 81 per cent. Of silica, which makes
it superior to any other material of this
nature ever discovered in the known
world. These gentlemen were aston
ished at such rich mineral country as
this not having been developed to any
further extent. They will no doubt
make some important discoveries here
before they leave.

raised near New Point, Missouri, and
during his present trouble his mother has
been constantly near him. She sent
what little means she had accumulated
during many years to defend him in the
courts, and since his Imprisonment she
has made Salem her home, working to
maintain herself and to give the sick boy
few luxuries in his confinement. Nearly
every day during these two gears this
heartbroken mother has made her way
to the prison to see her boy, and now she
is rewarded by seeing him a free man.
He is likely, however, to receive full
pardon from on high.

An Important. consideration.


One of the most important things to
be considered in the matter of roads i'm
provement is the width of wheel tires.
Narrow tires cut up the roads and form
ruts.
On all freight and market carts the
tire should be from to 8 inches wide.
On all four wheeled freight and other
vehicles for heavy lading the width Of
the tire should be from to inches.
The fore axle of the latter class Of
vehicles should be 10 or IA inches shorter
than the rear axle, according as the tire
is or inches wide, so that the hind
wheels may run in line an inch outside
Of the surface rolled by the fore wheels.
Thus the carts and wagons became roll
ers, not cutters. The cart with 6-inch
tire rolls foot in width whenever on
the road, and when loaded is heavy
roller. The wagon rolls from 1s to "a
inches.
Mr.. w. R. Cantrell came to town last
evening from Tygh, and from him we
learn the particulars of his encounters
with one of Sam Patteason's cougars last
Sunday on Juniper fat. Some days since
the two panthers that Patterson captured
and Gagged rkgained their liberty and
Sam killed one in attempting the recap
ture and the other he brought back.
The cage consists of large
dry-goods box with boards nailed over
the top, and during Mr.. Cantrell's visit
the cougar managed to escape. Being
good horseman, Cantrell went after
him on the back of a favorite animal,
lasso in hand. Coming up to the brute
within proper distance, the rope was
thrown around his neck, and in his
struggles to free himself he became
choked, apparently, to insensibility. Can
trell jumped of his horse to secure the
animal, and had securely bound his
hind feet when, not being on his guard,
the panther reached his forward paw
across his face, scratching it in several
places, but not in any manner seriously.
Mr.. Cantrell believes in fun, and can ap-
preciate joke ual to any one; but
''bucking" against such tigers as these
mountain lions prove themselves to be,
he declares, is not in the line of amuse-
ments or down on the programme.

AHow much freight do you think the s..

a train OF ten cars to CD ry the souvenirs to

WORKS BOTH WAYS.

1T is remarkable how your trip
abroad has improved you"
1T is the use of the Carlsbad
Waters which has improved me
more than my trip abroad. I have
gained in flesh and strength since
l use them. Many persons use
them for reducing flesh, because
the Waters remove all unhealthy
tissues and superabundance of fat,
but they also build up firm and
solid flesh, which is a sign of per-
feet health. / also use the Carls-
bad Sprudel Salt early in the morn
ing with glass full of the Water.
1t increases the laxative action of
the same. If you ever suffer from
chronic catarrh of the stomach,

THE WORLDS FAIR.

An Omcia1's Opinion Concerning the Work AT
Chicago and the Prospects.
A well-known official Of the worlds fair con-
mission, who has been intimately connected
with the work at Chicago since its beginning.
said to STAR reporter today: The exposition
work is progressing finely. The progress on
the buildings has been very marked since Feb
ruary. Several Of the enormous steel arches
for the manufactures building are in place and
the work of erecting them is wonderfully inter-
esting. Everything points to a very successful
conclusion Of the construction operations. The
applications for space in the buildings are almost
swapping those in charge of that branch of the
work. Most Of the departments have received
more than they can care for in their buildings.
We have but one cloud upon the exposition
horizon, and that Is the question Of finance. The
city aud its citizens have now put up nearly
sll 100000. Foreign nations have appropri-
ated nearly $1,000 900 and the several states
about - 1000. 900. OF course, the money pro-
vided BY foreign nations and the states does not
In anywlse assist us in the construction of the
main buildings and the preparation of the
grounds. but it serves TO show that they appre-
clate the dignity Of ,he occasion. II Congress
decides that the country should bear a portion
Of the enormous financial burden necessary to
produce an exposition that will surpass all
others previously held | think that the way will
thencefortiI be reasonably clear. OF course,
there will still be vast amounts of work to be
done and difficulties to b. grappled with, but
We will not be paraIyzed b.! an unsolvcd finan-
cial problem. We can meet and overcome every
difficulty as 1t presents itself.
