Occasionally I cried for help, not in

lost IN the rearing tempest ere it had
gone dozen yards.

The Potato Rot.

The potato rot fungus attacks both
the foliage and the tuber of the plants,
causing in the one case what is called
blight of the vines and in the other
what is best known as potato rot.
The first appearance on Che leaves is
seen IN yellow spots and a poWdery
substance on their surface. These
spots soon turn brown, and finally
the whole plant becomes infected and
dies
If the leaf spines come In contact
with the tubers or if the fungus reach
es them through the stems, rotting
of the tubers ensues, provided there
is continuance OF warm, moist
weather, which seems to be a condi.
ton attending the prevalence OF the
disease. In seasons when the atmos-
phere is cool the tops are not attack
ed, and if the soil remains cool the
tubers will often escape when the tops
are destroyed.
Unfavorable climatic conditions of
course cannot be prevented, but it
should be remembered that a loose,
light soil does not promote the decay
like one in which water is held and the
air enters with difficulty Deeply
planted potatoes may escape, while
tubers lightly covered may more
readily contract the disease from the
vines. AS a rule potatoes should be
dug as soon as the vines show that
they have been struck by the rot.
As an applied preventive, some Of
the pertinent stations have reported
favorably on spraying the vines three
or four times with the Bordeaux
mixture. Used at half strength and
with Paris green, beginning with the
appearance of the potato bug, it may
bemade to serve two purposes. Early
planting and early harvesting
are also in the line OF safety against
the potato rot.

MEAT AND DRINK IN ONE.

How a Philadelphia Topper Was
Cured of Dyspepsia.
There is bartender in a certain
elaborate saloon, not far from Broad
and Chestnut streets, who six times a
week prepares what is probably the
most extraordinary mixed drink ever
concocted in this blessed land of COM
bination beverages. He has but one
customer for the drink, and it was
born OF the combined ideas OF the two.
/ One day about a year ago the Gus
toner came in and said: Chilly, I'm
gettin' dead leary OF the Demon Rum;
I'm dead offme feed; me constitution's
been punched out of shape and me doc
says if Isdon't pull up Pm a goner.
Now, what [ want is a drink that is a
drink and a square meal all in one,
and what's more, it's got to be a,
square meal that'll last me till the
next one, which will be the same"
"That's rather a stiff contract"
said Billy; "but I guess we can pull it
off,
Various experiments were made,
and after three days the customer
settled down to regular patronage OF
the following frightfully heavy COM
bination, which he has partaken of at
noon each day ever since, Sundays ex-
cepted, when he says he lives on two
mild milk punches. He calls his bev-
erage breakfast, dinner and tea, =
and the directions are: s'Take an ex-
ira large lemonade glass and drop in
the yolks OF two fresh eggs, add a
sherry glass of liquid chocolate, a
sherry glass OF port. two sherry glass
es of old rye whisky and fill with
cream. Shake well and drink slowly.
He was drinking one slowly when a
Record reporter met him, and after it
was all gone he said with a sigh:
''There, that's all I'll have to eat or
drink till tomorrow, except tumbler
OF milk before going to bed. But me
dispepsey is most gone, and I'm twice

Force OF Personal Magnetism,

Among the most powerful of unseen
forces is personal magnetism Two
men address an assembly on thesam
topic, and in nearly the same words;
one is listened to with indifference, if
at all, the other stirs every fibre of
our being, and our souls thrill respon-
sive to his lightest touch. It is not
what we hear, nor is it graceful pose
or elegant dictation. It is nothing
COMPREHENSIVE or tangible, but an in
visible, mysterious force, which we ac-
knowledge and yield to, even against
our own convictions and reason. This
strange attribute is not hereditary
nor can it be acquired. OF two broth
efs and sisters, born OF the same pa
rents, growing up under the same in
fiuences and amid the same environ
nents. one will possess this singular
gilt. another have not yestige Oft

FIRE IN FOSIL.

-s'Condon Globe. Monday afternoon
about O'Clock the large livery stable
belonging to Chas. Mckenzie at. Fossil
caught fire, presumably from cigar
stump, and within few seconds the en-
ormous structure was a seetbing mass of
roaring flames. Everthing was as dry
as powder. and it was only a second un-
til the flames spread to Elmer Bernard's g
saloon under the same roof, thence to
the old Coates blacksmith shop, thence
to the Hosford building occupied by
Mrs. F. NJ. Judd. By almost super
human efforts the large merchandise
store of w. w. Steiwer & Co., justuorth
across the street, was saved by spread
ing wet blankets all over the roof, it
being protected also by a row of large
poplar trees. p. Potterton's large fur
niture establishment was saved also by
wet blankets. Had SteiwerS & Co.'S. store
caught FIRE, there is no doubt the entire
town would have fallen victim to the
fiend. The scorched boards of that and
Potterton's building are evidence of the
narrowness of their escape. Several
dwelling houses had the paint roasted
out of them also those of j. H. Putnam
and Mr.. Carpenter, and were-eaved only
by the most determined efforts. The
livery stable was the most valuable
building destroyed, and we are informed
that the building was not insured One
horse, belonging to Charley Branson,
who had the stable rented, perished in
flames. He also lost a lot of hay, har-
ness, ETC., and the kind hearted citizens
at once raised about 800 for him. We
have not learned ii any of the other
buildings were insured or not. The loss
is about IS 600. The burnt district liee
in the east edge of the town, and as the
wind was blowing furiously from the
the west at the time, had the fire origi-
mated anywhere in the west end of the
town, nothing but ashes would now be
left to mark the beautiful townsite of
Fossil.

The Wonders OF oregon.

Adolph Sutro and his son Charles, have
been spending considerable time in
southern and Eastern Oregon this year.
Mr.. Sutro has travelled the world over
and is familiar with the wonderland of
the old world. but Crater lake, in his es-
timation, eelipses anything he has ever
seen. In speaking OF the ultramarine ef-
feet of the water, which is 1000 feet in
depth, he said: s.The only omparisoh
can make relative to the color, is that
OF the waters of the Blue Grotto at
Capri, cave in an island off the coast
of Naples. The entrance to the cave is
on alevel with the ocean, and the boat
men who are skilled take the explorer
into the cave in the trough of the waves,
seemingly hazardous undertaking to
the visitor. The water in this cave re-
sembles that of Crater lake in color only
but in magnitude and scenic granduer
the Blue Grotto does not compare, .

| Mrs. Saunders, writing to the doctor
in The Dalles from Saginaw, about the
Bay city fire, Gays 800 people were left
homeless. Forty blocks were burned
out, including 500 residences. besides

Mr.. J. r. Hillstrom OF Hood river was
in the city today attending to some land
Office business, and from a conversation
with him on the division of the county

an attempt is made to log roll bill of
that kind through the assembly next

it will spring up like wasps nest where
least expected.
That Eastern Oregon is in the mind of
railway projection is pretty certain this
year. Occasionally a paragraph is seen
which indicates the way the wind is
blowing. The Klamath Express, speak
ing of the possible intentions of the
Southern Pacific and the Great North
ern, in an interview with Geo. J. Farms
worth, says: 81 consider that Mr..
Crocker's statements relative to the
Southern Pacific's future movements are
encouraging in the extreme. He in
formed me that owing to the large
amount OF railroad building already on
hand his company would not commence
operations toward this point until next
year and that they would tiSep push
their work ahead. At our last meeting
he showed me the line of survey from
which they viii probably deviate but
little. The Southern Pacific is keeping
a watch On the movements of competing
lines and it is quite likely that if the
Great Northern heads for this country
from Idaho this summer the Southern
Pacific may change their plans and COM
mence operations at once" We believe
that Mr. Hill intends 10 continue his
Great Northern road from Butte to San
Francisco via Boise city. o. l.. Miller,
OF Boise, is promoter of line of railroad
to connect Butte with Boise. 1t is a fine
route, penetrating country of extreme
richness. 1t has already been surveyed
and construction engineers will be,
within one week, sent into the field.
Miller is a poor man, and a short time
ago despaired of success. He went east
and visited Chicago and st. Paul, and
returned to Boise with abundant fnan-
cial backing, proclaiming that the road
would certainly be built.
