No matter how eggs may be kept or

Southern Pacific Appeals From Judge
| Bellinger's Decision.
| United States District Attorney
Murphy has filed notice Of appeal u
the United States supreme court of the
case known as the quadrant land case
ofthe United States against the Ore
gon Central & Oregon California rail-
road companies, to recover several
thousand acres of land near Forest
Grove. The lands are occupied by set.
tiers and the secretary of the interior
held them to be government lands
The United States was required to sue
the arilroads to quiet title for the set
tiers, and Judge Bellinger decided for
the settlers and that the lands belonged
to the government, subject to the set
tiers rights. The case was appealed
be the Southern Pacific company,
which now OWNS the grant ofthe two
other railroad companies, and Justice
Fuller, sitting In the United States
circuit court Of appeals Of the Ninth
district, reversed the secretary of the
interior and Judge Bellinger, and held
the lands to be the property Of the
railroad company. 1t would mot be
proper to allow the settlers to be dis
possessed while there is still another
chance, consequently the appeal to the
highest tribunal IN the land.
The controversy is a peculiar one.
The Oregon & California company
was to build road from Portland to
Astoria and built from Portland to
Forest Grove. The Oregon Central
built a line from Forest Grove to a
point on Yamhill river. Each com
pany, BY Its land grant, was allowed
twenty miles Of land along the line of
the road as far as constructed, measur-
ing in any direction. Running south

were used to help some of the little
ones up the steep ascent. We then
went through the "Wildernessn to

continued our journey, reaching the
top at 1880 M.
On one side of us we could see the
the beautiful snow-capped peaks of

in allits stages and that is Catarrh Halls
ratarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known in the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a constitution disease, requires a
constitutional treatment Hdll's Catarrh
cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the

OF the diseasa, and gives the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing Its work. The

she went exploring, so did Fab Chung, and

complicated when Caldwell took to shad

not grin so hard when he looked at Mr..
Caldwell, particularly after he had seen
Miss Pearson fasten rose in his button

After Mss Pearson had spent five hours
and a-half on different Saturdays in eX-
planning different doctrines to Fab Chung,
she came to the conclusion that she was
giving him spiritual truths in too large
doses. The one word 'Christan' really
contained all she was trying to teach him;
so she gave up lecturing, and contented
herself with saying over and over again in
a very loud tone;
''Christan, Christian, Mr. Chung -
Christian"
He took it that she was teaching him the
English for some article in the washing
but he could not hit upon Just which one.
He would lift collar and say, "Clistian ~
and she would shake her head. Then a

He did it, though. He walked into Miss

basket of clothes, and Mortified that virgin
by remarking; 'NIe Clistian now, hellee

had adopted civilized language.
The change in dress Swallowed upon Miss
Pearson's mind the fact that her laundry
man was a man, and her manner towards
him became somewhat reserved. That was
good for a beginning. He wrote her let
