Montgomery, Nov. 1.-The official bull
letin of the board of health today chron-
icles only one new case of yellow fever
for the past twenty-four hours-F. H.
Yarbrough, 1923 Heron street, and one
death, r. H. Weathers, 500 South Court.
Mr.. Weathers contracted his case at
his work as a cotton man in the infected
district. He was not reported until yes
terday, but had been sick for several
days before he called a physician. He
was not a strong man and so yielded
rapidly to the attack.
The fact that there has been only one
new case in the last twenty-four hours
shows the beneficent influence of the
changed weather 1t commenced rain
ing yesterday and rained hard last night.
This morning it commenced clearing off
and became colder The thermometer
has been under so all day and cool
wind has been blowing from the north
west. The indications are that it will be
quite cold in the morning and If there
is no wind there will be good frost.
Everybody feels that the epidemic is
practically over. The chances are that
there will be few if any more cases and
those probably from houses in which
there have already been cases to which
other members of their families have
been exposed.

Odd Bits Of Information AbOut the
--latest in Dress.
Tailor made pique costumes will
form one Of the very smart styles
for afternoon wear this Summer.
The new three-piece skirt has a
very wide front breadth.
Pointed epaulettes, toreador jack
ct fronts, and plain and folded grid
les still lend great variety to Spring
street costumes and house toilets.
White batiste, silk null and chiff-
on blouse vests and loose waist
fronts are made with bands of hand
some lace insertion that cross each
other, forming blocks either large
or small. A pretty effect is gained
by placing pink, blue or mauve rib
bon under the crossing bands, leav-
ing the white blouse itself with no
background of color.
Word comes from trustworthy
French sources that fine gold neck
laces, narrow bangle bracelets, and
small Etruscan gold earrings and
larger gold hoops set with pearls,

Carnations, geraniums, gladioli,
tulips, lobelia blooms, roses, Gamma

among the brilliant red flowers that
are used upon Spring hats and
bonnets..f4
Loose silk and chiffon waist fronts
are trimmed with rows of gathered
or plated ruffles to simulate bole-
ro or Jacket bodice effect. The same
garniture is used on the neck, sleeve
tops, and at the wrist of the close

Laborlng Men Keep Away.

After a careful investigation of
the situation the Enterprise would
advise every laboring man seeking
a job to keep away from the Astoria
and Globe railroad on the lower
Columbia. In the first place the
contractors took the job at a price
which precluded their paying de-
cent wages, even had they been so
minded, and the big profits they
each expect to make they take out
of what should be the just earnings
of their men. No cash is paid out,
their plan being to make the COM
missary and boarding house pay
the bills. The men are charged
$40 per week for board, and in
some of the camps the board is as
tough as man can stand, and
every man is compelled to board at
the mess house and buy his supplies
at the commissary. paying ex-
horbitant prices for his purchases.
The teamsters are all compelled to
buy their feed and supplies at the
commissary as well as have their
shoeing and repairs done at the
company's blacksmith shod. The
hospital fees are 81 per month and
are collected even if the man works
but one day. If a man is extra
industrious and puts in full time SO
that there is liability of his wages
exceeding his board and supply ac
count he is laid off a few days at a
time, so that his board bill, which
goes on, will even up the account at
the end of the month, or at least
leave but a small balance, which is
paid in time checks, and to get cash
on them the men have to sell them
at heavy discount to brokers, that
is when they are lucky enough to
find someone to take them up.
To keep up the supply of men
the company has advertised all over
the coast and influenced news
papers to editorially score laboring
men for not all rushing to the low
er Columbia where plenty of work
and good pay awaited them. The
company tried to hire Cinnamon
but the willy Celestials were shy OF
the job, and failing to get them, an
effort was made to secure the con-
victs out of the state penitentiary,
but, but the governor had no au-
thority to make the contract. With
the thousands of idle men on this
coast there would be no difficulty,
were they treated right, for the As
toria company to get men enough
to complete their little road in go
days, but at the progress made dur
ing the past year it will take six
years yet before the road is COM
pleted. Oregon Enterprise.

We don't understand this. Will
some one please make the matter

American capitalists have secured
three new railroad concessions in
Mexico and will begin the work of
building without delay. Why should
these capitalists Of a gold standard
country go to poor, deprecated, sill
yer standard Mexico to invest their
accumulated surplus? Are they
financial idiots, or perhaps the sill
yer standard is not SO bad as they
told us it was few months ago.
