The Worlds Fair of 1000

The buildings for the Paris Expo
sition of 1900 are we'll advanced.
Many of them, indeed, are external
ly completed, and a considerable
part Of the Eiffel Tower has receiv-
ed the coat of yellow paint which is
relied upon to give it an appearance
of newness.
Meantime the nations are prepar-
ing the exhibits for this great fair,
which will celebrate the completion
of the century of marvels, and no
country has surpassed the United
States in the fullness of its prepara-
tion.
The individual states Of the
Union are preparing exhibits illus
trating their peculiar resources
Colorado, it is said, will send life
size statue of a typical American
girl, made wholly of pure gold. 1t
will weigh nearly two tons, and
will cost about one million dollars.
California will send a little ship,
which will be made from a single
piece of California big tree, and it
is expected will actually sail to
Paris around Cape Horn, across the
Atlantic and up the Seine.
Our country's recent fame as a
fighting nation will be reflected in
models of war-ships, including Ad-
miral Dewey's Olympia and the old
new Maine. American vessels and
other vehicles of peace and COM
merce, especially the all-pervading
trolley-car, will be exhaustively
shown.
After throes and threatenings of
war, the year 1900, through the
influence of the International Peace

Weekly Crop Bulletin.
WESTERN OREGON.

Warm, dry weather and bright
sunshine continued up TO FRIDAY,
the oIst, when cooler weather pre-
vailed, which continued until Sun
day. Rain, in amounts ranging
from .o2 TO .46 of an iuCh, lell on
the 2Ist along the coast and over
the northern portion of the Will
lamette valley. The mean tenn
perature for the week averaged 65
degrees, which is 4 degrees lower
than tor The receding week
ana ? degrees higher than for the
corresponding week last year. The
maximum temperatures ranged
from 65 10 90 degrees, and the
minimum from A to 50 degrees.
The winds were northerly and
light to fresh in force.
The light rain which fell on the
2Ist, although of short duration,
was of great benefit to all vegeta-
tior. While the rain delayed hay
ing in some sections, it did no
material damage, and the little
harm done was more than offset bv
the benefit to the spring-sown grain.
The wheat crop continues in ex-
cellent condition. There are a few
minor reports of rust and burning,
but no serious damage is antici-
pated. Harvesting fall. sowu wheat
has commenced in sections of
various counties, and during the
coming week it will be general.
Spring grain is rapidly turning
yellow and is filling much better
than was first expected. Oats con-
tinue in excellent condition and are
turning yellow in many sections.
Haying is about over, and all
reports indicate that an abundant
and excellent crop has been secured.
Flatlering reports are being re-
ceived III regard to the condition of
hops, which have made wonderful
growth during the last two weeks.
Spraying continues and the lice are
well under control.

is 1T RIGHT
For an Editor to Recommend Pat
ent Medicines?

Gill
From Sylvan Valley News, Brevard, N. C.
1t may be a question whether the
editor of a newspaper has the right
to publicly recommend any of the
various proprietary medicines which
flood the market, yet as a preven-
tive of suffering we feel it a duty to
say a good word for Chamberlain
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy. We have known and
used this medicine in our family
for twenty years and have always
found it reliable. In many cases a
dose of this remedy would save
hours of suffering while physician
is awaited. We do not believe in
depending implicitly on any medi-
cine for cure, but we do believe
that if bottle of Chamberlain's s
Diarrhoea Remedy were kept on
hand aud administered at the
inception of an attack much suf-
fering might be avoided and in
very many cases the presence of a
physician would not be required.
At least this has been our expert
ence during the past twenty years.

Imre Kiralfy's Next Spectacular Show
a Mystery.

New York, March 4.-The Rialto is
rife with rumors that Imre Kiralfy, ad-
rnittedly the greatest of all makers of
spectacles, is contemplating a new show
which will surpass any of the remark
able efforts of the famous scenic inn
presario.
what it will be, and guessing is justifi-
able, because Mr.. Kiralfy always POUNDS
his spectacles on some modern or
ancient historical event; but the matter
has been so we'll guarded that specula-
tors are at a loss.
Imre Kiralfy is the father of the spec
tacle in America. Before his time stage
managers had attempted elaboration in
the theater, but while their productions
were in some cases impressive they
were never original
Kiralfy first startled the theater going
public by his famous production of THE
Black Crook in which for the first time
was used that scheme of brilliant light
effect and gorgeous scenery which
stamp him as a genius.
His BLACK Crook was one of the
greatest money makers the stage has
ever known. But it has been as the
originator of the out-of-door spectacle
that Mr.. Kiralfy has made an enduring
name.
Instead of a stage fifty feet wide he
built one six hundred feet wide. In
stead of a ballet of a hundred girls he
trained and drilled a thousand. Where
dummy ships had before been dragged
over the planks of a stage Kiralfy sail

NO SLEEP FOR THREE MONTHS.
One Cause of Sleeplessness That Can
Be Overcome.

Mr.. VIM. Handschu of 46th st. Cotton
Alley, Pittsburg, Pa, expresses himself
as follows regarding the new remedy
for that common and obstinate disease,
piles: 'I take pleasure in stating that
I was so afflicted with piles that for
three months I got no regular sleep; I
became completely Frustrated, the doc
tors did me no good; my brother told
me OF the new remedy for piles, the
Pyramid Pile Cure; 1 purchased of my
druggist three so cent boxes and they
completely cured me. 1 am once more
at work and but for this excellent rem
edy I would be on my back. I take
great pleasure in writing this letter be-
cause SO many people are sufferers from
this trouble who like myself did not
know where to look for a permanent,
safe, reliable cure.
Experience with the Pyramid Pile
Cure for the past three years has dem
onstrated to the medical profession as
we'll as to thousands of sufferers from
piles that it is the safest and most
effectuaI pile cure ever offered to the
public, containing no opiates or pOisons
of any kind, painless and convenient to
handle, and being sold by druggists
at soc and 81 90 per box is within the
reach of every sufferer
Very often two or three boxes have
made a complete cure of chronic cases
that had not yielded to other remedies
for years.
There is scarcely a disease more ag-
gravating and obstinate to cure than
the various forms of piles, and it is a
common practice to use ointments,
Salves and similar preparations contain
ing dangerous pofSOnS to remove the
trouble. The Pyramid has superseded
all of these inefectual remedies and no
one suffering with any rectal trouble
will make any mistake in giving the
Pyramid trial.
If in doubt as to the nature of your
trouble send to the Pyramid Drug Co.,
Marshall, Mich, for a valuable book on
piles, describing all forms of the dis
ease and describing the method of cure
Any druggist can furnish the Pyra-
mid Pile Cure as it is the best known
and most popular remedy for piles and
if you ask him he can doubtless refer
you to many people in your own vicinity
who have been cured completely by it.

ONE MORE IMPOSITION.
The Courts Will Allow Either Hus
band or Wife to Eat Onions.

New York, March 4-The Wednesday
club, which is an organization with ad-
vanced ideas on the obedience that a
husband owes to his wife, was COM
pletely routed in the supreme court
part 4, today by Justice Scott. 1t had
chaTnpioned the cause of Mrs. Abbie
Seldner Fridenberg, who was suing DR..
Edward Fridenberg for a limited di-
VOrce with substantial alimony
The case was dismissed on the ground
that the wife had not been treated bad
ly enough to warrant separation.
The FridenbergS Quarreled on various
matters, the principal one of which was
that the wife, with amfable persistency,
tried to induce the husband to acquire
the habit of eating fried onions. She
considered that, as she was fond of the
dish, it would he well for them both to
like it. He tried to learn but failed
Then he demanded a written guaran-
tee that onions should not be placed on
the table again She refused to sign
any such agreement, both got hot
headed about it, and they have not
spoken since. Mrs. Fridenberg says
that she is practically prisoner in her
home.
DR.. Fridenberg is a stern, matter-of-
fact man, who looks as if he had not
much Imagination. The testimony of
his wife is that he earns from $4,000
to $4,000 a year.
Mrs. Fridenberg said on the stand
that the estrangement from her hus-
band was caused chiefly because she
found he went bicycling with Mrs.
Holman. Then she sent for a lawyer
and showed him anonymous letters she
had received as to her husbands BIZ
cycling with a woman. The lawyer ad-
vised her to get rid of him.
UNLESS in every case in this state in
which husband and wife quarrel there
is cause for divorce said Justice Scott,
there is none here. There is no legal
evidence of cruelty, and the case is dis
missed"

suffer from headaches, loss of appetite, loss
of sleep, lassitude in the morning, drowsi-
ness during the day and general " out-of-
sorts feeling. If these conditions are
neglected, almost any serious malady may
be the result. Frequently it is some nerv-
Gus disorder or dread consumption. DR..

All too frequently, death dogs the foot
steps of the wife, in the g,lise of weakness
and disease of the delicate and important
organs that bear the burdens of wifehood
and maternity. There is unfailing cure
for disorders of this nature. 1t is DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t acts di-
rectly on the sensitive organs concerned,

STUART ROBsON's TRIALS.
[From the Detroit Free Press. r.

TFrom the Detroit Free Press. +
Stuart Robson, whose long experience
on the American stage has made him
familiar figure to theater goers, does
not believe in the school of dramatic
art. Robson was retained in the days
of Forest and the elder Booth, and he Is
still of the opinion that the theater is
the most efficient school of acting.
MY first professional engagement
was as member Of the old Baltimore
Museum company, when John owens
was manager of that theater. The piece
was the Uncle Toms Cabin AS It Is
written to counteract Mrs. Stoves
work, which was then meeting with ire
mendouS success, both between covers
and on the stage. 1 had only one line,
and it was pure tragedy, the words be-
ing: Farewell, my mother-farewell,
perhaps fOreVerr
Il had studied that line long and
earnestly, and 1 fancied 1 could throw
a heap of pathos into 1t, but my de1iv-
cry brought out boisterous roar from
every part Of the house. That ended my
engagement.
I'm 1861 I was a member of a vaga-
bond road company, playing all sorts of
roles in all sorts of places. One night
Joseph Murphy, the manager of the
Philadelphia Arch street theater, was
in the audience. After the performance
he sought me out and asked me to take
supper with him. At supper he in
quired if 1 would like to join the Arch
Street Stock company. 1t was like ask
ing me if 1 would like to leave purga-
tory for heaven. Would $50 a week and
two benefits do? 1t would!
so 1 joined the Arch Street Stock
company. J. S. Clark had preceded me.
1t was uphill work for a long time. L
played Bob Acres the first night. I was
as anxious to make the people laugh
that night as 1 had been to impress
them seriously when on the stage of the
Baltimore museum, but the house was
as silent as the grave over my work.
1 couldn't raise the ghost of a laugh.
After the curtain went down it was de-
cided to drop me soon it could
was cast to play the leading part in
John Wopps, Policeman Now, it
CHANGED at that time that Philadelphia
was all stirred up over a real policeman
who was in love with a widow and had
that he had been absent in the pursuit
of duty In the play I made love to
butchers wife-played by Cornelia
Jefferson, Joseph JeffersOn'S sister-and
the butcher discovered me embracing
her whereat he cried out:
" 'Knuclkles O. beef and ribs o. veal,
'ere's a go. What's this see?'
81 don't recall the written answer to
this, but do remember the one I i'm
proVised. 1t came to me like a flash.
Without removing my arm from about
the woman's slender form I said: How
dare you interrupt a policeman in the
pursuit of his official duty, sir?
THAT brought down the house, and
there was no more talk of getting rid
of me as soon as possible. In fact from
that time on 1 was a great faVorite in

OUR TRADE WITH CHINA.
Is Reported to Be Much Larger Than
Has Generally Been Supposed.

Washington. March 4.-Consul Gen
eral Mason at Berlin has sent to the
state department a copy of the report
of the commission sent out in 1895 by
the Lyons bureau of commerce to study
conditions in China which report he
says should prove of real value to
Americans who contemplate investing
or settling in that country. The COM
mission started from Tonkin, travelled
extensively in uneXplored portions of
southern China, descended the Yang
Use river almost from source to outlet,
and skirted the coast from Hong Kong
as far north as Pekin. The different
members of the party Travelled in all,
over 1900 miles in Chinese territory.
The report calls attention to the fact
that, according to the returns of Chinese
customs authorities the trade between
China and Hong Kong is given as Brit
ish, whereas in reality Hong Kong is
distinctively a port of transit and that
an important part of the foreign and
coast trade of China passes through
that port and is incorrectly designated
as British and that the import trade
from the United States alone is esti-
mated at $50, 300, 000 The German trade
has increased 20 per cent in the past
four years.
