A bright, handsome young woman
claiming to be Mrs. J. o. Dubois. came
TO this city some time ago and regis

on freight train. He went to the
hotel where his wife had registered
and found she was gone. On learning
her whereabouts he sought the Briggs
mansion and had a short interview
with the woman. Briggs handed him

caused Dubois to leave the city imme-
diately. 1t was learned later that it
contained the information that the
sheriff of Pendleton had wired the

Cost of a Church Carpet



We give the following estimate of the
direct and collateral cost of church car
pet. The price was $500, but as the
women of the church raised the money by
giving entertainments the pastor S estimate
was that when all the items of cost were
figured in the carpet had cost fully "a, O00.
He reached this astonishing total by esti-
mating the work, worry, nervous strain,
bodily WEAKNESS and heartaches of 100
women; the heroic efforts of men, women
and children to eat the things which were
to be eaten, and hear, see or buy things
which had been provided to extract money
from them; the colds, fevers and other all
ments contracted while attending the en-
tertainments, and the consequent doctors
bills; the money spent in other churches,
for if they come to your entertainment you
must 90 to theirs; and, worst and most
costly of all, the generalization of the
church and the curtailment of the legiti-
mate giving which follow in the train OF
such methods Of raising money. But they
got their carpet.

Why Young Men Fail.
From saturday evening Posi-.


Thomas d. Bryan, ex-president of the
Worlds Fair. lawyer, capitalist, scholar
and man of affairs and society, has per
sonal acquaintance peculiar in its extent
and nature. In Chicago, his home city,
Mr.. Bryan is known as the friend of young
men, and it is to be doubted if any other
man of advanced years is in closer sympa-
thetic relations with larger circle of
young men than Mr.. Bryan. He states
his view of the most general and potent
causes of failure on the part of the young
men of today as follows
"Chief among the causes which bring
positive failure or Disappointing portion
of half-success to thousands of honest
strugglers is vacillation. The lack of an
undertaking application to one pursuit is a
cardinal weakness in the younger gener-
alton of toilers in almost every line of eff
fort The young men who keep their
eyes fixed on definite goal, never yield
ing an inch until their efforts are attended
with absolute success, are not as common
types as we might wish. Indomitable will
is quality of character that the young
man Of today may well afford to consider
and cultivate.
at is also my observation that uniform
courtesy-kindness of disposition expressed
! in graciousness of conduct-contribute
to larger degree than is generally appre-
ciated, to the advancement of the young
man who fosters this trait On the other
hand, surliness and even Indifference mill
tate against the promotion of the one who
is so unfortunate as to allow these repellant
forces to influence his relations with others.
Polteness is so easy of requirement and
so proftably entertained that | marvel its
cultivation receives so little serious atten-
ton. Certainly the failure rightly to prize
, this element of character gives the key to
many life failure,
1.-The disposition to look on work as
task to be thrown off at the earliest posi-
BILE moment is a too common failing, and
is the reverse of that stalwart faithfulness,
which attracts the attention and approval
of employers and gains promotion and adj
vanCement for those who thus identify
themselves with the interest of those whom
they serve 1t is with the young man as
with the farmer he best succeeds who
plows deepest. To scratch the surface of
things lightly is not enough to insure a
bountiful harvest. The crop of such a
seeding is failure. He who would win
must go deeper, must live more seriously
and with greater determination and fixed
ness of purpose.

The Campaign is Progressing.
From the Boston Herald.


What the country needs to realize Is
that this yer the Presidential campaign
does not have to wait for conventions. 1t
is already in progress. The two leading
candidates are as much in the field now as
they will be fifteen weeks hence. The
chief issues are as clearly defined Events
from day to day are supplying new mate
rial for debate on the stump and in the
newspapers, and things may happen that
will change the emphasis But that will
be true all the way along. Each party
will keenly look out for every chance to
make fresh points. 1t is, of course, con-
ceivable that some tremendous changes
will arise in domestic or foreign affairs OF
such radical nature as to throw into the
shade topics now at the front, while bring
ing into foremost prominence others which
at present command little or no attention.
1t is conceivable, but altogether improb-
able

This is both discouraging and encouraging.
