A cheap remedy for coughs and
colds is all right but you want
something that will relieve and
cure the more severe and danger
Gus results of throat and lung

mate? Yes, if possible; if not pos
sible for you, then in either case
take the only remedy that has been
introduced in all civilized countries
with success in severe throat and
lung troubles, Boschee's German
Syrup. 1t not only heals and stim-
ulates the tissues to destroy the
germ disease, but allays infama-

commended many years by all drug
gists. For sale at Finney's phsr-

upheaval of the Earth.

A special to the Call from Seattle
says; The Nooksack river, one of the
navigable streams of this state, has
been damned and the course of the
river changed by an earthquake up
heaval. The bed of the river now rises
ridge-shape to height of seventy feet
1t is no longer river bed cut by the
rush of water.
This eruption and upheaval is cen.
tered about Mount Baker, one of the
highest and most interesting peaks of
the Cascades. 1t occurred March q,
and was accompanied by sound not
unlike the heavy rumble of thunder.
Hamilton, a town ten miles distant,
heard the report.
News of the phenomenon came from
ID. Z. Simons, jr., who was in the vicin-
ity of Mount Baker, timber cruising,
at the time of the earthquake. He says
the upheaval turned the river from its
course and from the center of the
e'SoN Ahooc ohio"h up py tHt tdTJu ,
telching can now be seen lake. Such
trees as escaped destruction stand at a
remarkable height in comparison with
other timber growth. Gaping cracks
and crevasses large enough to engulf
a team and wagon were seen. A strong
scent of sulphur permeated the air i'm
mediately following the upheaval
A cabin occupied by William Hadley,
trapper, was demolished. 1t stood in
the center Of the great new mound.
Hadley was not in his home at the time,
else he could not have escaped death.
The lake formed in the center of the
thrown up ground is declared to be a
quarter of mile in length and half AS
wide.

Chicago is having no end of trouble
with its public schools. Membe of
the board of education declare that
some of the teachers are so welded to
advanced" methods that they fail to
give proper instruction in rudimentary
branches. 1t is even charged that the
teachers themselves, or some of them,
are unable to speak, write and spell
English correctly, and the truth of this
allegation was admitted by the super
intendent, Professor f. Benjamin An
drews, at a meeting of the school
board. Thereupon member expressed
himself in vigorous terms, as follows:
"The trouble is that the attempt is
made to teach spelling without spell
ing book, the English language with
out grammar, etc. We are advanced
too fast. Let us stick to the grammar
and the spelling book, no matter if
they are called old fashioned. Give the
pupils one hour every day with the
grammar, not English literature, Hia.
watha, Julius Caesar, or anything of
that sort, but the old.fashioned tech
nical grammar" This suggestion found
favor with the board, and at last ac-
counts the Chicago teachers had de.
cided to try old d.fashioned, common
sense methods even at a sacrifice of
"advanced" theories.-San Diego Union.

American Outlanders.

Is the heading that appeared on a
lengthy editorial in the Oregonian OF
March 26, showing the position taken
by the Canadian government regarding
mining by Americans in the Atlin and
Klondike districts, Alaska. Said edi-
torial was brought forth by commu.
nlcation from G. w. Thompson pub.
lished in last Saturdays Oregonian
about the oppressive measures imposed
by Canadian officials upon American
miners.
The editor says that it is not to the
credit of American citizens if they
have endured all these indignities in
silence. Possibly not. But whenever
move is made in congress to investi.
gate the boundary question, or any
other that might disturb the brotherly
love existing between the English gov
ernment aud the present administra-
tion, it is promptly squelched for fear
of hurting Johnnie Bulls feelings.
Still these abuses heaped upon the
American miner will bear fruit, and
some day the Canadians will find Un-
Gle Sam expanding" in the direction
be should have taken long ago.
IL one-third- the money which has
been spent by Americans rushing to
British Columbia territory had been
spent in developing and opening up
their own country, all the "outlanders"
who went north would today have
something besides experience to show
for their work.-Oregon Mining Record.

Beers FULL OF FIGHT.
keepUp Harassing Warfare Through
out South Africa.

The military situation in South Africa
is as bad as can be imagined from the
British point of view. The Beers have
effected an unbroken series of considera
BILE successes in every corner of the thea
ter Of war, and gravest Of all is the evil
dence of their ability to isolate Cape Col
ony from the north. An attempt to send
British re-enforcements from Bloemfonr
tein to strengthen the lines of eommuni-
cation in the southern part of the Grange
River colony has failed. There has been
persistent sniping as FAR south as the
Fraserburg road
This determination to display a soli-
darity of race feeling puts enormous diff
culties in the way of Lord Roberts in his
work of suppressing guerrillas with a
severe hand. The Cape Dutch practical
ly say, UNLESS you treat the Boerf as
honorable beligerents, we will make our
soldiers suffer-
1t viii be impossible, correspondent
says, to suppress ', would be called
disaffection in the north of the colony If
families are deported, as was done at
Jagersfontein, after an attack from the
garrison there. The Beers will be able
to fight for months among their trackless
highlands and easily trap and destroy
parties of stronger troops if an attempt
Is made to burn and raze little homer
steads.

from Ruins of Burned Yamen.

from Ruins of Burned famen.
The report of Brig. Gen. Heywood,
commanding the United States Marine
Corps. has been made public by the Navy
Department. Its most interesting fea-
lures are those covering the operations
Of the United States marines in China,
including the heroic defense of the lega-
tons on Tien-tsin, which have been fully
described heretofore. Gen. Haywood sub
mits the following account OF taking of a
considerable amount of bullion in the
siege of Pekin: I'm communication Col.
Meade refers to the looting which had
been going on in Iien-tsin. He stated
that the treasury had been ransacked, but
that all the vaults were not looted, and
Maj. Waller with a force was searching
for the treasure. The treasure, which
consisted principally of silver bullion,
fused with brick, mortar and other de-
bris, was recovered from the ruins Of
the salt commissioners yamen, which had
been looted and burned before the ma
rines arrived on the spot The bullion
was counted, estimated at S316, 300. Unit
ed States currency" Gen. Haywood says
that the bullion was exchanged for three
New York drafts, which have been for
warded by Paymaster Bryan Of the navy
to the Secretary of the Navy.

Their Imports and Exports.
The manufacturers of the United States
are rapidly increasing their share in the

amounted to 1921, 600, 600, while their ex-
ports Of finished manufactures in the
same time amounted to $685., 0O0,0 600,
eclipsing all records. In the correspond

ed manufactures, which a decade ago
formed but IS per cent of the exports,
now form over SO per cent of the ex-
