CHANCE FOR
TWO WOMEN
Governor Geer Will Appoint Dele
gates to the Pan-Amerlcan.
FAIR PLAY.

Governor Geer is in receipt of letter
from William g. Buchanan, Direct Gen
eral of the Pan-Ameriean Exposition Of
1901, to be held at Buffalo, N. V, re-
questing the appointment of two women
OF this state to serve as honorary mem
bers of the Board of Women Managers,
which is provided for in the act creating
it. Mr.. Buchanan says il is the "de-
sire of the aut horities of the Exposition
to place within the reach of all the
states and territories every possible ad-
vantage which may spring therefrom,"
hence these honorary members.
"The executive Board, >" says Mr.. Bu-
chanan, "wil correspond with the hon.
orary members so named in the differ
ent states concerning the work Of wo-
men, AS it relates to the exposition, and
il is believed much can be done through
this board to further the many branches
of work in which women are now en-.
gagged in our country"
Governor Geer would be pleased TO
hear from some s0regon women who
would wish to assume the honorary
dutie so he can select two for appoint
ment.
Governor Geer today asked Judge
Arthur p. Tiff, of Portland, an Oregon
delegate 20 the Pan-American Exposi-
tion at Buffalo, n. Y, TO name one Of
the women for honorary member Of the
Board OF Management.

Token Of Affection.

There was a great COmmOtiOn yeSter-
day afternoon about 4 o'clock in the
alley between First and Second streets
and nea its Grand avenue entrance.
Mr.. Ford appeared suddenly on the
street with his eyeballs rolling and
with blood squirting in a stream from
his right wrist. He wanted a doctor
pretty bad. 1t happened thai Dr..
Hyrup-Pedersen was just coming out
OF his office above Trainings store and
he grasped the situation and the negro
in the same moment and hurried the
negro up to his office.
AS quickly as he could he stretched
him out on an operating chair, put a
forceps or his arm to stop the flow of
blood and then examined the wound.
He found hat Ford's right wrist had
been nearly severed. The artery was
cut and. until the flow was stopped
above was squirting blood at a rate
that would soon have ended Mr.. Ford's
love-making. The tendons. too, were
cut in two and the hand hung limp
and lifeless. Ford only rolled his eyes
a little while DR.. Petersen tied the ar.
terry. reunited the tendons and tool

around him found that he was lying
not far from the railroad track near the
freight depot. 1t was dark and cold
and the chilly clectrict lights hurt his
eyes. He tried to rise and fell back
with a groan.
After a long thoughtful rest he eau
tiously examined his pockets. Yes, he
thought so. There was not a cent
there of all hat $50. He had beer
beaten and robbed. AS soon as he
could gather strength enough he went
up town, %groaning and cursing jagged
ly at every step. He wandered into the
city hall and wandered out again. He
went up and down the streets in a daz-
ed sort of fashion and then lay down
in a doorway and slept all night.

BLOCH AND ROBERTS.

NJ Bloch, the eminent Russian writer
on military topics, thinks that wars
will, In the future, be impossible. He
thinks that troops not able to hide
under the smoke OF their own artillery,
exposing themselves to the accurate fire
OF modern cannon and guns will run
the risk Of humiliation.
He emphasizes the impossIbihty Of
conquering, because the efficiency OF
the defense is so great that be-
sieged force may hold out indefinitely,
and he thinks the Beers may not be
overcome II they entrench themselves
in their strongholds. He sees no end
Of the South African war except by
arbitration.
II Is a pity the belligerents them
selves should not see the war from a
similar point Of view. Lord Roberts
seems confident OF bringing the strug-
gle to an end with the complete sub
jugation Of the enemy But then It is
one thing to write theoretically about
great movement, and another thing to
take a practical part In II. Bloch is
doing the former and Roberts the lat
ter. Bloch could not foresee the sur
render OF Cronie. There is where Rob-
erts had the best Of the Russian author.
