ENJOYABLE Winter Trip.

A winter trip to Southern California
and Arizona via the famous Shasta
Route is one never to be forgotten. Re
newed acquaintance with this section
will ever develop fresh points Of interes,
and added sources Of enjoyment under
its sunny skies, in the variety Of inter
ests and added industries, in its prolific
vegetation and among it's numberless
resorts Of mountain, shore, valley and
plain.
Two trains leave Portland daily
morning and evening for California.
These trains are equipped with the
most improved pattern Of standard and
tourist sleeping cars, and the low rates
place the trip in reach OF all.

The New Tex Low.

At the last session of the legislature a
new law was passed in regard to the col
lection of taxes, which law took effect
on Dec. l, 1901, and its substance is as
follows:
l. If you pay your taxes on or before
March Is you will be allowed a rebate
of 8 per cent.
2. II you pay your taxes between
March 10 and up to and including the
first Monday in April, there will not be
any rebate neither will there be any
penalty or interest added.
5. If your taxes are not paid on or
before the first Monday Of April, they
will become delinquent, when there will
be added penalty of 10 per cent, and
the tax will also draw interest at the
rate OF IL per cent per annum in addi-
tion to the penalty.
4. If you pay one-half Of your taxes
on or before the first Monday in April,
then the remaining half may run up to
and including the first Monday in Octo-
ber following; but if the last half of
tax due is not paid by the first Monday
of October it becomes delinquent, and
there will be added to such balance, a
penalty OF 10 per cent, and in addition
such balance will bear interest at the
rate of u per cent per annum from the
first Monday in April until paid.
8. On all personal property taxes, If
one-half is not paid on or before the
first Monday in April, the law compels
the sheriff to levy up on and collect the
same after May lst, hence to prevent a
levy upon personal property after May
LIST it will be necessary for one half to be
paid as above stated.
8. The law compels the sheriff to sell
all lands on which taxes have not been
paid, and that such sales shall not be
held later than March lst Of the year in
which the tax levy is made.
Z. The property will be sold to the
person bidding the lowest rate of inter
est, and certificates will be issued there.
for, and deeds given to such propert,
sold, unless redeemed within three
years from the date OF such sale.

Brain-Food Nonsense.

Another ridiculous food fad has been
branded by the most competent author
ties. They have dspelled the silly
notion that one kind OF food is needed
for brain, another for muscles, and still
another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish particular part of the
body, but it will sustain every other
part. Yet. however good your food may
be, its nutriment is destroyed by indi
gestion or dyspepsia. You must pre-
pare for their appearance or prevent
their coming by taking regular doses Of
Green's August Flower, the favorite
medicine of the healthy millions. A
few doses aids digestion, stimulates the
liver to healthy action, purifes the
blood, and makes you feel buoyant aud
vigorous. You can get DR.. G. G. Green e
reliable remedies at DR.. Kremer's.

District c. f. Convention.

A meeting Of the executive committee

Willis Baer, OF Boston, March 9th. The
program was outlined and assurances
received that many visitors from the
district would be present. Rev. @. w.

Poetic Reporter.


The 0regonian says their last appli-
cant for position as reporter said he
had been devoting his attention princi-
pally to writing poetry, and bad not
much experience In the less graceful
but serious and useful branches Of liter
ature, but he was willing to learn. He
was sent out TO look for news, and at the
end Of the day turned in the following:
1.-TWO old pioneers, who came to Port
land when 1t was nothing but hole in
the forest, where deer galloped through
the tall fr trees, the tops oil which seem
ed to reach the very sky, and down be-
low the old Willamette Laundry, on
what 10 now the New Clarendon Hotel
property, back Of the mill belonging to
the Pennoyer estate. But that was be-
fore the days Of steam logging and the
taut cables which now so often snap in
twain, endangering and sometimes TAX
ing the lives OF hardy loggers, one Of
whom is now in Good. Samaritan Hos
pital with compound communicated
fracture olthe lower left iawbone, which,
although exceedingly painful, is not
necessarily dangerous. lie was resting
easily when seen by an 0regonian re-
porter last night, and his early recovery
seemsI Iprobable." -, eco
z He was informed .Ithat the poetic in
stinct was too extensively developed in
him to allow OF his. ever becoming use
ful as a reporter, and he was advised TO
stick to poetry. On investigation 1t was
found that the paragraph he had turned
in had been faxed, and that he had
seen no man in any hospital.

Platinum In Southern Oregon

Platinum In Southern Oregon
An Ashland dispatch to the Telegram
says:
Considerable comment has been made
Of late in the local press in the Oregon
mining districts as to the existence
OF platinum in commercial quantities
within the state. Specimens Of this
mineral have been panned by pros
pectors from the gravels of the Umpqua
river. The beach sands on the coasts
OF Curry and Coos counties yield plati-
mum and osmiridium, but not workable
values, and few ounces OF platinum
have been saved yearly for number Of
years from some OF the placer mines on
the heAdwaters OF the Illinois river, in
Josephine county.
The Simmons Cameron mine has prob.
ably afforded the most Of this precious
metal from the Illinois. Practically all
the worlds product Of platinum up to
this time has been washed from alluvial
gravels. Iu recent years the country
bordering on placer diggings yielding
platinum has been prospected closely to
find the metal associated with veins, but
there have been only three instances Of
success in the whole world. and the
third is a recent discovery in Wyoming
The other two are in Russia and Canada
The one in Canada is not deemed OF com
mercial importance. The Wyoming dis
coyery reported by Professor Wilbur O..
knight in the Engineering and Mining
Journal. and further authenticated by
Denver assayers. should be OF consider
able interest to Oregon miners, par
ticularly in those districts OF Southern
Oregon where placer platinum is found.
1t should stimulate thorough prospect.
ing OF lodges in position to have fed such
placers and cause closer scrutiny on
the part Of assayers to note the presence
OF this metal. The Wyoming discovery
is in the Rambler copper mine, so miles
southwest Of Laramie, in the Medicine
Bow mountains.
Professor Knight says that very re-
Gently the Denver assayers. while at
tempting to account for the variation in
the assay value OF the Rambler ores,
discovered that platinum was present
and usually in paying quantities. This
brought about an investigation and
numerous samples were tested. 1t was
found that platinum was present in ores
from all parts Of the mine, but more
especially from the blue copper ore, a
sulphide known as covellte. 1t is moi
known yet whether the platinum il
found In the metallic state or as com.
pound. A quantity Of the ore is being
worked at the state university labors-
rory. and several Colorado chemists are
reported at work on samples to ascertain
the nature Of the platinum in the ore
and also 20 discov other rare elements
The assays reported give 06 ounce to [
ounce platinum to the ton. The vein
occurs in schislose formation that Il
only short distance from granite.
From ali we know OF the conditions
surrounding platinum deposits, there
ought TO be more hope Of finding pati
mum mine in the Southern Oregon die
tricts named and in one California dis
trict, than elsewhere in the west. Tn,
metal.is nearly indispensable for severa
important uses, and there is no othe
metal that can replace it in some appli
cations which are made Of it. 1t is nov
worth about the same in gold.

COOLEST DAY
IN MANY YEARS
From Mondays daily.)

When the weather bureau thermOm-
eter registered 50 degrees yesterday,
ii touched the lowest mark the mercury
has reached in eleven years. At that
time the registration was just the
same, SO that it was as cold during
Sunday as ii has been here for the
last generation The nuctuation was
the greatest ever known, too, for the
highest point was IS degrees, which
gave range of "A degrees, while the
greatest previous range was 20, and
that TOO, was some years past.
All Of the weather phenomena re-
Gently have been out of the ordinary.
The barometer during last week once
showed fluctuatiOn of ~ of an inch,
which Is a remarkable range for this
climate. This was not the only Varia-
BILE mark either, for there was a drop
Of 20 points in the dew point within
one days time.
All the evidences last evening were
that there was coming another storm
from the southwest but ii will proba-
bly, be storm of wind and not one
OF rain, though the clouds which were
being banked up last night We're from
the south.
