A bout DIR. Darrin Now Located at
Revere House, Albany.

The republicans of Linn county won't
thank DIR. Darrin for rescuing that old
democratic warhorse, Judge j. j. Whit
ney from the grave Salem Journal.
! Only from deafness. Otherwise the
Judge has been as sound as dollar
Albany Democrat.
DIR. Darrin, the specialist at Albany,
has his Office crowded every day, and the
list of testimonials of his cures are elo-
quent tributes to his ability.-Indepen-
dence Enterprise.
Judge J. j. Whitney, of this city, has
been taking treatment from DIR: Darrin
for his hearing and is surprised himself
at the quick and complete restoration of
his hearing. His letter to the public
speaks much for the successful treat
ment of this specialist.-Hera Aug. 80.
AS will be seen by an article on the
first page of this paper, the eminent
physician, DR.. Darrin, is again in this
part of the Willamette Valley, being
located at Albany to remain until the
first of December. During the dector's
stay in Salem last summer he made
many marvellous cures, and the sick and
afflicted of this section can congratulate
themselves upon being able to take adj
vantage of his remarkable skill in the |
treatment of disease. -Stayton Mail.
There has always been prejudice |
against advertising doctors, but DR.. Dar- |
rim, now in Albany, has overcome this |
prejudice and has received patronage |
from the most influential citizens of the |
county, When such men as w. w. |
Parish, of Sodaville, and Judge Whit |
ney, of Albany, testify to his merits as
a healer he is surely entitled to the con-
sideration of the suffering public.-Leb-
anon Criterion.

School Board.

The School Board have asked
the city council to vacate that
portion of seventh street lying
between the two school blocks,
in order that the entire grounds
around both buildings be con-
verted into play ground for the
school.
Chairman Lilly presented the
request to the city council, and
explained what was wanted.
This is matter looking more to
future needs than to present re-
quirements
The council referred the peti-
ton to the street committee,
with instructions to report at the
next meeting.
The school board are already
anticipating crowded quarters,
even after the new building is
completed, as the school popula-
ton is increasing faster than the
facilities for accommodation. A
new teacher has already been
e'ected, Miss Evans, who will
commence her duties in the rev
building.

/ United States could have formed
but a small share of the total
consumption. Yet the fact that
a large share of our supply OF
this important import comes
from India, China, Frauce, and
Mexico. suggests that there are
large areas in the United States
which might produce goats sue
cessfully and in sufficiently large
numbers to supply the entire

A NEW INDUSTRY.
A Chance For Benton County Stock
Growers.

| A new industry is oferins
itself to the farmers and manu-
facturers of the United Sta'ee.
The fact that $25, 900, 900 worth
OF goatskins are now annually
imported into the United States,
and that her enterprising man-
ufacturers are now obliged to
send halfway around the world
for a large share of them, sug-
gests that the farmers of the
country have great opportunity
to put large share of this sum
in their own pockets, and that
entire sum may be divided be-
tween our producers and manu-
facturers.
A statement just presented by
the Department of Commerce
and Labor, through its Bureau of
Statistics, shows that importa.
tions of goatskins into the United
States are now running at the
rate of $25, 900, 900 per annum
and that a large share of these
are brought from India, China.
Arabia and Southeastern Russia.
The increasing popularity of GER
tain classes of kid leather for
footwear, as we'll as gloves has
increased very greatly the de-
mand for goatskins in the United
States within recent years. In
1885 the value of goatskins inn
ported was about 1900, 900, by
1890 it had grown to 5000, 900,
by 1898 it was SIS, 200, 900, in
1900 it was $22, ooo,co and in
1903 $25, 900, 900, in round num-
berS.
Of this large sum of money
sent out of the country to pur-
chase goatskins 81, 900, 900 went
to India, nearly $2, ,ooe, 900, to
China, $2, 500, 900 to France,
81, 500, 900 to Russia, 81, 500, 900
to Brazil, 81, 900, 600 to Argen-
tina and 81, 900, 900 to Arabia.
From India, which took less than
IS, 900, 900 worth of merchandise
IF all kinds from the United
States last year, and has increas-
I'd her purchases from us less
han $2, 900, 900 in a decade, we
nave increased our importations
If goat skins alone from S, 2, ooo,-
oco 1892 to 81, 500, 900 in 1902.
From Brazil, which has reduced
Ter imports from the United
States from SIS, 900, 900 in 1895
o $40, 900, 900 in 1903, our pur-
,hases of goatskins the last year
we're 1900, 900. France, Rus.
ia, the United Kingdom, Tur-
Sey in Europe and Turkey in
Asia, Arabia, China, Southern
Africa, Argentina and Mexico
Ilso contribute literally to the
upply of goatskins to make up
he $25, 600, 900 worth of this
product brought into the United
States annually.
The farmers of the United
states are apparently making no
fort to reap any part of this gol-
len harvest for themselves.
The census of 1900 showed the
otal number of goats in the
United States to be less than
), 900, 900, and when it is under
TODD that the skins OF probably
%, 900, 900 goats were required

Portland. 1t will be formally
opened on or about October 1st
The sleeping rooms-62 in
all-will have the Ostermoor OF
health mattress and iron bed
steads. The Ostermoor mattress
is conceded to be the best mat
tress ON the market.
The rooms are lighted with
electricity and will be heated
with hot air, large boiler in the
basement supplying the heat,
In the rooms on the first two
floors are return call bells, some
thing seldom seen ia hotels out
side of large cities. The I2
front rooms on these floors are
large double rooms and no trou-
BILE and expense has been spared
in fitting them up in magnificent
style. They are covered with
different tints of paper and are
strikingly beautiful.
On the south side of the house
the rooms are finished in pink
and on the north side, in green,
while the halls are of cream col
or, making a striking contrast.
The parlor on the first floor is all
that delicate taste could make it.
The large dining room is fin
ished with a light shade of pink,
with oak and ash woodwork.
The dining tables are rouud,

ing superior to the square table.

A word regarding the building
as a whole. It was erected on
the same plan as the Hotel Per-
kins, of Portland. In the center
of the building is large court
or lobby. In this is playing
fountain of water containing a
number of fish. A wide hall
connects the office with the lob
by. Two main features of the
house are the spiral stairway run
ming to the roof and the observa-
-ory on the top of the house.
From here, far above the street
below, one can feast upon the
beauties of nature, and on a
bright, clear day more fascinat-
.ng scenery is difficult to find.
Right here let us mention that it
S the intention of the owners to
livert the roof into a root garden,
out this will not be added until

On the sides of the building
will be placed fire escapes and in

DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LOADED
The Janitor Of the Lyceum while
Cleaning Property Pistol Is Shot
in the Palm of the Hand.

III Tue RAIN OF In6 Hand.
While cleaning property pistol at
the Lyceum yesterday afternoon,
Charles Vorholz, janitor of the build
ing, accidentally shot himself. The
weapon, which is generally used by
travelling shows, had become rusty.
and several blank cartridges were
rusted in the chambers. Mr.. Vorholz
was cleaning around the hammer,
when it flew back and in a double
action exploded a cartridge. The wad
entered the palm of the right hand
and bored nearly to the back of the
hand, inflicting a very painful and
dangerous wound. He summoned a
physician who ordered him to go to
All Souls Hospital Last night an
operation was performed, in order to
remove the wadding. At the hospital
this morning it was thought he would
suffer no lasting effects from the
wound.
This morning the patient was rest
ing easily. Danger of blood poisoning
has passed.
Mr.. Vorholz had often before cleaned
the weapon in the same way, and
through careless handling it often be-
came rusted. Familiarity with it
probably bred contempt for it.

The Milton Boys Had a High Old Time
In Dover, and ssTook the Cake.''
From our Milton Correspondent.)
In order that our town readers can
fully understand how the Milton
Cornet Band (Hayseed Band) spent
their Fourth Of July we make the
following mention: On that morning
our band left for Dover at about 6
O'Clock, under the guidance of Charles
Hopper, and arrived at Dover two
hourselater. Some little light-headed
fellow yelled out, 'sBuckwheat Band,
come blow yourselves for oncep' etc; !;
but that's just what made the fun, as
some of our sleepy boys had something
equally as good if not better in return
every time, which now broke up the
opposition
At 10 o'clock Vigilant Engine Com
pany got our band out on the street,
and, gosh! we thought they were 60
ing to march us to Morristown and
back, but we got off on ten miles. We
had to go right up and down the hills
and the crowdl thousands and thou
sands. During the march our band
played thirty tunes, which just about
took an the gumption out of our fell
lows. The Citizens Band of Dover
led the parade, followed by our band of
only nine members all told, with the
fire department behind u.s. The
parade lasted about an hour and a half.
The Dover people and the company
which hired us treated our band in
fine style, for which thanks are ten
dered
