Violet Irene, youngest daughter Of T. E
Briggs, died June 80, 1908. A bud on eartl
to blossom In Heaven.
We saw her swiftly fade away
And yet we prayed that she might stay,
But God In His wisdom knew best
So He took our darling home TO rest.
Now she 10 safe in the arms of Jesus,
Safe on His gentle breast,
There by His love o'ershadowed,
Sweetly our darling will rest.
Free from the blight of sorrow,
Free from all care and pain,
Gone home to be with her mother,
There we can meet them again.

Gentlemen The Cream Separator pur-
chased ofyou during the past season has sur
passed my expectation. The odor ia taken
out Of the milk at once, leaving the milk
pure and sweet; hence the butter made from
the cream is much better than by any other
process. Ny butter is fine, will stay sweeter
longer than by the old process, and the milk
after cream is raised is splendid for young

TRUST HAS MORE TROUBLE.
Reorganization of Pacific Packing Com

Reorganization of Pacific Packing Com
pany Is Opposed.
New York, Sept. 22.-Plans for the
reorganization of the Pacific packing
and navigation company, which have
been in allegiance for eight months, are
to be still further delayed, if threat
ened litigation against the reorganiza-
tion project is instituted. The partial
failure of the packing season just ended
has revived the proposed opposition,
which was held in check awaiting the
result of the seasons operations.
The protective committee, which
includes in its mem mbership J. G. Have
meyer, Alfred G. Bares, Theodore W.
Morris, Stowe Phelps and James Tai
colt, acting for holders of the deben-
ture bonds and preferred and common
stock of the company. is not in har-
mony with the reorganization COM
mittee, and will continue to oppose
it. The plans of the reorganization
committee, it is understood, include
the formation of new company with
capital stock not to exceed $40, 900, 900,
as compared with the present issues of
$6, l50, 900 common stock, 81 100, 900 I

PUMPS FOR GRANT
WORK CAN NOW PROCEED ON DREDGH
WITHOUT DELAY.
Few Weeks Should See the Change COM
pleted-Operation ON the Mouth Of
the Columbia VIII No Doubt Begin
Early Next Month-Engineers Show
That Haste Has Been Made.

Washington, Sept. 23-A telegram
was received by the chief of engineers
today stating that the pumping ma.
chinery for the converted dredge Grant
has been received at the navy yard,
and will sc once be placed in position
on the ship. From this it is inferred
that recent predictions will be fulfilled
and the Grant will be ready for opera
tions on the Columbia river early in
October.
Today's mails brought to the depart
ment notification of the criticism that
has been passed upon the engineers
for taking so long in equipping the
Grant. To chow that instead of delay
the Grant has really been converted in
a comparatively short time, the acting
chief of engineers called attention to
the progress of work on a number of
sea dredges now being bnilt for use on
the principal harbors of the coast.
He said arrangements were made for
converting the transport Grant into
dredge about February and on Sep
tember l the work was 88 per cent
comple ted.
Two sea dredges to have pumps the
size of those supplied the Grant for use
in New York harbor, which were au-
thorized December Is, are not yet 10
per cent completed. There has been
no actual work on dredge for Lake
Michigan authorized March IS, while
the Southwest Pass dredge, begun Feb
ruary 26, is only Is per cent complet-
ed, and dredge for the Mississippi
river, contracted for September 1. 1901,
is but 73 per cent completed. A
dredge for Charleston, S. c., will be
ready for action next month, but it was
authorized December %, 1900, nearly
three years ago. In the case of these
dredges the work is all new.

A BIO SHEEP CENTER.
Thousands are Loaded at Pendleton fol
All Parts of the West.

ALI Parts Oh the West.
Pendleton is one of the greatest
sheep shipping centers of the Pacific
slope, railroad men say. About 10O,-
600 sheep have been shipped from and
through that point this season. A
great many more will be shipped be-
fore the winter season comes on. as
the fall movement has just become es-
tablished.
The o. R. & N. reports that 300 cars
had been shipped from and through
that point, while it was ascertained
that the w. & c. R. had handled 200
cars. The cars, as a rule, are loaded
with about 240 sheep each.
These shipments are much heavier
now than they were last year at this
time. The shipments of the entire
country will greatly exceed the ship
ments of last season, for the reason
that there are more sheep in the
country, and feed is exceptionally
scarce and sheep raisers are forced
to sell. The season is now fairly
opened and heavy shipments will con-
tinue for the next month or so.
Most of the sheep have been ship
ped to Portland on the coast and Seat
tie and other Sound points. Some
have been shipped as far east as st.
Paul. Heavy shipments have been
made to California points. No rea-
son is assigned for this extraordinary
activity, beyond the fact that scare
ity of mutton prevails in the Utah
section. Many sheep of Montana,
this year, have been killed by severe
storms, and there is not the usual sup
ply there.

AMERICA URGED TO ACT.
Strong Pressure Is Being Brought t.
Bear on State Department.

Bear on state department.
Washington, Sept. % 3.-Communica-
tions have reached the state department
urging the government to say or do
something that will put stop to the
atrocities in Turkey. It is stated that
this pressure does not emanate from
the missionaries. Officials at the state
department are reticent about the prob
ability of the United States giving ex-
preston to the feeling with which the
alleged atrocities in Turkey are viewed
by the people of the United States, but
they said that reports from Turkey
show that the deeds dailv perpetrated
in sections of that country are of such
a character as to shock civilization and
necessarily are of deep concern to the
United States.
The state department today received
a cablegram from Minister Leishman
at Constantinople, but nothing was
given out regarding it except that it
contained no alarming news and was
partly concerned With routine business.
Withdrawal of the American squad
ron at Beirut, it is said, has not yet
been determined upon. and no indi-
cation has been received from Oyster
Bay as to the presidents intentions in
the matter.

BIG MINT In BOGUS CHECKS.
Streetcar Conductor Made $40. 900 ON
Transfers.

Transfers.
Boston, Sept. 22.-An extensive
fraud perpetrated upon the Boston &
Northern street railway company, by
the printing of bogus transfer checks,
was exposed today. The checks were
sold to conductors of the road at nemi-
nal price, and turned in to the company
at their full value.
Five persons, including two printers.
who printed the counterfeit checks, one
conductor, who is charged with selling
the bogus checks, and two other per-
sons alleged tc be the principals in the
plot to defraud, were arrested last
night.
In addition, large number of fraud
ulent checks and the plates were found
by the officers. The police have the
names of more than 20 other conductors
who have been turning in the bogus
checks at the company's Office for sew
eral months.
It is said fully 500 checks per week
have been turned in the Office of the
company. and it is believed that the
loss sustained by the company will
equal, if not exceed, 100000.

WEALTH OF ALASKA.
Coal and Oil in Abundance, and Agri-

Coal and Oil in Abundance, and Agri-
cultural Riches Also.
Portland, Sept. 23.-After spending
the summer in Alaska surveying and
locating coal and oil lands and couple
OF nomesteads on Kachenak Bay, rail-
road eight miles long across the head of
this bay, and locations for fish salter-
les on Halibut Cove, John A. McQuinn
has returned to Portland for the win
ter. He is favorably impressed with
that region, in which layers of sand
stone and coal alternate TO consider
able depth, below which it is supposed
oil will be found. The beach is lit.
tered with coal, which has fallen from
veins between the layers OF sandstone
on the bluff shores. 1t is considered
quite certain that oil will be found by
boring to some depth, and machinery
for this will be on the ground next
spring.
The company of New York capitalists
in whose employ Mr.. McQuinn has
been proposes to locate colonies of
Firms and Swedes on the lands it has
had surveyed, and to establish fish salt
cries on large scale. Fish of many
kinds are abundant in the waters there.
Mr.. McQuinn says that when be left
Alaska the last of August the peninsula
between Kachenack and Cooks Inlet,
some 80 miles long>and about as wide,
was covered with wild red-top grass
nine feet in height. The summer is
short, but it is warmer than any other
place in Alaska, and vegetation grows
rapidly, radishes, lettuce, etc., being
ready for use in four weeks from the
time the seed is sown. The company
is going about the development of this
region cautiously and is bound to make
a success of the scheme, Mr.. McQuinn
thinks. When the colonies of Firms
and Swedes are located and the fisher
les and mines fairly opened. vast
amount of wealth will be developed.

Masked Men Blow Open Safe But Get
Little Doodle.
st. Joseph, Mo-, Sept. 24.-Four
masked men, at 10 o'clock tonight,
held up west bound Burlington & Mis-
souri, River train No. Al, five miles
north of this city The safe in the exc.
press car was dynamifed and the car
wrecked. Officials of the road say the
safe contained but little money. Other
reports say it contained -$5 900 to So.
600 in money. Everything in the safe
was taken and the men escaped in the
darkness with horses. A posse was sor-
ganized and is in pursuit OF the banits.
Not single shot was fred.
The train was stopped by means OF a.
red light. The engine and express car
were uncoupled from the remainder of
the train and backed half mile furth-
or on where it was dynamited. The
train was in charge of Conductor Har-
vey, who hurried to the city and gave
the alarm. The officers lost no time
in organizing and making start. It
was necessary for the entire train to
be brought back to the city and new
train made up which left at l O'Clock.
According to the meager reports re.
ceived from the scene of the hold up at
midnight, the instant the train was
stopped, ts;o of the robbers climbed in
to the engine, and with drawn weapons
compelled the engineer aid fireman to
obey orders. One of the men IN
coupled the engine and express car
from the remainder of the train. The
party then climbed into the cab and
the engine and car were run up the
track. The explosion followed. AS
soon as the safe was dynamited, the
men dashed to the wrecked car. It is
asserted that they did not get cent as
a result. The train was loaded with
passengers for the West and the hold
up created panic.
AS soon as the conductor saw the
robbers, he ran back down the track
and secured hand car on which he
came to st. Joseph and notified the
officers.

TREATY IS DEAD.
Panama Canal Held Up by Colombia Un-
til Time Expires.

Washington, Sept. 23.-When the
state department closed yesterday al
4 O'Clock it was agreed that the Pana.
ma canal treaty was dead, although
eight hours yet remained within
which the Colombian congress might
take affirmative action upon it. Moth
ing, however, had been received during
the day, either from Minister Beaupre
at Bogota or from Mr.. Herran, the Co
| lombian charge here, which gave the
slightest hope of favorable issue.
A report is current here that the Co.
lombian congress, in secret session, has
clothed President Marroquin with full
power to negotiate treaty. If this re-
port should turn out to De true, Presi-
dent Marroquin, who is counted a
friend of the treaty, could proceed un-
trammeled by the fear of future reckon
ing with his congress.
In any event, President Roosevelt
must now take the next step. He can
elect to proceed under the Spooner act
and take up the Nicaraguan route, or
be can allow the matter to drift for the
present in the hope that way may yet
be found to straighten out the present
difficulty in the path of the Panama
route
Contrary to his custom during the
summer, Acting Secretary of the State
Department Odell remained in the city
yesterday in order tc be ON hand to act
prom pity on any information which
might come from Mr.. -Beaupre regard
ing canal matters at Bogota. Up to
$50 O'Clock, however, nothing had been
received. DR.. Herran, the Colombian
charge, also waited anxiously for news
from his government, but likewise was
Colombia, it is known,
is anxious to keep alive the canal ne
gotiations.
One interesting feature in connection
with the legislative situation in Colom-
bia is the fact that the terms of one
third of the mem bers in the senate,
nine, will expire on the
Goth of next July. when the life of the
present congress will end. These nine
senators, it is said, are averse to the
canal treaty. The hope of the advo-
Gates of the treaty will be to elect sem
ators in their places who are favorable
to the convention.
