Concentration.
.SunerS

T. n
The men who manage some OF
the largest enterprises IN the
world work butfour or five hours
a day, and younger men thus
argue that they need not work
long hours to be successful. The
point, however, is that the man
who can do his work in four
hours has gained the informa-
ton necessary by years OF hard
labor and probably exc eptionally
long hours. He concentrates his
mind on the matter in hand and
turns it off in a few hours, but he
must have health and strength to
do it and for this reason he will
drink golden grain belt beer reg
ularly with his meals. It's the
best tonic ever brewed and should
be in every home. Order Of your
nearest dealer or be supplied by

This bit of woman's wit so surprised
a masked bandit last night when he
attempted to rob Miss killson OF Har-

Sixteenth street, that he permitted
her to go on unmolested. Miss Killson,
who is a stranger in the city, was on
her way to visit friends when she was
suddenly halted by rough-looking In
dividual who stepped from the shadow
of building With the command for
her to give up her pocketbook the foot
pad showed a big revolver in the Wo-
mans face. She was carrying a grip
in one hand and a hat box in the 9th

the demand without first putting them
down, she so told the highwayman,
without thinking what she was saying.
When the bandit had gone and she
realized what had happened she nearly

ONE MILLION DOLLARS
Senator DOIIiver Of Iowa Will Favor
That Sum for Lewis and Clark
Fair.

United States Senator Dolliver,
OF Iowa, who is now in Oregon, was
entertained the other night at a
dinner given at the Arlington Club
by Hon. H. w, Scott, Of the Ore
gonian. In response to a toast Civ
en- there by Senator Mitchell, Mr..
Dolliyer said Oregon should have
and would get an appropriation Of
a million dollars from Congress for
the Lewis and Clark Fair.
The Oregon delegation has felt a
little timid about asking for that
amount but with a.few men with
the ability and influence of Senat-
or Dolliver favoring the allowance
there will not be any great difficult
ty in securing the appropriation.
Senator Dolliver has very high
opinion Of the possibilities Of the
great west. He says no other part
Of the country could find recogni-
tion for an appropriation next year
for fair but the North West. The
historical events associated with
the Lewis and Clark Exposition
will carry enough influence to get
The appropriation.

VIII Conduct Republican Politics in
Oregon Until Next Convention.

Hon. F. G. Baker has been elect
ed chairman Of the Republican
State Committee TO succeed w. r.
Matthews, who resigned on being
appointed United States Marshal
for Oregon. Mr.. Baker first came
before the public as a politician
when he was nominated for state
printer in 1886. He held the of
flee Of state printer for eight years
and until 1894. Just what effect
Mr.. Bakers election will have on
politics in Multnomah county is
question very hard to answer and
one about which much questioning
is being made. He was evidently
the choice Of both Senator Mitchell
and Senator Fulton. And even
Mr.. Williamson seems to have felt
very kindly toward his election, SO
it would seem the Mitchell wing
of Multnomah Republicans claim
the honor of the new chairman.

The Remains of Miss Effie Richardson
Taken to Falls City for Burial.

Miss Efie (Fay) Richardson died
in Portland, Friday, July II, 1908,
aged 81 years, II months and A
days. Her last illness was of short
duration. The remains were brought
to Dallas on Saturdays evening
train, and were taken to Falls City
for burial. The funeral was held
from the Christian Church in Falls
City, Sunday afternoon at 2
O'clock. The services we're con-
Quoted by Ed. A. H. Dodd, and
were largely attended.
Miss Richardson was a daughter
of Mrs. Electa Richardson of Falls
City, and was born in Michigan.
She came with her mother t. Ore
gon few years ago, and for some
time was engaged in the millinery
business at Monmouth. She went
East on a visit about a year ago,
and, upon returning to Oregon, en-
tered the employ of one OF the
large department stores at Port
land as milliner. She continued.
in this employment up to the time
of her last illness.
She was young lady Of more
than average intelligence and busi-
ness ability, and endeared herself
to all by her charming manners
and gentle disposition. Her death
is a sad blow to her mother and to
her many friends in Polk county.
