GOATSKlNS IN DEMAND.

A new industry is Offering itself to
the farmers and manufacturers of. the
United States. The fact that 20 mil
lion dollars worth of goatskins are now
annually imported into the United
States, and that her enterprising man
ufacturers are now obliged to send half
way around the world for a large share
of them, suggests that the farmers of
the country have great opportunity
to put large share of this sum into
their own pockets, and thdt the entire
sum may be divided between our pro-
ducer3 and manufacturers.
A statement just presented by the
Department of Commerce and Labor,
through its Bureau of Statistics, shows
that importations of goatskins into the
United States are now running at the
rate of % million dollars per annum,
and that a large share of these are
brought from India, China, Arabia,
and southeastern Russia. The increas-
ing popularity of certain classes of kid
leather for footwear, as well as gloves,
has increased very greatly the demand
for goatskins in the United States
within recent years. In 1885 the value
of goatskins imported was about Q mil
lions, by 1898 1t was Is millions, in 1900
1t was 90 millions. and in 1908, 25 mil
lions, in round numbers.
OF this large sum of money sent out
of the country to purchase goatskins,
z million dollars went to India, nearly
millions to China, 1-2 millions to
France, l 1-2 millions to. Russia, l L.
millions to Brazil, / million to Arsen-
tina. and another million TO Arabia.
From India, which took less than mil
lion dollars worth of merchandise of
all kinds from the United States last
year, and has increased her purchases
from us less than . million dollars in
decade, we have increased our inn
portations of goatskns alone from 2
million dollars in 1899 to 1-2 million
dollars in 1902. From Brazil, which
has reduced her imports from the Uni
ted States from Is million dollars in
1895 to 10 million dollars in 1908, our
purchases of goatskins last year We're
1 1-2 million dollars. France. Russia,
the United Kingdom, Turkey in Europe
and Turkey in Asia, Arabia, China,
southern Africa, Argentina and Mexico
also contribute literally to the supply
of goatskins to make up the % mil
lion dollars worth of this product
brought into the United States an
nually.
The farmers Of the United States are
apparently making no effort to reap
any part of this golden harvest for
themselves. The census of 1900 show
ed the total number of goats in the
United States to be less than millions
In number, and when 1t is understood
that the skins of probably 20 million
goats We're required to make the %

New York, Sept. l -Menaced by
a disease which baffled the best
medical skill of the island. the
health department officials Of Cuba
have appealed to the authorities of
Columbia University and Jefferson
Medical College of Philadelphia for
aid in determining the nature Of
the affiiction.
The most eminent pathologists
and bacteriologists of these institu-
tions are working, says the World,
in conjuction with the medical au-
'thoritles of the Marine hospital
and public health department of
the United States governmentin an
effort to determine the nature of the
disease. Ali details of the inyesti...
CATION are refused.
The disease in many of it's symp-
toms resembles bubonic plague, but
it is said to be more swift in its
progress and more deadly in its
effect. 1t first appeared some
months ago in the isolated town Of
Daiquri, province of Santiago. Men
employed in the iron mines in that
were affected. The disease
did not yield to treatment and the
mortality was greater than in yell
low fever or any kindred disease.
The Inhabitants became panic
stricken and an American steel
company with large interests there
took up the matter. References to
the New York and Philadelphia ex-
perts followed.
Description of the disease furn-
ished by the Cuban physicians
shows that it presents the worst
symptoms of yellow fever, black
fever and spotted fever. The pa
tient is Usually dead a few
hours after first complaining of ILL.,
ness and turns a bright yellow after
death.
1t is in the death that the disease
presents its most horrible phase. The
victims pulse rushes to 100, heart
beat which is deemed almost i'm
possible by ply ysicians of expert
ence. The respiration counts So.
These organic disturbanc- s, with
temperature of 100 and 108, do not
cause instant death. but the high
fever generated soon burns out life.
The disease always attacks per-
sons who have suffered from inter.
mittent malgrial fever.

and then went back to Portland by


another road.
Mr.. Kennedy has wife and six
small children, residing in this
place. For several months he has
been without a regular charge and
bas had but little income from
preaching. He has been trying to
locate parties on timber claims over
the state for some time.
Mrs. r. Wagner, an estimabla
German woman, residing on the
next block to the Kennedy home.
alleges that shortly after 2 in the
morning she heard noise over at
the minister's house, as of some one
moving about. Her husband states
that this was about 2:15, which
gives plenty of time in which to
cover the distance from the Warren
residence.
The Warren family are highly re-
spected, educated and people with
no prejudicss. Miss Warren's brav-
cry in trying to tear the mask from
the intruder's face shows that she
was not 30 excited but that she
could make fairly judicial exam
ination of the man who -tole the
money, watch and ri,g>. Aside
from this her high sense .nf honor
would not permit her TO wrong
another, and her ideas as to whom
the robber is have weight with the
community.
Mr.. Kennedy asserts his inno-
cence and says he will be able to
prove an alibi. He was very cool
after the effects of the arrest wore
away, and states that he is very
much surprised.
Justice Bagely fixed his bail at
$1,000. Kennedy was unable to
find bondsmen and will spend the
night in Jail.
Mr.. Kennedy is from 35 to 40
years of age, probably 5 feet or
inches in height, we'll made, but
not very heavy, dark brown eyes,
dark hair inclined to curl. Ha
wears a black suit, sack coat, and
black derby. He is finely educated
and uses the best of language. He
claims to be expecting money from
the Esast, and has been talking of
buying valuable property here.
1t is said that he has made liberal
use of his credit.
A peculiar feature of the whole
affair is that Miss Warren and her
father were great admirers of Mr..
Kennedy and made spirited at
tempt some months ago to have
him retained as pastor Of the Con-,
gregational church for another year.
Albany. Or, Sept. 2.-J. n.
Kennedy who was arrested for rob-
berry in Hillsboro, was pastor of the
Congregational church in Albany
for about two years. He came here
from California in September, 1900.
Mr.. Kennedy, who is graduate of
Harvard University, is a fluent
talker with pleasant address and
his congregation was large at first.
But his career in Albany was mete-
oric and after the first few months
Kepnedy's success was submerged
in his growing unpopularity. But
little over year after coming to
Albany Mr.. Kennedy lost the last
vestige of influence by his identifi-
cation with the Anti-Sa1oon League.
His congregation dwindled away
until he spoke to empty seats. Ken
nedy was president of the Anti-Sa-
loon League. was active to the ex-
tent of radicalism and many ar
rests were made during the crusade
under bis leadership.
In the fall of 1902 Kennedy NOV

pulpit in Hillsboro. He left Alba
ny, it is said, indebted in various
sums to number of people.

The factory is located at Bandon,

MINISTER BURGLAR
CHARGED WITH ENTERING
A HILLsBoRo HOME AND
ROBBING INMATES
Minister Fails to Find Bondsmen
and Goes to Jail-Frequent
Visitor at the House--His
Career in Albany.

Hillsboro, Or, Sept. la bold
and partially successful robbery in
a dwelling house was com omitted
here just outside the city limits this
morning at 2 o'clock. A thief en-
tered the upper story of E. H. War
ren's house, went into an apartment
occupied by Mrs. F. B. MacKinder,
of St. Helena, CAL, a guest at the
Warren place, and robbed her of 81
in cash, watch valued at 800
and two valuable rings. The rob-
ber was cool and collected, but ov-
erlooked $50 in currency whi-h
was wrapped up in handkerchief,
and which was in the same hand
satchel from switch he took the
money he made way with.
Mrs. MacKinder was first awaken
ed by q cloth, saturated with chlor.
oform, being thrust in her face.
She screamed and aroused Miss
Minnie Warren, who came into the
room and insisted on remaining
there. The noise awakened Mr..
Warren, who slept on the ground
floor, and who came up stairs arm
ed with rock. The burglar told
Mr.. Warren to put the missile on
the floor, and when he did not COM
ply with orders, fred shot in his
direction.
The three inmates of the bouse
were in fear of their lives and were
unable to make much resistance.
Miss Warren was very active how
ever, and at one time nearly un-
masked the offender. She is posi-.
tive that she knew The nan, and
has described his clothing and the
hat he wore. Identification was
not entirely impossible, as the burg
lar had lighted a lamp to assist in
his work. The current descrip-
ton is that the thief wore dark
suit, a dark Derby hat, and black
hose, having removed bis ehoes,
He was of medium height and build
and had brown eyes.

The ladies' were in position to
recognize the voice, although there
was an attempt to disguise it.

Portland and that he first came to
this city directly after the robbery

A CLIFTON STPIKE.

It remains for Mrs. George E. Ste
 vens to discover the latest find on the
 Home Copper company's property. The
 crosscut on the Lillian had advanced
 fifty feet from the main tunnel, when a
 body of rock which appeared to be rot
 ten porphyry heavily stained and i'm
 pregnated with manganese and brown
 iron was encountered. After cross
 cutting this matter to a change of
 ground, no attention having been paid
 to it, Mrs. Stevens banned some of it
 and got a long string of gold in the pan. Superintendent Molder and MT. Stevens made an investigation and found that the main vein had been crosscut for a portion at least of its width. and a general sample for twelve feet at the bottom of the tunnel gives
 S12.35 per ton gold, which appears to be
 absolutely free and susceptible of amalgamation without treatment. The vein crosses the crosscut tunnel in the form of an inverted V, truncated and from the dip of its walls, both of which are hanging, at a depth oi fifty feet | would be forty feet wide. It is blind | ledge. as it's apex must be, from it's formation, at least eighty feet. MT. Stevens was so elated about the find that he at once came down to tell the Era about it.-Clifton Era.
