Good spirits don't all come from Ken

and all the fine spirits ever made in the
Blue Grass State could not remedy a
bad liver or the hundred-and- lone ill
effects it produces. You can't have
good spirits and bad liver at the same
time. Your liver must be Ia fine condl.

and hopeful, bright OF eye, light OF step,

You can put your liver in fine condition
by using Green's August Flower-the
greatest of all medicines for the livor

dyspepsia or indigestion It has been

mon, hut Are Now Rarely Seen.
Recent mention of the disappearance
of the $3.50 gold piece from circulation
and the premium this coin commands
as a curio has set many to rummaglng
in old pocketbooks and bottoms of cash
boxes and drawers in search of odd or
out of date coins. Some have found n
$3.50 piece. but not many. The SO
piece, once quite common, but always a
sort of curiosity, is oftener found, and
many have specimens of the little gold
coins representing 25 cents and 80
cents which were not minted by the
government and probably have not SO
much gold in them as they represent.
They used TO pass as coin. but were
never i'm general circulation, being so
easily lost that they soon became
scarce one of the handsoinest coin
relics seen is so gold piece bearing
the mint stamp of 1900. 1t is larger
than the present $40 piece. The owner
has 1t hung in band and wears II as
a charm on his watch chain. The own
er says he refused an offer of $3.50 for
this relic The old octagonal $50 pieces
were quite common In California in
early days, when gold dust was largely
used as circulating medium. They
were made of pure gold, and, while
they had not the elegant finish of the
gold coins minted by the government
in these days, many still remember
them as the handsomest coins they ever
saw. Many people now would consider
them handsome on account of the $50

MISTAKEN FOR A DEER.
Portland Minister Shoots Young Man
While Hunting.

Surrounded by the choking smoke OF
a raging forest fire, excited from the
fact that he had just shot his first
deer, lost from the trail and wander
ing about in the binding smoke in a
vain attempt to regain it, Wesley Pyle,
a 19-year-old youth recently from
Iowa. was shot down in the mountains
near Cow Creek, Or, Friday afternoon
by a gun in the hands of the Rev. s.
e. Meminger, pastor of the Mount Ta-
b0r II. E. church of Portland. Pyle
was brought to Portland yesterday
morning and was taken to the Good
Samaritan hospital, where he is rest
ing easily with good chances of COM
plete recovery. The shooting is said to
have been accidental and occurred
while the Rev. Mr.. Meminger and the
three other men in his party were
hunting deer. The weapon was rifle
Of 3O-3O bore.
Forest fires have been raging in the
mountains in southern Oregon for
some time, and the atmosphere is heavy
with the smoke, rendering objects in
distinct at any distance greater than rs
yards. Mr.. Meminger and three other
men were on a vacation trip in this
part Of the country and spent great
deal of their time hunting deer. Fri
day afternoon, while in the brush, Mr..
Meminger saw an object moving at a
distance of 100 yards away, and think
ing it was deer, fired. The next
moment he was Mortified to hear a

large battery in the early morning battle
forced two of the Russian center COM
panies to retire but the heavy artil-
Iery fire Of the Russians. together with
q terrific cross-fire from the Irkutsk
and Yenisei batteries. prevented the
enemy from capturing the vacated po-
sition.
The Japanese with several columns
again tried to force the Russian center
at 10 o'clock but the Russian bat
teries drove them back in confusion.
AT noon the Kosloff battalion at
tackled the japanese positions in the
hills on the Russian left under cover
Of heavy fire from the Third and
Fifth batteries. The japanese met the
attack with shrapnel but the Russian
artillery temporarily silenced the, jap
anese fire and enabled the Kosloff bat
TALON to carry the position. The Jap
anese on1mander-in-chiefs flag ap-
peared on the left, but the Japanese
were driven back by the fierce fire of
the Third battery and the Savitski
battery, the commander of which re-
ceiyed a message Of thanks for his
services.
In the meantime the Kosloff battal-
ion lost so per cent of its men and
called for reinforcements which We're
sent from the Irkutsk and Yenisei bat
Gallons, who fought their way to the
support of their comrades over road
which the soldiers say was literally

Of its men and was forced to retire
with six of it's guns shot to pieces.
These were left on the position use

bIe four other Japanese guns in the
course of the day. The Voronezh bat
TALON was thrown against the Jap
anese position in the afternoon and
got within a 2O-yard range, under a
fierce fire and then took the bayonet
and carried the Japanese position, but
lost half its men and was surrounded
and forced to retire. Later in the aft
srnoon the remnants of the same bat
TALON ambushed and almost wiped out
a whole japanese battalion.
The japanese made a final attempt
to break through the Russian lines at

positions until nightfall. when they re-
tired on Haicheng.
