you are too far away from them In a

Museums. galleries and palaces are

tidy little sum I'm entrance fees when
the expenses are counted up at last.
To sum up. 90 day Is a liberal al
lowance for living expenses. for they
win not rise to this sum I'm cities where
a long sojourn is made, and SO the
greater cost OF short stands will he

all European countries Offer special cut
railroad rates for a number OF tours
during the summer months. Informa-
ton as TO this IS obtainable I'm the bu-
reau OF Information I'm every city rail

ton. ard international routes can also
be covered by their help at a cost less
than that offered by the tourist agen-
ties. Steamer travel is cheaper than
rail-. but the great time demanded
makes the question OF meals serious

with sandwich bought nj a station.
To be able TO avail oneself OF all
these possibilities for saving money

controversy, this can be said that most
of the views expressed about its origin
are right. but only partly 50. Ii is
true the tune is the same as that Of

OF the Dutch reaperS' song "Yonker

A FEW
WORDS ABOUT
JOBPRIN7INC

1t used to be that the quality of
Job Printing did not amount TO
much, so far as success in business
WAS concerned. Any business man
or woman could get along fairly well
without it. But We live in another
and altogether different era.
Today it is necessary for business
people to have neat stationery if they
intend to occupy prominent place
among their competitors.
When you see a piece of job print
ing crowded and the type damned
too close together, with dirty-looking
ink and finger marks smeared over
1t, on a low grade of paper, it doesn't
speak we'll for the firm which uses it.
In fact, YOU don't have the same
opinion of that place as you have of
the man whose stationery is clearly
printed with good ink on the best
grade Of paper.
The quality of stationery reflects
the standing of ones business. 1t is
therefore duty you owe to yourself
to have good printing.

Runaways Would BE Jockies.

Lured by the giammor of a race
track life, three north side youngsters
left home Saturday morning, and
they are somewhere on the road to
California, the land of promise to-
ward which they are heading.
The boys are George Pickett, IL
years old, son of j. Pickett, of 407
Effie avenue; Willie Neill. 12 years
old, son of Robert Neill, a mining
man of 1926 Cora avenue, and Earl
Elliott, is years old, living on Nettie
avenue. All go to the Emerson
school.
They became infatuated with racing
during the interstate fair, when they
took part in the boys pony race.
Since then the height of their ambi-
ton has been to be a "jock." They
told the youngsters of the neighbor-
hood that they had offers from a race
horse man to ride for him. 1t is pre-
sumed they are trying to overtake the
fellow.-Spokesman- Review.

tence was the loss of honor for the
remainder of her natural life. The
details of the trial were revolving i'm
the extreme, proving the woman to
be monster of iniquity.
The story of her career is one of
the most revolving in the criminal
annals of the empire. It appeared
from the evidence given at the trial
that she was born in Hanover in 1859
her maiden name being Berkefeld.
After a somewhat checkered career
in her native province. where several
prosecutions and imprisonments for
illegal operations and imposture had
rendered it impossible for her to
carry on her calling of midwife, she
moved to Hamburg, renting an ex-
pensive residence in one of the fash
ionable thoroughfares Here she es-
tablished herself as professional
foster mother.
Her method of procedure was to
insert in both German and foreign
papers prominent advertisements, in
which the adoption of children born
out of wedlock was promised in re-
turn for a single monetary payment.
These notices brought her many eli
ents from the fashionable, as well as
from the humble, ranks of society.
For instance. 1t is stated that for taxi
ing over child whose parents be-
longed to the highest circles in the
town of Hanover she received a fee
of ri OOO in addition fn
money. AT the same time she in
serted in the papers other advertise
ments to the effect that "young
and beautiful girl' appealed to no.
ble"minded gentlemen for temporary
pecuniary assistance, and forced her
own illigitimate daughter Paula,
into improper relations with the men
Elements. She visited London, and
the names of persons said to be resi-
dent in the English metropolis were
mentioned in the course of the trial
just closed.
1t was further alleged against her,
though on this count she has been
acquitted, that she attempted to poi
sui iiSi huoDtHu, WHO lOullu leT pro-
ceedings not to his liking. One of
the children adopted by her is said
to have been the child of an English
woman of title. OF the children
whom she was paid to take, those
whose age made the proceeding prof
liable were corrupted. Others she
poisoned with morphine, throwing
their bodies into the Elbe, or burning
them in her kitchen fireplace. The
crime of infanticide was brought
home to her in no fewer than five
specific cases, and how far that num-
ber was from completing the grue-
some tale of her iniquities there is
no means of knowing. A dramatic
feature of the trial was the appear
ance of the woman's husband and
daughter as witnesses against her.

Gophers Destroy Alfalfa.

Much complaint is being made by
some of the ranchers east of Baker
City and few west of here that the
alfalfa fields are being despoiled by
colonies of gophers A Frenchman,
who has had experience in Europe
with this rodent, explains that 1t is
easy to get rid of them by putting
a few Jumps of carbide in their holes
and flooding the field with water. The
gases generated kill the rodents quick
ly and without danger of poison to
other animals. About a dollars worth
of the chemical will take care of an
entire field, and few pals of water,
poured into the holes after dropping
in the chemical will do the business,

Frank Farnsworth, manager of the

that there will be shipped out and
milled in the Heppner Touring mill
this season 225,O00 bushels of wheat.
This exceeds the shipments of any
previous year more than 1000
bushels. A considerable portion OF
the increase is due to larger acreage
than in former years. yet almost as
