Montreal, May l7.--It liz announced
that the Dominion government will
have an Ice breaker built in England
this summer for the purpose of trying
to keep the st. Lawrence open later
during the fall and also to break UP the
Ice earlier in the spring. Il is caleu-
lated that the shipping season at Mon
treal could be heightened bysNE least
a fortnight In the fall and that about
the same time could be gained by
breaking up the Ice formation at Cape
Rouge In the spring. II the experiment
proves successful, another and larger
boat will be built and stationed at
Quebec in order to make the service
more efilcacious.

Grand Representatives Association
gave banquet of a social nature. A
great number of the delegates were in
attendance. Tonight the great banquet
of the Muscovites takes place at the
same hostelry. During the afternoon
a number of the delegates, together
with their families, made a journey to
the bar on the launch Fox, returning
to Astoria highly pleased with the con-
vention city.
This is the first time l have ever
seen the Pacific" said a delegate from
Pendleton, "and l shall always remem-
ber Astoria because of the trip l have
had in this little boat. / hesitated at
first about coming to the convention,
but now am glad that came"
Il have learned more about the sal
mon industry today than / ever knew
before" said another, "and the spirit
of the people Of Astoria toward myself
and the other delegates is so cordial
that if it will help them for me to eat
salmon l intend to place a standing
order for that commodity with my
home grocery"
While the Rebekahs were not in ses-
sion the ladies amused themselves in
various ways. Some so marvelled at
the mystery Of the tide and listened
with admiration while their more for
tunate sisters, who have lived near the
sea, explained.
1t was estimated last evening that
fully $50 odd Fellows were in the city.
The convention is one of the most har-
monious and enthusiastic that has been
held in years.

That such Is the case has been con-

Prof. Unna, the noted European skin

To Keep Young.

What is old age. anyway? Scientists
tell us It is a kind Of atrophy OF the
tissues and organs connected with the
changes in the blood vessels. To coun-
teract this tendency we must supply
the tissues and organs with healthy
blood. Life, therefore, depends to a
great extent upon our ability to keep
the circulatory system I'm healthy
condition. The best methods of doing
this may be briefly summarized as fol-
lows:
Take plenty Of exercise in the out
door air, preferably In the country,
away from the city, says What to Eat.
The best exercise is a long walk in
the country, and the benefit of such a
walk is increased II only very small
quantity OF fluid and food be taken
during the walk. A good lunch for such
a walk is a sandwich and an organge.
This walk in the open air not only
enriches the blood with oxygen, but 1t
strengthens the skin and nervous sys-
TEN, and through this the digestive
system.
Great moderation in the amount OF
food, and especially Of flesh food, should
be practised, particularly by old peo-
pie. There is no longer any doubt that
moderate meat eating after the 'merid-
Ian Of life" is reached Is conducive to
Longevity.
Drink distilled water and plenty OF
IL after the age of 40 years is reached.
Most water is too hard" for drinking
purposes. The lime and other alkalies
and salts in It tend to harden the arter-
les and tissues, and that means "old
age" Moreover, soft" or distilled
water is dissolvent and tends to abb
sorb the poisons and gases in the body.

The above officers of the grand lodge,
]. o. 0. F., were chosen yesterday aft
ernon at the business meeting which
terminated shortly before o'clock. The
majority Of the officers were elected
with little or no opposition. w. N
Green, the newly-elected grand patri-
arch, thanked the delegates for the
honor bestowed upon him.
Delegates who arrived by boat and
train at an early hour this morning had
no difficulty in finding accommodations
and were on hand promptly when the
encampment was called to order. The
greatest harmony and good will pre-
vailed, and after social hour the dele
gates settled down to business with a
determination. to get 1t finished and
enjoy themselves.
The interesting feature of the morn
ing session was the report Of the grand
scribe, b. =. Sharon. The report showed
that there were AZ encampments in the
state; that the membership December
81, 1902, was 1882, and that the mem
bership December 81, 1903, was 2239,
the gain having been 257. The reports
of all the other officers were likewise
of interest to members of the encamp-
ment. After hearing the reports the
encampment adjourned until after din
ner. Upon reassembling the election
of officers was taken up, and at

markable debate between DIR. James M.

larry committee, which finds that the
conference has no executive authority
to district episcopay, that is, to sub
stitute the diocesan for the present
itenerant form Of residency and ad-
ministration bishops.

an effort to get on the seat fired a
shot which was apparently accidental
and the horses Jumped. Gran piled

OF Oregon yesterday convened in this
city. made preparations for the bus,
times to come, and adjourned late II
the Afternoon to make ready for the
entertainment and dance given last
night. Members OF Gateway lodge OF
Astoria estimate that between $50 and
500 Rehekah delegates are In the city
for the convention.
The assembly is holding forth at
Pythian castle. There the convention

following officers being in attendance:
President. Lizzie Howell OF Oregon
City: vice president, Nora Barnett OF
Athena: warden, Ella Fraser OF Flu
gene: secretary. Ora Cosper OF Dallas;
treasurer. Ella Harding OF LaGrande.
The morning session was entirely
taken up with the comforting OF the
assembly degree. About 100 ladies and
so gentlemen were thus decorated. and
by the item the ceremony was con-
cluded the dinner hour had arrived.
Adjournment was then taken until aft
ernoon, when the standing committees
were appointed by the president. The
committees lost no time In getting ito
work and many OF them will be able
to make reports at today's session.
The report of Secretary Cosper shows
that there were 1Os lodges Of Re-
bekahs In the state December 81, 1902.
while on May /, 1904 there were 1I9
lodges, an increase OF i3. The num-
Der of brother members OF the order

number of sister members 4422. Dur
ing the year there were initiated $50

ted by card and 23 brothers and S5
sisters reinstated. The number ex-
PEELED dropped, withdrawn and de-
ceased was 26s brothers and AIT sis
ters. The gain in brothers was 800.
and in sisters SIS. a most satisfactory

pense for the year to have been $1.33,

s1.49, and the per capita assets to be
s252.
This morning the session Of the as
sembly will be resumed. The commit
tees will have their reports to present
and the convention will get down to

pressed by members that the election
of officers will not take place until late
this afternoon. The session Of the as
sembly will doubtless last until to-
morrow noon, II the delegates manage
to get through by that time. The ses-
sion is proving most interesting one.
The entertainment given last night
by Beaver lodge Of Odd Fellows and
Gateway lodge Of Rebekahs was even
more thoroughly pleasant than the en-
tertainers had expected. The big pa
vilion was thronged during the night
with Odd Fellows and Rebekahs. The
address of welcome was delivered by
Mayor Surprenant and Byron e. Mil
Ter responded on behalf Of the city's
guests. During the evening refresh
ments were served. and 1t was mid
