GREAT SALE GOES ON.
The Peoples Warehouse Monster
Sale to Continue Two Weeks In
stead of One, as Stated in Saturday
Evenings Ad.

The success of this great clearing
sale has been phenomenal, entirely
due to the extremely low prices made
on desirable goods. Another two
weeks of such rapid selling will prac-
tically clear this great store of all
winter goods, and enable the Peoples
Warehouse to display what will un-
questionably be the largest and most
magnificent assortment of new spring
merchandise ever shipped to the In
land Empire-an assortment of high
class merchandise that would do
credit to any metropolitan store of
the large cities of the Eastern States.
The Peoples Warehouses system of
buying in Eastern markets and SELL
ing in large quantities enables it to
sell at absolutely the lowest prices,
and at the same time always display
the latest and newest fancies, stimuli
taneously with New York and Bos-
ton.
Altogether, the Peoples Warehouse
is considered not only of great bene-
fit to Pendleton, but can be pointed
to with pride by any citizen, as a
thoroughly up-to-date, metropolitan
store worthy of Pendleton.
Remember this great clearing sale
continues two weeks more.

DRIFT INTO INSANITY.
Tendency Among Life Prisoners in Con-
necticut Discussed,

Hartford, Conn, Dee. 30.-A tendency
to insanity among life prisoners Is
pointed out by the directors Of the
state prison in their annual report to
Governor Roberts yesterday. The re-
port says
'Fhe ratio of life convicts continues
TO be commandingly higher than may
be found in most American prisons. OF
the 473 prisoners undergoing confne.
ment, more than IL per cent Of the
entire number are serving life sentences.
The periods Of their individual confine-
ment range from few months to as
years, and the aggregate length OF inn
prisonenent served by them foots up
approximately 743 years a striking and
melancholy total, which IL equivalent
to nearly % generations Of human life
and which, translated into terms Of his
tory, would cover a span Of years be-
ginning more than half century prior
to the signing Of the Magma Charta at
Runnymede III 1918 and extending TO
the close Of the war between Russia and
Japan.
with just enough exceptions to prove
the rule, this large body Of life prisoners
is orderly and well behaved, although
not unnaturally the tendency of them
to drift into insanity is much greater
than obtains among other convicts.s

" BURIED ALIVE FAKIR
EXPLAINS HIS METHODS
Food and Water Lowered to Him in
His Underground Coffin at
Night--Got 81 a Day

St. Louis, Mo-, Dec. 30. George Haus-
man, who last summer mystified hum
dreds Of persons by living for six days
III coffin underground supposedly
without food OF water, explains the hoax
that was praetised by the so-called mes
merists who employed him.
According to Hausman, he was never
really unconscious, and when placed in
the ground WAS constantly supplied with
fresh air through tube reaching down
to the coffin, ostensibly for the purpose
Of giving morbid crowds a view Of his
body lying IN the casket. BY an ingen-
iously constructed arrangement Of the
coffin lid il could be moved within the
large box in which the casket was plac-
ed, and faod and water were nightly low
cred through the tube.
He said it required great patience to
lie there six days, but that there was no
danger Or great discomfort attached to
the task. He received 81 day for
performing his part Of the deception.

For two years Capt, Amundsen regis

This data will be submitted 10 the lords

There are few men in the world who

Amundsen's soundings Ia the north

could be ascertained, there is no great
depth at any place in the passage, al

POPE WILL BE STRICT.
Applicants for Audiences to Be Carefully

Rome, Dec. so.-The Vatican author
tiles have received circumstances from
several American bishops against the
audience granted By the Pope to Amer
leans who, in the opinion Of these bish-
ops. were not worthy Of the honor,
which, it is added, created dissatisfac-
ton among the faithful.
The Pope has also been informed that
among the persons presented TO him a
few DAYS ago was an American woman
Who had been divorced. This irritated
the pontiff who declared that such q
presentation mHst moi occur again.
The officials Of the Vatican are also
recalling that two Americans recently re-
fused to kneel when the Pope appeared,
and the persons who have authority in
these matters have been ordered to be
more strict at decision upon applications
from Americans for audiences Of the
Pope. American applicants In future

Dawes to Organize the Middle West for
Him in 1905

Washington, Dec. 30.--yiee Presi-
dent Fairbanks political activity is once
more arousing concern among those in
Washington that do not favor him as
the Republican nominee for president
IN 1908. The latest development Is the
selection of former Controller Charles
@. Dawes of Chicago as the Fairbanks
preventative In the middle west.
Mr. Dawes is said to be expected to
organize the middle west for the In
diana man. He has had extensive ex-
perience IN politics and is an able or
ganizer. Mr. Fairbanks, in looking afar
into the future, is understood to have
discerned evidences Of much activity on
Mr. Roosevelt's part in breaking ground
IN various states for Root or Taft, or
whoever, as the time draws near, he
may look on as fitting material for his
successor.
With Foraker practically out of it
and Secretary Shaw held down to treas
ury duties for good while longer. Mr..
Fairbanks thought the time was oppor-
tune to bestir himself.

A RELIABLE MEDICINE.
An Opinion That Should Be Of Interest
to Every Person in Barre.

SO many patent medicines and adver-
tised cures are now offered to the pub
lie that our readers should be glad to
know the opinion Of man who has
spent years in handling them and profit
by his advice.
Our local druggist, Mr.. Wells Of the
firm Of Rickert " Wells, says. After
having sold drugs, aud all kinds and
makes Of medicines for SO many years,
naturally we have learned something
about them their value and power to
cure and we want to say to the readers
OF the Times that il the people of Barre
only realized the real curative and
strength-creating power OF our cod liver
oil preparation, Vinol we would not
have clerks enough in our store to fill
the demand for it,
Continued Mr.. Wells: @You see, Vinol
is not patent medicine, and it actually
contains all the Iife-giving, body build
ing and strengthening properties of
cod liver oil actually taken. from fresh
Gods. livers, but without drop Of the
svstem-clogging, nauseati1g oil. Vinol
makes rich, red blood, aud tones up and
inyigorates every organ in the body
I'm the strongest manner we ilnhesi-
tatingly endorse and guarantee vinol to
increase the appetite, cure stomach tron-
bles, give strength and renewed vitality
to the aged, build up puny children and
rundown persons, make the weak
strong, cure chronic coughs, colds and
bronchitis or refund to the purchaser
every dollar paid for Il.
This shows our faith in yinol, and
we can only ask the people OF Barre
to try NinoI ON our guarantee" Rickert
Il Wells, Druggists.
