Beauty is born in the blood. Beauty
is more than Skin deep" it is blood
deep. When the blood is tainted by
disease the flesh will fell it and the
skin will show it. Sallow or muddy
compilations, pimples blotches, and
eruptions are only the surface signs
of impure blood. Face washes,
lotions, complexion powders, may
palliate the evils but they cannot
cure the disease. The only cure is TO
cleanse the blood of the poisonous
matter which is cause of the outbreak
in the flesh and skin. Impure blood
can be absolutely purified by the use
| of Dir. Pierce's Golden MedicalaD
ery. Its effect on flesh and skin is
I marked. Sores heal and disappear

its natural color. The eyes brighten
and sparkle, the. whole body is radiant

4 lated the result of the enunerators'
work and we are able to present the
figures below. Allowing that some
errors may have been made by the
enumerators and many fact suppress
ed by the people, there Is evidence
aplenty that popular impressions are
wrong about some things. On-nahu,
perhaps the majority Of people would
say that the unmarried women OUT

are ten less single women than men;
vet the females outnumber the males

the Girls outnumber the boys by 2
onlv: while on the total number OF
children of all ages the boys outnum-
Der the girls by 6. There are 1913
persons who cannot read and write
English, But deducting 202 children
under wears of age we get only III
iliterates which includes all the
foreign contingent, some of whom
NAV be able to read and write Their
native language 1t is,only proper to
say in conclusion that the figures
presented include those people living
within the corporation limits only.
There is a considerable number living
in the east and west end section of
the town, who to all intents and pur-
poses belong to the town, but who
are enumerated with the population
of the township.

wAsCo COUNTY EXECUTIONS.
Historical Resume Given by the Hood
River Glacier.

AS the time for the execution of
Williams draws near (provided the
supreme court does not grand a re-
hearing) the question as to the num-
ber of such executions in Wasco coun-
ty has arisen. John Mitchell assert
ing to the Hood River Glacier that
two executions of white men have
taken place in this county since he
came here in the spring of '65. The
Glacier, however, states that the
hanging of Dedman took place in '64.
This is an error. 1t occurred jusl
south of the Fritz home in February
of 1865, he having murdered three
men of the Meeks party when on the
way from McKenzie's pass to Canyon
City, the object being to secure their
money.
The second was Cook. who was
hanged in the yard of the old court
house, which Is now the city Jail, in
October of 1878. for the murder of
George Craig. Both men were con-
fined in Jail for minor offenses, when
Craig gave evidence against Cook, and
securing a razor in some unaccounta-
BILE manner, Cook cut his companions
throat. killing him instantly. Many
residents of The Dalles still remem-
Der that awful execution and yet
there were those curious enough to
climb on top of houses and sheds that
they might witness it.
Earlier residents tell of the hang
ing of four Indians in 1861, who were
convicted of killing a white man near
Tygh valley. This execution occurred
under an old pine tree which stood on
the vacant lot almost opposite the res
idence of John Marden, and was wit
messed by many.
The people of Wasco county may
congratulate themselves that but one
more can meet such n fate within its
borders. Indeed, Dalles people regret
the fact that the law providing for
executions taking place at the peni-
tentiary was not in effect previous to
the murder for which Williams may
hang.

in the recent eighth grade examina-
tions was completed by the board of
examiners late yesterday afternoon.
There were 33 pupils who took the

that nothing lower than 10 per cent
shall be made in any one subject. All
of the class here made averages of
over 80 per cent, but two fell below

will have to be re-examined in those
branches.
The highest average made by any
member of the class was 95 2-9 per
cent, and was made by Cora Warner.
Several others are said to have made
averages of 80 per cent, and the gen.
eral average of all was slightly over
80 per cent.
