II realized that must give up the
harmful indulgence In coffee. but I
felt the necessity for n hot table drink.

"Onc day ran across very SEN

Opening Texas State Fair.

DALLAS, Tex, Sept 30.-The Texas
State fair opened today in the most
suspicious manner. The principal
feature of the day was the dedication
Of the new auditorium building, which
had been erected since last year with
an outlay of 100000. The ceremon-
les Of the dedication were conducted
by the Dallas Commercial club, in
connection with the various civic,
fraternal and commercial organizations
of the city. The principal address was
delivered by S. w. T. Lanthan, who
is also the first honorary vice president
of the Fair association. President c.
A. Heating of the State Fair associa-
ton and Mayor Bryan T. Barry of
Dallas responded to the address of the
governor. The governor was greeted
by chorus of 200 school children,
accompanied by Seymour's Military
band. During the dedication cere-

NEW YORK, Oct. Emma Gold

Under an assumed name, the devotee
Of anarchy has opened rooms on Broad

of her head, wearing heelless shoes
and plain garb, she is like the ordinary
hairdresses as the new woman" is
like a Broadway show girl.
She first became a nurse, but believ-
ing that nurses should work for chart
ty, and rousing suspicious as to her
identity by her vigorous utterances on
the subject, she was forced to leave the
profession.

HOMER HAllOCk TELLS WHAT
LEWIS AND CLARK FAIR HAS
DONE.
Has Been the Means of Attracting
Thousands of Visitors From the
Eastern States.

Homer H. Hallock, special represen-
tative of the Lewis and Clark exposi-
tionwasin the city Saturday working
upinterest in the Walla WallaDay
excursion October2.
Mr.. Hallock recently returned from
a two months trip through Wyoming,
Utah, visiting all the principal cit
les in those states. Speaking Of his
work in that territory Mr.. Hal
lock said: "The Lewis and Clark ex-
position mas done more to advertise
Portland, Oregon and the northwest
than all efforts in that direction COM
bined for the last 20 years. I speak
advisedly as to this. At Denver,
through which gateway at least $4,000
exposition visitors passed, I had an
opportunity to get an honest opinion
as to how fair visitors were impressed
and took advantage of it. There was
absolutely but one opinion. Everybody
talked Of the fair as gem of matchless
natural beauty, of Oregon and Wash
ington as a marvellous country, anly
just beginning to be developed and
destined to be great states, the richest
sections of the United States.
Il heard more boosting for Wash
ington and Oregon during the few days
spent at Denver and Colorado Springs
than have heard here at home in 20
years. 1t seems as though we of the
northwest do not realize what won
derful country we are living in; but
eastern people do, and how they do
shout about it.
And this is where we will get great
results, due wholly to the western
worlds fair, which will go into history
as the most successful exposition that
has ever been held. 1t has been the
means Of bringing tens of thousands Of
people to the northwest; they nave seen
our country and became deeply inter-
ested. Thousands are coming back
Millions of new capital comes here to
be invested in industries and home
building. I am told that the transcon-
tinental lines of railroad are pre-
pairing for the largest immigration to
the northwest during the next IL
months that has ever been known This
all on account Of interest created
through the Lewis and Clark eXposi-
ton. The whole western country will
reap the benefits. The state of Wash
ington has contributed largely to it's
success and will reap a rich harvest as
a result"

To Perish of Fever.

NEW ORLEANS. Oct. 2.-Unless
the Italians on Point Celeste planta-
ton, thirty miles below Plaquemine
parish, allow the State health boards
physicians to fumigate their houses
and furnish free medical attention
the health authorities will abandon
operations there and force the fever
to run it's course among the refractory
foreigners.
The Italians operate the plantations
for themselves with several negro Ia
borers, and as they have threatened to
kill the first medical inspector who
goes there, the state board has been
unable to check infection.
The board proposes placing quaran-
tine guards around Point Celeste plan
ltation to prevent all persons from 60
ing and coming from that place. In
this way it is hoped to starve the
Italians into submission, as thirty OF
the forty Italians have taken yellow
fever and six have died, leaving ten
for the disease to prey upon.
