Baths of Ancient Times.

"Did the middle age battle" said an
antiquary ''Is it true that in medl-
eval times bathing was unknown, that
for 1000 years in Europe there was
not a man or woman who ever took
q bath?"
NO" said the old man vehemently.
mo, thank heaven, this is not true.
Man was fairly clean in the middle
ages. 1t is a libel to say he did not
battle. For | have looked this matter
up and find literary records of medi-

Queen Isabella, wife of Edward H.,
there is a charge for repairs Of

Oregon Wool Sales.

More than 100000 pounds of wool
of the 1905 clip has already been sold
in the Wallowa country at about 16
cents a pound, figure which makes
the sheep business a highly remuner-
alive industry. These prices and the
willingness of buyers to bind them
selves to take the wool in practically
unlimited quantities positively as
sure a prosperous year in at least
one of Oregon's great industries.

CARPENTERS RECEIVE INJURIES
ScaffoId Breaks Beneath Weight
of Four Laborers.

While engaged in work on the roof
Of the new barn on George Eckstein's
place, five miles southwest of this city
inSigel township, an accident occurred
through the breaking of a scaffold
which precipitated four Of the car
penters, some twenty feet to the ground.
The laborers that were injured were
AugustHoffmann, J Ohm Soukup, Frank
Holm and Andrew Grau. Although
all were slightly injured, John Soukup
and Andrew Grau sustained the
severest injuries, the former breaking
two ribs and the latter splitting the
flesh on his nose. Both men are
xnder the care of a doctor and at the
present writing were recovering
rapidly.
Later it was discovered that the
scaffold upon which the men were al
work was poor piece OF timber, con.
tanning number of open holes, one
of which started the breaking of the
scaffold as the weight of the four mer
bore down upon it.

Cold Bold Strikes Barn.

During the severe electrical storm
that passed over this vicinity early
Thursday morning, cold bolt Of
lightning struck the large barn of
Joseph Brandt, a prominent farmer in
Lafayette township. Hearing the
crash as the bolt struck the roof of the
building, Mr.. Brandt ran with haste
to the barn and discovered that two
Of his valuable horses had been killed
by the lightning besides damaging the
barn slightly The course of the cold
bolt was very peculiar. Coming
from a point in the roof diagonally
toward the team of horses, the bolt
passed between an adjoining stall of
horses without injuring the animals in
the least then seemingly changing its
course and striking the unfortunate
horses. Mr.. Brandt estimates his loss
at about $3.50.

RISE OF JAPANESE NATION SURE
Rev. Geo. AIbrecht Speaks Of the
War in the East.

In place of the regular sermon at the
Congregational church Sunday even
ing, Rev. Geo. Albrecht, who was
supplying the pulpit, consented to tell
of the war that is being waged in the
east and of the causes and results as
he was able to see them. He is but
recently from that. country having
spent the past seventeen years as a
missionary in the Island of Japan.
He talked for nearly an hour of the
early history and superstitions that
were interviewer in the national char
acter of the Japanese people and that
went to build up the nation as unit
and make it the power it has so recent
ly shown itself to be.
The most striking point he brought
out in his discourse is the fact of the
lack of ndividualism-th teaching
that each is for each other and all are
for the welfare of the whole, the in
terest being communal. This teaching
is interviewer into the entire fabric of
the national life and explains the
tenacity with which they appear to
cling to those things that appeal to
national pride. They are all the
children of the sun goddess and she is
the nation and when they fight for any
thing they fight for their religion, and
nation fighting for its religion is a
desperate and a dangerous foe.
The discourse was interesting from
beginning to end and was full of in
formation and instruction and should
have had large hearing. Mr.. AL.
brecht believes that Japan is destined
to become the teacher of China, as
China was once the instructor o.
! japan.

ASSOCIATION PLANS FOR FAIR.
Agricultural Association Takes on
New Life.
Plan Three-Day's Show With At
tractiye Features.
Sunday Will be Included in Days
to be Celebrated.

For some time the secretary and
president of the Brown County Agri-
cultural association have been en-
deavoring to get enough members
present at a meeting SO that business
could betransacted and officers elected,
but it was not until Friday night, when
the stock holders had been informed
that there was move on foot to dis
pose of the property. This had the
desired effect and the meeting resulted
in the election of Ferd. Crone, presi-
dent; j. Klossner, vice president;
Adolph Burmeister, secretary and F.
II. Behnke, treasurer.
It was decided that there would be a
fair and that an attempt would be made
TO make itwhatitshouldb be. Mr.. Crone,
who has been one of the most active
members of the association and has
deprecated all the past attempts to
palm off a pumpkin show for the real
thing, has decided that if he stays with
the association it must give the people
value received, and SO has signifed
his intention to use his best efforts to
have real fair this year.
The meeting was heartily in favor of
continuing the association and making
at attempt to get some attractions here
that would pay the people to come and
see and it was left with the board of
directors to manage the affairs. There
will be three days beginning on Fri
day and continuing over Sunday and
during the time there will be horse
races, if it is possible to SO arrange
it..
VIM. Pfaender, who has been secre-
tary for the two years resigned and his
place is filled by the election of Adolph
Burmeister and any information de-
sired by people who will want to take
part in the fair in any manner may be
secured from him.
There is no reason why the county
should not have a very fine fair this
year. There is every encouragement
for it, and the farmers and others
should figure on entering some Of their
products and keeping this in mind
should watch their fields with view
to securing the best they have and ex.
hibiting it at the fair.
There is no doubt but that there will
be spirit in the enterprise this year
that has been lacking in many of the
more recent fairs. The grounds are
to be fixed up, the race track improved
and the whole thing put in excellent
shape. ..=-..>.... ....--
Many cities in the state would be
glad to have the grounds and the op
portunity that is offered to this place
to have fair and would fill the place
every year and this city should bt
alive: to the opportunity that is offered
and not only help with their~money
they always do that but arrange tt
attend and have their families attend

that are presented for the instruction
and entertainment of the people anC
