A NEW INDUSTRY
Opportunity to Secure China Plant
For Canton.

Prospects for locating the Mexican
Angora China Co. here are good if the
citizens who are able to will assist
The plant is at present located at Mi
nerva and their facilities are inadequate
to the large demand for their output,
therefore necessitating the enlargement
of their works. They are the only
decorators of "Angora china" in the
world. 1t is produced in imitation Of
grained wood, such as ash, oak, cherry,
walnut, ETC., in any desirable shade,
and can match the furniture Of any
dining room or bedroom suite. They
guarantee their ware not to craze, an
advantage over other decorated ware,
and skilled labor is required in its pro-
duction.
1t would not only add that much
more to our City's present industries,
but would help to locate other potteries
here, seeking to furnish them their
ware, and thereby adding another IA
nous industry to its present world

effort to retain this industry in its
midst. One of the largest potteries in
this country has also taken up the mat
ter with the company, and are very
anxious to have them to locate with
them, offering them special induce
ments, but through the efforts Of Mr..
Louis N. Ley, who is selling the ware
and who is stockholder in the COM
pany, Canton was given consideration.
Any one wishing information re-
garding this matter can secure the
same by calling on Mr.. Ley, who will
cheerfully furnish it. The plant will
employ from 35 to 40 men at the start,
and will be very good addition to the
city's industries.

HANDLERS

FOUR THOUSAND TO VOTE ON
STRIKE QUESTION.
Revolt Against President Shea Not

Strike Situation Unchanged.

Chicago, Sept. 10.-The freight han
dlers, who have once this summer been
refused an advance in wages by the
railroads entering Chicago, at a meet
ing today appointed committee to
walt upon the managers of the various
roads and ask that the question of a
railroad people refuse to arbitrate the
railroad people refuse to a rbitrate the
matter within "a hours, the men will
then vote by Australian ballot system
on the question of whether to strike or
continue at work under the present
conditions. The freight handlers num-
Der nearly four thousand men. =
All the teamsters' local unions met
today, and the majority of them voted
on the proposition to form new In
ternational organization and break
away from what the discontented call
"Shea's brotherhood" Except in two
cases, the proposition was either fatty
turned down or was allowed to hang
fire until some local more positive in
its opinion took the initiative. The two
locals Wnlcn voted Tor the pfOpoSltlon
were the Ice Teamsters and the Terra
Gotta, Lime and Stone Transfers. They
voted ''yes" on all questions, which
were mainly denunciation Of Shea and
his methods in Office, declaring the
election Of Shea at Philadelphia illegal
and unconstitutional and declaring for
referendum vote for president.
The situation in connection with the
strike of printers in job houses against
the Typothetae is unchanged, and, ex-
cept to those interested in their line in
Chicago, the strike is not noticed. The
union men have a large number of
pickets at work, inducing new men
brought in from other cities by the
employers to leave their places, and
claim to have been very successful SO
! far.

IN THE PULPIT
Vice President Spoke on the Value Of
Prayer.

Norristown, Pa, Sept. 10.-Vice Pres
ident Fairbanks, while sightseeing at
Valley Forge today, with Congressman
Butler and Prof. Phillips, with whom
he came over in an automobile from
Westchester, was invited by Rev. Her
bert Burk to make an address in the
Washington Memorial Episcopal
church. He took for his theme "The
Value Of Prayer" and pointed to the
recognition of its efficacy by Washing
ton, Lincoln and Mckinley during the
wars of their times. He said that this
is distinctively a Christian nation, and
for this reason it is appropriate that a
memorial chapel should be erected on
this sacred spot. His remarks while
impromptu, were replete with patriotic
feeling and thrilled his audience. 1t
was the vice presidents first visit to
the historical camp ground. He ex-
pressed himself as greatly pleased with
what he saw and hoped the good work
begun by the state through its COM
mission would be continued.

THE IDEAL WIFE
Shapes the Destiny of Men-The Influence Of {
Healthy Woman Cannot Be Overestimated.

Seven-eighths Of the
men in this world marry
a woman because she is
beautiful in their eyes
because she has the quail
ties which inspire admira-
ton, respect and love.
There is a beauty in
health which is more at
tractive to men than mere
regularity of feature.
The influence of women
glorious in the possession
of perfect physical health
upon men and upon the
civilization of the world
could never be measured.
Because of them men have
attained the very heights
of ambition ; because of
them even thrones have
been established and de-
stroyed.
Whata disappointment,
then, to see the fair young
wife's beauty fading away
before a year passes over
her head! A sickly, half
dead-and-alive woman,
especially when she is
the mother of a family,
is a damper to all joyous
ness in the home, and a
drag upon her husband.
The costof a wife's con.
stant illness is a serious
drain upon the funds of a
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-02-25

household, and too often all the doc
toring does no good.
If woman finds her energies are
tagging, and that everything tires her,
dark shadows appear under her eyes,
her sleep is disturbed by horrible
dreams if she has backaehe, head
aches, bearing-down pains, nervous
ness, whites, irregularities, or despon-
dency, she should take means to build
her system up at once by tonic with
specific powers, such as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound.
This great remedy for women has
done more in the way of restoring
health to the women of America than
all other medicines put together. 1t is
the safeguard of woman health.
Following we publish, by request, q
letter from young wife.

TlLDEN'S MANSION.
A Puzzling Labyrinch of Vaults Leading to
Places Where EgreSS Was Possible.

a fuZLllng haDyflnCh Oh vaults Leading 10
Places Where EgreSS Was Possible.
Subterranean passages leading from
a secret stair case to a stone vaulted
chamber beneath the old Tilden man
sion in Gramercy Park, have been
brought to light by the contractors en-
gagged in tearing out the structure
which is now under course of trans
formation into home for the National
Arts Club. Many other peculiarities
exist in the mansion which must have
been the conception of Samuel j. Til
den himself, and which have remained
undiscovered up to this day, although
the famous old dwelling has housed
many tenants since his removal to
Greystone in 1879, where he died in
August, 1886.
There isa legend among the old time
residents of the neighborhood that Til
den, who aroused host Of enemies be-
cause of the part he took in the expos
ure of the Tweed ring had fear of
secret assassination and builded his
house accordingly.
The interior of the mansion was a
work of art in its day and is scarcely
equalled in some respects even now by
the palaces OF upper Fifth avenue. In
the work of remodeling now under way
the secret stair cases and under ground
passages were discovered. AS the
builders, like Mr.. Tilden, long since
have joined their fathers, no explana-
tion can be given for the mysterious
passages other than that mentioned by
old neighbors.
1t was found that the building had
three roofs instead of one and that q
tiny stair case led to a secret passage
from the second floor.
Entrance to it was gained by pressing
a knob on a beautifully carved walnut
panel.
In the cellar puzzling labyrinch Of
vaults and passages was found leading
to bricked tunnel, the walls of which
are covered with mold, but which was
otherwise perfectly dry. The tunnel
so far as it could be explored, lee
straight south from the mansion, bu
its terminus evidently had been CLOSED
for many years and the air was foun(
so bad that the wreckers have not ven
tured more than twenty-five feet int
the passage.

PATHETIC STORY.

AS never before the eyes of the peo-
pie of Eastern Tednessee are upon
Kingsport as they have never been
before in the history of the town.
While the prices being received for
the property are good, yet the selling
of the farms and homes is bringing out
many pathetic stories. The aged
mothers of some of the men who are
selling their homes are in despair and
say that they would rather retain their
old homesteads, where they have lived
all their lives and raised their families,
than to receive the thousands and thou
sands Of dollars for the property. The
great business world is demanding that
these home ties be severed, and that
the people of Kingsport sacrifice their
pleasures in the interest Of business
snd industrial progress, the same as
the red man gave way before the on
slaught of the early pioneers from tbs
days OF Columbus down to the present
