doubtedly be allotted liberal space.
The plan of tho Sumpter District

tising matter relating to the mineral
resources Of this camp.
Word comes from Baker City that
fred X. MelIis will accompany his
mineral cabinets to Portland and be
in charge Of the Baker county ore ex-
hibit. Such choice would un.
d ,ubtedly meet with the hearty ap-
pro,al of Baker county mining men

Spokane. Buffalo, Charleston and st.
Louis, are the most valuable and
completesin the west, and Mr.. Mellis'

ward that end. 1t Is understood
that verbal assurance has been re.
eeived from Mineral Commissioners
Weyant that a liberal space will be
allotted to the Sumpter, district aud
that the fair management will sub
NIT no objections to the presence OF
as many special representatives from
this camp as may be desired.
A number Of names have infor-
mally been mentioned for the job.
The most prominently named gen
tleman IL. of course, Anthony Mohr,
the hustling rustler who was the
moving spirit in securing the perma'
hent ore exhibit In Sumpter. IL Mr.
Mohr would accept the appointment,
he would have little or no opposi-
tion. j. Il. Reed IL a lso mentioned.
Mr.. Reed had charge of the Oregon
ore exhibit at the Charleston exposl-
ton, where Tho Mellis cabinets were
displayed. j. Win Wilson has also
been mentioned, as we'll as IL. Il.

NO CHRISTMAS FOR BABES
IS SAD MOTHERS PLEA
WOMAN ASKS JUDGE TRASK TO
GRANT HER DIVORCE
After Conference, However, She De-
cides to Return to Husband and
Give Him One More Chance to
Provide for Herself and Little Ones

She was a small. frail woman and
she looked the picture of misery as
she walked around the corridors of the
court house yesterday asking for Judge
TraSk.
She walked and waited for nearly
half an hour before the presiding judge
passed through the ante-room and en-
tered his chambers. Even then the lit
tie woman could not summon up
enough courage to knock at the door,
and she sat in one corner of the ante
room and continued to look miserable,
while her two brght-faced youngsters
crawled about the floor and chartered
and talked to her.
Finally, with a last sigh of resolu-
ton. she went to the door and tapped
lightly "Come in," came the voice of
the Judge from the other side and the
woman entered, taking her children
with her.
One of the babies, lad of 3 years,
held to his mothers hands, but the
little girl simply buried her face in the
folds of the womans skirt and sobbed.
II want a divorce, Judge, and some
one told me you could give me one
without the expense of hiring an at
torney," began the woman timidly, but
the Judge shook his head and Informed
her she was mistaken.
you see / have had a hard time OF
it with my husband" continued the
little mother, who. according tC
