Lewis and Clark Exposition at Portland,
Oregon.

With more than four months still re-
naming before the opening day, June
l, exhibits and displays for the Lewis
and Clark Centennial are beginning to
arrive in Portland by the carload, and
are being stored in finished buildings
on the exposition grounds. From this
time on the cars OF exhibits will con-
tinue to arrive in large numbers until
all the displays are ready for the open
ing of the great coast fair.
California has sent one car, contain
ing part of her display in education
and social economy, and more are ex-
pected in few days.
All but one of the exhibition palaces
are now completed, and the arrival of
exhibits at this early date makes GER
tain the readiness of the fair on the
opening day.
Persla's exhibit will be worth $780,
600. Vermont's building will be a re-
production of the old Constitution
House of 1777. Great Britain will oc-
cupy $500 square feet of exhibit space.
Hungary will have an exhibit worth
$50, 900. Costa Rica will make q fine
display of coffee, hemp, cocoa and other
products at the Western Worlds Fair.
The display is valued at $40, 200. An
interesting attraction for women will
be the display of the latest frocks from
Paris in the French section of the
Manufactures Building. Egypt and
Morocco will make combined African
display. The exhibit will cover 3. 500
square feet, and it's value will be 1925,
600, The Matching of chickens will be
shown to the general public All ex-
hibitors OF incubators will be req uired
to make their displays operative, and
at stated hours the crowds will be in
vlted to come and see the chickens
break their shells. The piling and
flooring work on the Trail and Bridge
OF Nations is now completed, and the
government peninsula can now be
reached by this route. The bridge
spans 1000 feet of water and is the
longest bridge ever erected at an ex-
position. The art display will be of
fabulous value, representing more
money than will be expended in build
ing the exposition. There will be few
paintings worth at least 800, 600 each,
and the aggregate value of the display
will be millions of dollars. The Indian
exhibit will be large and extensive
one, IN many respects superior to those
| held at earlier world fairs. A feature
OF the treasury department exhibit in
the government building will be mint
in full operation, where souvenir medals
will be turned out every day instead of
gold and silver coins. Every feature
OF the exposition will be as perfect as
money and time can make it.

Coroner's Inquest.

The inquest held to determine the
cause of the accident that resulted in
the death of Joseph H. Bastain at the
Argonaut mine was presided over by
Justice Goldner, the coroner being in
quarantine at the time. Foreman
Francis was the main witness, and gave
a straightforward statement as to the
working of the Slopes and stated that
he had considered deceased to be a
practical and very careful miner. He
considered the accident the fault of no
one in particular, but simply one of
those caves that come without apparent
cause or warning. The jury after
listening carefully to the evidence,
brought in a verdict of death from in
juries received in the third stope of the
1930-foot level, finding that it was
purely accidental and exonerating all
employees from blame.

No More Stomach Troubles.

All stomach trouble is removed by
the use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1t
gives the stomach perfect rest by di-
costing what you eat without the stom-
ach IS aid. The food builds up the body,
the rest restores the stomach to health.
You don't have to diet yourself when
taking Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. J. d.
Erskine, of Allenville, Mich, says: 81
suffered Heartburn and Stomach trou-
BILE for some time. My sister-in-law
has had the same trouble aud was not
able to eat for six weeks. She lived
entirely on warm water. After taking
two bottles of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
she was entirely cured. She now eats
heartily and is in good health. l am
glad to say Kodol gave me instant re-
lief Sold by all druggists.

languishing, would be amply sufficient
over and above the reasonable cost of

great and vital question of general

reclamation Of waste lands and the re-

for by about e3,0O0,0OO a year or a
little more; and allowing s5,0O0,000 a

there would still remain over, out of

FROM THE IRON RANGE.

Eveleth, Minn., Oct. 5.-Tuesday
evening and Wednesday morning
there came here nearly two hundred
methodist ministers to the conference
which opened Wednesday and which
will last the rest of the week. The
ministers will leave Monday. The
conference was held at the NJ. E.
church. 1t was with a good deal of
hard work on the part of the Rev.
Taylor Of Eveleth that it became pos
sible to get the conference here, and
more hard work to find places for the
ministers to stay. The members of
his church encouraged him in his ef-
forts and threw their homes open to
the visitors and all We're taken care
of in the best manner possible. The
Rev. Taylor is delighted. We cannot
say much for the business places nor
the city administration as the city
looked cold and noninterested, but if
there was to be a dog fight. horse race
or rooster fight, the city would be
decorated and brass band or two to
add to the occasion. There was not
as much as flag on the school houses
or city hall, yet most any time in the
year previous to the conference there
were flags flying from all the public
buildings, and yet we hear the old
familiar cry, Boost your town-don't
knock" We are sorry Carrie Nation
didn't come here to do little knock
ing that would count, and surely all
the people of Eveleth that did all in
their power to show the respect that
is due to such an intelligent body of
men will not forget the chilly reception
on the part Of the city. Next in order
we will hear is, Don't knock-boost
your town-say a good word" We say
shame on this occasion.

Population Fiuures.

one controversy which has been 60
ing on for many years is as to whether
there are more Irish than German or
more German than Irish residents of
New York. The answer might seem
easy to obtain from official statistics.
Yet on this matter the vital statistics
of each year disprove the census re-
ports.
In 1900. for instance, the figures Civ
en- by the census We're as follows: Ger
man population of the Greater New
York, 322,343, and Irish population of
the Greater New York, 275172. This
indicates a clear majority of German
residents. But of 10000 deaths re-
ported in the same year, 5000 were
Germans and $500 of Irish.
While the German population is
largely in excess of the Irish pop
ulation there. the number OF
deaths of those German born
should be, of course correspond
inly larger. 1t is not. and never has
been, and this appears to be the start
ing point Of the long controversy.
In their own country the Irish are
longer lived people than the Germans
and. moreover, the death rate in Ire.
land is considerably less than it is il
Germany. In 1900 it was % per thou
sand of population In Germany and 1916
in Ireland.
BY the last published report of the
board of health, given in detail. the
number of deaths of Irish born resi-
dents of New York was larger in Man.
| haitian, Brooklyn and Richmond. The
number of deaths among German resi-.
, dents was higher in Queens. and in tn.
Bronx it is exactly the same, though
(, the census reports give the number o
German born residents in the Bron,
as being very much larger than th'
number of Irish.
