The past month has been the
wettest July within our recollec-
ton, and the freshet of the 2tst
inst. was undoubtedly the biggest
"July freshet" since 1876.
Our roads, especially along the
creeks, were badly damaged. Hay
in the swath and small grain in
shocks were also seriously dam
aged. In some instances the con-
tinuous rains caused a total loss
of hay. The yield of hay was
very light for wet season.
AS everybody has been busy
trying to harvest, news is quite
scarce here.
j. M. Lucas recently went to
Sunlight, and L. E., and G. w.
Boulch to Belgrade, on business.
The following named persons
visited relatives in this community
during July: Richard Griggs and
Calvin Abney and their respective
families, and Luther Scott, of near
Courtois; j. I'll. Sylvester McLain,
of near Quaker; Mr.. and Mrs. Jas.

Madam Rumor once again has it

fifteen miles east of billiard, the
present eastern terminus of said

Europe is bit worried over a

1t seems that a lot-of princelings
are getting in an extra large stock

Expenses Low at Portland Fair.

People looking for vacation bar
gains are finding the Lewis and
Clark Exposition the cheapest
and best" thing offered this sum-
mer, for, besides the attractions OF
the big Western Worlds Fair,
Portland can offer visitors a sea-
shore climate, mountain scenery,
and accommodations atlower rates
than ever before have been in
effect during big fair. The
cheapness of the accommodations
is not due to the size of the crowds,
for these have been much larger
than was expected, but to the fact
that SO many people in Portland
have gone into the lodging house
business. Portland normally has
more room for visitors than most
cities of it's size, on account of the
large number of boarding and
Lodging houses and this year a
large number of new hotels have
been erected.
In the immediate vicinity of the
fair grounds, there are temporary
boarding and lodging houses with
a grand total of 2,67O rooms, while
the American Inn, within the
grounds, has 5S5 rooms and can
accommodate 1900 people. There
are also several new, first-cla
hotels down town.

Fell Dead.

A man fell dead in Chicago the
other day from heart trouble, and
thousands die every day in the
same way. But the cause of nine
out of ten of such cases of heart
trouble is indigestion. The cure
is DR.. Caldwell's Qaxative) Syrup
Pepsin. The explanation is that
the swollen, inflamed, and en-
gorged stomach, presses right up
against the heart and prevents it
from working; your heart flutters,
palpitates, pains, and you are
short of breath; some lose it for
ever. Just try for these symptoms
a few doses of DR.. Caldwell's S
Syrup Pepsin, and see how quickly
it will cure you. Sold by Arcadia

twenty-five cents each for break

cut down perhaps twenty five
cents a day if one so desires. Ad-
mission to the fair grounds during
the daytime is fifty cents, and at
night twenty-five cents. Most
people prefer to take their eve
