brated Plant in the Hills.
DEADWOOD, S. D., Oct. 16.-The
old Detroit & Deadwood mill, in which
the venturous Frank Andrews, the De-
troit banker, invested money, burned
last night.
When the mill was erected in 1901,
Andrews invested funds in this as well
as in Cripple Creek and Utah prop
critics. Although the mill was equipped
with the best of modern machinery
and the cyanide method installed, yet
from the first it was a failure, due
largely, so it was said, to incompetent
management. 1t cost originally $40,-
900 and was supposed to have a capac-
ity of fifty tons a day.
1t soon was abandoned and for a
of the property, but he proved too ex-
pensive, and all precautions eventual
ly were withdrawn. The stock is held
chiefly in Detroit and other cities n
Michigan. 1t is supposed the fire Or
iginated from a fire built by some
camping party, or else was the work
of an incendiary.

Sargent's Blind PUPILS.

J. S. Sargent tells of an artist in
Paris who had much difficulty in get
ting his pupils to make use of the ex-
tremely ''impressiOnistic" ideas of art.
One evening at large dinner party
he asked an elderly gentleman next to
him, who was very shOrtsighted, how
the gentleman at the foot of the table
appeared to him.
"Well," replied the nearsighted one

A MOST WORTHY ARTICLE.

When an article has been on the
market for years and gains friends
every year, it is safe to call this
medicine a worthy one. Such is Bal
lard's Horehound Syrup. It positively
cures coughs and all Pulmonary dis
eases. One of the best known mer-
chants in Mobile, Ala, says: For
five years my family has not been
troubled with the winter coughs we
up. I know it has saved my children
from many sick spells" Sold by A.

The Intreuid HUFFMAN.

There was little man who had little
gun,
And his bullets were made Of lead, lead,

He went to a brook and saw a little duck,
And skillfully he shot it through the
head, head. head.
He found it where it lay; then he threw
the bird away
And waited where the waving reeds
were thick, thick. thick;
Thus he skulked and thus he shot, leav-
ing mangled birds to rot,
For they ceased to interest him when
they fell, fell, fell.
His high purpose was to kill, and his
prowess and his skill
Caused the manly breast beneath his
vest to swell, swell, swell.
When the man got home at night he ex-
claimed with proud delight
AS he polished up his gun, gun, gun,
Man is great, and this is shown in the
fact that he alone
Can shoot living things to pieces just
for fun. fun, fun

oREeoNIAM ON MEN AND COACHES

Saturday will mark the opening OF
the season throughout the Northwest.
Oregon and Astoria will try conclusions
at Eugene on that date, and there will
he a number of games Of minor i'm
portance, says the Sunday Oregonian,
commenting on football affairs.
Speculation is rife as to the changes
that will be brought about by the
adoption of the new code of rules. 1t
is the general opinion that the game
will be more interesting for spectators,
but more severe for the players.
Before the colleges opened their
doors in September it was thought that
interest in the game would be at low
ebb this year, but reports. from the
East indicate that there is more in
terest and a bigger display of enthu-
siasm than ever before. In local cir
cles, especially at the Multnomah Club,
football enthusiasm is running high.
MuItnomah Club Players.
Captain David Jordan had his men
out for three evening practices last
week, and there will be some scrim-
mage work between the first and Sec
ond teams this morning. Many of the
old players are regaining their former
speed and skill, while the new men are
showing great aptitude for the game.
Frank Lonergan was out for prac-
tice Wednesday evening, and showed
up we'll at halfback. With Dolpn,
James and Lonergan in the back field,
Multnomah will have set of ground
gamers that should make their distance
against any team. Burt, the big guard
of last year, is showing great i'm
| provement over his previous work, and
his friends predict great things for him
during the coming season. RAIDER has
been doing great work at quarterback
and has also SHOWN up splendidly at
| tackle.
| Manager Koran expects to try out a
number of men in the game with AL
bany, as it is his intention to select
the men who make the best showing
for his lineup against Whitman on
| October q. Albany has some good
players this year, and under the coach
ing of Alton B. Coates and w. Lair
Thompson the team is rapidly rounding
into playing form. Some of the Albany
players have seen service on the best
college teams of the state, and II
is freely predicted that the boys from
the Valley town will give Multnomat
a good game.
Washington Men are Light.
Prospects for a successful season al
the University of Washington, are
brighter than they were a week ago
although the outlook might be much
better than it is at present. A big
rally was held Thursday evening, and
some genuine enthusiasm was mani.

NEW YORK, Oct 16.-On the invi-

Of the First Congregational church Of

YES, I KNOW" SMILED THE BAGGAGE
MASTER
know you will take my ticket and get
it checked for me. Brother Will said
he would surely be here, but something
has happened to detain him."
'It will be something to remember all
my life"
A child Of ten, bachelor Of forty
or an old woman Of ninety can check
a trunk when once the feat of getting
it to the depot has been accomplished.
All you have to do is to point 1t out
with one hand while you show your
ticket with the other and tell the bag
gage master that he must make no mis-
take and check it for Oshkosh instead
Of Kalamazoo.
Harry Lee had that trunk identified
and checked in seven minutes, and he
was feeling rather proud over the fact
when a plain looking woman Of forty
appealed to him. She was looking for
trunk with broken handle, but thus
far it had eluded her. It tried to dodge
Harry Lee. but in vain. He had his
eyes on 1t In no time.
Just at this juncture a girl Of eight
cen, dressed in mourning and looking
fearful and anxious, wanted help. Her
trunk was all right as to handles, but
she was afraid it had been checked to
Rochester instead Of Syracuse. She
gave the bachelor her check to see
about it, and thus it came about that
he had three checks for three trunks in
his possession. Moreover, he put them
into the same pocket. Moreover, again,
he'd have walked back to Miss Rem
ington with them had not the plain
looking woman and the girl in mourn
ing hesita tingly reminded him of his
careleSSneSs.
Ten thousand pardons, ladies'" he
apologized in confusion, and with that
he CALAMITY pulled out the three checks
and made a fair divide There was
just one apiece and nothing left over.
1t was train time now and everybody
in a hurry, and Miss Remington's
brother came rushing in, and so with
it all no one made any discoveries, and
the three women were hurried away
with scores of other passengers.
For the first time in year, so far as
he could remember, the club bachelor
had made himself useful for a few
minutes, and there was something like
elation in his eye as he left the depot
to continue his saunter. Twenty-four
hours later he received a call from
young Winchester, who had an open
telegram in his hand and who bluntly
inquired:
'See here, Lee, what have you done
with my sisters trunkY'
"Why, checked it for Buffalo yes
terday."
"She has telegraphed that she has an
other in the place Of it,
'But, man, l surely checked 1t, and
you saw me hand her the BRASS Those
COMPOUNDED railroad folks must have
made another Of their stupid mistakes"
well, We'll let it rest for a day, and
perhaps they'll rectify it,"
During the next twenty-four hours
Miss Remington sent two more tele-
grams from Buffalo, and the ease low.
