GENERAL HEALTH GOOD
MEASLES DISAPPEARING
Physicians Now Called on to Treat
Many Cases Of Stomach Trouble
Caused From People Eating Cold
Food-Infants Uncomfortable.

The general health conditions seem
to be in a very good state for this
time of year. The many cases of
measles which have been reported for
the past month are rapidly disappear
ing. Only one case of Typhoid fever
exists in the city. The customary
stomach troubles which are prevail
ent at this time of the year claim
their usual victims. These are laid
to careless eating and the consuming
of cold preparations, especially the
drink of ice water which is said TO be
very bad for the system. The unus-
ually warm weather of the past few
days has caused great deal of un-
comfort to the infants, but SO far no
deaths have been reported from this
cause. The physicians of the city
generally advise that particular care
be taken in regard to foods, veget-
ables and water.

FURTHER INVESTIGATION
SEC. HITCHCOCK ANGRY
Government will Look Further into
the Land Frauds in Oregon-Bad
Blood Between Secretary and Sena-
tor Fulton.

Washington, July IA further in
vestigation of the land frauds in Ore
gon has been instituted by Secretary
Hitchcock. He has issued instruc-
tions that drag nets be thrown out and
he believes number of prominent
officials will be caught. These es-
capped indictments in connection with
the prosecutions which resulted in
the conviction of former Senator
Mitchell and Representative William
son.
II is said Mr.. Hitchcock has TIRED
the whole matter up anew because of
an interview given in Portland by
Senator Fulton in which he referred
TO the Secretary as 'an old fogy." Bad
blood has existed between the Secre-
tary and the senator ever since the
first prosecution began. Mr.. Fulton
would not go to the Interior depart
ment during the past session of con-
gress. He believed Mr.. Mitchell and
Representative Williamson were being
prosecuted and so expressed himself.
w J. Burns, of the secret service,
is said to have been sent West in con-
nection with the further investigation
ordered by Secretary Hitchcock.

That the trial will be held in the

that a motion will be made to trans

The southeastern suburbs of Rensse-

terrorized for over a week by the &C.
uons of Il supposed insane man or
fugitive, that even the young boys 90
about armed and the men cannot go

river on the Rensselaer, Stock Farm.
Last night Marshall Parks and Oscar
Wick went out to try to effect his ca>
ture. He saw them in time to make
his escape into the woods. but stopped
TO fire two shots when he was ordered
to halt. The officers fired five or six
times after the fleeing man, but with.
out effect, owing to the darkness.
His next appearance was this fore.
noon when he slipped up to within
about fifty feet of where three young
men were sitting under some trees
and fired at them. then fed back into
the thicket. They fired a return shot
and gave an alarm. The officers
hurried out and made another search
but as before, he succeeded in eluding
them.

SPOKE ON JESUS
AND THE FAMILY"
Rev. Alfred T. Ware Thinks
Laws Too Lax Regarding
Marriage and Divorce.
WAS A STRONG SERMON
SPEAKER STRONGLY URGED
THAT WOMEN SHOULD LIVE UP
TO A HIGH IDEAL CALLING
FORTH NEEDED RESPECT.

Rev. Alfred F. Ware, pastor of the
East Main street Friends church
preached to a large congregation on
the subject: Jesus and The Family
at the open air services last evening.
He traced the formation from the
creation of man to the present day,
following it through the maze of his
tory and demonstrating the attendant
effects upon it's life.
He stated that now to every six
marriages there is divorce and that
the home life is responsible for it. He
drew the comparison of the Pagan
ideal OF marriage, composed of the
three parts, /, civil contract; 2, CO.
partnership; 3, dissolvible at pleasure
and it's likness to the present condi-
tiOns. This Pagan idea of marriage
was opposed and overcome to a great
extent in early days, by Christianity.
The old Jewish laws supported the
principle of marriage of one man to
one woman and not the free-ance
will of man to take unto himself
whom SO ever and as many as he de-
sired
Jesus has said that the one and
only cause for divorce should be for
nicatiOn, and that marriage is not a
contract of any sort but a divine or
dinance. Supplementary to- the other
is the independence of woman which
is considered to be another prime
cause of the divorces of today
To get a divorce nowadays the man
and wife call in few neighbors.
These witnesses that the husband
strikes the woman and that she re-
turns the compliment. Then a decree
of divorce on the grounds of inhuman
treatment, separate and perhaps the
same day marry another man or wO-
man. The law in many cases, is too
lax and almost amounts to nothing as
regards divorce.
He strongly advocated the mateing
of the proper persons and the point
that a woman should live up to the
high ideal in which man naturally
nolds her and should not lower her
self to those coarser things which are
by right the lot of man. That she
should cultivate that gentle and
sweet nature which makes and holds
her so dear to the hearts of her hus-
band, children and friends.

EFFECT OF THE FOURTH
National Holiday Causes People to
Spend Money After Which They
Tighten for Time.

Business in the city has not fullys
recovered it's usual basis since the
Fourth. A slump in expenditures of
money is noticeable in all classes of
enterprise for a few weeks after the
national holiday. This is caused by
the improportionate expenditures
which the people MAKE in preparation
for the festive day, after which ready
money seems to be scarce for awhile.
Even in the street car business,
where one would scarcely expect to
find this deficiency there is marked
fall below the normal in receipts. It
was stated yesterday that a drop OF
several per cent is noticed in the col
lection of fares and will be for the
next few weeks when it seems it is
to be the habit for them to make a
sudden change to their former basis.
The Sunday business Is also affected.

Publishers Press1

Panama, July 15.-Unless the offer
of mediation on the part of Mexico
and the United States to settle the
dispute between Salvador and Hondu-
ras on the one hand and Guatemala on
the other, is soon accepted all of the
Central merican republics are likely
to be Involved in q war that will prove
disastrous to them. The combined
forces OF Salvador and Honduras are
attacking the main army of Guatemala
and the fighting has been in progress
for the last three days with the adj
vantage on the part of the attacking
force, SO far, at least, inasmuch as the
Guatemalan army is fighting a rear
guard action and is slowly retreating
before the. enemy.
Nicaragua, it is reported, has issu-
ed a warning to Guatemala that if she
does nI. respect Nicaraguan terri
tory, that nation will soon take a
hand in the strife.
Owing to the total lack of communi-
cation, details of the fighting are slow
in arriving here.
1t is generally believed that the gov
ernments of Mexico and the Unite d
States will soon be able to force the
belligerents to cease fighting and sub
NIT all of the points at dispute to an
international court of arbitration.
1t is reported here that Americans
are fighting on both sides of the con-
test, the warning nations having with
in the last few months taken into their
service many Americans who have
seen service in Cuba and Porto Rico
during the Spanish American war.
