OIds Ferry Has ii Mystery.

A man was found dead this morn
ing near Olds Ferry. The sheriff was
notified and with the coroner brought
the body to this place. A search of his
effects revealed that his name was F.
w. Bryan, which was on a letter from
his mother. The letter was sent from
Rogersville, Md, and it seems the man
must have been on his way to his old
home, as he had in his possession a
ticket from Portland to that place. He
also had $500 in money and a silver
watch.
From the nature of the bruises on
the body it is evident that the man
either Intentionally jumped off the
cliff, landing on his head, or else fell
off One of the trainment said that
Thursday the man was on his train
and complained of having pains and
that he got off at Olds Ferry that
night News of the death has been
telegraphed to the mans mother

WASHINGTON, OREGON AND IDAHO
FOREST RESERVE LAWS STRINGENT
Sheep and CattIemen Must Secure
Permits to Cross Blue Mountain
Reserve En- Route to Wenaha.

Umatilla county sheepmen who Sc

forest reserve will be compelled to
cross a portion of the Blue mountains

the Blue Mountain Forest reserve,
who is now in the city.

TELLS HOW FUEL IS WASTED
Geological Survey Has Made In
portant Report.
CONTAINS SOME INTERESTING FACTS
PEOPLE OF UNITED STATES
SPEND ONE BILLION DOLLARS
ANNUALLY FOR WOOD.
CONTAINS SOME INTERESTING FACTS

WASHINGTON, D. c., May A.
The report of the geological survey
of the United States contains some in
teresting facts in regard to the ter
rifle waste of fuel in this country,
which statements are of special inter-
est owing to the probabilities of a gen.
eral coal strike in the near future.
After stating that the people of the
United States spend approximately
$500, 100000 a year for fuel for the
production Of heat, light and power,
the report says:
"The losses in the utilization of fuel
for the development of power, light
and heat under existing conditions are
so great that in a ton of coal consum
ed in an ordinary manufacturing plant
less than five per cent of the total
energy is available for the actual work
of manufacturing; that in any ordinary
locomotive only from three to five per
cent of the fuel is obtained for pulling
the train; that in our houses ordinarily
not more than one-seventh of one per
cent of the fuel energy is actually
transformed into electric light; that
gases from the blast furnaces of the
country are now lost in the atmos-
phere that would yield continuously,
if properly utilized, more than 100000
horse power, and, that by-prOducts
might be saved from the 100000 tons
of coal which we now convert into
coke, that would have an aggregate
yearly value much greater than that of
the coke itself. These by-products
would include ammonium sulphate
sufficient to fertilize our farms, creO-
sote for the preservation of our tim
Der, and pitch enough to briquet our
slack Goals, roofing our houses and re-
pairing some of eur roads. How ap-
palling that such waste should con-
tinue after we know that it exists!
Unfortunately, it is not always clear
even to those who best understand the
nature and uses of coal how such
economies may be effected. No meth
DDS, for instance, are known by which
more than one-sixth Of the nitrogen in
coal can be saved in the manufacture
Of coke. There is no subject touching
the welfare of the human race on
which research is more needed than
economy in the use of fuel.

Governors br0ther.in.LaW Is Well
Taken Care o..
IS NOW DEPUTY FISH Commissioner
THE APPOINTMENT WAS A GREAT
SURPRISE TO THE STATE
POLITICIANS.

Under the contract made by the ap-
pointment Of John Riseland as fish
shaw, Charles Beal, brother-in-law of
Governor Mead, has arrived in the city
and taken the position of deputy fish
commissioner to succeed F. D. Lippin-
cott "Brother-in-law Charlie" as he
has come to be known over the state,
is at his post of duty and breaking
into the work Of his new position, is
the report that comes from Belling-
ham.
Jerry Brisben, of this city, has also
been rewarded with a place at the dis
posal of the fish commissioner and will
henceforth be known as superintendent
of the Nooksack hatchery at Kendall.
When he was afraid that his job would
be taken away from him Lippincott left
the office Saturday night and has not
been seen since. Whatever his success
sor, Beal, gains in knowledge of the Of
flee will be furnished him by others of
the office force now holding their posi-
tions.
That Governor Mead is determined
that Beal shall hold a position in
spite Of everything is a conclusion
now reached by politicians all over the
state. 1t was on Bears account that
the old soldiers of this city and other
cities of the state passed excoriating
resolutions against the governor, and
demanding the withdrawal Of Beal as
adjutant of the Soldiers Home at Ort-
ing. BeaTs ascendency to the position
of deputy fish commissioner from that
of oil inspector, adjutant, steward and
other positions, is one that was totally
unlocked for and is met by as much
surprise on the part of the fishermen
as it is among many of the politicians.

think permanently, as it was about five
years ago.
"The psoriasis first made its appear

circle, leaving in the center aspot about
the size of silver dollar of sound flesh.
In a short time the affected circle
would form heavy dry scale of white
silvery appearance and would gradually
drop off. To remove the entire scales
by bathing or using oil to soften them
the flesh would be perfectly raw, and
light discharge of bloody substance
would ooze out. That scaly crust would
