A SALEM CASE.
Many More Like 1t In Salem.

The following case is but one of
many similar occurring daily in Sa-
lem. 1t is an easy matter to verify
its correctness. Surely you cannot ask
for better proof than such conclusive
evidence:
Mrs. S. Collins, of 679 High street,
Salem, Ore, says: "Trouble with my
kidneys and backache have caused me
much annoyance for several years. AL
though I used a good many remedies
1 obtained no positive relief until my
attention was called to Doan's Kidney
Pills, and 1 procured them at DR..
Stones drug store. They soon brought
me effective benefit, eased the bearing

loins, and banished the aching and 9TH

Berlin Accumulating Art Treasures.

Berlin Accommodating Art Treasures.
1.-TWO most unusual purchases
have just been made by the Berlin
national gallery. They are two
paintings by Adolf Menzel. One of
these pictures, which portrays a per-
Torrance in the theatre Gymnase,
was bought for the sum of 10000
marks, although it is only small
canvas measuring 22 centimeters
broad and 46 centimetres long.
This very high price is, of course,
explained by the fact that the pic
ture has an exceptional value and
significance for the history of art.
For in painting this picture Menzel
had in 1856 employed the impress
sionist technique; that is, some 10
years before Manet, with sovereign
certainty and thus proved himself to
be pioneer of modern art. The
second picture, the "Ballsouper, y
considerably more than the first.
Menzel brought to bear his marvel
Gus power OF observation and sure
ness of touch in painting this chaos
of guests at a court ball as they are
taking refreshments during one of
the pauses. The price of this paint
ing amounted to 10000 marks, and
this is the highest sum which has
ever been paid for one of the pro-
ductions of a modern German artist.
These prices show rapidly Menzel
who only died quite recently, has en-
tered the ranks of the historical
masters and also how quickly his
work is being acquired for the mu-
scum. They prove further that
wealth and interest In art are rapid
ly advancing in Germany and that
the country begins in these respects
to approach to France and England.
Sums such as are often bid for
works of art at Christie's or In the
Hotel Dronot were simply impossi-
BILE in Germany short time ago. In
this present year, however, Berlin
collector secured THE Letter" OF
Jan Vermeer Van Delft for the CO
lossal sum of a third OF a million
marks. This same lover of art, Sc
we are told. has just bought at a
very high price marvellous youthful
portrait of Boticelli. Berlin's art
treasures have been recently ac-
cumulating in an exceptionally rapid
and fortunate manner.--Continental

No Gales In Rome.

Gales are very rare in Rome, and
never blow with extreme violence. The
most striking popularity of the Roman
climate is the absence of high winds.
The air is pure and clear, owing to
the almost complete absence of smoke,
even In the winter months. The aver
age yearly movement of the air is only
five miles an hour. This is of enor-
nous advantage in winter, since the
"tramontana" (north wind), which is
the prevailing wind in this season, is,
II strong, decidedly cold and bracing,
but when under eight miles an hour
is delightful to most people, including
invalids. The south winds are essen

alternate with the tramontana. The

Los Angeles. CAL, Feb. 9.-"Kid"
Herman and Aurelia Herrera in a 20
round bout is the magnet that is ex-

Pacific Athletic club to the ringside

fighters battle for supremacy.
, Expressions of confidence emanate
from both training camps today. With
both men At as the proverbial fiddle
the contest is expected to be one of
the liveliest seen hereabouts in long
while. Herrera, by virtue of his de-
feat of Young Corbett," has won a
large following and much money is
being CHANGED on his victory tonight.
Herman, on the other hand, possesses
youth, stamina and skill and his
chances of success are thought we'll

Added interest is given to the bout
by the fact that the winner will in

Claims.

Washington, Feb. "a committee

the General Slocum survivors called
on President Roosevelt recently and
appeared before the committee on
claims Of the house for the purpose
of urging the passage of bill, intro
duced by Representative Sulzer,
which will. If passed, give the asso-
citation chance to sue in the court
Of claims. Mr.. Sulzer introduced the
visitors to the president and briefly
outlined their claims and hopes. AS
the catastrophe, which occurred on
the East river on June IS, 1904, was
largely caused, it is charged, by the
negligence of government inspectors,
the members of the organization be-
lieve the government ought as mat
ter of simple justice to award those
who suffered such damages as they
would be entitled to In the eyes of the
law. Under the law as it now stands
the survivors and heirs of the dead
have no redress and will have none
unless congress passes some bill. The

house was headed by Charles Dersch,
president Of the organization, and

A C0MP[E CRUISE
OF THE PACIFIC
OCEAN
Scientists Interested in Expe.
dition Soon to Start Un-
der Carnegie Auspices.

San Diego, CAL, Feb. 9-Scientists
are deeply Interested in the expedition
about to leave here, under the direc-
tion of the Carnegie institution, to
make magnetic survey of the North
Pacific ocean. The ccuise, which is to
be made In a comparatively small sail
Ing vessel, will include complet cir
cult of that great body of water, and
a journey Of 10000 miles will have
been made when the ship returns to
the United States.
From San Diego the vessel is to sail
along the west coast of South America
to Tanning island; thence to the Sam
oan, Fiji and Marshall islands, Guam
and In the neighborhood of the Philip
pines. From there she will 60 into
Chinese and Japanese waters, touch
Ing at Yokohoma and Toxic. Contin-
uing her journey north, she will go
along the coast of Siberia, and stop at
the Aleutian islands, after which Alas
kan waters will be entered, visit
being made to Sitka.
The primary purpose of the cruise
Is to make thorough magnetic sur
vey of the north Pacific. While the
state of existing knowledge of the dis
tribution of the earth's magnetic
forces over oceanic areas, owing to the
scarcity of precise data, as in general
exceedingly unsatisfactory, this is es-
pecially true of the Pacific ocean, rap
idly developing in great commercial
Importance. Except for data from oc-
casional expeditions and such as were
acquired in wooden vessels long time
ago, the present magnetic charts used
by the navigator over this region de-
pend largely upon the observations on
islands and along the coasts. Such
land observations, however, are rarely
representative of the true values, be-
cause of prevalent local disturbances.
While it is not anticipated that any
marked Irregularities in the distribu-
tion of the earth's magnetism will
manifest themselves over the deep
waters of the Pacific, it may be con-
fidently expected that in the neigh
borhood Of the islands and along the
coasts, distortions and irregularities
will reveal themselves.

sMO0T CASE ON.
Another Witness Tells of Methods in
Utah,


Washington, Feb. &C. A. Smurth-
waite of Ogden wa SCALED for cross
examination by A. S. Worthington,
counsel for Senator Smoot in the pro-
ceedings today before the committee
on privileges and elections. The wit
ness said the usual course to settle
difficulties between members of the
church is to lay complaint with the
teachers of the ward in which the ag-
grieved reside, and the bishop, after
hearing the complaint, ordinarily in
structs the teachers to do everything
in the power to adjust the differences.
Worthington asked Smurthwaite If he
had any reason to believe his trouble
with President Smith over their rival
salt interests could not have been ad-
justed in the same way. The witness
said his knowledge of church leaders
convinced him that it was impossible.
Knox inquired If the first presidency
followed up its threat to him and
the witness said the price of crude
salt was reduced from $S to 81 q ton.
His credit was injured and the stock
of his company deprecated. The
Protestants' counsel then announced
that their case was closed.

now before congress to make the gov
ernment reservation at Fort Sill, Ok
lahoma, the great maneuvering ground
for the United States army has re-
ceived the Endorsement of many prone
inent army men and there is every
reason to believe that It will meet with
favorable action. It is said that the
government can get control, at rea-
sonable price, Of a tract 10 By 80 miles
in dimensions, the pick perhaps OF any

project 1t is pointed out that the cli-
mate in that locality is most favorable
and that the location is exceedingly

TAKEN FROM COACH
LAST EVENING BY
- SHERIFF
Silver J. Storkson Held in Con
tempt By Order of Judge
Fisk.

Last evening Sheriff Turner boarded
train No. 6 as it pulled into the Great
Northern station and arrested Silver
]. Storkson, a prominent farmer liv-
ing near Aneta, on a warrant issued
by Judge Fisk for contempt of court.
The prisoner protested against the
proceedings but was taken to the
county bastile and locked up for tho
night.
The sequel to the arrest is of SEN
sational nature. Storkson has lived
near Aneta for some years and has
been considered a prosperous farmer.
Last summer he sued his wife for di-
vorce, the title of the case being Silver
j. Storkson VS.. Oliana Storkson. The
defendant, represented by Skulason L
Skulason of this city, filed cross
petition. Both parties alleged cruelty
and fnhuman treatment.
Last October during the session of
court at Lakota, the defendants attor-
ney filed a petition for temporary ali
mony and court expenses. Judge Fisk
granted $50 for attorneys fees and
500 alimony. This was not paid and
Storkson's arrest followed. He paid
$7S and gave an order on Larimore
bank for the remainder. The order
proved to be no good and when Stork-
son was wanted he had disappeared.
He remained in Canada until short
time ago, when he returned to Aneta
and sold all of his property and was
evidently preparing to leave the coun-
try. A warrant was issued by Judge
Fisk and Mr.. Skulason learning he was
to pass through the city on train No. 6,
secured his arrest. He is now held In

PATRICK FIGHTS FOR LIFE.

.
New York, Feb. 9.-Whether Albert
7. Patrick, under sentence of death
for the alleged murder of William F.
Rice, the Texas millionaire, is to have
a new trial will probably be known
within day or two. The motion for
q new trial, on the ground of newly
discovered evidence. is returnable to-
day. The principal ground urged on
the motion is substantially, that new
evidence has been obtained to show
that Mr.. Rice did not die Of chloro-
form poisoning but instead, died ma
tural death and that Jones, the valet,
since his release here, has made many
statements to persons in Texas, all to
the effect that he never killed Rice.
