Who reads your life from the cradle
to the grave and is known from sea to
sea as one of the best palmists IN the
world: During the Omaha Exposition
she read the hand of President McKin-
ley and predicted that he would die by
the hands of an ASSASSIN, which predlc-
tion care true. She it was who. while
filing Al engagement at Pittsburg,
traced on the map the famous Beau
mont. Texas, oil fields, and located
what has since proven to be the greatest
oil fields in existence.
While in Toronto. Princess Flora read
the palm of Mr.. John Johnson, who
was on9 of the stockholders in an oil
prospect which was about to be aban-
doned. When she read his hand, she
said, you are interested in an enter
prise located in a westerly direction
from Toronto, which will prove better
than, YOU expect" Mr.. Johnson at
once consulted his colleagues, and they
went to work with renewed energy,
with theresult that oil was soon reached.
Princess Flora is natural clalrvoy
ant and locates stolen and lost articles.
Her powers are simply wonderful She
has been very successful and has fore
told the future of some of the most
prominent people in America. Her
oriental tent, on Carnival grounds, has
been visited this week by some OF the
most prominent people in Newberry,
all of whom pronounce her one OF the
best they have ev'r had to tell their
past. present and future. One. feature
of her reading is the telling OF your
name It matters not whether she has
ever seen you before or not. she can
tell YOU who you are You will regret
it if YOU do not have her read your
palm while she is in Newberry.

Rev. W. l.. Seabrook has sent the
following open letter to the New York
Commercial:
TO the New York Commercial:
On the 23rd inst. the newspaper
correspondents Of Washington sent
out an account Of a visit paid by Rev.
Dr.. J. \. 3. Scherer. president Of
Newberry college, South Carolina. to
President Roosevelt. On the 18th. YOU
editorially cliticise DR.. Scherer for
having talked Of the interview which
he had with the president. Incident
ally and by inuendo YOU impute un-
truthfulness as we'll as folly to Dr..
Scherer in repeating statements made
to {lim by the president. DR.. Scherer
is yet in the north, and I do not know
whether he talked with representa-
tives Of the press of his conversation
with the president. on whether they
received their information from other
sources. or whether. if he did speak of
that conversation, he was reported ac-
curatelv. But whatever the facts IN
thee ase it is not easy to Justify your
criticism, to say nothing Of its venom,
nor to explain it otherwise than on
the ground that YOU took advantage
Of all opportunity to ''impale' Sen
ator Tillman and things southern.
Taking for granted the supposltlon
that Dr.. Scherer did speak Of his in
terview with the president and did re-
peat the substance Of their conversa-
ton, where is the crime Of ''lese maj
eSty' or the folly Of such action on
his part? Suppose the president was
''impolitic' and committed an "in-
discretion,'' why should DR.. Scherer
be expected to sit in judgment upon
his utterances, pity his ''folly'' and
guard the sacredness Of the president
against the buzzing Of the newspaper
gnats? The president was not speak
ing 'in the presence Of his most in
innate friends, - but to a stranger.
His utterances were in no sense con-
fdential nor Of private nature. If
Dr.. Scherer talked Of his conversa-
ton in the presence of newspaper
correspondents or others. there was
no: violation Of confidence. nor impro-
priety. If he did it, he did only. that
which is done every day. by all who
visit the president in an informal
way. Why not speak as freely Of a
conversation with the president, as Of
an informal talk with any other man ?
It is a doubtful compliment to the

BUSY SCENES.
Some Of the Things which En-
liven Corvallis Industrially.

TO the average American whose
commercialism dominates him to
such marked degree. few sou nds
are more agreeable than the roll OF
car wheels, the swash of river craft,
the chuck OF transportation wagons,
the whirr Of saws, the crack of
hammers. the muffled notes of pick
and shovel, all combine to make the
hum Of industry. A walk about the
city of Corvallis will disclose the
activity common to larger cities.
In the neighborhood of the City
Hall, a force of workmen are show
cling earth at lively rate, exca-
waiting for the sewer which is to ex-
tend through two blocks from the
Jefferson main. Workmen are al
50 engaged on. the Harris Miller lat
eral, also to connect with the Jeffer-
son main.
A string of fifteen teams plod
through Main street all hauling
gravel to q half mile stretch of the
Sol King road recently graded.
Other teams are hauling screened
gravel which is shoveled aboard
cars at the foot Of Washington
street to be conveyed to the city's
reservoir. This gravel goes into
the cement which Is to line the res
ervoir. Three teams are engaged
in hauling from the railroad track
to the works.
Six incoming daily trains and a
like number departing lend a part
to the chorus of industry, while the
exhaust of Willamette river steam
boats Is feature of the melody.
1nnumerable farm wagons laden
with products for the creamery, and
dray-loads Of the same, carted from
the depots to the local butter and
Ice cream factory, are very sugges-
tive of the commercial advancement
OF the city.
Forty-five 1aborors with pick aud
shovel working on the streets of
Corvallis to complete the new
mountain water system affords q
glance at our commercial activity
which Is encouraging. Thirty of
these men In line along Main street,
extavating for distributing pipe of
the system presents an inspiring
scene. and dissipates the notion of
want in Corvallis households. The
whole Is an earnest of prosperity.

next week, beginning Sunday after
noon at 2:3O. and continuing through
out the week with the usual Wednes-
day and Saturday matinees. The
scene Of the play is laid in the pic
turesque mountain region bordered by
the California Sierra Nevada noun
tains, giving ample opportunity For
the striking and romantic introduction
OF broad landscape effects. of which
accurate artistic advantage has been
taken to provide a realistic setting for
a powerful, and, in some respects, pc
culiar play. The place, plot and peo-
pie involved are said to afford unusu-
al advantage for the striking and
strongly contrasted display Of MIR.
Kremer's remarkable constructive tall
emf, and the results obtained add to
his popularity with these who clamor
for rapid fire action and volcanic

vorced wife, and believing that the
mothers weakness will develop in

, Death Of Dr.. Edwin Murray.

DR.. Edwin Murray, founder of the
Murray Institute, died at his home,
1919 Nicollet avenue, Friday night of
last week. He was born in Wiscon-
sin, Dec. -, 1861, and while still a
young man came to this city. For
many years he worked as a machin-
list, and was the first engineer in the,
new court house. In 1885 he was mar
ried to Miss Katherine Kirby, and
shortly afterwards, through his inter-
est in medicine and knowledge of
drugs, picked up at spare moments,
he discoyered the cure which made
him famous. Leaving his position as
an engineer and machinist he devoted
his whole time to the study of drugs
and a cure for drunkenness, and es-
tablished an institute at 1912 First
avenue south. Within a few months
he had to seek larger quarters at 1877
Tenth street, and in 1896 moved to
his present location at 1919 Nicollet
avenue. Two other institutes We're
owned and controlled by him, one at
Fargo and the other at Seattle. He
is survived by widow, two sons and
a. daughter, Leonard, Lawrence and
Lillian. He had seven brothers, John
Frank, Ralph, Richard, Thomas and
James, and one sister, Julia, who re-
sides in st. Paul.
His funeral was held Monday morn
ing from the Church Of st. Stephens
where the high requiem mass was at
tended by throngs Of friends.
