A Surprised Gamekeeper.

Bishop Talbot, long and lovingly
known as the "Cowboy Bishop" but
now bishop of Central Pennsylvania
won the devotion of the rough men
of the West because, although hold

whenever principle was concerned,
he was never in the slightest degree

could shoot straight. and ride, and
stand hunger and fatiguc-and was,
In fact, a man among men.
His book of "reminiscences. "My

England. and he himself is warmly
welcomed there whenever he can

were the Duke of Newcastle and the

that the estate. which was one Of

preserves. and so he signified Il desire
to go ont and shoot, whcreupon mis-
host promptly assigned to him the
head gamekeepcr, and the two sailed
forth.
The head gamckceper could not
quite believe that bishop could shoot
he did not know that Bishop Tai

"I move, sir" spoke up the one
who, out Of dozen clamoring for

said, are entitled to have their tick

What Were They Talking About?

The other day a deaf old woman
was talking to deaf old man in a
country town near Chicago. Each was
leaning on a cane and shouting to
the other, while a hand was cupper
at an ear of each. The old woman
was saying:
"That's just what Mirandy was
teiiin' me. She says she's got so

Prince George Of Greece sent him a

occasions had received orders for bicy-

Mr.. Prins was naturally astonish-

New York, May 15.-The Evening

an abstract of the findings of the in

the investigation of the Hartman
roads. The Telegram calls the report

AGAINST ARMORY BILL.
Willamette Valley Grange Seeking
Referendum Vote on 100000 Ap-
preparation.

w. w. Francis of Albany, a member
of the Linn county grange, is in the
city today a guest of L. f. Penland,
while working for a referendum vote
on the armory appropriation of $780,
600 passed by the last legislature.
Mr.. Francis is securing signatures
on petitions asking for a referendum
vote on this appropriation and believes
that sufficient names will be secured
in the state to assure the vote.
He is also working for the referen-
dun vote on the compulsory pass law
which was passed by the last legisla-
ture. The people of Willamette val
ley believe that the legislature deserves
rebuke for its eXtravagances and
that several large appropriations
should be submitted to the people for
a decision.
In speaking of the university prop
osition Mr.. Francis said 1t is the sem
timent Of the grange that more should
be done for the public schools before
such large amounts were appropri-
ated for the state university and on
this ground the referendum vote has
been asked for.
Mr.. Francis is a prominent Odd
Fellow, being treasurer of the grand
lodge meeting at La Grande. He was
formerly grand patriarch of the Ore
gon grand lodge of Odd Fellows and
is a pioneer worker in that order in
the state.

CURE FOR MENINGITIS.
Seattle Physician Discovers New
Treatment.

Cure for malignant cerebro-spinal
meningitis is believed to have been
found in the Rogers therapeutic
lamp and used with success in the two
cases in which it was tried by DR.. F.
A. Churchill of Seattle, says the Ore
gon Daily Journal. Two cases which
under ordinary treatment would
doubtless have proved fatal respond
ed to the treatment at once, and
both patients are now convaliscing.
The lamp used Is 500-candle
power incandescent thera peutic lamp
such as is found in the equipment of
many physicians. The filament is
large and the lamp is provided with
a hood reflector, nickel-plated and
made of copper to increase the light
The lamp may be attached to any
lighting circuit.
1.-THE rays of light" says DR..
Churchill, in explaining the action Of
the treatment, "when applied to the
affected portions, promotes metabu-
lism; that is, the cell action in car
rying off the waste matter and sup
piSiHS new TISSUES. Light is ue-
stroyer of all forms OF germ life, and
the rays from this lamp tend to
promote circulation and strengthen
the health forces OF the blood"
DR.. Churchill applies the lamp by
holding It a foot away from the body
along the spine and neck. A 20
minute application brought rest i'm
mediately to the patient that had
been for four days unconscious. The
patient is now recovering, as is the
only other one where the treatment
has been tried.

laws TO protect the public against
repetitions.
The report concludes that Hartman
is absolute master of the Illinois Cen
trail and so powerful in the Santa Fe
as to prevent competition with his
roads. The combination of the Union
Pacific and Southern Pacific is so
powerful as to suppress all competi-
ton and prevent building the San
Pedro to Los Angeles.
The government may institute many
great suits upon this report to dis
solve the merger of the Union Pacific
and Southern Pacific, and bring
other suits based upon manipulation
of western roads.
