Value of Sprinters.

ceives many peculiar ideas. The
Baker City Herald credits Repre-
sentative Farrell of Multnomah
county of placing a value oi
$I2S, 900 on Dan Kelly, the not
ed 1oo-yard man. The claim is
made that Kelly is worth that
to the state of Oregon.
The Herald goes on to state
that Baker has the first and only
Legitimate claim on Kelly. Ia

to get busy or it will lose its
houors in that connection. Kelly
holds the worlds record aud Ba-
ker county should not overlook
the valve that young man is to
this community. He is the best
advertisement that we have had
for many moons. Dan is good
natured aud does not mind in the
least being made an ADVERTISE

get busy and use him.
Portland has a habit of claim
ing every famous athlete turned

sHocklNe!
FoNer Wire Give!
Frank CressweiI 10000 Volts.

The following account of what
did happen and what might have
happened a Benton county boy is
given in the Albany Hcrald of
Saturday:
Living senseless on the very
edge of the high pier which sup
ports the Benton county end of the
Albany steel bridge, Frauk Cres-
well, the fifteen year old son ol
John Cresswell, was found yester
dav afternoon by Linemen Kyle
and Conn of the Home Telephone
Company.
So close to the edge of the
pier was the seemingly inanimate
form of the youth, that the
slightest movement would have
precipitated him to the earth. 80
feet below, where he would IN
dou btedly have been killed
Ten thousand volts from the
powerful electric current of the
Willamette Valley Company's
wires to Corvallis, had passed
through young Creswell's body
as he was standing on top of the
iron pier preparatory to descenn-
ing to the ground. The youth
was alone at the time and the
exact circumstances are not yet
known except as he related them
last night to the physician in
charge, at St, Mary's hospital.
According to the story of Cres-
we'll, ne bad started to climb
down the pier of the bridge to
the ground, intending to reach
the top Of the pier and then slide
down one of the steel supports to
the bridge, and his feet were
resting on the pier. To secure
his balance he had hold of the
bridge. Reaching almost invol-
UNFAIRLY and without thought OF
the consequences, his left hand
grasped the wire of the VILLAIN
cite Valley Company, that con-
ducts the electricity to Corvallis,
and the entire 10, 600 volts passed
through his body. He sank i'm
mediately to the pier, where he
lay unconscious until found.
The electricity passed through
the left arm and entered the pie,
through his right foot. So pow
eriul was the current the boy
LETT hand where he grasped the
wire was fea fully burned, so thai
when his clutch was loosened
from the fatal wire, the flesh ad.
hered to the wire, The sole OF
Creswell's shoe was burned com,
pietely off by the electricity, and
he will lose the toes of his right
loot.
| D1. Wallace, the attending
physician, stated last night that
while the boys condition was
serious, his system having receiv.
ed a terrible shock, it is believ-
ed he will recover. Young Cres.
well lives with his parents, Mr.,
and Mis-. John Cresswel], shor,
distance from the Benton county
end of the Albany steel bridge.
A coincident related in connec.
ton with the finding of Cress.
we'll by Mr.. Coun, is. that no,
long ago Mr.. Conn saved Cres
we'll from drowning.

The Old Time "Pfr."

Pip is just one symptom in disease.
1t is just a dry tongue. Never try to
remove the dry covering of the tongue.
Better hunt the real trouble and cure
that. A ''pippy" tongue is seen in
bronchitis, pneumonia-in fact, in all
diseases Of the air passages, says
writer in American Poultry Advocate.
One thing l am sure of-that is, that
boiled potato skins never produce trou-

is drying quality enough in these skins

AS Fam iliarly Known.

Ia every community there are
found individuals who, for some
known or unknown reason, are
given "nicknames." Often some
peculiarity of speech or gait may
cause man to carry some peril
nent cognomen to his grave.
Some men become so accus-
toned to answering to a "nick-
name" that it would be surpris-
if they did not forget their bap-
tismal name. Nor is this custom
applied exclusively to any section
of the country or to any particu-
lar class. In this respect at least
the plebeian fares as well as the
patrician. See how it goes with
our United States Senators.
Mr.. Lodge, of Massachusetts,,
used to be spoken of as "The
Scholar" but since the telephone
incident at the last sessisn certain
irrevent Senators have named
him Central" Mr.. Crane,
Lodges colleague, is "Slender
William" ard Knox of the Key
stone State, with whom he is on
very intina ate terms is called
"Little Phil" Mr.. Knox and
Mr.. Crane are about the same
size, and although their seats are
far apart, they are almost insep-
arabic companions. Probably
after March q they will arrange
to secure adjoining seats.
Neither one weig hs much over
100 pounds.
Mr.. Cullom. of Illinois, is
"Jncle Abe," because of his al
legged resemblance to Mr.. Lin
coin. Mr.. Gallinger, of New
Hampshire, is called "Mayor"
on account of his position as
chairman of the District commit
tee. Some Senators also address
him as ''Doc:" as he is medi-
cal graduate.
Mr.. Beveridge, of Indiana, fig
ures as the "Boy Orator" and
The Wasp of the Wabash. I"
Mr.. Allison is known as "Soft
Pedal" --.....
| Mr.. Carter, Of Montana, is
known as "Uncle Sam" by rea-
son of his whiskers. Mr.. Clark,
his colleague, is "Tne Copper
King" and "Croesus. He is
said to Le the richest man in the
Senate. Mr.. Money. of Missis-
lsippi, who said the other day
that he waa probably the poores'
member OF the Senate, is referred
to as "The Discoverer." Hi:
middle name is De Soto.
| Mr.. Pettus, the Oldest membe
of the Senate, is "Old Confucius.'
Many Senators believe that he i
even wiser than the Chinese phil
osopher of that name.

Homemade Catarrh Cure.

Anyone can mix right at home the
best reEedy of its kind known The
name "Cyclone" is gwen TO the follow
ng prescription, it is supposed becE use
of its promptness in driving from the
blood and system every vestige of ca
tarrhal poison, relieving this foul and
dread disease, 20 matter where located
To prepare the mixture: Get from any
good pharmacy one-half ounce fluid ex-
tract danda!ion, one ounce compound
kargon and three ounces compound
syrup sarsapGrilla. Shake well and use
in teaspoonfu, doses after meals at bed
time.
This is harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has a peculiar action upon
the eliminative tissues of the kidneys
assisting them to filter and strain from
the blood and system all catarrhal poi
sons, which, If not eradicated, are alb
sorbed by the mucous membrane, and
an open sore or catarrh is the result.
Prepare some and try it, as it is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh spe-
cialist of national reputa ton. IL
