SOME excellent cartoons appear
ing lately in various state papers
are the work of Vim. M. Allen OF
Houston, who has shown artistic
ability of high order in that line,
although he is but an amateur.
One of the best of Mr.. Allen S
productions was cartoon in We'd
uesday's Houston Post, which call

ing San Jacinto battle-ground into
a state park. The Texas flag con-
Stituted the main figure of the IL
Illustration with a pointed reminder
beneath it calling on the solons,
while remembering the Alamo and
Goliad, to remember San Jacinto
also; and that it would require but
a few thousand dollars to trans
form the historic battle-ground in

who by the way is the son of J.
H. Allen now of Brownsville, has
been very highly complimented
upon his work, and he gives prom

The Life Of Bells.

Comparatively few people know
that ringing a bell ruins it. That
is, bell has definite length Of life,
and after so many blows viii break.
A 900 pound bell, struck blows of
17S foot pounds of force, broke
after 1000 blows. A 1000 pound
bell broke after $4,000 blows of $50
foot pounds force. A steel compost
ton bell weighing 1000 pounds
broke after twenty-four blows of
$50 foot pounds, but its makers said
it was calculated for lighter blow.

DIRTY AIR.
There Are Two Forms Of ImPurity,
Gaseous and Solid.


The Importance of ventilation
and of a constant supply of fresh
air in living rooms, whether sleeping
or waking, has often been insisted
upon. Without air life is impossi-
bic, and unless that air be moder-
stely pure health cannot be main
tanned, although it is astonishing
and a proof of the wonderful
adaptation of living beings to their
environment to note how great an
amount of contamination of the air
can be borne with seeming impuni-
ty.
There are two forms of impurity
in the air-gaseous and solid. The
gases, those resulting from exhala-
lions from the lungs, and in city
houses from the little unnoticed
leaks from the gas pipes and from
defective plumbing, are the most
injurious. For the removal of these
free ventilation through open win
dows and open freplaces is most
efficacious. But it is of little serv-
ice in the removal of the other kind
of impurity-that is to say, the
solid particles of matter-dust-
which are always floating in the air
of houses as well as in that of the
streets.
A beam of sunlight entering
through half closed shutter makes
visible this dust, and as one looks
with startled eyes on the beam
which lights up the floating parti-
cles the wonder grows that the
lungs are not made solid by this
stream of dust flowing in with every
breath. Fortunately the nose and
the moist lining of the air tubes are
designed to filter the air by arrest
ing these particles before they can
enter the delicate air chambers of
the lungs. They do their work well,
but not perfectly, and the greater
the amount of dust the more they
fail in their function.
Workmen engaged in dusty trades
heaters, coal miners, pot
tiers, grinders, felt workers-often
acquire disease of the lungs from
the inhalation of dust.
Dust particles are injurious not
only mechanically, but also and
chiefly because they act as carriers
of disease germs.
Since it is impossible to remove
dust entirely by ventilation, it is
necessary to do what is practicable
to prevent its dissemination through
the air. Settled dust is ugly, but
But when the well
but ignorant housewife
fops it into the air with a feather
duster she only rouses the sleeping
lion. Brooms and feather busters
are relics of barbarism and should
be banished. The damp cloth for
furniture and the mop and carpet |
sweeper for floors, or, best of all,
the vacuum process, are the modern
civilized agents of cleanliness. These
gather up the dust and do not sim
ply scatter it in the air, where it is
invisible, but pernicious.-Youth's
Companion.

new WHITMAN CATALOGUE
MAKES SPLENDID SHOWING

Registration from IA states is shown
in the new catalogue of Whitman col
lege, just received from the printers.
Washington has "a representation of
2S5. Oregon. 80 and Idaho 16. Eleven
other states have students at the local
center of learning. In all the regis
tration is 35S. divided as follows: col
lege, 1870; academy. 146 and conser
vatOry ISL
While this registration in total is
not as large as that of last year. one
thing is noticeable. That is the fact
that the college proper has grown.
More emphasis is to be put on the
college hereafter and while the prepa-
ratory department and the musical
school are not to be neglected, the
college proper will receive more at
tenton than heretofore.
Catalogues are being mailed to stu
dents asking for them. Many new stu
dents are already in sight and the
registration this year promises to
be bigger than ever before.

RI EIAG N WILD RUNAWAY ITO BUILD IMMENSE MILL
Trolley Construction Car Beyond
Control in Portland

PORTLAND, July 9.-Passing be-
yond the control of it's crew, car No.
go, a huge construction car of the
Portland Railway, Light & Power COM
pany. started on Ford street, Portland
Heights and after a wild runaway trip
jumped the track at Fifteenth ana
Washington streets, where its load OF
lumber was scattered about the street.
The car caught fire on it's wild trip
and both the conductor and motorman
were badly burned. Their injuries,
however! are not considered serious,
though both jumped from the runaway
car and sustained bruises.
The crew stayed with the car until
it had descended the steep hill from
Portland Heights and started down
Washington street. Motorman H. E.
Crawford jumped as the car passed
Twenty third street, but escaped seri-
Gus injury
The runaway is the first that has
occurred on the steep Portland Heights
run. The car ran from Ford street down
the grade to Washington street then
down to Fifteenth Although it was
on the up tracks and on its runaway
flight followed the tracks used by out
going cars there was no collision. The
Washington street tracks are used By
three lines. and how it happened that
no car was on the tracks at the time
nd 1iria
The runaway is said to have resulted
from the failure of the magnetic brake
to work. AS the car was passing alonS
Ford street there was occasion to use
cred it was out of order He tried
Vainly to bring the huge car to a stop
but failed.
1t sped wildly down the hill with
both the motorman and conductor using
every means in their power to stop it
as it rounded the curve into Washing
ton street the car struck a horse at
tached to delivery wagon of Ben Sell
ing. The driver saw the approaching
car and was able to almost avoid the
collision. Consequently neither the
horse nor wagon was seriously dam
aged.
The fire which started from the wir-
ing of the car grew as it sped down
the tracks until the flames almost over
spread the car. The motOrman and
Conductor Crawford were burned in
their efforts to stop the car Mr.. Craw-
ford was severely burned on the face
and shoulders and his hair was badly
burned.
AS the car started to round the curve
at Fifteenth street it was hurled from
the track by the momentum it had
gained. 1t was lifted clear of the
tracks and thrown on it's side 80 or
more feet away. The load of lumber
which it carried was scattered about
the street.

:"JEFF" HANDS OUT BIG JOKE
Champion Thinks Tommy Burns Can
Viii , Him

PORTLAND, July 9.-Nothing could
be more funny to friends of Jim JEFF
fries than that he believes Tommy
Burns can beat him if ever they are
to meet. Those that know the inner
heart of the big fellow, however, say
that this is So 1t will raise a big grin
on the face of the fight fan when this
is mentioned. They will not believe
that the Burbanker takes himself so
cheaply. Nevertheless, his crOnies say
it is true, as also is their allegation
that Jim never entered the ring for
contest without believing that he was
about to get the licking of his life.
This accounts for Jeffries' marvel.
Gus training stunts, his long prepara
tons, and also, for the fact, perhaps,
that he has completely fooled so many
great and clever opponents. Jim :
heart is so big that he can see moth
ing but other mems merits and pow
ers, and his own weakness and failings
1t is this humble way of looking at
himself that entities Jim Jeffries to
some consideration as a man with the
real germs of greatness within his
physical and mental makeup. He Ia
bors with his fears. He has known
what it is to be afraid even of some
of the opponents he has badly beaten.
1t is said that when Jeffries saw
Jack Johnson hand his brother a terri
BILE beating, Jeff made up his mind
never to meet the colOred champion.
In private life Jeff has a hobby that

ing world. The former champion be-
lieves that the future of America as
the greatest civilization the world has
ever seen can only be assured by the
teaching of natural purity to the rfs-

fine belief he has attended meetings
held in various centers throughout the
states for the promotion of purity and

TWO CONv|CTs LEAVE PRISON
Tired Of Humdrum Life They Break
for Liberty

break in the dull monotony of pri-
son life was afforded the inmates of
the Walla Walla penitentiary yesterday
by the escape of two convicts.
The men left separately. The first
to leave was w. H. Davis. a coored
prisoner, who had only two months
more to serve. He was a trusty and
had charge of the prison hounds. AT
$50 yesterday morning he started out
to exercise the dogs and at about 4: 30

dogs were found on the Ennis ranch

The other convict to leave Yesterday
was Joe Kelley, convict No. 372S who
was sentenced April IL, 1906 to three
years and six months. He belonged tn
the railroad gang which was employed
in laying a spur a short distance west
of the prison. At the time Kelley made
his escape he was hidden from sight
of the other men by a bluff. His es-
cape, however, was discovered wIynin
20 minutes after he left. Though
search was Immediately prosecuted he
had not been located this morning.

and blue eyes. He has evidently been
fighter in his day as his forehead
is covered with scars and cut in his
throat causes an impeachment in his
speech. He is minus one or two upper
teeth.

night that man answering the de-
scrirtion of Kelley had been seen at a

Weyerhaeusers Plan to Operate
Clearwater Timber

MOSCOW, Ida. July 9.-The Weyer-
haeusers are evidently preparing for
large operations in their Clearwater
timber belt and will probably locate
their mills at the junction of Oronno
and Wlliskey creeks. A party OF sur
veyors in their employ are now at
Orofino engaged in the survey of a
milsite and a townsite at the forks of
these creeks. 1t is understood the en-
gineers will also make the necessary
survey for large dam across Orofno
creek below the junction of the two
creeks for the purpose of creating
log pond. A survey for spur from the
line of the Northern Pacific to the mill
site will also be made.
The Weyerhaeusers, under the name
of the Clearwater Timber company,
have immense holdings of fine TIM
Der lands. mostly on the north forH
of. the Clearwater. Something like
1OOO 900 acres of their holdings in that
section was obtained by the use of
the Northern Pacific forest reserve
scrip.
The legality of these scrip selec-
tons was questioned and many pro-
posed settlers filed contests against
them, but the commissioner of the
general land office and the secretary OF
the interior in succession have held
for the railroad company. and the fact
that an appeal to the supreme court
is now pending apparently has not de-
tered these timber magnates from go
ing ahead with their plans for large
operations In addition to the acreage
obtained by the use of scrip the com
pany has been a heavy buyer from pri-
vate individuals.
1t is said the plans now under con-
sideration provide for the erection of
the largest milling plant in the world.
The same capitalists, practically, un-
der the name of the Potlatch Lumber
company, now have in operation at
the town of Potlatch, Is miles north
of Moscow. what is claimed to be tire
largest single lumber mill in the world,
with capacity of 100000 feet per
day. The proposed Clearwater mill. it
is said, will exceed this considerably.
