Oregon's land sales and cone
tribution 10 the reclamation fund
for the year ending June g0
1907, exceeds all other states
leading the next highest c0mDe-
titor North Dakota, by over
100000.
Notwithstanding the agitation
in land circles in Oregon during
the past year. Oregon's sales
amounted 20 81, 429. 760. all Of
which sum viii go into the re-
clamation fund. This amount
derived from Oregon land sales
in one year. almost equals the
total amount so far appropriated
for Oregon irrigation projects by
the reclamation department
Next years sales win exceed /
this years and yet there Is mol
furtherprospect OF appropriations
for Oregon arid lands. Thus ISL
shown the only seeming injustice
Of the reclamation law the fall /.
ure TO use at least a large share
Of the proceeds in states in which 4
the funds originate, Oregon will'
fatten the reclamation fund. and
yet the state win famish in irri-
cation development by the gov
ernment.
In the remote future, perhaps
the John Day project, the NAL
heur project and the Silyies river
project will be accepted by the Z
government and funds approDri- q

N~elghbcrs at Worship Divided Over a
ShIninu Silver Piece.

In a certain Denver church on
Thanksgiving day a bright new half
dollar was noticed in the aisle by a
woman in one of the pews. She was
wondering how she'd get it. and. glanc-
ing around To see if her discovery had
been noticed, she saw a woman direct.
" behind looking at the coin. The
first woman feared the second would
beat her TO it," SC she put her hand
over f,pr mouth and whispered:
How shall / get hat half dollar
just duspped."
"Yoa didn't drop that dropped it,"
replied the other.
The women we're both wondering
how to get the half dollar when a man
came along with the contribution box.
AS he offered her the box a woman
across the aisle from the other two
said to him:
Il iust dropped a half dollar IN the
floor. Would you be so kind as to
hand II to me?"
The man picked it up and gave it 10
her. Yhe other two women, although
they are neighbors, haven't spoken TO
each other since.

psred from pure ingredients, it will
cure any cough that is durable.
Take half n Virgin Oil of Pine

half pint good whisky. Shake well
and use in teaspoonful doses every
four hours.
The ingredients can be secured
from any good prescription druggist

ALLEGED VIOLATION.
Barber Charged With Practice Pro-
hibited by Regulations.

The practice stated to be in vogue in
nearly every barber shop In the city of
treating the faces of customers for ap-
parent skin diseases, in violation Of the
regulations for the control of barber shops
of the District of Columbia, Is to be Wig
orously prosecuted by Assistant Corpora
ton Counsel Pugh. Section Is of the
regulations provides that mo barber shall
undertake to treat any disease of the skin"
While this regulation is placarded in the
shops by order of the Commissioners, It
is stated that upon many occasions It is
violated by the barber shop employees. The
matter came to the attention of Mr.. Pugh
yesterday, when William Conner called at
the office of the assistant corporate coun-
sci and comp lained that Gus Kline who
it is stated, conducts a barber shop near
9th street and Pennsylvania avenue had
charged him 60 cents for a shave and the
application of some kind of ointment to his
face as a treatment to improve the condi-
ton of the cuticle.
not looking for a warrant for the viola
tor of the health department regulations
so much as he was to obtain redress for
the barber charging him such an amount
for the shave and the application of the
ointment. The assistant corporation coun-
sci, 1t Is stated, ELECTED the Information
that the barber applied the ointment as a
treatment and he had Conner swear to
an information charging the knight of the
razor with a violation of the regulations
rms paper was at once sent to the office
OF Clerk Potts, and 1t was stated that a
warrant will be issued probably this after
noon.

SENTENCE SUSPENDED.
Leniency Shown Young Man Upon
Intercession by Agent Massie.

Floyd P. Johnson seventeen-year-old
boy hailng from Norfolk, Va, stood before
Judge Mullowny in the United States
branch Of the police court today charged
with the larceny of bicycle valued at s34
from Edward c. Mooney, who resides In
the southwest section of the city. Upon
the solicitation Of Agent Massie of the
Prisoners Aid Society, who, 1t was stated,
had investigated his record, he entered a
plea of guilty to the charge and asked for
the mercy of the court. 1t was stated that
the young man came to this city several
days ago in search of work, and being I'M
able to find anything to do took the bicycle
with the intention of selling it to get
money until he would be able to earn his
living. He was detected and placed under
arrest by Policeman Rollins of the fourth
precinct station. Agent Massie became in
terested in the boy on account of his youth
and apparent innocence Of intentioal wrong
doing and upon his solicitation at the
close Of the case in court today Judge
Mullowny suspended sentence and placed
the boy in Mr.. Massies charge.
Later the young man left the court house
with Agent Massie and will doubtless leave
for Norfolk late this afternoon.
