1t seems that w. H. Galvani OF
Portland, has stumbled upon the true
origin Of the word, Oregon" which
has puzzled philologists for all these
years. He suggests that the first
Spanish explorers coming to the coast
noticed the resemblance between this
land and their own old Arragon and
that the word "Arragon" was finally
corrupted by the Yankee in Oregon.

How to Clean Goatskins.

There are two methods Of cleaning
white goatslzin rugs, both equally eff
fective First remove the lining from
the rug To four gallons Of lukewarm
water add half a pint Of aqua ammo
mia. Stir the rug about IN this prepa-
ration several times for half an hour,
then rinse it thoroughly in warm clean
water and hang it III the shade to dry.
When dry, the rug will be stiff. Give
it a vigorous rubbing between your
hands to soften tt The second method
is to get d large quantity Of gasoline
and wash the rug in it. If it evaporates
too quickly, mix pure soapsuds with It.

How to Prevent Potato scab.

Recent Investigation has shown that
potato scab is fungous disease and
that the fungus may exist in the soil
or on tie seed. Soils containing large
quantities Of manure are particularly
likely 10 produce scabby tubers; hence
only commercial fertilizers should be
used for potato crop, says the st.
Louis Post Dispatch. Seed potatoes
that appear to be free from scab may
be laden with spores Of the scab fun
gus. Both seab and spores are de-
stroyed by soaking seed two hours in a
solution Of eight ounces of fornlalin in
fifteen gallons of water shortly before
planting. Where a large amount of
seeG is to be treated a large vat hold
ing several bushels is best for this pur-
pose Another convenient method is to
use a barrel with one head knocked
out. Place the potatoes in a bag and
lower into the fornalin solution by
means Of d rope and pulley secured
above the barrel When soaked long
enough, pull up and allow potatoes to
drain. preventing waste of solution.
DO not place treated seed with I'M
treated or III crates where untreated
potatoes have been. as contamination

CHILDREN's D7ESS.
The Newest Fashions For Small Hoys
and Girls.


I Never has there been time when
children have been dressed 50 Iaintiiy,
simply and healthfully As now. From
the babe in arms to the young girl just
ready to ..do up her hair the plan Is
first for health and next beauty. Times
have changed since the poor little baby
was tightly bound in Il long bandage
I and wrapped in many petticoats, each
with a doubled band pinned as tightly
as II could be around the soft body I'M
til it was like d mummy for stiffness.
And the bare little arms and necks!
| Ii is a wonder how any Of our mothers
and fathers lived to grow up. Now
there Is d soft woolen shirt with long
sleeves. a barrow coat with a flexible
band. a petticoat which hangs from the
shoulders and, last, the dress. which IS
as dainty and pretty as fingers can
make it. but with long sleeves and
| high in the neck. There are no more
dinlpled elbows in sight, it is true, but
| health and safety first and baby pref
tiness afterward Besides, it Is no
| longer the fashion to show off babies
| as folks used to think necessary. Baby
now eats, bathes and sleeps by rule,
ana when he takes his outing. which is
now given him in all weathers, he is
so covered that his own father would
scarcely know him. He has a regular
1 little sleeping bag made of fur, and ba-
by is slipped down into this, and with
mittens on the mites of hands and q
| warm. close hood he is happy and
comfortable.
Nainsook. batiste and sheer lawn are
the materials for the small man and
/ woman. There is less embroidery, more
featherstitching and some lace. For
the outdoor garments soft silk makes
the best coat, but naturally in bad
weather it should be lined and wadded
! over the shoulders, as the sleeping bag
does not keep them warm, only the
body and legs.
After the child can walk the gar

TREATMENT OF BITES.
How to Handle stinss Of Insects and

Snakes In Emergency Cases.
Spider, tarantula, scorpion and cent?
ped bites and stings are not usually
fatal in temperate climates unless in
the case of children or if the bite or
sting is near the throat. They often
cause severe symptoms, but free per-
spiration by a hot bath and the drink
ing Of hot water will give relief, says
the Brooklyn Eagle. TO keep the
swelling down cover the bitten part
with fermentation cloths wrung out of
hot water that contains soda. Give a
saline injection to free the alimentary
canal, a mild cathartic and give plenty
of fruit juices to drink,

bite put ligature around the limb
between the heart and the wound,
draw it tight and immerse the wound in
hot soapsuds made with carbolic soap
or soda. Then open the wound and
squeeze it under the water, so as to
encourage free bleeding. Do not suck
it with the mouth, as is so frequently
directed A dry, warm glass inverted
over the wound for short time will
often help by keeping up the bleeding
and washing out the venom or virus.
II it is several hours before the physi7

the ligature every half hour for a short
time, keeping up free perspiration by

Commodity Prices

In February seven groups of needful
articles were advanced in values, while
five groups were decreased, thus leav-
ing the trend of commodity price up
wards. The level on March l was
higher by four-tenths of l per cent than
it was on February /, and there are
no indications that the drift will be
changed this month.
In February thirty-three staples were
advanced, and twenty-three were de-
creased, while forty-eight remained I'M
changed. When parsons are made
with prices on February 1, 1906, 1t is
seen that seventy-one staples are
higher than they were one year ago,
twenty are lower, and fifteen are I'M
changed.
The cost of living is increasing year
by year, regardless of the size of crops,
for breadstuffs and provisions are both
higher, so for that matter Is nearly
everything else included in the lists OF
leading commodities.

Cases like this occur in very large
cities, but even in them a man is sell
dom found dying whom nobody knows,
whom no one claims. Birmingham does
not aspire to any such cosmopolitan

less escape UNPUBLISHED.
Coroner Paris and all the rest of the
county and city officials have done
their full duty, for every possible effort
has been made that would lead to
identification. Publicity has been I'M

this city will be buried in the twentieth
century in a progressive town without
any redress of his grievous wrongs,
without a history, without even a

help for it, no known remedy that can
change the mystery of our streets.

Presidential Nominations.

I'm 1904 many eastern democrats were
in favor of nominating Grover Cleveland
for the presidency" said native of
New York, but now a resident of Biz
mingham Thomas F. Ryan and other
New Workers wen. as delegates to the
st. Louis convention as Cleveland lead
ers. The ex-President was in no sense
a candidate, and has not been at any
time since he left the white house in
1897
Mr.. Cleveland is just 70 years of age.
His admirers had started to organize for
a national demonstration in his honor,
but he learned of the plans and had the
movement stopped. Mr. Cleveland, If he
lives until 1908, will be just year older
than Tilden was when the latter was
the favorite of several states for the
nomination. In 1880 Tilden could have
got the nomination by acclamation had
he been a candidate. He would not allow
his name to be presented to the con-
vention, which met that year in Clncln-

considered a candidate but as the Held
was left open in 1880, three or four aspir-
ants ir, that year were avowed candl-
dates four years later. The 1884 eonVeh-
ton was held in Chicago. Mr. Cleveland
was nominated after a lively contest anu
he was elected, carrying New YORK.
which was necessary, by a majority Oh
a few votes less than 100. Cleveland
was renominated at st. Louis in 1888 by
reclamation but was defeated by BenJa-
min Harrison.
'IIe was again nominated in 1882 and
was elected by a landslide vote.
"A man at the age of Il would be rath-
er old for so strenuous an office as the
presidency, but Cleveland seems to have
a wonderful constitution and would, no
doubt. were he chief magistrate once
more. be able to give the country Wig
orous administration. But he is content
TO rest on his laurels and is absolutely
out of presidential politics. In my opin-
ion Mr.. Bryan will be practically the
unanimous choice Of the convention next
year.
by the way I heard an ex-cabinet OIL
fcer say recently that the executive
duties had become so multifarious III
these modern times that no man less
staIwart physically than Bryan, Roose-

Two Alabama Appointments

Honors are coming to Alabama free
ly nowadays. John H. Bankhead has
been made a member of an inland
waterways commission, and T. G. Bush
has been appointed a member of the
Nobel foundation for the promotion
of industrial peace. Both posts arc
of high honor and national Importance.
Both appointees are personal selections
of President Roosevelt, and both ap-
pointments come unsought. These two
Alabamians are placed where they can
serve the people of this district. MI.
Bankhead can be trusted to keep an
eve on the Warrior, and Mr. Bush will
never lose sight of the industrial condi-
tons amid which he has wrought in
all the active years of his successful
career.
Alabama Is honored in these two ap-
pointments, and the entire country
will be benefited, for two men better
equipped for their respective tasks
could not readily be found in this
broad land. Both have studied the
questions that will come before them
lifetime. and the President no doubt
knew this when he rendered them ap-
Monuments.

ST. PAUL'S CHURCH
FILLED LAST NIGHT

The Rev. Father Healy of the Paulist
Mission addressed an audience at St.
Pauls church last night that quite taxed
the capacity of the building. The occa-
sion was the beginning of series of
lectures on the doctrine and practice of
the Catholic church, intended chiefly for
non-Cathoics His subject was, rs One
Church as Good as Another"
Just before the lecture the Rev. Father
OHera spoke briefly on the scope and
object of the lecture course. The spirit
of these discussions would be. he stated,
charitable and friendly; that nothing
would be said that could offend those
who differed from Catholics. He said
that non-Catholics who would hear the
lectures would learn from an authorita-
tive source what the Catholic church
really teaches. Many Catholics, he OBJ
served, needed instruction regarding their
church as much as those outside the
fold, and the lectures would be designed
to inform both classes.
Father Healy's theme was rs One
Church AS Good As Another" In his
Introduction he remarked:
Some one has said that indifferentism
Is the religion of the twentieth century;
l say that it is the sin of the twentieth
century" He then gave picture of the
indtfferentist, as he Is familiar to most
of uS-the man who Is always declaring
from the houstops that he is broadminded
and liberal; that he Is not narrow or
bigoted, but believes that there is good
in all churches; in fact, that in the last
analysis one is practically as good as an
other-he himself belongs to the 'lbg
church" Which" Father Healy added,
means no church at ALL
Thus" said Father Healy, docs the
indifferentlst prattle, while before the
world he is convicting himself either of
insincerity or of lack of seriousness. The
inslncere man cloaks over his dishonesty
by a feigned and fashionable liberality,
but any one who seriously reflects upon
his words will not be gully of this in
dfferentism, which is utterly illogical,
glaringly unscriptural, and reduces the
y~lole history of Christianity to a misera-
BILE farce.
'Indlfferentism is utterly illogical. The
various Christian churches are contradict
ing one another on every gospel teaching;
where there is contradiction there is, and
must be error; therefore, to say that one
church is as good as another means to
say that a church that Is teaching error
is as good as a church that Is teaching
the truth; to say that 1t doesn't make
any difference what man believes is
equivalent to saying that it doesn't mat
ter whether a man believes error or
truth.
Imagine" said the speaker. "a man
who calls himself a Christian, saying
that one church Is as good as another,
when st. Paul said to the Galatians
Though an angel from heaven preach
any other gospel unto you than that
which we have preached unto you, let
him be accursed' ;"
The exercises were closed with the bene-
diction of the blessed sacrament.
