RAIN Is SLOW IN COMING.
Hatfield Seems Certain of Results in
sherman.

Wasco's rainmaker claims his
jurisdiction extends over rs miles and
therefore he is probably responsible
for conditions in The Dalles today.
So far he has met with little success
up in Sherman county and has not as
yet put Jupiter Pluvius out of busi-
ness. The Wasco News says of his
operations:
In spite of the fact that no startling
results have as yet been obtained
Charles NJ. Hatfield, the 'rainmaker,"
is still operating en- Gordon Ridge,
and without feeling the least dis
oouragement. On three different days
since operating here he has Witness
ed very cloudy sky. On one of these
days, Friday, May 81, rain was pre-
cipitated along the John Day river
and in the neighborhood of Kent, and
on this same day a heavy rain is re-
ported from Gillian county.
That results so far are rot meas
uring up to his best hopes, Mr.. Hat
field Is willing to admit but after
having been repeatedly successful in
other attempts to produce rain he sees
nothing discouraging in present con-
ditiOns. 1t may be necessary. he says,
to install a stronger plant. a rea-
sonable test with the present one will
have to decide this point But, un-
der any circumstances, Mr.. Hatfield
is confident of satisfactory results.
AS to his methods of procedure,
while they are not to be made public
| 1t is claimed they are purely scien-
tific and based upon the principles OF
law and nature. A combination of
chemical and electrical processes are
involved. What weird and unnatural
conclusions may he drawn Is shown
by the report of an exchange which
asserts that combustibles are shot
high into the air and exploded, on
cloudy days and nights Mt. Hatfield
assisted by his younger brother, ope-
rates continuously, and to produce a
cloudy condition is as much a part
of his task as to produce rain.

KILLING N0X|OUS WEEDS BY SPRAYING

If rain follows the spraying within
few hours the solution will be weak
ened, and the mustard will not be
successfully exterminated. If rain
follows 16 hours after the spraying
the determination will be quite per-
feet. In case of rain two hours af-
ter, so per cent of the mustard will
live to produce seed.
Two days after the spraying, all
that can be found of the mustard is
black powder where the plant stood.
Very little damage is done to the
grain crop by driving over it at this
| time Of the year. In the test made,
strips were left unsprayed in the CEN
ter of the grain fields to prove the
| effectiveness of the experiments. Af-
ter two days the strip stood out dis.
tinct with its yellow blossoms. Where
the spraying was done not a live
| plant could be found.
The spraying machine used for the
tests has the appearance of chem
ical fire engine, but for the fact that
the large copper tank which holds
rs gallons of solution is mounted on q
two-wheeled cart and is drawn by
cpe horse. Pipes filled with numer-
Gus holes extend like arms 10 feet
from each side of the machine. A
fog-like spray is spread over the fielt
from these pipes.

Some Of the church structures re-
Gently built in New York city indicate
that the old-fashioned steeple is not
popular with modern architects. The
Madison Square Presbyterian church,
the pastor of which is Rev. DR.. Chas.
H. Parkhurst, which has an immense
dome, is an example of the new style
of ecclesiastical architecture. Situat-
ed at the corner of Madison avenue
and gath street, it is one of group
Of the most striking buildings in New
York To the southwest, little more
than 100 yards away, is the tall Flat
from: across oath street is the Met
ropolitan Life, one of the largest Of
flee buildings in the world; two blocks
10 the north is the Madison Square
Garden; and across the square is the
Fifth Avenue hotel, the old-time rem
devious of national politicians.
The church proper and the parish
house are Joined so as to form. one
structure. The exterior is of brick
upon a marble base. The floors and
dome throughout, and the partitions
in the parish house are made of terra
Gotta tile blocks, so that absolute
Eafety from fire is assured. The cost

1896, 900.
Another house of worship even
stranger than DIR. Parkhurst's Is the
Broadway Tabernacle Congregation
ALI. at Broadway and 56th street
II has the appearance of a combina'
tion church and office building. 1t Is
also of the most modern fireproo1
construction, being built of steel pro-
fected by hollow terra Gotta blocks
It cost sS50,o0o.
The Tabernacle has tower, bu
not the sort commonly associate
with churches. All of 1t is put to use
On its first floor are the Sunda!
school rooms. Between them and th'
beIfry there is room for all tht
activities of the church organization
Mission rooms and ladies' parlor arr
On the third floor, the young men''

Far outstripping either Of these IL
cost is the First Church of Chris
Scientist, better known as the Chris
tian Science church, at Central Pari
west and 96th street. One million
three hundred thousand dollars wa
spent on this building, exclusive o
the cost Of the land. 1t Is not accu
rate to describe 1t definitely as
church, because it has an organization
that treats the sick, keeping opel
Eeven days in the week. 1t is SAT-
that 5000 persons come there TO

practitioners every year.

inevitable. Strong pressure is being
brought to bear on both sides and it
is hoped that the conflict may be
avoided.
The principal demands of the men
are for an eight-hour day, the aboli-
ton of the sliding scale of wages, and
the reinstatement of discharged union
telegraphers in New York, Louisville,
Nashville, Rochester and other cities.
The national executive board will pre-
sent a statement of the grievances to
the directors of the company. An ulti-
matum will be presented only as a

OREGON HAD LEAST SHEEP LOSS
During 1906, Either by Disease or
Exposure.

1t is interesting to know that the
loss of sheep both from exposure and
disease during the year 1906, was low
er in Oregon than any of the western
states. From a careful estimate the
following percentage is given as the
correct losses sustained by several
western states.

WATCH BUFFALO FIGHT BILL,
Americans See Horrible Spectacle in
 Arena Near Fl Pa>O.

\ dispatch from Fl Paso, Tex, says: It has been seven years since habitues of the border bull rings have witness ed such a brutal display as was seen in the arena at Ciudad JuraeZ, MeXi- co, opposite Fl Paso, last Sunday eve- ming.
 Seven years ago there was q i,dt- tie between a lion and a bull, in which the lion tore the bull to pieces and ate the quivering flesh of the van- quished beast; on this occasion a buf- falo from the plains of North Da- kota battled for life against fierce long -horned bull from the TerraZas ranch in Chihuahua, and both are dead.
 Sunday's battle was worse than the other, for the animals were about evenly matched, and they fought until both dropped in their tracks, their bodies practically torn to pieces. It was a battle that recalled the day of the coliseum at Rome in the time of the Caesars.
 Women-and there was many visi-

 More Americans witnessed the shameful attraction than Mexicans.

Is an ordeal which all
 women approach with indescribable fear, for nothing compares with the pain and horror of childbirth. The thought
