Madame Sofie Bernhoft Jebe, former

American league. In this playlet
Madame Jebe will be assisted by her
pupil, Miss Helen Morrow. The Gus

spect of domestic relations, and the
playlet has been localized sufficiently

shown at her two previous public APP
pearances in Topeka, but this will be

MRS. EDDY'S WEALTH.

William L. Curtis the famous globe
trotter and correspondent, writes to
the Chicago Record-Herald as follows
of Mary Baker Eddy's income and pri-
vate fortune;
According to the estimates of finan-
Cill man in Concord. Mrs. Eddy is
worth about 100000, which is in
vested in Boston and Concord real
estate and in stocks, bonds and mort
cages. Her home is valued at $40, 900.
1t is believed that she has between
100000 and 100000 in mortgages
and an equal amount in gilt-edge Sc
curities. She keeps a balance of about
$4,000 cash in the bank.
Her income Is believed to be about
S1OO.O a year, and is derived from
interest upon investments and from
the sale of her books, which are pub
lished from her own printing estab-
lishment in Boston. She has sold not
less than $4,000 copies of Science
and Health" at S5 copy since it was
written, and the sale is still very large.
1t has passed through many editions.
Her next best seller is a volume
of miscellaneous writings which has
run through eight or 10 editions with
total number of about 100000 vol
umes. which have brought her SO
each. Her "Retrospection and In
trospection" has sold almost as well
and has probably reached 100000
copies.
Mrs. Eddy is the largest taxpayer in
Concord and is assessed at $4,000.
There has been some complaint that
this is too small. and 1 understand
that they are going to raise her as
sessment to $4,000.
She is the most public-spirited citi-
zen of Concord and has given away
more money for the welfare of the
people than any other. She built the
Christian Science church upon one Of
the most prominent corners, just a
step from the statehouse. at cost
of about $3.50, 900. 1t is of rock faced
granite. with a noble tower, in which
is hanging one of the sweetest sets of
chimes ! have ever heard.

ENFORCEMENT AT LAST.

Enforcement of the Sunday closing
law in Umatilla county arrived today,
on the slow train, three years behind
time. This slow train has been
marked due" on the bulletin board
of public sentiment a number of times
but always something unforeseen has
happened to prevent Its arrival.
A large list Of anxious passengers
have been waiting for the arrival Of
the belated train and can scarcely be-
lieve that It has at last rolled in.
As the East Oregonian has said re-
peatedly in the past three or four
years 1t is not the province Of offic-
ials in office to argue the merits Of a
law. when its enforcement is in ques-
ton. The place to make the law is
in the legislature. II It is on the
statute books, it should be enforced,
let the "chips fall where they will"
II the people wish to change it let
them begin with the legislators whom
they elect to make laws.

IN THE DAWN.
+*+++++++++++ = = + = - 4

The formation of the mountains and
the growth of timber in Umatilla
county all indicate recent upheaval
or creation, as it were. None of the
highest mountain peaks show signs of
any great exposure to the sunlight.
Compared to the life of the world,
this section is BUT a babe in arms,
a recent addition to the land area of
the world.
We are yet in the dawn of creation,
from physical standpoint; the fore
noon of the worlds life has not yet
passed. The western mountain peaks,
imposing and splendid as they are.
are recent creations in the art gallery
of the world. They have been placed
on their pedestals but short time.
Their greatest trees. the pride of
the world, are but infants. The soil
in which these trees are growing is
yet fresh and Uniformed. 1t is filled
with non-decomposed elements indi-
eating recent formation.
government geologist who recent
ly explored number of water sources
for the water commission of Pendle-
ton. expressed surprise at the newness
of this section. He said that it was
so new and unstable, from a geological
standpoint, that it is impossible for
geologists to follow it's indications with
any degree of certainty. In older
formations there are certain fixed
principles, certain known relations up
on which scientists can build their
theories and by which they can de-
termine upon water supplies and min
eral wealth.
the Blue mountains offers entirely
new problems to geologists.
In speaking of the general forma-
ton Of the Pacific slope this same
geologist said to the East Oregonian
that the oldest point of land yet dis
covered west of the Mississippi river
is a peak of the Big Horn mountains
overlooking the home of Buffalo
Bill" in the Big Horn basin. This
peak, he declared, shows signs of older
plant life, older rock formations,
longer exposure to the sun. than any
other known. point of land west of the
Mississippi river and is marked by a
government monument.

USING THE JAPS.

A Galveston dispatch to the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat says that %
of the largest lumber mills in Texas
and western Louisiana, have agreed to
use japanese labor to the exclusion
of the negroes and the Mexicans.
Labor troubles with the blacks and
Mexicans are said to have cost the
lumber interests of east Texas and
western Louisiana over S1,75O,000 in
the past 90 months.
Some months ago 1t was agreed to
experiment with Japanese labor, and
the plan has proved a great success.
1t was found that one Jap does as
much work as two negroes and nearly
as much as three Mexicans. They are
steadier, less troublesome and sober,
and are to be paid the same wages as
the best unskilled laborers. From
5000 to 1000 can find employment in
the timber districts.
The only problem that confronted
the mill owners was to secure enough
Japanese. But agents from Japan
have arranged for transferring several
thousand Japanese from the western
states to Texas to supply the demand.

PENDLEToN'S OFFERING.

The fact that Pendleton is county
seat of Umatilla county and the trad
ing center and distributing point for
the rich section lying adjacent in
Umatilla, Morrow and Grant counties,
should be a sufficient inducement for
homeseekers to come here, IL they but
knew these facts.
The fact that the government irri-
cation project containing 10000 acres
of excellent land is tributary to Pen
dleton, and will soon be opened to
settlement. should be another reason
for homeseekers buying a ticket to
Pendleton, if they knew of this con-
dition.
The matter of advertising the re-
sources of a county and a community
among strangers, is an art and must
be conducted by experts in advertis-
ing to bring results. Some home
seekers are attracted by one feature,
some by another, and it seems to the
idea for Umatilla county people to
pursue in advertising this county in
their private letters and printed mat
ter, is to hammer the small irrigated
farm idea into the minds of home
seekers.
1t seems that Umatilla county Of
fers that feature stronger than any
other which will attract men with
| families and but small means. 1t is
possible to secure a small farm and
bring it under cultivation in the ir-
rigated districts on small capital and
the returns begin to come back quick
| ly. 1t furnishes almost immediate re-
suits and is self-supporting from the
first year.
1t may become tiresome to business
men to always be talking about ad-
vertising the county, but that is our
only hope. We need people who will
bring their families and live upon the
land.
The development in the wheat dis
tricts is at the highest point now
Land of that class is too high priced
to appeal to small farmers and so the
talisman which we must use to fasci-
nate and attract settlers is the irri-
gated farm, the intensified farming
methods by which waste land is made
highly productive and by which fami-
lies are supported and given hand
some income from a small investment
The German farmer in the Free
water district who kept his family
and put s1017 in the bank in one year
on four acres, must be the ideal OF
the new settler in this community.

ANIMALS "SEA SICK"

A naturalist has made some inter-
esting observations as to the way vari-
Gus animals behave on board ship.
The polar bear he says, is the only
one that takes to the sea, and is quite
happy when aboard ship. All others
violently resent a trip on water, and
give vent to their feelings as long as
they are able.
The tiger suffers most of all. The
mere sight of a ship makes him un-
comfortable. and when on board he
whines pitifully and his eyes water
continually.
Horses are bad sailors, and often
perish on a sea voyage. Oxen are
heroic in their attempts not to give
way. Elephants do not like the sea-
but with medical treatment suffer lit
tie inconvenience from trip on the
ocean.

in the labor market of the state, says
the Chicago Record-Herald.
Men of their race, who present a
strange and curious type to most
Americans, may be seen a. work now
on the railroads of California. They
are made conspicuous even at a dis
tance by their turbans, and without
this queer headgear they would appear
on n closer inspection TO be very diff
ferent from other oriental or Europe
an immigrants.
Up to the present time their en-
trance into the labor field has caused
no excitement, and it is probable that
there are very few of them in Calfor-
mia. \ gang here and there makes
an impression on the traveller without
being noticeable because Of its size.
But there is u population of 294,-
S61,0 in India, an area of 1,766,642
square miles, as against a population
that is probably considerably
less than 4OO,OOO,OOO, on an
area of 1,5S2,42O square miles in
China, and a population of 47,0OO, 900
on an area of 147,655 square miles in
Japan.
1t is obvious, therefore. that if the
Hindus should take to emigrating
there are enough of them to bring
about a new development in our i'm
migration problem. The idea of ex-
clusion might be broadened so as to
apply to all eastern Asiatics, and it is
certain that large labor invasion
from any Asiatic country would pro-
duce just such an agitation as result
ed in the laws barring out the Chi
nese.

FLOUR MILLS IN GREECE.

Consul General George Horton, of
Athens, reports that there are in
Greece 81 flour mills, IA of which are
located at Piraeus and Athens. All
these use oldfashioped millstones,
with the exception of four that have
introduced the more modern cylinder
system. The daily output of all these
mills is about $4,000 okes q oke
equals 2.S pounds. Russian hard
wheat is mostly used. This year, How-
ever, owing to its high price, consid-
cradle hard wheat was imported from
America.

JONES PAYS THE FREIGHT"

one of Nampa's business men got
in a plate glass window yesterday for
which he paid s84.35 in Portland. The
glass and crate weighed few hundred
pounds. He was, therefore considera-
bly, surprised to find that the railroad
company had charged him with 5000
pounds. making the freight bill $74,
or almost az much as the glass cost.
At this rate people will have to return
to the style of window glass used by
our grandfathers, six by eight inches.

SALTON SINK DRYING UP.

With the final closure Of the Col
orado river, the great Salton Sink,
which was inundated as the result OF
poorly constructed headgate of an
irrigation canal and rapidly converted
into an inland sea, will gradually dry
up. Inasmuch as there are practically
no outlets for this vast body Of water,
the sink must naturally evaporate to
dryness. According to one opinion,
the salton sea will dry UP in about
eight years.
