TRAVELLING MANS EXPERIENCE

q must tell you my experience on
an East bound o. R. & N. R. R. train
from Pendleton to LeGrande, Ore,
writes Sam A. CARRIER, a well known
travelling man. Il was in the smoking
department with some other travelling
men when one of them went out into
coach and came back and said, There
is woman sick unto death in the car
l at once got up and went out, found
her very Ill with cramp collie; her
hands and arms were drawn up so
you could not straighten them, and,
with deathlike look on her face. Two
or three ladies were working with
her and giving her whisky. 1 went
to my suit case and got my bottle of
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy Il never travel without
it,, ran to the water tank, put double
dose of the medicine in the glass,
poured some water into it and stirred
1t with pencil; then 1 had quite a
time to get the ladies to let me give
1t to her, bot socceeded. I could at
once see the effect and l worked with
her. rubbing her hands, and in twenty
minutes 1 gave her another dose. By
this time we were almost to LeGrande
where was to leave the train. I gave
the bottle to the husband to be used
in case another dose should be needed,
but by the time the train ran into LIE
Grande she was all right, and l re-
ceived the thanks of every passenger
in the car" For sale by Hays &

lAUMER BREAKS UP
IDE Av. BLOCKADE

=. :. McCrea & Merryweather's re-
monstrance against improvement
of Ide av. whene 1t connects with
Summit boulevard was voted down
by the council last night following
a fight by Nick Laumer, who he
clared that the improvements had
been held up on the request of the
real estate firm for more than Is
months. He declared that Mr.. Mer.
ryweather went to Street Commits
sioner ONO and asked that it be
held up Then the firm purchased
a lot Of property there and the
other property owners, understand,
ing that the purchase was for the
railroad, did not protest at the
work being delayed. But no other
property was purchased and the
improvement was ordered. Then
the remonstranee came and set the
property owners to thinking. The
condition of lde av. al that point is
very bad and the property owners
are compelled to go around to get

clared in his report that the wood

explained last night that the pipe
was dug up for the city engineer to

that 1t was wrapped with thinner

Then the engineer made another
report to the mayor favoring the

take up the wooden pipe and install

that cars should be spotted on re-
quest or the inspectors and said
that they would charge S. for the

the cars before they were ready. In
spector Powell agreed to abolish
the clause and have the wood meas

the cars at it's leaisure, which is
usually not longer than As hours.
The other change was that where

TAKES UP CASE OF
AMERICAN DREYFUS

WASHINGTON, May 13.-The
case of Col William F. Stewart
has been brought before the senate
and referred to the military COM
mittee for investigation. Rayner
presented it and caustically criti-
cised the president for exiting
Stewart to Fort Grant, Arizona,
where he is kept without command
except one soldier. Roosevelt's let
ter on the case was read to the sen
ate. The president justified the
treatment on the ground that Stew
art was quarrelsome and hard to
get along with. Foraker produced
a letter from Stewart asking per-
mission to come to Washington to
defend himself This was denied
him.
Rayner declared that all but one
of the officers who had influenced
the president against Stewart had
been promoted over the latteRs
head. Grant was one of these.

OLD COUNCILS
LAST SESSION
CITY PASSES INTO HANDS OF
REPUBLICAN LEGISLATORS
At SPECIAL MEETING NEXT
FRIDAY MORNING.

With an air of we're glad the
grind Is over" the old council last
night methojically went through
some leftover business and endeav'
ored to clear as much of it out OF
the way of the new council as pos.
sible The new council that will
be installed early Friday morning
will be composed as follows:
First ward, Leonard Funk, dem.
and NJ. B. Watkins, rep: Second
ward, Fred e. Baldwin and John

Estep, rep. (resigned), E. V. Lam
bert, rep. Fourth ward, r. L. Dali
Ike and C. w. Mohr, reps; Fifth
ward, j. S. Phillips and B. R. Os-
trander, reps. The question of who
will be selected to succeed w. G..
Estep has not yet been settled, but
Jake Schiller is strongly men
toned. At a vote of residents of
the Third ward on the question he
was favored.
Councilmen Brown, Pratt and
Laumer, democrats, are the outgo-
ing members. Of the new council
seven are republicans and three
democrats. The lineup of the old
council was five anu five, with
Pratt, democrat, always voting
with the republicans, and Lambert,
republican, evening up matters
somewhat by his learnings toward
the democrats. If Lambert's atti-
tude in the new council should be
the same as in the old, the three
democrats will be given his added
strength. Jake Schiller, who is pro-
posed to succeed Estep, it is claim
ed will vote for the retention of ].
T. ONO as street commissioner
against the will of the mayor and
some of the republicans. With
Schiller, Lambert and the three
democrats favoring ONO, the nee
essary two-thirds' vote for his re-
moval can not be obtained.
