ALONE WITH DEAD FATHER
Lad of Six Liked in Ignorance of Pa

Victoria, b. c., Nov. 17.-Alone in
the house for four days with the dead
body Of his father. is the sad tale %
a little 6-year-old boy that comes
from the Mass river, in the northern
part of the province.
a white man named Haines, who
was married to an Indian woman, was
the unfortunate who met death under
such strange circumstances. Haines'
wife had gone on a visit to her people
who lived some distance up the rivr,
leaving the little boy with his father.
During her absence Haines' boat got
adrift, and the man swan out into
the lce-cold waters Of the Mas to
recover it.
He caught cold and, finding he was
a very sick man, cooked up quanti-
ty of food and told his little boy that
he was sick and was going to sleep for
long time and that he must not be
frightened. The lad was told to cover
his fathers face with a cloth when he
found he was asleep, and not to dis
turb him and, as there was lots OF
food. he was not to bother, but to eat
all he wanted when he was hungry,
and the mother would be home again
in a short time. Haines died, and the
little boy was alone in the cabin for
four days with the dead body Of his
father before anyone reached the
cabin.

LETTER FROM \ FoRrY-NINER,
Could Not Obtain Relief from Catarrll
Until He Had Used Hyomei.

Here is a simple, interesting and
sincere letter from a rugged pioneer
Of 40, who braved the dangers and
hardships of the overland trail to
California. Surely the sincerity of
this letter should strongly appeal to
those who desire to escape the bond
age in which they are now held by
that ruthless and most powerful
wrecker of health and happiness

Dear Sirs some years ago l was
afflicted with catarrh and tried a
number of remedies, but received no
relief I was told by a friend who
had been using your Hyomei, and
thought l would receive a great bene-
fit and perhaps cure purchased
an outfit. and before I had used the
bottle l noted a marked relief.
I used ii for 4 month or so, and
thought l was cured. and stopped
using it for year or so. Thought 1
was getting catarrh again, and start
ed using it again, and l keep 1t in the
house and use it every morning once
a day, and keep myself clear of ca
tarrh. I consider it the best catarrh
medicine that is used. l have often
recommended it to my friends. l am
81 years old. l came to California
in 1S49. and of course am not as Wig
orous as I was 5S years ago. My ad-
dress is Sal 4th street. Yours truly,

Missoula, Mont-The strenuous
work of the last two months on the
Flathead reservation in rounding up
and corralling the 250 bison of the
Pablo herd purchased by the Cana
dian government, has come to naught
and there will be no shipment of the
animals to Canada this year.
Despite all the precautions that
had been taken to insure the success
Of the drive the enclosure into which
the buffalo had been driven prepara-
tory to loading them into the cars at
Ravalli proved insecure and the herd
is now roading at will on the reserva-
ton. Michael Pablo, former owner
OF the herd; superintendent Douglas
of the Banff National park, and NJ.
Ayotte, special agent, have agreed
that it is not practicable to make an
other attempt at this time Of year on
account Of the danger that lies in the
animals dispensing in cold weather
and all effort has been suspended
until next season.

EUGENE PAvEs 60 BLOCKS.
Property Values Increase and OPP
pOnents of Improvements Have Be
come Advocates.

Eugene, Ore, Nov. 1S.-Wthin the
past IS months Eugene has paved 60
blocks with bithulithic pavement. at
a cost of over $250,O00. The street
Improvements during the last 12
months. outside Of the paving, amount
10 more than any former period Of
five years. The paving season will
close for the winter in about two
weeks, although Eugene will not stop
paving at that time, as petitions are
in from property holders TO continue
the work as long as practicable.
While there were a number of peo-
pie who opposed the paving in the be-
ginning, the increase in property val
ues in every case has amounted to
much more than the cost of laying
the pavement. Many who first oppos-
the movement are now its strongest
advocates, and Eugene IS not salts
fled with having the best made streets
Of any city outside of Portland in the
state, but she will push the improve
ments in every direction as rapidly as
conditions will permit.
1t is possible now to drive more
lhan two miles in one general direc-
ton without getting off the paved
streets. In the business section Of
town the cross streets and alleys have
been paved in such a way that the
traffic is easy to all parts of the busi-
ness district.
The paving extends from VILLAIN
cite street directly east on Eleventh
street to the railroad crossing in front
Of the University campus, a distance
OF nearly a mile.
Eighth street extends from William
cite 10 Blair street, in the western
part Of town, about the same distance
while the two streets reaching toward
the eastern and western limits of the
city were connected by the pavement
on willamette street, which extend,
from the Southern Pacific station, OF
about Thirteenth street.
