CLEVER SWINDLER
PICKS UP $500

Several hundred Hood River resi-
dents became aPprised of the fact
Monday that they bad been swindled
out of several hundred dollars by a
clever sharper who gave the name of
j. X. Boyd, and who represented him.
self as the agent Of q magazine sub
scriptIon agency in Salins, Kan.
The knowledge OF the wholesale
swindle was made known through
several letters received here from pub
shing houses that disclaimed all know
ledge of Boyd or the Wilson Magazine
agency, which he claimed he was rep
resenting, and advised the writer's OF
the letters who had entered protest
because they had not receiAed the
magazine they subscribed for that
they would not be Forthcoming unless
the subscription price was forwarded.
1t is said by QUE Of the many vic
Tins that Boyd came here about the
latter part of November and offered
magazines at cut rates. He claimed
to be mute and had several printed
cards which he handed to his prospec-
tive victims. AS it was about the
time OF year when many subscribers
to magazines renew their subscrip
tions, he did big business and il
estimaet to have cleaned up about
$500.

EN- million people. The success
the play is credited to the religious
sentiment that prevails in the theme,
making it particularly attractive to
the non -theatregoer, who as a rule
avoids the playhouse, owing to re-
ligious scruples. "Ben- Hur" has the
endorsements of the leading lights of
the church world and has appealed to
all theatregoers as the most powerful
drama that has ever been created for
the stage.
Wallace had few peers sand no su.
periors In the art OF presenting to the
eye the imagery of scriputral scenes.
In Ben Hur", his masterpiece, he
gives the life, the color, the feeling,
of the time of Christ. With these he
presents an intense heart story, a
heroic drama, filled with the tender
est emotions, tinged with the romance
of love and war, exalted by the evi
dence OF Divine miracles performed
by the Nazarene. Although the ga.
cred presence is not shown, 1t is felt,
and throughout the play runs the
strong undercurrent Of religious feel
ing which distinguishes "Ben- Hur"
from all other dramatic offerings
based ON Bibliacl themes. The sym.
bolism of Rome and Jerusalem, of Jew
and Gentle, of peace and war, are
shown, surrounding the great mystery
of the presence OF Christ Each scene
untolds as perfect picture, the whole
blending in living pageant.

ratrons for "Ben Hur," Manager Cal

Alaska is a cold and barren region
and is almost useless except as a
hunting ground for the seal and other
~fur-bearing animals" declared a stan.
dard school geography published so re.
Gently as 1875. The discovery of gold
served materially to broaden that view,
and a representative of the depart
ment Of agriculture now reports that
the t~erritory's agricultural possibilities
have been %grievously underestimated.
In the Yukon valley he has ripened
oats, barley and winter wheat for sue
cessive seasons, and found them fully
as heavy as the best grain of the
states. Grasses grow a%bundantly, as
do all the harder vegetables; and
when it comes to live stock, Galloway
cattle, a long-haired, hardy breed, stand
the climate we'll. Such facts suggest
that it should not be difficult to carry
out the aim Of the Alaska-Yukon-Paci
fc exposition, ito correct the common
impression that Alaska and Yukon are
nothing but countries of cold and
gold"

Record of Canada's Trade

Between 1877 and 1887 the trade of
the Dominion with the United States
increased less than $4,000, 900; in the
mex decade it increased over s2S, 0O0,.
600, and in the ten years ending 1907
it increased 1902, 900, 900. This in
crease in the progress of growth would
be striking enough as it stands, but 1t
becomes vastly more impressive when
we observe that the growth Of Ca.
