CHAPTER lI.-Continued.

In a week, perhaps possibly not
for two weeks" And the surgeon de-
parted.
AS soon as he was out Of the room,
Giles sent for pen and paper, and
with the most painful effort, guiding
his right hand by his left, managed
to indite the following epistle to Capt
Overton:
Phoenix Inn. Portsmouth, Friday.
Dear Sir:
This is to inform you that / met with
a most unfortnit aXerdent while coming
down on the coach My friend and mess
mate. the infant admiral which you saw
with me, had read the story of Gehu in
the Bible or Homar, 1 forget which. and
aspired to drive four horses. Which he
did with the result that my right arm

it delays the pleasure we antissipated in
our meeting. You will here from me as
soon as I am recovered The only thing
witch disturbs me is that If we both go

mudgin. Sir Thomas Vernon, bad luck to
him. Believe me, sir.
your much obliged and
Most obedient servant.
GILES VERNON.
Mid. on II. NJ. S. Ajax"
Giles gave me this to read, and
pointed out several mistakes he had
made in spelling, although the tone
of the letter was gentlemanlike, as
everything was that Giles did. With
great vexation and some difficulty, he
added a postscript.
"P. S.-Please excuse spelling as my arm
is very paneful. c.. ""
At that moment a marine from the
Ajax bounced, breathless and in great
excitement, into the room.
I'VE are to sail with the tide, to-
night, sir!" he said. The admiral
passed the messenger on the road;
the jib is loose, and the blue peter fly
ing"-and out he ran, to notify the
other absentees.
Giles seized the paper, and added
laboriously:
"'. S. No. ,. l am just enformed that
the Blue Peter is flying from the Ajax.
and that, my dear sir signifies that we
are about to sail. Our meeting must be
postponed, for god knose when we will
eat fresh butter again But you shall
hear from me. G. v"
And that night we sailed with the
tide.

8 SHIFTS OF MINERS
TO WORK ON TUNNEL

The members of the Contact Min
ing and Milling company are the
busiest men in the community this
week says the Lostine Reporter,
packing provisions, tools and other
mining necessities up to the South
fork copper mining region. Hardly
a day passes but sees a string OF
pack horses start to the mines carry
iEg anything and everything, from
box of groceries TO a six hole steel
range. Workmen have been busy at
the mines for a month or so, build
ing cabins, blacksmith shop, cook
house and other buildings necessary
for continuing the work. Other min
ers from outside are expected here
soon, when three sets of men, on
eight hour shifts will be worked,
thereby continuing the work in the
tunnel day and night. J. H. Jackson
took the contract to put the 300 foot
tunnel through for $4,000 and as
they strike the veins of ore which
cross this main tunnel, they will put
on extra men and side tunnel from
both sides. The wagon road to the
mines will be completed as soon as
possible, and then the company will
begin to ship ore.

Great Publicity
Campaign Starts
One-Third People of United States
Reached BY Oregon
Ads.

Portland, July 29.-No less than
25,66S,67O people throughout the
United States will have their atten-
tion drawn to Oregon as the land
of opportunity during the coming
three months by great advertis-
ing campaign to be conducted by the
Portland Commercial Club. The lead
ing agricultural papers and the weekly
editions of the big dailies will be
used. There is no question that the
campaign will direct the movement
of thousands of people to this state
The advertisement will carry the
familiar oval, with the slogan, "Ore-
gon Is the Place For You.' In large
letters, and those at all interested
are urged to ask for literature and
information about Oregon. The
advertisement informs the reader
that railroad rates are the same to
all parts of Oregon from the East
and Oregon Commercial bodies will
be supplied with addresses of all en-
quirers so that the whole state may
profit by this advertising, although
Portland will bear all the expense,
There Is probably no other city in
the world that has done like thing
1t is urged that all get in line for
this valuable publicity. People from
the East who ask about this state
should be answered promptly and
fully by every commercial body In
this way, it is believed, very great
benefit will follow for all Oregon.
This Is the more important now
that the colonist rates for this fall
have been decided upon by the rail.
roads. Reduced one-way tickets will
be sold to all Pacific Coast points
from the East and Middle West for
colonists and home-seekers who de.
sire to settle here. The advertising
campaign for settlers will be we'll
supplemented by these attractive
rates to settlers.

EVER GROWING DEMAND
FOR OREGON APPLES

Portland, July 3O.-That apple
growers of Oregon have nothing to
fear from the danger of overproduc-
ton is the statement of Wilbur X.
Newell, president of the state board
of horticulture, who has recently re-
turned from the east. He says the
industry is not likely to be .overdone
and that the demand for Oregon
fruit now exceeds the supply in many
quarters. While away, he visited
many apple growing districts of the
east. He found Oregon apples well
established in eastern markets and
said the price paid for fruit from
this state exceeds that given for the
eastern product.
Portland will have an improved
market for the livestock of the North
west early in the coming month when
the BIZ, stockyards on the Peninsula
will be opened. 1t is said the new
facilities to be offered for the mar
keting of stock will be the best on
the Pacific Coast. At the start the
yards will have capacity of rs cars,
or nearly 1000 head OF cattle; 10000
head of sheep or about rs cars;
and 1000 head, or so cars, of hogs.
This capacity can easily be douol-
ed as occasion requires. The yards
will be run in connection with the
new packing plants now being built
on the Peninsula.
That the climate OF the Pacific
Northwest is most favorable to lone
life Is the belief OF DR.. Rudolph

life and author OF the book. "How

SUNDAY TRAIN ON
WALL0WA BRANCH
NEW SERVICE WILL START TO-
MORROW-lOWER FREIGHT
RATES FROM EAST.

Official announcement is made
that the train service on the branch
will be seven days week, instead of
six days as heretofore, the change to
go into effect tomorrow, August /.
The Sunday trains will be a mixed
service same as the six day service
now, and 1t is supposed will handle
mail, express, etc.
The addition of the Sunday trains
will be of great convenience to the
people of this county as it makes
possible a business trip to La Grande
and return by missing but one busi-
ness day at home. 1t also obviates
the "a hour wait at La Grande or
Portland if you are ready to leave
the latter city on a Saturday night.
But of course the great boon will be
the additional mail service If that is
installed.
The new train will certainly make
business for itself during the sum-
mer in carrying pleasure seekers.
Men in La Grande, Pendleton and
Baker City are given an opportunity
of weeks end holiday in the finest
hunting and fishing country in Ore
gon. Scores of them will doubtless
take advantage of the new train, as
will hundreds of sight seers.
Lower Rates From East.

ern points to Enterprise and all

result Of the Spokane rate decision,
