CHILD ATE CUTICURA
Spread Whole Box of It on Crackers
Not the Least Injury Resulted.
THUS PROVEN PURE AND SWEET

A New York friend of Cuticura writes:
my three year old son and heir.
after being put to bed on a trip across
the Atlantic, investigated the state
room and located box of graham
crackers and box of Cuticura Oint-
ment. When a search was made for
the box, it was found empty and the
kid admitted that he had eaten the
contents of the entire box spread on tho
crackers. 1t cured him Of bad cold

No more conclusive evidence could
be offered that every ingredient of Cuti-

WHEAT HARVESTING
BEGINS IN UMAT|LLA

The wheat harvest will soon be on
in full blast in Umatilla county. A
combine was started yesterday on the
William Temple ranch being farmed
by Charles CLANCY, ten miles north
west of town, while another one was
started this afternoon on the place
being farmed by Tullock. Other ma
chimes in different parts of the coun-
ty will be started tomorrow and by
the last of the week the hum Of the
thresher will be a familiar sound in
every direction.
According to Temple, the results
of the first days run indicate that
the crop will be even better than he
expected, though it is not up to the
average. Because his part of the
county had been passed up complete
ly by the few spring and early sum-
mer showers, he has not been count
ing on more than half crop. The re-
suits of yesterdays threshing indi-
Gates that the crop will be only a
little more than one-third short.

PANAMA WILL SEND
SETTLERS TO OREGON

Portland.-Amongt the many people
abroad who look with longing eyes
toward Oregon are the whites tenn
porarily employed along the right of
way of the Panama canal. These peo-
pie do not like the tropics on account
of the enervatlng effects of the cli-
mate and the mixed races with which
they are at present compelled to min
glue, and as soon as circumstances
will warrant they are going to seek
homes in the North Temperate zone.
While work is plentiful and wages
to stay, in order to save something by
which modest homes can be purchas-
ed elsewhere. They are mostly from
the thickly-settled districts of the
east, where there is comparatively
little opportunity for advancement,
and thus they feel constrained to go
to a country with a future.
DR.. A. S. Cooper, son of j. S.
Cooper Of Independence, has been
stationed at Panama for some time,
ana has uOllt SOOu llllSSlOlidly WI
for his native state by exploiting its
resources amongst tthe denizens, who,
he thinks, would make desirable citi-
zens of Oregon. He has written the
Chamber of Commerce of Portland
that he has 100 persons in one col
ony who are preparing to come here
little later on. He intimates that
they will not even wait for the COM
petion of the Panama canal before
starting, as the finishing of the big
ditch, six or seven years hence, will
be the signal for hosts of whites to
leave the Isthmus and thus create
a rush for homes all at once, that Will
for the time being cause a conges-
ton in the more favored districts. He
wants, therefore, to have his friends
duly located before the wholesae eX-
| odus from the Isthmus begins.
DR.. Cooper acknowledged the re-
ceipt of several copies of "Oregon
Opportunities" a pamphlet recently
gotten out by the chamber, and
which he has been industriously cir
culating since the books arrived He
wants more of them and Secretary
Giltner today sent him quite goodly
| supply.

CHICAGO PHILANTHROPIST
GIVES AWAY LAST MILLION

Chicago.-Daniel K. Pearsons, the
"Sage of Hinsdale," already famous
for his munificent benefactions TO
the small colleges of this country
said last night that he would devote
this, his Goth year, to distributing
among the various educational and
philanthropic institutions of this city
his last million dollars.
This will round out the sum he al
ways intended Chicago to have, and
leave him a relatively poor man when
he celebrates his Goth birthday on
April IA next.
Mr.. Pearsons declined last night to
indicate what institutions will bene-
fit by the remainder of his large for
tune. For virtually a quarter of
century Mr.. Pearson has devoted the
major part of his attention to bestow-
ing his money upon public institutions
which he deemed worthy, and he has
already given away considerably over
$4,000. 900. His gift to Chicago will
mark his retirement from the role OF
philanthropist, for he will save only
enough to insure himself comfort in
old age.

SERGEANT JOHNSON DIES
FROM HIS MORO WOUNDS

Manila, July 9-Sergeant Robert
Johnson, of the artillery, who was
wounded in the fight at Patian on
Jolo Island, in which the Moro out
law Jikiri and his band were exter-
minated last Monday, died today from
the effects of his wounds. Corporal
Hauser. who was wounded during the
same fight, is not expected to live,
but the remainder of the wounded,
including the three officers are MAX
ing satisfactory progress.
Sergeant Johnson was wounded in
the desperate encounter in which a
detachment of regulars and constabu-
larry succeeded in wiping out the entire
band of the Moro bandit, Jikiri, one
of the most notorious outlaws in the
islands. The fight took place in a cave
and resulted in the killing of one pri-
vate on the American side and the
wounding of three officers and 20 en-
listed men. The officers wounded
were Lieutenants Kennedy, Miller and
Wilson, all of the Sixth Cavalry.

How could bring in the skin
with all four legs attached when the
critter only had three legs when
killed." was the puzzling question
put to Deputy Clerk Brown this
morning by a farmer who had
brought in bunch of scalps to col
lect the bounty. Out of the entire lot
four were found to be defective
and Brown would not allow boun-
ty. The farmer declared a pup had
torn a leg from one of the skins,
while another was from an animal
that only had three legs when he was
killed and the farmer insisted that
he should be paid for the last named.
The deputy clerk was obdurate, how
ever.

head of cattle have succumbed to
thirst in that section. In parts of the
Mexican grazing country not drop
of rain has fallen in nearly a year.
Many streams on which the cattlemen
depended for watering their herds
have entirely dried up, and as there
are few wells, the ranchmen have no
alternative but TO let their cattle die
Of thirst. The spectacle presented by
