Eating for Strength.

The greatest pleasure to be de-
rived from eating is the pleasure one
gets IN the knowledge that his food is
giving him greater strength and vi
tality.
Because of this fact there is a con-
stant increase in the consumption of
Quaker Scotch Oats; every lime the
strength making qualities of Quaker
Scotch Oats have been tested by sci
entific investigation or by expert
ments in families 1t has been found to
be food without an equal.
1t builds the muscles and brain with
out taxing the digestive organs; it
costs so little anyone can afford it.
and 1t is so carefully prepared and
packed that it is absolutely pure and
clean. A Quaker Scotch Oats eating
family is always a healthy family.
Quaker Scotch Oats is packed in
regular size packages and also in large
size family packages. The latter very
convenient for those not near the
store. IL

Warning to House of Lords.

London.-In the budget debate IN
the House of Lords Tuesday LORD
Pentland, secretary for Scotland, gave
another indication of the government
policy. His warning that the House OF
Commons could not be expected to
find a way out of the difficulty should
the budget be rejected, created the
greatest interest in the lobbies of the
House of Commons, where it had been
supposed the government might give
way to the lords in the matter OF
adopting temporary financial meas
ures to meet the situation arising out
of the rejection of the bill.

Denver Civic Center Contest.

Denver.-Tuesday was the day for
filing protests against the proposed
Civic Center. The Park Board has
not yet announced the result, the VIC
tory being claimed by both sides.
The Republican Wednesday morn
ing says:
"On the showing of the so-ca'led
Anti-Civic Center Association itself
the proposition to secure twenty-five
per cent. of the lots of the East Den
yer Park District to protest the Civic
Center has been defeated. According
to the figures given out by the man.
ayers, George, Hilton and Bernard,
1900 lots protested, but even then
the Civic Center plans carry, be-
cause before the Park Commission
had been withdrawn from the pro-
testing list by the owners of the prop
erty. Figures submitted by City En-
gineer Hunter and vouched for by
him show that little over $4,000
lots are required to make up the
one-fourth necessary to defeat and
with the number of Withdrawals the
protests left, taking the 'antis'' fig
ures, would leave but about 16,OOO
lots, or 1000 short"
On the other hand, the News, which
has been the organ of the "antis,'
says:
"On the face of the returns the
Civic Center has been defeated.
The Anti-Civic Center Association
filed 1891 protests with the Park
Commissioners yesterday. The num-
ber required by law to defeat the
Civic Center is 16,250 The number
of withdrawn protests was not an
nounced by the friends of the Civic
Center, and the secrecy maintained
in this regard led to bitter conflict
at the Park Board hearing yesterday
afternoon when President Hilton of
the 'antis' made serious charges
while questioning the right OF the
commissioners to SIT as a judicial tri-
bunal in the case"

UNUSUAL RAINFALL RAISES ALL
STREAMS OUT OF THEIR
BANKS.
ENTIRE STATE AFLOAT
WILLAMETTE RIVER SCENE OF
GREATEST DESTRUCTION
AND LOSS.

Portland, Ore.-Practically every
river, stream and creek in Oregon is
out of it's banks and from all parts of
the state come reports of damage.
In eastern Oregon the rain was ac-
companied by a wind of almost hurri-
scane violence, which has resulted in
considerable destruction.
In eastern Washington conditions
are much the same, though the rain
fall is not so heavy.
The greatest damage in oregon ap-
parently has been done along the Will
lamette river. At Rossburg the water
plant has beeL forced to shut down.
Springfield is under two feet of wa
ter.
Near Brownsville a Southern Pacific
trestle on the Woodburn-Natron
branch has been carried out.
At Albany the docks are under wa
ter and the Willamette is steadily ris-
ing.
At Oregon City the water has
reached the girders in the pulp mills
of the paper works and the mills have
shut down.
The false work of the Southern Pa
cific's new bridge at Oswego has been
carried out.
In this city the water has covered
the lower wharves and several log
RATS have been torn from their moor
ings and lost in the mass of debris
which is passing the city. The loss of
the logs will amount to many thou
sands of dollars.
Communication with Hood river,
which has been cut off for two days,
as result of floods and landslides,
was restored Tuesday and several
bridges along the Hood river were re-
ported gone.
All along the banks of the Columb bia
river between here and The Dales,
landslides have tied up traffic.
