Rheumatic
Pains

my mother is a great suf-
ferer from rheumatism, and DR..
Miles Anti-Pain Pills is the only
remedy that relieves her"
MRS. G. DAVENPORT,
Roycefeld, N. J..
The pains of rheumatism are
almost invariably relieved with
DIR. Miles Anti-Pain Pills. They
also overcome that nervous irri-
tation which prevents sleep be-
cause they soothe the nerves. To
chronic suffers they are invalu-
able. When taken as directed,
they relieve the distress and
save the weakening 1fluence of
pain, which so frequently pros
trates. Many sufferers use them
whenever occasion requires with
the greatest satisfaction, whv
not you? They do not derange
the stomach nor create a habit.
Why not try them? Get a pack
age from your druggist. Take it
according to directions, and if
it does not benefit he will return
your money.

STORM LOSS $50, 900, 900.
Worst Blizzard in Many Years Rages
Through Middle West.

Chicago, April 25. = Western and
other fruit-pruducing states will be
called upon this year to supply all of
the Middle Western states, in addition
to their regular business, for no fruit,
with the possible exception of straw
berries and few late grapes, will be
grown in six or eight states.
Of these Michigan and Missouri have
heretofore been counted upon for very
large supplies, but they will be forced
to buy everything this season.
Thirty million dollars is rough es-
innate made tonight of the loss in this
years fruit crop by the cold tempera-
lures and blizzardous condition which
obtained through the Upper Missis-
sippi valley last night and today and
extended as far East as Ohio.
Fears are expressed by conservative
observers in Michigan, Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Kansas, Wisconsin, Indiana
and Missouri that small. fruits, with
the exception of late Strawberries, will
be total loss.
Unofficial reports tonight are that
Kansas has suffered loss of $8,000,-
900; Iowa, So, 900, 900; Michigan, $5,
900, 900; wisconsin, $1,000, 900; Illinois,
81, 900, 900, and Indiana 81, 900, 900.
Lake Michigan, lashed into fury by
fierce northwest gale, tossed about
like corks all boats then on its sur-
face, and kept within harbors all other
craft.
The blizzard played a number of
freak pranks in Chicago, in one in
stance lifting the roof from barn and
dropping it on slowly-moving locomo-
tive on the tracks of the Chicago, Mill
waukee & St. Paul railroad.
There was general impeding of
steam railway, elevated and surface
passenger traffic in this city and the
Northwest.
Several inches of snow fell in Mil
waukee during the storm, and the bliz-
zard extended into Northern Michigan,
where fall of two feet was reported.
A wind blowing 48 miles an hour ac-
companied the storm.

Oregon Hen Breaks Record.

Bend-With the price of eggs soar
ing and the problem of the increasing
cost of living staring every one in the
face even more fiercely than how to
dodge the census man, hen in neigh
boring town, Tumulo, took it into her
head to break all records for big eggs.
Her production in this line had the as
founding dimensions Of 81 inches and
81 inches around, in long and short
routes. 1t is reported that the propri-
etor of the prize fowl has been offered
enough money for her to buy lot in
Bend, but prefers to keep the famous
egg-maker, believing that she will
make a rich man of him. "Buy hen
and become independent" is said to be
the motto adopted by the central Ore
gon hen owner.

80 STUDENTS ARE BURNED.
Mobs Set Fire to Technical School
-Gunboats are Refuge.

-Gunboats are Refuge.
Hankow, April 23.-The situation in
Human province is reported as critical.
Women and children are fleeing for
their lives from Changsha, the capital.
A number of villages near the city
have been burned by native mobs.
The country is placarded with threats
to kill all foreigners.
This news was brought by mission
ary refugees, who arrived here today
from Changsha and nearby stations.
Many of them had travelled 80 miles on
foot and reached the Yangtse Kiang
river in rags. Their houses had been
burned and they lost all of their per-
sonal effects.
The missionaries said that gunboats
in the river have their guns trained
upon Changsha and nearby points and
have afforded refuge for many of the
foreigners. Three thousand Chinese
imperial soldiers are occupying the
strategic points of the capital, and de-
tachments are being hurried to the
outlying districts, where .lioting is re-
ported. .A
Many Chinese have been killed. In
one instance technical school was set
on fire and 80 students were burned
to death, their escape being prevented.
When vessels approached Changsha
to rescue the imperiled ones the
Chinesee mob saturated junks with
kerosene oil from looted stations of the
Standard Oil company and. setting
them afre, allowed them to float down
stream in an attempt to destroy the on
coming steamers.
Six Chicagoans, three of them wo-
men, are believed to be imperiled, per-
haps slain in Human province. Every
where there is carnage and the future
holds out dark prospects. Mission
aries fear that at any moment they
will be slaughtered right and left.

l6o Acres to Apples.

Lakeview-The Lakeview Orchard
company has 160 acres of land broker
and seeded to rye, preparatory to set
ting out large orchard this fall. The
company has ordered 5000 trees for
early fall delivery.
The fact that this is the first at
tempt to set out an orchard on a COM
mercial scale is centering considerable
interest on the proposition.
But two varieties were selected, the
famous Winter Banana and the splen-
did Newtown Pippin, 1900 trees of
each variety. There were planted last
year 40 acres in Crooked creek valley
by S. B. Turner and so acres by ]. B.
Hughes, both of Surprise valley, and
55 acres by Lauer Bros, near Alturas.

RESIST RICE EXPECTATION.
Crop Failures in China May Cause
Serious Outbreaks.

Pekin, April 25.-- Attacks upor
magistrates and several mission build
ing at Changteh Flu and reports of dis
turbances at other points in Hunar
province have aroused diplomatic cir.
cles. Concern is felt lest the trouble
started in Changsha may develop wide
significance.
The Chinese government, fearing
revolutionaries may take advantage OF
the unrest growing out of the food sit
uation. is taking stringent measures to
suppress disorder. Fuller advices
from Changsha emphasize that the
rioting is not primarily due to anti
foreign feeling, but was turned against
foreigners only upon the discovery
that the governors efforts to prevent
the expectation of rice were baked
largely through foreign influence.
Thousands are on the verge of starva-
tion, owing to the failure of the crops.
Several weeks ago the governor, to
prevent high prices, prohibited all ex-
portation of rice. British and Japan
ese merchants and shippers engaged
in the rice trade protested to their re-
spective Legations at Pekin in an effort
to induce the diplomatic corps as a
body to protest. This was frustrated
by the refusal of the American and
German Legations to join.
The British and japanese then pro-
tested to the Wal WI Pu, which, in
view of the treaties now in force, was
compelled to instruct the
governor that he must postpone his in
hibition of exports. A jump in the
price of the peoples food quickly fol-
lowed the suspension of the inhibition,
and drove the poor in desperation to
wreck the government buildings, and
consulates, missions and
other foreign buildings.
Three men implicated in the recent
bomb plot against the regent, arrested
at Pekin, confessed their guilt. Two
leaders, educated in Japan, protesting
10 belong to the Sun Vat Sun party in
San Francisco, say bomb methods are
iscountenanced, and hence 4 the three
men acted upon their own responsible
ty.

Honolulu, April 25.-Alleging tech

w. B. Thomas, of the internal revenue

FEAR MORE RIOT|NG
Gravity Of Chinese Situation Is Be-
coming Quite Apparent.
In Event of Serious Trouble, Nations
May Have to Unite AS In the
Boxer Revolution.

Washington, April 26. There is con-
cern at the State department over the
Chinese riots in Human province be-
cause of the possibility that the trouble
may spread rapidly at any moment.
1t is realized here that information in
the Chinese provinces travels with
lightning-like rapidity from mouth to
mouth. So, with flaming anti-foreign
posters being posted in the streets of
Changsha, it is readily understood
wnat the effect may be on the neigh
boring districts.
If the riots spread it is believed that
the foreign nations will stand together
with the Chinese government to help
bring about order and prevent blood
shed, as during the Boxer troubles.
Effective naval vessels in the vicin-
ity appear. to be the United States
cruiser Cleveland, the japanese gun
boat Uji, and the British river gum
boat Snipe.
The Cleveland, which has just ar
rived at Hankow is of 5000 tons dis
placement and carries ten 5-inch guns,
eight Founders, two 1-pounders, four
Colt automatic and one 3-inch field gun.
The Snipe is British river gunboat,
which has just been refoated after
having run aground near Changsha.
She is So tons displacement, carries
two 6-pounders and four 45-inch Max
inns. The Japanese gunboat is 62O
tons displacement and carries four 12-
Founders and three Maxims.

Bridge Donor Is Found

Boston, April 26.-The mystery sur
rounding the identity of the Harvard
alumnus who had offered $500, 600 to
build a new bridge over the Charles
river to the stadium from Cambridge,
was cleared today when it was learned
that Larz Anderson, class of '99, Of
Brookline, was the man. The proposed
bridge would replace the present struc-
ture which has been found inadequate
to accommodate the crowds that flock
annually to the stadium for games.

IMPROVE ROADS IN COOS.
County Court Plans Campaign for
Permanent Highways this Year

Coquille-Coos county roads are tc
be improved. The work is to be done
thoroughly and as quickly as possible.
To aid him in arriving at more salts
factory conclusion on the subject,
Judge Hall sent a circular letter to
each of the county judges of the state
asking for views on the matter of APP
pointing master road builder, the
method now in vogue in the various
counties, and the general success which
crowns their efforts towards securing
good wagon roads.
Inh.many counties in the state the
plan has already been tried. In some
it'was successful while in others it
was a failure, the failure being princi-
pally due to the fact that the right
man was not secured. Among those
who favor the plan the greater num-
ber do not favor the appointment of a
civil engineer to the position for the
reason that the salary he would demand
would in most cases be too large.
"We have not arrived at definite
decision regarding the subject" said
Judge Hall, "but will take the mat
ter under further advisement at our
meeting next week and determine upon
some definite plan for the work of the
year. Whatever the decision, the
roads are to receive a great deal of at
tention and work during the present
year, and we hope to have the majority
of the highways of the county in fairly
good shape before the beginning of the
rainy season next fall"

MONEY is TIED UP.
New York Bankers Try to Sell Stocks
Few Buyers.

Ne" iOIN OdnNeTS Try 10 Oell BLOCKS
Few Buyers.
New York, April 26.-The financial
Review says the markets of last week
registered a sharp revulsion of senti-
ment from the hopeful temper of the
week before. 1t was the commonly
accepted view of the close market OBJ
servers that the advance has been or
ganized by important capital and by
banking interests to stimulate outside
interest in the dealings and to pro-
claim feeling of confidence at the
financial center which might react on
general business.
The action of the market at the
opening of last week was sufficient to
demonstrate the failure of the expert
ment. Instead of buying orders, the
country sent orders to sell stocks and
took advantage of the higher prices
established.
The professions of contentment with
the conditions of the steel trade which
had come from official sources in con-
nection with the marking up of stocks
and the predictions of an increase in
the dividend rate on United States
Steel and of a favorable quarterly
statement of earnings, had to be con-
trasted with the yielding price of pig
iron, proposals for reducing output to
avoid an unwieldly surplus accumula-
tion, and falling off in new orders
for different lines of finished products.

Bodies Dug From Debris.

Birmingham, Ala, April 23.-Re.
covery of bodies from the mines at
Mulga today was very slow. When 2s
had been brought to the surface, the
rescuers encountered bad cave-in and
it was found necessary to remove tons
of earth and rock. Some of the rock
had to be blasted away. The rescuers
secured four bodies under the debris,
but it took hours to extricate the
mangled forms from the mass. Ex-
perts who have examined the mine are
positive not one of the entombed men
lives. Forty-two men were in the mine.
