RESURRECTION DAY"
Bodies of Many Chinese Will Be Taken
to Native Land.

Chicago, Jan. 26.-"Resurrection
day. ceremonials for Chicago Chinese
were held yesterday at Rose Hill GEM
etery. where the Chinese burying
ground for the middle west Is To-
Gated.
Thirty-one boxes will be Chicago's
quota to the grim shipment which will
be started in a fortnight from Van
couver, B. c., to China. where the
bones will be reinterred in consecrat-
ed ground.
Sam Moy, the famous Chinaman
buried in the grounds at Rose Hill,
will not be taken back to China He
died in 1902. The explanation which
the local Chinese give is that he be-
came so famous and important while
here that it is not necessary for him
to be buried in consecrated soil in
order to enjoy the delights of convers-
ing and living with the ancestors who
have gone before.

AMERICAN HISTORY DULL
Woman Charges 1t Is Because Her
Sex Has Been Ignored.

Chicago. jan 26-"Our history has no
picturesqueness; it is the most dull and
limited history of any great nation, AMI
the reason for it is that woman has
been ignored Woman makes history
romantic and interesting.
These statements were made yester-
day before the Highland Park Woman's
club by Mrs. Charles Henrotin. She
spoke of three women, Empress
Eugene of France. Empress Frederick
of Germany and Empress Carlotta of
Mexico, who played important parts in
the history of their respective nations.
Now I am going to say something
awful" she continued. Take, for in
stance, the lives and times Of Wash
ington and Napoleon-this country and
France. Napoleon inspired the love of
women and their admiration, but you
cannot say so much of Washington.
Compare Josephine and Mrs. Wash
ington and you can see how much the
feminine element was emphasized IN
the former and forgotten in the wife
Of the father Of his country.

IMPRESSED WITH U. S.
Baron Shibusawa Praises Progress of
America.

Toxic. Monday. Jan. 3-Baron Shi-
busawa, in a speech at a dinner given
to several of the returned business men S
party at the Metropole said that he was
greatly impressed with the material prog
ress of America, but in analysing it he
had come to believe that it was due only
one-third to natural resources, and two
thirds to the enterprising, determined
character of her people. and in the de-
velopment of that character he had been
impressed by the important part played
by the splendid1y equipped Young Mems
Christian Associations.
If, he continued. Japan's ability to gain
a place alongside America in material
prosperity was solidly dependent on ma
tural resources, then Japan must give up
in despair, but since Americas prosperity
rests chiefly on character. Japan must
exert herself to develop men of similar
high character a field where there is
neither monopoly nor limitation. To de-
velop such men, the baron expressed the
earnest desire that young mems chris
tan associations as efficient as those in
America might be multiplied in Japan.

This is the most important
part Of our business, though
not the largest; we yield it
precedence to everything
else.
We use the utmost care in
prescription work, with a
generous disregard to costs.
It follows of course, that our
prices are high enough to
cover liberal costs and profit.
All through the rest of our
business, prices are low; we
can't say that for prescrip-
tions. We practice no econ
omies, neither in the com
pounding nor in safeguards
against mistakes; and we
take full profit to bolster our
virtue-if that is a proper
word for caution in handling

LEAVES HIS FORTUNE
TO ASSIST CUPID

Paris. Nov. 15.-One of the queer
est marriage lotteries ever held in
Frdnce took place today. carrying out
the provisions of the will of the late
Pascale Favale, who died recently,
leaving his small fortune to the prop
agation of matrimony. Favale was
greatly concerned because of the de-
creasing number of marriages and
the falling off in the birth rate in his
native France, and provided means
whereby Mammon may come to the
aid of Cupid. An annual drawing is
to be held, at which three spinsters,
between the ages of 16 and %, will be
given the sums of $3.50 each, pro-
vided they marry within three years
Several hundred young women had
entered for the first drawing which
took place today.
Three names were drawn by lots
from among the entries in the matri-
monial stakes. The three winners
have bound themselves to desert
spinsterhood within the required time
and on their wedding day will receive
the promised dot" If any of them
fail to secure a husband, the dowry
is forfeited. Although the sum is not
large, it is likely that the winners
will soon be showered with proposals.

EX-KING MANUEL is
OF LEGAL AGE TODAY

London, Nov 15.-Don Manuel,
one-time king of Portugal, who has
taken refuge on the Duke Of Orleans
estate in Worcestershire, is today cell
ebrating his twenty-first birthday. The
former sovereign does not attain his
majority under the most favorable
circumstances, but those who claim
to know declare that he is much hap
pier in his exile than he ever was as
the ruler of the nation Manuel, al
though he has now arrived at the age
OF manhood, is but a boy, and not a
very brilliant youth, and the cares of
state rested heavily on his shoulders.
There Is reason to believe that the
announcement that his room was con-
sidered of more worth than his COM
pany was received by him with a
sigh of relief. Unless things should
take turn in Portugal, 1t is likely
that Manuel will spend his life in
England, which is alike the refuge Of
the hunted anarchist and the fleeing
king.

PENDLETON SCHOOLS
TO CLOSE FOR WEEK
CHILDREN WILL GET
THANKSGIVING VACATION
Teachers VIII BE Given Opportunity
to Attend Institute at la Grande-
Scarlet Fever Epidemic Improved.

The public schools of Pendleton
will be closed all next week for a
Thanksgiving vacation and also to
permit the teachers to attend the
meeting of the eastern Oregon
teachers association at La Grande.
The institute is to be held on Mon
day, Tuesday and Wednesday of the
week and will be for the teachers of
Umatilla, Union, Wallowa and Baker
counties.
Friday afternoon the school work
will be brought to a close. 1t Is pos
sible that Thanksgiving exercises will
be given in some of the schools Fri
day but no programs have yet been
arranged. According to Superintend-
ent Landers the fact that many chill
dren are out of school because of the
scarlet fever epidemic may prevent
the holding of any Thanksgiving SER
vices At this time the scarlet fever
situation is greatly improved and with
the advent OF cooler weather the au-
thorities are hopeful that the disease
may be quickly stamped out. How
ever, precautions against a spread OF
| the disease are still being taken.
This week Thanksgiving offerings
| for~the Boys & Girls Aid society OF
Portland will be taken up in the va
rious schools. Pupils will not be urg-
ed to contribute to the aid society
fund. but all who care to do so will
be given the opportunity.
The work of apportioning about 900
new books to the school libraries oi
the city commences today. 1t Is the
annual apportionment of new vol
umes for the city schools and the ad-
ditions will strengthen the local IL
| braries considerably.
