Father Sweeney all so commented on long courtships. and stated t6lat he did not approve Of them.

V alues rank first Tn Carpet Hall.

It is the rugs, and the carpets; their goodness, and their prices these make Carpet Hall the busy spot that it is.
 All it's cheeriness and all it's ex- cellent light would be of no at traction without the great varie- ty and the excellent value of the carpets and the rugs and the mattings and other foor-cover- ings that are spread out there.
 That spreading out, by the way, helps wonderfully when you are choosing. A rug looks exactly. as it is going to look when you get it home. There's room enough in Carpet Hall so rugs can be shown on the floor; in their proper place.
 Right now, there is a specially good assembly of rugs and of carpets. There is wisdom in having what folks want when they want it. We are ready.

LONDON "HOOLIGANS'
APE FRENCH APACHES

London.-The police of London are
getting seriously alarmed because the
"hooligans" here. encouraged by the
success of their brethren, the
"apaches," are beginning to manifest
themselves in a very similar way TO
their French brothers.
This is not the first attempt these
youthful desperadoes have made to
terrorlze the people Of the worlds
greatest city.
Two years ago a serious attempt
was made by the authorities TO stamp
out the gangs OF roughs which syste-
matically paraded the streets of the
East End and southeastern districts,
but within the last few months the
police have found themselves con-
fronted with a serious situation. An
increasing number OF cases has been
reported recently in which members
OF the public and the police them
selves have suffered seriously from
the attacks OF hooligans.
This week more than a dozen cases
have occurred in the East End alone
mainly in Bethnal Green, Shoreditch
and Hoxton. Police court procedure
does not appear to have any effect
In some districts residents are COM
planning loudly that more police
should be put on the streets.
The London hooligan works with
method. He generally uses a stick or
a belt with great effect 1t is esti-
mated that there are more than two
dozen hooligan gangs infesting the
metropolis and defying the police at
the present time. They roam the
streets in detachments and when sec
tions of rival gangs meet, pitched bat
ties sometimes result. The leaders
of these gangs are known to the po-
lice, and they can generally ascertain
when trouble is brewing. When knots
of the lads are seen whispering to-
gether at street corners a raid or a
fight is almost sure to result. The

Especial Correspondence.) }


Athena, Ore, Oct S.-Since the re-
cent rains the weather in this vicin-
ity has been very favorable to the
planting of fall grain. There was
about two weeks of the rainy spell
and after that the sun has been shin
ing almost continually. This enables
the farmers to seed their summer fall
low Immediately, consequently all of
the kernels will be in the ground quite
early this year.
A number Of improvements are be-
ing made in the orchard tracts below
the city at present and when Fifth
street Is put through, which will be
In the very near future, few more
will be made. S. S. Piersol who is
the owner Of a very choice piece OF
sub-irrigated land consisting of five
acres, is building a new house and
barn; Y. w. Lockwood has hog-wire
fenced his thirty acres and has Sec
eral new buildings built already; and
Vic Harris is building one of the
finest concrete barns in this country.
This land has already proven itself
to be very productive, as Cass Cam
non has recently pluckeu seNeia'
large pumpkins off the vines and one
OF them weighed Ga pounds.
Postmaster L. A. Citizens of this
city is very i'll with Bright's Disease
and very little hope Is held out for
his recovery. Mr.. Citizens health
has been failing for several years
and for the last year he has been up

one of his attacks would prove fatal
But he recovered to certain extent
and tried to take his old stand in the
postoffice, but he soon took down
again and has been very sick for the
past two months. The last few days
he has been growing worse and II II

CHOLERA THREATENS
RUSSIAN CAPITAL

Berlin.-The disgust and impa-
tience felt at st. Petersburg and daily
expressed in the newspapers at the
half-hearted and Intellectual attempts
of the authorities to stamp out the
cholera, have been considerably
heightened today by the discovery
that vessels loaded with grain from
Odessa, where there Is plague as well
as cholera, are allowed to enter st.
Petersburg without any medical in
spection or sanitary precautions
whatever. Such vessel has been dis
charging Odessa grain on the quays
OF the Neva for some days past, hav-
ing naturally brought with 1t some
Of the rats of Odessa, which are be-
ing officially exterminated as far as
possible in the latter town in order
to prevent the spread of the infec-
ton
The sanitary regulations of the Port
of st. Petersburg appear to be those
of the time of Peter the Great, 200
years ago, but without Peter the
Greats genius and energy in dealing
with emergencies. The Novoe Vrem-
va despairingly declares that the dead
bureaucratic Journalism, official care
lessness, and the medieval habits of
the uncultured population have en-
tered into a conspiracy to SOW Rus
sia with the seeds of disease and de-
struction.
The highest Russian medical and
sanitary authorities are beginning to
express the most pessimistic views
concerning the unhealthiness of Rus
sia One Of them has just declared
his belief that the cholera will be
worse next year. Professor Veliamin-
off also certifies to the failure of all
measures against it, as long as the
insanitation in the towns and villages
is not radically dealt with
Out Of 1882 towns throughout the
country, only 3S have any kind OF
drainage at all, and only 1872 are pro-
vided with a water supply. At Huge
sofka. the great metallurgical center
belonging to the English-New Prus'
| sia company, 500 Turks have had &c
be engaged to take the places OF the
Russian workmen, who have decamp'
ed in consequence of the cholera.

COAST CITIES COOPERATE
TO SECURE CONVENTION

Portland. Ore.-As an instance of
the way the Coast cities are working
together to bring conventions West
may be cited the campaign waged by
Portland the past week to aid Tacoma
in securing next years convention of
the National Association of Commer-
cial Executives. This organization Is
now in session in Grand Rapids,
Mich, and Secretary Sommers OF the
Tacoma Chamber Of Commerce has
gone East bearing the official invita-
ton for next years gathering.
To back up Tacoma's invitation
Portland has sent kilograms to the
commercial bodies of the Coast cities
calling upon them to help bring the
convention to Tacoma and II is ex-
pected that each will send messages
to the Grand Rapids gathering, urg-
ing the delegates to come West next
year.
The kilograms were sent out by the
Portland Commercial club and sign
ed by Manager Chapman of the Pro-
motion Committee and Manager Ray
mond of the Convention Bureau. The
messages went to every prominent
commercial body on the Coast from
Los Angeles to Seattle. The messages
sent vary with the people addressed
but all ask that kilograms be sent to
Grand Rapids, urging delegates to
bring the. next convention to Tacoma.
Los Angeles endorsed Portland for
the next meeting place OF the con-
vention but Tacoma had already laid
nIops for 10 and Portland YladlV
waived it's claim in favor OF its nor
thern neighbor.
The action just taken shows that a
united Pacific Coast has become n re-
ality and that a working agreement
has been framed whereby the whole
will be a powerful machine, running
harmoniously for the good Of the en-
tire Coast.
