Portland, Ore, June 2t.--Jesse r.
Webb confessed this afternoon to the
killing of W. A. Johnson whose body
was found in a trunk in the Union
station here yesterday Webb said
he killed Johnson in self defense at
ter brawl in the iatter's room in
the hotel here. Mrs, d. w

onerated from completely by Webb
Mrs. Kersch Is supposed to be the
wife of Johnson, but admitted this
afternoon that she is the wife Of Bert
Kersch, of Seattle, and that she elop'
ed with webb year ago,
Webb declared that he lived with
Mrs. Kersch in Spokane and followed
her to Portland when she left with
Johnson. He says he concealed from
Johnson the fact that he was ae-
quainted with the woman, and that he
occupied rooms at the same hotel
with them.
Webb declares he killed Johnson

Some serious problems are pre-
|sented in connection with the improve
ment Of the two most important
streets of the city: Commercial ave
nue. and Sycamore street. The former
Is in a deplorable condition because
1t was not restored when the big
sewer was built, and is the thorough
fare which many of the strangers
that como to the city pass over. The
latter is the city's only means of in
gress and egress form and 70
the county, and is also in bad
condition The Improvement Of
these streets is ardently de-
sired by practically all the people
of the city; but as matters now stand
there is danger that the movement
toward that end may be checked and
the work delayed indefinitely. Per-
haps there is nothing to be gained
By going over the reasons for this
situation: to point out where the
blame lies; to show where this ought
to have been done. or that ought not
to have been done, by this partT or
by that party The important Ealng
is that the difficulties or disagree
ments which have arisen and which
now block the way to accomplish
ment, be somehow overcome or adj
iusted. All parties to the contro-
versy have great interests at stake;
and, while all have rights to protect
it may be assumed that if they can
get together for consultation, they
will be guided by spirit of fairness,
such concessions as will not
seriously imnair those interests or
rights, yet will permit the important
work to go on for the good of all con
cerned.

KASPARILLA

This sterling household remedy has
long been recognized as the best and
safest Blood Purifier, the most successful
prescription for spring humors and such
disorders of the blood as boils, pimples,
pustules, blotches, sores and cutaneous
eruptions. Kasparilla is admitted to be
the best remedy for that lack of energy
and the peculiar debility SO prevalent
during the close of winter and the opening
of spring. For arrangements of the di-
gestive organs it is a natural corrective,
operating directly upon the liver and ali
mentary canal, gently but persistently
stimulating a healthy activity. Its
beneficial influence extends, however, to
every portion of the system, aiding in the
processes of digestion and assimilation of
food promoting a wholesome, natural
appetite, correcting sour stomach, bad
breath, Irregularities of the bowels, con-
stipation and the long list of troubles
directly traceable to those unwholesome
conditions Kasparilla dispels drowsi-
ness, headache, backache and despond-
ency due to inactivity of the liver,
kidneys and digestive tract. 1t is a
Strengthening tonic of the highest value.

String Names.

1t was a rainy, gray day, and the
children had tried and given up all
their usual games. Finally Mary, who
had been playing with a piece of fish
line that Dick had dropped from his
pocket, exclaimed. "Oh. see what I've
discovered all by myself"
The children, Tommy, Sarah and
Dick, gathered round her quickly.
She sat at the dining-room table
with the Irvine in her hand.
20 dear, I'm afraid l haven't
enough" she said, as the others press
ed near: Tommy, do run and get the
ball of string"
When that was brought, she cut sew
eral lengths of it, each about a yard
long. Then she made some short
pieces, an inch or so long. The chill
dren kept begging her to tell them
what she was going to do. but she
smiled and said nothing. At last the
string was prepared
Dick" she said, you are the lit
TEST, how do you spell your name?"
Dick" he said, slowly and won
deringly.
She took one of the pieces of string
and very deftly, on the surface of the
table, made it into the shape of his
name in handwriting.
For the dot of the letter az she took
one of the short pieces, doubled it up
into ball and put it over the letter
! The children were delighted, and
spent the rest of the afternoon, till the
table had to be cleared for supper, in
forming their names, and even max.
ing whole sentences. The last thing
they wrote was Mary" in honor OF

The travelling Salesman.

Business is business, and a CONNER
cial traveller or any other solicitor for
patronage expects to put up with dis
comfort and annoyance, says Southern
Merchant.
No one, however, has the right to
ask him to patiently endure unneces-
sary humiliation. He who does, shows
an amount of coneeit, ignorance of the
world and a capacity for making enc
MES that sufficiently prove his own
'nsignificance as a man and a mer-
chant
There are men onN the road, as else
where, who can not be too severely
reated, but these are exceptions. The
travelling man has an exceptionally
keen knowledge of the world, as a rule,
and also exceptional powers of obser-
walton.
He has an insight into character and
conditions, and an inside knowledge
of goods and men that make him a
mine of information, a travelling store
house for the people with whom he
comes in contact.
With his access to the credit men of
great manufacturing and wholesale
houses, his acquaintance with other
travelling men, and his many relations
in the great markets of the country, he
is a commercial factor whose influence
it Is hard to overvalue.
