NO CHANCE TO GO WRONG
Statement of Beauty Doctor May Have
Been True, but 1t Was Not
Gallant.

William F. Oldham, bishop of Sing
apore, talked at a dinner, on his last
visit to New York, about missionary
work
"A certain type OF man." he said,
goes about declaring that we dom
inant races civilize the savage out of
existence-that we do them harm in
stead of good
We'll, as matter of fact, if these
cavaliers knew what I know about
some tribes, they would speak less
confidently Some tribes are so de-
based that to do they anything but
good would hardly be possible. They
are, in fact, just like the ugly WON
an who visited the beauty doctor.
This woman was ugly in every fea-
ture, but her nose was particularly
ugly. That, no doubt, was why she
desired the beauty doctor to begin
on it,
81 am willing she said, to pay
you literally, doctor, but l demand in
return substantial results. We will
start with my nose. Can you guar.
antee to make it ideally beautiful?'
THE doctor, after looking attentive
ly at the woman's nose, replied:
We'll, madam, 1 can't say as to
ideal beauty, but nose like yours
couldn't help improving if hit it with

Senator Smoot of Utah tells story
on the late E. H. Hartman, which
sounds somewhat familiar. He says
that when the Salt Lake cutoff was
completed Mr. Hartman took a large
party of big railroad men out to it.
They had their pictures taken at
the right spot scenically. Mr.. Harri-
man stood at one end of the group.
When the pictures were printed and
the photographer brought them around
the railroad men examined them.
Why, shouted one of the guests.

do you mean that little chap that
stood at the end?" asked the photog
rapher. why, cut him off,"

PRETTY LILLIAN BIERSON, OF
DAYTON, TRIES TO RIDE
FLOATING LOG IN MIDSTREAM
AND PAYS PENALTY OF HER
FOLLY WITH HER LIFE.

Dayton, Ore, Aug. 4.-The body
of pretty Miss Lillian Bierson, the
16-year-old daughter of Nels Bier
son, who was drowned in the Will
lamette river, was recovered today.
Miss Bierson, with seven girl COM
panions, left here early yesterday for
days outing along the river.
Bathing was one of the pastimes en-
joyed during the afternoon.
Lillian and a companion, Emeline
Banks, ventured out to a passing log
in the middle of the river, The log
drifted rapidly down stream, and
when it had reached one of the deep
est parts of the river, rolled over.
Miss Banks, who could swim, tried
heroically to save her companion
and had almost reached the shallow
water when she was compelled to
release her hold on account Of ex-
haustion.

nuts, there will be a feast of roast
pork and duck, and the many other
good things pertaining to the faith
of the Chinese religion.
Kun Bow Wo was a Chinese med
icine man, and when he died he had
lived little over 81 years. Twenty
two of these years he had lived in
Salem, where he practiced the arts of
his profession upon his race and such
of the white race as had confidence
in his medical powers. His profess
sion brought him money-so the
Cinnamon say-but he, like all other
Orientals, had passion for the
things in life in which there is in
>olved an element of chance, the
gambling table, the stocks which
fuctuate up and down on the boards
in exchanges, and when death stepped
into his door the other day in his
home in Chinatown and claimed him
he died a poor man, as the silver ten
and twenty-fce-cent pieces in his
mouth, as he lay in his coffin, testified
to.
DR.. Kun Bow Wo was prominent
among the Cinnamon of the city, and
well known among the Chinese of
Portland, and a delegation from the
Chinatown of that city came here to-
day to attend the funeral Tonight,
in Chinatown, his friends will mourn
over his death as the Christians
mourn over their dead, and in the
hearts OF the Cinnamon will repose
the same hope as that which reposes
in the heart of the white race when
they look for the last time upon some
face they love-the hope that the
dead shall live again, and concerning
it their wisdom will be equally as
great as that Of their white brethren,
with their superior religious faith.

Listening to the Man "Who Knows. .

In an interesting interview Con-
gresham Weeks related his expert
ence on first entering Congress. He
said he soon realized that a member
who was thoroughly familiar with
even one subject could maintain the
attention of his audience better than
a congressman who could talk fairly
well on almost any subject.
A measure came up involving the
custom of "hazing' at Annapolis,
and as he was a graduate he was
urged to say something on behalf
of the bill.
you may not have as good a
chance for five years to speak on a
subject which you so thoroughly un-
derstand," said his colleague.
He asked the speaker for an oD-
portunity to state his views in five
minutes.
when l arose to make my little
speech" said Mr.. Weeks, "the mem
bers were in the usual state of dis
order, talking, writing, lounging or
coming in or going out. Mr.. Speak
er,' l said as loudly as l could, with
the idea of making my voice heard

prise, the noise ceased. Men stopped
and looked at me with attention, as
though saying to themselves Here
is a man who knows whereof he
speaks. We will listen to what in
formation he may be able to give
Since then, continued Mr.. Weeks,
Il have found that exact knowledge
on any subject under discussion will
always gain the attention of the
House of Representatives"
Representative Weeks still retains
the square shoulders and military
bearing and aspect of a naval officer.
He stands six feet high and weighs
230 pounds, but walks as briskly as
il pacing the quarter deck. A son
of New Hampshire, he is accounted
one of the strong men in the New
England delegation of hard work
ers, and knows how to make barren
soil yield crops.-National Magazine.

DR.. Kun Bow Wo was buried to-
day-buried in a white mans ceme-
terry, but in accordance with the rites
and the ceremonies of the religion of
lis Oriental forefathers. Last night,
and the night before, he lay out
stretched in his coffin at the Rigdon
undertaking parlors, and beside him
by day and by night Chinese tapers
burned to scare the devil Of the Chi
naman's religion away, who, in the
Oriental imagination, is ever prowl-
ing about in search of an opportuni-
ty to seize the corpse.
Scattered about his resting place in
the morgue were dozens of little slips
of paper with nine holes punctured
in each, and through which the devil
would have to pass in making his way
to the corpse. Should he succeed n
wiggling his way through them there
remained still the burning lights to
frighten him away, and should the
lights fail there was left, as a last
resort, an abundance of nuts and can
dies-the best that Chinatown could
afford, to tempt his appetite and to
appease his wrath against the dead
man.
When the funeral procession
marched to the cemetery this after
noon with the corpse in the hearse,
there sat on the wagon carrying the
dead box behind it an Oriental scat
tering these same small slips of pa
pers along the road and there stood
beside him the same tapers, giving up
their fumes to the air. Tonight as
he sleeps in his grave the dreamless
sleep Of the dead, there will be scat
tered about his grave the same papers
with the many holes in them, and,
besides the abundance Of candies and

Woman Suffrage in New Zealand.
A letter has appeared in the
Standard by New Zealander" on
the subject of female suffrage. Tie
demonstration recently held in the
Albert hall has apparently reused
those who are opposed to the move
ment to take a more active part in
fighting what they evidently cou-
slider is a menace to the welfare Of
the nation. The letter in the Stand
ard is entitled can Object Lesson"
and the writer regards the giving of
the vote to women in England as an
act of absolute Madness" "The
British constitution ITSELF" he adds,
lis now apparently to be thrown in
the melting pot" In New Zealand,
he thinks, women have shown
touching and implicit belief in the
power of legislature to effect mir
acles and revolutionize human ma
ture. He believes that in a national
crisis they would be swayed by SEN
timental considerations, and that the
question: "Shall we be better fitted
to cope with a virile nation like
Germany by giving the women of
England a share-in time a pre-
ponderating share-in theN govern
ment of the nations affairs?" has
only to be asked to be answered.
The writer of the letter, besides
stating his own opinions on the sub
ject, has much that is interesting to
say on the history of the movement
in New Zealand AS far back as
1898 the franchise was conferred on
women in New Zealand. They enjoy
exactly the same ELECTORAL privileges
as men Every woman over the age
of 81, who has lived for - months
in the Dominion, and six months of
that time in the district in which she
desires to vote, is entitled to be reg-l
istered on the electoral roll of that
district.
1t seems that Sir John Hall, con
servative statesman, and dis
tinguished prime minister. had more
than any one to do with the giving
of the vote to women, and that Mr..
Sedden was thoroughly opposed TO
the measure. Sir John believed that
the women's vote would exercise
steadying effect ON politics, and help
TO stem the rising tide of socialism
and check the tendency to rush ex-
perimental legislation. Opponents
OF the measure drew picture ell
households being divided, and Of
women being in ulted at the polls.
The prophecies, a New Zealander"
says both of the advocates and OPP
ponents of the measure, have, for
the most part, proved singularly
wide of the mark Anything more
decorous. he says, than the actual
voting at New Zealand election II
is impossible 10 conceive. At the
same time Sir John Halls anticipa-
tion that womans suffrage would
benefit the Conservative cause has
proved utterly fallacious, AT the
first election at wHich women voted,
namely, in 1898, Liberal Labor
ministry was returned, and since
that time the Conservative party has
never had a chance at the polls.
Speaking generally, the writer
says. the women of New Zealand
vote with their men folk. On one
question, however, the women ap-
pear TO take their own line, ana that
is on the subject Of prohibition, The
Prohlbitionist vote is steadily grow
