Tong War
Is RreWin0

What seems to be the brewing of a
tong war among local celestials de-
veloped in Justice McKinney's court,
when Lou Kwong Man, who rooms in
the Chinese quarters on Alder street.
was tried on complaint of Wee Fun,
another Chink, who alleged that
Kwong struck him with a stick in a
dark hall on the upper story of the
building. Kwong claims he loaned FUN
money with which to buy restaurant,
and Fun sold the restaurant and did
not pay Kwong back. When Kwong
saw Fun in the building he asked him
why he did not pay him, and according
to Fun, struck him with a stick
Kwong claims he did not have a stick
but that the plaintiff did, and two
witnesses testified that this was so.
1t is said that Fun does not belong
to the ruling faction here and the ce-
lestials do not seem to want him in
town.

J. A. Baxter and Family To Reside
There in Future.

j. A. Baxter, one of Walla' Walla's
most prominent citizens, left last night
with his wife and son Richard, for
Gold Hill, Or, where they will make
their home. In talking to Union re-
PORTER last night Mr.. Baxter said,
Il have been so successful in Walla
Walla and have so many good friends
here really, when it comes right down
to leaving the city / find it a pretty
tough job. But I find by going to- Gold
Hill / have much better opportunities
and business undertakings will be on
much larger scale and therefore /
feel it is only justice to my family
that l do not pass up the oportun-
ity."
Mr. Baxter has heen one of Walla
Walla's influential citizens for many
years and owing to his business Ike
methods and untiring energies COM
bined VITA honest dealings, he has
succeeded in building up a large real
estate business here.

breaches a Strono Sermon.

Evangelist Hilton in dealing with the
subject, "a Change of Heart" last
night preached a strong and logical
sermon. He said that the Bible def
milton of heart is the one we should
go by. Then turning to various pes
sages bearing on the subject he show
ed that the heart as it is used in the
scriptures means the intellect, the af-
fections. the will and the conscience.
THAT the change Of heart necessary
to the making of a Christian means a
change of our BELIEF with regard to
Christ if that has been wrong; a
change of our affections with regard
to Christ if they have been wrongly
directed; a change of the will if we
have not proposed to follow Christ
and a change of conscience if our con-
sciences have not stirred us to do our
duty as it is revealed to us. God chan
ges the heart by furnishing US facts to
believe, love for our affections, motive
for our wills and obedience for our
consciences. A man is Christian only
when in all his heart he is thoroughly
committed to the Lord" The meetings
will continue tonight and tomorrow
night. The subject tonight will be
What is Conversion?'

petent nursing for them. Ir we are not
humane enough to maintain a place
where children can be cared for in
this manner and the father be allowed
to continue his bread earning instead
of being quarantined in his home for
weeks or months. let us be keen enough
from a purely business standpoint to
provide such a place.
Many of the cases of diphtheria and
scarlet fever spread because of fear of
being quarantined and the income
thereby cut off, and rather than have
this happen the case is not reported
nor the doctor called for fear this will
happen.
"One of the diseases whose source
is well known by the medical men is
that group known as infantile door
rheas. This disease destroys annually
large percentage OF our healthy born
infants. 1t can be largely prevented
by correcting the four causes-dirty
milk, impure ar, filth, and ignorant
mothers Five times as many infants
die when artificially fed as when fed
upon the breast If l were to designate
the most prolific source of these
deaths, would embody it in the phrase
ignorance of mothers" Mothers clubs
and lectures can do much to save these
little angels on earth"
Dr. Montgomery then went on to tell
how infants receive germs, and adj
vocates a course IN the schools to
train mothers how to rear their
young. He goes on to say:
First the milk must be clean and
fresh. Must be kept very cold from the
moment it is MIXED until used, must
be fed from clean bottles and nipples
and never allowed to stand in the
bottle and be warm for a few hours
and then used. If we cannot be certain
of the cleanliness, it should be heated
to the boiling point for a moment and
then kept very cold until used.
Health is wealth, according to Emer-
son, so that a city is wealthy when II
! is healthful. notice by the recent re-
! port OF city expenses that there was
approximately four times as much ex-
| pended for the suppression of and pro-
lection against crime as there wa:
