low, of the Christian Science publica-
tion committee, in statement to the
press.
According to Mr.. Farlow, Mrs. Eddy
passed away at l0:45 o'clock Saturday
night.
"She had been indisposed for about
nine days" said Mr.. Farlow's state
ment, "but had been up and dressed,
and as late as Thursday transacted
some business with one of the officials
of the church. She took her daily af-
ternoon drive until two days before
death. Saturday night she fell quietly
asleep and those around her could at
first hardly realize that she had gone.
Her thought was clear until the last
and she left no final message.

$4,000 FROM MINE.
Rainbow, in Eastern Oregon, is Rich
Property; Other Good Mines.

Property; Other GOOD Mines
Vale-A revelation to the people Of
Malheur county as we'll as to the gen.
eral public is the news coming from
the Mormon Basin mining district in
the northern part of this county
through M. B. Runyon, who was in
Vale the past few days, when he
stated that $40, 600 in gold had been
taken out of the famous Rainbow mine
during 30-day run.
Since the bonding of the Rainbow
mine for over 81, 600, 900 few weeks
ago, new impetus has been given
the Mormon Basin mining district.
Numerous good placer mining proper
ties in the district, if not seriously
handicapped by the water proposition,
would long ago have been wonderful
camps. The excellent showings of ore
found on the surface go to show that
some day the mother lode-the great
est surprise of this country-will be
found. Over $4,000 900 of ore has
been blocked out in the Rainbow mine.
On the point of the California hill
from the surface rock of the
Joe Wirch's claim go as high as $3.50
to the ton. The Humboldt mine, now
at the 2OO-foot level, got ore in place
with prospects of striking the perma-
nent vein. The Cleveland Mining
which has staked l9 claims
in that section, is now preparing to
work all of them.
The different mining companies are
now figuring on shipping all of their
supplies, machinery and provisions
through Vale over the Brogan railroad
% Brogan, 16 miles from the mines.
Baker City, now % miles away with
| heavy uphill pull to the mines, is to
ose all of the trade, Vale being pre-
erred on account of the short distance
md the down-hill haul for freighters.

Buy High Bred Stock.

Independence. B. Slump and Rar
Nelson have received their shipment
of So high class Jersey Island cattle
from Shclbyville, KY. These cattle
represent an investment of SIT,
the head Of the herd being "Noble
Peer" an animal not yet two years
old, that cost them S., He is a
world beater, as he took the grand
champion sweepstakes on the Island of
Jersey and has also won first prize
wherever exhibited in the United
States. 1t is probable that there is
nothing better in this vicinity. Seve-
raj of the cows cost within the neigh
borhood of 81, 900 each. This is with
out doubt as good a herd of Jersey
cattle as was ever shipped into the
state of Oregon.

Farewell Letter.

Boston, Dec. 5.--Mrs. Mary Baker
Glover Eddy. discoverer and founder

Peace Commission Closely Followed
BY Government Troops.
FL Paso, Tex.-A telegram from
Maria, Tex, states that apprehension
and excitement prevails at both Presi-
dio and Candelaria, 80 miles south of
the Texas side of the river, owing to
the revolutionary disorders reported on
the Mexican side. Nothing definite
has yet been learned of the reported
fight at Ojinaga Saturday night. Fir
ing has been heard at intervals, but SO
far as can be learned there has been no
loss of life.
Members of the peace commission
returned to Chihuahua and reported
that their work was greatly embarrass-
ed by the fact that soldiers followed at
their heels. At Guerrero, just as they
were beginning to talk with the insur-
rectos, peon arrived with word that
the soldiers were on the way, whereup-
on the meeting promptly came to an
end.

LOVE NOT JAP MOTIVE.
Great Britains Belief in Friendship
Shattered.

Shattered.
London When Japan recently gave
orders for a new dreadnaught to be
built in England, the proponents of the
English Japanese alliance were loud in
referring to this act as having been
inspired solely by an desire of Great
Britain's Far Eastern ally to prove by
friendship the pact was not obtained
with the flavor of business bargaining,
but simply intended gracefully to draw
more tightly the "ties of alliance.
All this sentiment has been rudely
shattered by Fred T. Jane, naval ex-
pert and student of international fight
ing ships.
"The report that Japan, while leav-
ing five of her own shipyards empty,
has ordered dreadnaught to be built
in England to show her admiration for
the Anglo-Japanese alliance, is some
what weak in the matter of assigned
cause" Mr.. Jane asserts.
"The actual facts appear to be that
although japanese yards are now fully
capable of turning out moderate-sized
vessels and very good destroyers, the
building of monstrous battleships is
rather beyond the capacity of their ex-
isting plants. This probably explains
the tremendous delays in recent Jap
anese construction. 1t is far cheaper
and expeditions to have a ship built
in England than to import
arge quantities of material to be put
ogether in Japan.

OREGON HAS e72, ,7s5.
State Entitled to Another Represen-
tative-Idaho Has 325,59s.


Washington-o Oregon has a popula.
tion of 672, 765, as shown by the 18th
census. The population ten years age
was 413, $50. The increase the past
ten years, therefore. has been 62.7 per
cent. The population in 1880 was
S1S, 767. The increase in 20 years has
been la per cent. The census bu-
reau's figures indicate that Oregon
will be entitled to another representa-
tive in congress two years hence,
even if the ratio of representation is
increased, in accordance with custom.
The announcement of the population
of Idaho, also made public, indicates
that that state also will gain one rep
resentative.
The figures show that there are in
Multnomah county, outside of Port
land, 10, 047 persons. The population
of the county is given as 226, 261, the
population of Portland having been an
nounced previously as 207,214. The
whole county shows an increase of
1913, 094. The county has more than
doubled its population in the past ten
years. 1t had population of only
ALSO in 1860, the first year in which
there is a record of the county's peo-
pie.
The figures of the bureau show that
Idaho, which is credited with a total
population of 1876, 1898, as compared
with 161, 272 in 1900, gain of 1919
per cent, has greater increase in
the past ten years than any other state
in the Union thus far announced, ex-
,ept Oklahoma.

Japs Predict Struggle

Victoria, B. C.-Japanese newspa-
pers comment at length on the expedi-
tion Of arrangements for a Chinese
constitution and opening of a parlia-
ment in 1913. The constitution will
be declared in July, 1911, and gen
eral election will take place the follow
ing May. The japanese newspapers
attribute the shortening of the time to
apprehensions engendered by the
Russo-Japanese alliance and the an
nexation of Corea. japanese newspa-
pers predict a struggle to the death be-
tween Manchu and Chinese.

SHANGHAI RIOTS SERIOUS.

Victoria, B. c. - Serious riotinp
followed the outbreak of bubonic pla-

that the health officers took sufferers
to the hospital to secure their eyes and
hearts for foreign medicine, and the
health officers we're assaulted. Riot
ing followed, and the Shanghai volun-
teer corps was called out to protect
foreigners and property.
The recent outbreak against foreign
ers in Kwangtung was fomented by
anti-dynastic rebels. Insurgents from
Human aided, and it was not until
8, 900 troops were sent that the upris-
ing was suppressed. Churches and

Fatal Portent Fulfilled.

New York-For the reason that both
his brother and his sister had died just
as each was approaching the age Of
II, John Smyth, a young resident of
the Upper East Side, had frequently
expressed fear that he would never
live to celebrate his own 18th birthday.
He was nearing what he considered
this crucial age, when Saturday he fell
eight stories through the elevator shaft
of a new building at Broadway and
Ninety-second street, and died as the
last rites of the church were being adj
ministered to him.

Phoenix, Ariz. Rapid progress is
being made toward completing Ariz-
ona's constitution, and unless unfore-
seen developments occur. the conven-

The afternoon session was largely
consumed by the third reading and

cities of 3, 500 population or greater
the power to frame their own charters.

an entirely new and unexpected aspect
here tonight when it became known
that the government had made over
lures for peace. The peace commits
sion has been appointed by Diaz, ac-
cording to special dispatch fom Chi

men, but the pesonnel is not given.
The explanation of this move is that
foreign interests have brought strong
pressure to bear on the government to
end the turmoil by placating the in
