James Monroe
BY GEORGE FITCH,
Author OF "At Good Old Siyyaub.s
!. ANIES NONROE - IL - -.

= AMES MONROE was the fifth presi.
dent of the United States. and was
~ the only president who was ever
reelected without causing apopIexy to
the opposition.
James Monroe was born in Virginia. in
Westmoreland county, which produced
most Of our early presidents, and has
produced very little since, owing to the
bashfulness of railroads about entering
it. Monroe was the son of rich parents,
and went to William and Mary college.
where he spent his time in study, thus
proving that a young man can become
president, even if he neglects athletics
and other college activities. He was
wounded in the revolution, and in 1888
became "a delegate to the continental
congress at the age of p. He was
minister to Franco, and governor of
Virginia afterward, and finally drove the
biggest land bargain on record. In 1903
ne picked I'D Louisiana for SIS, 100000,
it being cheap at 100 times the amount.
Later on, when president, he picked up
Florida. He was an inveterate shopper.
Monroe would never have been presi-
dent but for the shortness of human
memory. After he had negotiated the

1t will cost SIPS, 900. Before The
Day Book printed Tom Mann's speech
about it, it was planned to have it
cost over $150,000, but the packers
have decided that their appetite isn't
quite as good as they thought at first.
But more interesting than the
story of the lavish feast, amid the
hunting scene, is the announcement
made by Gustav Bisschoff, ST., presi-
dent of the association, that steak

The penalty for picking a few
grapes on the stock farm at Geneva,
owned by Herbert T. Crane, son of
the late R. T. Crane, seems to be
death.
Cranes place is called the Wild
Rose. 1t takes up many acres of
land. - 3D.
Today Benjamin Benedict, super.
intendent of the farm, saw a couple
OF men on the place. He rushed to-
ward them, with his shot gun and
fired. One man fell, the other fed.
Doctors say the shot man will die.
Benedict claims the men refused
to move after he saw one of them
reach for bunch of grapes. The
dying man has been unable to tell his
side. Public opinion has forced the
falling of Benedict. -.-..:

New York, Sept. 22.-While fifty

Twenty thousand persons marched

was black-draped Even Broadway,
the street ''of a million lights" hung
flags at half mast and laughter was
checked.
Drawn by sixteen black horses, led
by eight firemen and eight policemen,
the mayors coffin was perched ten
feet above the roadway on giant
funeral car, while the honorary pail
bearers strobe alongside.
Apart from the funeral procession
honor was paid to the dead mayor
in many ways in the city. At 1880
O'Clock the engines on every boat of
the municipal ferry system stopped
for five minutes; from 1870 to II
o'clock every school in the city was

HOT LAKE HAS
CHANGED HANDS.
Dr. c. W. Tape, Its Former Manager,
Now in Charge.

Hot Lake, in Union County,
one of the favorite resorts of
Eastern Oregon, and renowned
for the healing qualities OF its
waters, has recently changed
management. A syndicate as
sumed control on Monday. June
10th, and DIR. G. w. Tape, who
was formerly in charge, again
assumes the position of manager.
Since leaving Hot Lake in 1904,
he has had charge of Arrowhead
Springs in Southern California.
but was induced to return to
Oregon.
The entire institution will be
renovated, necessary alterations
made, and especial attention paid
to those who desire to avail them
selves of the waters. Their
medicinal value has been
thoroughly established.
Those who are not afflicted with
any ailment, but who simply de-
sire to rest and enjoy the freedom
of country life. will find the
hotel a desirable place. The
rooms are large. with all modern
conveniences, the grill supplied
with the best in the market.
There is a large lobby, wide,
glass enclosed porches. billiard
and pool tables. card rooms and
a large dancing hall. No bar is
maintained and no liquor sold on
the premises.
Hot Lake is situated directly
on the main line of the O-W r.
& NJ, in Union County, It is
easy of access and in addition to
the excellence of the waters and
the comforts Of the hotel. offers
such sports as hunting and fish,
ing to those who care to go afield
or follow a stream.
Under the new management,
Hot Lake viii at once become as
popular as formerly with the
people who need treatment for
some ailment and with those who
simply want a place to rest from
their business or household
duties.

Veterinarian Recommends
Arsenic For Heayes

Care in exercise and feeding
together with arsenic acid is the
treatment for heaves recon-
mended by DIR. B. w. Hollis of
the veterinary science depart
ment of the Oregon Agricultural
College in a recent reply to an
inquiry from a McMinville man.
He says:
There is no absolute cure for
heaves. True heaves is due to
an anatomical change in the
minute structure of the lung
tissue that cannot be replaced.
The little partitions which separ-
ate the air cells in the lung have
been broken down and there is
nothing which will cause these
to be replaced.
"Heaves may be palliated to a
certain extent, however. by pro-
per feeding and careful exercise.
together with a long course Of
arsenic acid. You are correct in
your assumption that. in feeding.
hay should be reduced and grain
increased. You should feed about
] h., of hay for each 100 lbs. of
live weight of the horse daily.
The reason for not feeding very
much hay lies in the fact that
hay, being bulky, will overload
the stomach and press forward
on the lungs and cause more or
less difficulty in breathing. The
arsenic acid should be given in
the form of Fowler's Solution, /
or. every third day. This con-
tains arsenic and should be given
with care.
In exercising the animal.
watch the breathing and if he
seems to have very much trouble
with breathing. he should either
be stopped or allowed to move
with a very slow gait. Six
months to a years treatment
along this line will bring about a |
temporary recovery usually. The
trouble will return however, If |
the horse is put to hard work and
fed Improperly"
