A retired professor of mechanical engineering was called upon to deliver a few lectures on invention to the senior engineering classes. His first injunction was that when one attempts to devise machine to do certain thing, one must consider directly the Fundamental operations to be perform ed and must wipe from the mind all existing methods and all preconceived notions. He stated that one so called inventor attempted in the days of the scythe to invent a moving machine Being familiar only with the scythe. he designed a horse drawn machine which would swing a seythe- He simply replaced the man by a mech anisrn. It is needless to say that his invention did not survive.

ZELAYA IS SOUGHT
 ON MURDER CHARGE

Washington, Nov 25-A requisition made by the Government of Nicaragua for the arrest of Jose Santos ZeIaya, former dictator of that republic. has been honored and a warrant issued by Attorney-General MacReynolds.
 The Nicaraguan Legislative Assem- bly, has arranged for the trial of ze- 1aya before the supreme court on a. charge of murdering the two Ameri- cans, Cannon and Groce. Understand ing that such a, course would be ap- proved by the United States, the Mica ragual Assembly presented it's request for the extradition of Zelaya through Secretary of State Bryan.
 It is said that Zelaya has been cited to stand trial before the supreme court of Managua on a charge of robbery involving the sum of $11,500.
 The warrant for zelaya's arrest has been forwarded to New York, where Federal officers will try to serve it upon the former Nicaraguan President. Since his arrival in this country a few weeks ago, after nearly four years Of exile in Europe, Zelaya has been at the WaIdorf-Astoria-

The pores of the skin are little mouths. Each has a sort of valve that opens into tiny canals connect ing with the blood. These mouth like pores become closed When these canals fill up, the valve refuses to work and pimDIes, bIotches, rash, tet- ter, liver spotss etc, appear.
 Stuart's Calcium Waters keep the pores open and the canals then carry off the waste matter the blood emp ties into them.
 Don't use cosmetics. They will not hide pimples long, and then they clog the skin. You ought to know that the skin breathes in air almost like the lungs The pores throw off i'm purftf6s every minute of the day. To plaster the skin with paste, etc., Is to actually prevent nature doing her work.

South African Lame Sickness.

An investigation of the South Afri- can disease known as 1amziekte. or lame sickness. suggests that it is due to a special plant poison that is gen erated under abnormal conditions in grasses or other plants that are nor maIly harmless. It's development seems to be associated with unusual weather and soil experiences. of which summer drought is important Through such conditions willing would favor the for nation of the poison, and this gives explanation for the common belief that the disease results from eating wilted plants.

VISITOR FROM ARIZONA

Mrs. M. c. McKibbon of Mesa, Ari-
zona, arrived in OrOville accompanied
by her young daughter, Thursday last,
and will spend the summer with her
parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Geo. w. LOudon,
at their home in the Similkameen val
ley. Mr.. Mckibbon will be remember
ed by the residents of Loomis. where
he was electrician in charge of the
Palmer mountain tunnel plant for a
long time, and in his profession one
of the best that has ever held a po-
sitinn of like kind in this state. Mr..
McKibbOn received an appointment as
electrician on the government recla-
nation work in Arizona some four
years ago, and of course made good.
Mrs. McKibbon, as Miss Ada Loudon,
spent many years of her life in Loom
is. She brought with her many pho
tographic views of the government
work in progress on the desert lands
of Arizona desert lands no longer, as
the application of water to the once
unattractive barren wastes has made
of the land the most productive on the
coast. Everything is grown through
the long list of commercial products
Indigenous to the soil, from oranges
to alfalfa, and the coutry is covered
with pretty homes occupied by pros
porous people. Towns have sprung
into existence like magic and grown
into cities, and the winter climate
which is ideal, attracts visitors from
all over the world. For any one but
native the summers are rather Op-
pressive, as the heat is intense, and
Mrs. McKibbOn came north to escape
the August roast.

BRIDGE WORK

Work that was suspended on the
Ophir bridge at the time when high
water and navigation put an end to
construction will commence again the
latter part of this week. An engine
with which to operate pile driver.
the piling and the crew to handle the
machinery and material is here, and
will be forwarded to the scene of
operations. Several smaller bridges
between Ophir and Pateros have been
put in. The bridges across the Okla
hogan and Methow rivers are works
of greater magnitude, especially the
former where draw is necessary to
meet the requirements of navigation.
1t will be two or three months before
the Ophir bridge is open for use. If
the track laying crew cannot be used
on the north end of the branch until
the bridge can be used it will be late
in the season before trains will be
running through to Patheros. In the
meantime track laying is going ahead
north from Wenatchee. There is still
some 20 miles of road bed to iron
before the Chelan river is reached.
The fact that construction is steadily
under way and is being pushed as
eXpeditiOusly as possible is encourag-
ing to the public, and insures the

FIGURING ON PLACER MINING

Frank Griffin, who spent a number
of months in Seattle. returned to Oro-
Vile Tuesday. Mr.. Griffin has been
working on mining proposition for
long time, in which the object is to
work the banks and bars of the Simil-
SGmeen river for placer gold. This
can be done by dredging or hydraulic
washing, and from the known extent
OF the presence OF placer gold in the
wash it is really unaccOuntable that
ONE one, or some company, has not
carried out this experiment long ago.
i,ich bar only short distance west
OF Oroville, was the scene of placer
excitement over so years ago, and
thousands of dollars of gold were TAX
ell out by the crude means then used
by the prOspector, the pan, the cradle
and the sluice box. The river shores
have been worked spasmodically and
perfunctOrily by prospectOrs ever
since the days of that ancient STAN
pede, with Indifferent results. The
cOlors and the pure quill are there,
and careful examination and tests
have proved that the average cubic

Griffin is accompanied by gentlemen
who have had experience in placer
mining. They have come over to look
into and examine the ground. If it
looks promising to them a plant will
be installed and placer mining in
augurated on scale that will yield
substantial returns

A GENTLEMAN OF TALENT

The Indian ball team from ST.
Mary's college that stopped over in
Oroville last Thursday was under
charge of William E Courtney, one
of the professors of the college, who
is also the athletic director of the
institution. Mr.. Courtney is not only
an instructor, but lecturer and lit
orator of wide reputation. He is at
the Omak Mission under engagement
with the great publishing house of
Doubleday, Page & Co., to write a
romance founded upon the life of
Father de Rouge, one of the pioneer
missionaries of the Catholic church
Father de Rouge has devoted his life
to carrying the cross to the Indians of
the northwest. He has lived for years
among the natives, and has accomp-
lished a great work Christianizing his
wards. There is a halo of romance
even in the quiet, plodding, earnest,
self-sacrificing life of an Indian mis-
sionary and under the subtitle and
versatile pen of Mr.. Courtney will be
woven story of thrilling interest.

WORTHY OF ENCOURAGEMENT

Scott Bennett, of Tonasket. spent
Saturday in Oroville Mr. Bennett IS
the miller at the TOnasket Touring
mill, entering that establishment n
short time ago. He is man of large
experience in the milling business,
and wherever he has had charge the
brand of flour produced secured
recognized place in the market. He
is giving the best of his knowledge to
perfecting the Tonasket brand, and
the mill is turning out quality of
bread ingredient that should appeal
to the housewives, who are the bread
makers of this upper country. This
paper believes in supporting local in
stitutions including local products,
and especially so when the local pro-
duct compares favOrably with the i'm
ported article Mr.. Schweikert, pro-
prietOr of the Tonasket mill, has had
an up hill struggle getting established.
His mill is local institution in the
sense that any nearby valley industry
is local, and it should be encouraged
1t provides to certain extent a home
market for grain. and if the output
can be increased so much will the
demand for grain expand. 1t is well
worth while to encourage efforts in
the milling line in this country.

CAUGHT A TARTAR

Last week some nocturnal animal,
with chicken weakness was haunt
ing Frank Samson's hennery, occas-
ionally picking up a pullet au1 maxi
ing life generally miserable for the
poultry. Mr. Samson became weary
of supplying chicken suppers for the
four footed prowler, besides con-
tinuation of the tax would soon
cut the family out of Sunday deli
cacy. So he set trap. The chicken
thief walked into it. The shocked
and surprised prisoner dashed into a
convenient hole dragging the trap
after him, leaving the end of the chain
on the outside. Missing the trap in
the dewy morn when he went out to
see what luck he had had, Mr.. Samson
discovered the route it had taken and
found the connecting link of chain.
With mighty tug out came the trap
and the furry attachment Mr.. Sam
son knew at once what he had. No
one had tC tell him. Mr.. Samson has
a reputation for nerve, but in this
Instance he displayed the white fea.h-

A NEW ARRANGEMENT

A. E. Melin has been appointed train
agent on the branch run, and assumed
his duties Wednesday. Probably the
name train agent" is misnOmer, but
it answers the purpose as designating
Mr.. Mclin's position, it being some
thing after the nature of travelling

rntil Mr.. Costello, the local agent
could exchange correspondence with
the consignees, and the amount of
carriage due on the shipment remit

would be forwarded to their destin-
alton thus consuming much time.
This method of procedure piled up
work at the local office where there
is never any shortage of labor, and
was very inconvenient to shippers
along the line. This unsatisfactory
situation is responsible for the pres

ORovILLE. WASHINGTON, JULY 1s. 1913

Dy the ambitious young valley town
as day of pleasure and entertain
ment, and dispite the unpropitious
weather conditions of the morning
ana early afternoon, scores of peo-
pie from all the surrounding towns
and communities joined the citizens
OF that place in the promised Joy
And Tonasket made good on the
promise.
The most striking feature of the
gathering at Tonasket was the large
number of automobiles Apparently
the majority of the people of northern
Okanogan county have abandoned the
faithful, If somewhat erratic, cayuse
Tor the modern space and time ami
hilator. The streets of the town and
the side lines at the ball game, the
principal sport of the day, were lined
with automobiles, and one unfamiliar
with the purpose of the celebration
might readily have mistaken it for
an utOmobile show.
The OrOville club and the Aeneas
valley team contested for the base
ball hOnOrs. The game was called
as early in the afternoon as the
weather conditions would permit and
in spite of the heavy shower, the
ground was soon dry enough to per-
NIT OF playing. Much interest was
displayed by the crowd in the out
come of the game, which was exciting
from the announcement of the batter
les by the umpire to the final out in
the ninth inning, even though the
score of to l in favor of the Aeneas
valley club would indicate a one sided
contest. Luck broke against Oroville
from the start. A bad bound of a hot
grounder to short when Aeneas valley
had three men on bases in the End
inning gave that team lead that
could not be overcome. BrittOn
pitched cool, heady game for Aeneas.
and O'Berg behind the bat did fine
work, his throwing to bases approach
ing the spectacular. Oroville was
handicapped in not having it's regu-
lar catcher, Prince subing in that DO
sition. While he did excellent work,
neither Hedger nor Smith were free
to turn themselves loose, and they
were hit harder and oftener than they
otherwise would have been The
grounds were poor second base being
several feet lower than home plate
and the diamond was rough and full
of stones that made fielding uncertain
and difficult. A number of bets were
made on the game, considerable mon
ey changing hands on the outcome.
The ball game was preceded by a
f00-ydrd dash in which James East
won in pretty race from Monte Rags
dale, of Republic.
The hospitality of Tonasket was
thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated /
by all who attended the celebration
and the citizens of that town have
reason to congratulate themselves on
the success of their first venture at
entertaining the general public.
