An uneannx Old M.nsien.

The old MINOR house Of Fritwell.

several tragedies. and the local legend
liz that 1t Is haunted by the ghosts Of
two of the victims. In duel there a
Sir. jackson was killed about the year
1872. when the place was let to fam-
fly named Longueville. There were
two brothers. both of whom were In
love with the same woman. The
younger Imprisoned the other in hu
man dog kennel In an attic. so the
story runs. and kept him there for
fourteen years until he died Of starva
tion. A few yenrs later Sir Baldwin
Wake bought the estate. Sir Baldwin
and his two sons were playing cards
very late one night when quarrel
nrose. The tradition Is thut the father
struck his eldest son no heavy blow
thnt he died Immediately. The father
and the youngest son concealed the
body In the kennel which had seen the
death of Longueville. Twelve years
Afterwnrd Sir Baldwin Is said to have
confessed ON his deathbed that he had
caused the death Of his 10. The hu
nun dog kennel. to which access was
gained through the sliding back of a
cupboard. remained until ten yenrs ago.

DECLARE War on Colds

A crusade of education which aims
that common colds may be uncom-
mon within the next generation has
been begun by prominent New York
physicians. Here is the list Of
''don'ts" which the doctors say will
prevent the annual visitation OF the
cold:
Don't sit In draughty car"
''Don't sleep in hot rooms"
Don't avoid the fresh air."
"Don't stuff yourself at meal time.
Overeating reduces your resistance"
To which we would add-when you
take cold get rid of it as quickly as
possible. To accomplish that you will
find Chamberlain's Cough Remedy

RESOLUTIONS or SYMPATHY

Whereas. the all wise Creator
and prescrvcr who doeth all
things well. has removed from
our midst our beloved brother
and Noble Grand. with whom we
took counsel only a week since,
and with whom we shall meet
no more on earth.
BE il resolved, that in the
death OF Noble Grand and Broth.
ere. A. Bauer that Laurel Lodge
No. l6. St. Johns, Oregon, has
undergone an experience of sad
ness that mere words cannot cX.
press. for in the loss of Brother
Bauer we have lost from our
counsels a brother whose whole
life was characterized by his
fidelity 20 the principles Of Odd
Fellowship and whose plaudits
have been the consolation of his
life.
Brother BAKER was a man i'm
whose prudence and ability as
an executive the Lodge could
rely. and his membership of q
years attest his ability to pro-
mote the good of the Order by
his sterling worth. He seemed
not only 90 comprehend the Just
medium of Lodge measures. but
the rarer quality of inducing
his brothers and co-workers TO
respect and adopt his own
opinions.
He beautifully and exemplarily
discharged his duties as husband
and parent. lie blessed the
Domestic circle by the most
cherished of domestic virtues. by
his sterling integrity. his pru-
dence. and blessed by the purity
Of his heart was strengthened
by the beauty VI his example,
and the excellence of his counsel.
IL was this constancy of virtue.
this fullness and continuity of
character which won and kept
for him the respect and con-
fidence Of his brothers and all
who knew him.
BE il further resolved. that
as a token of respect and devo-
tion that our charter be draped
for a period of thirty days: that |
these resolutions be spread on
the minutes of this Lodge. and !
copy be sent TO the Pacific |
Odd Fellow and one To the st. !
Johns Review, and also one TO !
the bereaved family, who have !
lost a husband and pareat, and
TO whom we extend our heartfelt |
sympathy, realizing that their
father and protector has created |
a monument of love, fidelity and |
virtue, which time can never
eiface. Grecian marble and
Parian bronze may fade away
and decay, but never will the
monument created i'm the minds
of Odd Fellows by those who
have lived as our Noble Grand
and Brother has lived be eiraced.

LIVE WILD BEAR
 CHARGES "Elk" CREW

A bear invOluntarily boarded the launch Elk and nearly swept the crew into the sea while the little craft was under way on Sat- urday, July 26, according to an eye witness who was aboard. The exciting incident occurred under the following circumstances: The Elk was bound from ChicagOff to Sitka. While crossing White Stone narrows about 4:30 in the afternoon, a large bear was sighted swimming the channel. Captain Peter Rasmussen seized his trusty rifle and shot bruin sufficiently dead to stop his pro- gross. The tackle was rigged and the bear hauled aboard ship. No sooner had the eX-swimmer been safely landed than he con- menced to make things interest," ing. He charge with all the fe- rocity with which a wounded bear is credited and it looked for a moment as if all hands, includ- ing the passenger, would be driv- en into the sea.
 Chief Engineer Milo Coughlin, however, grabbedd a gun an pumped lead into the big fellow until he lay permanently quiet.
 On their arrival at Sitka the bear was placed on the scales and was found to weigh i50 pounds. The big animal is still an object of curiosity among the inhabi- tants of the ancient tOWn.--Ju- neau Empire.

TACOMA, WASH.
(By George Fitch) .

Tacoma, Wash, is not an eX- hortation to wrap up bath and carry it to Your residence. 1t may sound that way but it re- fers to one of the most irrespon- sible and uncomfortable cities on the Pacific slope--Tacoma, once the rival of Seattle and, accord ing to the Tacoma papers, to- morrow the rival of Chicago.
 Tacoma is situated on one of the many vermiform appendices of Puget Sound. It's feet are buried in the mud flats, which are sold periodically to eastern investors, and it's head is in the fir forest 300 feet above. Ia coma slopes gently up out of the water and continues to slope un- til the tourist gives up in despair and goes home to soak his ten don of Achilles in arnica.
 Tacoma is also situated on three great transcOntinental railroad lines and all trains stop there. Most of them not only stop there but disintegrate and go no further. Steamships from hundred ports root their way up the Sound tO Tacoma and ev- cry year whole fir forest comes down to the city and is shipped for foreign ports.
 Tacoma was first thought of in 1883, and seven years later it had 38,O0O people, most of whom lived in fir houses. Ia coma was first modelled in fir like Portland, but has since been built in brick and stone. From 1890 to 1900 Tacoma enjoyed a long refreshing nap while Seat tic blazed away with great en- ergy and assumed a commanding lead which still makes the Taco man mad when he discusses it. By 1900 Tacoma had only gained i,7OO additional citizens. Since then it has grown with great fu- ry and now contains 100000 people, 99;OOO of whom will sell
