Blues.

The privilege of meeting Miss Hell
en- Keller and talking with this won
derfu blind girl, was accorded Bird
we'll E. Sutlive, OF this city, In rath-
err unusual manner recently at Duluth,
MINI. Mr.. Sutlive was greatly i'm
pressed with the blind girls philo-
sophical view Of life, and suggests
that thinking of her lot may be a
good cure for the blues, for those
more fortunate.
When Miss Keller lectured in the
saubert theatre In Minneapolis, Mr..
Sutliye endeavored to get seat In the
theatre, but found that everything was
sold. He was greatly disappointed
but there was nothing to do but hope
to have better luck some other time.
That time came when he was in Du-
luth. He was going down in the eleva-
tor at the hotel when he heard the
elevator boy say to a bell-hop, that
she can't see or hear He asked
who they were talking about, and the
boys told him Helen Keller was In
the house.
Inquiry at the clerks desk revealed
the fact that Miss Keller had spoken
at Duluth the night before and was
leaving on the afternoon train. The
clerk further suggested that Miss
Keller and Mrs. Macy, her instruct
ress and companion were going out
for walk, and perhaps Mr.. Sutliye
might be able to see the girl that way.
The local man followed the clerks
advice and walked out behind Miss
Keller and Mrs. Macy. AS they went
up the street he passed them and then
turned to look into the window, in or.
der to get look at Miss Keller as
she passed. Summoning up his cour-
age, he decided to speak to the pair,
and approaching Mrs. Macy told her
OF the ill-luck he had had at Mime
apolis,s and that he understood he
was going to be cheated out OF hearing

Sentiment in favor of new bridge
and the construction of structure that
would be good for 80 years and more
was expressed by several speakers at

tiOn to have the people of Marion and
Polk counties and Salem petition their
respective county courts Ior "A new
BRUCE had been made and put. The dis
cussiOn was then open.
c. p. Bishop, of this city, said that
it was necessary to keep open communl-
cation between Salem and Polk county.
He suggested that repairs to the Old
bridge be maze that would keep it in
travel order until the new structure
could be completed. Where the bridge
should be built made no difference to
him, he declared, just so it was built as
soon as possible.
Fred SteuslOff averred that it was no
question that the old bridge was in "A
bad condition and that it was danger

MAKE even temporary repairs as that
would be waste OF money. The practi'
cal way is to close the bridge and put

San Francisco, Aug. l0.--Japan is
having desperate troubles in its at

rivals here from the Far East. At the

great hopes were entertained, because
of the fertility and natural resources Hf
the country, of making it support 4
considerable portion of the home coun-

doing this already, say those who ha e
been there recently, were it not for the

years of efforts to conquer than with
small bodies of troops, many of which
were cut to pieces in the remote in

campaign has been launched N the hope
of more speedily ending the constant
