How can Tabby sit at the table

Tabby was sleeping under a
chair, but she was used to being
awakened and did not murmur at
being pulled out from her sleep
ing place now.
Get bonnet of Betty's," said
Priscilla's mother Then she took
the scissors and cut from a piece
of cloth little bib and tied it
around Tabby's neck. Priscilla
came running back with the bon
net and watched with big eyes
what her mother did.
The bonnet was tied on Tabby's
little head, and then Priscilla's
mother said: Miss Tabitha Grey,
you are invited to a tea party, and
l hope you will be nice-mannered

Tabby winked and yawned in re-

Tabby winked and blinked, and
then she closed her eyes and sat
very still just as if she knew what
was expected of wellbehaved

around the little table.
Priscilla's mother sat down on
the floor beside Priscilla's chair
and helped eat and drink tea.
All went we'll for little while
and no one noticed that Tabby
opened her eyes: but she did, and
then something happened. Tabby
jumped, the table was upset and
over on the floor went poor Betty
and Teddy bear, and Priscilla, too.
Tabby was under the sofa and
Priscilla and her mother thought
Tabby was tired of playing tea
party, but in a minute she came
running back, her bonnet awry and
her bib on her back, but in her
mouth she carried something which
she brought right to the little table
which Priscilla had set again, and
on it Tabby laid mouse.
This time Priscilla and her mo-
Their jumped and the table went
over again and the mouse ran, for
Tabby had brought it alive to them;
but when she saw it running she
chased it, and this time she did
not return with her part Of the

laughed when they got over their

Story for Tonight
THE TEA PARTY

Little Priscilla Allen stood look
ing out of the window watching the
big drops of rain chase each other
down the window pane and end
in one big splash on the sill outside
just as sometimes the tears from
Priscilla's pretty eyes splashed on
her clean white dress.
1t had been raining all day and
Priscilla could not go outdoors to
play.
ooh dear mother" she said at
last, II want somebody to play
with; / wish the rain would go
away"
"You have Betty and Teddy and
Tabitha Grey" said her mother.
Priscilla came away from the
window and went and stood by her
mothers chair.
Betty is my dolly" said Pris-
ella, land Teddy is Teddy Bear,
but who is Tabitha Grey, mother?"
"Why don't you know who Tab
itha Grey is?" asked her mother
with smile. "You think hard and
see If you cannot guess"
Priscilla stood thinking for
minute and then she laughed. ooh,
l know, mother; you mean my kit
ty, Tabby.
But, mother. don't mean Betty
or Teddy or Tabby. l mean little
girls to play tea party with.
cannot play tea party with Tabby
or Teddy or Betty"
81 think we can have a nice tea
party with them" said her mother
"You set your little table and I
will see what l can find in the
pantry for tea"
Priscilla knew that her mother
was just the best playmate little
girl could wish for, so without ask
ing any more questions she ran
away to get the table and the
dishes.
When it was ready her mother
brought in some little crackers and
put them on one side of Priscilla's
little dishes, and she put real tea
in the little teapot, and cake in
tiny little squares was put on lit
tie plate, and, best of all Priscilla
thought was a dish Of little red and
white candies.
Priscilla drew up her little chair,
eager to begin her tea, when her

Zinc Find Sells Black Eagle
Mine Quickly for $100, 900

Albany-That the Black Eagle Min
ing company, of Gates, had been sold
to L. S. Barnes, of Salem, Or, for
100000, became known here this
week.
Mr.. Barnes happened to pass the
Black Eagle mine while on his way
from an inspection of the Gold Creek
mine in which the owners were at
tempting to interest him. Passing the
ore dump he noticed some formations
which indicated to him that they had
been formed by fumes from zinc de-
posits. He inspected the mine and
found vein of this formation in the
side of the tunnel.
A bill of sale was made out before
the reason for Mr.. Barnes desire to
purchase the mine became known.
Work has been started on new shafts.
l.. S. Barnes, the purchaser, is the
president of the Capital Journal Pub
fishing company, of Salem, and was
formerly in charge of all the iron
mines held by the Hartman interests.
He is recognized as one of the fore
most mining men of the country.
As. result of the sale the stock
holders in the Silver King Mining
company, the Gold Creek Mining COM
pany, the Crown Mining company and
the Ogle Mountain Mining company
are much excited, as all these mines
are in the same district and might be
affected if real strike has been made.
Prospectors are also much excited and
are stalking out claims close by.

10000 Acres Embraced in

Vale-Malheur county presents re-

which speaks well for the coming

On May 10 the Warm Springs irriga-

issue to the land owners at an early
date.
June IA the unanimous vote creating
the community improvement irrigation
district, embracning 10000 acres of
the best land and most improved
farms in Willow River valley, shows
further the awakening spirit of prog
ress and desire for unity so necessary
for community success.
The creation of this district on Will
low River brings once more into the
limelight the great and wonderful ca
pacity of the Brogan and Jameson
country for production of land products
tof any kind under climatic conditions
which have carried destruction to the
greater portion of Eastern Oregon and

Better Ways.

Progress is no monopoly of the can
non makers. In one issue of the
Electrical World" we note that the
Columbus (Ohio) Railway Power and
Light company has set out to make its
buildings safer. Fire escapes, stan
dard doors, and other improvements
have been added along with a rigid
system Of inspection to prevent the
accumulation of waste and grease, so
that in three years fire risks and in
surance rates have been cut nearly in
half In Johnston, S. c., F. M. Boyd,
manager for the Carolina Public Sefv-
ice company, has devised new type
of twenty-fiyefoot pole with twelve
foot mast-arm sticking out on the
street side so as to keep the poles
lined up on the curb but get the wires
away from the beautiful old elms and
water oaks that are the glory of John
ston's highways. Anyone who has
seen the ruin and mutilation left by
fanatical tree trimmers will appreciate
Mr.. Boyd's device. The Ohio Electric
Light association reports that its mem
bers have saved from three to five
cents per ton on all coal handled at
certain of their power houses by put
ting in an eight-hour day for firemen.
This ought to interest the old-timers
who think twelve hours toll an in

Many of those whose property was

target of hundreds of Mexican bullets
during the anti-American demonstra-
tion last Saturday night, according to

demonstration ended, the emblem still
faunted in the breeze.
Numerous bullets struck the hotel,
endangering the visitors, who were
nearly all Americans. The mob shout
ed maledictions against the "grin-
goes"
After filling the flag with holes the
mob directed its fire at the flagpole but
was unable to cut it.
About $50 Americans have reached
the border from Cananea. The refu-
gees composed practically the Ameri-

Gales announced that he had lifted the
embargo on Sonora telephone and tele-
graph lines that American consular
representatives might send warnings
urging Americans to leave the state.
He specified, however, that all mess
ages must be written in Spanish.

1t is now asserted with confidence

has been discovered by Dr. Pierce in
his hospital practice, which he be-
lieves is thirty-seven times more po-
tent than lithia, and is the cause of a
drainage outward of the uric acid with
which it comes in contact within the
body. 1t will ward off backache, head
ache, and the darting pains and aches
of articular or muscular rheumatism
--of those diseases which are caused
by too much uric acid, such as gout,
asthma, sciatica, or sore, stiff, aching
joints.
When the kidneys are weak or dis
eased, these natural filters do not
cleanse the blood sufficiently, and the
poisons are carried to all parts of the
body. There follow depression, aches

because old people usually suffer from
hardening and thickening of the walls
of the arteries, due to the excess of
uric acid in the blood and tissues.
DIR. Pierce, chief physician at the
Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
Buffalo, N. Y, has been testing this
wonderful medicine for the relief of
overworked and weakened kidneys,
The relief obtained by sufferers has
been so satisfactory that he determin-
ed to place "ANURIC" with the princi-

could get this ready-to-use medicine.
"ANURIC" is not harmful or poison
