meeting was that acquisitions for ma
terial fer the various departments of
the city should be signed not only by
the recorder as at present, but by the
chairman of the committee for whose
department the material is intended
This point was raised and It was
agreed that the added check on re-
quisitions should be made.
Councilman Estes again proposed
that before any streets are paved
hereafter, that water, sewer and gas
mains should be laid and connections
running to the curbs on either side.
His proposition will be submitted in
the form of an ordinance next week
He pointed out the folly of laying
paving and tearing it up, as has been
done on Jackson street until it is
hardly fit for smooth travel.
Tho fire chief reported five fires
during the month with a total loss OF
$4,000. Five gallons of chemicals
were used and 1900 feet of hose laid.

FEDERAL GAME LAW
HOLDS SAYS WARDEN

Prospective duck hunters who have
been asking each other which law.
federal or state. is supreme with re-
gard to the duck season, may take
the word OF United States Game War
den f. $. cattron. of Portland, as au-
thority. Mr.. Cattron yesterday ex-
planned the conflicting laws. making
1t clear that his men will enforce the
federal statutes regarding migratory
birds.
In the part of oregon west OF the
summit of the Cascade mountains
hunting is permitted under federal
law from October 1 to January Is,
both days inclusive. Strict enforce
ment of this law may be expected, ac-
cording 10 Cattron. who states that
the state law which says. hunting is
permitted from September I6 to De-
cember 81 Is imperative before Octo-
ber !, because federal law is supreme
Thus the federal law prevents hunting
until 3 days after the state opening
date and allows Is days more at the
end OF the season than the state law.
The federal and state laws are re-
versed in Eastern Oregon. adding to
the confusion. The federal law al.
lows hunting Is days before the state |
law. The federal season i'm Eastern !
Oregon begins September 16 and |
closes December 81, both dates be-
ing inclusive. State law names Octo-
ber and January Is as the opening |
and closing dates.
Just what method of law enforce
ment state authorities may take in
view of this mixup Cattron is not sure.

By LADY MARY.

London, November 10.-(Special)-l am told that great preparations are be- Ing made in the south of France for the coming season. The Riviera expects a tremendous renaissance of pleasure and profit. It is said that Monte Carlo is already swarming with men and wom- en who have made money out of the war and who are spending it with a freedom that is entirely satisfactory to the hotel proprietors and to the birds of prey of both sexes who hover in the Vicinity of the Casino
 was told by man connected with ! ths. secret service, who has just come over from the south of France. that women who are about to visit the Ri- vera should be warned concerning va rlous matters of great importance.
 All the thieves in Europe seem to be concentrating their attention upon the south of France just at present." he , said. Practically all of the popular resorts along the Mediterranean coast seem to be marked out for the atten- ton of this class of criminal. If you are thinking of going to Monte Carlo, Nice, Cannes or any other resort of the kind, take special care of your jewels and furs. A thieves market is always available and in practically no case of late has a single stolen article been re- stored through the police to it's owner
 Then there are increased tempta- tions to dazzle the brains of the anna teur gambler. I heard of at least three so-called clubs that have been organ ized between Nice and Monte Carlo for the express purpose of gambling. It is anticipated that such crowds will visit the Casino that the overflow will also want to be accommodated with oppor- tunities for gaming, and so these pri- vate institutions have been set up and are even now in full swing"
 Lady Aberconway has already ar rived. l am told, at her beautiful villa .at Antibes. From this fairy palace an entrancing view can be obtained over the Gulf of Juan and on toward Nice. Lady Aberconway entertains large par ties of English and American people throughout the season and gives de- lightful garden parties that last through most of the starlit purple

Home Manicuring Lessons

:, You so often hear. women complain that they cannot keep their nails m good condi- tion on account of household duties This sntiquated idea has long since been explcded for the modern Simplex method of manicur. ing makes it possible for the busiest of housewives to have beautiful wsll-kept nails.
 Heretofore it difficult to overcome ragged cutcle, hang mails and discolorations, but now it is an easy matter. All you need IS bottle of Simplex Cuticle Remover Ap- ply freely around the nails, using the mani cure stick wrapped with cotton, slightly pushing back the cuticle at the same time Allow it to remain on the nails for A few moments, then gently work around the nais with the manicure stick until they are en- tirely free from all dead or ragged cuticle. Never cut the cutcle, this stimulates quicker growth and also hardens it.
 Being physician and chemist, I have made careful research for scientific prepara tions for the care of the nails especially for home use, and the results of my efforts are the renowned Simplex Manicuring Prepara tions, sold by all first-class dealers in toilet articles.

 You see,' replied his comrade, in this country we all have to join the temperance society,"
 "'What is that?'
 CT don't know exactly; it is some kind of a sect. I belonged to it once but it is so long ago that I forget; I can make no reckoning of time when I get no drinks to count by; but remember we all had to pay a beaver skin apiece.'
 ""That is big price to pay for the privilege of drinking nothing but water. I'll have nothing to do with such sect There was that German Mulokof. He joined the sect and in a few weeks he was dead God knows where he is now. I don't think there is much room for Dutchmen in heav- en; so many Russians go there.'"
 Markof adds that on reaching San Francisco the first building they en- tered was drinking place kept by one of Napoleon's veterans who had served in the campaign of 1872.

EARLY RESIDENTS OF
 ALASKA HAD TASTE
 OF PROHIBITION WAVE

Many Alaskans who look forward to visit to the States at some early date and before general prohibition goes into effect will be able to sym pathize with the early Russian resi- dents of Alaska. By the charter of 1S44 the Russian American Company the supreme power in Russian Amer ica, was forbidden to sell fiearms, ammunition and spirituous liquor to the natives. And this prohibition, according to Bancroft, was followed by an order from the governor that no intoxicating drink should be sold in the colonies.
 It is related that when this order was read to the servants of the com pany many of them shed tears. The temperance cause had but few advo- cates in Russian America One of the men, Markof, who in 1845, sailed from Novo Arkangelsk (Sitka) for San Francisco, thus relates his ex- perience:
 "How easily and willingly the labor of getting the ship under way was performed Each sailor had in his mind that he could enjoy himself for his trouble in the first tap-room in California. In the evening we could see only the outlines of our former home, traced in black, indistinct shapes against the darkening sky. The devil must have planted these sea-otters in these out of the way re- gions," said one of the sailors AS far as we can see land up and down the coast not single rum shop is to be found'

SOLOMON NATIVE CAPTURES
 POLAR BEAR CUBS IN SNON

A recent arrival in Nenana from the Nome district brings word of the capture of two polar bear cubs near Solomon by native. The native who was out hunting, drove his sled right over the cubs which were buried in the snow and made an awful fuss over being disturbed and the native promptly nabbed them.
 He hard hardly got them into his sled when the mother bear appeared and charged right up to the sled be- fore she fell dead riddled with bullets from the natives rife. He loaded the carcass on the sled and made for Nome where the weight of the dressed animal was found to be 800 pounds.
 Solomon is fairly large size town about 35 miles distant in a southerly direction along the coast from Nome.
