A Dalles Merchaut Bunkoed.

A thoroughly scheme forobtaining money was played success-fully on an East End merchant yester-day. A little sawed-of- f Dutchman entered the merchant's store and brokeout voluminously in praise of the efficiency of the sheriff and his deputy,They had just done the finest piece ofdetective work he had ever known inhis life. The Dutchman had slept thenight before at the Columbia hotel,and while asleep, a fellow had creptinto his room and abstracted $72 fromhis pants pockets every cent he hadin the world. The sheriff was promptlynotified and in a marvelously shorttime had traced the thief three stationsup the road and had him under arrest.He had just got a dispatch to that effect and wanted a dollar and a half topay his fare up to where the fellowwas, so as to identify him. He wouldbe back on the next train and wouldrepay the money with thanks. Themerchant had got deeply interested inthe Dutchman's story. His big heartwent out in sympathy, aud witn it thesum asked for dropped into the Dutchman's hand. A few hours afterwardsDeputy Sheriff Sexton was passing themerchant's door, the merchant bailedhim cheerily and slapoed him kindlyon the shoulder said: "Sexton Finproud of you fellows, by George. Thatwas a mighty fine piece of detectivework, catching the fellow who stolethe Dutchman's money." "How isthat," asked Mr. Sexton. I baven'iheard of it." "Haven't heard of it!"gasped the merchant. "Is it possiblethat there is a mistake?'' Aud sureenough there was; the sheriff was tele-

phoned to- He knew nothing aboutit. Mr. Toomey was asked about it- -

Nobody had lost any money in hishouse, and then the truth dawned withfull force on the merchant that ue badbeen delightfully buncoed out of hismoney. Ad effort was made to findthe Dutchman' but be had left forparts unknown

Official Rascality on the Yukon.

Theodore Liebe of Portland, andbrother of Judge Liebe of .this city, isiu town visiting his brother and willremain here till Mouday. M- -. Lieberecently returned from the Yukoncountry whither he went last Spring.He is fully assured that there is plentyof gold there, and quite as much on theAmerican side as on the Canadian.As between the two districts or ratherthe government of them, Mr. Liebe isenthusiastic in the praise of the America u, with him it is and always will beGod's country. The Canadian officialsare a set of unconscionable thieves, j

No man has a bit of thow with tbem ;

unless through the channel of bribery.When the Minion Creek excitementbroke out he saw 200 persons standingn a row, day after day, awaiting the'r

turn to enter claims. The officials wouldask so many questions that not morethan fifteen would succeed daily in theregular way. But it was a commonthing to see a common harlot or black-leg enter by a side door and by bribingthe officials, return with a certificatein a few minutes. He knew a poorfellow who bad rafted a big lot of logsfrom seventy miles above the river.An official arrested him, claiming thelogs had been cut on the lands of JohnDoe, or somebody equally imaginary.The poor fellow was glad to purchasehis liberty by giving one half of hisraft to the man who arrested him.Mr. Liebe knew another man who hada piece of moose that he had shot onthe trail. Moose and caribou were thecommon flesh food of the Dawsonitesat the time. The man had no friendsand no money to biibe his captors, sothey sentenced him U. two years athard labor. Mr. Liebe secured somepromising' claims in American terri-tory and expects to return and de-velop them in the spring.

The Antelope Fair.E. J. Glisan, manager of the fair to

bo given Oct. 13, Hand 15,at Antelope,by the Stockmen's union, is in the cityperfecting arrangements for the fair.No efforts are being spared to make ita succe e. A large exhibit of thorough-bred cattle and sheep is expected, be-

sides hogs, poultry and wool. For thebest in each class liberal cash prem-iums will be paid. The main object ofthe fair is to bring together buyersand producers of fine cattle, horses,sheep and wool. Trials of speed willbe a prominent feature of the fair forwhich the Uniou has provided a splen-did race track. In addition to ot herliberal purses, a special purse of $600will be given to Gilliam county horsemen in a free for all half-mil- e runningrace. Gilliam county, it appears, hasfive racers whose comparative speedhas never been definitely settled. Tbrace alone is certain to be of intenseinterest to Gilliamites, and is expectedto draw a large crowd from that prosperous county. The Antelope peopledeserve the highest praise for theirenterprise in connection with this fairIf half, the zeal that the Antelopershave, were poseessed by the peopletributary to The Dalies fair, the pavil-lion would not hold the exhibits northe fair grounds the people. Mr. Glisanmade arrangements- this afternoonwith Secretary Fred Wilson for the attendance at the fair of the members ofthe executive committee of the Oregon Wool-Grower- s Association.

The Mother's Fay Day.What nav 5rie9 a mother of

a family receive for her labor at the end of aweek ? The husband maybring: borne his regularwaees. borne of the child

ren may be oldenough to earntheirs. But themother, what inher pay for herdays of toil andoften nights ofanxiety f Wei!she is eitherpaid in love orshe isn't paidat an.

The majorityox mothers areperfectly satis- -

tied Witt, fitfimple recompense of loving: appreciation.If any mother doesn't receive that much,it's an awful pity.

It's a sad thing when the mother comesdown sick with overwork or worry, or be-cause some little weakness or disease hasbeen neglected until it gets to be alarming.

It should never be allowed to get to thispoint. She ought to be looked after rightaway. She needs the help of common sensemedical treatment. Of course no one medi-cine will cure everything. A medicine mustbe specially adapted to its particular purpose.

If the digestive organs or the liver are outof order Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-covery is a perfect and scientific remedy.His "Favorite Prescription" is speciallydevised for weaknesses and diseases of thewomanly orgaus; and it is the most potentremedy for these troubles which lias eveibeen invented. '

Where both these conditions exist thesetwo medicines taken alternately constitutea thoroughly scientific coarse of treatment,which has been marvelously successful withthousands of dyspeptic, debilitated andnervous women.

" I take great pleasure in recommending Dr.Pierce' Favorite Prescription. 'Golden MedicalDiscover ' and Pellets,' ' writes Mrs. Jed Law-rence, Sooth Hero, Grand Isle Co.. Vt " Mytrouble was female weakness, kidney disease,neuralgia, change of life and had flowing pells,I took eight bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favoi ..e Pre-scription, seven bottles of 'Golden Medical Dis-covery, and aeven small vial of ' Pellets.'

Internal Revenue Receipts.

The internal revenue covering July.August and Sebtember for this yearamounts to more than the whole oflast year, whisb was $3(52,904.81.

The great increase is due, of course,to the war-ta- revenues. However,all lines show an added volume of busi-

ness. Collector Dunne says be ishaving very little trouble with thedruggists. They are complying withthe law in every detail, and what ap-

peared to be a great difficulty in overcoming has simmered down to nothing.The violation waa doe more to igno-rance than anything else.

The collector has a great deal of correspondence with Alaska, as his distric-

t-includes that territory.
