Mr. Eggleston's third story In a group, of which his recent very successful "Dorothy South" is the second, dials with the cany stages of the civil war, as witnessed from the southern point of vie, and yet with out a touch of sectionalism, and thus car ries on his delightful and authoritative studies of American conditions In the south.

Hut anyone mho has watched the process of throwing a pot on tbe wberlt of blowing glass, or of beating up metal out of sheet, will hare noticed how dozens of vitally beautiful forms are produced cn tbe way to the final dullness predestined by the tirasing. It Is tbe thought of this Individual de velopment of ideas that is uppermost throughout the book to stimulate the stu dent's native powers, and to encourage bis originality. He is even taught to make his own tools, to beat his own metal, to draw his own wire, and, In short, to com plete tbe entire operation from beginning to end. Published by D. Appleton t Co. Theodore Burt Sayre is the author cf "Tom Moore." It Is founded on the same Incidents as his successful play, as pre sented by Andrew Mack. The author calls it "an unhlstorlcal romance, founded on certain happenings in tbe life of Ireland's greatest poet." All lovers of the author of "Tba Last Rose of Summer" and "Love's Young Dream" will find this an exception ally interesting book. It is divided into four parts, the subjects and order as fol lows: "One Afternoon In Ireland." "One Afternoon in England." "Two Evenings in High Society" and "A Night of Adventure." It begins with tbe poet as a young fellow out angling and carries him through vari ous eiperiences of both bitter disappoint ments and rejoicable fortunes. Moore's courtship of Mistress Bessie Dyke brings out a love tale of unusual Interest, while bis fall from royal favor and ths regaining of tbe same help to enliven the story. The poet' wit carries a Tela of merriment and humor through the entire novel, even during discouraging momenta. Published by Fred erick A. Stokea company.

"Six Trees" is the title of a book written by Mary E. Wllkina Freeman in which she tella of tbe trees near which her people dwelt, of the Influences of the trees and people upon each other, and has interwoven many amusing or pathetic incidents of dally life with that minute and intelligent art of which she is completely mistress. The titles of the stories are: "The Elm." "The Arple," "The Lombardy Poplar," "The Great Pine." "The Balsam Fir," "The WhUe Birch." The alory of the elm tree, for Instance, is tbe story of the widowed old man who owned It and took refuge in its branches when be was about to be taken away from his borne and put in the care of strangers. The tree. In giving him a hiding place, saved him, and be found a congenial home with sympathetic neighbors. Tbe story tells bow he had built a bouse from a lifetime's savings, and lost it, and of his anger when the ' new purchaser added cupolas and bay windows. It seemed to the old man like gilding gold, and he be haved so strangely that when the bouse burned down he was suspected of causing it. But he found sanctuary In the old elm tree, and, through its means, a peaceful home. Published by Harper Bros. The above books are for sale by tbe Me geath Stationery Co., 1308 Farnam street.

Victoria dock, situated on the east bank of tbe Willlamette river, north of tbe railroad bridge, was entirely destroyed by fire about noon today together with 1.000 tons of a heat and 2.ooq tons cf salt stored on tbe dork. The total loss is estimated at $iX, (00. Tbe insurance is about $340,000. It seems certain that the f re was started by an incendiary, as a man was seen leav lng the dock after the fire bad gained some headway. The police station was nudCed as soon as possible, but before an officer ar rived tbe man disappeared. Three times during the last fortnight fires have been started on docks In this city and it is aurposed that the same man is responsible for all of them. The Bre broke out. shortly before soon and It looked for a while as though the entire line of docks on tbe east aide of tbe river would be burned; indeed, several times Irving dock, adjoining, csught fire, but by diligent efforts on the part of tbe fire department the flames were confined to Victoria dock and a few small buildings nearby. Several small bouses near the dock were destroyed, the Icrs on tbcm aggregating 16.000.

If you could buy back your lost health on the INSTALLMENT PLAN say 50 cents a week for a limited number of weeks until cured would you do it? Here is a plan worth trying. Taking into account truir pnwer to cure, DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE are the most economical medicine, without exception. These pills have effected vuiw in cases of Partial Paralysis, Locomotor Ataxia, Rheumatism, Anemia and other serious disev of the Blood and Nerves. They have cured in hundreds of cases wnere ordinary medicines had been tried and failed- They hav restored to helpless invalids the full use of limbs that had long been f owerlCiS. That it has done this is the best guarantee that the remedy will not disappoint when used for simpler ailments. Taking one pill after each meal (as required for minor troubles) a fifty cent box of the pills affords nearly two weeks' treatment. For chronic diseases, ii wnich the maximum dose is reached, the cost of treatment does not usually exceed an average of fifty cents per week. Is this not worth a trial? ? .! The following statements are made by people who have been cured and whose sole inducement to allow their names to be printed is the hope of commending this means of recovery to those who still s jffer. They are not famous people but they are honest people who have bought Dr. Will iams' Pink Pills, have been cured by them and are grateful to them.
