SOME COSTLY ilOQKS.
Probably the most costly set of
books in this city is a 20-vo1ume
of Edition Motley's Rise- of the
Dutch Republic," owned by Clar
ence II. Clark, the banker. These
volumes are said to have cost their
owner $50,000. Originally the set
consisted of nine Imndsomely
printed volumes which have been
extended by the insertion of same
2500 portraits, engravings, auto
graphs and maps, making the pres
ent elaborate and costly work.
The illustration's were inserted in
appropriate places , opposite the
text, so that the scenes of the bat
tles and persons figuring in them,
could be better represented and
appreciated by the type alone.
The set is not quite filled with il
lustrations, however, and Mr.
Clark is still diligently seeking
after more material.
The twenty-nine volumes are
handsomely bound in Levant Mo
rocco, and this item was not the
least'of those contributing to the
cost of the books. The volumes
are of the imperial folio size so
necessary for such an elaborate
The set is considered to be
the finest, most complete and
costly edition of "Motley's History
ot the Rise of the Dutch Republic"
in the world.- Philadelphia Rec

Arkansas City, Kansas, April
IS. Ten thousand boomers began
the march this morning across the
Cherokee strip for Oklahoma.
Two nights had drenched the coun
try, but the pilgrims crowded for
ward in the mud-choked roads as
far as they were permitted to go.
At daylight the teams of the boom
ers stood with 'noses over the line.
Meanwhile the troops of the Ffth
cavalry were striking camp, and
at S o'clock they rode down
to the head of the road. As the
watch noted the exact hour of 8,
Captain Hays gave the word. The
bugles rang, the sentries who had
all night held back the throng gal
loped to their places in the column
with a parting cheer, and the
boomers broke over the line into
the territory. Their white-topped
schooners now stretch away to the
southern horizon, over the un
broken plain, affording a splen
did spectacle. The move
rnent will, continue unremittingly
for two or three days.
BY DEUREE3.
Over in eastern Oregon there is
a timid chap of about thirty sum
mers, but who has a very nice lit
tle home, no companion save a
tomcat. Having concluded to
capture a certain j'oung lady, who
may not be particularly infatuated
with- him, he is coming to the
point by degrees. Fffst he made
the old man a present of a good
plow, then he gave the old lady a
rooster aud three hens, next he
threw two quarters out in the grass
and told her little brother he
might have them if he could find
them after tl;at he slipped into
the hands of the baby girl some
nickels to buy candy, and now lie
wonders what to give the girl her
self to cap the climax before pop
ping the question. Back In old
Kentucky the saying is that you
had better give the cow a handful
of oats or fodder if you want to
catch the calf.

GOOD FEELING.
The'Register, of Eugene, cays:
''There U a very general feeling
of cheerfulness among the farmers.
The season has been favorable for
planting, and the prospect for a
heavy growth of grass and grain
was never better 1 at this time of
the year. Much attention has also
been paid to- the improvement of
horses, cattle, sheep and swine,

already observable in the improv

WILL NOT INSURE. ,
In Salem there resides a bus-
t a, i "
iness man wno, tnrougn supersu
tious folly or some other like cause,
will insure-neither his goods nor
houees. He thinks the plan is a
mistaken one, and that if his store
should chance to be consumed by
flames that it. would be as if it had
been intended. It does seem
strange that in this day and age of
the world there are those who do
not believe in taking advantage of
the complete protection afforded
them by reliable insurance com
panies, says the Capital Journal.
It is not unusual to find a. man
whose superstition will not permit
him insuring his life for the bene
fit of his family. But when such
ideas extend to the insurauce of
property it seems they have gone
too far.

There is a Mr. Langtry, and peo
ple have sometimes wondered why
he did not take care of his wife
instead of compelling her to earn
her own living on the stage, with
all the chances of faking cold from
insufficient clothinir, besides the
need of seeking protection outside
of the domestic circle. The mys-'
tery is unveiled at last. A wife
who is unable to get along on less
than $153.89 wort h of meat vege
tables and fish a week is a luxury
beyond the means of an ordinary
gentleman in society, with his own
modest bar and supper ' bill to
meet. Mrs. Langtry should con
trive to get herself enrolled as a
regiment of cavalry and advertise
for commissary proposals. ;
WHY THEY PREFER THE RIGHT.
Why do theater goers prefer
seats on the right of the house?
When yon are in the street on
which side of the walk do you
keep? On the right, don't you?
Of course you do. Aud you look
to the left, eh? If -you don't you
are different from every one else.
Well, you walk to the right and
you look to the left. Twenty-five
or thirty years of this sort of thing
naturally gets one accustomed to
it. Now, when you sit for two
hours and a half or. three hours in
one position, with your eyes to the
right, you will find that ic tires the
