Tho hatchet whb raised; the kneeling man wits Inwardly bidding farewell to the fair world about him. Sud denly, quick as a panther, there sprang through tho circle of In dians tho chief's daughter. She threw herself upon the captlvo'fc neck nud talked In her soft gutter als fast and vehemently. Her plea was successful; for tho tomahawk was lowered nud tho enptlvo freed. Thus, according to the oft told story, did I'ocnhoutiis savo tho life of Job n Smith, captain and gover nor of tho colony of Virginia. Horn In 1571). John Smith was the eldest son of n tenant' farmer lu Lincolnshire, England, and early showed u love for ndvouturo.

Fearing her mother's ven gennco against Smith, she scut him to her brother Timor, lu Tntary. Timor, suspecting tho truth, put Irons op him, clothed htm In hair cloth, and made him a slave lu his harvest Held. Ono day tho Englishman slow Ti mor, put on his clothes, hid the body, mounted his horse, and es caped, coming nt Inst to Germany, where tho Prince of Hungary mot Mm nud rewarded him for his feni against the Turks. Thcnco ho wan dered through Germany, Franco. Spain, Morocco, and back to Eng laud. lu 1(100, with three vessels and 1 05 men, he set out to establish i colony In Virginia, where Halolgh'i colonies had perished. Tho little licet was blown Into Chesapeake Hay, nud finally found the .linnet River. Jamestown was founded Mny 111, 1007. l'rlvatlons followed food wns scarco, Indians inonaced sickness appeared. Smith wiih ev erywhere, hunting, fighting with the Indians, bartering for food. Now colonists coming, plotted against hit life. In his hont asleep, they sol flro to his powder. Ho was terri bly burned, and jumping Into the water was nearly drowned. He was sent homo In 1001), and novel returned. When contemplating n .ilstory of tho sea, Smith died lu 1032 nud wns burled In St. Sepul chre's, Loudon. noSEnURQ. Or.. July 2 1. Fol lowing tho returning oC nn Indict ment, Aliic Mntson, Oscar Limber and Alfred Hotmail, appeared In the cir cuit court, nnd through their uttor noy, Clcorgo Jones, entered ideas of guilty. They woro fined ?50, and without funds to pay tho assessment will bo compelled to spend tho next 2r ilnys In tho county jail. Tho chargo was that of nssault nnd bat tery. Tho facts connected with tho trou- blo weio related to tho court by both Attorney (leorgo Jones nnd District lUtornoy Gcorgo M. Drown. During the progress of Attorney Jones ex planation he chanced to mention that tho men wore Intoxicated at tho time of the trouble. Tho liquor respon sible for tho condition of tho men, Attorney Jones Intimated was pur chased from Frunklln, tho prosecut ing witness. Judgo Hamilton grasped this state ment quickly and remarked: "Well, Franklin must be selling liquor." District Attorney Drown explained the trouble from the tlmo It started In tho resort or llert Roberts until li ended In tho establishment of Ed ward Frunklln. Ho simply told of how tho men came to Gardiner from n railroad construction cniup for n good time, and of how they later vis ited the several resorts and caused the trouble for which they were ar rested. Tho district attorney appear ed to think Mntson was inoro to blame than the others on account of the fact that ho could talk English nnd was conversant with tho ways of the country. Judgo Hamilton took the view that all three of tho men were equally guilty, however, nnd pronounced sen tences accordingly. LIIIRAItV NOTES. No. (I. .MVLKS STAXDISII.

RUST, Manager Howovor this may bo, tho bluff captain has attained wider fa mo through Longfellow's poem, "Tho Courtship of Myles Standlsh," than through anything ho did In tho way of exploration, nud ho will doubtless continue to bo known In this way.

Soon after lauding ut Plymouth, Standlsh bccniuo the mil itary captain of tho colony. Ho had cominnnd of tho little army, and kept a sharp watch on tho Indians. On ouo occasion when tho lndlnns had conspired to massacre the Eng lish their plan was discovered, and Standlsh with his men, killed thorn with tho very wenpons tnoy had brought to use against tho colonists. In 1025 ho went to Loudon to en deavor to secure tho Intervention of tho council for Now England In the nffalrs of tho coiony. This m:a slnu failed. Ho fought tho Indians on sovornl occasions, nnd by his expeditions to keop thorn frlondly or to punish thorn, becamo fnmlllnr with tho sur rounding country.
