This emi- I nent scientist has passed his three score years and ten mile post; and, at. an age when most men retire .from life's ac tivities, he remains in the-ranks -of earnest truth seekers and investigators, He is one of the few on whom age seems not to stamp .the .marks of decay; to whom advancing years .bring not dim ness of mental vision ; who are virile and vigorous 4a proportion to the length of life. Professor Condon is a student .of nature, not a pedant who lives alone among books and, feeds vonly on the mental fruit cultivated by others. He has the ' ability to read "sermons in stones" see "book's in running brooks,' and find "good in. everything." As a geologist of eminence, a bit of rock tells to him a story of mighty forces once exerted ; a stratum in the earth's for mation , speaks eloquently of the ages during which our globe was being formed ; a glimpse of Nature's product is a sentence from a language that the Almighty speaks to the one who goes - "near to Nature's heart." One who studies Nature cannot grow old. Her voices srjeak enconrasinirlv i its hidden secrets entice ever onward further discovery of her true SDirit: familiarity with her works purifies and strengthens. Nature known and understood renews the vonth and nnliftH the mind of men. These are not effusive words of empty compliment, They-'are sincere tributes to one who deserves them. Professor Condon is honored 'by the people of Oregon, whom he'Eas long served as a teacher of the wonderful science of geology ; and, where rer genuine scholar ship !b known, the name, of . Thomas Condon goes coupled.:, with merit and true scientific research. East Ore- MRS. BBECaiB DEAD.' Sled at Her old Homern . Stamford, Connection!. .. ' Stamford, Conn., March 8.

They were the first to make brooms by machinery ; the first to put up seeds in litttle packages; the first to manufacture cut nails. ; . Now they are out with a method of cor ing dyspepsia by resting the stomach. Their remedy is known as. the Shaker Digestive Cordial. It supplies food in an artificially digested form and at the same time - aids the digestion of other foods in the stomach. In other words, by the use of the Shaker Digestive Cor dial, a dyspeptic- virtually- gets, along without the use of his stomach . until jt is restored to its . natural strength and vigor.

The Flood In Illinois. . Cablisle, 111., March 8. The river is still rising. The water is now at i stage within one foot of the unprece dented flood of 1892. The suspension bridge across the river at this point is threatened with distrnction. An ad ditional rise of two feet will sweep away the bridge, and will entail a loss of $25, 000. Thousands of logs and rafts are lost in the swift current. One, hun dred thousand bushels of corn , which is stored in cribs in the overflowed district will be a total loss. ' .

( One of the Most Snjoyable Affair Ever Been In Tne Dalles. The minstrel show last night was, as anticipated, the affair of the season When 8 o'clock came without a seat be ing occupied, it was evident that the af fair, as far as the audience was Con cerned, at least, was to be "swell." And swell it was, for the curtain did not go up until a quarter to 9, and the reason therefor was the crowd that began to arrive at 8:15 and that ..kept, streaming in nntil the time mentioned.' The hall was packed, and in all our experience we never saw so many beautiful women at once with their hats off. It may be that the absence of the hats improved their looks, but at any rate the fact that they were off was thoroughly appre ciated. We feel that it is unnecessary to make , any extended comment or criticism, since everybody was there to see, yet a brief mention cannot be -forborne. ' 1 .Hartnett: and Hampshire were the curtain raisers, sending it up in an Irish character sketch that was very funny, and which was wound up with the song,'Little Johnny Dugan." : An encore brought them back, and it was only .the knowledge of other good things yet in store that prevented tbeoa being recalled the third time. They were followed by Mr. Morse, in his skirt dance, ! which he gave in a splendid manner, getting a beartv recall. . -. . ..He was followed by Arthur Clarke and Will Crossen in a German character sketch that was a mirth provoker from start to finish. Then Nick Sinnott as "Cissy Side ways eent everybody wild. The make up was great, Nicks six feet of muscular development appearing perfectly im mense in the cute dresses and obsolete pantalets. His stabs at the Thursday doings at the club, were evidently un derstood and appreciated by the mem bers thereof, and when he told about kicking at the punch bag, and that the next day when it rained the roof leaked, there was a storm of applause. Harry Lonsdale's speech' on money was well received and the local hits' were heartily applauded. The chicken brigade, consisting of Clarke, Clarke, Hampshire and Hart nett, was, in our opinion, one of the best things of the evening. Professor Love sang a French dialect song, that was very good, and in response to an encore danced the ser pentine, completing the vaudeville por tion bf the program. After a brief intermission, the curtain went up to show a burlesque prizefight between Corbett and Fitzaimmons, the latter being, represented by Prof. Love and the former by Willie McNeil, who, after three hotly contested rounds, was declared the champion ot the world. - -.. When the ' curtain went up on the Second half, the full company of twenty six were on the stage, with Nick Sinnott as interlocutor. The songs and choruses in this part were fine, and the fact that eyerv number received an encore that would not be stood off, prolonged the program until 20 minutes to 12. - The show was great -from start to finish, every number receiving deserved applause, and it is safe to say that when ever The Dalles boys give another en tertainment, they will have, a crowded bouse. CATCHING A TARTAR. . The Brave and Effective Kesistance of an '' - Intended Victim. '.'- Highway robberies, even under mod ern name of Vhold-ups," which alters nothing of their character, have become decidedly rare in the far northwest; and they are likely to become still rarer if all intended victims make as brave and effective' resistance as did a grcer of Eainier, Washington, recently. This grocer, whosee name is Hubert, started from Eainier with his wagon one" night to goto Tacoma to buy goods. With him was a' 13-year-old boy. He carried $106 to pay for his purchases. .While he was about two. miles, irom Boy and on a lonely road two highway men stepped out, confronted the grocer, pushed a pistol' into 'his face, and com manded him to dismount and hand over his money. -v : . ; " - Hubert had no notion of givjng up.the money, but he did not waste any time in thinking up a plan for beating the rob bers. . He begao to get d.owTi from the wagon as if to comply, and' as he did so he struck the rascal who held the pistol terrible blow which felled him to the ground. ""'Hubert then came down with one heavy, foot upon the wrist of the hand which held the revolver. ... While the robber was in this position, the grocer snatched the weapon away from him .and pointed it at the other rascal. It turned out" that the second robber had ' np "pistoK . - Hubert com manded him to put up his hands, which he did. ' . ' - . , Meantime the first man was insensi ble from the . terr jble blow which Hu bert had dealt him. Hubert made the second hold up his hands for ten min utes, until the first had recovered his senses. Then he. commanded the first to get up, and told them both to march. which they did. ' - - - Thus the 'grocer took them both into the town of Boy, the boy driving close behind with the horses-and wagon. At Boy the thwarted highwaymen were turned, over to a constable and locked np, and the grocer went on his way to Tacoma.

". MUSIC IN NERVOUS DISORDERS. Alleged Core of a Child Due to Chopin's bomber Waltzes. The value of music in the treatment of certain forms of nervous diseases has before now been called attention to by physicians. One advantage perhaps of this therapeutical agency is that m the event of its doing no good it is not like ly to do harm. In a recent number of the Gazette Medicale attention was drawn -to the remarkable result attend ing tne administration, oi music to a little girl of three, who was afflicted with serious nervous disorders, result ing in epilepsy and paroxysms of fear. which kept her awake all night. . The' ordinary remedies, including bromide. of potassium, were tried without any effect, and at last the physician recomr mended the mother to play some soft, rather melancholy music to her daugh ter. bJore putting her to bed. Chopin was recommended, especially the waltzes in the minor key. The remedy worked like a charm, for it is -said that from the night the child went to bed under the influence- Of music she lost all her nervous symptoms and slept without waking- untH the morning. In order to .prove that this was not the re sult of mere chance, the music was omitted on one evening, and the child passed a night of misery, not so intense as before the adoption of the treatment. but still very marked. . ' .-' NOT DUE TO HER SERIOUS TALK. Mother Permitted a Spanking; to Exert Its Persuasive Powers. - - I "Did you notice," asked the jrirl with the saintly expression of the. girl with the laughing- eyes, "how beautifully Tommy Jackson behaved in church to day?" - . : The girl with the laughing eyes nodded silently, and the girl with the saintly expression went on dreamily: . "I think that I must have managed to touch his stony litth? heart at last," she. said, thankfully, "but it has been a hard struggle. I talked to him serious ly on Saturday when I was calling on my Sunday school pupils, and his moth er seemed much interested, bhe said she had punished him severely only the Sunday before last, and how shame fully he behaved last week. While yes terday ' "She punished him, too,'' interrupted the girl with the laughing: eyes, mer rily, "only she reversed her usual order of proceedings. Generally she spanks him after she comes home from church, and he forgets all about it before the next Sunday, comes around. But yes terday she had a brilliant idea and to day she spanked him before Betting out." "O," said the girl, with the saintly face, and there really didn't seem any thing else to say. - ONE NEW-YEAR'S. Reception of a - President That Wasn't .Held in the White House. "There was one New Year's reception held by the president in tloe city," said a local historian, "which was not held in the white house. Though the event is seldom referred to, it is a fact, all the same. The reception I speak of, though the- function then generally went by the name of .levee, was given by. Presi dent Madison cn New Year's day, 1S15, in the Octagon, at the corner of Eight eenth, street and New lork avenue. The British jn 1814 having burned the white house.

' Q.R EASING THE ELEPHANTS. ' The Park Rhinoceros, Too, Coated Twice . .. Tear with Keatsfoet Oil. , Twice a year the. elephants and the rhinoceros in the Central park menag erie get a coating: of neatsf oot oil, which is thoroughly rubbed in with the palm of the hand. The oiliogand the manip ulation oeanse: the skin, remove the dead skin, and open the -pores, freshen the animals up,, and. improve , their health, and they seem to like the proc ess. : The oiling is done only in the spring and summer; if done in the win ter the animals would be likely to take cold from it. ' "The rhinocero! at the park is'in good condition and lively, and rather frisky for so big a brute. Sometimes it steps about with a step that is very much like a dancing step, and likely to surprise one who sees it for the first time and has Deen accustomed to regard tne rhinoc eros as an animal always slow and lum bering in its movements. - When the rhinoceros cage is cleaned out, which Is .done, daily, the keeper first attracts the great creature to one side with a tempting mess .of food. Then' he slips a noose cf rope over the animal s horn arid settles it down around the neck and makes, the other end fast around a bar or two of the elephant's cage ad joining. ' This is done to keep the rhi noceros from pitching- into the keeper if-it Fhonld take a notice. r , The same precaution is taken when the rhinoceros is oiled. The elephants, however, kneel at the word of com mand. It is not necessary to plant a ladder against them m order to feach the upper part of their sides in rubbing in tne on. , TAUGHT HER A LESSON. Probably' Found a New Place for She Biding-the Key. - -The other day a very estimable lady came to town to do a kttle shopping, says the Atlanta- Constitution, i Of course the key was put under the door mat so that her son, whom she expected to return before her, could get in. - In her absence a tramp, who had been hanging around the' place a number of days and had caught on, boldly went into the house, got some of the choicest viands out of the pantry, put them on" the table and pit.ch.ed' n. He also found a bottle of wine that revived his spirits. He did not expect anyone there for a number of hours and so he took it easy. Iu the meantime the lady of the house having- finished her shopping returned home and, seeing- the front door un locked, expected to find her son inside. Imagine her horror when she opened the dining-room door and saw sitting at her table the rustiest-looking tramp that ever vied with his companions in accumulating dirt on his epidermis. The lady' was dumfounded. In the si lence that followed the tramp coolly re marked r f "Madam, I . shall - become scarce, . now, .ez I've eaten enuff.

"Yes; I think you are." ... "And blind, too; isn't that so?" "Yes, you are both poor and blind." . "Then hand over the money, please," demanded the man, "because under the law I come under both conditions." : . But the clerk .shook his h.ead in the negative. : "You know well enough why yoh can't get the money," he said, "the re port against you reads that you are not respectable." "Now I -kiidw what you are driving at," sighed the blind man, "but what has that to do with it?" .: "Everything," was the reply. - "A man who elopes -with another blind man's wife is not fit to have a pension." : And that settled it. . .. . f.- Defenses of Gibraltar. -Since the invention of long-range rifle guns the fortress of Gibraltar, in every sense of the word, controls the entrance to' the Mediterranean, for at the nar rowest part of the strait there are only 18 miles between Europe and Africa, and the gTins of the fortress can deliver ehotjS and 6ells" if necessary on the African, shore. -The military authori ties' of Gibraltar, however, do not de pend -upon the .guns of . the. fortifica tions for blocking the Mediterranean, 'or atl Gibraltar .there is ..always sta- tioned a fleet of powerful ships which can be called into service to assist in defending the strait against the naval forces of a foreign power.
