After a -San Diego man got a divorce from bis wife the other day be went home and found her there. She asked him to sit down to dinner, after which she asked him how he liked the new ar rangement. "First rate," he replied, "but I can't understand it." "Oh, that's all right," she said; "we can live this 'way ' in contentment. The other way we quarrel. Now, then,. suppose yoa retain me as housekeeper? Twenty dollars per month and board is all I ask." This struck the ex-husband forc ibly, and the bargain was closed on the spot. The couple have not had a sign of trouble since, although they were in hot water for thirty-two years, fretting un der the marital yoke. They dare not quarrel much now, for fear one will leave the other in the larch. He must have his meals cooked and she must have a place to stay. Together they are happy. now, and the bargain promises to last to the end. Saturday Afternoon a Legal Holiday.

That as to all bills notes, drafts, checks and other negotiable paper, the time inter vening between Saturday at 12 o'clock noon and Sunday at 12 . o'clock mid night, be and the same is hereby de clared to be a legal holiday." Walla Walla Statesman.' EXCLUSION OF AMERICAN BEEF. Protest Against it to Be Made to European Government. Washington, June 8 The adminis tration has outlined an important policy to end, if possible, the controversies be tween this government and Great Britain, Germany and Belgium, regard' ing the exclnsion of American cattle and dressed beef. This policy contemplates the submis- sion of an earnest ioint protest by the diplomatic representatives of the United States at London, Berlin, Paris , and Brussels, aiming at the revocation of the discriminatory regulations1 which these nations have imposed on Amer ican cattle and beef. Before their de parture to their respective posts,' Am bassadors Hay, Porter and White re ceived instructions to confer with each other and with Bellamy Storr, the new minister to Brussels, for the purpose of taking action in the matter. Mr. Storr was at the state department yesterday receiving his final instructions before he sails on Wednesday next for his post in Belgium. Mr. Storr's in structions contemplate the recommence ment of negotiations with the Belgian government, with a view to securing a removal of restrictions now imposed up on American cattle and beef. In case the protests made by the fonr diplomats'named are not effective, re taliatory measures may be adopted by the United States in the cases of all the governments named. A Good Run and Fine Fish. A dispatch from Astoria Monday, gays : The last week has seen a radical change for the better in the run of salmon. Today the deliveries of fish have been remarkably large, even for this time of the year. The canneries are all running at fall capacity. Not only are the fish nnnsoaly numerous, bat the rnn as to quality is extraordi narily fine. As an example, a fisherman this morning, after a few hours' work, turned into one of the lower town can neries thirty cbiaook salmon, which averaged by actual weight more than fifty pan n da apiece. Accident at Baker. R. L. Lincoln, one of the La Grande running team, met with a Eerioss acci dent about 5 o'clock yeeterday afternoon. With his team he was practicing on the track, the team being tangled np at the start-off, and Mr. Lincoln was thrown to the ground, the cart passing over him. His left ear was nearly sev ered and his nose was broken. He was pot into good surgical bands, and it is hoped by all the firemen that the inju ries will be so carefully attended to that the La Grande team will not be handi capped in the races by the absence of one of its best men. Democrat. A LITTLE LOVE STORY. Beady Yf it of a Young Woman Loosen the Tongue of a Modest Peer. Here is a story of love and courtship, told by Walter Besant in the London Queen. There was a young lover who was a compound very rare of high rank and (Treat abilities, with sweet ness, great modesty and shyness. Most noble lords know their own value, and behave accordingly. This noble lord, however, was modest. He thought himself so far so very far below the worth -of tho young lady whom he loved that he was afraid to sneak Some women do not understand this modesty. Believe me, ladies, 'tis a sure and certain sign of a noble char acter, because only a lofty soul can conceive the existence of a goddess; we measure others, you see, by our selves. It is also a sure sign of love, because such a man can only love a woman whom he deeply respects. En courage this modesty, my daughters: above all, do not laugh at it. This young man, therefore, was afraid to speak, and the delay, which is at first, am tola, pleasing and exciting, be gan to grow monotonous. One day they were playing cards for money; after the fashion of their gen eration. The lady won; the loser naid. '.'It is," he raid, "half a crown. I wish, indeed, it were a crown." 'At least," replied the lady, "your lordship can give me a coronet." And behold a miracle! For his tongue was loosened, and his eyes glowed and Lis lips spake. They lived happy, one may euid, though it is an unusual ending to a story, ever after ward. WOMEN AS SHOEBLACKS. They Are Numerous In France and Some i y. Have Married Rich Customers. & A custom is rapidly gaining ground in France, and especially in 'Toulon and certain other towns, which, it may safely be prophesied, will not find. much imitation in this country. This is the employment of women as street shoeblacks. The French women shoeblacks are most coquettishly gotten up, and as to their caps and frills have somewhat the appearance of hospital nurses, and it is surprising that though their occu pation is a tolerably dirty one, they al ways seem clean and tidy; some of them are doing the polishing in gaunt let gloves. In the towns in which they are em ployed they certainly are a success pe cuniarily, especially where English and American visitors, who generally seem to treat the whole affair as a good joke, are numerous. It is said that one reason for the oc cupation being a popular one among women of a certain grade in life is that many of the fair polishers have mar ried opulent customers who have been impressed by their shining qualities.' r ABOUT THE "SLOPPER." HI Beaearene In the Garbage Recep tacles and HI Find. That man is a alopper," remarked a police officer to a Washington Star writer a few mornings since, "and he and his class give ua any amount of trouble. If he stole we could reach him by law, but as he only finds we can not easily reach him." In further ex planation he said: "A slopper is a man who searches through the garbage cans in the alleys in the rear of hotels, board ing houses and private houses. Some search for spoons, knives and fork that are thrown into the garbage recep tacles' by careless servants, for it is a fact that there are more silver spoons and knives and forks thrown away with the garbage than are stolen by servants, though the contrary ia gen erally believed. The slopper is gener ally an hour or so ahead of the garbage collector and he is often more regular and careful in his rounds than the gar bage man. 'By industry we thrive,' as the line in the copy-books used to contain, and by industry on. a good west end route, especially one which takes in a num ber of boarding houses or hotels, a slop per can find enough tableware to pay tho expenses of hie tour. Often he makes a rich find. Very frequently he has permission to 'slop' the can from the owners of the house themselves, for he tells them he is on the lookout for stray pieces of meat, etc., which he sells to those who have dogs to feed. Some stoppers are honest enough to return any silverware they may find for the dog-meat privilege, but it is a terrible temptation to many and one they can not or do not at times withstand. THE "WAGO OWANHAN." A Mysterious Light That Hangs la . West Virginia Canyon. An old-time West Virginia wonder is again causing quite a discussion among the reading and thinking peo ple of Wyoming and adjoining coun ties. The "wonder" referred to is the mysterious light which has been known since times almost prehistoric as the "Wag Owanhan." This phenomenal light, says the St. Louis Republic, appears to emanate irom a certain spot on the precipitous sides of the great Pat Wess canyon. It casts its ghostly sheen across the waters of the river, lighting the sur roundings not with a "sickly , pale, white light," but with a phosphorescent glow of sufficient brightness to make the reading of a newspaper or a book possible on the darkest night. Accord ing to some investigators of the "Wago Owanhan" the light does not emanate from any spot on the canyon's side, but hangs out over the river, like a luminous cloud or fog. This appears to have been the case at the time when Prof. Tohlure and Mr. I. E. Christian the latter of Oceana, W. Va. visited the spot. On the 15th and 16th of last February an expedition, headed by Mr. Christian, again visited the "Wago Owanhan." Snow was falling rapidly at the time, and Mr. Christian says that every flake, when it reached a height of about 200 feet above the water, "would blare out with dazzling brightness" and remain luminous until it reached the surface. A scientific investigation! of the phe nomenon will be made. SETTLED IN NOVA SCOTIA. Colonial Americans Who Early Made Their Homes In Canada. Many loyalists, particularly from New England, had fled to Nova Scotia ; riUre mc cio; ui iue war, una se , on the spot where the city of St. John now stands. This gave one objective point, at any rate, - says MacmiUan's Magazine, to the much larger band of exiles who at the peace were forced to seek new homes at short notice; and in a single year the new settlements grew to some 13,000 souls. Men of all classes flocked there, officers and sol diers, clergymen and lawyers, farmers, mechanics and merchants. They were naturally much above the average of ordinary emigrants, both in character, education and intelligence; but all, or nearly all, were equally destitute and forced to begin the battle of life afresh, A year later New Brunswick was sep arated from Nova Scotia, endowed with a council and home assembly, and the capital moved to the present site at Fredencton. The first council included many well- known New England names, such as Putnam, Winslow, Allen and Willard. It included, also, a late judge of the supreme court of New York, another distinguished lawyer of that colony, and several officers of the loyal regi ments. Both the New York and the Virginia branch of the Robinsons, one of the wealthiest and most influential families in colonial America, were here represented, and to this day are conspic uous in upper Canada.

Hundred Years. My thoughts, when I was at the ruins of Silchester recently, were that hun dreds- of antiquarians all over the coun try would have given gold to anyone who should have told them of the great "find" that was there and then to be safely brought to hand, says a letter in London Truth. A friend and myself strolled over from Aldermaston to view the ruins and as many of the "finds." as were still to be seen. Mr. Davis, F. S. A., at present superintending 'the opera tions, -explained to us how, when dig ging out an old well, he made the lucky discovery of a tunnel which conducted him to an ancient gate, the existence of which had not been before suspected A windlass had been fitted up over well 18 feet deep, and men were digging out pailfuls of earth which were being diligently hauled up. For two weeks the work at this point had been going on, and within the last week it had been discovered that this was an old Roman tub-well. , The wood seemed somewhat rotten, as might be expected after 1,600 years, eo that the raising of the tub caused the greatest anxiety. The tub had been ingeniously fitted by Mr, Davis with two wooden shelves running all round it one at the top and the other , at the bottom, both of which served to protect it from any strain dur ing the preparation for hoisting it, and also relieved the tub of its own weight during the process of hoisting. After one unsuccessful attempt to bring it up, during which a small portion of it was knocked off, it was triumphantly raised to light in a comparatively perfect state of preservation. We expect that x the tub will shortly be on view at the Reading museum, where ' there is al ready a beautiful collection of Silches ter relics. RED TURTLES. They Live and Breed In a Spring; Whose Temperature I 828 Degrees. v lhat portion of southern, or lower California called Hell's Half-Acre ap pears to be situated directly over substratum of fire, which causes the mud and water to boil as if in a caldron. aays the L Louis Republic. At one place on the Half-Acre there are over 100 boiling springs and hot mud geysers on a plat of ground that is not of great er extent than a common city square. The chief spring in this queer aggre gation of boiling end spouting jets of mud and water is called the fountain of the Boiled- Turtles on account of its curious habit of occasionally ejecting numbers of small red turtles. The temperature of this spring is 226 de grees, 14 degrees hightr than the tem perature required to boil water un der ordinary atmospheric pressure Notwithstanding the fact that the tem perature is sufficient to boil meat per fectly within a few minutes, the small red turtles spoken of live and .breed there just as the ordinary variety does in waters of common lakes, rivers add other streams. The spring is called the fountain of Boiled Turtles because the queer, hard-shelled creatures of being cooked perfectly done. SURE CURE FOR SHIPWRECK. What a Sunday School Pupil Would Do to Calm the Ocean. A certain young woman on the North aide teaches a class in a mission Sunday school. She had a difficult task, says, the Chicago Times-Herald, imparting i scraps of religious instruction to her young charges and often amusing an Rwpra are urJCOr,seiouslv returned to questions which she asks. On one oc casion she asked her pupils: "What do the higk priests do?" And received the reply: "They burned insects before the peo ple," by which the youngster, of course, meant incense. But one of the funniest experiences, which well shows the queer ideas which the children receive in their lessons, was given when, after a discussion of shipwreck which followed a lesson three or four weeks previously on the well-known story of Jonah and the whale, she happened to ask: "Suppose a big storm arose at sea and it looked as though you were going to be drowned, what would you do? "I would throw a man overboard for a whale to swallow," was the reply. An Indian's Tlcket-of-Leave.

He is a good, law-abiding man, and very friendly to ward whites. If any of his crowd are boisterous or violate any law, if report ed to me, I will have the matter recti fied.

The Deserted Wife Won the Race by Fonr Honrs. A race across 2,000 miles of water for a wife was recently ended at Ellis Island. The race was between Mrs. Franz- Molineaux, a deserted wife, and a young girl. Bertha Neibling, the hus band's sweetheart. The wife won the race by four hours and, incidentally, the erring husband. , Molincaux had been wealthy in Ber lin. He had married the daughter of a rich grain merchant. When he failed in business he quarreled with his wife, for she made some remark about his poverty which angered him. He left her, saying that he would go to Amer ica and begin life over again. They were proud and she permitted him.to go alone, although in her heart she loved him. . The man came over here and by hard work established himself and was in re ceipt of a good salary. He thought sometimes of the woman over in Berlin. She was living with her wealthy father, who was very fond of her. In a spirit of pique the husband sent across the sea for another woman to share the home he had made here at 1860 Lexington avenue. Mrs. Molineaux heard of the other woman and embarked in all haste on the steamer Lahn. bound for New York. The other one, Bertha Neibling, was a steerage passenger on the Venetia from Hamburg. The Venetia sailed first, yet the fast steamer Lahn beat her into port by four hours, with Mrs. Molineaux in the first cabin. She had little difficulty in interesting the authorities in her case. Detective Peter Groden found her husband and in formed him that a woman was at Eilis Island waiting to see him. Molineaux was taken there and the commissioner of immigration asked some very search ing questions. Then he dismissed him to another room and talked to Mrs. Mol ineaux. Neither husband nor wife knew of the presence of the other on the island. Thev were brought .into the same room. The wife at the sight of her hus band threw her arms around his neck and fainted. She recovered opportunely and told him how cruelly she had misunuiT stood him and that she would willingly share povertv and a crust of bread with him. No man could resist talk like that. Molineaux kissed her on the forehead and vowed he, would be true to her to the end of time. So they went to I860 Lexington avenue together, where they will dwell. The other woman? The story is prac- ticallv finished as far as she is con cerned. The. immigration authorities came to the conclusion that as she had no friends here now and was likely to be come a public charge the best thing they could do would be to send her back to Germany. Chicago Record. TOO LATE. The Fortune Which Came at Laet to Wasted Life. . Nothing is more pathetic in this world than the fate which brings the fulfill ment of ardent hopes only "when, the grasshopper has becore a burden and desire hath failed." Such a commervtary on the vanity of human anticipations occurred not long ago to one of the toilers of Babylon, who, longing be yond everything for the good things 6f this world, had, like Tantalus, reached out ever in vain for the cakes and ale of existence. They always seemed just beyond hds girasp, until finally they were within touch, when they dropped from the nerveless, tired fingers that were too weak to hold them. Born to expectations which were never realized, and rendered discontent ed thereby with her contrasted sur roundings, Miss A -'s life was one long. unskillful desire. Instead of making the best of the present, she spent her time continually in making plans for the future. Everything was sacrificed to the elusive hope of the possible riches which would, she imagined, once ob tained, make life so delightful and de sirable. She might have been a happy wife and mother and a useful woman in her generation; if it had not been for the mirage of wealth, ever before her longing eyes a dream which made her commonplace surroundings insup portable. So the years, wore on; youth and beauty took flight, friends grew fewer and fewer, until in the midst of a joy less and purposeless middle age Miss A fell ill with a long, incurable ill- Then, and then only, when the world, as far as she was concerned, had narrowed itself down. to the con fines of a small room, and even that grew dimmer and more unreal day by day, came the consummation, of ber hopes. An aged relative died and left her the fortune for which she had so longed. Oh, take them away! she cried. with- exceeding bitterness, .when they brought her the papers that represent ed so much and yet so little for truly man walketh in a vain shadow and disquieteth himself in vain; he heapeth up riches and cannot tell who shall gather them." N. Y. Tribune. Larg;e and Small Soldlers- The emperor of Germany has jus! placed upon the wall of his study a large photograph of which he is very proud. It is a portrait, half life size, of the biggest and the smallest ' soldier of the ' Prussian army standing side by side. The former is Private Pritzchan, of the first regiment of the Prussian guard. Ho stands C feet 7J inches in his boots, and when he presented him seljt as Dusseldorf for examination a special apparatus had to be provided with which to take his waist measure. His breadth is in proper proportion to his height The smallest soldier is the hereditary prince. The picture is a unique one, showing a veritable giant, quite equal to any that figure in Grimm's Tales," or other' books of fables, and by his side a soldierly Lilli putian. . . . i LIFE IN GREAT CITIES It Is Less Enervating Than That In . - Isolated Communities. And as to the tendency of the growth of great cities to enerva te nations, there is no proof of it at all, unless we identi fy the life of great cities with the pas Bion for idleness and pleasure and self indulgence which sometimes, but by no means universally, accompanies their growth, says the London Spec tator. When you get a large proletari at, living, as that of ancient Rome and possibly of Nineveh and Babylon, did, on the alms of the rich "d powerful, then no doubt you have the conditions of a thoroughly nnnatual and unhealthy life, and no one can wonder at the rapid decoy of such cities and of the nations which gloried in them. But where the honest working class far out number the proletariat, where the middle classes of distributors and man ufacturers and professional mon are la borious and energetic, and even the class that lives on its accumulated wealth contains a considerable sprick- ' ling of serious and disinterested work ers, we do not believe that there is the smallest evidence of any greater danger in the life of the agricultural village or the pastoral tribe. Indeed, we should! regard Olive Schrciner's picture of the life of the modern Boers as indicating a. condition of things more prolific of morbid elements, with its almost com plete absence of any stirring or active intelligence, than any kind of modern; life that is honestly laborious at all. The Boer life is too sleepy, too desti tute of stirring thought or effort, to be altogether natural. It needs at least the old element of danger and neces sary vigilance to render it even bracing. A GREAT DINNER. Because Enjoyed 'by a Great Quartette- They Are Still Alive. The greatest dinner that I ever sat Jown to, says Watterson in the Courier lournal, consisted of a leg of mutton, dressed with mustard, a bit of hot irheat bread; and some fresh butter, with half a jug of fine whisky to wash it down. It was in front of New Hope :hurch in the Bumnier of '64. Soma ane had sent Eustis b. leg of mutton. Some cne had sent Yeatman a large pill box of butter. Bragg, Gen. Polk's ;ook, had some flour. Eustis and Yeat man invited Gov. Harris and myself, rhe governor happened to have a key which fitted Gen. Polk's medicine case, ill of us united in making the robbery f a vial of Irish whisky, the general himself being absent, and that was the Sinner! Glorious dinner! Please God, the quartette still survive to tell the tale, which they do when ever ihey meet and can get an audi ence. Eustis is in Paris, ambassador: the same cool, self-possessed man in di plomacy he used to be under fire; able, brave and lazy. Harris touching the eighties is the dashing, brilliant, im petuous boy he was 32 years ago and, silver or gold, or neither, I look to ward him as I write! Yeatman, obtru sive only in his courage on the battle field, lives the life of cultivated leisure and unambitious rusticity which de lighted him most when he was both younger and richer than he is, though be still has his ancestral acres. That was a dinner. When my little girl was one month old, she had a scab form on lier face. It kept spread ing until she was completely covered from head to foot. Then she had boils. She had forty on her head at one time, and more on her body. When six months old she did not weigh seven pounds, a ound and a half less than at birth. Then her skin started to dry up and fot so bad shecould not shut her eyes to sleep, ut lay with them half open. About thia time, I started luting Ccticuba Remedies, and in one month the tea completely cured. The doctor and drug bills were over oe hun dred dollar, the cmcritA bill was cot more than flee dollar.
