THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 26, 1898.
"MOTTO". HANGINGS.
Ob of the Latest Fanciea Amoig
Serdle Worker tn m. Pret- -
tj Ornament. . sf-
' The "motto" hanging curtain or por
tiere is the latest fancy among the
" guild of needle workers.- To mate it
the -woman who knows her business
procures a number of lengths Of two-
. inch ribbon in her favorite colors, or
varying shades thereof, and upon these
ribbons she induces her friends to in-
- scribe their autographs, together with
" the date of inditing, the motto or
watchword which is supposed to rule
and dominate their life and character,
and any other fragments of similar
nature -liked.
The lettering is .done in, sepia, oil
" colors, colored or even black ink, ac-
' -cording to taste. Sepia looks cspecial
" IT well upon yellow, golden brown or
- certain shades of green; blacK inK is
-S striking upon scarlet or blue; purple
- writing fluid is lovely upon lavender
' or other pansy, tones. If the maker
of the portiere is doubtful concerning
the ability of her friends to do the let
' tering artistically she merely asks
them to writa upon slips of white pa
'. per, and herself copies the legends
' thus obtained upon the ribbons. In
rare cases tic names are embroidered
instead of written.
y " When ready,;for making up the-rib-.
lions varying from six to ten feet in
length are attached to and sus
pended from a wider ribbon as long
as the. portiere is to be wide, and upon
.'" whiuh is emblazoned the name, motto
- and other particulars concerning the
fair owner. Fringed, scalloped " or
pointed ends of similar or ie same
ribbon, a line of painting or em
broide, may serve to conceal , the
-method ofjoining. Once attached the
loose ends of ribbon are arrange'd ac
cording to the location of the motto.
If this is near the top or bottom of te
ribbon the portiere is connected mid
way; if passing along most of the
length the wavirjribbons are allowed
to hang free. "Rainbow" portieres of
this order are much liked.
A glorious bit of color and a delight
ful souvenir hanging is the result, how-
- ever they are fastened. "Purple and
" gold and the glory therefor" are as
zothing compared to the color scheme
. and beauty of a really well made and
artistically arranged "motto por
tiere." Chicago Times-Herald.
A Wise Mother.
T fear, George is untrue to me!" she
moaned as her tortured head fell upon
her mother's waiting bosom. "In his
dreams last night he said: "I have two
. little queens!' Oh, if I just knew who
'the other one is I'd scratch her eyes
. out!" But her dear mother had been
married longer and was wiser than
she, and quickly sent the sunshine of a
smile scintillating' through her tears
. with the explanation that some bold,
bad man must have lured her darling
George into a little game of draw, and
given it to him in the wishbone in such
a cruel manner that he was worrying
about it even in his sleep. Denver

Nevada CI tr Dlntrict Equaled Some. of
: the Klondike Resrion Records. -..The-
city papers are publishing ac
counts of the. fabulous richcess of the
gravel mines in the Klondike section of
Alaska, and while in some instances- the
stories appear to be rather highly col
ored they are not ahead of what hap
pened in different parts of California in
early days. On September 13, 1850,
says -the Nevada City Transcript, A.
Isoard, who is still a resident of our
city, obtained' from one panful of gravel
$912 worth of gold dust and small nug
gets. Tho gravel was taken from dig
gings directly back of Mrs. - C. Beck
man's residence on the; upper East
Broad street,' From, a piece of ground
30 feet square in the same claim Mr.
Isoard and partners took out $164,000.
The old Nebraska, the Manzanita and.
the Hirschman diggings were wonder
fully rich in the early times, as were
many other smaller claims. . To obtain
$400 or $500 from a .single pan of dirt
was a common occurrence. Many re
markably rich pockets were found on
Bed Hill years ago. In one instance two
prospectors found beneath a bowlder
$1,400 worth of solid gold. - It was in
one irregular mass, in shape more like
a platter than anything else, the golden
Jumpe. being joined together with fine
wires of gold.
All of these rich strikes were made
near the city, none of them two miles
away. Notwithstanding the - great
quantity of gold that has been taken
out in this vioinity since 1849 there are
yet untold richest buried here in the
gravel and quartz mines for which Ne
vada City district is noted. '
1 WHISKY SAVED HIS LIFE.
Mlaslaalppl Steamboat Man Preferred
- Hia Anatomy Intact.'
Charles Gross is a white-headed' ne
gro porter on- the steamboat St. Paul,
eey a the St. Louis Republic.
Charlie has some very pronounced
opinions, which amount to convictions.
One of these is that, while whisky costs
some men their lives, it saved his. ,.
Seven years ago Charlie was1 porter
on the Mascot, a packet Uoafc running
oetween St. Louis and Cape Girardeau,
He bad -been imbibing a prodigious
amount of fire water when a friend of
his came into the saloon on the levee
where 'he was enjoying himself and
said: "You mus' hur' up, Charlie. Yoh.
boat's- ringin her bell."
"What f she isT said Charlie. "I'll
go on the nex' trip," and he returned to
"the can." sw. " -
The Mascot went on hex way with
out Charlie, and when she was opposite
Neligh's Landing she blew up, killing
most of her crew. So Gross is firm in
the belief that an all-ordering Provi
dence gave him that remarkable ca
pacity for fiery fluid in order to save
him from the iate of the sober mem
bers of thecrew.
- He has sworn off since at the emphatic
request of Capt. Burke, but what hehas
lost in the way of accomplishments in
the line of "throwing' beer into hisself
has been the cause, of anxiety on his
part. He is superstitious about the
"cup that inebriates" and fears' that
some day ha will be punished, as un
gnartef ul friends are likely to be, by the
blowing up of the St. Paul and) all hex
sober crew. - " -

Oriental Story-Tellera Wno Kalled to
-. Fleaae Their Klna- Kept Bia "
Headsman In Practice. - .-
. There was once an oriental - king
whose chief delight and recreation
from the cares and burdens of his roy
al condition was to listen to- stories.
Readintr was It no means a universal
npr-nmnlishmeiit in the kingdom of
Kaziwar, and its sovereign cared noth
ing for parchment records or pictorial
representations of the ancient history
of his own people or those of any other
country. It was the delight of his leis
ure hours to stretch himself on a divan
in the beautiful courtyard of his pal
ace, and, amid the plashing of its foun
tains and the" odor of its flowers, to
have the cleverest and most imagina
tive and traveled of his subjects tell
him tales of every kind, while his cour
tiers, grouped about him," shared his
pleasure.-aud were punished with noth
ing less than deatn n tney yawneu
three times in -.succession, . or were
guilty of the " least interruption!
The king's passionate fondness for this
form of diversion, end the great . re-
wards that he heaped upon the men
who had the good fortune to keep him
amused, caturally resulted in his court
beebminsr the rendezvous of all the
most brilliant talkers of that kind in
that part oi the world. "
Even th,e smallest piece of paper in
the way of a memorandum was strict
ly f 04-bidden them, though,' and they
took rank according to the versatility
of their minds, and the fluency with
which they were able to disguise the.
fact that they were borrowing all they
knew from some more ancient source,
or were abundantly able to invent situ
ations and plots as diverting and char
acters that interested intensely their
imperial and imperious lord, who.
bored by chronicles, had a thousand
pairs of ears and as many pairs of eyes
as a ny for all the tragedies and come
dies and adventures that could be re
counted with the human voice and
presence to give them color and life.
Natives and strangers vied with one
another for years in repeating or in
venting all the tales that they could
imagine or recall for the benefit of
their swarthy lord, who, stretched on
his divans, fixed on them his piercing
eye, and bade them do their best.
It was very nervous work for . the
poor souls, though; for the king's exe
cutioner, armed with the longest and
sharpest of simitars, stood ever by
their sides, and if the king heard them
repeat themselves or one another, if
they turned pale under the strain, or
f orgot-what they had to say, as like as
not he would frown fiercely, and clap
his hands when off would go a head!
Whereas, if he were really entertained,
he' would listen greedily to every de
tail, and, the story done, command
pipes and wine and fruits to be brought
for the refreshment -of the speaker,
clothe him in robes of scarlet, present
him with a fortune in the shape of
single ring, and add to it twenty purses
of gold or a dozen vineyards, accord
ing to the measure of his satisfaction.

ABOUT CENTENARIANS.
Some Queer Stories Related of
tremely Old People In Ena
. land Long Ago.
Ex-
Kot all of the : centenarians' were
paragons of all the virtues. Thomas
Whittington, for example, who lived
to be 104, was a habitual drunkard,
drinking only London gin, of which he
consumed from,, a pint to a pint and
a half daily. Philip Laroquc went to
bed drunk at least two nights in the
week until he was 100. At 92 he cut
four, new teeth. John de la Somet,
130 years old, .' was . an inveterate
smoker. - Several famous old people
were extremely addicted to matri
mony. - Owen Duffy, who lived to be
122, married his third wife at 116, "by
whom he had a son and a daughter."
Francis Hongo, a Venetian, was five
times married, and was the father of
49 children. At the age of 100 his
white hair fell out and a new crop
of the original color came in. .At the
age of 113 he. had two new teeth.
Margaret Krasiowna, a Pole, married
her third husband at. 94. "She bore
to him two sons and a daughter, as
proved by the parish register." Mar
garet McDowal, 100 years old, married
and survived 13 husbands. - " . - --
Among the? recorded' cehtenarians
are- two dwarfs Mary . Jones, 100
yenrs, who was two feet eight inches
in height .and terribly deformed and
Elspeth Watson,.. 115 years old, who
was two feet nine inches in height.
Among the most agile were Mrs. Bar
rett, who, at the age of 116, climbed
a ladder to repair the roof of her cot--tage,
and Elizabeth Alexander, -who
was particular about her dress at 108,
and was used to a daily walk of. two
miles.: Several had peculiar habits.
Mrs. Lcwson,. 117 years old, never
washed her face for fear of taking
cold, but greased- it with hog's lard.
John Hussev, -116 years, drank only
balm tea as a beverage. John Wilson,,
the same age, supped always off roast
ed turnips. . Judith Banister, 100, lived
entirely on biscuit, bread and apples
during the last 60 years of her life.
Old Lord Scarsdale and Lord Comber
mere, both of whom lived to a ripe
age, thought the wearing of a tight
ibelt habitually about thewaist had
! much to do with their excellent health.
Macklin, the centenarian actor, aban
doned regular hours of eating in the
last 67. years of his life, taking food
when he was hungry." Two interesting
married. couples are reported. Mr.
and Mrs. Cotterell, aged respectively
.120. and "115 -years, were married 98
years and "never had a quarrel." They
died within a fewTiours of each other.
John Rovin, a Hungarian, and his wife,
aged 172 and 164 years, lived together
148 years. At the. time of thehus
band's death the youngest son was 116
year3 old. North American Review. - "
