The prominent part lliev took in the early wars in the southern part of this state, show that these noble red men were a foe not to be held in contempt by the "Boston men." But this once numerous tribe has faded away before the advancement of civil ization until there are only two sur vivors left.

There ia an item afloat to the effect that in a neighbor ing town ia a lodge of the farmers' al liance, which meeta Monday nights, There ia only one lodge room In the town, and Tuesday nights it ia occu pied by the Knights of Pythias. The president of one of the sub-alliances came to town Tuesday, and seeing light in the lodge room, concluded he Would go over there. Ho gave the proper knock at the outer door. The wicket was raised, and sn ear placed to hear the pass word. "I plow, I hoe, I spade," whispered the alliance man. The ear was replaced witn an eye, anu in turn It gave place to a mouth, which whispered In reply, "The h I yon do," nd the wicket dropped with a bang. The indignant farmer shortly after met a "brother," lo whom he told bis tale of woe.. "Why, dod burn It," was the sharp comment of the brother, "tlieni 1 Knights of Pythias and you've give 'em our pass word." "Dogged if I ain't" was the response, "but (bright ning up) durn 'em I've got theirs." Substantial Roads. Good roads would make it possible for the farmer to take advantage promptly of the highest markets, no matter at what season of the year, and would lessen the expense of keeping horses in working order, and fewer horses would be required In the country to perform the farmers' work . They would af ford ready communication with the outside world at all times of the year, and would practically shorten the dis tance to the local market. They would bring every farming com 111 un ity into closer social relations, and an evening drive would be more of a pleasure than a vexation, as it now is. The most important point of good roads is that they would require less to keep ihem in repair than do the dirt roads, and would increase the de mand (or farm property. , Abskssobs Convbntion. The as sessors of Oregon are lo meet in Port land today, and it is expected the con vention will be a representative one, and that much benefit may result from the conference. A. number of Impor tant questions in connection witjbr the mattar f assessing will come up for discussion. Slightly Uhfortunatk As the little steamer Carrie F. was coming from Kelso to this place last Wednes day night with a crod of excursion- isle to attend the dance, she was so unfortunate as to run into a fish net just this side of Kalama. The net got tangled up in the prOieller and had lo be cut litiso, but even then there was so much of the uet wrapped around the wheel that it greatly re tarded the progress of tbe little craft. We are now having some renu'ne winter weather, but are glad to report good health in this neighborhood. On would suppose from tbe way the young people have been shaking their heels this winter that hard times has but little effect In the Nehalem country. They had a rousing time st Mr. Turpin's on Christ ina night, there bet ig about fifty numbers out, snd on New Year night Mr. Duywalt gave a dance where there was a Jolly good crowd, splendid m-isic, and tabl well filled with ull the good things any reason abl person could ask for. There has scarcely been a week that ther lias not been a social gathering of sonie kind In tbe neighborhood.

The thirtieth anniversary of the Knights of Pythias was celebrated by lodge No. 98, at Rainier, by giving a grand supper to their friends on the evening of Monday last. Each knight, of which their are some thirty-two in this lodge, was privileged to in vite several of his friends, and the result ras that upon entering their beautiful hall ne found as happy a looking group of arly one hundred people, in rich but not y attire, as they coulo wish to see. while wo long tables had been carefully arranged and loaded to repletion with viand which would cauie the mouth of an epicure to water in anticipation of what was before him. AD having been seated, Chancellor Commander M. lioth arose sud announced that a brief program bad been prepsred, and the exercises were opened with music followed by a brief invocation by Prelate Bruits. Knight W. A. Wo.hI then arose. and in dignified and measured terms ex tended a welcome to the guests, and gave a brief and cuncl-e review of I he origin and progress of the order. Brother C. L. Col burn, of St. Helens, responded in behalf of the guests In appropriate terms, after whirh BiotherW. J Hire stepped forward and delivered one of bis forceful, convincing, and characteristic addres-es which rivited the attention of the a idlence for over an hour. So eloquent and persuasive was his log'c that the bio ther knfghta may well feel proud of the aims and objects of their order, and the casual visitor, who had not given the subject much thought, felt like King Agrippa when he said to Paul, "Almost tlipu persuaded me to be a rhristiun." Closing with a few needless spolngies, he was compensated by s hearty round of ap plause, after whi-h more music followed, including a humorous solo by Mr! Colbnrn which Rainier never fails to appreclate.and in this case he was so heartily encored thnt he responded with another ong. By this time everyone was ia the best possible mood for the elegant supper awaiting llieiu. and cheerfully responded to the invitation of the chancellor, and soon the joyful peals of laughter proved tbe happiness of all pres ent. More music followed, and although tbs program was fittingly completed by an appropriate benediction by Prelate Bi ous. yet the guests lingered for nearly two hours and enjoyed a time whioh will not soon be effaced from the walls ot memory, thereby closing one of tha moat inecesaful social vents in the history of that little towu.
