So it went on nntil last October, I felt something terrible creeping over me, I knew not what, but kept getting worse. I can hardly explain my feelings at that time. I was ao depressed in spirits that I did not wish to live, although 1 bad everything to live for. Had hys teria, was very nervous; could not sleep and was not safe to be left alone.

Said to rte Supplying the Flllpluoe With Arms and Ammunition. 6n Francisco, Sept. HO. The Even. Ing Pont prints an article today in which it makes known the plans ot the Germans in regard to the disposition of the Philippine!1. ' It will be remembered that some time ago the Post published an exolu- sive artiolo regarding the soisure of the Ladrone islands by the United States. The details of this plot on the part of the government were furnished by a centleman high in opinion of gov eminent officials of this countiy and Germany. . The same gentleman now states that Germany is endeavoring to embitter the followers of Agulnsldo against the Americans, and she has officers in their ranks secretly drilling them. The gentleman in question says this has been going on for years, and, prior to the Interference of the United States in Philippine affairs, almost every Ger man vossol that landed there carried one or more officers in disguise, and stacks of arms and ammunition ior the insurgents. The Post's informant has just re oeived a letter trom an authoritative source in Hamburg giving details oi Germany's future in the islands. Briefly, the plan follows: Germany will send numerous trading vessels to the islands, and will arm 160.000 Fili pinos, besides furnishing Kiupp guns and artillery for field use. The island era will be thoroughly drilled by Ger man officers, and by February, Agui naldo will be prepared to make an on slaught upon the American forces. To aid this plot, the letter says, Gor- many ia trying to induce China to pur chase a large number of big war vessels, ostensibly to strengthen her navy, but really to be held for transfer to Ger many should complications arise. The German ageuts who have made a report to their government ear it will be im possible for the United States to land more than 60,000 men in the Philip pines before Aguinaldo ia ready to make bis coup. The German report of the condition of affairs says Amesaoa'e Only hope is to disarm the insurgents. The Post attributes the recent order ing of additional troops to Manila, after mustering ont bad been ordered, as an indication that the United 8tatea has been informed of Germany's attempt to frustrate American acquisition of the islands. HOLD-UP NEAR KANSAS CITY. Missouri Pacific Train Bobbed by Mea Who Used Dynamite. Kansas City, Sept. 86. The Colo rado and Coffeyville express train on the Missouri Pacific railway, which left Kansas City at 9:16 o'clock tonight. was held op by robbers near Leeds, a suburban station, about six miles out from the Union depot The locomo tive and baggage car were detached from the train and taken down the track toward Dodson. after which the robbers shattered the Pacific Express Company's car with dynamite- Officials of the express company state that the safe contained little treasure, as the messenger carried nothing des tined for points beyond Coffevvilie. The explosion of the dynamite wa beard by many persons in the south eastern part of Kansas City. Flying debris from the shattered car carried down telegraph wires along the Frisco track, which parallels the. Missouri Pa cific at that point. Before committing the hold-up the robbers entered the Frisco station at Belt Line, just east of Leeds, and over. powered the operator. After smashing the instrument in his office, they took the operator with them to the scene of the robbery. . The robbers numbered seven, it is seported. The scene of the hold-up ii not far from Brush creek of the Blue river, where there is thick brush and heavy timber, and the escape of the robbers from that locality would not be a difficult matter. A special train has taken police and railway detectives to the scene. At a late hour the train was still detained there, owing to the wreck of the baggage oar. So far as can be learned the passengers were not molested. Boa Over by a Wsgos. ; Silverton, Or., Sept. 26. An acci dent occurred at Down station yesterday evening, that resulted in the death of George Humpert. Mr. Ham pert was hauling water with an ox team from the Abiqua for use at his house. The team ran away throwing him off the wagon. The . rear wheels passed over his abdomen and left arm, breaking the arm and causing serious internal in- Jury, which resulted in his death.

France's targe Wheat Crop. Paris, Sept 24. The French wheat crop Is estimated at 123,000,000 hecto liters, the largest since 1874, when the yield was 186.000.000. This will render France independent of foreign importa tions of wheat. - Gold oa toe Humboldt. Seattle, Sept. 26. The steamer Hnmbolt has arrived here, 18 days from St Michaels, with 230 passengers from Dawson City, the majority of whom are glad to get baek to civiliza tion. There were only a few who bad any gold dust. .The steamer Al-Ki ar rived today from Skagway with 230 passengers, most of whom are from Copper river. Fifteen passengers from Dawson had but a small amount of gold dust. Seattle. Wash., Sept. 86. The steam schooner Samoa arrived here to night from St Michaels, Alaska, with 63 Klondikers and gold dust estimated at $100,000. Among the Samoa's pas sengers was Dr. Wolf, of San Fmn oisco. The officers of the Samoa report the steamer Bertha was to sail from St. Michaels .September 13, for San Fran cisco, with one of the largest gold car goes of the season. They estimated that it would be between f 2,600,000 and $3,090,000. A number of rich miners were to come down on the Bertha, among them the Berry broth ers, of Sab Franciico- WEEKLY MARKET LETTER. (Reported hy Powtling. Hopkins A Co., Inc.. ftoard ot Trade Brokers, 711 lo 711 Chamber ol Couiraerue buUdtog, rortland, Oregon.) Theie has been of late, the world over, a little shading ot the early oliiims as to wheat supplies. The latest is the reduction by the Washing ton authorities in their estimate of the 1883 crop 686,000,000 bushels, in stead of the 607,000.000 bushels in Au gust. This year's is no longer "the bigsestj crop on record," a high-sounding phrase which so ofteu plays suuh havoo with prices and stands so well in lieu ot oil arguments. There was 4 bifger crop in 1891. . The official drop ping of the figures under the even 600, 000,000 bushels figure will count for something. A round total like that ia more appalling for some reason, In a discussion than the more precise one, which may be only a little under it Perhaps the government figures are not high enough, and likely as not the acre age has been underestimated, but that makes nopartloulardifferenoe. If thai, la true this year, it has also been trua in ether seasons and need not upset the satisfaction over the tact that this yeur's Amerioan wheat crop is not "a record breaker." Private statisticians have been reduoing their early wheat tstimates, which is also confirmatory of the claim that there has been a "shading ot crop figures" all around. It has not been going on alone on this continent. Lurope is now disputing as to whether Russia has a good or bad yield, having dropped the early claim as to a vast one. France - alone has about fulfilled its early promises. In reference to supplies from every source, the trade is now talking conservatively rather than ia the extravagant let ma of June and July. Argentine, ship ments have stopped absolutely, after contributing a total of less than 23,- 000,000 bushels. , Russia is shipping a thitd as much each week as a year ago, and, according to Liverpool is cancel ing early September contracts. These look like bull statements and will nat urally ; suggest all those other signifi cant facts which are of the -other sort and which ought to be presented if any fair argument were to be attempted.

SOLDIER CLARKB RIDES DOWN A PRECIPICE. r. ... if ' ! if Ujfs Deeds ot daring are characteristic of the war with Spain. American soldiers and sailors only want opportunity to perform acts of heroism that become historic. For the lack of a better cause the spirit of bravery occasionally shows Itself In performances more daring than necessary. The steepest hill around Santiago is that of San Juan. That was the hill that the Americans captured on those fatal days in early July when so many of our boys laid down tholr lives. It wss steep enough, but nothing to the precipice on the other side. No man had ever gone down It Of course no horse had ever tried It After the famous charge I rivate Clarke of the rough riders made the blood of his comrades run cold by dellbcr stely riding his horse Dandy to the brink. Dandy never faltered. He pot his forefoot into a pocket of stone and started. The next foot was as carefully plant ed. Two more strides and be was on the face of the cliff. Clnrke leaned back as far as he could and talked reassuringly to his gallant steed. Dandy braced back on all four legs and slowly picked his way. The meo on the crest ot the cliff were afraid to cheer as they watched horse and man picking their way. They were afraid of startling the horse. Down, down they went From up on the height horse and man looked like flies. Rocks rolled and slipped and crashed down to the plain below. But never once did Dandy lose his foothold and never once did Private Clarke lose his aerve. Inch by Inch the two picked their way, though It looked as if the horse were standing on his head, and as if the man would fall over his head any moment At last the daring pair reached the bottom. A mighty cheer went up. CHINA'S "BLACK FLAGS." In Formosa They Follow the Horrible Practice of Bead Hunting-. The Black Flags are again In revolt In China against the authority of the melancholy and feeble emperor, who sits on the dragon throne. These Black Flags are numerous In the southern provinces of the empire and are the most savage of the races living In China. In Formosa, now a Japanese pos session, the Black Flags are strong and practice, head hunting.. All that the head hunter need carry Is a spear to kill, a knife to cut and a bag to put the head In. The spear Is twenty feet long, of bamboo, aud has an Iron, arrow-shaped head eight Inches long. The knife, which Is carried In the belt Is eighteen Inches long, of Iron, with a keen edge find point Tho bag Is of cord and opens and shuts like a net and Is carried over the shoulders. It Is large enough to hold two .or three heads. Sometimes the hend hunter car ries a bow and arrows, and occasionally a matchlock gun. If a month goes by without someone In a tribe bringing In a head, the tribe grows restless, and a foray on a Chinese settlement Is planned. When, on rare occasions, they start out In the daytime, they go singly. Creeping op behind the workers In the fields, they slay with the spear, and then, the victim being dead or dis abled, thoy finish with the knife. But at night the bunt Is conducted in com panies. A house Is selected and sur rounded and the attack Is made. Some times one hunter, less of a coward than the others, creeps up and sets Are to the thatched shelter. At other times damp grass smudges are thrust through the chinks, and the occupants are smoked out When the raid has been successful, and all the heads possible to get are In the bags, the hunters return to their villages to whoop It tip. All those who have stayed behind come out of doors to welcome their braves. Everyone shout and shrieks and howls, making more noise than the village dogs, which Is saying a good deal. The story of the raid Is told amid great excitement and CHINA'S FEROCIOUS gesticulation, and the bags are opened for inspection. , , . The beads are placed In an open space, and the whole village gathers round. Beside tbe heads Is placed a vessel with liquor distilled from the mountain rice. This liquor is bciicvea tn ho the snlrlt of the victims, and of It Is asked tho favor of putting the hunters in the way of getting more heads. Rvorvnno drinks, men. women and children, and everyone gets drunk. Their yells, so far at tboy can be re produced In English, sound like "Hl rahl Hl-vehl HI-yo-be!Bhl" The demonstrations are kept up three days, and then the beans are disposed or. Sometimes the heads are put on tripod notes, and at other times they are left till the flesh drops off, and then are put up on the poles. Sometimes the e. 'am . i 1 'i : mil beads are boiled and the flesh eaten, and Invariably tbe brains are boiled to a Jelly and devoured with a relish. MAKE YOUR OWN FILTER. Not Difficult or Expensive to Hots Pure, Clear Water. A home-made filter for purifying drinking water for domestic uses Is do scribed as consisting of an ordlnnrj decanter, a lam( glass, such as cat be purchased any where for a few cents, by way of I funnel, and a plcct of sponge or cot ton wool; Boint people prefer cot ton wool becauM It can be throws awny after a t!m and renewed at nominal cost. If s sponge Is chosen It ought to bo tnk en out often, clean ed In hot salt wat cr aud afterward rinsed In cold. Th sponge or cotton wool Is placed fot the distance of in Inch In the lam; shade. This is thon covered by a layet of fine white sand, which has been washed very clean and placed In a fin lawn bag. This must be packed through the top of tbe glass and spread out to fit across by the aid of a long pencil or a skewer. On top ot the sand must be placed a layer of animal char coal which has been thoroughly wash ed by putting It in an earthen vessel and pouring boiling water upon It Thfi layer should be at least an Inch deep, and should be well pressed down upon tbe layer of sand. The filter Is now ready for use. Water Is poured Into the lamp shade and allowed to perco late slowly through to the decanter be neath. After a time the charcoal wll "BLACK FLAGS." get clogged, and little must be taken from tbe top and boiled for a few min utes and then spread out before tbe fire. It will then be as good as ever, and can thus be cleansed Indefinitely. From time to time also the whole ap paratus will want cleansing, and the whole of the charcoal, as well as the bag of sand and the cotton wool ot sponge, will have to be taken out and thoroughly boiled, or, better still, re placed with nenv material.
