WALLA WALLA WAS QUIET - Sunday was the quietest day Walla Walla has seen oor a lonng time. It was Impossible to separate oneself from a cent of money, except at the hotels and restaurants, and then for something to eat nothing else. At the livery stables for a ride, the drug store for medicine, the undertaking establish ment for a casket, or at the church for charity and the good of the cause, a man could spend a little money. . The only other places of business that were open was the boot blacking adjunct to a Main street barber shop, and the individual on duty did not seem to be doing a very rushing business. . Every cigar store and confectionery had the "closed" sign displayed prominently on the front door. The thirsty were not only unable to get a drink but the smok ers were unable to get a cigar, and had to content themselves with walking up and down the street and looking wistfully in at the closed doors.

AS VIEWED BY A STUDENT The following extract from a letter sent in by a student at one of the large Osteo pathic college may serve to indicate what the science is doing where it has become the trusted refuge of air the ' afflicted, whatever their ailments: "Osteopathy may not work miracles or accomplish all it aims to, but it is the peer of any other line of therapeutics we have ever known in every disease we have seen (and we have seen hundreds al ready). . "We feel that we can speak from ex perience, too, for we were brought up as allopaths, converted early in life to homo eopathy, gave eclecticism a trial of years, have had much to do with some of the best specialists New York City affords, and can truthfully say that Osteopathy can do more, for less money and in less time, than we have ever known any of them even to attempt accomplishing. With no operations, no "blowing of horns," or the least apparent effort to attract at tention, this great science has accom plished cures in cases that have been for years directly under medical treatment and that the best to be had even the great and only Osier. Cases of paralysis, chorea, rheumatism, all sorts and kinds of diseases, and I've witnessed (with many others) these wonderful cures after sseing the cases when they first came. So, you see, it did not take years, either, to do the work. We are more than ever devoted to the science, in spite of all sacrifice and hard work." Right Way. OH TANK FOR UMATILLA Umatilla, Feb. 13.

'His agony i'8 made him delirious, poor old chap ' Kcime the universal verdict as the :r, h! die-aged man's roars of laughter grew even louder - But there was something In th quality of his laughter that puzzle j me. for all that It sounded to me like mighty healthy, human, rolllcJilnR laughter laughter that was actually rroceedlng from the mirthful midriff of the run-over man. To my ears It didn't have even a little bit of the grus nme sound or the kind of laughter that proceeds from those In a state of delirium.- , There, there, old chap, easy now we'll get you out of that fix all right' ald some of the willing helpers, a they started to see what they could do Toward disentangling the middle-aged man from the wheels of the car .

"The helpers looked at one another with mystified countenances. , " 'why, that man s not hysterical. oor bug-house, either,' said one ol them. 'Say, old friend,' he continued, addressing the still prostrate man, what's all this that's so infernally funny. heyT You might a well let us all In on It, heyr "The man who wa lying face down ward on the wet pavement with his fg still under the car wheel,, re trained his mirth with great difficulty ing enough to gasp: - " 'Why, dang It all. boys, can't yo'i ee that the leg that's been run Over m a woo-woo-wooden leg!' and then he howled Joyously once again. . "The willing helpers looked a If they'd gone up against a sad sort of a sell, but the prostrate man's laughter was perfectly Infectious, and they Joined In It "Then they managed to pull him 'rom. beneath tha car. when they saw hat. sure enough, the crushed leg was of the seasoned ash variety "They put the good-humored middle-aged man into a cab and sent him along to the home address he gave He waved his hand merrily at them out of I he cab window before starting for pome. . v " 'Well, hoys, be called out T mayn't have beat the devil around the tump thi time, but I'll be nangedV if I nsven't beat him with It!"
