In company with Mr. Mentz
Stene (a visiting friend from Sioux
Falls, South Dakota) I left Talent
Wednesday, August 1st, bent on
seeing the country and scenery of
southern Oregon. We had ft horse
and buggy, and supplies and outfit
for camping.
We went eastward as lar as
Yainax Indian agency going via
tbe Rogue river route, we. took in
the grand scenery of the falls of
Mill creek, 175 feet perpendicular,
and Rogue river rapids, which fall
300 feet in one-quarter of a mile,
and if utilized would furnish power
sufficient to run all the machinery
of the country.
At Prospect we found a hue prop
erty of a . saw-mill, a large hotel
building nearly completed, a store
of assorted merchandise, a good
school-house a postoffice, several
dwelling houses and as beautiful. a
site for a town or city as one could
wish to see. Mr. btan. Aiken aims
to keep a hotel and supplies of all
kinds, for sojourners to that health
resort and enchanting locality. J.
take Mr. A. to be a business man
and a gentleman.
For the next twelve miles we pass
through as fine, a body of sugar pine
and fir as the world affords, if or
miles one can scarcely see the sun
m midday, for heavy timber. The
soil is rich and the surface gently
rolling. Beyond Union creek we
find an undulating valley more or
less timbered for seventeen miles,
when we commence to rise steeper
until wo come to a guide-board
which directs to the left two arid
one-half miles to Crater lake. We
followed an old road and a fresh
buggy track, until we concluded to
leave our horse to rest while we
went up afoot to view the lake. My
companion gave out before reaching
the lake and he was satisfied to
take my word for the balance. We,
however, had a magnificent view of
mountain scenery, and Klamath
marsh, which, at present, is an im
mense lake. Leaving an altitude
of 7000 feet we drove twenty miles.
gently down 4000 feet, to old fort
Klamath. There remains nothing
of the wonted granduer of ten years
agone, except two of those large
"officers' quarters" and the magnifi
cent grounds and spring of lOld
water. In a five mile drive, on a
road fit for a city park, we reached
Klamath agency. All of a sudden
off to our right we noticed several
new three-story buildings, then the
lake about one mile off; but close to
our right we suddenly came in view
of a spring of water trom winch
flows a stream of cold, clear water
with volume and fall sufficient to
nm almost any amount of machin
ery or supply a city of 100,000. It
all runs to waste except running a
small saw-mill occasionally. There
is a fine school-house and two board
ing-houses, with 110 Indian stu
dents fifty-five of each sex in
attendance. We attended chapel
service at 11 a. m., Sunday, Aug.
5th. Rev. Father Starnes and
wife, the missionaries, are well liked
and doing much good. It did me
pood to hear the Indian choir of
twenty voices singing of their Re
deemer. . We concluded that Jesus
had conquered those one-time sav
ages, and the "mission" is a success.
Prof. Paine as superintendent, and
Mrs. Paine as matron, are the right
people in the right place.

We camped sunaay nigm on ine
bank of the Williamson river, near
the bridge on the Yainax agency
road. The place is famous for fish-
mrr. but mv menu soon lost onr
hook in the vain attempt to land
a rock. Reaching Yainax agency
Monday evening we were hospitably
entertained by Prof. Terry, acting
lupenntendent in the absence ot
Superintendent L. F. Willetts, who
i3 visiting in Jackson, county dur
ing vacation. We learned that the
school is making satisiactory pro
gress, with ninety Btudents in
attendance. These teachers govern
by kindness and teach etiquette by
example. All orders are indicated
by taps of the bell, and tbe students
and laborers act in nniiormny
words being superfluous. The im
pressions left with strangers are
that those Indians are nearer civi
lized now than the average white
citizens' hoodlum children around
our country schools. The Indian
nolice patrol at all public meetings
and keep perfect order throughout
the reservation.
Wednesday we visited with my
brother, in the Alkali valley, where
he has a fine ranch, well improved
for the time (three years) since set
tlement. He has twenty acres of
tha heaviest rve I ever saw. It

numerous domes, In which wholesale
trade is carried on. It v.-aa a rainy day
whon we first went through tho bazaars,
nnd wo appreciated tho advantage of go
ing shopping under cover.
The largest bazaar ia in "the street
called Straight" Its great roof extends
for a, 000 feet, with small shops on each
side. It is wido enough for carriages.
By the way, this street is straight,
though Mark Twain mudo a reflection
indicating that tho expression in the
Bible (see Acts) was ironical. The con
sul who represents the United States
government in Damascus is a Syrian,
and that fact mokos him a permanent
officer. He Is not obliged to turn over
his offlco to somebody else when a new
administration cornea into power.
Ho received us very politely and de
tailed a "kawass" a sort of official mil
itary escort to attend us while wo re
mained in tho city. This ia rather desir
able, as it insures respectful treatment.
Without such an escort we might have
unkind remarks thrown at ua, though
wo slionlu not unucrsiana mem. ine
"kawass" could not talk English, but
another young man from tho consul s
office also went with us. He epoke Eng
lish and was nn intelligent and agree
able guide. He took us to see the inte
riors of two very handsome houses, one
a Mohammedan's and the other a Jew a.
Wo did not see tho proprietor of the
first, but the Jew took us into his libra
ry and showed us copies of the Jewish
Scriptures un double rolls. As tho read
er proceeds ho unrolls from ono to tho
other. Wo also visited an Lsglisn mis
sion school for girls, in which tho pupils
had pretty and bright faces. .They are
mostly Greek Christians, but onr "ka
wass, who is a Aloh&mniedan, aeemea
to take great pleasure in pointing out
his daughter in one of the classes.
Of the walls of Damascus only tbe
lower courses date from Roman times, j
Above these courses is Arabian work, i
end, still higher, Turkish. It is rather j
unfavorable to strong emotions when j
looking at the place where Panl was let
down to observe that this part of the
wall is Turkish, not more than 300
years old j
About tbe most satisfactory thing wo
did in Damascus was a ride to tho
northern suburbs, where from the slope
of a hill we got a fine view of the whole
irrigated valley, with tho city set in a
frame ot verdure All outside of this
was brown and barren. The domes and
minarets of tho city moko a very pretty
picture, in tho center of which stand
the citadel and the great mosque, which
was par 'ially destroyed by fire only last
year. Onr guide pointed out to us the
caravan roads to Mecca and Palmyra,
extending across the great desert to the
horizon. This view gave us by far the
best idea of Damascus and its surround
ings. Twenty miles away we caught the
gleam of a lake, into which the Barada
(the Abana of Scriptures) pocrs its flood.
Except in the spring it is rather a mo
rass than a lake.
Our hotel at Damascus, tho Hotel
Diamatxi-Kara, was formerly the palace
of a wealthy pasha, and it contained in
teresting specimens of decorative work
of the first class. It is verv well kept
far better than any hotel in Jerusalem, j
r . T , , . I '
la iocs, me .icruaaieni uuuu on uie
poorest vre have .encountered so far in
our travels. Our Damascus hotel was
built around a central court, embellish
ed by a handsome fountain and orango
and lemon trees. Every window on tho
street in Damascus, tho streets being
narrow, is covered by a wooden lattice.
Yon can look out through it, but yon
cannot see into the room across tho way.
It is considered very improper to raise
this lattice. Yon might see a Moham
medan woman, or she might see von,
which would moke trouble. A very pe
culiar effect is produced by a figured
muslin which many of the Mohamme
dan women wear over their faces. It
mokes them look like masqueradors
with masks. You see something that
looks like features, but it is not. A
roguish eye may be twinkling under the

Under the Belgian constitution the
king's valet is responsible to parliament
for the safety of the royal person. At
night, therefore, when the Belgian mon
arch has retired to his "salle a oou
cher," the valet turns the key upon him
and locks himself in tbe antechamber,
where he himself sleeps, by turning the
key also of tho outer door. If, therefore,
a miscreant had any designs upon the
person of tho king, he would first of all
have to force tho door of the antecham
ber, overcome the armed resistance of
the valet and then unlock the door of
tho royal chamber. London Tit-Bits.

have observed, not infrequently make
decisions contrary to the judgment of
the few, which ultimately are justified
by the outcome. Seth Low in Dona
