GRAY, Medford, Oregon Eifert's MADE TO ORDER GARMENTS A Chance for Miners. Does anybody know of a deposit of silica sand of any magnitude? f be does be bss a marketable product and a bunoh of money in eight, depend ent upon the size of the deposit. Tbe Oregon Development League la authonzed by the Columbia Steel works, of Portland, to make tbe following offer: "We will take one hundred tons each month of silica sand, 06 per cent pure silica and free from Iron orfidea, delivered at Portland at not to exceed 6 per ton, and we will pay $100 ln cash to tbe discoverer." Silica aand Is now being shipped to Portland and other Iron and steel manufaotuilng 'ceoteta of tbe Paolflo ooaat from Mlnneeota. It haa been frequently reported tbat large quan tities of pear silica have been dis covered . and tbe community that "makes good" In this Instanoe bas a greater aouroe of revenue than gold or copper mines, lumber mills, or factories of any kind, for when a pendable quality of slloia aand la found in quantltlee sufficient to supply tbe demand.all the Iron works from the Golf of California to Alaska, and from the Rooky mountains west, Willi be cnstomeis.

The position taken by tbe dancers gives tbe name to the "quadrille" literal English for "a little square" in tbe French tongue. From tbe French we get also "country dance," which, as a matter of fact, bas no reference to rural frolics. "Contredanse," which has reference to tbe position of tbe couples, opposite each other, Is readily corrupted into "country dance." Tbe "polka" Is a Polish dance, the name being derived from the Bohemian word "polka," meaning half, and refers to the half step which occurs ln this measure. The "waits" Is German waltzes, meaning to revolve the cir cular motion of the couples easily ex plaining the connection. The "reel" Is suggestively obvious. "Jig" Is of course from the French glgue. Har per's Weekly. who had been waiting for blm fired at him three times from a revolver. Cos gray quickly walked over to him, took hla gun away and Bald: "Now, look here, daddy, if yon do that again I'll prosecute you." It bad fallen to Coegray ln tbe line of duty to serve an execution on tbe old man. who, worried by financial dif ficulties, bad got lopsided mentally and conceived the Idea tbat Cosgray was personally responsible for his troubles. The late Judge A. E. Wilson of Cnlon town was at that time holding court in Wayneeburg and had witnessed tbe shooting from the window of his hotel. Many others hnd seen it too. "Now," remarked the Judge to his stenographer, L.L. Minor, at his side, "when that shooting comes up for in vestigation in court we'll learn bow many dl9ernt stories tbe witnesses wUl tell about it" The Judge knew from long experi ence hoar many viewpoints there are to sucb episodes, but this case never came up to trial. In 1876 a Greene county man who bad become bankrupt at least to the extent of Inability or unwillingness to pay his debts In Greene county went to Philadelphia, where be secured a valuable concession ln connection with the Centennial exposition. Reports were brought back to Wayneeburg dur ing tbe summer by visitors that be waa making barrels of money. Cos gray listened with much Interest, but without comment, to all these stories, becrfuse this man bad left Greene coun ty owing him 5.000. Finally Coegray one day packed hla grip and left town. Next day he turned up in Philadelphia at the hotel where his prosperous debt or was stopping and was shown by re quest to tbe letter's room. Bis recep tion wns noisily hilarious. "Why, hello, Jim! Glad to see you, old boy. What In the world brings you to the city?" lie shook Jim's hand with every external appearance of great joy. But the eentlment as all ono way. "I come to git that $11,000 ye owe me." Jim's eyeB reflected no feellnga of esteem. He was simply out for his stuff. "Sorry, Jim, very sorry, indeed I am. but I haven't got it and therefore, can't pay ye. 1 would If I could." "Well. I rather guess ye'U have to git It somehow or other. I came here from Waynesburg especially fer what ye owe me, and I'm not goin' back without K." Cosgray got up, walked to the door, locked It and put tbe key ln his pocket Then he said "It's lust this way, my friend. Waynesburg people have been coming home from Philadelphia all summer telling bow much money you've been makln' here, and I think they've been tellln' tbe truth, for I've been very careful In my Inquiries about yon. Now, I want that money." Here he took a revolver from his pocket and ominously tapped on tbe table with tbe muzzle. "I'm an old man, with but a few more yeara to live, and I'm not a bit partickler whether I live 'em at all or not That 15,000 '11 make 'em pass a sight easier. I don't Intend' to live without the money, and I don't Intend you shall live with If The man knew Coegray meant every word be said. He fenced and fumed, threatened and spattered, but there sat the silent, grim old ex-sberill, gun in hand, ready to touch it off any Instant Els determination never wavered. He was a man of few words, and tbe out come was exactly as be bad resolved It should be. The man went to a comer of his room, opened a .satchel and counted out $5,000 to Cosgray. The sheriff returned to Waynesburg and nut It ln tbe bank, and no one ever knew how he came by It until tbe vic tim himself finally dljjrardened bis heart of Its weight of woe. Unlontown Cor.
