The other day, the woatbor being balmy aud springlike, this policouau took Lis little daughter with him, that she might enjoy tho wall guarded flow ers aud the clean walks of the private grouuds during his two hours of duty. The little girl is not quito six years old.

Ruth ran ahead of her nurse, aud, upon discovering a girl of her own age, strutted up and survey ed her from head to foot After looking the littlo girl over, Ruth straightened hersolf up, aud, with an air of impor tance, said: "My papa is president; who is your papa?" The policeman's daughter defiantly replied : "My papa is a policeman. " Ruth glanced up at the burly form, oruamentod with bright brass buttons, and, bunging her head in an abashed manner, replied : "I wish my papa was a policeman. " Something New In College Trick. At Monut Union college, during the usual term orations of the junior class, W. M. Fatherly, a junior, whose home is at Lisbon, was delivering bis address. He was waxing eloquent iu bis orator ical flights, when suddenly a big white ourtain descended in front of bini, com pletely shutting off the speaker from the audience. On the curtain was painted in glowing letters, "God help these lit tle juniors. " Fatherly ceased speaking, aud his oratorical effort bus not yet been finished. Cinciuuati Commercial Gazette.

A number of valuable dogs have been poisoned in The Dalles reoeutly, aud the owners are after the poisoner, who bus thus far escaped punishment At the close of the East Oregon pres bytery a resolution was adopted offer' ing a vote of thanks to the people of La Grande for the hospitality extended to the visitors. Mosier has a monstrosity in the shape of a oalf with two mouths, one immediately underneath the other. The oalf, to all appearances, is per fectly formed otherwise. Sheriff Knight, of Marion county, has turned into the oounty treasury his fourth annual installment of taxes collected for the year 1895 The amount was 3,188.B3. Crook oounty has three candidates for sheriff, L. W. Woods, who was de feated for nomination in the recent Democratic convention, having an nounced bimself an independent can didate. Mrs. Angeline Frazier, the wife of William Frazier, died at her home in Cove, Union oounty, April 4, 1896. Mrs. Frazier was one of the earliest pioneers of Eastern Oregon, and bad been a resident of Union oounty for many years. Mr. Perard, a sheepraiser of Eoho, is preparing to drive his sheep to the Cascades. The animals have been shorn and toe wool sold for 8 oeuts per pound. The clip realized six tons from 1,600, an average of eight pounds to the fleece. Three of Crook oounty's babies, Fred Smith, Love Bailey and R. E. Misener, met in Prineville recently and some en thusiastic friend took them down to the hay soales and tipped them at 825 ponndB. Pretty good for a oow oounty, the Review thinks.

Porter was to have been banged last week, but an appeal was taken and execution stayed. For there years every person within the corporate limits of Florenoe who was liable to road tax has been in doubt aa to whether be should work it out under the city marshal or the road supervisor appointed by the ooun ty court, and the uncertainty of the situation is as perplexing this year as ever. . The owners of floating flshwheels near The Dalles, have most of them in the river, and are catohing some fish, but so far the oatch has been very light, owing, no doubt, to the low stage of the water. Stationary wheels are still high and dry and are doing nothing, and will not until the water has risen ten or fifteen feet. The Corvallis Times confirms the report of a new flouring mill for Mon roe. Orders for 600 worth of new maobinery for the mill have been plaoed in Portland. The mill is to be looated on the farm of E. Maude, one and a half miles north of Monroe. It is to be a roller process, with steam power, and the capaoity to be fifty or sixty barrels per day. Work is to be gin in a short time. The miners at the ooal mine east of Coquille had a narrow escape last week. L. P. Maury, one of the miners, while working, hit what be supposed to be a tree knot, whioh on examination, proved to be two atioka of giant powder, both with cap and fuse attached. It seems almost a won der the charge did not explode, the cap being slightly indented from tbe f oore of the blow of tbe piok and a serious accident happen. It is thought the oharge was plaoed by the negroes, who previously worked tbe mine, and who neglected to remove it Tbe Long Creek Eagle says that Hugh Arbuckle recently found tbe skeleton of a human being in an alkali lick on the middle fork of the John Day, near the mouth of Granite creek. While looking after some stock, Mr. Arbuckle was attracted to the liok by a peculiar formation caused by tbe incessant licking of the animals and the action of tbe elements for years past What appeared to be a knee joint protruding above tbe surface, led Arbuckle to vigorous efforts, and with the aid of a pick and shovel what proved to be tbe remains of a man were soon unearthed. Notwithstand ing tbe fact that they most have lain for many years in this alkali forma tion, tbe bones were all well pre served. Waahia g-ton. There will be a one day teaohers' in stitute in Whatoom, Saturday, May 1. George Lee is planting fruit trees in sixty acres of land in the Kennewick valley. Tbe opening of the reservation has given quite an impulse to trade at Colville. The directors of the Tekoa schools have teachers who now constitute tbe educational staff in that city. A burglar succeeded in making off with $280, taken from tbe bouse of Charles Ousts vers, a floor and feed dealer of Auburn. Six families of Hollanders were lo cated in tbe Ttkima valley last week, Another parry of these people is ex- epcted there in July. Seattle now has a law library asso- f ciatioa. Nearly all of tbe attorneys over 800 have subscribed and prom ised hearty support Judge Pritchard of Pierce county, holds that a chattel mortgage in Wash ington is a mere lieu upon the chattols, and does not affect tbe ownershsp of tbe goods mortgaged. An effort is being made to reorganize tbe Centralis Water Works Copmauy, so as to fund the present indebtedness and secure mono) to extend the plant and build a power-house. John Cleman last week moved 10, 000 bead of sheep from tbe Columbia river, bottoms to his rauoh in the Wenas, where the increase will be oared for and shearing begun soon. Thomas Johnson and Sid Crull, who were oonvioted iu Walla Walla of bav ing sandbagged 8. Malaomson, have been seutenued, Johnson to tbe peni tentiary for ten years and Crull to the reform school. . The board of oounty commissioners of Pierce couuty has closed a oontraot with Attorney E. W. Taylor to prose- oute the collection of the delinquent personal tax-roll. The amount out standing is about $10,000. Persons from Yakima in traveling over tbe mountains to Weuatobee, re cently encountered snow to the depth of 15 feet; of tbe company of live, two lost their way and had a serious time getting out of the mountains. Thieves entered Captain Ward's grocery store at Eagle harbor last week, while Manager Slater was at supper, and a large amount of flour, oanned goods, etc., was carried off. Several other robberies were also com imtted. In Seattle two Chinese, Chin Jim Wah, bookkeeper of tbe Wa Chong Company, and Chin Chong, manager, filed identification papers for their children, the object being for the off spring in due time to be able to inherit whatever property their fathers may leave, and not be subjected to litiga tion. Manager F. A. Huntley, of the Puy- allup agricultural experiment station, has arranged for experiments in flax oulture the present season. Twenty plats will be sown at Pnyallnp for the purpose of demonstrating the quality of fibre produoed, and arrangements have been made for a limited number of experiments in Lewis, Cowlita, Clark and other oounties. E. R. Learning of Yakima has had wagon equipped in the prairie schooner fashion, and with his wife has started for a trip aoross the coun try. They will go through Oregon by wagon and will stick to tbe convey ance so long as they find it comfortable and beneficial to their health, whioh is the object of the trip. Their present intention is to go to Mexico, and they expect to be absent from Yakima about flvo months. Allen Sbadle, father of Joseph Shadle, whose mysterious death at the Steilaooom asylum oaused a sensation, has addressed a ciroular letter to the people of tbe state of Washington, from his home in Ohio, appealing for justioe, and declaring his belief that both Sbadle and Frank Barrett were murdered. Barret was an attendant at the asylum, and died suddenly on the street one night in Taooma. Shadle offers a reward of 500 eaoh for oonvio- tion of tbe murderers of his son and Barrett. Idaho Mining Notes. The Daddy mine, at Murray, is said to have netted its owners $50,000 dur ing the year 1895. A conservative estimate plaoes the output of concentrates from the Coeur d'Alene mills at 10,000 tons per month. The building of boats in Lewiston is assuming oonsideralbe importance. Several boats are being constructed at that point. F. A. Bauer of Elk City writes ad vising men and prospectors, who con template going into that oountry, to wait a few weeks longer, as there is considerable snow, whioh will inter fere with prospecting and inspection of properties. Considerable prospecting is being done in the hills between Wallaoe and Murray, and quite a number of tbe olaims have a (toed showing of ore, says the Wallaoe frees. It is strange that old prospectors mould find any satisfaction in leaving Idaho for Brit ish Columbia to hunt for new mines, when there is suon a good field here. There is plenty of undeveloped ground in this section and there is no reason why it should not be opened up. Montana Mining News. The license law as passed by the late legislature of Montana has finally been declared constitutional by tbe su preme court Tbe Montana Ore Purchasing Com pany has declared its usual dividend of $1 per share. Tbis dividend is at tbe rate of 48 per oent An accident ooourred at tbe Alice mine last week that was somewhat miraculous, inasmuch that no one was injured. The ground beneath tbe ma chine shop suddenly dropped, leaving a hole about twelve feet deep and forty feet in diameter. An assay office has been started up at Melrose under tbe supervision of M D. Fleming, a well-known chemist of Butte. Mr. Fleming was in Butte this week and reports the mineral outlook in thst section as being excellent Another dividend has been declared by the Boston & Montana Company at tbe main office in Boston of $2.00 per share. This dividend is payable on May 20. Tbis makes a total of $4, 025,000 up to date. Tbe Butte owners in tbe War Eagle Company At Rossland received word lhat at a meeting of directors at Spokane a dividend of five cents per share was declared on the 600,000 shares of stock of that company, mak ing $25,000. TRADE IS IMPROVING. Mora ravorable Mepurts Mad bjr the Weekly ltevleas. New York. R. U. Dun & Co.'s weekly review of trade, says: ".The sudden change from sleighing to summer beat, with fair skies in most oities, bas tested the prevalent idea tbat good weather only was need ed to bring genearl improvement in business Everywhere there has been more retail buying, and in some branches better demand at wholosale. There is no abatement of the almost universal disposition to deal with un usual conservatism and not to antici pate future wants, and this has been especially conspicuous where combina tions have been formed or prices ad vanced. The comparative infrequenoy of serious failures, with mono 1ms dis turbed since gold exports began than might have been expected, helps to give enoonragoment, but does not kindle speculative fires, and suoh improvement as appears is mainly of a healthy sort 'To many interested in iron ore and coke, steel billets, Bessemer pig and various forms of steel, it may be dis appointing that tbe forming of com binations and fixing of prices have not started again the rush to buy ahead of needs, which made last year so mem orable. But it is not easy to forget the lesson whioh the past year taught In stead of increasing, purchases have, on the whole, rather slackened, though sales are a little better in tank plates and in sheets at Chicago, bbssemer pig aud gray forge are a little lower at Pittsburg, as is the average of all iron and steel quotations, and obstacles have not been overcome. The greatest consumers of lake ore have not hastened to make contracts at advanoed piroes, and tho output of ooka is stationary. Tinplate makers are meeting, and some proposo to produce steel for their trade at plants of their own. Unsold stocks increased in Maroh 18,588 tons more than was reported last week. At the West almost every other town seoms to want steel for some building, and good orders have been plaoed for bars by im plement and oarmakers. Heavy pro duction of oopper defeats heavy ex ports, and 10,0 is quoted for lake, and spelter has broken to $4. 10. 'Wheat rose about 5o last week, met some miction, but is a shade higher than a week ago. 'Failures for the week have been 223 in the United States, against 241 last year, and ! in Canada, against 84 last year." Importaut Ueologloal Surrey. Washington, April 22. Many im portant papers of an eoonomlo nature aro embodied in part of the 16th an nual report of the geological survey year. These relate mainly to geology and water supply problems, and are all written by authors of national reputa tion. The report comprises tbe follow ing: Geology and mining industries of the Cripple Creek district, Colorado; a geologioal reconnaissance across Ida ho; the geology of tbe road-building stones of Massachusetts, with some consideration of similar materials from other parts of the United States; eoo nomio geology of the Merour mining district of Utah; the publio lands and their water supply; water resources of a portion of the great plains. Tbe bulk of the report will be delivered to con gress. Indiana Proves Satisfactory, Washington, April 16. The special board, consisting of Captain Picking, Constructor Barney and Chief Engineer Ross, who was appointed to make the trip from Port Royal to Hampton Roads on tbe Indiana, and thus make the final inspection of that vessel, has submitted its report to the navy depart ment. The board finds that there is no weakness or defeot in tbe bull, fit tings or equipment, nor is there any defect in the maobinery. Tbe ship handled well in every particular, with a remarkable absence of heavy rolling, the maximum roll under a broadside sea being 20 degrees. Looking for Trouble. Waterloo, la., April 21. Evangelist Howard is threatened by a mob on ao- oount of his wild remarks in the pul pit. Tne local paper criiioizea me evangelistwho retaliated by calling the author of the article "a blaok hearted liar." A prominent lawyer, who endorsed tne evangelist s state mmit. tkat "Waterloo is as rotten as bell," has been banged in effigy. The evangelist nourished a revolver, and threatened to shoot the first man to cause trouble. There is intense exoito ment in the town, Mors Tim for Durrant, San Francisoo, April 20. Judge Murphy today granted another stay of execution in the Durrant case, this time until May 7. All parties are not agreed upon the proposed amendments to tbe bill of exceptions, and conse quently tbat document is not ready for settling. A Judge Convicted of Kmbelslement, San Farncisoo, April 20. James D. Hage, ex-district attonrey of San Fran oisoo, and before tbat a justioe of the peaoe in this city, was today convicted of embezzlement by a jury in Judge Wallace's oonrt prominent Railroad Man Dies. Dayton, O., April 21. Erville B. (jishop, a prominent railroad man and past commander of tne eKnlgbts Tem plar of Indiana, died of apoplexy at his horns in this city today. Tbe national arbitration conference will bold a two days' session in Wash tnton, D. C, during the coming week. Between 800 and 400 written accept ances of tbe invitations to attend tbe Opnferenoe bave been received from governors of states, jugdea, publicists, lawyers, leading business men, minis ters of religion, philanthropists, educa tors and other eminent Christians. They represent in all thirty-eight states. PORTLAND MARKETS. Strawberries have been quite plenti ful the past week at 20o per pound, but tbe weather or some other cause seemed to check the demand, and, though in fair condition, they found but little sale. Eggs are gutting scarcer and the price is rising, selling all tbe way from 11 to 12,'n'o, with an nusatisfled demand in some quarters.
