A GRANDPA.
(Caricature.)
The public school I wont to shortly
after I came to the State of Oregon
was a very largo building.
One day 1 was in my room when I
saw an old man solus across the hall.
I wondered who he could be. Pretty
soon he slopped at another room and
went in. I walked out Into the hall
so I could see hint.
On his head tie wore a ugni-iming
black cap. Me had merry blue eyes
and a von- kind face. He wore a lonu
gray mustache.
To my surprise he began to sweep
the floor. I stood and watched till he
had finished, and as he came out ho
patted me on tho cheek.
He was a handsome old man, I
thought. 1 noticed his back was
slightly bent, probably from hard
work.
1 was golnt; o the basement a day
or two later, when I met him on the
steps.
Who is that man?" I asked of a
little girl standing by.
She looked at nie a moment. "You
don't know prandpa?" she asked in
astonishment.
"He Is a man who sweeps rooms. 1
don't know what you call 'em. Why,
every boy and girl In this school
knows him," announced the girl.
"But why do you call him "Grand
pa"?" I asked.
"Oh. he has no children of his own.
nor grandchildren, so he likes nil of
us to call him that."
Just then a careless boy came up,
and asked what time it was. Grand
pa said it was time for the first bell
to ring, as he walked over and pulled
a long rope.
After that I always knew who the
children meant by "Grandpa," and I
am sure he is worthy of the name.

THE GREAT CHINESE WALL.
(Regular Theme In English.)
Chl-hoanK-ti. the Emperor of China
about two hundred years before the
Christian Era, ruled very well for a
while and came to be regarded as a
great man by all the people. Ilefore
his reign had progressed very far,
however, the Tartars, as well as other
small tribes from, the North, began
making Invasions Into China.
Every Tartar was a born soldier
and, as their fighting ability was well
known to the yellow race. It. there
fore, caused much fear for the Chi
nese. Emperor Chlhoang-tl, having en
gaged In warfare all his life, was
heartily tired of It. So he went to
work and devised a scheme to keep
the Tartars and any other enemy who
might come along, out of his domains.
To carry out his scheme he collect
ed every available workman and set
them to work building a gigantic wall
along the northern frontier of his do
minions. For ten vears this labor went on be
fore it was completed In 214 B. C, and
In the Emperor's great haste to finish
the work great cruelty was Inflicted
on the workmen. He compelled ev
ery third workman In his kingdom to
work at this great wall without pay
ment. This caused the death of men
by the tens of thousands, and for that
reason the Emperor ("hl-hnang-tl's
name Is hated by the Chinese to the
present day.
This mighty wall was fifteen bund
red miles long and was regarded as
the greatest artificial structure on the
fare of the globe. It was built by
first making two outside walla of brick
twenty feet apart, the space between
being half filled up with clay and the
other half with stone and gravel. The
wall was twenty feet thick at the
base, tapering to fifteen feet at the
top, being of sufficient width for six
horsemen to ride abreast.
This great "Martial Harrier," as It
Is called, proved utterly useless for
defense, for the Tartars still rule
China, though it hnB perpetuated ItH
builder's name, for the name which
China bears is derived from tho house
to which Chi-hoang-tl belonged.
The Chinese are a very warlike race
for within the past two thousand
vears fifty rebellions have broken out,
and they have had, on an avernge, a
war every forty years since the ex
Istence of their kingdom.
The great wall, which required ten
years to build, which cost so many
llveB, and also which did no good
whatsoever, is now simply a heap of
ruins and rubbish, the weight of over

who, not having money to buy, pro

longing to Rosa Klckel, was recovered
by some of the Stafford boys after
chasing tho thief till ho was out of
wind, but they got entirely away with
the other three. We understand the
officers nf the district have taken It
In hand, and we hope they will press
the affair to the limit, and tench those
boys that they cannot steal from Staf
ford with Impunity. We have Just
got the names of those boys first
