-THE BIGGEST OF BUGS. The Elephant Beetle I the Elephant lay eec of Little Veneaoela. Venezuela is a little republic, but' be has one thing that is the biggest of its kind on earth. It is a bug the lar gest insect iu all the world. The creature is known as the., ".elephant beetle," and when full grown it weighs nearly hall a pound. To be struck in the face by j such a bug, flying at full speed, would i make a man feel as if a mule bad kicked him. This beetle, like others of its kind, both small and large, is clad in a com plete snit cf armor. This armor is made of a material far more indestructible than steel namely, chitine. Chitinc cannot bo destroyed except by certain mineral acids in other words, only the artifices of chemistry avail against it. Thus the shells of beetles that died 10, 000,000 years ago have been preserved perfectly in the rocks, so that we know today just what these insects of autiquit, looked like. In Europe giant beetles have a con siderable market value, commanding prices in proportion to their size. In Loudon there are regular auctions of in sects, and a single butterfly has been known to fetch as much as $800. A specimen of the rare and very large Go liath beetle is worth 60. This is the largest beetle of the old world, and it first became known through missionaries in the Kongo basin. Though no other insect in existence compares in bulk with the beetle from Venezuela, there are other bugs that ex ceed it in dimensions. For example, there is the Atlas silk moth, which has a wing spread of nearly a foot It spins a cocoon, the silk of which is better and stronger than that of the ordinary silk worm. But unfortunately it cannot be reeled. The department of agriculture tried for years to discover a way of reel ing it, but without success. Moths of this species often alight on ships in the Indian ccean. There is a butterfly of the Malay pen insula and Malayan archipelago which has a spread of ten inches. In India and tropical Africa are found giant forms of those remarkable insects known as "walking sticks," which look like twigs of trees. Some of them measure 18 inch es in length. They are related to grass hoppers and katydids. In tropical Amer ica are found certain huge species of bugs that are closely related to the fa miliar electric light bugs of this coun try. Like the latter, which have been popularly known only since the intro duction of the electric light, they fly at night, living during the day at the bot tom of ponds. St. Louis Star. Abigail. The term "abigail, " as applied to la dies' maids, originated from the Chris tian name 'of Mrs. Masham, better known as Abigail Masham, at first a waiting maid upon Queen Anna and at last the intriguing favorite who sup planted the Duchess of Marlborough in the good graces of that sovereign. Conleur de Bote. There is a story told of an English woman whose husband was in politics, and who was in consequence obliged to entertain numerous people . in whom she not only felt no possible interest, but many of whom were absolutely dis tasteful to her. It was exceedingly try ing at times, this being forced to wel come unwelcome visitors with a show of cordiality, but a subtle plan of re venge, which would at the same time afford her amusement, finally occurred to her. . At the next large dinner that she and her husband gave the room was lighted by little electric lights with colored globes, which were suspended from the ceiling and hung above the ta ble in a big circle. Upon such of the guests as had been the lady's choice a soft, rosy light was cast, making men and women alike appear at their best, while here and there ghastly green rays fell upon some unfortunate constituent of her husband who was too much im pressed by the magnificence of the feast to have any thought for his or her ap pearance.

DE.tF.SESS CANNOT BE CURED By local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the tustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed vou have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear ing, and when it is entirely closed, deafness Is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine eases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which Is nothing but an inflamed condition oi the mucous surfaces. We will Rive One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that can not be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars; tree. F. J.

Gladness Comes X 7ith a better understanding of the transient nature of the many phys ical ills, which vanish before proper ef fortsgentle efforts pleasant efforts rishtlv directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, syrup oi nigs, prompt ly removes. That is why it is the only remedy with mill ions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene ficial effects, to note when yon pur chase, that yon have the genuine arti cle, which is manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. If in the enjoyment of good health, and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with, any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of t igs stands highest and Is most largely fcjed and gives most general satisfaction.

HEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST from All the Cities and Town, of tha Thriving Biater 8 tat.. Oregon. The Foster & MoDonald mine, in Sold Guloh mining district, was bonded to Crook county capitalists last week. Plenty of trout oan be caught on Coos river, by using salmon eggs for bait, but fly fishing in that river ii over for the season. The North End Mill Company, of Coos bay, has discontinued rafting logs from the Coqnille, and is now shipping them over the railroad. The contract for constructing the dikes, etc., in Tillamook harbor, has been awarded to Contractor Jaoobson, who had the contract at Bandon last year. The extention of the Sumpter valley railrcad to the town of Sumpter was celebrated by a ball and pionio, and by ihe shipment of -concentrates and ores that bad been aooumnlating tor two months. Foss, Guthrie & Co. shipped from Baker City a trainload of 490 cattle. Nearly all of the cattle were bought from Powder Valley stockownera, The prices were: Cows, $16; twos, (18; threes, $23 and $24. Some of the hopgrowers in Washing ton oounty are storing crops in the Masonio building in Laurel, where the hops will be kept until sold. Seven and a half cents has been offered for hops in Hillsboro. The chinook run of salmon in the Siuslaw this year has been fairly good, but it is about over. The big run of silverside salmon has not yet entered the river, although it baa been daily expected for the last ten days. Mrs. J. T. Vincent, who has 'a gar den in the south part ot Toledo, olaima to have raised the largest pumpkin ot the season. The pumpkin is five feet six inches by five feet one inoh in oir cumferenoe, and is still growing. Eight men, including the millers, were thrown out of employment by the burning of the Weston flouring mills. The mill lacked 800 barrels ot completing a 1000-barrel order for the China trade. It had just received a telegram asking terms on 1,000 more barrels. Messrs. May & Semlers, of Harris- burg, during the week preceding the 20th inst.i shipped 15,000 bushels of wheat from their warehouse on the railroad. The object was to save their customers the advantage of the 8-oent rate whioh went out ot effect on that date, the rate now being twelve oents per hundred. O. W. Wright and Chalres Colling are petting up a sawmill at the foot of the mountain, on the Low Pass road, in Lane oounty. The mill will run by water power, and is to be in running order by the 15th ot Deoember. They now have ten men at work. Orders for 100,000 feet of lumber have been received already. Washington. A theater is being bnilt in New Whatcom that will be able to seat 1,000 persons. coiiax ooliege has made arrange ments to publish a monthly paper, an eight-page sheet The oity tax levy in Olympia fir the ensuing year will be 10 4 mills. Last year the levy was 12 mills. Olympia sportsmen will take steps to prevent the trapping of quail, contrary to law, by men and boys in Thnrston county. The entire collection of coins whioh was stolen from the Ferry museum in Tacoma a lew weeks ago, baa been re covered. A levy of three and one-fourth mills has been made by the school board of Tacoma for school purposes. The levy will provide $80,100. The Eerrick Canning Company, of Aberdeen, has pnt up 150,000 cases of salmon this season, and expects to pnt np about 4,000 more. Very few bops have been sold in Puyallup thus far, only those that have been contracted for having been de livered. Growers seem to think they will get more by holding on. In order to cut down expenses, Olym pia has entirely abolished the use of street lights. Several citizens have, however, subscribed a fund for the illumination of thoroughfares near their residencies. The loggers and mill men who have camps on the small streams flowing into the Snohomish river are anxiously waiting for ram. These streams are now ao low that logs or boats cannot be floated to the mills. A bullet came flying through the window of J. B. Miller's kitchen, in Whatcom, the other day, and struck Mrs. Fred Hamburg, who was at work there, on a finger. The ball had spent its force and did not injure her. The receiver of the Traders', bank of Tacoma, made a showing of his trust before Judge Stalloup last week. The cause of the case being brought np was to get a ruling of the court as to whether the assets now on hand should be sold and the stockholders assessed to pay the balanoe of the liabilities or let the matter rest awhile. The stock holders have virtually agreed to the former plan, and if the court allows them to oarry it out the assesssment will surely be made before Deoember 1, 1896. A visitor on the Sound is interested in the lumber trade with Delagoa bay, Africa, says that during the next twleve months between 60,000,000 and 70,000,000 feet of lumber will be re quired to supply the visible demands of the country tributary to Delagoa bay alone, and the whole will have to be supplied by Oregon and Washington mills. This amount of lumber would load about thirty large ships. The salmon fishermen on the Snoho mish river are patiently waiting for the fish commissioner to oome and ar rest them tor fishing with nets in the river, contrary to the law. A MINISTER ACQUITTED. End of a Sensational Trial necticut. la Con. New Haven, Conn., Nov. 8. The murder case igiiuet Rev. II. H. Hay- den has been dismissed in the court. It reoalls one of the most sensational trials in the history of the Connecticut orimiual court. The trial took plaoe in 187H, and was probably as widely discussed as any trial that has taken place in the oountry. September 1, 1878, Mary Stannard, who bad been employed as a domestia in Hoyden's house, went to her home and sent a letter back informing Hay den she would soon be a mother, oharg- iug him with the responsibility for her ooudition. On the following day shn returned to North Madison and visited Haydm'a bouse several times, fin-ill? telling her sister that he had promised to buy her medicine. Next day Hay den loft home, telling his wife he wai going to Dutham, and about nom hi appeared at the home of Miss Stan nard's sister. Late in the afternoon her body was founn. ' An autopsy wai held, and sixty grains of arsenio fonn I in her stomach, unabsorbed. Hayden was arrested but denied all knowledge of the murder or any re lations with the girl. The trial had many sensational feautres. The strongest point in the defense was made by the mixing up of experts on two kinds of arsenic The jury was taken on a special train to view the scene ot the murder and when their decision was given they stood eleven to one for acquittal. A Narrow Escape. Spokane, Nov. 8. Mrs. Hendricks, wife of Wood Hendricks, residing at 2174 Front avenue, had a narrow es cape from being killed this morning, as a result of the oareless blasting that has been going on for some time, at the site ot the Northern Paoifio oarshops. She had but a moment before arisen from a chair upon whioh she was sit ting, in the front room ot the house, when suddenly there oame a orash of breaking timber and lath, followed by a fall ot plaster from all over the room, and a piece of rock weighing about twenty pounds fell to the floor just where she had been sitting. Upon in vestigation, it was found that the mis sle had been thrown into the air from a blast set off by Contraotor Bennett's men at the site of the work now going on at the shops and oarried forty rods, when it came crashing through the root ot Hendricks' house. From numerous oomplainti made, the police have several times notified Contractor Bennett that he must be more oareful in blasting at that point. Only two weeks ago all the front teeth of a tinner by the name of Brown, who was at work on the roof of the new roundhouse, were knocked out and bis face lacerated by being struck by a pieoe of rock thrown by a blast. In view of this last tieoe of carelessness, Chief Hawthorn says he will take steps to effectually put a stop to the reckless risking ot human life. Advice to Spain, London, Nov. 8. The Globe, in an editorial tonight, says that should the insurrection last much longer, Spajn would not lose much by quitting its hold of Cuba. With the island's two staple industries almost ruined past mending, the termination of the tebel lion must endow Spain with a verita ble white elephant. For a long time afterward Bhe would have to maintain an army of occupation to prevent an other uprising, and, as the revenue re ceipts would be next to nothing, the Madrid treasury would have to find the money. In the presence of this dismal prospect, the Globe opines that the Spanish people would do well to con sider the question whether Cuba is worth retaining. If it is, Spain should use all possible dispatch in accomplish ing its pacification, either by conces sion or conquest A Dangerous Pastime Indianapolis, Nov. 2. The secretary of the state board of health has a oase reported from Columbus, where a man persisted in kissing his sweetheart who is alarmingly ill with diphtheria, by which be also contracted the disease. The secretary therefore wants to inter dict all kissing, concerning which he says: "I am oonlvnced of the difficulty the health board will meet in trying to taboo kissing among sweehearts, Al though a most, dangerons pastime, there seems to be an inherent tendenoy to indulge in it, and we have little hope of ever being able to do away with it. I may have to reoommend a disinfectant.' All that will be neoes- eary will be to rinse the teeth welL with it and rub it well on the lips. That would insure against the dangers resulting from oeoulation." Distr Ineroaslna In Constantinople. London, Nov. 8. A dispatch to the Daily Mail from Constantinople says: "It is rumored that the Armenians have deoided to .poison the water sup ply, and the authorities are taking rig id precautions. Panics are of daily occurrence. The masses regard the in crease in the price of bread as a sign of the approaoh of war. The bitterest strife exists amonggthe ministers in the Yildiz kiosk. There are rumors of arrests of ministers and officials. The sultan's only supporters now here are Hassan Pasha and Rifat Pasha." This Time It Ie Hope. Salem, Or., Nov. 2. Dr. M. S. Skiff today delivered 20,000 pounds of hops that had been oontraoted at 18 oents. An offer of 1 1 oents was today refused by a Salem grower. This is the high est offer made this year.

The oolor ot my oheeks show life and animation." So spoke Mrs. llailix, wife of Rev. E. Hadlx, ot Placerville, California, and "what has produoed this wonder ful change from alomst death to health ful, ao' ve life?" "Well, I will tell you it was Pink Pi'.'s for Pale People. You will remem ber that for years I walked the streets a living skeleton emaciated wean, and a oomplete wreok. My flesh oolor less, my nerves unstrung. I had no blood. If my flesh was punctured, a thin pink stain was all that oould be produced. My physicians said there was no hope for me. My friends de spaired of my reoovery. I was sent to Saoramento, where three of the most eminent physioians diagnosed my oase, but they shook their beads and said they could not help me, and they re fused to take my money as they ooald do nr no good. "My husbaud was sent for to say the last good-bye. When I lay on my couch to rest I felt as though 1 was sinking, down, down, down. I oould not sleep, neither oould I rest When all hope from physioians was goue, I determined to try what virtue theie was in Pink Pills tor Pale People.

Stephens, another resident of Placerville, said: "I was afflicted with rheumatism for more than .twenty years, and only with the greatest diffi culty was I able to walk to my plaoe ot business, my hands were so stiff and swollen that I oould icaroely hold any thing in them. When driving my team, oould not hold my whip, I saw in the San Francisoo Call that a friend of mine bad been oured of rheu matism by nsing Pink Pills. I oom menced 'using them with the result that I am oompletely oured." Mrs. J. O. Bailey was afflioted for a long time' with kidney trouble and oould not rest nights. She said: "I had heard so much about the wonders that Pink Pills performed that I con cluded to try them. I oommenoed taking them, and found immediate re lief, sleep nicely, and in every way am greatly improved." W. F. Fairohild is a drugigst doing business in Placerville. He says be has been selling Pink Pills for Pale People f jr several years, and that his customers speak very highly of them, and sales have been more than doubled within the last six months, especially since the wonderful reoovery of Mrs. Hadix, whose oase wasoonsldered hope less, and whose reoovery by the use of Pink Pills was considered almost a miraole. The reputation of these pills is fully established for doing what they promise.

This is a atory that Charles Henry Webb I dare say you've read Mr. Webb's exquisite verses In the current Harper's tells of a Western experience of his. He happened to meet an old acquaintance In San Francisco a few years ago, and as there was grand opera in the city Just then, Mr. Webb took the young daughter of his friend to hear "Faust" The girl was just out of a convent, and had never been In a thea ter In all her life before. As the curtain rose Mr. Webb handed her a pair of opera glasses. The girl looked at them for a moment Then she raised them to her dainty noee, sniffing at first one lde and then the other. "Why," she said, as she handed the lorgnette back to her companion, "yon ain't got any salts in them." Washing ton Post A Legend Spoiled. The Napoleonic legend tells how Na poleon, while Moscow was In flames, found time to draw up a decree organ izing the Theater Francis, says the Paris "Messenger." Alas the story Is not true. The French national archives have recently been overhauled, and It 'transpires that Napoleon was In Poland when he received toe decree ready to be signed. He there signed It and sent It back to Paris, but In the margin wrote the following: "To be forwarded when the army will be at Moscow. It Is His Majesty's Intention that the de cree should be dated from that town." The archives did not say whetEer the decree was sent to Moscow or not, but It was certainly not drawn up there.
