From the Teles ram : Coming toward Portland from San Francisco tbe otner night oa the fast train there waa a baby and it mother- All tbe passengers in this particular car were well aware oi its preeeore. The mother was . a pale-faced litt e woman with sunken eyns. tbe baby waa sick and tbe paseengers were sleepy. Only one of them, perhaps, wished it wouldn't die. This one crept out of her birth and stole down tbe aisle to tbe scene of tbe squal ling. The two women looked at each other, and the mother at once knew that tbe face that peered into ber birth was that of a friend, and tbe baby wa reiin- guisbed, its little form gathered cioee to that of the stranger and carried swiftly along the aisle to a comfortable lower ber-h. The wails cootinced for a while, but gradually grew so Iter, till they were bushed and everything was still. In tbe morning the sleeclee guardian of the child carried it back to its mother.whcm tbe found atill asleep, and who could on ly smile her gratitude when she awoke. Then the one who had done this little bit of kindoees sat down in a seat where berth had been made up till the mother arose aud came where abe wa. The lit- ie woman tried to eay something in tbe way of thanks, but was interrupted with, 1 ou need a good, warm breakfast, don t your - un, no," was the reply. " I enau do very well till we get to Sisson. when my husband will meet me, beside," and then seeing that she had let the cat oat ol the bag, she waa eileut. "ery well," said tbe other, but think we had better go into tbe dining car together. I bate to eat alone." So tbev went in, and, when one after another, the members of the Nellie Mc- Henry company arose and wondered where the star was.thev found her in the dining car. feeding little tid-bita to the pale baby and brineine smile through tbe tears that were yet hardly dry on tbe mother's face. The writer, who knows all about it, thinka this slender epsode very pretty one, quite worthy ot print. Fack from Skagway. The Oregon arrived at Portland last evening at &:'i0 o'clock. Among the pas senger was Mr. Frank Thayer and Oscar Marshall, ot this city. Mr. lhayer went up on tbe Oregon intending to do busi ness there, in fact was so anxious to go that be refused nearly double price for his ticket be ore sailing. He got all he wanted of Skagway at once. Kverv tiling ia overdone and it ia a lawless tough, commnnity,so Mr. Thayer bought a return ticket aud came right straisn back, and would bave come quicker if he could have done so. Hesara a good many of the other Albany people will be bac in a little while. A Lcbakok Ciacts The John A.

The Democrat man was made happy this morning upon receiving a copy of tbe new bock of cartoons just published ty Homer Davenport, the world's great est cartoonist. The book is a large one, tbe pages being 12x15 of elegant paper and unique cover protecting them. Tbe finest cartoons for which Davenport haa become famous then appear elegantly printed, capturing one regardless of pol itics, and like an entrancing story, hold ing the observer almost spell bound witb admiration for the genius that could pen tbem and origiuate them, until the end with Tom Reed towering over Mr. Ding ley is reached. There are artists w bo can draw, iot Davenport also conceives. From tbe frontispiece, witb Reed looking at the title, and Dingley looking at Reed, past the inscription, 'To my father," the author's interview witb Senator Hen na, Uncle Sam getting his gun ready .and Uncle Sam in many odd situations in keeping witb tbe times, Mr. Hanna and President McKinley in all kinds of poses. corpnleot Tom Reed, Grover Cleveland as a mighty hooter, his English views of Gladstone, Salisbury and others, Hunt ington, Li Hang Chang. tbeG.
