si THE CORVALLIS GAZETTEj FRIDAY,' ilAtlCtt S, lS9i. Highest of ali in Leavening Power. ABSOHTEDf PV Thought They Had Found Mine. a Gold Professor McAllister, the prestidigi tatcur and ventriloquist, happened to be traveling across lower Idaho some years ago, on his way from one town to another, savs the St Louis Globe Vemocrat. It was in the days of early stage-coaching, before railroads were lauiodiis veie quite so pienriiui as time. The urofessor, one afternoon before the show commenced, in wan dering about the streets of, I think it was Lewiston, encountered on the out skirts of the town a small band of In dians. Two or three companions were with him. While chatting together, looking about, and1 observing things generally, McAllister became quite fa miliar with a mongrel dog owned by the redskins, whom he proceeded to pet nonchalantly. "Fine dog," said the professor. "Ugh!" grunted the buck. "How much you sell him for?" ask ed the magician. Ugh! $2," replied the buck, hold ing up apairof dirty lingers to indicate the amount. "Him very fine dog," said the pro fessor, stroking the cur's back and tak ing a gold-piece from his nose. "Hi, hi!" exclaimed the redskin, looking on in astonishment, his eyes ready to start from his head in excite ment. "Him very fine dog. indeed," quiet ly continued the professor, this time taking a whole handful of coin from the dog's nose, ears and mouth, which he transferred to his pockets. Strange noises were heard proceed ing from the interior of the brute. He groa-ned and laughed and howled and barked, at all of which the poor delud- ed iv aixt : life :V;:i' pj-; asio. ; Uk: stood 111 tii! hiii'-nt, and cc awe "! for the !! t fme ! ; was A i;-r . t.iScinjr the i in'ace. i-;ies be isi! poor, deopeii. i ; onien '. and it the only ribs of I" pn.r.-:-,,,-He :.:t.'i t:-i fore tin! la .-e;i i- j... e ii'ii !'.:; i d sipoii doom i.l :i:mii:i: ;!:;! ill! iiimw i, Like the jron-sts that la'-d l,: egg. th-Ti! was nolii:ii;X insidi was on'. j fair to presume that reward was a tine feast upon roast dog. done to a turn. Cows in Finland. To anyone who could be satisfied with an" unvarying diet, of lish and black bread, accompanied by the best cream and butter that van be found hin wantain auv nnrt of the country, m How the cream and butter conie to be en good is n mystery to me, for assur edly the Finnish cows are the worst and most scantily "fed of tlioir kind. What cow that respected herself would be satisfied with hay soup in which the water formed so unfair a proportion to the hay? The most meager-looking hay, mixed with the dry branches of alder, simmers in a huge iron pot, and one sees the poor beasts dipping their noses into the unsavory broth and lish ing out its sod den ed contents with the evident relish of hunger. It was com plained to me by a resident in the country that eows could not be induced to look upon sawdust as the staple of their food. How far he hail seriously .made the trial I do' not know, but should he ever succeed, there will be a rich prospect for Finland in dairy f arnii ng. Murray's Magazine. A Gallant Pickpocket. A New York Fifth avenue belle went to the theatre, says Texas Sifting. On returning home after the performance she discovered thather breastpin, which was quite valuable, had been stolen. She was very sorry, for the breastpin was a present A few days after the voung lady received the following letter: The writer of these lines has the honor to In form you that ho knows where your breast pin is, and will return it cheerl'ully under certain conditions. I do not ex pect to receive reward In money, since I regrard It as exceed insrly vulgar to re ceive money from a lady whom 1 idolize as much as I do you. On the other hand, it would -be very -stupid in me to return you your breastpin without getting- some equiva lent. . , i Taking- into consideration my consuming love for you, I'll return the ornament for a single kiss from your rosy lips. . Tomorrow morning I will bo at the corner of Madison avenue and Fifty-sixth street with the missing jewelry. If you are willing to pay me my price 1 will, after pressinga kiss on the aforesaid lips, press the breastpin in your hands. No questions asked (Signed ) Osb or Your Admirers. The young lady did not know - what to do. She wanted to get her breast- -pin bark, but she did not carg to pay the price. She hif upon the idea of 'sending her servant girl in her place. " The servant girl put in an appear ance at the appointed hour and place. She was heavily veiled. ' A well- ! -dressed gentleman approached and 'asked: "Do you accept the terms?" "I do." The stranger familiarly embraced her on the European plan, and simultan eously imprinted a large three-by -seven kiss on her mouth, that caused a policeman on the next corner to start, lie thought it was a pistol shot. "Here is what I promised," he re marked, after the formality had been complied with; "but," he added, "you will lind it like the kiss, not quite what it was represented to be, as you are oniy the servant and not the mis tress," handing hersomething wrapped in paper. After he had retired, which he did Immediately, the servant examined the paper and found that it only contained small yieee of wood. U. S. Gov't Report, Aug. 17, iS8$ The Captain's Revenge. The historv of California and the West in the days of the gold, fever of '49 can never be seriously portrayed, as an element of humor, more or less grim, entered into the plans and oper ations of the pioneers. The situations at times were such that although un dertaken in all good faith and sober carnestness the ontcome was so ridic- :i" 7 " ri ' Xi.i ! OI tile liicta 1 11 LUC xd.it ajij. The pioneers of those days afford a de lightful contrast to the lugubrious "funny man" of to-day, who is pro verbially of sad and solemn aspect. whereas the frontiersmen would joke in the very face of deatli The follow ing story, which is vouched for as be- ing true, illustrates the politics of those days very well. When Portland, Oregon, boasted of only a single main street, the little stores were built with great glass show windows, which extended from the top of the OHCrstory building to the bot tom, so that all that was going on in side could be clearly seen from the street. It happened that on a certain day an election was held in the town. A sea-captain whose vessel had just come uu trom an trancisco stepped '" j"""- ...... true American independence declared that he would vote.

Tomorrow The hardy sailor, a tall, well-built man, niht some sentiuel may number his considered the advisability of "clearing: mJtUllted corpse with others on the the place out," but the counse.s of a : meadow.

Early in I the evening lie awoke, and announced! that he was going tip into the town again. Hisfailhfi;) friend accompanied him to restrain any undue exhibition of animal spirits which might be - the result of excessive use of another kind of spirits, and together they walked up the street. As they proceeded on their way the pair came upon a store where within, at a long table, sat the victors in the recent contest, feasting. The captain watched them for a minute, and as ho gased his teeth began to rub together a sure sign that his anger was rising. A small pig sauntered leisurely down the street, picking up a precarious living from the gutter, and passed the captain. Suddeuly the sail or stooped, and before his swineship could utter a squeal, a great .brawny fist closed over his snout, and another hand was under his haunches. One! two! three! (the porker, weighing full3' ninety or a hundred pounds. swunr to and fro like a pendulum) four! crash! and the pig. uttering the most frighfi.il noises, broke through the glass, landed in the center of the table, and cavorted down the board,' sweep ing the dishes before him like a whirl wind. "There!" ex4ainied the captain in a relieved voice "there, you, that's the kind of company you ought to keep!" Urtrpi:r,s M-tgazine. Curiosities of New York. Life. Here are some of the curiosities of life in New York:3 When a safe is be ing hoisted in Broadway the sidewalk is always littered with blocks, beams, and ropes, and a singularly ingenious trip-up is made by putting a d tngar sign, with long flat legs and a hinged ign-board, down on the flagging. Everybody, almost wunouu exception, looks up at the safe danghngoverhead, I so as to be ready for a flying leap when it breaks its rope. In 'consequence all : fall over the things under foot. It is a rule with the new race of Italian boot-blacks to wet their thumbs and rub the waste blacking oif the kid uppers ' of a gentleman's shoes, and then to roll down the customers's trouser legs with the fresh blacking still on the bootblack's lingers. No bootblack ever yet rolled the bottoms of a man's trousers down lirst, and rubbed the blacking off afterward. A fire in New York is always twenty blocks further away than it appears to be. and no one has" vet acknowledged being near a fire when it broke out. There are more men peddling shoe strings on the busy streets than the number who -peddle' other wares all put together, j-et it appears that the person does not live who ever bought shoe strings of these peddlers or who ever saw a peddler sell a pair. A Chinese Sne." From an advertisement in the North China He-raid, describing how the re ceipt for the "Fairy Life Pills" was obtained, it would appear that Rider Haggard's "She" once lived in China. "Ch'e-ta-jen was journeying on the Ch'ingrch'eng hill when he saw a wom an passing southward over the mountain-tops as though flying. Her age was about 30, and, in her hand was a stick, and she pursuing - an old fellow of a. hundred years. Ch'ta-jen asked the woman, Why-do you beat that old man?' She answered 'He is my grand son, for I ani 500 years old, and he 111. He will not purify himself or take his medicine, so I am beating him. - The traveler alighted from his horse, knelt down and did obeisance to her, saying. 'uive me, 1 pray, this drug that 1 may hand it down to posterity for the salva tion of : mankind. ' Hence its name. It will cure all affections of the three intestines, and deraugements of the seven emotions, constitutional debility, feebleness in moving about, dimness of vision, rheumatic pains in the loins -and knees, and cramp in the feet." The pride of Kingman County, Kan sas, is a bull that weighs 4,250 pounds. THE MYSTEROUS NCKET. tte Counted Sine, Was One hiiort, uat Fiilcd Up with, a Ijagser- As the sun went down and darkness began to creep over tue lace, oi me earth, the angry aruncij u.i and the crackle oi niusnetry was less spiteful. Tor a while the fighting on the extreme right hung on to settle the question of who should occupy the old earth-works, but at length dead silence fell upon the whole field. ! It was silence com- pared to the awful roar ot tne long afternoon, but it was silence broken by the screams and groans and prayers of wounded men by the movements of wagons and artillery by the sul dued voices of 75,000 men as they camped for the night without lire and raxiously debated the chances for the morrow. The sergeant marches off to the left at the head of half a dozen men. He drops a man at "Post No. 1" and gives him whispered instruction. It is the same at posts 2, 3, 4, etc., until the last man has been stationed. There must be vigilant, wakeful men between friends and foe while the long i , night wears away. "Post No. 6" is under a great beectt tree. Shot and shell have scarred and riven its trunk, and shot and shell have scattered and riven its thick limbs. A quarter of a century hence this tree will bear witness to the terri ble struggle of today. "Fromlhis tree to the edge of that thicket, and. the countersign, is 'Jus tice,' " whispered the sergeant, and as he passes on the picket takes up his beat. He counts as he passes them by one, two, three, four, live, six, seven, eight. What? Corpses? They are lying on the grass so near the path he travels that he can touch any of them with his foot. There are others to the right and : left, further away. It was here that the enemy charged a battery here our forces rained to preserve it. urape- , t , canister. bullet and bayonet. fmmd vit.tjlns here. Some lav as if , c1,, worn out with the tremendous autumn winds may vainly seek to rouse him from his death. N From tree to thicket and turn. From thicket to tree and turn. He must watch and listen and be on his guard, but by and by he linds time to count again. One two three four five six seven eight nine! What! He counted onry eight before! Was he mistaken, or can the dead of the battle-field creep and crawl? Six seven eight nine. Yes, there are nine. In the darkness he had made a mistake. Nine! Well, what matters one more or less corpse upon a battle-field? To the tree and turn. To the thicket aud turn. As he heads for the tree again the ninth corpse assumes a sit ting position and looks after him. A moment later it struggles up and a figure goes creeping after the picket The grass in the meadow is thick and matted. His footfalls give out no sound. Softly soft iy silent as the shadow of death creeping creeping, and now he is close upon the lone picket. There is a gleam of steel in the darkness a swift and powerful blow, and iie who was placed to watch will watch no more. Through the gaps the spies will pour if and skulk about the camp; a regi ment will be silently advaueed to the key position; the ghouls will scentplun der and creep up to rob the dead. The picket had counted: "Seven eight nine!" There is no missing corpse. The number has been made good! Detroit Free 1'rexx. Some Famous Trees. Some trees that a A connected with im portant historical events in American historv, but are not as well known as ! the Boston and Cambridge elms, the ! famous Appotomax apple tree, etc.: I The oak tree of Flushing, Long Is land, under which George Fox preach ed. The loftv cvpress tree in the Dismal Swamp, under which Washington re- Eosed one night in his young man ood. The huge French apple tree near Fort Wavne, Ind., where Little Turtle, the great Miami chief, gathered his warriors. The pine tree at Fort Edwarfl, N. Y., under which Jane JVleUrea was slain. The black walnut tree near Haver- straw on the Hudson, at which General Wavne mustered his forces at midnight, preparatory to his successful attack on fctony I'oint. The magnolia tree near Charleston, S. C. under which General Lincoln held a council of Avar previous to sur rendering the citv. The pear trees planted, respectively, by Governor Endicottof Massachusetts and Governor Stuvvesant of New York, more than two hundred years aero. . . . The Cary tree, a large and beautiful sycamore, planted in 1832 on the home stead of fhe Cary sisters. Faying Pop the Colt. About seventeen years ago a farmer named Gleason, living northeast of In dependence, one morning found one of his colts dead, and there was certain evidence tliat it had . been killed by some one. The young man supposed to have killed the coit left the country about that time, and very little was heard from him until last fall, when it was learned that he had been converted and had joined the church. A short time aro the vounsr man returned to Buchanan countv for a visit. While there he went to Mr. Gleason's farm, . and. mcetinsr that person, said: I "I believe you lost a colt several f rm ra nor. " T did " was the renlv." 'liow mucn was in wortnr was m next question. "About $80." "Will this payforit?" said the visitor.handing out iwo; "Yes. and more too," said Mr. Gleason, handing back ' The other person took the $20 and departed, starting for Nebraska that day. This is the kind of religion that is needed. Independence Iowa) Journal. SITTING BULL AND THE SND3AN WAR A Full and Authentic Life of Sit ting Bull, General Miles.
