John Shrrman't Rhlc.
Sinoo Senator SluTtnan roturned from
Inn Pui'ilic coast trip the following story
Ims Wn jirinti'd in mmiy Kasti'rn
i.tpers:
Si'iiutor Shorinan cnjoycil a break,
neck riilo down Fiskiyou luountiiin on
hi.sHtaj;H journey between lveddin' and
HoKidiurft, Oregon. The Ohio Btntes
man hud pre. empti d a neat with the
driver to get a better view of the. splen
did scenery on that elevated divide.
The paw from the summit was a tear
ing one, and thn steep, narrow grade
made the. ride appear particularly ha?.
ardous. Thn Senator Kiigijested that he
could view things better at a slower
gait.
"Hot to make time," replied the
jehu, brusquely.
"I assure you that I am in no hurry
at all,'' exclaimed John, casting his
eyes down the precipitous crooked road
way. "Hut I am," retorted thn reckless
whip, as ho let thn nags out another
notch.
Sherman was scared. lie had reason
to be. Others, had been scared before
him, and more are Mire to tin' them
selves in thn Kami; ti.t. A mcment
later:
"Driver pull up; 1 just as leave in
fact, I prefer to walk down this place."
"No you don't, Senator. I've got
three minutes to reach the valley, and
I'm going to make it or break u leg."
The lively six bronco team sped reck
lessly ahead, Sli.-niiau holding on with
might and main.
Turning a sharp curve, tlei swing
pole suddenly minpped. For a few
inomenis things looked squally. A
single lurch might send the notch over
a Oil-foot precipice.
"Keep your seat," cried the jehu,
who with brake ami reins tpiickly
brought his team to a standstill.
A little, later Sherman was holding
tho lines, his foot braced on the "hold
back," while the driver was down
among the horm's splii ing the broken
swing bar.
All was in order nu'aiii f intently,
and tlie Senator, reussured as to the
entire safety of the twelve mile an
hour canter down a forty live-pitch
grade, kept his place to the bottom
vt illiout a quiver,
Thinking it over now, Sherman says
it was the most exhilarating stage ride
ho ever experienced, and he wouldn't
mind making the trip overland from
California a second time, just to take
in that interesting pie:n of star route
expediting down the Siskiyous.
The reporter of the ledger was per
mitted yesterday to look upon a won
derful midget of a girl that had come
to live in tho family of Mr. J I. S.
Owens, tho carpenter, residing on Rail
road Street, a few doors south of
Eleventh. 1 1 was 5 days old at noon
yesterday, and balanced the scab's at
just pounds. Its length from the
crown of its head to the Holes of its
feet is only 12 inches by actual meas
urement. The reporter placed his
thumb on the child's hind and it (the
hand) wag completely hid from view,
although it was stretched out to its full
length and width. In other words,
the whole of iis hand in loss in size
than the first joint of an ordinary
man's thumb. A linger ring can be
easily slipped ever its hand and up on
the arm to the elbow. Its feet and
legs are of proportionate size. It has
a wonderful growth cf hair, being ho
long 'and thick as to completely cover
the scalp of the head. To all appear,
ances the child is getting along nicely
and will make a I've of it. It is not a
particle deformed, each member of its
body being seemingly well made. This
in the sixth child ihat has been born to
these parents, and all before have been
of ordinary size, ranging in weight
from 8 to 10 pounds at the time of
birth. Tacouia Ledger.
Ve have been shown a letter from
D. Head, who purchased "Oregon
Beauty" (the mare with the long mane
and tatl) from O. P. AdaniH of Linn
county, says an Albany exchange, in
which Read savx he has had thn mare
on exhibition in San Francisco for three
weeks, and was taking in from 820 to i pressious of sorrow at the death of the
8175 per day. He says he was ottered ' great g-neral. The flags were every-j
i".)W for her by a lady, but says lid where half masted and the India mourn
would not take less than $i!O,(J00. j fully tolled, etc. '
Why Siir. Didn't Cry.
A young woman from the country
was suing her ex sweetheart for breach
of promise, and the lawyers were, as
usual, making all sorts of impiisitive
interrogations.
"You say," remarked one," "that the
defendant frequently sat very close to
you?"
"Yes, sir," was tho reply, with a
blush.
"How close?"
"Close enough ho'h one cheer was all
tho seltin' room we needed."
"And you say he put his arm around
you?"
"No, I didn't."
"What did ycu say, then?"
"I said lie' put both nrms around
me."
"Then what?"
"He hugged me."
"Very hard?"
"Yes he did. So durn hard that I
came purty near hollerin' right out
loud."
"Why didn't you holler?"
"'Caiii'e I was afeerd he'd stop.''

Ciller Tlnin Brandy.
"What will you take, madam?" said
tho soda water drug clerk.
"A little strawberry in mine' said
she,
"And you, sir?" to the husband.
"Le' me see," scanning tho row of
bottles which contained syrups, "Oh,'
yes, a little sp'iritus frumentf, if you
please."
And as they frent ofT, after drinking
their soda water, she said sof:ly:
"Oh, Oeorgf, now much Wtter that
if? than drinking nasty, horrid brandy,
an you used to do before you joined the
Murphy men, isn't it?"
And he said lie "rather guessed it
was.
Call Bcarrrn Appointed.
Tho President having been requested
by 51 rs. (irant to name thn pall bearers

pointed tho following: General Wil

It will be remembered that on? of
thn Treasury constructions of the wool
tarill' has for some time been kept a
secret so far as the general public, Ohio
wool growers and New England woolen
manufacturers were concerned. It was
neyer printed in the official rocords of
Treasury decisions. This "decision" in
now overturned, and the Secretary of
tho Treasury declares that tho lws
must be carried into effect ns they
stand. Tho unpublished decision of
September 14, lS3, is tho one of which
mention is made in the New York Her
ald of a recent date as having been
suppressed on account of its manifest
improper character, and for tho reason
that it was In contravention of the pre
vio'.is decision of a former Secretary,
and was issued without the question of
law having been submitted to tho At
torney General, as is expressly required
by the statutes. During the two years
that this order has been specially in
force at Philadelphia, the wool growers
of the country and honest importers as
well as manufacturers have been griev
ously defrauded, to sxy nothing of the
amount of revenue of which tho Gov
ernment has been deprived. Secretary
.Manning hr.s overturned this corrupt
decision.
The 0. P. Ft. R.
ft is staled on good authority that
the Oregon Pacific itailroad company,
whoso road is now completed from Ya
quina Ray to Corvallis, will extend
their road eastward this fall, their first
objective point being P.oise City. They
expect to go over on the Santiam
pass, on tho Cascade mountains, and
through tho Malheur country. TIip
preliminary survey has teen made to
the Snake river, near the mouth of thn
Malheur, and it is pronounced an easy
grade over the Cascado mountains, and
a good routo all the rest of the way.
It is talked that this end is expected
to connect with tho Chicago and North
western, who are now pushing their
road west of thn Niobrara, in Nebraska,
and will reach the Wyoming line near
Camp Robinson this year.
Thry Want Too Much.
The half dozen American steamship
lines that luve been trying for three
months to coerco the Postmaster Gen
eral into dividing up the 400,000 Con
gress placed at his disposal, really as
subsidy, but ostensibly to enable him
to get mails carried in American ships,
still hong together in their concorted
operations, and have refused to accept
thn Postmaster General's proposition,
which was that they carry the mails
for tho sfa and inland for thn total
postage on mail matter carried by them!
1 he pooled lines want a payment per
mile, which would make tho transpor
tation of ouo letter cost as much as the
transportation of a ton of letters.
She Said "Shake."
A good story is told about a Ken
tucky Congressman's pretty daughter,
who visited Washington recently. She
went up to President Cleveland upon
the occasion of a White House recep
tion and said:
"I'll bet a horse you don't know who
I am."
The President wai equal to thn oo-
casion.
"No," said he, "I don't know who'
you are; but I'll b.t a horse you are
from Kentucky."
"Shake," said the young lidy, and
she has been on good terms with thn
President ever since.
' i i
The Republican press makes a pite
ous howl against St John, who has
gone into the Ohio campaign to fight
the Republican ticket. We can't un
derstand why St. John has not got a
right to back his conviction by preach
ing prohibition, if he chooses.' Tho
fact of thn matter is simply this: St.
John cannot l lought by thn Republi
cans, He is too honorable to afliliat
with a party which has lieen buried
under the weight of its infamous sin,'
and is accordingly villitied by the un
scrupulous politicians and sulidize
press of that party.
