THAB STEVEXS AT MBT (MJtl.
The Washington correspondent of
the Boston "Journal" gays: "The
Washington gambling houses have
never been supported to any consider
able extent by the resident population.
Members of Congress, especially from
the South, Southwest and West, were
the largest contributors to tbff incomes
of the ""omen. Contractors and
India. are generally bold and
sometih-.-s desperate players. Mem.
bers-of, the house frequently staked
the mileage and per diem at the faro
table, and they played all'sorts of
round games 'short cards,' as they
were called in the club rooms. Proba
bly the amounts risked would not con
stitute what is termed high play in
these days, but the losses of these men
of limited means were often sufficient
to keep them impoverished and em
barrassed during their entire congress
ional service. Some men flayed for
excitement chiefly; not caring much
whether they won or lost. Thaddeus
was one of this description. Ho was
like Fox, who described winning at
hazard the greatest pleasure in life,
and losing at the same game as the
next greatest. Stevens lost and won
with the same apparent indifference.
He played with consummate coolness,
never lost his temper, and never in
creased the amount of his bet, either
to retrieve his Josses or more rapidly
increase his winnings. His sarcastic
remarks upon the discomposures of
his fellow-players, who sometimes ex
claimed with rage and profanity at
their ill- luck, were always witty as
well as cutting. While they were
eating and drinking with the voracity
of cormorants, he never indulged in
anything fnore stimulating than a
cracker and sip of water. The con
trast between his coolness and apathy
and the eager, fierce statement of
others siting at the same table and en
gaged in the same pursuit, was amazing.
I have rarely seen a more ratable and
piinful exhibition than was often pre
btnted by the ungoverned passions of
a gamester after a run of ill luck. To
Mr. Stevens such displays of weakness
seemed to afford amusement rather
than to excite sympathy or compassion.
He was a hard, cynical man, capable
of acts of benevolence under strong
emotion, lut gentleness or tenderness
was not his ordinady mood. He threw
off" more good things in conversation,
without efiort than any man I ever
saw, and his sayings were pointed
with a degree of epigramic force that I
never witnessed in any other man.
A few years ago two boys of the
name of John Smith were sent to the
same school where the pupils had
learned that "a rose by any other
name would smell as .sweet." Hence
they were more prodgial than par
ticular in conferring new names upon
each other, but the twin name of
"John Smith" for a time staggered
them. At last, however, they dis
covered that one of the young gentle
man was the son of an auctioneer and
the other the son of a waiter, so the
former was at once dubbed Going
Smith and the latter Coming Smith,
names by which they are still distin
guished. Strange as it may seem, says the
"Germamown Telegraph," after all
our experimenting with wood and tile
draining material, we are likely to
come back to wooden drains of tome
sort under certain circumstances.
They are pronounced on good authority
to be superior to, as they are far
cheaper than tile drains, where the
wood is subjected to the vapor of car
bolic acid. But even without this
preparation wooden water pipes made
in the best manner, it is claimed, will
last two or three generations under
ground.
Of James Laughlin, since 1853 a
resident of Southern Oregon, who
died recently at the age of 96 years,
tho Aihland "Tidings" says: "His
life spanned the whole history of the
government of the United States of
America. When a boy be shook
hands with Washincton, the first presi
dent, in Philadelphia, and three yeais
ago, when President Hayes passed
through Ashland, TJncle Jimmy was
introduced to him as a citizen who at
that time could say he had taken by
tho hand both the first and th last
proidnt.ef,tp UniUd. States.
A Description of a Cowbot. A
genuine cowboy is woTtb describing.
Ha endures hardships that would take
the lives of most men, and is, there
fore, a physical type of manhood. He
is the finest horseman in the world,
and excels in all the rude sports of the
field. JHe aims to be a dead Bhot, and
universally is. Constantly during the
herding season he rides seventy miles
a day, and a majority of the year
sleeps in the open air. His life is in
the saddle- makes him worship his
horse, and it, with a rifle and six
shooter, complete his happiness. Of
vice in the ordinary sense he knows
nothing. He is a rough, uncouth,
brave and generous creature, who never
lies or cheats. It is a mistake to
imagine they are a dangerous set.
Anyone is as safe with them as with
any people in the world unless he
steals a horse or is hunting for a fight.
In tbeir eyes death is mild punish
ment for horsestealing. Indeed it is
the highest crime known to the un
written law of the ranch. Their life,
habits, education and necessities breed
this feeling in them. But with all
this disregard of human life there are
less murders and cut-throats graduated
from the cowboys than from among
the better educated classes of the East
who come out here for venture or gain.
They delight in appearing rougher thun
they are. To a tender-foot, as they
call an Eastern man, they love to tell
blood-curdling stories and impress him
with the dangers of the frontier. But
no man need get in a quarrel with
them unless he seeks it, or get harmed
unless he commits some crime. They
very often own an interest in a herd
they are watching, and very frequently
become owners of ranches. The slang
of the range they always use to per
fection, and in season or out of season.
Unless you want to insult them, never
offer a cowboy pay for any little kind
ness he has done or for a share of his
rude meal. If tho changes that are
coming to stock-raising should take the
cowboy from tho ranch a most interest
ing feature will he gone.
Banalns a Gauntlet r Fir.
The passenger train on the Northern
Pacific railroad bound for this city last
Wednesday, was delayed by fire near
the track this hide of Heron. After a
little prospecting the train was put
through the burning furnace in safety.
The Sprague Herald has the following
account: "The woods are ablaze for
miles in that region, and on this oc
casion the ricks of wood lying near the
track were burning and so hot that it
was thought dangerous to pull through
in consequence of tho great heat dis
locating the rails, Supt, Griffin with
his usual promptness first ran the
gauntlet of fire, and reported it safe to
proceed with the train. Ladd pulled
it through at a seventy mile rate of
speed without damage." O. W. Pond,
the advance agent of Rev. Henry
Ward Beecher, was a passenger on the
train, and never before having visited
the far west, was somewhat surprised
at the execution of such a daring
maneuver. In conversation with an
Oregonianrejiorterlast Monday, hesaid
it almost made his hair stand on end.
"We shut down the windows and
closed the door tight just before we
started," he continued, "but the air in
side the car was like the breath from
a furnace and the whole tiain seemed
to be on fire. The flames licked the
window glass savagely, nnd although
it lasted a few moments it is an ex
perience 1 shall never forget and never
again whh to undergo. I can't help
but think of the terrible danger we
passed through. If one rail of tho
track beneath us, having been warped
by heat had giyen away, we would
every one of us have been roasted
alive. It make sine sh udder even now."
Montgomery Blair whose death is
announced, was a Kentuckian by birth,
being born in Franklin County, in
1813. He graduated from West Point
and served in Florida under General
Scott. He settled in St. Louis
in 1839 and was Mayor of that
city in 1842, and Judge of the Court
of Common Pleas from 1843 to 1849.
He removed to Maryland in 1852.
He was in the Dred Scott case. Pres
ident Pierce made him solicitor of the
Court of Claims. In 1860 he was
President of the Maryland Republican
Convention, in 1861, he was made Post-vaster-General
by Lincoln.
The Board of Directors of the Ore
gon Transcontinental Company an
nounces tho lease to tie company' of
the Oregon and California Railroad
company, and its system of standard
gauge lines. The terms entered into
between tho companies are as follows:
The construction contract between this
company and the Oregon and Cali
fornia Company is for completion of
the latter's main lino to the California
boundary, with the option to complete
its other authorized lines on stated
terms, and the temporary lease of tho
Oregon and Califprniajystem for three
years, with tho option for its extension
to 999 years. When the cocstruction
contract went into effect about 127 of
i'ie total! 77 miles of the main line re
mained to be completed. The esti
mates of the engineers, including lib.
cral allowances for a possible under
estimate and other contingencies, call
for 64,846,291 ready mouey for this
work. Under the contract this com
pany is to receive for its first mortgage
bonds 3,670,500, and the second
mortgage bonds, $3,850,000. Con
tracts have been entered into with
leading banking firms in this countrr
and Europe for tho Bale of sufficient of
these securities to render it easy to
proviae all the funds for the completion
of the line. The assets of thn ncrn
and Transcontinental Company are
piacea at SDJ,aCG,902 81. of which
5, 081, 101 11 is stated as cash in
bank, and 3,282,312 19 as loans due

8,561,467 98 loans due by the com;.
pany, and 600,000 dividend due

A great forest fire in tho Cascades,
consuming thousands of seres of valu
able timber, and making it disagreeably
warm for tho wild animals that infest
the region, probably explains the cause
of much smoke hanging in deneo
yoluraes around the foot hills. Wo
are told that some partiss who recent
ly attempted to cross by way of the
Lebanon route, ran into the fire at a
place known as Seven Mile Hill, and
had their wagoni and goods entirely
consumed, barely escaping with their
horses nnd their own lives. Tho
parties were Uncle Johnny Stewart
and Mr. Swicb, nd their families. As
nothing short of a heavy rain or snow
storm will quench the ocean of fire,
there is no telling how long the whole
sale destruction may continue. "Pri-

A Sunday school teacher of Batavia,

point of the survey for the Chebalis

whence it runs east to Tumwater, from
there across Mina Prairie crossing
