Morluis Nil Niri Bonum. The following lines were written on the death of an early pioneer and Indian war veteran, who died at his home near Melrose, Dec. 27th, 1896, aged 84 years: Adieu kind friend of Anld Lang' Syne, Ala?, you have lelt this worldly sphere, And at your departure we now combine To keep you ever in memory dear. To a happier place we hope yoa are (rone, Where troubled hearts are quickly healod, Beloved by the true and Holy One, To whom in recret yon often appealed. Perscrvering and inflexible was yonr will, While you stayed here so long ou the earth, Although you're enehronded cn yonder bill, Yet we're reminded of your deeds of woitb. Ever kind and just to wayfarers weak, Devoid of ostentation or proud display, That volumes to the living ones speak, "Go acd do tbou likewise," the tcript ures say. Your friends and kindred were by yonr side, When God's fiat came from heaven above, Oh! May your stricken soul pats o'er Jordan's tide, To share tbe bliss of Celestial love. H. H. Woodward. An Immense Iron and Steel Plant. Pittsburg, Jan. 11. A joint stock company of Western Pennsylvania mill- workers proposes building a great iron and steel plant at Port Angeles on Paget sound, northwest of Seattle, Wash. The plant will cover 30 acres and tbe cost will be abont $1,500,000 to $2,000,000. Work will begin in the spring. Already half of the stock has been subscribed by about 1200 stockholders in Braddock, Homestead, McKeesport, Turtle Creek. Pittsburg and Allegheny. The stock rates at 100 per share. Many Carnegie millworkers and Weiting- house employes are interested. Tbe plan was formnlttedsome months bco by George M. Nimon, a pattern- worker at tbe Edgar Thompson steel works for 12 years, and a son of G. M. Mimon, Er., master .carpenter acd pat ternmaker at these works. The board of trade and chamber of commerce of Port Angeles offered an immense bonus, which was accepted. It includes 80 racrea of land for a manufacturing site and 200 acres for a townsite, with right of way for tracks to Port Angeles wharves, which are deep enough for heavy drangbt chips, with 500 feet of wharlagp, water power and the right of way to develop the Fame. The officers of tbe company are; George M. Nimou, president; Thomas J. Mnrphy, Pittsburg, vice-president; M. E. George, Port Perrv, secretary; William B. Wcisaer, Allegheny, treas urer. The stock books will be open till April Tbe plant will employ 2G00 men and tbe stockholders will be given the prefer ence in awarding jobs, lne company has 600 acres of iron land and 1000 acres of coal land. The ore is 69 per cent iron. The plant will consist of a blast fur nace of 300 tons capacity, 30-ton open hearth furnace?, a bloom and billet mill. red mill, bar mill, wire and bail mill, sheet mill, tin plate mill, foundry, ma' chine shop, blacksmith chop and boiler shoo. Is Past Praying For. Olympia, Wash., Jan. 11. One of the most remarkable seenes ever witnessed in an American legislative body occurred in the senate daring tbe organization of that bodv today. When tbe officer3 had been elected and sworn in, Lieutenant Governor Luce called on Senator Van Patton, who is a minister, to open the fifth session with a prayer. Senator Uinebart, populist, of Whatcom, ob jected. Kinehart is an old man with gray beard and hair. In a loud and nncrv voice Rinehart cried that it was all nonsense to have prsjer in such body. 'It will not do them any good," he said, "to pray for them. It is all fatce. If these people desire prayer, let them prav for themselves. I want to object to such nonsense." Tho president was compelled to rap for order ou account of the confusion which followed, and again asked Van Patton to lead in prayer. Rinehart. ig norinz the preacher's opening words cried out : "Well, rray if yoa will, but do not in elude me in it." While divine invocation was being offered, he etodily kept his seat while tho entire body in the senate, visitors as well as members, rose and stood with bowed heads. Following the prayer, Taylor of Pierce, silver republican, asked that the secre tary be requested to sing, "Nearer, My Gctl, to Thee," and Secretary Ksbelraan complied. After the last strains had ceased, Uinehart again Arose and, iu lone of mockery, said : "Mr. President, now I move that the Salvation Army be invited to come in. President Luce was again compelled to rap for order. Then tbe business of the session continued interruption. without further Coal tar aud resin at Marsters'. BADGER AND SUCKER. The Way Illinois and Wisconsin Cam to Get Their Nicknames. "If there had been no badgers in Wisconsin," said a native of that stats, "Wisconsin wonld not be known as th Badger State, and yet it did not receive the name because badgers were there. There were very few white people ns Wisconsin territory in its early 'days, tho population being confined to the military posts, the missionary and trad ing stations, and the lead mining re gions in the-southwestern part of the territory. The miners were of two classes, men who worked the mines all the year round and men who came Bp from tho Illinois country in the spring ana worked until the fall, when they returned to their prairies and groves. The miners who were permanent dwell ers in the region didn't bother to pnt np cabins or even huts. In fact, material for such dwellings was not abundant. They simply dug holes in the sides of the hills large enough to givff then room to sleep and cook in. Nowadays those bnrrows would perhaps be called dugouts, but as they closely resembled tho subterranean homes of the badgers they wero promptly called badger boles, and tho minors who occupied them were called badgers. Any ono who cares to tramp through that psrt of Wisconsin today will come upon deep excavations in the rocks regular quarry holes bearing every evi dence of having been made long ago. And so they were. Some of them were excavated CO years ago and more. They were the vork of the lead miners wire went up from Illinois in thespringTto the mining region. They, being there only for a short season, did not mine by dig- ging shafts, as the permanent miners did, nor did they livo in burrows. They blasted tbe surface rock, making large pits by their work, seeking what was called the float lead and ore that was easily obtained near the top. They oc cupied the pits they made, as the other miners did their hillside burrows. 'Owing to the similarity of the mi grations of these quarry miners to thos af that ftmiliar fish which goes np stream ir ,bo spring and down again in tho fall, they soon became known as suckers, and their pits in the rocks wera called Mucker holes. In the course el years tho names badger and sucker came to bo applied to the entire people of Wisconsin and Illinois. Many of tea original badgers and backers became tbe leading citizens of their respective lo calities and helped make the country's history. When Wisconsin was admitted to the Union, the badger was placed oa ber coat of arms in recognition of this fact, aud it was from the miners who quarried in the rocks of Wisconsin that Illinois got her namo of the Sucker State." -New York Sun. Worth's Generosity. An anecdote of the trreat Worth's generosity has been going tho rounds. Just where the generosity comes in. however, is what I have failed to detect It was during the days of tho empire that a leader of fashion in Paris, find ing that she had overdrawn her hus band's munificent allowance, and that a great fancy ball was imminent, went to tho great man milliner and prayed him to hire her a costume. He was shocked. Such mean expe dients had never come in his line. The lady prayed. The groat man denied. Finally tho prayers of beauty prevailed. But she was to wear a costume entirely of his devising. He dressed her as the nag of Pans. The tricolor fluttered in her skirts, on her shoes, in her enameled earrings. Her hair was dressed to represent a stormy sea in which rode the famous three masted galley bearing the. arms of Paris. The lady was enraptured. The great man only charged her 1,500 francs. Tho dress was hers for one night only. PIANOS. In order to close out our stock of new and second band pianos, we will! offer them at cost.

Ou and after this date, I wish it under' stood tuat-ray terms for all undertaker's goods are cash with the order. I find it impossible to do business on a credit basis, and belive that I can do better by my patronB and myself by soiling strictly for cash. T. Benedick, Undertaker. Roseburg, Ore., April 12. 1S95.
