Accord ing to report Dr. Keely has just entered into a contract with the United States government to put his remedies and treatment in all national and state mili tary homes of America. It is even said that a group of English capitalists rep resenting a capitalized stock of 1,000,-' 000, has contracted for the sole use of Keely remedies in the United Kingdom. Captain J. H. I). Gray of "Astoria threatens, in case congress should fail "to make the necesttiry appropriation for -a boat railway at the dalles of the Col umbia to resurrect the boat transfer scheme that gave excuse to the enemies of a portage railway at the last legisla ture to substitute this latter scheme for a "scow." The Lord deliver Eastern Oregon from the idiocies of Captain tiray. The Captain "knows how to run a boat but that is all he does know. The quickest cure of deformity on rec ord is the case of two hump-backed pas sengers who arrived in New York from Havre. An examination of the humps by the custom house officers found them .filled with diamonds, pearls, rubies and other jewelry. The crooked were made straight by the confiscation of their humps. All objections to the appointment of Mr. Gilbert to the vacant judgeship of the ninth district by" the people of Whshington on the ground of his being An Oregon man have been set at rest by 'the discovery that Judge Gilbert has considerable landed property on the Suond. 'The records of suicides has scarcely a "parallel to the case that happened at St. Louis the other day, when Dr. Charles T. Breedlove of Baltimore, committed suicide because, as he said in a letter he left behind him, his love for a friend named Isaac Judson was beyond his con trol ai.d he found it impossible to live -without him. II. L. Rodman was. sent to the state asylum last Tuesday from Oakland, Or egon. The causes assigned for his in sanity are religion and the farmers' alliance. OUTHWE8T MEWS. - Astoria n. Recently an English tourist visited Greenland and in his valise was a big red apple. The customhouse men having never seen one before, and being unable to find anyone who had, took it for a bomb, and made the Englishman flit down and eat it. They .were quite put outwhen he didn't explode and shat ter things. There are about a thousand republi can statesmen in Oregon who, the Tele gram says, will hope that there is truth in the rumor that Dolph will be ap pointed to the supreme bench, for then there would be another United States senator to elect next winter, and each one would imagine that he might be the man. But how would Hon. Joseph Simon do? The rest of them wouldn't be in it. Notice.

' One of the most cnrwma wells in the west is on the place of Henry M. Hen derson on Oakes avenue. . This well can play on a dozen different musical in struments at the same time.' and has done it, which is an accomplishment that no human being is known to pos sess. The well is about 400 feet deep. At nearly all hours of the day or night a wind blows np from the bottom of it and whistles through the cracks in the tight board covering. . When the wind does not blow out it seems to be sucked in by the welL An abundant supply of good water is in the well at all times,, and where the wind comes from or where it goes is a mystery which Mr. Henderson has not solved. - One day not long ago Mr. Hen derson collected all the musical instru ments he . could amounting to eight from - his neighbors and. friends. He bored holes in . the boards covering the well and at one aperture placed a cornet, at ' another a' -bass horn, at another a clarionet. ' then ' a fife, an ' immense tin horn about three- yards long which he had made, a month organ and other in struments up. to the number mentioned. One. after another, they, began to blow as he put them in. ..The hoarse growl of the basH horn mingled with the clarion tones of the cornet and clarionet, etc. When all were going the; din was ter rible, and there did not seem to be a good note sounded. The wind does not come tip from the well in a steady blow, but in gusts of more or less force, and it was amusing as well as astonishing to hear the old bass and the nin foot tin tnbe snort together. Tacoma Herald. Conoanut Butter. ' '; According to a report made by the British vice consul at Berlin the produc tion of an edible fat from the marrow of the cocoanut has been carried on for the laRt two years by a firm at Manne heiui. the process having been discov ered three years before by Dn Schlinck. Factories having the same object in view are abont to be established at Paris aud at Amsterdam. The uuts come from the South Sea islands and also from certain places on the African and South American coasts. The bntter. which is sold at less than half the price of ordinary butter in Lon don, or from thirteen to fifteen cents per pound, contains from 60 to 70 per cent of fat and from 23 to 23 per cent, of or ganic matter. Its color is white and it is of an agreeable taste, is suitable for cooking purposes and is being purchased by the poor, who prefer it to margarine. Being free from acid it digests with greater ease than dairy butter, and is preferable in other ways to the bad bnt ter which too often finds its way to mar ket. It is also a more attractive com pound than the ' various preparations called margarine, some of which have very questionable origin. Ooldthwaite's Geographical Magazine. The ( of Texas Fever.. . The department.of agriculture is at present giving earnest attention to the study of animal parasites, with a view to finding' out ' methods ' for fighting against some of them which cause a loss of many millions of dollars yearly to fanners. It has made a big discovery recently in relation to the fatal disease of cattle called .Texas fever, which is caused by a minute animal called a pro tozoon that feeds on the red corpuscles in the blood and destroys them. Kecent developments of knowledge reveal the protozoa as producers of mor bid complaints, it has been ascertained that the cause of malaria is a protozoon which feeds on the. blood corpuscles, and another microscopic foe of like descrip tion is responsible for certain forms of dysentery. Undoubtedly many disor ders not now understood will eventually be referred to a similar origin. Wash ington Star. A Pathetic Story. A few Sundays ago the congregation in Old Market hail. Richmond, waited for the pastor to open the service. A woman, clad in deep' mourning, rose in a far end of the large hall and steadily pressed her way toward the stand in front of the congregation. 'The pastor saw her approaching and stepped to meet her. As he. grasped .her hand she said with faltering voice. "1 want to give yon five cents which my little boy handed me as he was dying, and said, 'Please give this to help build the Old Market church.' and." continued his sor rowing mother. "1 want yon to have it. and 1 want to pnt it in your band my self." And placing the precious coin in the pastor's hand she retraced her steps and took her place among the congrega tion.
