W. J. Harriman of Dry Hollow, called
at this office yesterday and reported that
most people in his neighborhood have
got through seeding and the prospects
for a good crop were never better. Dry
Hollow creek, that never had a drop of
water last year is now a stream six to
eight inches deep and about four feet
wide. This shows sufficiently that the
ground is full of moisture, as this creek
does not rise in the mountains and is
not fed by spring, but is simply the sur
plus seepage from the soil.
President Eliot, of Harvard university,
will be in Portland about the 20th
though that time has not bean set as
definite date, owing to the unexpected
and elaborate reception with which he
was met in California. The Harvard
men of Portland are making preparations
to give him a royal reception on his ar
rival. This gathering together of Har
vard's alumni has proven a most enjoy
able feature in - the arrangements for
welcoming their president and will
probably result in the formation of a
Harvard club in that citv.
Smith of Arlington has Donned Bis War
Paint.
Agent Alloway, of the D. P. and A. N.
company informs the Chkonicli that J,
W. Smith of Arlington, whom the Union
Pacigc lately defrauded out of (24.90
the full rates from Portland to Arlington,
on a car of salt shipped bv the people's
boats to The Dalles and thence by rail to
Arlington is going after the Union Pa
cific with a sharp stick. Mr. Smith has
taken steps to have the matter brought
before the state board of railroad commis
sioners and he says if there is any justice
left in tnejand he is going' to have it
More power to J. W.'s elbow 1 This is a
fight in the interest of the people, and
if right reigns it can have only one end
ing. The point in controversy is this
Mr. Smith can save $24.90 on. a car of
salt by shipping it by the people's boats
to The Dalles, thence by rail to Arlington
instead of by rail the whole way from
Portland. A merchant at Heppner can
likewise save $30 on a car of barbed wire.
but the Union . Pacific compells the
merchant to pay the $24.90 or $30 as the
case may be, in the form of "advance
charges." The whole thing is a bare
faced swindle as ever was attempted on
a long suffering people and the courts
will so decide if the masses have any
rights that a railroad corporation is
bound to respect.
The Husband Should Be Boss.
Judge Finletter, in charging the jury
in a case tried in common pleas court,
gave an opinion emphatically sustaining
the rights of husbands to rule their
homes.
The suit was that of John Yates
gainst Christiana F. M. Greaves,
Drought to recover damages for false
arrest and malicious prosecution. Miss
Greaves boarded in Yates' house. She
was ordered by him to leave, but Mrs.
Yates, to whom Miss Greaves paid her
board, told her to stay. - Yates subse
quently, upon coming home, quarreled
with his wife and, it is alleged, choked
her, and when Miss Greaves interfered,
it is alleged,, he threatened her. . The
next - morning Mrs. Yates went with
Miss Greaves to a magistrate's office;
where the latter "swore out a warrant
charging Yates "with threatening her
life. He was locked up, and spent the
night in" a station house.
Miss Greaves did not appear against
Yates the next day and he was dis
charged, but in her behalf it was alleged
that her nonappearance was due to a
solicitation by Yates' brother-in-law,
Who said that he couldn't get bail. After
his release Yates brought the present
suit against Miss Greaves.
Judge Finletter said that Miss Greaves
should have obeyed the direction of
Yates to leave. She had no right to re
main in the house against his wish. The
jury would therefore have to find a ver
dict for the plaintiff. In arriving at the
damages they should consider the condi
tion in life of the parties, but in finding
for the plaintiff they should not "fix
their verdict for him for a few dollars or
a few cents, making it ridiculous by the
small amount, but they should give him
such a sum as would show that in Phila
delphia every husband has the right and
must rule his own household.''
The jury after a short deliberation re
turned a verdict of $500 for the plaintiff.

A Suaka Attacks a Wagon.
The following snake story is evolved
from a Texas exchange: Thursday even
ing last while Judge A. McFarland and
his son Guy were driving homeward they
saw a large snake lying in the road. The
judge attempted to kill the euake by
crushing it with the wheel of ms gig,
but instead of "bruising the. serpent's
head" the judge's wheel passed -over its
tail. Instantly the snake coiled itself
around a spoke, and at every torn of the
swiftly revolving wheel made vicious
strikes at Guy's face. Guy's only means
of escape was a backward tumble from
the gig, which he took, falling into a
pool of dirty water. Then there was a
mad boy as well as an angry snake.
Strange to relate the snake freed itself
from the wheel and attacked Guy in the
pooL A shower of etones from Guy's
hand finished the snakes

Feminine Superstition.
The elevator in one of the big news
paper offices was filled with men. One
woman, fashionably dressed, was a pas
senger. Next her stood a hunchback
an aged man, neatly dressed and shrink
ing as far asossible out of notice. ' The
woman looked at him with, a thoughtful
air as if weighing vast possibilities. Sud
denly she leaned over and with the tip
of her white gloved finger daintily
touched the hump of her neighbor.
"What was that for?" one man asked
another in an undertone. "Don't yon
know? For luck," " was the answer.
"Touch a hunchback and bring good
fortune, is one of woman's pet supersti
tions." New York World.
