Many people wonder why a'man like
Mr. Thurber should accept a position as
private secretary of the president. He
was one of the. ablest and most promi
nent lawyers of Detroit, and his income
was fully five to six times greater than
will be his salary. Recently Mr. Thur
ber was asked to explain his acceptance.
Without a moment's hesitancy he re
plied that he would rather leave a
record for, his children that he was
called upon to accept this office by
President Cleveland, and that "he had
-discharged his duties faithfully, than to
leave them a great fortune. This is in
deed a lofty sentiment from one who
occupies a position which is too often
not regarded of much importance. But
what is the real responsibility of a pri
vate secretary? In short, there is no
man nearer to the president than he.
There is no cabinet member that will
be so often called upon 'to lend advice,
and no friend that will know so much
about the motives of the president in
taking this and that step which may
concern the whole nation. By compari
son it might be stated that the private
secretary of Chancellor Bismarck is
commonly credited with having drawn
up. the imperial German constitution.
The president has not half the time to
personally prosider most important
phases of different grave issues, and to
a. large degree this is left to his private
secretary. Mr. Thurber, though the
name of his position may not be high
sounding, occupies a place equal to any
other in personal responsibility to his
chief under the lew administration.
Telegram.
While at intervals a religious question
arises in one or another of the Protestant
churches which threatens to disropt the
church, the Catholics are at times agi
tated as violently. A question has just
come up in New York which affects one
of the oldest customs of the church, and
which will be a great present trouble or
if not remedied, a continued annoyance.
It is in relation to celibacy of the priest
hood. In some quarters of the globe
the priests are permitted to marry, and
with their emigration to America they
come in conflict at once with the senti
ment of the church. With the arrival
of the first married priest in America
came trouble, and shortly afterward the
bishops within that diocese urged the
propaganda to do something that would
prevent the complication which would
inevitably arise, but without sufficient
success to induce them to take any ac
tion in the matter. The bishops will
now turn to Moneignore Satolli and try
to induce him to sustain the custom of
the church, even to the extent of dis
missing the married priests. As their
numbers are not few in the Oriental
part of the world, who if dismissed,
could and would do a great deal of dam
age to the church', it follows that trouble
is in store for the Catholics.
Mr. Cleveland does not propose to be
hurried in the matter of making appoint
ments, and whatever significance may
be gathered from other utterances, it is
shown that he is at least decided on this
proposition. The office-seekers now at
Washington are in fear and trembling,
and the majority dare not approach his
democratic highness. The great army
of them, with their importunities, can
not help but be a great bore, but it
would be as well for the lesser ones to
wait a little while, and give Mr. Cleve
land a chance to dispose of other more
important business and in the meantime
strengthen their fences as much as pos
sible for it is evident that the adminis.
tration is to be business throughout.
Seattle marine men say that there
are not now in commission near the
.number of steamers and towing crafts
that there were two and three veara
ago. Since the advent of the railroads,
which have cut into the business, down
Sound steamboating has not paid as it
did at one time. There was a time
when probably seventv-five or eighty
steamers and tow boats and sailing ves
sels radiated from Seattle to various

Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle has
taken possession of his office after court
esies between him and ex-Secretary Fos
ter. When he assumed charge the
treasury had on hand $1,250,000 free
gold, and a net balance of $25,600,000, of
which $11,5000,000 is in national bank
depositories, and $11,000,000 in subsid
iary coin, and $500,000 in minor coins.
Rheumatism Quickly Cared.
Three days is a very short time in
which to cure a bad case of rheumatism;
but it can be done, if the proper treat
ment is adopted, as will be seen by the
following from James Lambert, of New
Brunswick, 111 : "I was badly afflicted
with rheumatism in the hips and legs,
when I bought a bottle of Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. ' It cured me in three days.
I am all right today ; and would insist
on every one who is afflicted with that
terrible disease to use Chamberlain's
Pain Balm and get well at once." 50

A Qaeer Pair of Eyes.
1 labor under the peculiar inconven
ience of having a right eye of normal
power and. a shortsighted left eye. The
numerals on the face of a clock five
eighths of an inch high are visible
to the right eye twelve - feet distant,
but in order, to decern . them as clear
ly with my left eye I require to bring
that organ of vision as near to the
figures -as eight inches. On looking at
my gold chain banging on my breast
in daylight and with both eyes, the
chain colored yellow and toward the
left is perceivl.by the right eye. while
a steely bine -chain, another, yet. the
same, is perceived about one inch to the
right and a little higher np. By artificial
light the same phenomenon presents it
self, but the difference of color is ' not so
apparent: the yellow to the right is only
dimmer. . ; ... . .,: ,. .. , t
.Again, when a page is being read with
the. , shortsighted eye . there, .appears,,
about, an , inch to the 'left, part of the
same column, small, and the black,
under artificial light, like weak purple.
The right hand side of this ghostlike
column is lost to the . right eye, being
commingled with the larger, darker let?;
ters seen by the shorteighted .left, which;
cover it like the. more recent, writing on
a palimpsest. Middle life was reached
before the discovery was made." These
experiences must be gone through with'
intent, for objects generally being per
ceived altogether with the right eye, all
that the left seems good for is to supply
a little more light. The -perception of
the difference of color - is as good with
the one eye as the other, and the short,
sighted eye can read smaller type..

A Good Lang Exercise.
Hold head up, shoulders back and
chest out; inflate the lungs slowly
through the nose Until they are brimful;
hold until you have counted ten, with
out opening your Hp3; exhale quickly
till your lungs are as nearly empty of
the bad air as it is possible to get them;
Repeat same exercise, trying to hold the
lungs full while counting twenty. Try
it again, and see if you can hold your
breath half a minute.' Finish with three
or four deep, long drawn inspirations.

startled the clerk by requesting a fifteen

Of Interest to Merchants.
The suit of A. 8. Collins and Mrs. A. 8. Collins
against H. Herbring of this city, which was to
come before the Jury yesterday morning, was
again postponed; This suit against one of our
oldest and- best-known dry goods merchants
creates considerable comment in commercial
circles. It appears that Mr. and Mrs. A. 8. Col
lins obtained under false pretenses and promises
at the end of the year 1891, goods to the amount
of 150.80 from the defendant; but instead of pay
ing the bill, as agreed, they shortly afterwards
left the city by night and moved to California.
Last spring Mr. Herbring learned that all their
household goods, etc., were in the hands of the
sheriff of Wasco county, and consequently placed
a second attachment upon the goods held by the
sheriff. A portion of these goods were sold last
December by the sheriff of Wasco county, as no
