A Stoical Sheep M an.
M. Thorburn, one of Kingsley's sheep
raisers, was in town this morning.
He states that he has not done any
shearing yet, preferring, as long as the
ow price of wool continues, to save stor-
ge charges by making the sheep carry
their own fleeces. He is not in the
least discouraged over the present con
dition of affairs. Having been iu the
sheep business for forty years in Scot
land, Australia, New Zealand and the
United States, he has grown used to ups
and downs and takes them with a phil-
sophical ease born of long experience.
s an example of fluctuation in the
sheep industry he cites the year 1878,
when he says wool was down to a bit in
the spring and in the fall of the same
year reached 37 cents.
Arrived Prom Austria.
Wenzl Gschwendner arrived today
from Fischlham, Ober Austria, and is at
the Skibbe hotel. He is the brother of
the unfortunate man who, was killed
near Dufur several weeks ago, and who it
will be remembered, was stated as hav
ing sent $100 just previous to his death
to his brother in Austria to use for pass
age money to the United States. This
brother, Wenzl, is the one referred to
who is now at the Skibbe hotel. He was
ignorant of the fate of the brother, and
to Mr. Skibbe fell the unpleasant duty
of informing him of the fact. The living
brother was totally unprepared for the
intelligence and the news fell likea blow.
He has not stated what are his plans,
but will probably stay here for a time.

A BLIND GRADUATE.
Miss Minnie Anderson In Ronto to Her
Home In Fulda. Wash.
Miss Minnie Anderson is the name of
a blind lady who is stopping at the Col
umbia house today, and hearing that
she was a graduate of the blind acad
emy at Vinton, Ohio, a reporter of the
Chronicle sought an interview. Miss
Anderson was found to be a very pleas
ant young lany of about 25 years of age.
She was simply attired in a black dress,
and over her closed eyelids wore a pair
of colored glasses. She was quite will
ing to enlighten the reporter upon the
subject ef her education by the Vinton
academy.
This institution she has attended
since she was 14 years old. There are
now over 1,000 students, who are taught
as thorough an education as can be
gained in any of our common schools.
In mathematics, for instance, the course
includes geometry. The aim of the
academy is to fit students for society, as
well as to earn their own livelihood.
The girls are taught to sew, both by
hand and machine, crocheting, knitting,
all kinds of bead work, making ham
mocks and mattresses, weaving carpets,
etc. The bovs are taught to make
brooms -and the output equals that of
their more fortunate competitors. The
course complete from the a b c's re
quires twelve years, and not so many
hours a day are employed as in the com
mon schools, ithe afternoon being de
voted to music and the various work de
partments. The kindergarten is a very interesting
department. The little children are
taught the shape of objects by moulding
them from clay, and they soon tell how
to distinguish them by touch and be
come quite adept themselves in mould
ing the figures. Their first mathemat
ical lessons are taught by blocks, and
geography by clay moulded in the shape
of mountains, valleys, plains and rivers.
For the last year Miss Anderson has
been an inmate of the Knoxville, Ohio,
bpme for the blind, at which institution
she has done such work as sweeping,
scrubbing, cooking and general house
keeping. Her father and brother live
at Fulda, Klickitat county, Wash., to
which point she is now en route.

Anti-Cigarette Law Unconstitutional.
Juige Hanford, of the United States
circuit court, rendered a decision de
claring the anti-cigarette law unconsti
tutional. In his decision the court says :
"The said law of the state of Washing
ton, prohibiting the sale of cigarettes,
and referred to in the petition, is in
contravention of article 1 of section 8 of
the constitution of the United States,
and null and void in so far as it pro
hibits or attempts to prohibit the selling
giving or furnishing to any one by the
importer of, etc."

Dr. M. J. Davis is a prominent physi
cian of Lewis, Cass county, Iowa, and
has been actively engaged in the practice
of medicine at that place for the past
thirty-five years. On the 26th of May,
while in Des Moines en route to Chicago,
he was suddenly taken with an attack of
diarrhoea. Having sold Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
for the past seventeen years, and know
ing its reliability, he procured a 25 cent
bottle, two doses ot which completely
cured him. The excitement and change
of water and diet incident to traveling
often produce a diarrhoea. Every one
should procure a bottle of this Remedy
before leaving home. For sale by
Blakeley & Houghton, druggists.
