The museum of antiquities at Dres den has come into possession of an in teresting' marble relief from Rome, which represents an ancient butcher . shop, of oblong1 shape, and divided by a pillar into two equal parts.

The picture is the work of John Singleton Copley and bears the date of 1767. ' Mr. BiTBJfE-JoNES, the English artist, is engaged upon the interesting task of painting a portrait of Mr. Glad stone's youngest granddaughter, Doro thy Drew. This . little blue-eyed maiden of three years is said to re semble the grandfather startlingly.

Land of The Setting Sun Is still a mysterious and unexplored, country to many a resident of the cyclone-ridden East and the barren Rocky-mountain region, but who. though, possessed of a desire to see the great Empire 6f the Pacific, has up till now failed to muster the necessary energy to make the trip. It seems to them like a great journey, that along the way still lfciger the pitfalls and dangers of border days. But this Empire has made gigantic strides since 1849. It is not now alone the land of gold and glorious sunsets, but a stretch of country given to mellow fruitfulness comprising all products from the luscious fig and orange of the tropics to the mammoth red apples of colder climes. Wasco . County, Oregon. There is still thousands of acres of Government land left in Wasco county, capable of raising apples, peaches, grapes, prunes, and small fruits. Three hundred dollars clear money has been made from an acre of prunes, and $1,000 an acre from the humble strawberry. It will pay those who imagine that Uncle Sam's domain is exhausted, . to make a trip to the "golden west" and see for themselves all that , is to be known. There is no excuse for putting off this trip till a later time. An attraction is presented which of itself will pay for the trip. This is the , ' ' - California Midvvinter Fair. After taking in the Sunset City, visit Wasco County. Indian Summer is still in her glory, the thermometer still ranges in the 50's up till this writing, January Sd, and our citizens will endeavor to make your stay pleasant and profitable. x dozen Cabinet one . . -. .
