TUESDAY, MAR. 6, 1894 "The story has been circulated that Secretary of State Greeham, immediately after his appointment to his 'present -position, gave notice that.be would no -longer accept the pension he has been drawing since the war. The reason was stated to be that he wished to have his acts harmonize with the anti-pension views of the administration of which he is a member. Now comes an emphatic refutation of the story. The second deputy commissioner of peneione, Mr. Bell, states positively that Gresham does not intend to release his pension, nor refund any pension money that he has drawn. "He considers it an honor to be an honor to be rewarded by his govern ment for a wound received while fight ing in its defense,", concluded Mr. Bell. So it thus appears that the reports con cerning his giving np his pension are a bit of demagogic clap-trap,, intended to harmonize him with the mossback anti pension democrats. The best authorities on the tariff are not always the men who say the most about it in public, and a great many of the cleverest speeches delivered on the floor of the senate are not written by the men who deliver them. There are in deed few ready tariff debaters in the senate and the running discussion of the Wilson bill will be confined to five or six men. The other senators will guard local interests and make set speeches. The senators who will be heard most frequently are Vest, Mills, Jones, of Arkansas, McPherson and Harris on the democratic side; Aldricb, Allison, Sher man, Teller and Lodge on the republi can. Then there are Stewart on the re publican side and Call on the democratic side, who will be on their feet as fre quently as the rules of the senate per mit, chiefly because they like to talk. Senator Sherman is pre-eminently fitted to go into a tariff discussion. He has an "awkward" memory, which is of great value to the republican side in the tariff discussion. CURRENT PRESS COMMENT. Queen Lill, of Hawaii, is not the first woman that Grover Cleveland has left worse off than when be found her, if re ports ' are true. Pomeroy's Advance Thought. As a showing of what the democratic administration has done for the business of this country, the Boston wool sales ior last week were 1,485,200 pounds, "against 3,805,000 for the corresponding week of last year. This is one industry which has been especially attacked by the free trade theorists and deficiency makers in congress. - Judge Bartlett caused his court to take its rightful place as the conservator of .justice by his imposition of a six-years' sentence on John Y. McKane, convicted of election frauds. Judge Bartlett re marked, before sentencing him, that his crime was "a serions one, and one that demands an emphatic sentence; the penalty should be so severe as to express due condemnation, while not so severe as toexpreES sympathy." Every honest citizen will applaud this sentiment, and and indorse the sentence. ' O. W. O. Hardman, Sheriff of Tyrel Co., W. Va., appreciates a good thing and does not hesitate to say so. He was almost prostrated with a cold when he procured a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. He says : "It gave me prompt relief. I find it to be an invalu able remedy for coughs and colds."

That Rodent Barrows His Way to an Im - prisoneoMixie Surveyor. In This Mmn ,ner Supplying; Him with the , Needed Air. . "You were asking about that stuffed rat in my room," said Prof. Churchill, the mining expert, to a New York Sun man. "The story concerns an expe rience that made jny hair curl. I was once retained to report upon the work ings of a mine called the Little Whoop Up, in southern Arizona. On an ad joining claim was another mine called the Atlas. A dispute arose. The Atlas people claimed that the lower tunnel of the Whoop Up had been bored into their ground and a half million in ore taken out. The first thing to do was to make a survey of the Whoop Up, and, of course, the Whoop Up peo ple objected. Finally an order for the survey was secured from the court and Dr. John R. Parks and I were sent to make the survey. There are tricks in all trades, and the Whoop Up superin tendent knew a few. When we reached the mise he said the tunnel weJ wished to explore was in a dang'erous condition. There had been a cave, the timbers were rotten, and so on. It meant a ten to one chance that we would be crushed if we tried it. Of course, we classed him as a liar, though he turned out to be right. "We worked our way in the tunnel until wc ran against a jam of fallen timbers which were sound and were plainly arranged to stop our progress. Parks went back for an ax, while I worked at the roof with a pick to dis lodpe the center pieces. I succeeded and had climbed " half way over into the other side of the tunnel when there came a terrific crash of loose ore from the roof. It fell on both sides of the timbers, pinning me in a hole which would have been a grave right there but for a few sticks which held the mass of ore above. The place was barely large enough to move in, and I knew it was certain death in a few hours unless Parks could dig me out. Even then I believed I was gone,' for i did not know how much ore had fallen. In a few minutes .the air got heavy, and my eyes began to feel drowsy, and it seemed like the roof and sides of the hole were closing it . on me. This op pression and drowsiness increased until I was forced to hammer the sides of the place with my fists and head to keep awake.' Still not a sound could I haar from - the outside, and only the slow crumbling of ore from above. The foul air was getting into my brain, and I think I was actually insane with the fearful dread of being buried alive. Anyhow, I remember of -dropping to the floor of the hole, and giving a few faint shouts which echoed back into my ears.- I had given up all hope, and was almost swooning when I heard a strangle scraping sound above me. I yelled, but received no answer, and then I threw my body against the walls and tried to pick out the ore from be tween the lodged timbers. Still came the queer, scraping noise which seemed to come nearer and nearer and sounded not unlike the steady grinding of a' saw. It seemed to last for hours, though it could hardly have been a minute after when a bit of earth dropped to my feet from the upper end of the wall, and along with it came a big frray mine rat, who saved my life, for he had left a clear hole for his trail, and through it came a breath of fresh air that gave life to me. The fellow had bored his way from the shaft side of the cave. I stayed there two hours after that, until Parks found the cave, got help, 'and got me out without breaking the air hole. I '.caught the gray rat, too, and kept him well fed until he died, and wouldn't ttike a lot of money for his skin now. " ' wf!j NAPOLEON WAS IN SING SING. Locked Up by a Keeper While on m Visit of Inspection in 1K37. . It is not .generally known to the world at large, says the New York Times, that Emperor Napoleon III. of France was once behind the bars in Sing Sing prison. In the spring of 1837 Prince Louis Napoleon, afterward Napoleon III., emperor of France, made a visit to Washington Irving at Sunny side, a little north of Irvington-on-the-Hudson, accompanied by a young French count,' and escorted by Anthony Constant, of Hastings. Prince Napo leon expressed a desire to visit the prison at Sing Sing, and Mr. Constant drove him there7; Upon arriving at the prison the party was welcomed by War den Rowel,- who, after taking them into his apartments, explained the means that had been attended with the most successful and beneficial re sults in the government of the prison. The warden told the prince, who had been an interested listener, that he had a convict in the prison, a French man, who was an old soldier, claiming? to have fought at Waterloo and to have been in several battles with Napoleon, the first emperor. . The prince natural ly asked to see the man. The. warden then explained that the prisoner was in a dark cell for misconduct; that it was contrary to prison rules . io take him out, but as the guests were going to visit the cells ' he would open the door of the Frenchman's cell. ' Then all followed the warden down the stairs and across the keyroom and th narrow passasres to the sralleries. where the cells were and are to this day. He paused at the second cell on th right hand tier of the main gal leries and unlocked and opened the door: Jjouis JNapoleon stepped inside. The warden, with a merry twinkle in his eye, turned the key and locked him in. It was too pood an opportunity- to be lost. The gentlemen were amused and brimming over with fun, when after a momentary detention,7 the door was opened and the noble Frenchman joxned them once more. They all en joyed the joke except the subject of it. His sallow "countenance reddened per ceptibly .for a time and then ha joined .in the laugh raised at his expense. Endersby Jottings.

School meeting today. ; - Mr. Bingham of Dufur delivered a valuable eermon at the Grange hall yes terday. - Farmers are still waiting for dryer weather to finish their epring plowing, as the soil is damper to a greater depth than for many years. There is a series of revival meetings to be held at the ' Lower 8-Mile school house during the week under the able leadershipof Rev. J. W. Jenkins of The Dalles.' Mr. Bonny, of Wamic will re lieve Mr. Jenkins upon the former's ar rival Friday. ' W. A. Burt Campbell and Allen Fligg of Endersby have just returned from the mountains where they have been look ing after the former's traps. They re port many encounters with the wild denizens of the woods that were found ensnared in the trap. The region of Badger Lake is very mountainous, con sequently they encountered difficult traveling, which was made much worse by the depth of some seven feet of snow. The enow shoes that they $ook with them proved valuable, as otherwise traveling would be impossible. Burt captured a huge beaver in this vicinity a few days ago that tipped the scales at some fifty pounds. - This-is the largest specimen of the beaver family that has been known to be captured in this neighborhood up to date.

Take one of these little pellets for a corrective or gentle laxative--three for a cathartic. They are the smallest, - easiest to take, pleasantest and most natural in the way they act. They do permanent good. Constipation, Indigestion, Bilious At tacks, Sick or Bilious Headache, and all derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels are prevented, relieved and cured. They're guaranteed to give sat isfaction in every case or your money is returned. ' The worst cases of Chronic Catarrh in the Head yield to Dr. Sage's Catairh Remedy.

Plants for Damp Ground People who are unfortunate enough to live in damp houses, particularly near undrained land, are apt to think that there is no help ' for them save in removal. ; They are mistaken. Suc cessful experiments have shown that it is quite possible to materially im prove the atmosphere in such neigh ' borhoods in a very simple manner by the planting- of the laurel and the sun flower. The laurel gives off an abun dance ' of ozone, while the' "soulful eyed" sunflower is potent in destroy ing the malarial condition. These two, if planted on the most restricted scale in a garden close to. the house, will be found to speedily increase the dryness and .salubrity of the atmos phere, and rheumatism, if. it does not entirely become a memory of the past, will be largely alleviated. Ten days loss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but ple'asant'for a man of a family to contemplate, whether he is a laboref, mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas. 0. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago-. Later in the seaeon be had a second attack. He says : "In the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considersible suc cess, I think; only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally as bad as the first but for the use of the remedy." It should be borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very Severe cold and requires precisely the earns treat ment.
