A Suit for Divorce to Follow. '
Washington, March 17. The final
chapter of the Pollard-Brecklnridge
' trial, rumor says, will be a divorce suit.
The secret marriage of Mrs. Wing and
Representative Breckinridge t- '.- place
in New York . April 29th, is tbuvro by
the certificate of only a few days ago.
It was not until the following July that
the public marriage Was celebrated in
Louisiana. It was after the New York
ceremony that Breckinridge promised in
the presence of Chief of Police Moore- to
marry Miss Pollard. According to the
testimony Colonel Breckinridge contin
ued, his relations with Miss Pollard
three weeks after he was married to
Mrs. Wing. This revelation of unfaith
fulness and duplicity on the part of Col
onel Breckinridge, it is'. said, has keenly
affected his present wife, and it . is now
asserted that when the pending trial is
concluded a suit for divorce will follow.
Tbs Feeling. Against the Governor.
" Denver Colo., March 17. The feeling
against Governor Waite rnns very high,
and it is said the temper of the opposition
to him is such that the slightest pretext
would be the cause of a personal assault
on him. The propriety of having the
governor Beized as a lunatic was discus
sed by 'some, and at one time seriously
considered.

owned a twelfth share, has been sold to
an English company for $29,000. A
brother and two sisters alw get a share
nearly $2,500 each. He expects his
brother out to Condon soon, and it is
very probable that they will invest their

FARM PRODUCTS ABROAD.
Houses are very cheap in Australia.
The horse' markets are glutted with
animals. offered, for which there is no
demand. Similar " reports come from
Great Britain. Indeed the. depression
in' the prices of horses seems to be
world wide.
A fixe stud of hackney horses has
been established at Buda-Posth, Hun
gary, by a wealthy gentleman named
VVahrmann. Among the foundation
animals are thirteen mares from the
renowned Brodkfield stud of Mr. Bur-
dett Coutts. .
The agricultural department of India
Has adopted what is there spoken of
as "a new idea," and which consists
in publishing for general distribution
monographs, similar to the farmers'
bulletins of the United States depart
ment of agriculture. - ' .
Farmers in all the parts of Europe
which suffered from drought last year
find it difficult to provide forage, to
keep their live stock through -the win
ter. In France and Germany, twigs of
trees and vines are made to contribute
to the subsistence of cattle and sheep,

Smith reports that the Rhine vintage
of 189.3 was a full ' one-half crop. This
is. a gratifying amount, as a three-
fourths vintage is a rarity ' and a full

pec ted on all sides that the Rhine wine
of 1893 will be nne in quality.

THE ISRAELITE N EGYPT.
Egyptian Names Are Falthfally Repro
duced la the ISible.
A correspondent of the .Manchester..
Guardian writes: - . Perhaps hardly any
taie ei ancient times iias.eome down
to us so rwell accredited as to its main:
facts as the story of the sojourn of the
Israelites in Egypt, their wanderings"
in the desert, and the slow and painful .
evolution among- them of a higher form
of religious faith, and yet, if we are to
believe Profs. B. Stade ("Geschichte
des Volkes Israel") and E. Meyer
("Geschichte des alten Aegrptens"),
the Israelites never were in Egypt, at
all. "All that we read of their history
in Exodus," says Prof. Stade, "is a myth
decked out as history." A defender,
however, has arisen for the old story
in far Japan, whence Prof.- L. Riess
sends a paper to the Preussihc Jalir
bucher (December) discussing at some
length Profs. Stade and Meyer's argu
ments, and giving his own attempt at
a rationalistic version' of the Bible
story. He dismissed as untenable their
argument from the silence of . the
Egyptian records (why, he pertinent-
ly asks should the Egyptians have
sought, to preserve- the memory ot
events so little creditable to them
selves?), and rejects as unscientific
their attempt to emasculate ' into
the mere' passing wandering of some
small nomad tribe that migration and
regeneration of a whole nation which
has left lasting traces on the history,;
of the world. The. accretions of a later
date may be distinguished from the
small bits of genuine tradition that are ;
all that have come down to us by their
very appropriateness, by their aptitude
to enforce the tendencies of the age in
which the tradition took definite liter
ary form; thus the. miraculous element
in the story of the Exodus would grow
naturally out of the desire for religious
edification, the omission of other men
tion of other tribes than their own
from "the growing' national exclusive-
ness. Hut where-we find details erven
which are opposed to the tendencies of
the later time, such as the Midianites,
later on Israel's '. bitterest enemies,
figuring now as their main helpers in
a spiritual as well as material sense,
or the forefathers of the two great
tribes, Ephraim and Manaseh, spring
ing from an Egyptian mother, there
we may surely draw conclusions favor
able to the genuiness of the tradition
of which they form part. No explana '
tion can account so simply for th
faithful reproduction in the Bible nar
rative of Egyptian names and circum
stances as Xhat of the memories left bj'
a lengthy sojourn in the country.
Prince Louis Napoleon Bonaparte

spring. The gospel of high protection
will be preached by Governor William
McKinley of Ohio, author of the tariff
policy which the present administration
and majority' in congress is endeavoring
to annihilate. Governor McKinley will
arrive here some time in May, and ar
rangements for his tour' of the state are
now being made by the republican state
committee. Hon.' Henry Watterson,
editor of the Courier-Journal, is booked to
lecture in Portland April 26th on ''Money
and Morals," and the local democracy is
preparing to meet him with open arms.
It is doubtful that his contract will per
mit him to deliver a partisan address,
but bis lecture will draw a packed house
just the same. The populist managers
have booked Ignatius Donnelly, Chair
man Taubeneck and United States Sen
ator Stewart to stump the state for Pen
