The Grain Aphis.
Mr. W. Rice brought into our office
today several heads of wheat from the
grain field of Mr. John Havely, near
Boyd, which are badly infested with
what is called by the Willamette papers
the grain aphis. This insect first made
its appearance in the valley recently.
Pro?. Washburn, of the Agricultural
Coll ege, looks upon this infectious in
sect with somewhat alarm. Mr. Rice
informs us that several grain fields in
the vicinity of Boyd are affected, and
the wheat is already beginning to feel
the effects of it. Also, together with
this pest, wheat in places is badly
stricken with rust. Some writers insist
that the only remedy for annihilating
the aphis is to destroy the grain and
straw as soon as it will bnrn.

joys and sorrows, have passed over the
head of the bride, leaving behind
a few wrinkles and gray hairs as a re
minder of their flight, while eighty-four
summers' suns and winters' hoary frosts
have faded the once dark locks of the
groom to snowy whiteness. But for all
of that they did not escape the unerring
flight of Cupid's dart. We heartily
wish Mr. and Mrs. Carter - many years
of happiness and bliss, and may they
live to a ripe old age.
Cupid is a wily rascal, . .1
Watching, watching every day
Just to catch unwary mortals,
like a tplder for his prey.
Cherry lips he seeks not only,
Nor for merry dancing eyes;
But he catches 'mong his victims
' Those much older and more wise.
All his pranks are queer and sudden,
' Full of joy or full of woe.
Few but once for all he bothers,
Others wheresoe'er they go.
- These two whom he brought together;
Whose two hearts shall beat as one, -.
May they still remain his captives

Obituary.
James Francis Magee was .born in
Lebanon, N. Y., June 8, 1811, died at
The Dalles, June 23, 1894, aged 83 years,
2 weeks and 1 Say.
Deprived of hia father in his infancy,
his mother consented to his adoption,
by her sister Mrs. Magee, at the age of
two years. He took his adopted parents'
name, was christened in' the Roman
Catholic church, and it was intended by
them that he should enter the priest
hood. His education for that purpose
commenced at an early age, and this
under God proved a great blessing, as
he obtained a better education in French
and English than he could have under
different circumstances. Through re
verses. and loss of property, at the age of
15 years he was compelled to make his
own living, and by the . providence of
God was directed to a Methodist family
in the town of IStanslead, Canada.
December 19, 1837, he married Sally
Brown, and they have traveled life's
journey together for 58 .years and 6
months. ' Two children were born to
them and this is the first break in the
family. January 1839 he was converted
and united with the Wesleyan Method
ist church of Stanstead." His religious
experiences were deep, quiet, joyous.
Gentle in his nature, simple in' his
habits, unassuming, self-sacrificing to
the extreme, joyous and hopeful, trust
ing in God's love and his especial provi
dence, his presence was a benediction, to
his family. Cordial and friendly with a
bright, smile and loving word for all,
none knew him but to love him. His
convictions of right and wrong were
clear and strong, they governed ' his
course of conduct, but he shrunk from
imposing them on others. He loved the
house of God and all of its services.
His place at prayer and class meeting
was seldom vacant. He loved his native
country, and he loved his adopted
country, he was a true patriot. In.
April 1854 he with others was attracted
to California by' the great excitement of
the discovery of gold. Like others his
fortune varied but he persistently carried
out his resolution to stay until he could
secure for his family enough to ensure a
comfortable support. Like all pioneers
he endured many - hardships and among
these was the loss of all religious privi
leges. On his return from California
his zeal was dampened, hut after mak
ing his residence in The Dalles he was
brought back to a sense of his neglected
duty, and most heartily again took up
his work for the Master.
Soon age and infirmity broke his
robust constitution, and four years ago
fever began the destruction of his mind.
He was industrious and always found
plenty to do up to this time. -
Last March he fell and received such
injuries that he has since been helpless.
One week ago those who cared lor him
detected a slight fever and since then he
failed rapidly. , When awake he con
stantly appeared engaged in prayer, or
in giving testimony to Jesus' love and
power, saying "I am thine; yes, I am
thine. I love Jesus." . His oft repeated
words were, "For me, for me."
Ac 7 o'clock Saturday evening, the
silver cord was loosed, the golden bowl
was broken and he was not, for 5od
took him.

The Chinaman Won.
Yesterday afternoon about, 4:3p, Milt
Aiken and a young friend were driving
a Hambletonian cayuse down Second
street, hitehed to a cart known in 'every
day language as a canine cart. Just this
side of Pease & Mays', as the gait wasn't
of the record breaking kind, Mr. Aiken
brought his whip down on the brevet
Hambletonian in a way that the latter
thought uncalled for, and like Jeshuron
she kicked. She kicked, to some, pur
pose too ; for, after shaking the occu
pants out of the cart, she still played
trumps until she also kicked herself out,
hoist with her own petard, so to speak.
Finding herself nntrammeled by the ties
that bound her to the vehicle, she
spurned the ignoble cart with.both hind
feet, and started to remove herself
rapidly from that vicinity. She didn't
like the middle of the road either, so,
taking warning from "the late very
populist movement in this state, she
took to the sidewalk, and struck out for
Tub Chronicle qffice with this item.
As ehe reached the sidewalk, a mild
mannered Chinaman was meandering
in the direction she wanted to go, and
seeing her coming like a cyclone, the
Celestial put an extra slant in his port
eye and struck out for The Chronicle
corner ahead of her. His quilted
doublet and Marie Antoinette panties
operated as a handicap, catching the
breeze dead ahead, while the mare was
running under bare poles, as il were;
but he was gritty as wellsas scared, and
would not fly the track. The thunder
ous thud of the mare's feet close at his
heels, put life and mettle into the flying
heathen. He hung the monkey wrench
on his safety valve, (metaphorically of
course) and tnrned on all his steam.
They came into the home stretch in
front of the , First National bank, with
daylight only - between them ; and from
there to The Chronicle corner -the
theretofore breathless crowd began to
find tongue, and to give the little yellow
man encouragement. There were loud
cries of "Run John or you're a goner,"
"Get there John," and a hundred other
equally encouraging remarks. In
another second there was a' sharp,
whistling swish of blue China pants and
a green blouse around The Chronicle
corner, and the Chinese was a winner by
a neck. The horse seeing all the fun was
over stopped, while the winner wiped his
face and casting an indignant' glance at
the yelling crowd remarked, "Wha' for'
you holler? Damfoot think I throw that
race off?" y- - :"," . . -
