China' has asked this government to
intercede for her with Japan, and atop
the ' further advance of the Japanese
army. By the grapevine telegraph line
we have been enabled to obtain a copy
of Secretary. Gresham's reply to the re
quest, which is as follows :
"XiHung Chang, Peking, China, etc., etc.:
"Your request for the kind offices of
this administration has been considered
by the cabinet. China's woes touched
a tender spot in the president's heart,
which has become both sore and sympa
thetic since last Tuesday. The admin
istration will gladly do anything in its
power to alleviate China's sufferings,
and in return asks that the emperor in
tercede to save the administration from
utter annihilation. The republican
party is more bloodthirsty and aggres
sive than the Japanese. We know how
it is ourselves.
"I have the honor to be etc., etc., and
as badly licked as you are.
"Gkksham."
Miss Fay Fuller, the eminent Mazam
eress, has accepted a position as city
editor and reporter on the Pendleton
Tribuue. Miss Fuller is said to be a
brilliant writer, and to have a "nose for
news." We have never had the pleasure
of perusing anything from Miss Fuller's
pen, nor the additional pleasure of ex
amining her "noee for news," but . we
recognize the fact that woman, lovely
woman, is rapidly forging ahead in the
fields of journalism, and gladly welcome
Miss Fuller into the newspaper fold, and
this the more readily and heartily since
our contemporary asserts that she is
"one of the boys."
A Mysterious Matter.
A very mysterious thing happened
here last week which those who are best
posted, have little to say concerning.
As near as our reporter could letm the
affair happened Wednesday night, it be
ing the culmination of a conspiracy by
three individuals to kidnap Miss Blanche
Eothrock. The lady is a preminent
member of the Salvation Army here, her
home being at Hartland, Klickitat
county. On the evening stated a man
handed her a note while she was at the
barracks, in which she was told that her
brother had been hurt by the upsetting
of a load of hay, and urging her to come
home. The man who brought the note
volunteered to take her down the river
to Lyle, where another brother was to
meet her and take her home. She
started down the river with the man in
a small boat, but ehe never reached
Lyle. Whether the man repented, or
became frightened cannot be known, but
he brought her home Thursday morning
about 3 o'clock. We understand the
lady says she was down the river nearly
to Lyle, but as she left here about 9
o'clock in the evening it is probable she
did not get as far down .the river as she
supposed. It is also, stated that the
man who took her away became conscience-smitten,
at the girls artlessness
or moved by her oft-repeated prayers for
her brother's safety and so brought her
back, advising her on parting to never
Co away again with a stranger.

A Sunday Trip.
. The steamer Regulator made a special
: trip to the Locks yesterday, the mana
gers of the company going down to see
what could be done about the new in
cline, and the handling of freight until
the latter was completed. The morning
was rather'foggy but the day proved to
be a perfect one. The river, bordered
with the golden foliage of. the deciduous
trees, with the background of noble
pines and firs, was in one of its quiet
moods, not a ripple appearing on the
surface. It was a delightful day for a
trip and those who faiied to take advan
tage of it missed a treat. There were
not more than a dozen besides the direc
tors who made the trip, but they en
joyed it enough for a whole boat load.

TWO STUPID BOYS.
Incidents of the Boyhood of Dean Stanley
and William K. Gladstone.
Dean Stanley once said to a little
boy: "If I tell you I was born in the
second half of 1815, can you tell me
why I am called Arthur?" The name
of the hero of Waterloo was then on all
men's lips. When nine years of age
Arthur was sent to a preparatory
school. He was bright and clever, but
he couldn't learn arithmetic. Dr.
Boyd writes in Longman's Magazine
that the master -of the school, Mr.
Rawson, declared that Arthur was the
stupidest boy at figures who ever came
under his care, save only one, who was
yet more hopeless, and was unable to
grasp simple addition and multiplica
tion. Stanley remained unchanged to
the end. At Rugby he rose like a
rocket to every kind of eminence, ex
cept that of doing "sums." In due
time he took a first-class at Oxford,
where the classics and Aristotle's
Ethics were the books in which a stu
dent for honors must be proficient. He
would not have done as well at Cam
bridge, whose senior wrangler must be
an accomplished mathematician. On
the contrary, that other stupid boy,
"more hopeless" than Stanley, de
veloped a phenomenal mastery of arith
metic. He became - the great finance
minister of after years, William E.
Gladstone, who could make a budget
speech of three hours' length and full
of figures, which so interested the mem
bers of the house of commons that they
filled the hall, standing and sitting till
midnight. The story has two morals.
One is that a boy may be stupid in one
study and bright in all the remaining
studies. The other moral is, and it is
most important, that a boy may over
come by hard study his natural repug
nance to a certain study, and even be
come an eminent master of it.
An Old Song.
When giants lived in ancient times,'
Sing heigh, my boy, sine ho!
In good old Knglunt, or foreign climes, .
sing heigh, my boy, sing ho!
They carried things with a high old hand,
Nor strong, nor weak, could before them stand,
And they killed whom they pleased throughout
the land,
Sing heigh, my boy, sing ho!
But the. giants didn't have things their
own way when Jack-the-Giant-kMer ar
rived on the scene. You remember tue
story. Recollect, too, that every ag has
its giant-killer. We have our pants in
the form of all 'sorts of dread diseases,
supposed to be incurable. Our Jack is
in the form of Dr. Pierce, who has
proven the expression "incurable dis
eases" to be a fallacy. Can you im
agine more potent weapons to assist a
woman in killing the giant-disease,
than Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription?
It's the only guaranteed remedy for all
functional disturbances, painful dis
orders, and chronic weakness of woman
hood. In female complaints of every
kind, if it fails to benefit or cure, you
have your money back. It's simply a
question of the company you prefer
the Giant or Jack !

Henry Wilson, the postmaster at
Welshton, Florida, says he cured a case
of diarrhoea of long standing in eix hours
with one small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy.
What a pleasant surprise that must have
been to the sufferer. Such cures are not
unusual with this remedy. In many
instances only one or two doses are re
quired to give permanent relief. It can
always de" depended upon. When re
duced with water it is pleasant to take.
