An extra freight coining up this morn

injuring no one. The road was block-

The pleasure of the pessimist is to as
sure you there is no pleasure. The liar
tells'you there is no truth and expects
you to believe him. The hypocrite he
wails the "universal lack of sincerity"--and
is offended if you ask for evidence of
his good faith. "Life is not worth ik
ing," wails the sentimentalist and for
gets to commit suicide.
Count Browlaski, the famous Polish
dwarf, was born in 1739, and vsited every
court in Europe in the last century.
When six years he was only 17 inches
in height, though at SO years of age he
grew to be 3 feet 3 inches. Ho had a bib
ter, alio a dwarf, and so much smaller
than himself that Ehe could stand erect
under his arm. He was a man of varied
and extensive accomplishments.
There are rumors and rumors what
will be done next by the house. Among'
them one that a Fcheme for re-organira-tion
has been broached, with Hon. B, S.
Huntington, of this county, as speaker.
Mr. Huntington would make an excel
lent presiding officer and we hope the
rumor may prove not without, substan
tial foundation. The Benson house
would certainly agree to any reasonable
compromise.
Notwithstanding"" The good sermons
preached almost every day in the East
"Oiegonian, Pendleton is having more
than her share of that kind of crime in
volving great moral turpitude. The
other day it was the city recorder, who
used the city funds for his own purposes,
aud now from the East Oregonian we
learn of a prominent Woodman solicit
ing funds for a sick brother, and failing
to turn them over. It is such things as
these that makes man lose confidence in
his fellow man.
She was nervous and scared as she
penetrated the city's purlieus. A
freight train was being switched down
there, and a loud-voiced switchman was
giving instructions to another of bis
craft. Switchmen have a language all
there own, which is incomprehensible
to the plain, every-day, nonrailroading
citizen. Among other things they call
a train "her" and "she," just as a sailor
refers to a ship, and just as she neared
the switchman, this is what he yelled :
"Head her off, Jim ; 'cut her in two and
send the head end up here." She fled
from the murderous villain, and post
poned her trip. Meanwhile tho other
switchman obeyed orders. He cut the
train in two and sent the head end back.
Drill Sent tor.
We stated some days ago that the mon
ey subscribed for the diamond drill had
been collected, turned over and the drill
ordered. We were mietaken about the
latter portion of the statement for the
drill was not ordered until yesterday.
Mr. Nicholas had been corresponding
with dHTerent parties concerning prices,
etc., and besides it took some little time
to decide upon just what kind of a drill
was needed. It is the intention now to
buy two drills ; one a regular diamond,
and the other simply a bit working on
the diamond drill shaft, known as an
''adamantine." The latter is adapted to
cutting tough rock that is not hard, and
will facilitate the work.

A Lucky Inventor.
A email rotary engine of novel
design has been invented by Grant
Brambel, of Sleepy Eye, Minn., for
patent of which H. F. Allen, of Loudon,
president of an engineering syndicate,
hae offered him 1,000,000. In the or
dinary type of cylinder engines the steam
enters at the end of the cylinder, is cut
offandusedas an expansion from the
cut off to the end of the stroke. The
Brambel rotarry engine does away will)
the crank motion and uses its own
plunger for a cut-off. The engine li
team tight and requires no ring pack
ing. It can be either simple or com
pound. It weighs lest and occupies
only a fraction of the space of the old
style engine. The working model
weighed but twelve pounds and seven
ounces, yet was of twenty-three actual
horse-power.

Sheriff Matlock arrived from Heppner
estorday, armed with a warrant for tho
nest of u young man named Morgan,
on of Heppner's mayor, Ho had telo
raphed here concerning Morgan, and
iDeputy Sheriff Kelley, had arrested, the
young fellow belore Matlock arrived.
He is charged with that offense as old
as history ; as old and perhaps older than
legandaty lore can bear witness to of
having loved not wisely, but too well.
As the matter stands now, he is a father
without having attended any wedding
ceremonies, but will go back now that
ho has to, and give tho girl and the little
one tho right to bear his nnmo. Tho
land slide at Bonneville, rather delayed
his wedding tour with tho sheriff, but
he will havo it just tho same. ,

THE BEAN AUTOMATIC
SPRAY PUMP.
Is, unquestionably, the most success
ful and perfect working Spraying Device
yet invented.
It is a unsversai testimony that more,
as well as better, work can be accom
plished with the Bean Spray Pump than
with uny other pump on the market.
With this pump one man can charge
the receptable and leave it to direct the
spray just where it is wanted, and thus
with sufficient hose pass from tree to
tree. The solution is delivered fn a fine
mist or spray, penetrating every nook
and cornor, thus doing better and more
effective work than is possible by any
other method, and with no wasto what
eAer of solution.
