The Polygamy Central.
Sumpter valley, in Baker county, is
one of the prettiest in the state. Little,
if any, farming is done, but for miles
there are broad meadows, through which
one branch of Powder river meanders.
The surrounding country is gently undu
lating hills, covered with a fine growth
of I'ine timber. The Sumpter valley
railroai runs through the valley, a dis
tance of thirty miles, terminating for
the present at the thriving little town of
Sumpter. The road is owned by the
Oregon Lumber Co., its principal busi
ness being the hauling of logs and lum
ber. It is proving an important factor
in the development of the country, but
in earlier days was the subject of many
.jesls. Its owners being Mormons, the
road has been dubbed the Polygamy
Central, and a story is told that Super
intendent West, of one of the biz mines,
was going out on the road one day,
along with Mr. Ecclea, the superintend
ent of the road. The trip was twenty-
six miles to MuEwan, Every few miles
the engine would drop the cars and skip
out for some of the many mills or log
ging camps to do a lot of switching
This finally became unbearable to West,
who was in a hurry, and he said to
Eccles: "For heaven's sake! how many
more time are you going to stop?"
'Only once," replied Eccles, "we killed
a cow tip the road a little piece yester
day, and I will have to go across the
field about a quarter of a mile to pay the
owner for her." "Well," growled West,
"why don't you build a barb-wire fence
around the hind end of your old train
and keep the stock from running into it?"

You naturally loss flesh in
the summer and running down
is so easy. You get a little
weaker each day without hard
ly noticing it. There is loss of
appetite, headache, weakness
of the muscles, disturbed sleep,
weakness of memory, and these
are the beginning of nervous
prostration. Iron . and tonics
and bitters may afford some
temporary relief, but what you
need is a food for body, brain
and nerves.

pophosphites, furnishes just the
nourishment needed for those
who are run down and pale and
thin and weak. If you lose flesh
in summer take Scott's Emul

Gold and Silver Bugs.
The most remarkable gold bugs in the
world are found in Central America
They belong to the genus Plusiptis, and
one might easily imagine a specimen
to be the work of some clever artificer
in me-tal. The head and wing cases are
brilliantly polished, with a luster as of
gold itself. To sight and touch they
have all the seeming of metal, and it is
hard to realize that the creature is a
mere animal. Oddly enough there is an
other species of Plusiotis from the same
region, which has the appearance of be
ing wrought in Solid silver, freshly
burnished. These gold and silver beet
les have a market value. They are worth
from $25 to $50 each. One of the most
beautiful bugs in the world is a small
beetle known to science as the "blue
Hoplia." Its back is an exquisite irides
cent sky-blue, and the under part ofj
its body is of a bright silver hue. The!
notion that it contains silver is widely
entertained, and attempts have fre
quently been made to extract silver
from it. N. Y. Ledger.
Electriclslng Water Power.
Clear lake, 75 miles north of San
Francisco and 1,317 feet above the sea
level, having its outlet at Cache creek,
a stream supplying 327,000,000 gallons
of water daily, is to have its forces
translated into electricity, sent on over
head copper wires, 20,000 horse-power
and upward, to the motors at San Fran
cisco, besides doing lots of work all
around the region and on the line of
transit. On the way the waste water
is to irrigate hundreds of thousands of
acres of land, making it bud and blos
som like the rose. The water will be
shot through Pelton wheels, which will
be connected directly with the dyna
mos, the latter being among the largest
and most powerful known. The trans
mission of electricity iintier the waters
of the boy has been an intricate and
difficult probleUt, !ut has found its solu
tion, and now presents no obstacle of
a serious character. Chicago Inter

She Is Still Looking for an Engagement
at 81,000 a Night.
"I was traveling through North
Georgia," said a drummer to a Wash
ington Star reporter. "I stopped all
night at a cabin, where a young girl
kept me awake by singing. Her voice
did not have a particle: of music in it,
and she had no idea whatever of time
or tune, but she made the loudest noise
I ever heard come from a human, be

" 'I seed in th' county paper thet they

" 'Yes, some of them get $1,000 a

A pretty story of the young empress
of Bussia is going the round. Before
leaving Tzarsko-Selo her imperial ma j
esty gave a reception at the palace to
some ladies who had taken part in a
charitable bazar in which che was so
much interested. One of the ladies, it
seems, was mother to a baby exactly
the same age as 'the empress lovely lit
tle daughter. When it came her turn
to speak to the empress, although
hitherto a stranger, this : motherly
young woman inquired suddenly, with
irrepressible interest: "How's your
baby?" The empress smiled, and was,
it is said, delighted at the naivete. She
told the woman all about the royal tot-.
Apropos of the Russian baby, her little
highness when dressed for an outing is
held up at the window every morning
bv her nurse for all the world to see.
Time Occupied by Dreams.
The time occupied by a dream is one
of the marvels of sleep. In iShc work
entitled "The Philosophy of Mystery,"
we rend of a man who dreamed that he
had enlisted as a soldier; that he had
joined his regiment and traveled to a
foreign country; that he finally de
serted on account of the harsh treat
ment he had received at the hands of
his superior oliiccrs; that he had been
apprehended and carried back to his
regiment; that upon arriving there he
was tried by court-mart i;il, condemned
to be sJiot- end was led out for execu
tion. At this moment the guns of the
exec-.iiioircrs e::plotled and the sound
nwolva the dreamer. It was clear now
that a- loud noise in an adjoining room
hed bcth produced the dream and awak
rncd the dreamer almost at the same
moment.
