hollow. The part of the "tooth" below
the gum bulges blunt and round, and is
eimiliar in shape to some of the wooden
golf sticks. The taxidermists say they
do not know, what uee these organs are
to their original possessors.

Work on the tirade Between Goldendale

President Lytle, " of the Columbia
Southern R. R.' Co., was in Goldendale
Saturday for the purpose of interviewing
our people in regard to "the immediate
construction of the railroad from Lyle to
Goldendale. -
The company's proposition to build
the proposed line is very reasonable.
No bonus whatsoever Is demanded of
our people the company only asking
right of way and depot grounds. If the
people will give these, the company
bonds itseltto commence grading the.
road not later than July . 1st, but will
not agree to complete the . road before
January 1st, 1901, although it is the
desire of the company to have it com
pleted by October let of this year. The
road, if commenced, 'will be finished as
quickly as possible. .
We believe that the farmers whose
anaa are put into bad snaps by the
surveyare entitled to a reasonable com
pensationand by that is meant no
fancy price. Each one whose lands
are not crossed by the 'survey, should
lend a helping hand in procuring right
of way. Some will be found who will
give right of way without any consider
ation whatever, while others will de
mand outrageous compensation. The
latter, it is hoped, will be few and far
between, as they will but deter the
building of the road and will gain noth
ing thereby. -
.With a railroad from Lyle to Gjlden
dale, the expensive wear of farmers'
wagons, harness and horses in hauling
off the products of the farm will be a
thing ol the past. Freight rates will be
reduced, the cost of living decreased and
a greater demand created for the pro
ducts of the farm. Home markets will
be increased and the outside ones can be
reached at all seasons of the year.
If on business or pleasure our people
may wish to make a journey, how much
more agreeable it will be to ride in the
passenger coach of a railroad train rather
than to melt in a vehicle on a hot sum
mer day with sand and dust to contend
with, or freeze in winter with muddy
roads, in winter's blasts, sheets of rain
or driving snow.
Let the people unite as one with the
determination to make a railroad a
urety beyond question and immediate
ly) our hopes will not have then been in
vain the long desired is assured.

Met a feller t'other morninr
Most amusin' sort o' cuss: .
Hed a cur'us style about him
Cert't'y eould'nt well be wuss.
I says: "Where you hall I'm pardner?"
An' he smiles in knowln' way,
An' replies In forren lingo:
"Porto Rico, U. S. A."
Seen a feller down on Broadway,
With a shockln head o' hair,
An' a lot o' tropic garments
An' a most outlandish air,
"Whur's he from?" a feller shouted,
- But before we'd time to say,
This yere heathen turned an' answered:
"Honolulu, l. S. A."
Met a feller yere on Olive,
w itn a somoer-e-ro on ;
to hide her baldness. . '
In other days these same women
wonld have done their hair up on wav
ing pins over night, but the time has)
passed when women are willing to go to
bed looking like frights. And that is)
another reason for increasing baldness
that so many women keep their heads
overheated by the use of the pompadour
rolls. ' . .
' Subjected to incessant use of tongs and
the scalp overheated by the roll, hair
dies a natural death. Dame Nature
submits to abuse just about bo long and
then she takes revenge. She is taking
revenge now nice little bald spots on
women" s heads, the result of hair drop
ping out by the handful.
Had a lot o' shaggy whiskers;
Nearly all his clothing gone.
Stopped an' asked me for a quarter;
avs: "Mr home is fr uwnv
"Where you from?" The varmint answered:
"Santiago, U. S. A."
Seen a feller at the Southern,
With a heavy iron box; - .
Had a top coat lined with bearskin,
Wore a dozen pair o' socks.
Sized him up to be a miner,
Judgin' by his awk'ard way;
Seen him write in big cha-rex-ters;
"Circle City, U. S. A.
Seen a saddle-colored heathen,
Wearin' earings in his nose;
Linen cuffs around his ankles;
Most indecent lack of clothes.
"Where'd this heathen guy spring frum?"
I inquired in lofty way ; "
An' he had the nerve to answer:
"Frum Manila, fj. S. A.
"Gee!" I says, "I never heard of
These yere cannybuls before!"
Air these heathens to be voters?
Will ye stan' fur any more?
Next you know, you ask a feller
Where he's frum, and he will say,
With a lordly kind o' nourish:
"All Creation, TJ. S. A." .
While we don't malce macb pretension
In our quiet sort o" way,
Still we like that last short sentence
Fits us to a t-y-tay.

Modes of locomotion change with
times. ,
It was not many years ago when The
Dalles was the distributing point for all
Eastern Oregon and a large Bhare of
Idaho, trade having extended as far as
Boise City. Passengers leaving The
Dalles In those days had bnt one choice
the stage coach and they were always
crowded. The arrival and departure of
the thorough-brace with four and six
horses attached was the event of tbedav.
How well do we remember hea-ing of
the dreary all-day and night journeys
in lumbering, creaking vehicles. -
Few remain in our vicinity today, and
from all appearances it- will be but a
short time until they are a thing of the
past. . :
But the old stage driver, he will still
be with us, vigorous as ever, always
ready to rehearse with pathetic earnest
ness the glories of tbe old coaching days,
and iikely will often resent the intrusion
of the railroad.
That the Iron-horse has crowded out
tbe thorough-brace in Sherman county
is not surprising, and should it pursue
its course on to Prineville, Crook county
would not be out of reason, for at
preeent that place is not nearer than
Tbe Dalles to a railroad, and is the
center of a very large stock conntry
Aa interior pieces are settled, more
becomes the need of quick transporta
tioh and it is but a matter "of time until
the shrill whistle will reverberate among
the hills' of the southern ' pait of our
county and we will; with' the old stage
driver, regret the demand of the age
Truly the world grows 'smaller every
day. " '

Bnt it isn't a freak of fashion : it has
