Somo people growl, whon tho boys aro too

After a whilo whon tho men of to-day nro a

Letter from Klickitat, W. T.
GcMiuxDAMi, W. T., April 11, 1K77.
Kn. FAitMKit: I'orlmps a fow Ileitis from
this (Klickitat) valloy will bo Inlorihtltifr to
somo of your renders, ns many persons In
tho Wllluiuotto valley nro tunilnK Ihotr
faces In this direction lo search for homes.
This valley lies on tho north sldo of tlio
Columbia rivor, and runs parallel with the
snmo n dislaueu of forty or fifty mile. Its
width being about tolvo miles. A hlt;l
rnngo of hills Ho between this valloy ni.d tho
Columbia river, nflording txoellentliniuh
grami pastures, whllo on tho north of the
valley lieu tho Sinicoo mounlaius vthoo
Bides aro covorcd with plno, fir, tamarack,
and o.k timber. Tho summit of tho liimiu
tnln Is doatltuto of tlmbor, but covered with
rich bunch grass. It Is to thcto rich moun
tains pastures tho shcop-honlcrs of tho val
ley drlvo thoir Hocks lu in Id summer when
tho grass of tho valloy becomes dry, and
water In many places scarce.
Tho Klickitat -rivor, tiulto a largo stream,
has Its sourco nonr tho base of Mount Adams,
runs soutnwnra across tuo west end of tho
raliey and emptlos Into tho Columbia fifteen
mllos bolow Dalles City. Tho population of
tho valloy Is said to bo about twolvo huu
drod, mostly or an oxoollent class of citizens,
who aro making for thomsolvos comfortable
homes. Slnco arriving in tho valloy I havo
mot many old frlouds and nolghbors who
formerly lived In Marlon county, Oregon,
among whom I will mention: Old Father
Griffith and wifo, James Uurnottaud family,
John Haws, Samuol Darling, Ienao Darling,
Lavl Darling, Jacob Short, llobort Mall,
Undo Jacob Adams, Mr. Fleck nnd others,
who nro all In good health, and oxpross
thouitolvcs as well plensod with tho chango
thoy havo made. Tho soil in this valloy,
especially In tho lowest portions, Is a untidy
loam, from two lo four foot deep, and very
productive, growing all tho corcals ns woll as
vogotnblcH to perfection. Fall-sown grain
looks qulto well aud promises a good ylold,
whilo a grcator ncroago of spring grain is bo
lug sown than over btforo. Quito au Im
petus has boon glvon to farming in con&o
quoncoof tho complollon of two grist iiiIUm
In Goldondalo during tho last year. Now
tho fauuor can cat bread inauo of wheat of
his own raising.
Thoro Is yet much unclaimed land lu this
valloy, not all liowovor, suscoptlblo of culti
vation, much of it bolngtoo uneven for tho
plows, having in agos past boon thrown up
(either by tho notion of wind or water) into
llttlo hillocks, varying in dlamoter from ten
to ono hundred foot, aud in hlght from two
to tlyo foot. Tho spaco botwoon thcso llttlo
mounds aro moro or loss rocky, though not
outlroly Udolcfas. for thoy abound in camas
on which hogs llvo ftvl two-thirds of the year
without any cost to tho owner. Hall timber
In somo parts of tho valloy Is scarco, aud has
to bo hauled a diatancoofsix to twelve miles.
Goldondalo Is situated on a branch of Klick
itat river about midway of tho valley, cast
unit WMl, KM.I in It tnrlVlng llltlo-rlllaaa,
containing two dry goods and grocery
stores, two blacksmith shops, two grist
mills, ono school houso and ono church
building. It Is Improving fant nnd will fcoon
bo thocoutorofa largo trade. Mr. Thomas
Johnson, tho prlnclpal.morchnntof tligplnco,
nnd also owner of ono of tho grist nil Up, has
It protty much his own way nt present, but
I oplno thnt oro long ho will hnvo a lively
competition in which tho Inhabitants of tho
town nud surrounding country will take
gront Intorest. Thoro Is a good oponlng at
this phico for n baddlo and hiirnebs makor,
tinner, boot nnd Mioo makor, wagon mnkor,
Ac, but for tho vendor of strychniuo
whlikoy, this Is no plnco. The moral charac

high stnndnrd that thoy tolernto nothing of
tho kind, nnd for this oxibitlon of tholr
worth as a community, I bosponk. for them a
prosperous future.
llov. Klrkman, of tho Mothodlst church,
pronuhes regularly at the church on Sabbath
at ten o'clock n, in., whilo an Interesting
Sabbath school Is conducted In tho aftor
noon, A doop religious interest seems to
porvado tho community. Near this plnco
aro twosnw mills lu conduit operation, nnd
two othorij will soon start, which will furnish
abundant lumbor for building nnd fencing
purposes , which him hitherto been lacking.
Stock of all kind Is in 11 no coudltlon,
mutton sheep bolug to fat for good eating, I
am infomed by tho residents hero, that tho
winter has boon very mild, ushering In an
early spring, nnd at this tlmo tho bunch

IWhy Titles Occur later Each Day.
As tho moon reilvcs around tliocuth
frm west to u.tst slio advances eatwardly In
her orbit about thirteen degrofis every twon-ty-rour
hours. Hence, when any part of tho
enrth, lults lcvolutlou, comoi uiulffr h pHit
of tho heinous v. lieu tho moon Is not thero,
but lias gone eastward thirteen degree, and
thoroforo tho earth mu&t turn on its a.xIm rs
much lonpor us Is necessary l bring lh.it
pnrtngaln under tho innon, which ri quires
generally, not always, nVout fifty minutes.
Tho emtio thing occurs tho ne.t youIng
and tho evening niter, nnd thus tho moon
rises most of tho year about filly minutes
later each day. Now, as tho tides aro pro
duced mainly by tho moon, it iWll at onco
hotcen fioiu this eastward movement nud
this later rising caeh day, why thoy must
occur about filty minutes latercach succeed
ing day. While tho lunar lido Is thus dally
Inggiug, tho solar tide occurs at tho snmo
tlmo. Honco theto two tidos always begin to
acparato aftor now moon, bolng further
apart each day, until thoy ngaln colucido nt
full moon, when thoro Is n higher tldo than
usual, called spring tldo. Thon again they
separate, until now moon occurs, when they
onco moro unlto, producing anothor spring
tide.
It must not bo supposed that tho wholo
body of tho cccan, to Its profoundeet depths,
Is equally moved by tho tides. Tho tides
aro mainly superficial, arid oxeopt whoro tho
water is of modorato depth tho lowest parts
aro only slightly disturbed; but to what
dopth tho tidal current extends can never,
porhaps bo satisfactorily determined. Tho
gulf stream Is ""about threo thousand foot
deep, having for Its bottom u bod of cold
wator of various depths; but as tho stream is
tho result of other cntiMOB than thoso thnt
produco tho tides, it is not safo to estimate
tho depth of tho tidal currents by tts own.

Washington's Dinner.
Twontv to twentv-fivo llvo years nco it
wns our ploasnro to visit nt times an old

tho Mounohold nn- old lady, Hinco passed
away, at tho rlpo ago of nearly ono hundred

ovonts In tho early history of this country.
Ilor father kopt for many years a country
tavern lu Rhode Island. At ono tlmo word

without regard to trouble- or exponso. Tho

At tho appointed hour for dinner tho distin

their disappointment when Washington
turned his head aud spoko to her mother,
aud askod tho question: "Havo yon plenty

alllrmntlvo nnswor, ho then tnld. "If you
can I wiih you would give mo n bowl of
hasty-pudding and milk." Tlio hasty-pud
ding and milk woro furnished, and of these
ho niado his entire dlnuor. After tho dlnnor
was over, ono of tho family, lu their dlsap
nointmcut, said to Washington: "Your
work is fco hard, wo should supposo you
would ncod bomothlng moro hearty than

In tho neighborhood of tho nose. A pnssurn
thoro may prevent a cough when It Is begin

I'resslng very liard on the top of the mouth
Inside Is also a means of stopping coughing.
And I may say the will has an immense

was exceedingly rare that a patient coughed

AN INDIAN BATTLE.
'Many yen re ngo, when tho Indiana

In purMiit of it bund who ltntl lied over

that untiling shoit of oxtortnlimtion
would satisfy Mieni, nnd, their wrongs
constantly before their mitidy, tliey
pushed forward rapidly after the Hoeing
ciivnces. Tlio Indliuw, knowing what
they would sudor should they bo overta

Urundo Hondo Valley, then uninhabited
havo by the wild (leer. Tlio band reach

made their cninp In a deep cnuyon thnt
opened into tho alley.
Tho party in pumilt niso reached tho
valley that night, and enuiu to u clump
of trees on a mountain that towered far
nbove the Indian camp. Neither tho
whites or tho Indinni woro awaro that
thoy wero on camped so near each othor.
Tho whites put tlielr miards out for tho

and If possible, surprlsoand surround tuom.
Tho ludlnus being down lu n deep canyon, a
party of tho whites wero sent to tho oppo

from both sldos. Tho pursuing party charg

Tho pursuing party having obtained such
