A Beautiful Counterfeiter.
The Great Child lecturer of Portland
on the Road to the Penitentiary.
.Portland people may remember a littlo
ft girl by tho namo of Smith, whoso first
t namo wo havo forgotten, who attracted
somo attention several years ago by her
lectures and spiritualistic manifestations.
Of lato nothing had been heard of hor
until last Monday night, when sho was
arrested in Salem for pissing counterfeit
gold $2 CO pieces on parties in Albany
recently. Farrar, Brcynmn it Co., T. C.
Smith, Wait it Brown, and others wcro
victimized. When arrested she protest
cd her innocence, but Officer Miuto
searched her as thoroughly as ho dared.
Not being satisfied, ho called to his aid
a couplo of ladies. Tho ladies run
Miuto and tho other officers out of tho
room, and proceeded to strip tho girl,
searching every nartislo of her clothing.
At last, almost despairing of fruitful re
rults, as only one articlo of apparel best
known In ladies was left unscarched, it
was decided to givo that an overhauling,
anyway, which was done, and lo 1 it
yielded up n teacup full of tho spurious
coin. Tho poor girl was unablo to deny
her crime, and will confess tho whole
business. Sho was taken to Albany
yestcniay. It is feared sho lias put a
great number of counterfeits in circula
tion all over tho country. Sho is a
step-daughter of Dr. A. 0. Smith, who
has lived in this city, Salem and
Tillamook-. JIo is registered at thn
Burton House, with his wifo and ono
daughter, but at present ho is away
from tho city, hiding from tho officers.
llo represented himself in this city as
being engaged in tho manufacture of
electric light instruments. Tho spuri
ous article is a very clover imitation and
can bo passed readily. Tho girl is about
17 years of ago and quito good looking.
Weston, Umatilla County.
A correstiomlcut of tho Kast Oregoniau
writes that paper from Wcaton, as follows:
Tho whole country from tho town to tho
Columbia, a clistauco of thirty miles, in two
short years will bo n continuous whcat-licldj
already land is being taken up and put under
cultivation; where- already sown with grain
the most promising crops arc- growing for tho
first timo in history; this Is now nearly all
now land, and tho idea must not bo convoyod
that Weston is calculating on this for its
prosperity. Far from it. This now land has
only been located tho past year, and one
tenth part of it is not yet under prc-omption.
It is only sinco the railroad was conceived a
year ago that attention was directed to theso
prospective grain fields. Tho country to
which Weston owes its oxlstanco is considered
to bo one of tho best parts of tho great and
wonderful Wnlla Walla Valley; it embraces
and is a trading center for scores of miles
of tho best agricultural and timber regions of
this Northwest. By degrees it is being dis
covered that there is no placo in tho country
that will not raise good crops of grain. Tho
land between Weston and tho river was once
considered too dry for anything. Experience
proves the reverse. Now tho same idea in
regard to tho uplands, and oven on tho sum
mit of tho Blue Mountains as to its being too
cold is being refuted by the samo old experi
ence. Wo examined wheat at tho Weston
Steam Flour Mills that was raised on the up
lands, and wo uuhesitatingly assert that no
better wheat or more to the acre was ever
grown since tho first settlement of the country.

Stirrer Beyond Boise.
Gen. L. F. Carteo of this city and Mr.
Campbell, tho Assistant Engineer of tho
Oregon Pacific Bailroad, returned hero
dn Saturday after nn nbsenco of two
weeks, most of which timo was dovotcd
to nn actual survey of tho ground bc
tween tho Big Camas Prairie and tho
paint whero tho survey reaches tho couth
branch of tho Boise lliver. Tho distance
which was subjected to tho test of transit
and lovel was about twenty-fivo miles.
Tho routo was from tho highest ground
near Big Camas Prairie, nlqng tho ridgo
between Cat Creek and Cainns Creek,
thenco down tho latter stream and along
tho hillsides to tho South I'oise. Tho
grades in no iustauco reach 00 feet to
tho milo, with a strong probability that
they may be reduced to 70 feet per milo
at tho points of steepest grade. At tho
latter figuro this would givo a riso of
about ono foot in 72 feet.
After making a careful nnd accurato
survey of tho routo named, the party
descended tho river in a boat, which
thoy had taken from hero overland for
that purpose. This part of tho work
was somewhat hazardous ns tho river is
quite rough nnd rapid in placci, but it
was necessary in order to thoroughly ex
amine tho canyon through tho river
passes. Tho result of tho examination
was quito satisfactory, no serious obstacle
presenting itself along tho river. Tho
cntiro routo was demonstrated to bo
easily practicable for a railroad. Tho
timo and labor which tho company havo
dovotcd to an examination of this routo
and tho favorable opinion expressed by
tho cngincors makes it nearly certain
that this will bo tho route snlectcd for
tho road. Sovcral months will probably
clapso before tho Rurvoys nro completed,
nnd tho lino of tho road definitely
located, after which tho work of con
struction will bo pushed rapidly. Idaho

Prospecting for Routes
Tho Idaho Statesman of Juno 10th
says: Mr. Campbell, tho assistant en
gineer of tho Oregon Pacific railroad,
left hero on horseback Tuesday morning
for Baker City. 1 lo informed us that
tho next work would bo to oxamino tho
country about th-i head of John Day'H
river, in Eastern Oregon, anil test tho
practicability of tho routo in tho direc
tion of Canyon City. From what wo
can learn it seems to bo tho intention of
tho company to thoroughly cxamino nil
tho possible routes from this point west
ward before deciding upon the ono to bo
chosen.
Thoughts on Breeding Hones.
Wo often hear it said that it docs not pay
for farmers to ralso this or that brood of
horses, but this is truo only in a limited
sense Tho best always pays. Tho best
specimens of any strain or stylo of horse soil
readily at good prices, and tho oor ones of
all breeds nro drugs upon tho market. It is
no doubt truo that a much greater measure ot
success may bo expected with somo breeds
thau others, tho choico depending largely up
on the circumstances of tho former, his loca
tion, etc, and that as a general rule, ordinary
farmers cannot compcto with wealthy profes
sional breeders in producing horses for racing
purposes, cither runucrs or trotters; but
even in theso classes much will depend upon
tho location and tho sort of brood marcs tho
fanner may havo ujion his form. If ho is
situated in a region famous for producing
turf horses, one that is frequented by buyers
of such horses, whero ho can havo access to
first-class stallions, and his brood mircss.ro of
strains of blood noted for producing winners,
ho will certainly find it most profitablo to
breed horses of this class. Where theso con
ditions do not oxist, ho will usually find tho
surest profit in breeding heavy draft or styl
ish carriago horses. National J Live-Stock
Journal, Chicago.
Hints Abont Grata 8eed.
Grass seed has a better cluuico on tho sar
faea than when covered deeply. It is safer
to sow it behind tho drill or cultivator than
forward of it. If sowed on a mellow surface
and pressed down with a roller it will not
fail if there is vitality and moisturo enough.
If sown with spring grain that which shades
grouud least is best, as grass, liko every living
thing, needs air and sun. If sowed with
winter grain, sow in tho spring and sow early,
If sown in August or September tho grass
will injure the grain crop. If sown on tho
snow in February or March tho surfaeo is
made light and looso by frost, and as tho
earth settles down much ot tho seed becomes
covered or partially covered, and is in tho
best possible condition to make heat, air, and
moisturo availsblo, and to start and grow and
get a secure foot-bold before the dry weather
comes on. If, however, it fails from any
cause, if sown early, there is an opportunity
to sow again, when the harrow must be
brought into use. If the seed is all gosd,
and is placed where conditions axe favorable,
it does not require the amount of teed often
sed. Kvery seed should have room to form
a perfect plant in order to become vigorous
and hardy, otherwise the plants will be more
or less dwarfed, weak and sickly.
Theatre Ticket! In Olden Timea,
Theatre tickets in olden times were, in
some instances, of very odd design. In

For tho highest-priced seats this stick
was of ivory; for the cheapest of bronze.
Many of these bronro canes havo been
tound in Pompeii, and then are some in

slender and gracefully made, having at
tho ton a littlo dome, on which a pigeon
is lurched. Even now in Italy they
call tho highest seats piccioneiro, or
dove-cotes.
