THE CALL OF 1IOJIE.
'
From sun-burned mesa and tan-
gled plain
And the hillsides nude and steep
A sweet voice calls through the
hush of night,
As it wraps the world in sleep;
The singing call of the sun-
kissed hills,
And the glint of the trackless
sea;
The subtle perfume of flowers
that bloom
In the gardens of memory.
The locust sounds his quivering
' fife
O'er the desert wild and free,
Like half-hushed notes of the
joyful hail
Of the ships that pass at sea;
But silence, vast as the great
unknown,
Broods 'neath the glare of day;
And fancy paints the port of
home,
O'er the burning sands away.
C. A. Pitt in Pacific Monthly.
THE PEOPLE'S SCHOOL.
At Corvallis Wednesday a cla." of
122 students graduated from the Ore
gon Agricultural College after having
taken four years of work in that in
stitution. The graduates nil received
the degree of bachelor of science and
they have specialized In the following
subjects; agriculture, mining engi
neering, pharmacy, mechanical engi
neering, electrical engineering, civil
engineering, commerce and domestic
science and art.
The graduating class tnis year is
the largest in the history of the
school. So has the general attendance
during the past year been greater than
ever before, there being In the neigh
borhood of 1400 students enrolled l.i
the various classes.
These facts show very conclusively
that the people of Oregon appreciate
the agricultural college and subscribe
t the idea held by the venerable
Senator Justin S. Morrill the father
o'the national law which established
the agricultural colleges.
This idea in fcrief is that students
should be educated with a view to
becoming fitted for the places they
are to occupy in the world. It was
his conception that the two elementary
duties of a man are to work for a live
lihood and to defend his home and
country; and that a woman Is in her
natural sphere when she is the mis
tress of a household.
Accordingly the courses of study are
arranged so as to make useful as well
as cultured young men and women.
In addition young men are given mili
tary training under the direction of
United States army officers. They
must follow the colors on the drill
ground with the same regularity they
must attend classes. Because of this
the young men become well disci
plined and loyal citizens.
At this time the Oregon Agricultur
al College is the leading Institution of
its kind in the northwest and It Is
steadily forging ahead. It is well for
the state that such Is the case. The
greater this school becomes the bet
ter it will be for Oregon.
LEAVE THE SA.VD ALONE.
It was Martineau who said: "If 1
were to hove the choice of a fairy
gift, it should be like none of the
many things I fixed upon in my child
hood, in readiness for such an occas
ion. It should be for a great winnow
ing fan, such as would, without Injury
to human eyes and lungs, blow away
the sand which buries the monuments
of Egypt. What a scene would be
laid open then? One statue and sar
cophagus, brought from Memphis, was
burled one hundred and thirty feet
below the mound surface. Who knows
tout the greater part of old Memphis,
and of other glorious cities, lies al
most unharmed under the sand? Who
can say what armies of sphinxes,
what sentinels of colossi, might start
up on the bank of the river, or come
fi.rth from the hlllsMes of the interior.
The ruins which we now go to study
nilBht then appear occupying only
eminences, while below might be rang
es of pylons, miles of colonades, tem
ples intact and gods and goddesses safe
In their sanctuaries."
ISut If Martlnenu's wish could be
realized how would it profit the
world? What good would if do to
uncover the huge monuments that
were built n.ces ago n order to grati
fy some tyrant's whim? In the bulld
ii.g of those colossal piles were sacri
ficed the lives of thousands of slaves
who were the victims of Ignorance
and oppression. Why not let the sand
cover the ruin?
The world Is more interested in the
present and the future than In the
past. The past is gone and It can
never return. But the present Is a
living reality.
Even If the ancient temples and
monuments of Egypt could all be un
covered none of the biood that was
shed in their construction could be
wiped away. Martineau would have
expressed a nobler wish if he had
asked for a magic fan with which to
blow the germs of disease from the
face of the earth and bring the bloom
of health to the faces of the wretched
women and children who live In the
stifling, crowded tenements of the
great cities.
THE LIBRARY.
The statement from Miss Marvin,
secretary of the library board, that
the Pendleton public library Is the
best in the state with probably onq
exception is very pleasing. It should
be especially cheering to the loyal la
dies who worked hard to get the li
brary established In Its new quarters
and who are still devoting much time
to the cause of advancing the insti
tution.
The local library s now well estab
lished and its main need is of patrons.
Though the library Is being much
used there are ninny who are not tak
ing advantage of their opportunities.
They doubtless will use the library
more after the new fiction has arrived.
It is a public library, so muke use of
John Bull now has another reason
for feeling scared. A Russian torpe
do boat fired on a British sailing ves
sel which got in the way when the
czar and the kaiser were having a
fraternal visit.
Bill Haywood was arrested at El
lensburg for smoking a cigarette. He
i still in the limelight but his fame
waning.
It seems that the marshall at Shan
iko was not up to the standard of
eastern Oregon town officers.
The ownerless dog feel sad these
days.
JAMES J. HILL AS AN IDOL.
The fact that James J. Hill was
cheered by 40,000 people so long and
lustily as to Interrupt seriously a
fixed program Is significant.
Such a demonstration over a man
of business, a capitalist, a railroad
man, a builder call him what you
will Is unusual. Long and lusty
cheers from a multitude are ordi
narily turned loose over a political
hero who, whether a great statesman
or merely an astute demagogue, has
pleased the masses, or over a mili
tary commander who, whether by
the practice of genius or the lucky
accident of the moment, has gained a
victory over the enemy. The most
common stage for such hurrahing Is
a national political convention, where
it is all arranged beforehand as a de
vice for gallery playing. In the case
of Mr. Hill the demonstration was
necessarily spontaneous, voluntary,
from the heart. That makes It dif
ferent from the average demonstra
tion and puts it In a class to Itself.
And In proportion to its freedom
from insincerity is its scope as a
tribute, which is to say that It is a
vast, blood-warming tribute of which
Mr. Hill may rightly be proud and
over which his heart may beat as
never before. Louisville Courier
Journal. A Sight for the FJk.
At a certain fair out in Kansas,
says the Argonaut, a man went up to
a tent where some elk' were on ex
hibition and stared wistfully up at
the sign. "I'd like to go in there," he
said to the keeper, "but It would be
mean to go in without my family, and
I cannot afford to pay for my wife
and 17 children." The keeper stared
at him In astonishment. "Are all
these your children," he gasped.
"Every one," said the man. "You
wait a minute," said the keeper. I'm
going to bring the elk out and let
them see you all." Exchange.

A FORTUNE FROM TIPS.
Charles Miller, who has been
working for 35 years behind a lunch
counter in a New Tork hotel for
wages of $30 a month, has resigned
his position and announces his inten
tion to take a trip to Europe. On his
slender pay he has succeeded In ac
cumulating a fortune of $200,000, be
sides living in comfort all of these
years.
' This Is hardly so much a lesson In
thrift as a showing of the enormous
growth of the tipping habit in this
country during the present genera
tion. It has become the rule in more
pretentious hotels and cafes thnt the
wapes paid to a waiter are but the
Incident; the tips he receives are the
real remuneration for his work. It
does not appear that the European
practice of making a waiter pay for
his position, instead of receiving
wages, has been adopted as yet, but
that will probably follow unless other
states follow the precedent set by the
state of Washington and legislate
against the giving or the receiving of
tips, and likewise enforce the legis
lation, if it Js enforceable. ;
It would seem, offhand, that the
class of talent employed in the occu
pation of waiting upon a lunch
counter Is somewhat , overpaid with
an accumulated fortune of $200,000.
This is probably much greater than.
the average accumulated by the .men
whom the waiter served and who
good naturedly handed him gratui
ties for doing the work for which his
employer paid him. However, It
probably pleased them to throw little
charitable donations to a man richer
than themselves, although 1t ; is
doubtful whether they appreciated
the latter fact '
The case of Miller Is not uncom
mon. There have been half a dozen
similar instances recorded within the
past few years. In looking around
for an occupation In which to start
a child In life, the possibilities ahead
of a waiter In a high-class hostelry
seem to have been too much over
looked by American fathers. Evi
dently there are prospects of great
value In such a career. Selected.;1
