bay, an arm of the Pacific 'Ocean?
on the Oregon coast, Is a wild and
rugged region. The cliffs along
the edge of thi ocean are exalted,
prtcipitious. rough and beetling.
In many places hugb rocks torn
from those awful battlements lie in
the een below, and against the e
the ever-recurripn; and crawling
canyons of the vasty ceep dash and
are broken one after another, and
the baffled waters seethe and foam
and roar as if in fniious anger.
On the land the primeval forests
of hemlock, spruce and pine stand
as heavy, somber, deep and mys
terious as if the foot of man bad
never trod the ground upon which
they grow. Here, indeed, the soli
tuae is uautterable, and all nature
is as mild, dreary and uninviting
save to those who love her in her
mct awful moods as where
'The wolf's long bowl is heard,
On Oonalaska's lonely shore.''
The streams in this region are
full of big and siiucy trout, and
game, great and small, is abundant
in the woods. This is why myself
and a companion were down there,
in that southern extremity of Tilla
mook, lor a time last summer.
One day while we were explor
icg the deep woods, about tnree
miles from the oca3 and six miles
beiow a settlement on the Nestueca
bar, we suddenly came upon
diminutive lo; cabin. A patch of
ground near by had been cleare.
SB 1 around the patch had becu
built a rudd fence of logs, stump?
brush and whatever other materia
fit for the purpose could be fount
at hand.
The discovery was more or Jess
astonishing, and we started at once
for the cabin intent upon ascertaiu
log, it possible, wno uau come so
far from the haunts of men, three
miles from the ocean and six miles
from anywhere else, to pitch his
habitation; who it was that bad
been so eminently successful in
finding such "a boundless con
tiguity of shade."
We were quickly rewarded, for
the dark of an aged dog brought a
tall, grizzled and bent old man to
the door, and he had to bend some
more to come through the entrance
of his habitation .
"lieiio: uoca tiuy, lie 3a:d. id
a pleasant tone. ''Glad to see you
it y u are friendly." he continued
and when we assured bint as to
why we happened to be there, he
naked us to take seats or. a bench
outside.
He tulked well, too; used good
English, with a touch ot Western
aialect, and his conversation was
spiced with great good-humor and
besprinkled with salt of the Attic
Tiritv.
It was evident that he was a very
extraordinary man to be Mius living
here, and more extraoidinary for
that very paradoxical reason.
Somehow I felt from the first
that 1 knew tue man, ana irm a
pecular twinkle of bit eye, as be
led me en gradually to talk about
people aad places known well to
me, I felt he knew who I was.
He informed as daring the con
versation that he had been living
alone in his cabio, which be bad
built himself, for nearly three
yeais. and that his only companions
were bit old uog and a cow and
a calf.
Once in perhapt a month, en an
aye;age, he went to the post office
at Neslcowin, a very small hamlet,
ten or tweivt miles away, where he
got some newspapers and maga
zines, which he subscribed for, and
at the one little store in the village
such ether articles as he might
need.
Finally aty curiosity and
Bohemian audacity got the better
ef politeness and I asked him who
be was. He replied :
My name is Sam Smith and I
know vea quite well, though I
have not teen you for many years."
Like a flash bis name brought
his entire idenity back, though be
has grown very gray, has a long
beard and looks very much elder
than ha is; though I should think
he is over sixty in reality.
"And who is Sam Smith i"
perhaps the gentle reader
is saying, and, possible, with two
other little words frequently used in
the emphasis of this in. t rogation.
Samuel W. Smith is a poet and
dramatist of no little success. He is
the author of a play which thousands
have ' seen throughout the world,
where the English language is spok :i
by many people, and which has made
a great loriune lor moec pico-nw
actors, J. C. Williams and Maggie
Mooie. He not only wrote "Struck
Oil," but also "The Blue and Gray,''
a drama mujh used a tew years ago
among amateurs with protesssional
leaders, in the tame way that "The
Color Guard" and other such playt
are worked. j -
He also wrote "Tom Bell," a very
successful California melodrama of a
fer years ago, and he is the author
of "Fonda, the- Trajper'a Bride,"
"California Through Death's Valley,"
or whatever otbe? name they chose
to call it, over which Sheridan Cor
byn, Frank Mavo'a late manager, and
Captain Jack Crawford, the "poet
scout," areNiow having au interesting
war of words iu the dramatic news
papers, and over which they may
come to a lawsuit, though nothing
more dangerous need bo looked for.
Sam Smith wrote the play for John
Woodard, who a short time ago was
playing '.'Roger" in "Esmeralda" ia
one of the Madison Square companies.
lA A great'iactof ; ia ; this, same John
Woodard, wno nas- neon a vwom yo
his own abnormal and astonishing
modesty. Woodard was many years
a theatrical manager in San Francisco
in early times, and often then he re
constructed dramas to suit the day
and occasion, interspersing them with
songs piepared to catch the miners,
thus he became the author of the
once famous son, "Joe Bowers,"
which begins:
"My name it ia Joe Bower,
1 have a brother Ike,
I'm Just from eld Missouri:
Yes, all the way from Pike."
He was also the author of the re
markably popular song on the coast
in these times:
'The days of old, the. days of gold ,
The days of forty-nine."
Smith called the play alluded to,
"The Plains," and it was an excellent
piece of work of its kind then. What
the dramatic art of Crawford & Co.
may have- done for it since depondent
saith not.
Smith came to California in the
gold-digging times, and in 1S61 joined
the Union army as a private soldier,
and rose to the rank of Captain. His
command served altogether on the
Pacific coast among the Indians of
Wabhington Territory, Oregon, Cli
ornia aud Arizona.
When I asked him how he came to
write "Struck Oil," he said:
I went to Frisco in '73 and was
slain, financially, in Flood's stock
deal. Then I needed a hundred dol
Jars, or any other imount. An actor
(without giviug his name, a name
that will occur to the profession
throughout the United Staees when
it is said he is one'of the best drawing
stars on the stae and yet one of the
most homcopathic-souled men on
earth) left word with John Woodard
that he wanted a "piece" with I
sing-song Dutchman in it, and would
pay well for it. I wrote what
thought would answer and when the
actor came around presented it io
inspection, he flashed the light o
a tnree thousand dollar solitaire oa
me aii'l taid:
"It won't do as it is, but since
you've wrote it (that's his style of
grammar) I'll take it Ktst co my au
thor, Fred Maeder, aud it he can d
anything with it I'll give you some
thing for it"
Casually I remarked: "Blast your
author, or words to that etlect, aud
departed with m manuscript.
Next day I watched at the entrance
of the California Theater for J. C.
Will anson, the low comedian there.
I didn't know him personally, but
knew him by si ;ht, so button-holed
him when he came out. I got him
into a safe place and read that pfece
to nun and it made his eyes stick
out. He gave me a hundred on the
spot and said if I ever got hard up to
let hi in know, lie made a fortune
by it, and once in a while he adver
tises and finds out where lam, and
sends me a few hundred.
After he had made a success of it
the original actor came back to this
coast and hunted me up, and thai
conversation ensued:
"That piece 'Struck Oil' you orie-
nally wrote for me didn't you?"
"i es but you refused it.
"You only g it a little SI 00 for it
from Williain8oa, I'll give you $250
if you'll sign a paper stating that you
wrote it for me."
"Yon haven't got money enough to
get me to sign snch a paper."
1 Jl make you.
"Yon can go to "
"Incenoll says there is no such
place."
We talked that with Smith a lonz
time, and as the ahadowf began to
grow long, I bade him good bye.
Lately he has sent me for inspection
a pastoral, which ia brilliant and or
iginal, and which ere lone will be
published in book form, and it will
astocish the literary world, to able it
this hermit-poet in forests of Tilla
mook.
If you put a sign upon the door
with the word "Paint" printed upon
it half the passers-by will question
veracity of the statement and put on
an investigating finger. When there
is ice upon the sidewalk the case it
entirely different. People tumble to
that at ence without haying their at
tention called to it,
"I think myself." said Stetson,
ookinf at hit lovely yonng wife j jst
before they started tor tho ball, "l

being made over the decollette dress,
In fact the more 1 toe of it the more
convinced I become that there is not
enough of it to raise even a small row

there were timeB, of course, when
President Harrison was worried
and annoyed by office distributing.
That was t ut natural. Everybody
who has a great deal of business to
attend to has 6ulTered more or less
from worry. He had known the
president for twenty years and Mr.
Harrison's health was never better
than it is now. There probably
were times when then the presi
dent did not go to sleep within
three minutes and a half after ha
had touched the pillow, but it was
foolishness of the most advanced
kind to say. that the president waa
suffering from insomania.
"President Harrison never had a
ci;k day since he came to Wash
ington, except when he bad a
Blight cold," was Mr. Halford's T
concluding remark.
Adjutant General McChesierof
Indiana was in the private secreta
ry's room when the reporters were
talking the matter over with Mr.
Halford, and he agreed with the
secretary that the president was in
first-class condition.
