Contrary to all previous experience,
money is flowing in large amount to this
center at the middle of October the sea
son at which it has always gone to the
interior for moving the crops. All the

free for employment in the larger enter
prises and promote a general revival of
business."

duty in conduciing cases for the state. It
is, perhaps, needless to say more. But it

that he wts Ehootmg at a deer and Gold

We hope our informant is correct, as such a
society will act as a great incentive to the
study of the English classics, and the long
winter evening could not be speut to a
greater advantage.
We learn from the Neva that arrange
ments are being made in Prineville to

Prineville nines. A paper was circulated
last week to ascertain how much money
could be raised in the way of a purse,
etc. The subscriptions are liberal, and,
as the management is in good and com
petent hands, we have no doubt of the
success of the getting up of the games. '

To-morrow is the last day of the indus
trial exposition in Portland. It has not
been as successful as former years by reaion
of the finamial depression; but the exhibits
of the northwest have been equal to those
of other years.
It is stated that tne Southern Pacific com

the farmers are putting in their fall wheat

A Sorry State of Affairs.
The Palouse country is a sorry spectacle
this year by reason of the constant rains
damaging the grain harvest. This region is
undoubtedly the garden spot of the north
west, and it can raise more bushels of wheat
to the acre than anv soot in Oregon and
Washington. Usually the crops are won
derful, often producing as high as 50 or 60
bushels to the acre; but the rains came
early this season, and the grain was dam
aged in the stacks on in such a condition
that it could not be threshed. The result
has been most deplorable, and farmers, gen
erally considered well-to-do, have lost their
full summer's work. Of course this hss af
fected all branches of business, and, coming
as it does on the heels of the Democratic
hard times, the country is in a terrible con
dition. We have conversed with persons
who have visited different towns in the
northwest, and the universal verdict is that

schools of this description have been long

much to make the fast vanishing home life
enjoyable. Our good wishes are with the

Fossil Journal: Friday evening about
dusk, at his sheep camp near Lost Valley,
Geo. Hardie met with an accident that is
causing him considerable pain and may
disfigure him somewhat. He had been
cleaning his rifle, when, hearing a coyote
howling close by the camp, he hastily put
the pieces together aud went out to take
a shot at the varmint, which was in plain
sight but a few rods away. In his haste'
he tailed to put the gun together correctly,
with tbe result that when he fired the
needle flew out, passed through his nose
and lodged in his right cheek. The coy
ote escaped. George's brother Willie
came in after Dr. Howard, who went out
and tended the patient At present he
has much more than his ordinary amount
ot cheek, but, unless com plications arise,
he will not be permanently disfigured.
Seven Million Bushels Lost.
It is half amusing in the gloom of
drowned crops to read interviews with men
who travel along the Northern Pacific rail
road 100 miles from the heart of the Palouse
valley, says an exchange, hooting at tbe idea
that two thirds or about 7,000.000 bu-hels
of the crop of Whitman county was des
troyed by the recent heavy storms. One
man said the loss could not be so heavy, be
cause 40 per cent was cut before tbe ram
set in. Forty per cent waa cut, true
enough, but four fifths ot that 40 per cent
is totally ruined. Most of it was in stacks,
and those stacks are thoroughly rotted
Nearly all of the threshed grain, too, was
lyiug out, and of course the priucipal part
of it was damaged to such an extent as to
condemn it tor merchantable purpose.
Fully half ot the standing grain was
knocked down and neatly all that is down
has sprouted, and much of that still stand
ing is swolleu and ready to sprout.
Lake D. Wolfard, of Tacoma, who hai
several thousand acres in wheat a few miles
north of Colfax, says after a thorough in
spection of bis crop and other fields in eyery
part of the county, that it would be hard to
get one-third of a crop from Whitman. He
places tbe loss of the county at 6 500,000
bushels. J. W. Arrasmitb, speaker of the
house of representatives, says the loss wi'l
go above 7,000,000, for very little east of
Colfax will be saved.
Improving the Iee.
Among tbe many insects indispens
able to man are the cochineal hug,
the silkworm and the honey bee. To
the latter Dr. Lamborn s attention
has recently turned, doubtless with a
view to bringing about the advent of
the much talked of "coming bee."
Although apiculture is the oldest
economic pursuit, it is only within
the last century that much scientific
thought has been directed m the per
fection of the stock. Much has been
accomplished in the line of developing
a gentler bee, but at the expense of
other qualities. To evolve an ideal
bee some points must be considered
which have hitherto been overlooked.
A combination of desirable points of
various races and an elimination of
objections must require much pa
tience, time and money. Entomo

A Raflromd Man Thrilliug Eseape From
at Crowd of Boisterous Tough.
'1 stole a 20-ton locomotive and
four flat cars once," said Irwin Dan
iel, chairman of the Mulhatton club
that was holding a catch-as-catch-can
m the Lindeil rotunda. "I was at
Magdalena, Mexico, shortly after the
opening of the Sonora railway. The
feeling against the 'Americanos' was
quite bitter at the time, some of the
railway construction crew having
been pretty tough specimens of
Uncle Sam's song birds. I was quiet
ly passing down the street one day
when a gang of drunken greasers
concluded that hanging would im
prove my personal appearance, and
before I suspected harm a lariat
was thrown about my neck, and I
was brought to earth with a jar that
nearly drove my spinal column
through my broad brimmed straw
hat
"The telegraph line was in course
of construction, the poles being up,
but the wires not yet strung. To
ward one of these poles with its cross
bar the Mexicans dragged me over the
Btony street, while a crowd quickly
gathered and began to pelt me with
pebbles. I was rapidly choking to
death and realized that if I expected
to continue to send in fat expense ac
counts to my house I had best begin
to get a hustle established in busi
ness.
"I managed to fish out my jack-
knife and cut the lariat before it
pulled my head off, and as I got on
my feet I pulled my revolver and be
gan to shoot. In 10 seconds I had
the street to myself, but I realized
that the treacherous natives would
soon begin to bushwhack me and
hurried down toward the railroad,
hoping to hnd a mustang to carry
me out of danger. I found no mus
tang, but a locomotive and four flat
cars loaded with telegraph poles
stood on the mam track. The en
gineer had left the cab, and a lazy
Mexican fireman was lounging out
of the window. I bounced into the
cab and pulled open the throttle.
The Mexican raised his voice in
protest, but I covered him with my
empty revolver and ordered run) to
fire up. It was 54 miles to Nogales,
on the Arizona line, ahd I covered it
in an hour and 10 minutes. Once
across the line I was all right, and as
I didn t know the result of my pistol
practice I can tell you that I left the
land of the erstwhile Montezumas
with a profoundly thankful heart."

Sirs. Calliper TeUs the Colonel About an
Interesting Incident.
"Jason," said Mrs. Calliper to her
husband as they sat at dinner,
"when I was. coming back from
Cometville the other day, after my
visit to Mrs. Gratebar, the train boy
went through the cars, as usual, with
papers, magazines and candy, and
when he was making the trip with
the candy he threw a package into
the lap of a little girl who was sit
ting with her mother. They were
nice looking people, but it seemed to
me somehow as though they were
very poor. I imagined that she was a
widow and that she had to look out
now for every penny. . Well, the lit
tle girl picked up the candy package
and looked at it all over and read
what it said on it, and finally she
said to her mother: -
" 'Mamma, can't I have this candy?'
"And her mother said softly:
" 'No, dearie. I wish you could,
but mamma can't spare the money.'
The little girl didn't say a word
more, ishe just held the package
and kept it ready to hand to the
train boy when he should come
along. It was plain that merely to
hold it was a pleasure.
'Sitting in the next seat back of
the mother and her child was a
woman who couldnx help hearing
what had been said. She had of
course kept quiet, but when she saw
the little girl fitting there holding
the candy she couldn't keep still any
longer, and she leaned forward and
said:
" 'Madam, I don't wish to intrude,
but it would afford me great pleas
ure if you would permit me to buy
the candy for the little girl.
"Of course this was an intrusion,
Jason, but the mother couldn't fail
to realize from the woman's voice
and manner the spirit in which the
offer was made, and I am glad to say
that she accepted it with a smile and
a pleasant 'I thank you,' and the lit
tle girl looked up, smiling, and said,
So do L' And so you see, Jason,

Yes, Cynthia," said Colonel Calli

the woman was that gave it to her."

How Asbestos Is Mined.
The uses to wrucn asbestua is ap
plied are so varied that tbe mining
of the mineral has become quite an
extensive industry. In the majority
of mines the Rtone is blasted out, ma
chine drills being used to bore the
blast holes. The crude asbestus in
the most modern plants is carried up
an inclined railway to a stone crusher,
where it is broken with the adhering
rock into pieces not much over 14
inches in size. From the crusher the
ore drops on an inclined sieve, which
is shaken continually by suitable
machinery, the loose fiber and dust
going directly to the cleaning and
grading inw.nmnn, wiuie we larger
pieces are dropped on a revolving
table, where the worthless rock is
removed by hand.
The larger pieces are 8tDl further
crushed and sorted, the object being
to procure a clean fiber free from
dirt. The chief difficulty in this
method of preparing the material
lies in the fact that if asbestus is
crushed with a considerable amount
of stone until the latter is reduced to
powder the long and most valuable
part is partially destroyed, while if
the stone is not entirely reduced be
fore grading it a large amount of
waste is the result. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
