Some time Sunday night a burglar entered Marsh & Medler's drug store at Wasco, went through the safe and secured about $1,000 In cash. Entrance was effected by prying open the back door of the sto-e with a chisel after an unsuccessful attempt had been made to get through a rear window. When once inside the burglar had no diffi culty in getting into the safe which was not locked, the combination not being turned on, though the drawers in which the money was kept were locked. These were readily opened and about $200 of money belonging to Marsh & Medler and $800 belooging to B. F. Medler was taken. A number of checks and other papers in the safe were not disturbed, and some $500 worth of jewelry in the show case was not molested. An investigation of the premises re. vealed the tracks of the burglar, but no clew to his identity could be had from them, for he had carefully wrapped his feet in gunny sacks before going to the building. A hand car had been stolen during the night from tbe Columbia Southern depot, and was found at Biggs the next morning, so it is supposed the burglar, after getting the money had boarded the hand car, run it to Biggs and there taken the O. R. & N. fur the west, as . he could hardly have reached Biggs in time to take the east bound train. Sheriff Holder, of Sher man county, is investigating the mat ter, but at last accounts had discovered no clew that would lead to the discov ery of the burglar.

Shortly after 3 o'clock Monday morning, fire broke out In the Willed restaurant in Pendleton, and before It was checked, the restaurant, Platzoe der & Wingers' meat market, Kobler's saloon and lodging house, were burn ed out, leaving a bl vacant snot in one of the principal business bloeks in the city. " The fire originated fn the kitchen of the restaurant, where Miss Tucker, one of tbe proprietors, was preparing bre i k fast for two men who had jutt arrived from the country. The flames soon spread to the adjoining buildings, and were only checked after over an hour's hard fight by the firemen, and all the wooden buildings up to the Thompson-Barnhart brick bad been consumed. The loss occasioned by the fire is estimated to be about $15,000, partially covered by insurance. The owners of the land where the fire occurred contemplate rebuilding with brick.

The phenomenon of lightning is the signal that announces the comi:i to gether of different electric currents in the restoration of equilibrium. All life is electricity, the stomach is a re generator, the brain is a battery, sc.ys the Pittsburgh Dispatch. When one is killed by lightning, death is due to absorption to a loss of this vital Huid, or whatever it may be termed, that im pels the physical engine. A thunder cloud is charged with positive elec tricity, the earth below is charged negatively. Any object below this Joud is similarly charged with this negative current. A discharge from ibove takes place, the currents meet, gnition ensues, the expansion of tlie jases produces a vacuum, the aif comes together again with a report and this s thunder. A late view is, when one animate ob ject is struck dead by lightning, that che upward and not the downward current is the agent. The fact that no bird on the wing has been known to be killed by hghtning is not con clusive in sustaining this latter view of the method of lightning in produc ing death. When a tree is thus struck, the sod is' frequently lifted away from the roots in such a manner as to indicate Jie downward passage of the stroke. An Indlspeasaolv Volume. . "The-Earth Girdled" is the only book in existence that gives a history of all the different-- reFgions of the world, what their votaries actually be lieve, the various forms of worship, and the national, social and domestic influence that each exercises upon the people who believe In the a. It is the only book that compares all religions with Christianity, and their influence upon the destinies of the world. The last struggle between lig'it and dark ness s ems to be at hand. This is ex emplified in the death struggle now taking place in Armenia and elsewhere. Dr. Talmagu's new took therefore be comes an absolute necessity. It is tbe only book that throws open the flood gates of light upon these matters, aud no thinking person cm afford to deny himself the benefits of such a work.

A popci.au combination is very fine French cloth with sleeves, belt and shoulder-ruQcs of shaded velvet. Shaded velvets arc quite as populai for summer as they were during the winter. As millinery trimmings, when judiciously used; nothing can be more elegant and desirable. New jackets have sleeves large enough to accommodate the enormous puffiness of the dress shoulders, and while this, of course, accentuates the size of the arm, that fact seems to be no objection. Pabasols seem to have become mere ly forms on which to exhibit the most enormous quantities cf lace and other thin materials. The amount of goods that may be but into one of the fash ionable parasols of the day is almost nast belief.

In the ' beginning God made Adam )ut of the earth, but he did not make jlus-kabe (the Indian God), says Abbe L. Alger in the Regular Science Alonthly. Glus-kabe made himself out of the dirt that was kicked up in the creation of Adam. lie rose and walked about, but he could not speak until the Lord opened his lips. God made the earth and the sea, and then He took counsel with Glus-kabe concerning them. lie asked him if it would be better to have tbe rivers run up on one side of the earth and down on the other, but Glus-kabe said: "No, they must all run down one way." Then the Lord asked him about the ocean, whether it would not do to have it always lie still. Glus-kabe told Him: "No! It must rise and fall, or else it would grow thick and stagnant." "How about fire?" asked the Lord; "can it burn all the time and nobody put it out?" Glus-kabe said: "That would not do, for if anybody got burned and fire ;ould not be put out, they would die; but if it could be put out, then the burn would get welL" So he answered all the Lord's ques tions. Irishmen in High Position. It. is not only in the United States that the sons of Erin have secured a place among the leaders of the people. This fact has been called to mind by Ihe circumstance that while all France was mourning one illustrious Irijhmas in. the person of honest old Harsh a MacMahon, the masses of the popula tion of Austria-IIungary were acclaim ing another Irishman, the Irish peer. Viscount Taafe, who holds the post of prime minister of Austria, for bring ing forward a bill in favor of universa suffrage. In Spain one of the most in fluential military leaders is a genera" of Hibernian origin, O'Ej-an by name who held the post of minister of wz during the former administration of Ui present premier; while the. queen re gent's private secretary aud mo trusted adviser and friend bears tb name of Murphy. The littlj king governess is also an Irish woman; at so, too, is the governess of the youc queen of Holland. The tutor of En peroi William was an Irishman naine Audanne. Dreadfully Serroas.

Harmony in the I'aaU I am tickled to know that Wagner was an exact and expensive dresser, and that Beethoven was a sloven, with an old coat and slippers trodden down at the heels, says a writer in the Con temporary Review. It interests me to hear that Faganini always carried a shirt in his fiddle case, because he per spired so profusely over his solos that he had to change between the parts if he played twice. I even care to learn that Mendelssohn was a perfect child about pastry, which he could never re sist, and which he always ate (especial ly cherry pie) and which always dis agreed with him; that Schumann in jured his, third finger by tying it back to his wrist with a string, because he hoped to make it more supple it end ed, however, in his almost losing the use of it; that Kulow got up in the night to piny over passages which he thought he was likely to play inaccurately at his prodigious recitals. When Thalberg was at the height of his fame he wouldn't even carry an umbrella, for fear of it cramping the muscles of his hand; Malibran loved i-othing so much as romping with Moscheles children on the floor; Paganini was so stingy that he would stand up under shelter in the rain and keep a whole opera house full wait ing sooner than call a cab. Prof. Ella told me he found him one day crouch ing under the Arcade in Eegent street, and that he gave this artless explana tion: "Hackney coaches," he said, "in London were so expensive!" and this when he had doubled the prices at the opera house where he played and was rolling in money. THE ANTS TALKED. How a Naturalist Irove:l They Conversed with Eh other. It is becoming the general belief among naturalists that all living crea tures have some communication with each other, at least to the extent of making their wants, fears, etc., known to others of their epecics. A writer on ants recently investigated the matter as far as those interesting little insects are concerned. He saw a drove of ants of a small black variety, which were apparently moving to new quar ters, those going in a certain direction all carrying eggs or sick and helpless relatives, while those moving in the opposite direction appeared to have just deposited their burdens and to be returning for another load of "house hold effects." lhey were probably pretty well along with their work, judging by tne leisurely way in which they would frequently put' their, heads together, as. though chatting about their new quarters,, or some other interesting subject It being n question in the naturalist's mind whether they were really talking7 or not, he hit on the expedient of murder ing one of their number to see if the others would run and tell what had happened. . He says: "Tbe lye-witnesa es of the murder hastened away and laid their heads together with everyant they met, whereupon all would turn and scamper away. ... No more ants passed along that path dur'ng tho aay." CHBISTH.A9 IN THED AtLE. It Was a Happy vent-for Almost All "' Resident! of the City. Christmas, 1897, will ever have many pleasant remembrances to tho people of this city. ' The day itself was like many other holidays, quiet and peace ful, the weather being sof sand pleasant, Ithought occasional rain storms prt- vnted outdoor promonades. But thote whoentured out in the residence por tion oftbe city needed no information that the small boys and girls had fai ed happily on Christmas eve, for on every hand could be seen 'Jjttle lads and las sies with hands full ofcoys, and with beaming faces that Sprfk"e louder than words of the bounties Santa Clause had bestowed Through open windows could be seen Chri9tmas trees that had given up their fruits the night before, but still remained as tokens of Christ mas tide. Approoriato services were held at mbst of the churches Christmas eve, where trees had been arranged and where appropriate Christmas programs were rendered early in the evening, after which the youngsters repaired to their homes to enjoy the evening with parents and friends. Indeed Christ mas this year hat been a most pleas ant event, good times having made it possible for all to bestow tokens of love and affection where such gifts were denied in years past.

Housewives who think the coopera tive kitchen is so far in the future that it would be xitsui d to look forward to it for relief from daily drudgery will be interested to hear that a kitchen with the same end 'n view as the cooperative has been, in successful operation for nearly 50 years, says the Kew York Press. The Association AKmentaire, of Grenoble, France, is a purely municipal affair. The city owns it and supplies meals at cost in its own restaurant or delivers them at private homes. Everything at the Association Ali mentaire is r.s good as money can buy. The cooks are as clever as any in France, which is saying a great deal. The pro visions are bought in the best markets and are carefully selected. The serv ice is excellent. The dining-rooms are of several grades, according to the fur nishings and the attendance, so that nil tastes may be accommodated. One may dine there for three cents on bread and soup and bo satisfied, or one may pay more and have a full course din ner. In the best rooms, which are mar ble-floored and decoratod with much elegance, there are waiters who look for tips as naturally as though they were in the swellest of Parisian cafes. Pure wines, which have been properly aged, are served at about eight cents a liter. There is no financial prJiit to the city in running this huge restaurant which serves same 15,000 meals a day. The charges are based on the cost of the ma terials used, the employment of help and the amount, spent in keeping the utensils, machinery and building in re pair. CHINESE HAIrt bOAr-- Is Disagreeable to Look At, Bat lias an Excellent Effect. In tbe great empire of China you run across some odd things, writes Mar gherita. Arlina Hamm in the New York Times. One of these is what we might call hair 6oap, and is used for Shampoo ing purposes. How it is made I never could find out, but from the mere ap pearance of the article I should say it was composed of fine curled hay, oat meal, wheat husks, grease and a little borax. It looks for all the world like some of the oil cakes which dairymen feed to their cows in winter time. In the market it is sold by the cake, or to those who cannot afford the luxury in small pieces. The cake is round or elliptical in outline, from an inch to two inches in thickness, from twelve inches to two feet in length and from eight to fifteen inches in width. It must weigh two or three pounds. In using it your maid breaks off a piece about as large as an ordinary cake of toilet soap. When applied to the hair it produces a fair lather and the hay and husk separate and work their way into the scalp. The rubbing causes them to polish the scalp as well as the hair itself. Thes-absequcntrinsingcar-ries away all "these vegetable ingredi ents and leaves the hair and scalp in beautiful condition the former soft and silky, the latter pink and warm. While the hair soap is very ugly to look at and seems altogether ridiculous, yet if you use it once you are simply charmed with your new acquisition and employ it regularly thereafter. while Miss Minnie Goetz, of Portland, came furiht f t from the place and got tht, booby. ATtsr the gatces grew tiresome, an t l. gait lunch, was served, and ii was ao early hour in the morn ing when the gusss depart-d.

They sang and quarreled in tbe song 'I Don't Want to Play in Your Yard." and by tbe way they went at it, one would imagine they meant it.
