FIVE AGES OF WOMEN.
Only a prattling wee baby,
Danoing on mamms's knee;
A chubby aod dimpled obernb,
Pretty as Bhe could be.
Laughing and jumping and orowing,
Bubbling witb innocent mirth;
Mamma just thinks her a treasure,
Tbe darlitigest one on earth.
Only a laughing schoolgirl,
Fair as a budding rose;
Gazing with tender glanoes
On her young would-be beaux.
Never a oloud above her;
Never a oare has she;
No one oould help but love ber
In her simplicity.
Only a fair yonng lady,
Frond as a queen ot old :
Lovers who seek her favor
Meet with but glanoes oold.
Naught but a prinoe could woo her,
A prinoe witb aa honored name:
Love to her is but folly,
Tbe dream of ber life is fame.
Only a serious woman,
Charms slowly faiding away.
Her prinoe never oame to seek ber;
Her bead is threaded with grey.
LoDging for love that's denied ber, :
Fraying tor some one to woo:
Qone are ber queenly ambitions
Any old fellow will do.
Only a maiden ot fifty
Skillfully spreading ber net;
Still there is hope in her bosom
That someone may gobble ber yet.
Paints and ooemetios and powders,
Aod olad in tbe briefest ot dress.
When seen on her wbeel at a distanoe
You'd tbiuk her but twenty, or less.
Lou Vbbnon.
Remarkable Reaoue.

WEBF00T STATE'S DISPLAY AT OMAHA
Portland, April 12. Special corres
pondence to tbe Gazette. Oregon will
be much in evidenoe at the Trans-Mississippi
and International Exposition at
Omaha this summer.
Unless all signs fail and as yet signs
of failure so far as Oregon is oonoeroed
have not appeared every seotion of tbe
state will be properly represented and
interested in tbe display which the state
board of commission will make at the
city on the murky Missouri.
Tbe suooess achieved at the Colum
bian Exposition is to be repeated on a
far more extensive scale, aod the advan
tages to be derived from the extensive
advertising, it is thought, will be pro
portionately greater.
Tbe funds for tbe Oregon disnlav are
pledged, there is over 6000 feet of soaoe
oontraoted for on the ground floor of the
department building on wbiob tbe first
payment has been made and the public
spirited people of the state are respond
ing promptly to tbe calls for the money
defray expenses. The subsorintion
bonds will be floated in all parts of the
state and when the legislature meets it
expected that the money subscribed
will be refunded. Tbe estimated sum
necessary for an adequate display ia
820,000. On this it is designed to have
ipplied a surplus of $18,000 left over
from the state aDnronriatinn for the
World's Fair at Obioago.
Although the time ia short, everything
is being pushed forward by tbe enereetio
commissioners and they are determined
to be on band at the opening ot the ex
position. Tbe exhibits are well in band
and superintendent H. E. Dosoh who
euooesefully engiueered tbe World's Fair
Hsplay promises that he will carry off
as many premiums as five years ago.
The state aod people are in muob better
condition for tbe undertaking and the
mining and manufacturing interests are
everywhere increased.
Mining being the important feature
Bmong tbe state displays the larseat
paoe, 1430 feet, ia givsn to this. Horti
culture oomes next with 1200 feet: for
estry 1200; agrioulture 624; educational
640 feet. There will also he an "dream.
oabin" for state headquarters built in
oharacteristio style end decorated witb
bundreda of Oregon views. Orecron Is
tbe only ooast state which will be large-
represented, Washington's commis
sion soting too slowly and falling lo get
paoe.
Baker, Umatilla. Orant and Union
counties bavc tsken tbe initiative In tbe
proposition to be folly represented and
alao to raise funds. It was for ths uur-
pose of awakening tbe people to tbe vast
importance of the grand display of Ore
gon a mineral resources at the Trans-
Mississippi fair that the Oregon oommls.
sion sppointed by Oovernor Lord at
tended tba mining and Irrigation con
gress at Baker City. It was the first of
tbe kind and was very successful.
Wbile tbe entire state's resources arc
to reoelve adequate repreeeota.lon, min
ing is ons o( tbe most important. The
mining men, wben tbe matter was laid
before tbem, scarcely asked what the
popular subscription scheme was. but
Instes l requested to know "how muahT"
The reminder to Baker people tbat over
ia Iba begin valley was tbe premium
from the World's Oolomhlsn Einoaliinn
for tbs finest display of frolt was suffi
cient to cause great applause, aod the
commissioners predicted as great results
from tbe cxbibit to be mada at the
Omaha fair.
Tbe president of tbe aewlf oreaniiavt
mining and irrigation oonsreac at Oelaer
contributed 1250 cash to the exposition
fund and a valuahls collection of miner-
als. Ike Ouker. owner of the nr..i
