DRIVING A DOG TEAM.
Flying Over the Snows of Hortn
, . Canada In Bobber Skin.
1 The sled consists of a narrow box tour
feet long, the front half being covered
or boxed in, mounted on a floor eight
feet long resting on runners. In this
box the passenger sits, wrapped in rab
bit skins 60 that he can hardly move,
his head and shoulders only projecting.
In front and behind and on top of the
box is (placed all the luggage, covered
with canvas, and securely lashed, to
withstand all the jolting and possible
upsets, and our snowshoes within easy
reach. An important item is the dog
whip, terrible to the dog if used by a
skillful hand and terrible to the user
if he be a novice; for he is sure 'to half
strangle himself or hurt his own face
with the business end of the lash. The
whip had a handle nine inches long and
lash 30 feet, and weighed four pounds.
The lash was of folded and plaited seal
hide, and for five feet from the handle
measured five inches round, then for 14
feet it gradually tapered off, ending in
a single thong half an inch thick and
it feet lone. Wonderful the dexterity
with which a driver can pick out a dog
with this lash. The lash must be trail
ing at full length behind, when a jerk
and turn of the wrist causes it to fly
forward, the thick part first, and the
tapering and continuing the motion till
it is at full length in front, and the lash
making the fur fly from the victim.
But often it is made to crack over the
heads of the dogs as a warning. The
11 dogs were harnessed to the front of
the sled, each by a separate thong of
seal hide, all of different lengths, fas
tened to a light canvas harness. The
ntarest dog was albout 15 feet from the
skd, and the leader, with bells on her,
about 50 feet, the thongs thus increas
ing in length by about three feet. When
the thong is good the dogs spread out
like the fingers of a hand, but when the
snow is deep they fall into each other's
tracks in almost single file. As they
continually cross and recross each oth
er, the thongs get gradually plaited al
most up to the rearmost dog, when a
halt is called, the dogs are made to lie
down, and the driver carefully disen
tangles them, taking care that no dog
gets away meanwhile. They are guided
by the voice, using "Husky," that is
Eskimo, words; "owk," go to the
riirht: "arrah," to the left, and "holt,"
Rtraigbt on. But often one of the men
must run ahead on snowshoes, for the
dogs to follow him. London (VM.)

THE TOWN OF NOOOOU.
My friend, have you heard of the town of No-
good,
On the bank! of the river Blow,
Where blossoms the Waitawhlle flower, fair,
Where the Sometlmeorother scents the air,
And the aoft Goeaaiea grow,
It ilea in the valley of Whatatbeuse,
In the province of Lettersllde.
That Tiredfeeling la native there,
It's the home of the reckleaa Idoutcare,
Where the Giveups abide.
It stands at the bottom of Lazyhill,
And is easy to reach, I declare.
You've only to fold up your hands and glide
Down the slope of WeakwiU'a toboggan slide
To be landed quickly there.
The town Is as old aa the human race,
And It grows with the flight of yeara.
It is wrapped in the fog of idlers' dreamt.
Its streets are pared with discarded schemes,
And sprinkled with useless tears,
TheCollegebred fool and the Richman's heir
Are plentiful there, no doubt.
The rest of its crowd are a motley crew,
With every class except one In view
The Foolklller Is barred out.'
The town of Nogood is all hedged about
By the mountains of Despair.
No sentinel standi on It's gloomy walls,
No trumpet to battle and triumph calls, .
For cowards alone are there.
My friends, from the dead-alive town Nogood
If you would keep far away,
Just follow your duty through good and ill,
Take this for your motto, "I can, I will,"
And llva up to it each day.

GREAT EMBARRASSMENT.
If ii
ot
r.n.fil to Royalty by the Sale
Private Paper.
Everv now and again the royal fam
ily in England is dismayed by the sale
at auction of confidential letters and
private papers the contents of which
thev have every reason to desire nn
known to the general public. Thus
just at the present moment a lot of val
uable paiiers which formerly belonged
to Queen Victoria's uncle, the duke of
Sussex, and which at his death remained
in the nosscssion of members of his
household, are being disposed of to the
highest bidder. They comprise a quan
tity of very confidential letters written
by the queen to her uncle, Rome of them
relating to domestic nlTairs ana quar
rels, while others coutain caustic coin
merits on people who fondly imagined
that they occupied a very high place
in the esteem of her majesty a belief
shared by their children now living.
It is with the object of avoiding such
contretemps ns this that the rule if
now rigorously enforced which pro-
vides tlint whenever any person dies
who has held office in connection with
any of the roynl household all his pri
vate pnperB shall le turned over for ex
animation to some trusted court official
who, wherever possible, shall fulfill the
duties of executor of the will.
This rule was first inaugurated some
40 years ago, when the death and sale
of the effects of Sir John Conroy, who
had been chief of the household to the
mother of Queen Vlctorin during the
entire childhood and youth of herinn
jesty, had the effect of placing upon the
market a large number of most painful
letters relating to the queen herself,
to her father's moral and financial
shortcomings and to the scandalous ru
mors that connected his name with
that of the duchess of Kent, rumors for
which it scarcely is neeesRary to Bay
there was no foundation save malice.

A Brother's Tribute.
It would be appropriate If, at Col. Ingersoll's
funeral, there should be read above his bier the
words that he spoke above his dead brother
Ebon. Home of them are marvels of beauty.
Hear this:
Be had not passed on life's highway the stone
that marks the highest point; but, being weary
for a moment, he lay down by the wayside, and
using his burden for a pillow, fell Into that
dreamless sleep that kisses down his eyelids
still. While yet In love with life and raptured
with the world, he passed into silence and
pathetic dust. A wreck at least
must mark the end of each and all. And every
life, no matter If its every hour is rich with love
and every moment Jeweled with a Joy, will, at
its close become a tragedy as aad and deep and
dark as can be woven of ttio wary and woof of
mystery and death. . He added
to the sum of human Joy; and were every oue
to whom he did some loving service to bring a
blossom to his grave, ha would sleep tonight
beneath a wilderness of flowers.
Life is a narrow veil between the cold and
barren peaks of two eternities. We strive in
vain to look beyond the heights. We cry aloud
and the only answer is the echo of onr wailing
cry. From the voiceless lips of the unreplylng
dead there comes no word ; but in the night of
death hope sees a star and listening love can
hear the rustle of a wing.
He who sleeps here, when dying, mistaking
the approach of death for returning health,
whispered with his latest breath, "I am better
now." Let us believe, In spite of doubts and
dogmas, of fears and tears, that these dear
words are true of all the countless dead.
The record of a generous life runs like a vine
around the memory of our dead, aud every
sweet, unselfish act is now a perfumed flower.
Speech cannot contain our love,
Thore was, there is, no gentler, stronger, man

The following climate and crop report, fur
nished by A. B. Wollaber, section director, Port
land, Or., is for the week ending July 31, 1899:
Weather Bright sunshine and high temper
atures prevailed during the week. Thunder
storms occurred over sections of the plateau
district on Friday aud Saturday. The rainfall
ranged from .02 to .80 of an inch. Tho mean
temperature for the week averaged 70 degrees,
which is four higher than for the preceeding
week and three lower than for the correspond
ing week of last year. The maximum temper
ature ranged from 88 to 98 degrees in the Colum
bia river valley, and from 78 to 86 degrees over
the plateau region. The minimum tempera
tures In the valley ranged from 64 to 64 degrees
and over the plateau region from 48 to 60 de
grees. The wlndi were northerly in direction
and light in force.
Crops-The Bhowers of the 28th and 29th were
of great benefit to all vegetation, and while it
delayed harvesting fall sown grain In some
instances, the general good done will more
than repay for the time lost. The grain crop in
most sections continues in good condition. The
reports of damage from shrivelling, caused by
the hot winds, seem to be confined to section of
Oilliam, Morrow, Wasco and Umatilla counties.
The extent of the damage is not known at the
present time, but appears to be limited to re
seeded wheat on Summer fallow. Harvesting
Is well under way. Threshing has commenced
lu Wasco county, and the grain has turned out
well, both as to quantity and quality. Oats are
ripening rapidly, which the rain greatly bene
fitted. Barley is aDout all cut ; a good crop has
been secured.
Haying is over. The dry weather Is not
favorable to the second crop of clover, but so
tar it has not been injured; cutting of same
continues.
Hops are in blossom. The vines show a
healthy growth. Spraying was carried on dur
ing the week, and this, combined with the
warm weather, destroyed the lice.
Indications point to a plentiful crop of water
melons, aud a few have already beeu marketed,
The warm weather was conducive to the
growth of corn, which is In tassel and doing
fine. The rain put new life into gardens and a
rapid growth of all vegetation will ensue. Po
tatoes are in fine condition.
The fruit prospects remain unchanged. Cherry
picking Is about over. Blackberry are ripening
rapidly; indications point to a short crop.
The current weather is beneliclal to ine
growth and development of sugar beets.
Pastures on foothills are drying up, except
where mountain streams keep them green;
those In the valley are In very good condition.
Stock is in excellent form.
Excepting the burning of spring grain, which
has occurred in several counties of the state'
the crop prospects of Oregon are in a fair con
dition.

Hold In the sea.
The Australian scientist, Prof. Liver-
sidge, has rather conclusively demon
atrated that in every ton of sea water
there is from one-half to a full grain of
gold. Admitting Liversldge'a opinions
to be correct, the subject opens up a
line of interesting speculation. Thus,
at the t.a me rate, a cubic mile of sea
water would contain between 130 and
2(10 tons of solid gold. Fixing the value
of gold ot $20 an ounce which is some
what less than it is valued at now a ton
of gold ia worth a little short of $500,
000, In other words, a cubic mile of sea
water contains gold to the value of be
tween $65,000,000 and $130,000,000. Now,
if as computed', there is on the surface
of the globe from 300,000,000 to 400,000,
000 cubic miles of the ocean, allowing
half a grain of goM to the ton, the total
amount of the precious metal in the sea
would be above thirty-five million; bil
lion dollars-. At one grain per ton. it
would be about ncventy million billion

Hubert Bonner's Love of the Horse.
Robert Bonner loved the horse, sharing in
the appreciation of a nobly bred and blooded
animal with some of the great creative geniuses
of New York City. Lake Commodore Van
derbllt, he had the keenest understanding and
profoundest admiration uot only of the power
and the nature of a horse, but of the wonder
ful anatomy and nervous organism of the ani
mal. He was ttrst hi the belief that no man lues
better to drive st top speed a perfectly trained,
wift horse than that horse Itself liked
to be driven by one whom it recognizes
master. And It was not only in driving,
but In constant study of the norsc
that he found that recreation and
change occupation which his physicians coun
seled him he must discover if he were to pre
serve his health. In a little while after he be
gan to drive fast horso-never for money nor

has taught many men who had been reared In
prejudice of all association with a horse that
there was nothing that was unworthy or de
morlizlng, but everything that Bhould quicken
s man' mental, physical, and even help his
moral nature, In proper association with the
finest gift of God to men in all
the animal world, aa Bonner believed the
horse to be. He made the American trotting
horse possible, and to his influence Is due
that reasonable admiration of the horse
which now Is found in every part of the laud.

over what ia known as " the scenio route
of the world." It matters not at what
season of the year the trip is made; at
00 time does the scenery grow monoto

of the beauties ot nature. One moment

the next you are above the snow line,
skirtloa peaks tbat tower above yoo
until tbey seem almost te reach the sky.
One ot the ohsraoterislioe ot the Oolo

perature are never met with. It is
neither so oold io winter nor so warm In
summer as upou the liuea ot railway
which or oas the deserts and plains. The
