wanted to marry him, but be was too
poor to buy furniture.
One day a bad man onme to him and
offered him $25 to become a drunkard.
The poor mac was dreadfully tempted,
beoause he- waoted to bfoome riob
euoogh to marry the oandy-store lady's
beautiful daughter; but when be got to
tbe distillery door with tbe bad man, be
said, 'I will not break my pledge even to
get riob. Qet tbee behind me, Satan.'
It was well that he did so, for that
very evening be found apooketbookoon
taing $1,000,000 in gold, whioh bad been
loBt by a boy who had just returned
from Sumpter or Cape Nome, and bad
hurried down tbe street to dip if to a
game of football, which I, being a girl,
would not do.
Well, tbe good young man went and
told the oandy-store lady's daughter
what he bad fonnd, and shoved ber tbe
pocketbook nearly full of money, and so
they were married. Tbey had a lovely

she saw some rabbits,
She waoted to oatob them, so she ran
after them, but Ihey would not be
onught.
At last she got so very tired that she
had to sit dowu. After awhile she heard
a rustling in the leaves near her, and a
little man stepped ont and Blood bit, ire
ber, and said:
"I was one of those bunuies that yon
obiieed todny. A long tnn9 ago. a wioked
fairy obauged me and my sister into
rabbits and told us that we could never
regain our human form unless a little
girl chased uh, So I will give you a
wish." The litde girl wna eilent for
few minutes and that, she oiiid; " ,: .'. r,-
"I want a little fairy to play witb."
"Very well," said tbe little nr-tn, "'your
wish shall be granted. "
la a littlo while a beautiful fairy ap
peared in a golden carriage. She said:
"lake me borne with you, and in your
yard you will find my bouse with many
other fairies in i,anr1 we will serve you.'
Tane did as she w s bid, nnd when slit
got home she found a house which odd
tained 100 rooms. It whs invimb'e to

WOOL MAUKKTS.

The American Wool and Cotton Ri-
porter of Feb. 22 says:
Tbe wool market is very dull. Man
ufacturers are too busy la attending to
the details oonnected with the orders
which tbey have reoeived, io j lurneyiog
between their mills and New York, aud
some of them in g ttiog started oo their
tight--'eight samples, to pay muo'j air
tention to wool. Tbey are generally
well stooked with wool. Tbey are there
fore praotioally out of tbs nrirket, and it
wool 1 not surprise tbe trade if tbey
should remiia out of it for sorm little
lime to come. Wa tt demnd there in
oontinues to be mostly for 4 bl.iod stook,

tbe market, but there ieoertaioly mire

that iu l ie course of 60 days they will

many members of Ibe trade are looking

Wool growers io the interior are still

K Wild and Weird Region Fall of Ileal
Romance.
The land of the wilder Ncz Peroes
Joseph's band tbe Wallowa, was always
a land of romanoe, until Frank MoOully
and bis fellow-stockmen began to raise
bogs and found national banks there and
infliot civilization upon it.
Its Imoaba ia one of tbe wonders of
the world. The name in Nez Perce
means a song of love from tbe grave,
and wi'S given to this beautiful river be
cause an ftjoftan strain is often beard in
tbe Imnaba canyon.
This echo attracted General Howard's
scouts during the Joseph war in '77.
Tbey heard it eol-o so distinctly that
they returned to tbe command and re
ported the disoovery of a warrior baud
in tbe oiinyon, engaged in a war-dance.
The speotacle was described as more
weird than Burne' danoe of the goblins.
They were reported to be danoiDg to an
unearthly music.
Thht was in tbe darkness of tbe night,
In tbe light of the early morn, when
Ad, Chapman and Lieut. O. E. 8. Wood
came dowu tbe old-time trail to investi
gate, nod, I4ent JOUJajlaj . now, flgjjj-,

over the rooks ready for the opening
shot, the mUHio of the night before died
awBy in tbe weird washings of the water
falls, and tbe speotral danoera of the
sooatg' imagiuution vanished iu tbe
bidden recesses of the rugged csnyoo.
Tbe iudinus say that a spirit Rings a
love song in this grand canyou whenever
winds and waters are at war. It is b
belief thai these elements grind up imps
ot darkness whenever these spectral In
habitants c( the world prevail in sufll
oieot uumbcra to endanger earthly men
and women. This Imnaba oaoyon, witb
its impregnable wbIIs, tumbling waters
and mysterious changing wind ourrents,
is regarded witb superstition. It is
mill of the Oods that grinds up tbe imps
that are enemies of 1 ml inn mankiud. I'
ia believed that the same spirit that im
pels tbe daredevil warrior to rush to bis
death,, brlnga tbeee imps to their de
struotion.
There is a legend that the roost beau
tiful maiden that ever belonged to the
Ness Perce tribe onoe repaired to this
oaoyon to sing, so that the eohos would
convey her eng to her dead lover; and
there she wus captured by the imps sod
taken to their caves, where she remains
invisible transformed iu body, but not
inspirit.
Her name was Bailie Balerntus, and
nhe whs mneb more basutiful thanHallie
Winnemucoa. Hbs was so called from
tbe fact that he never put any sule-

Captain Forge was a gallant man, killed
at the bead of his troop in Cuba,
and Windy Jack le low a policeman at

WHERE IT GETS COLD.
Millard Freucu Tolls of Thermometers M
Below ou the Yukon.
L. W. Briggs has received from bis
brother-in-law, M. F. French, a lotter
written at Bonanza, near Dawson, Feb
ruary 11, in which Mr. French says:
We have been having a hard time
getting mail here, and it does look as
though the Canadian government ought
to give us better mail facilities after tax
ing us as it does. But it seems as
though the Canadians thought it lots of
fun to tax us and take our money to
help the British kill off a few Dutch in
South Africa, whose only offense is in
treating the English the same way as
the Canadians jare treating us. Tho
British have no more rights in the
Tratievaal, and no greater grievances
against the Boers than we have against
the Canadiuns.
"Jobs are not plentiful here, but I have
one at $8 a day. But I have been sick
and unable to do any hard work for two
weeks. I am untlor a doctor's care, and
he thinks I will soon be able to go to
work again.
"1 ought to have gone to Capo Nome
tat "wnniror. ' I foartba i ibed tho
opportunity of a lifetime. Now I con
sider it too late. There are many peo
ple going from bore this whiter. Just
imagine a trip of more than 1000 miles
through the snow with the thermometer
liable to bo 90 below 'and the trail bad.
On December 20 It was 52 below here."
Coyotes Cleaned Out.
Oscar Schafor, who has so nccoptably
(illed the ollico of stock inspector of
Morrow county, is in Heppner this
week, and has resigned bis position on
account of now living over the line in
Giant county. His new home is 42
miles from Heppner, and he runs there
a band of 1 100 choice ewes, who will
begin lambing April 10.
Mr. Hcliafur has an excellent range,
with some bottom and limitless mahog
any and junipor ridge. When he wont
thore last your the coyotos wore bad,
uml killed over 100 of his sheep. But
now the coyotos are so well cleaned out
that the lordly gentlemen sheep are al
lowed to roam at will without herding
a mile from camp, and are not moloHted.
Tho campaign started against coyotes
liiHt full lias resulted in more than 200
of thorn being killed. Oscar and bis
herder killed 17, Pel Siiiiinernoii killed
22 and Jas. Gra.e, at mouth of Wall
creek, killed 152. The latter sbot a
worthless cayitse and flllod the carcass
with Htricbnine,and sunt oiu invilat'oiiig,"
mid the coyotes who cand vo tho foast
dropped into a long sleep before they
had wandered away 40 yards.
Oscar likes his new home very much,
and has (10 tons of bay, but has not had
to feed bis sheop this winter. They
keep fat on rango graes, and he has a
puck of hound pups now taking lessons
in chasing coyotes. Slump are all doing
well over there, the wool ou Mr.
Schafor's being already full shearing,
length and juet as clean as the well
groomed hair on Tap Simon's beautiful
trotting colt. His sheep are not cor
rilled, but luy out on the grass at night
just the same as in summer time.
Mr. Schafor says that Monument, bis
