SWEETEST SOUND.
One morning, as I lay dreaming,
A bird on my window-sill,
lis tiny head uplifted,
Was carolling forth at will ;
And as I woke and listened
To the joy of the little bird,
I thought the sound of bin music
Was the sweetest I ever beard.
We sat in the dusk that evening
Together she and I,
And talked as the fire-light flickered,
Of the days so long gone by ;
And then she sang of loving,
With tones so soft and low,
That I said, "A woman's singing ,
Is the sweetest sound I know."
But when one day I happened
To pass a play-room door,
I saw two little children
Cuddled upon the floor;
And I knew, as I heard their voices
King out in their baby glee,
That the sound of tbat merry laughter
Was the sweetest sound to me.

POORLY-PAID GIRLS.
Wm. Llpman, of the firm of Lipman
Wolfe & Co., returned to Portland re
cently from a tour of Europe. In Eng
land he staked fr,(X)0 on the Derby, and
bought a $5,000 bull pup, which he
proudly slates is a half brother to a dog
owned by Dick Croker, the unsavory
boss of Tammany Hall. Perhaps this
in a measure explains why Lipman
Wolfe & Co. have to pay their shop girls
Biich a meagre pittance as to make it
necessary for the girls, as was stated
by a well-known Portland attorney in
damage suit against that firm, to have
a husband, fattier, brother ur "friend,'
Id order to keep soul and body together
and dress as their employers require.

THE WAR IN CHINA.
Washington, Sept. 17. Chinese Min
ister has received a Uispatcti trom
Prince Ching, dated Pekin, Sept. 9,
stating that he has been clothed with
full authority, together with Li Huug
Chang, to negotiate peace, and request-
ng Minister Wu to request the State
Department to instruct Minister Conger
to open negotiations at once.
The State Department has received a
dispatch from the Consul at Fu Chau,
China, transmitting a copy of an agree
ment between the Viceroy and Tartar
General of Full Kien province, and the
foreign Consuls at Fu Chau, which pro
vides that the Chinese will do every
thing to protect foreign officers, merch
ants and missionaries resident in
Full Kien and at Amoy; that Central
and Southern China shall not be at
tacked by the foreign powers so long
as the local authorities maintain order;
and that the admirals of the several
nations will be informed that it is not
advisable that a number of naval vessels
should visit Fu Chau, lest the people be
ahirmed. Tliis agreement is signed by
the Russians, United States, Japanese,
British and French Consuls, and by
Viceroy Hsu Ying Kuey and General
Shan Liel.
London, Sept, 18. The Daily Graphfc
asserts that all the powers have ac
cepted Li Hung Chang and will prnb
ably accept Prince Ching as negotiators
It says also that the powers have agreed
to insist that a central government,
satisfactory to the powers, shall be
established in China, and that full retri
bution shall be exacted for the attacks
upon the legations.

WAR IS AWFUL.
To realUe the awful horrors of war
you must think of the hundreds an
thousands of men, their bodies torn
mangled in every conceivable way
trodden over by the infantry, ridden
over by the cavalry, wounded, neglect
ed, crying for a cup of water, thrillin
through every nerve with pain, dream
ing in their agonv of the loved ones at
home. Then go to the rear und see the
surgeons at work see the piles, per
haps, of arms or legs tossed out lik
wood chopped and piled up in a yard
Then go to the hospiti ls und listen t
the moans of the sit k ami dying; sec
the pale cheeks and the lack-lustre
eyes; what wounds, gangrene, and do-
cay and remember thin is war! N
matter bow rightemm the war may bo
it is somebody's fntheis, it is some
body's brothers, somebody's sons that
are going through all this,

SURPRISED AT STEALING.
Over in Lard valley, south from
Heppner, a new mill was started up
and a large steam whistle was placed
upon it. '
A number ot boys conceived the idea
of stealing the whistle just for a lark,
they said. The owner, hearing of their
plan, remained in his mill all night.
ixty pounds of steam was kept up.
About midnight the boys put in an ap
pearance and climbed upon the roof of
the building. Just as one applied a
wrench to the whistle, the owner opened
the throttle wide and there went up in-
the stillness of the night such a
screech as was never before heard.
People jumped from their beds in a
right and wondered what was op. The
boys tumbled off the roof of that mill as
though shot, and departed as rapidly as
their legs could carry them. The whistle
s Btill on the mill.
