THE OLD HOMESTEAD. Its worn-out acres fallow He, Unpruned the orchard standi, For they who tended them long since Have gone to other lands One to the prairies of the west, And one across the sea; The rest have reached that blest country Where parting may not be. The elm boughs tap the skylight dim As, in the days agone, They tapped to waken merrily The little folks at dawn. The woodbine curtains tenderly The shattered window pane. Yet grants admittance to its friends, The sunshine and the rain, No step, no whisper breaks the hush But hist! A sweep of wings Athwart the attic's dreaming dusk, And tender twitterings! A tenant for the empty nest? Bee from the window ledge A phoebe bird calls to its mate Upon the cradle's edge. And in the cradle, vacant long, Four downy fledgelings peep And cuddle cloBe. They'll dream of wings And twetter In their sleep All through the quiet summer night; While on the dingy wall Flit silently the thin, weird shapes That come at moonlight's call. 0 life and love that were of yore! 0 sad old house bereltl To thee but memory's treasured store And the little birds are left. One of thine own is in the west, And one across the foam; The rost aro In that fairest land Of Home! Sweet Home. Flnley C. Perrlne. FROM SO. AFRICA. Mac Clarke, of Minor A Co., has re ceived a Ion a letter from bin brother, a few extracts from which follow: Winburg, Oct. 27. Dear Malcolm: We are at present hemmed in and be sieged by the enemy on all sides. Sev en days ago the Boers took up positions about here and on 4 occasions their guns belched forth death messages. This af ternoon 2500 burghers reinforced the Boers, and a determined attack will be made on the morrow. The Boers are cowards in every sense of the word. On the three first morn ings of their attacks they intrenched 4000 yards from our cainp. Our artil lery performed excellent work. Their firHt shell found the range, and the 2d, 3d and 4lh full right Among the Boers, completely routing them. Our mount ed troops then scouted the vicinity and found small armed parties hidden. Why the Boers are considered brave surpass es my comprehension. Further extracts from this letter will appear next week. BARGAIN. For sale at $ 1100, 100 acres on the edge of Heppner.

The American Wool & Cotton Keporter will say tomorrow; "The colder weather of (he past week or 10 days has started a somewhat better business in the clothing trade, which is reflected in a slightly increased inquiry for wool, but the amount of business actually transacted iu the latter commodity showB no improvement; in fact, it is slightly leos than that of last week. The general feeling is that the volume of business in the wool market will be of moder ate proportions from now until after the turn of the new year. Manufacturers are buying wool only to meet pressing wants. The wool trade, therefore, naturally anticipates a decidedly improved demand for wool after the turn of the year. The market may be quoted as quite steady. Actual selling prices remain unchanged. "The saleB of the week in Boston amounted to 3,570,000 pounds do mestic and 230,000 pounds foreign, making a total of 3.800,000 pounds, against a total of 4.212,000 for the previous week, and a total of 3,368,000 for the corresponding week last year. The sales since January 1 amount to 144,471,400 pounds, against 344,815,776 pounds for the corresponding time last year." FOOTBALL. S. A.

The Heppner Hills are famous for producing good beef and mutton, and in this line can rank right up with any part of the world. Bock & Mathews, the enterprising proprietors of the Liberty Meat Market again proved this by making a gfand holiday diHplay of meat of all kinds, which was a credit to themselves and to Morrow county. Shcepraisei s get here from 80 to 100 per cent, increase every year. If you take this paper and The Weekly Oresronlun you won't have to beg your news. Glorious News Comes from Dr. D. B.

Terrible sores would break out on ber bead and faoe, and tbe best duotors oould give no help; but her cure is oomplete aud her health is exoellent."

Included in this amount were 800,000 pounds of nice, eastern wool, whicli was disposed of at h clean cost of about 50c. The outlook for general business is considered as good, and the belief pre vails that the wool market will Bliare in the commercial prosperity which, it is believed, is to characterize the year H31, REP FRONT STABLE.

There is ho reason why Morrow noun ty cannot support twice its present pop ulation, and for those wbo are willing to work, homes are here. The man with cash to invest would probably reap as rich returns from it here as elsewhere, for land values here are the lowest on earth considering the production and profits. NOW FOR TREES.
