IV. n? war w as caused , tin dominant white race crowd, it o tlnir st.-nk on to ranges claimed Ly the Indians, and many innocent livef were sacrificed, among them Mrs. Manuel and her little babe at their home in White 13ird canyon. A man who Las lived for years kiiiong the Xez IVrces, before and after their war, who now lives in 1'orUitd. and understands Rreuagt, says that he knows poei lively that Joseph plunged his murderous knife into Mrs. Man uel's breast, when, in repelling his advances 6he had slapped him in the face, and one of Joseph's close tillioum Indians then dashed out on the stove the brains of Mrs. HaLuel's baby. Then the fiends burned the house and consumed the bodies of mother and child. Jack Manuel, the husband and father, had been left for dead near by, and his little girl who escaped told of the horrors at the house as well as she could with the part of the tongue the fiends had not cut off. and her storv was afterwards confirmed by Indians who had bwn present. It is reasonable to suppose, as these butchers claim, that they were full of the white man's fire water when these horrors hap pened. The Xez Terces went to war on account of he taking from them the rights in the Wallowa valley. These rights were imaginary, for Joseph's father had signed them away to the government years be fore. The Xez TVrces lelt a bloody trail along their 1900.mil- retreat, and conducted an able campaign, out-traveling the soldiers because they had a dozen horses where the soldiers had one. and in fact most of the soldiers had to walk the 1900 miles, while the Indians had fresh mouLts every day. j but it is noted that he resorted to every device to pee that the doo j trine did not apply to his own offi 'cial tenure. loes anybody expect anything letter, however, from Koger?

GLITTERING GOLD. The average mind wlil utterly fail to grasp the niguilk'auo of the statement that M tons of vir gin cold was received at the Seat tle assay office limine the enr of UXX), says the Northwest Mtgaziue. It is easy for a common mortal to arrive at accurate conclusions respecting a ton of coal, but when the term is applied to gold the mind wanders vaguely and mental computations fail one completely. Yellow gold 4ti tons of gold nuggets and dust rided from north ern creeks and rivers aud ledges within one year's time! Seven teen million dollars' worth came from the Klondike; nearly $o,000,. of 000 came from Alaska of which the Cape Nome district furnished about 4,000,000; utl sWT.OOO came from the British Columbia camps. The total assav value of all these tons is f :i03St775. The gold would really'iH'cupy but an insignificant floorage space in any warehouse, yet one's first concep tion of it assumes pyramidical pro portions. An ounce nugget held in the hand seems larger than a pound potato, and a ton of the precious metal is magnified into wealth incalculable. OPEN RIVER. Senator John J. H. Mitchell says: mere must be an open river from Lewiston to the sea.

His legs perform a function not known to anp other animal, and that is an escape pipe or pipes for the discharge of w ater, matter or sweat not used in the economy of the body, say9 the Western Swine herd. These escape pipes are sit uated about the middle of the legs, above and below the knee in the fore leg, and above the gambrel joint in tbe hind legs, bat in the latter they are very small and the functions light. Upon the inside of the fore legs they are, in a healthy bog, always active, so that moisture is always there from about and below these orifices or ducts. The holes in the legs and the breathing of the hog are his principal and only means of eject ing a heat above the normal, and when very warm the hog will open his mouth and breathe through that channel as well as his nostrils. The horse can perspire through all the pores of its body, same as a man, and cattle do the same to a limited extant, but the hog never. His escape valves are confined to the orifices upon the inside of his legs. People often wonder why it n that the hog dies so quickly when he runs rapidly or takes vi lent exercise by fighting. But if they consider the few escape pipes, their small capacity and remote ness from the cavity where the heat is generated, the wonder is not that he dies quickly when over heated, but that he lives as long as he does when heated up. LAND VALUES. In North Dakota the demand for farm lands is phenomenal and prices are very stiff. Sales are noted everyday, many quarter sec tions selling at $4500. The farmers are not the only ones looking for land. Speculators are watching every chance to pick up pieces of land that are for sale or that will likely be in the near future. It is a patent fact, also, that the speculators are willing to pay from 100 to IfZOU more per quarter section than are the far mers themselves. Tbis is the re sult of the growing scarcity of land Speculators know that it is but a question of a few years when farm lands will be very hard to ob tain, and tbat prices will have a steady npward tendency from this time forward. I his fact the spec ulators thoroughly appreciate, as do some of the farmers. Many of them, however, do not realize how valuable their land reallv is. THE POOR HORSES. Since the war began in South Africa over 200,000 head of horses and mules have been sent there, and 150,000 of them went from the ! United States. They were shipped from New Orleans, and the voy took 40 days, during which the tropic heat killed many. Those tbat got tkrough were so used up as to be fit for only 6 weeks' ser vice. People can imagine the suffer ing of those poor animals. South Africa is strewn with their car casses. Little care see ma to have been taken with their transport from the ports. They were car ried on the Natal train going up to the front in ordinary trucks, which were not supplied with food or water either at the terminous or intermediate stations. Tbe result was tbat many of those horses not lamed or kicked to death were practically useless from starvation when they reached the front They gnawed the woodwork of the trucks in their desperate hunger. now wa-ling, ana nj-'h w rk d! rusk'- tbe dry end ,!

The fact is recalled by the election ol Mr. Mitchell as senator from Oregon that bis daughter married nine yean ago into one of tbe oldest of France's titled families, says tbe Spokesman Review. Hhe is the wife of tbe due de Rochefocauld, who has one of the finest lineages in France, three titles, a com mission in tbe army and a host of friends. He seems to be an exception to the or dinary run of dukes, for be refused to marry his cousin and a great fortune, and took tbe Oregon girl without a dot. The couple met in Paris 15 years ago. It was a case of love at first sight, al though the duke is 14 years bis wife's senior and had the reputation of a woman hater. REMARKABLE CURES OF RHEU MATISM. From tbe Vindioalor, Batberfordton, N.
