, 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.

every device to pee that the doo

WAR TAXES
Spain, instead of the people of
the United States, should have
bourne the taxes which are such a
their; burden and inconvenience.
But their end is coming into
view and relief is nearly at hand,
for on July 1 there will pro into ef
fect the absolute repeal of stamp
sticking on commercial brokers,
bank check, certificates of deposit,
promissory notes, money orders,
export bills of lading, express re
ceipts, telegraph and telephone
messages, bonds (except indemni
fying), insurance undertakings of
all kinds, leases, manifests, mort
gages, steamship tickets below $50,
power of attorney, protest ware
house receipts, proprietary medi
cines, pertamery and cosmetics,
chewing gum and legacies of char
itable, religious, literary or edaca
tional charcter.
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. I have
been out of public life for four
years and cannot say just bow the
obstruction at The Dalles shall be
overcome, but there must be some
way to do it and 1 shall do my
best for it, and I shall continue to
use my best endeavors for the Nic
arsguan canal.''

THE HOG.
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.

SEN. MITCHELL'S DAUGHTER.
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.
