Farmers alon Vansyle, Jnniptr
and North Cold Spring are contemplat
ing shipping their wheat from Wallula
over tiie Northern Pacific. At the rate
of twenty cents per bushel fioia Wa'lu
la to Chicago they estimate that it will
be more profitable to ship to Chicago
than to Portland. If the rate is only live
and one-t'aird cents from Milwaukee to
New York thera seeas to be no good
reason why v.-brat might not be carried
fio'n Wallula to Chiciit'O tor even con
siderably les than twenty cents per
bushel. The Leader would like to see
the farmers realize handsomely upon
their year's toil.
The people ia the Celd Spring coun
try are not very well supplied with pos
tal facilities. There is a postoffice at
Helix which is supplied three times a
week from Pendleton. There is anoth
er postutiice at Hilton, commonly
ktiswu as Badger Spring, F. M. Hamp
ton, postmaster, eighteen miles from
llelix, but tbre is no regular service.
A movement is on foot for the better
ment of this condition. Petitions have
been forwardsd to the proper dtpart
ment fur the establishment of a postcf
rice at King's, six miles from Helix, to
be known as Cold Spring, with J. W.
King as postmaster, for the establish
ing of a route from Echo to Helix, with
the abandon
ment cf the route from Pendleton to
Helix. The proposed route would sup
ply Hilton, Cold Spring and Helix, aud
the expense need not be greater than it
is now. The rapidity with which the
"Must overythiEg go, mamma! The
old bouss, the piano, the stock, and my
own little pony? Oh, mamma, must all
be sold? Is there no hope?"
And Dollie Danvers gazed into her
mother's face with a pair ot eager brown
eyes.
Mrs. Danvers shook her head sadly.
A pale-faced, anxious-looking woman,
die seemed bowed with the weight of
this trouble with which she was forced
to contoad.
"No hopo, Dollie," she answered
mournfully; ''not the slightest ray; so
do not think of such a thing. Your fa
ther is dead, and yon and I are all
alone; we must meet this terrible trou
ble as bravely as possible. ' He did not
intend leaving us such a sorrow to bear.
In an evil moment he became involved
ia debt; he mortgaged the farm then, and
with the money thus obtained paid the
amount of his indebtedness. But alas!
he has been taken from us suddenly
stricken down without a moment's
warning and he has not been dead
three mouths, when the holder of the
unfortunate mortgage writes me that he
will be here upon a certain day to take
possession. That day has arriyed. Dol
lie, darling, I know Roger Whitcoinbe
by reputation; he is a hard old man, de
voted to money, and perhaps net alto
gether scrupulous as to the manner of
obtaining it. He has no sympathy or
charity, aud his heart is as hard as a
stone; no hope of leniency there; and
besides, even if he should grant us a re
spite, it would only be for a little while,
and then we would be as badly off as
before. No, daughter, we must resign
ourselves to the inevitable; there is no
possibility ef obtaining the money with
which to. satisfy the mortgage, aud I
have dc:ided to sell allour possessions,
except sufficient household furniture
with which to fit cs up a couple ef
rooms somewhere, and we must go to
work to try and earn a bare subsistence.
I have my sewing machine, aud you,
dear, may possibly get a school, and
well, Dollie, God will not forsake the
widow and the fatherless, I am sure."
But Dollie was young and impetuous,
and it was a difficult task to learn res
ignation. "It's a shame, mamma!" she stormed
angrily, "a burning shame, and 1 cau't
help saying so. The idea of a rich old
man like Mr. Whitcombs robbing a
friendless widow iu th's fashion! Mam
ma, I don't believe that God will ever
forgive him, and -"
"Hush, Dollie!"
Mrs. Danvers spoke in a frightened
whisper, and-her face was quite pale,
while her sad eyes were turned toward
the window with actual alarm.
A man was coming slowly up the via
Ict-berdered walk to the door an old
man with gray hair and hard features,
aud upon every lineament of his harsh
face was stamped the word avarice.
Dollie started a little guiltily, for it
was plaia to see that Mr. Wkitcornbe
had overheard her impetuous speech.
"I don't care," she muttered, sotto
voce; "lie deserves worse than that."
Iu the meantime the widow had open
ed the doer and timidly welcomed the
old man, who was already gazing about
him with au air of proprietorship.
"Bad business! bad business!" he
growled, after the state of alfairs bad
been thoroughly explained to him.
"Mighty bad for a man to run his farm
into debt too deep and hopeless to be
ever extricated, and then die and leave
his family unprovided for! A poor man
ager, I say! A maa who will be guilty
of such improvidence is better dead and
out of the way! A man who will rob
his own family "
"Mr. Whitcoinbe!"
Dollie started forward, white to the
lips, save for the indignant flush which
burned in a tiny red spot upou either
cheek. "Stop?" she panted angrily,
"How dare vou speak iu such a heart-
le?s way of mi father my good, kind
loving father. How dare you say such
things of him when he is dead aud can
not defend himself? You are a coward
and a wicked old man! It is you who
arc robbiBt; tho widow and her father
A look of pity stole into thestranger's
eyes.
"What is the matter, little girl?" que
ried the young man kindly.
Dollio raised a tear-stained little face
and sprung hastily to her feet. The
stranger doffed his bat with a courteous
salute.
"I beg your pardon!" he cried. "I
never ureaned that that I thought
you a little girl who had been punish
ed and came out here to have a good
cry."
' In spits of her troubles Dollie could
not repress a smile. Tho young man
ventured another remark, and before
many minutes had passed tho two were
chatting together in a friendly way. At
last the fntlemaa glanced at his watch.
' Wny, 4few timo fliesl" he exclaimed?.
"I eame through this orchard a short
cut I was told ou my way to the Dan
vers place. Will you kindly direct
me?"
Dollie glanced into his face with sus
picious eyes.
"It is not the Danvers place any long
er," she said bitterly. "It has passed
Into the bauds of a mean-spirited old
old man who, as soon as he arrived at
the farm this morning, proceeded to
turn my mother and myself into tho
street. I am Dollie Danvers," she add
ed, ingenuously. The young man was
staring into her face with genuine as
tonishment and disapproval.
"Miss Danvers!" he cried eagerly, "I
do net understand you. What is the
name of this cruel old man?"
"Roger Whitcoinbe," she answered.
"There is some mistake, or something
wrong I am sure of it!" said the young
man, sternly. "I am the holder of the
mortgage upon the Danvers farm. My
name is Robert Carroll. Mr. Roger
Whitcoftibe is only my agent. He has
never been instructed to use harsh
measures in any case, and more especi
ally with you. Miss Danvers, your fa
ther is the best friend I ever had, and I
came here to-day to see your mother and
eleasa her from all indebtedness to mc.
Come with me to the house, and I will
soon settle with Whitcombs. He has
abused his authority."
And he did as he proposed. Confront
ing the agent with ins own abuse ot
power, Mr. Carroll spcedilv dismissed
him from his service, and the crestfallen
old maa departed.
Robert Carroll remained several days
at the farm-house, and it was the most
delightful visit he had ever experienced.
And when he went away he wrote fre
quently to Mrs. Danvers, and thers
were - always a few lines inclosed for
Dolly.. There must, have been a power
ful magnet a.t the Danvers plice, for iu
a few weeks he was back again. And
before six months had elapsed there was
grand wedding, and Dollie became
Mrs, Robsrt Carroll. The three live
happily together now in a luxurious
mansion, but Dollie never can forget
the awful agony and desolation which
overflowed her heart when she was
driven forth by a stranger from the eld
home of her childhood.

At a meeting held on Wednesday the
tax-payers decided to build aa $13,000

It shows a spirit of enterprise and pro-':

There is not a spring passes by, but
what there is a crop failure predicted
by many iu Eastern Oregon. There is
always something unusual in the weath
er; something nevar experienced by the
oldest inhabitant.f This spring the pre
diction of a failure was entertained
more generally than ever before, and
this year there will be a larger crop
than ever before, j Wheat is doing splen
didly now; can get along withoat any
more rain, and cannot but be nearly
double the amount raised in any prev
ious yeai. The farmers will have moiey
t pay what they owe the merchai ts
and machine men, who will then k
enabled to settle tip their indebtedness
Besides being able to pay their debts,
tho farmers will have a nice little "sur
plus in the treasury," and caa commence
their next year's work with a lighter
heart, as they will not be weighed down
with a chain composed ef links ef debts
lhis is a comparatively new country,
and the majsntyj ot the farmers com
menced with next to nothing, that be
ing the caase of there being so many in
debt. In no other coantrv in the world
can a man make 1 raise easier than he
can in this, and when we say that Uma
tilla county can t be beaten, we state
"the truth, the whole truth, and noth
ing but the truth."
less child! If I were only a man I would
chastise you a-i you deserve!"
Mrs. Danvers had sunk hopelessly is
to a chair, uale and terniieJ, too over
come with alarm to venture a rernon
strance, and Dollie stormed on:
"You are acting a wicked as well as
a cowardly part, Mr. : Roger YThit
combe," she panted, "and 1 refuse to
leave this place my old home, until "
"You will leave this very day," yell
ed the old man in a burst of angry pas
sion. '"1 had intended granting you a
respite, but your own impertinence has
scaled your doom! Out you both go,
before faur-aad-twenty hours roll
around." j
Dollie grew very pale. Where would
they go? Two helpless women with on
ly the pitiful snm of money which was
iu their possesoion? But the fiat had
gone forth and against it there was no

If we take any moderately largo

can see, even with the naked eye.
that a series of small spot-like
marks runs along each side of the
body. These apparent spots, which
are generally eighteen or twenty in
number, are, in fact, the apertures
through which air is admitted into
the system, and are generally form
ed in such a manner that no ex
traneous matter can by. aey possi
bility find entrance. Sometimes
they are furnished with a pair ef
horny hps, which can b opened and
closed at tiie win ot tne insect: in
other' cases they are densely fringed
with stilt interlacing bristles, form
ing a filter, which allows air, and
air alone, to pass. But tho appara
tus, of whatever character it may
be, ia always so wonderfully perfect
in its action, that it has been found
impossible to inject the body of a
dead insect with even so subtle a
medium as spirits of wine, although
the sut.ject was first immersed iu
fluid, and then placed beneath the
receiver of an air-j ump. The aper
tures in question, which are techni
cally known as "spiracles," commu
nicate with twe large breathins-
tubes, or tracheae, wliich extend
through the entire length of the
body. From these main tubes are
given off innumerable branches,
which run in all directions, and
continually divide and subdivide,
until a wonderfully intricate net
work ia formed, pervading every
part of the structure, and penetra
ting even to the antennae acd claws.

The Christian Register remarks:
"Ministers Ehonld keep their illus
trations up to the times. One of
the profession, writing in the
Standard, says, 'The photographic
plate must come to the camera
ireta and dripping, from its siivery
bath, or no vivid impression will be
made upon it; and so should our
hearers come to their pews fresh
from the baptism of heavenly in
fluences through closet and family
devotion, if they would tela us in
producing a strong and helpful im
pression on them by the truth.' A
go id application. Nevertheless, the
most sensitive plates, which will
take a picture as quick as an eye
wink, are dry."
A London dispatch says: The
most encouraging feature ef the
agricultural outlwok is the favora
ble change in the weather which
has come at the mcst opportune
time, when warmth and sunshine
will produce the best results, espec
ially as it has been preceded by
copious rains. The backward con
dition ef crops and discoloration
of wheat Lave been sources to com
plaint, but it is new admitted that
po lasting injury was done, and if
the present line weather continues
a rapid improvement in harvest
prospects is expected.
