Rosewater, of the Omaha Bee,) unearthed a rotten ring at Omaha; uiatwas roDinnguic government j hv a scries ofland swindles. After waving 6ecuroa2unicieiiLPV!aencejt!ie. to convince the administration of j the theft and convict the thieves, Rosewater visited Hayes at Wash ington and laid the matter before him. The president promised that the. ring should be immediately cleaned out. Rosewater told .Senator .Jones the whole story, congratulating himself at the same that his efforts would result in the speedy apprehension of the swin dlers. Nothing more was thought about the trouble by the senator until, two years later, he metRose wateriu Washington again. "Well, how is everything in Nebraska, Rosewater?'' said the senater: "I suppose your millennium has come?1' "Business and all that sort of thing is all right, but ahem! well ' "Here, have a ci gar," said the senator, "and tell me all about it.' Rosewater lighted the cigar slowly and then myste riously invited the senator into a quiet coiner. "Do vou remember that land-swindlins: scheme at Omaha that T went in po TTnvos about, two years ago?' he com-! menced. "Yes," replied the sena- tor, knowing exactly what was coming. "And, you know, he prom- ised to clean those fellows out?" "Yes." "Well, he lias never done it." "Tell me about the interview you had .with him at the time." "The interview was all right just as straight as could be. When T commenced to enter into the de tails of the steals, he went to a pigeon-hole in his desk, took out a 'scratch tab, and then telling me to proceed, wrote down questions, answers, names and everything. 1 was confident that he meant business. Now, I am going to him again and ascertain why he has not kept his promise." Suiting his ac tions to his words, Rosewater braced up to start for the white house. "Now, see here," said the senator quietly, "that's a pretty good cigar I gave you, isn't it? It cost me two shillings; a box of them is worth 23. I will bet 3011 a box and leave the bet to your de cision, that, if 3'ou don't say any thing about your former interview, Hayes will take the scratch -book from the same pigeon-hole, write the same notes over again, and never remember that you ever be fore made complaint to him. This is taking the chance on the pigeon-hole, but I will make the bet." Rosewater agreed. Two hours later he entered the senator's room with a box of cigars under his arm. "Well?" said thej sena tor. "You won.'1 Denver Trib une. Tne Swigs Good-Night. Among the loft) mountains and elevated valleys of Switzerland the Alpine horn has another use beside that of sounding" the far famed "Ranz des Vaclies," or cow song, .and this is of a very solemn and impressive nature. When the sun has set in the valley and the sunny summits of the moun tains gleam with golden light, the herdsman who dwells upon the highest habitable spot takes his horn and pronounces clearly and loudly through it, as through a speaking-trumpet, "Praise the Lord God." As soon as the sound is heard by the neighboring herds men they issue from their huts, take their Alpine horns and re peat the same words. This frequently lasts a quarter of an hour, and the call resounds from all the mountains and rocky cliffs around Silence at last setttles ovor the scene. All the herdsmen' kneel and prav with uncovered j heads. Meantime it has become quite dark. "Orood-nifflit!"

Railroad Notes Work is progressing rapidly along the line of railroad from Umatilla to Baker City. The track is already laid to Pendleton, a distance of 43 miles from Uma-I tilla, and the grading completed about 45 miles further, or nearly to the summit of the Blue moun tains. The laying of track will be. resumed on or before November 1st, and will be reads' to tun trains to the summit, OS miles, by the 1 st of January. The tunnel, eight miles west of the summit, will not be completed before the middle of December. The grading and bridge work over the Blue moun tains is very hcavj- in some places. The grading alone costs 40,000 per mile. A large force of men will eom- mence on the. heavy rock work on the east side of the Blue moun- tains "' tw0 or ll,rce weeks and work will be pushed all winter, A IarSe force is now at work in Burnt river canyon and the force ltnero wi ,)e increased so as to insure the completion of the heavy work near Snake river east of Baker City early in the summer of next year. Grading will e com menced as soon as the line is located through Grand Ronde and! Powder river valleys which it is expected will be done in three weeks. The line of the road will not run through Ladd's canyon from Grand Ronde to Powder, -us has been reported, but will run through Pylc's canyon on the line of the first survey. The Oregon Construction com pany are the contractors for this work, and the contract is perhaps the largest one ever entered into by private individuals in this state. A large part of the force now at work on the Southern Pacific beyond El Paso will soon be brought back and put on the ex-lis tension ol the Urcaon division from Redding north to the Oregon line. This extension is through a rough and difficult country, where much heavy work will be required, and its completion will require some time. Gallatin News: Cross river, at the mouth of the Boulder, seems destined to be the winter terminus of the Northern Pacific railroad.' Immediately beyond the Boulder is twelve miles of very roiigh boulders, which the company seems unable to contract with airy one, upon which no work has 3et been done. Hints on Roasting "Wild Ducks. If the "wild flavor" of game, such as geese, ducks, etc, is dis liked, they may be soaked over night in salt water, or pare a fresh lemon without breaking the thin inside skin, put inside the game for a day or two, renewing the lemon every twelve hours. This will absoib unpleasant flavors from almost all kinds of meat and game. Some say lay slices of lem on over game while cooking and remove before scrvina:. Young ducks should roast from twenty five to thirty minutes; full-grown for an hour or more with frequent basting. Some prefer them un derdone, served very hot, but thorough cooking will prove more generally palatable. Sacramento Dee. The Best They Can Do. In the absence of other law ilii- people o! linrns mining awincr, Aiasua vmcii no iu inm- hwi.i of Silica), emulating the example of isolated Oregon in her chaotic days, have 'just met in mass con- nnr adopted a code of laws tor the regulation of affairs in tare as follews: Persons furnishing liquor to the , Indians shall forfeit their entire stock, which shall be sold at auc tion and the proceeds applied to a general fund for the employment of a constable, etc. For the sec ond offense the guilty parties shall be allowed forty-eight hours to leave the district, not lo return for one year! .Selling or giving molasses to In dians is made a. punishable misde meanor. Indians shall not be peunitted to camp on the beach between the two wharves. All intoxicated Indians and aus picious characters shall be arrested and imprisoned. Trials shall be conducted by an executive committee or three, elected for a term of six months, who shall serve without pay. Pio visions are made for the collection and disbursement of moneys. A jury shall consist of six persons and a two-thirds vote shall be necessary to convict. The execu tive committee shall have sole jur isdiction over the mi(leincanors committed by Indians, who, if found guilty, shall be punished by imprisonment or hard labor on the f public works, or both. The Difference in Time. Let us suppose that it is noon on Monday, and that we are in the Pacific ocean. At a point fifteen degrees further west, it is eleven o'clock; at Sydney, fifteen degrees further, it is ten o'clock; at a point in central Australia it is nine: at Nanking it is eight; at a point in Central Siam, it is seven; at Cal cutta it is six, and the. sun there is just rising. For every fifteen degrees there is about one hour's difference in time. When jt is six o'clock at Calcutta it js five, fifteen degrees further w-st, at Lahore; at Bagdad it is four, at the line, of the Ural mountains it three; at St. Petersburg, two; at Naples, one; and at Greenwich, England, it is midnight, Sunday! night, in the middle of the At lantic, it is ten o'clock Sunday night; and at Philadelphia, eight o'clock; and at St. Louis, six o'clock, or about .sunset. And so, keeping on around the globe to the same point in the Pacific ocean, where we supposed it was noon on Monday, we find that it is noon on Sunday. Now, on the j east side of the meridian, in the Pacific, the day is Sunday, but west of that point it is Monday. In making calculations of time, the circuit of the globe is obtained in that day.

A good story is told of a young man who consulted an old gentle man who- had been very successful in business, as to the best busi ness in which to engage. In an swer to the question "What had I better do?" the old man replied, "Stick." The young fellow ex plained that he. wished to know what he had best do to make money. Again lie was told "Stick." "Stick to what?" was asked. ;0h, that is a matter of little conse quence. Take almost any line of business you like; but stick to it." SYMPTOMS OF WORMS. !
