7 mmWmigmssSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSB. II. I " , ENTERPRISE AND WALLOWA COUNTY. Enterprise is the grow ing, lively county seat of Wallowa county. It is centrally situated in the county. It will draw from the vast land and stocK and general agricultural and mineral resources ; of the county, sufficiently to become eventually a big inland county seat. It is a city of generous, busy hustlers. It is rapidly building up with stone buildings. In time it will be Known as the "Stone City. Millions of the best building stone, soft and free from lime and hardening on exposure, lie within half a dozen miles of Enterprise. There is water power enough flowing right through the center of the city to run all the spin dles and wheels of a great manufacturing center. Enterprise is surrounded by as fine wheat land as lies out of doors. It draws from some of the best fruit land in America. " ' When you come west, come to Enterprise and I00K Wallowa county over on the 0. R. a n. rail road from La Grande. Henry Clay's Eloquence. It was tbe reran rk of a distinguished senator tliut Henry Clays eloquence was absolutely intuuglble to delinea tion, that the most labored description, could not embrace It and (hat lo be understood it must be seeo uud felt. He was an orator by .nature. His eagle eye burned with patriotic ardor or flashed indignation and denance upon his foes or was suffused with tears of commiseration or of pity, and it was because he felt that he made others feel. A gentleman after hearing one of his magnificent efforts in the senate thus described him: "Every muscle of the orator's face was at work. His whole body seemed agitated, as If each part was iiiritlwt with a separate life, and his small, white hand, with its blue veins apparently distended al most to bur'stiug. moved gracefully, but with all the energy of rapid and vehement gesture. The appearance of the speaker seemed lhat of a pure1 In tellect wrought up to its mightiest en ergies and brightly shining through the tbiu and transparent veil of flesh that Invested it."-St Louis Republic.

The rerxlnn spends hours In the "hammauiH" (Turkish batbsi. which are very handsome buildings decorated with tiles and embellished with nu merous exhortations as to the value of cleanliness. The smallest village in Persia has its "bamniam" and bathing is almost a religious function. When the hot room and massage are finished the Persian is shaved,, and the whole toD of his head Is likewise shaved. though the hair over the ears is left and allowed to grow down to the neck. This strange coiffure Uns a religious meaulug, for the two locks on each side of the head nre meant for the an gel of death to hold when he carries the believer to paradise. A.1I Persians dye their hair with a mixture of henna and vesmeh. and the hair dyeing Is the last part of the bath, but tea and smoking are Indulged In afterward, and the frequenters of the "hammains" find them very pleasant lounging places.

It Is absolutely certain that the ma chinery of the solar system Is ruuulug down. The earth, with its mass of three thousand trillion tons, moving through space a thousand times faster than the express train goes. Is being retarded by the friction of the atmos phere and tides to the extent that It loses about an hour lo 10.000 years, a very slow process. It would seem, but one that will inevitably bring the earth to a standstill ultimately. Ana what Is true of the earth is true of all the worlds and suns. Sir Isnac-Newton maintained that the motions of all bodies In space suffer retardation and that their velocity Is steadily becom ing less and will finally cease. Solar systems, like everything else, have their time to be born and their Ume to die. New York American. , How Scott Bore Adveriity.
