Did Governor West call out the mil itia when the mayor o f Woodburn asked for aid in caring for the 100 1, W. W .’s? Not much. He very prop erly advised the mayor to call on the county sheriff. Just hieing happv Is a fine thing to do; Looking on the bright side. Rather than the blue. Sad or happy musing Is largely in the choosing. And just being happy Is brave work, and true. A. M L. rhe I Irefeouian of Jan. 19 contained a fairly good write-up of Falls City, by Addison Bennett. Mr Bennett seems to have been inclined to give the editor of The News more credit than said editor claims for himself; also the pictures were labeled 'Wil- laniina.' In all other respects y a con sider the article well worthy o f a place in any collection of “ Boosts for Palis City.” High Mountain* of Wyoming. The highest mountain in Wyo ming is -Gannett peak, whose ele vation, according to a chart publish ed by the United States geological survey, is 13,785 feet above sea level. The Grand Teton is a close second at 13,747 feet, and Fremont peak is only seventeen feet lower. There are six additional mountains higher than 13,000 feet, their ele vations ranging from 13,007 feet for Knife Point mountain to 13,600 feet for Mount Helen. But these are not. all the-.lofty mountains in the state,.for there are in addition twenty-one named peaks and about forty unnamed peaks whose alti tudes are above 12,000 feet. Wyo ming has, therefore, some seventy mountain peaks that rise more than 12,000 feet.above sea level. Reduced Size. A fter a concert at Manchester, England, Joachim, the great violin ist, was at a station, waiting for a train. A respectable looking man, ap parently a navvy in his best clothes, &ced at his side awhile, watching im with close interest. Finally he asked for a light and got it. As he drew at hia pipe to get it started he looked Joachim full in the face. Then, just as he was about to go on, he tapped the violinisPs chest impressively. “ But Paganini was the man,” said he. . ■:> • Joachim used to sav that he nev er felt so small in his life. Whole ages o f learned musical criticism ad never begun to whittle him down so fine. E E N a m in g Bloam fontain. Bloemfontein was named after a robber called Jan Bloem, the son of a German father and half caste nother, who wandered about the wilda of Africa in the eighteenth century with a following of Hotten tots and settled on the spot where Bloemfontein now stands. He lived by plunder and became one o f the richest and most powerful captains of the Hottentots. He named the place Bloemfontein, aud the name has remained to this day..—Johan- neaburg Chronicle.
