Fred Iicrbold, juBt returned to Eugene friin that place, Bays the eulpbur fumos released in the smeltering of the urea have deadly effect on veg etation. In oonsequenoe the homes of ' Butte and in that vioinity are fiowerlees, ehrubless and treeless. The residences are built olose to the street line, often against it. If not against the street the usual yard sp&oe is covered with fine rock. Many residences front the ten-foot alleys that run at right angles aoroBS the blocks. The powerful effeot of the sul phur may be realized from the statement that fir and pine trees on the mountain aide seven milef across the valley lrom the stneltert have been killed by ' the fumes. Yet the human plant survives the noxious gases. . . A CALIFORNIA AMAZON. W'illlt (California) Press. Miss Julia ' Austin, the Lake county giantess and foot-racer, has just arrived from - the enow-oapped peaks of Alaska, - where she has been in training for more than twelve months. Mies Julia was - matohed against the great Alaska Indian foot-racer in a dash of 200 yards for $40,000. She ran the distanoe in twenty Beoonds, racing her vlotim from start to finish and winning the glittering gold by a small majority. This boautiful young lady stands 7 feet 3 inch in her stocking feet, weighing 100 pounds; was born in Colorado and raised in Lake county. She speakc seven diueront languages, and oan outrun any human on earth for money. The famous beauty above refer red to is of Lake county, California, noted for health resorts , and stal wart women. Holland receives her countryman Oom I'aul Kruger with unbounded enthusiasm. Holland is one of the cradles of human liberty, llei great atadtholder, William ol Orange, has a niche In the temph ot human fame on a level with our Washington. Single-handed the little Dutch state fought Spanish bnrliariiy, as represented by Uu bloody Duke ot Alva, for twenty years, Spain's assassin at last Milled the heart of William "the Silent," but to no avail. The firef of Holland's patriotism did not de pnnd on the life of her matchless leader. Spain oould not oonquer Holland. I The soramble for office is ex emplified in Douglas county where a half-score oi men are candidates for the county judgeship, left va cant by resignation. The salary is but $1000 a year. Few of the ap. plioants would hire out for the 183.33 J a month that appertain to the office, yet are anxious to put themselves in a position where the whole people can abuse them, for that amount. The Tread well mine on Bear J aland, Alaska, is a wonderful pro ducer. There Is a mountain of low grade free milling ore, averaging for the past years's work only $1.66 a ton. But the cost of milling is only 36 cunts a ton, leaving a net working profit of $1.20. The profit from the year's work was $674,000. Ore in sight is estimated at four million tons. The Marehfield match factory is running full time and giving em' ployment to 18 persons. As the laborers are beooming skilled in their work the output ia being gradually increased. A shipment of 10U0 cases to San FranoiBoo was made last week. For the past two years hard times nave prevailed in the shoe towns ol Massachusetts. ' The shortage in the shipment of boots and shoes lrom Boston bb oom pared with last year amounts to 384,872 oases.

Honor. The rolce was the peevlnh, fretful one of the farmer's wife, who bad added to her In men by taking summer boarders. ' Every room in my house Is full, and it would be too bad to send them back to I he city. "But our poor place Is not fine enough lor city people,' said Honor Eastman, looking (U'piecatinffly at the blue corn (lower pattern on the wall, then tbroujfb he open window toward the river that, binding its way between green banks, separated her farm from her neighbors. "Nonsense," said the other energetic ally. "You know you've got one of the 11 nest places in Michigan, Honor, and they'll pay well and not be much both er." Met thus with the convincing logic of experience, Honor laid aside her scruples find followed the example of her neigh- lrom, who opened their homes to tbe city folk that overrun the Michigan side of the lake all the summer long. She did it hesitatingly, regretting the Invasion of the privacy of her home and looking wistfully at her flower beds, brilliant with the many hued marigolds and petu nias and hollyhocks. "I hope they won't pick them all," she said to herself and then chlded her own selfishness. Mrs. Harrington came with her small children and larue "trunks filled with pretty gowns that gave Honor the near est feeling of envy she had ever felt. The lady's husband came out on Sun day, accompanied by a tall, handsome man whom the children called "Uncle Tom" and Mrs. Harrington Introduced is "my brother, Dr. Thomas Haddon." Uncle Tom was a favorite with his tmall nephew and namesake, and that afternoon when Honor went Into the parlor to carry away her favorite book if poems from the marble top table she ww through the window that young gen tleman perched on the porch balustrade, looking down admiringly at his uncle In he rustic chair enjoying bis after dinner c-lgar. "It's Jolly here. Uncle Tom," said tne boy. "We, have pie for breakfnst and cake rvny meal, and there's an organ instead of a pin no, and the cook comes and says, 'Honor, do you want tbe eggs b'lled or scrambled for breakfast? and never says 'Yes, ma'am or 'Miss,' like mamma'B." The gentleman laughed, and Honor es caped undetected as a listener, but her pride was hurt. She had thought her guests must see that she understood tbelr standard of living. Tbe cottage organ represented the profits of tbe berry crop, and her friends had praised her playing until Honor esteemed herself s musician. The next morning there was no pie for breakfast. Even the cake wna reserved for the evening meal, and when the chil dren teased for hymns Honor excused herself on the plea of much housework. In tbe fall, when the Harringtons had gone back to the city, Honor found she had saved quite a sum above tho ex penses of the summer. It wan lonely at the farmhouse without the children, and Honor could not think of Mrs, Harring ton's beautiful manners and tasteful dress wlthont a feeling of secret envy. An Idea came to her, but It was too daring to be realized. "At my time of life, too," she said to herself. "Why, I'm nearly 80." But the face that looked back from the mirror was'youthful and bright. "I be lieve I'll do It There's nothing to hln- ler," she said, and the brown eyes In the mirror looked back with approving assurance. There was much wonder and some comment In the rural neighborhood when It was learned that Honor Eastman had gone to Chicago to stay all winter. But Honor had left no explanation of why she went, and the letters sho received were addressed tn the care of a promi nent woman's club. In the early spring, almost as soon as the robin redbreasts came, Honor was hack at the farm, taking up the lines of her duty where Bbe had laid them down n the autumn. When Mrs. Harrington wrote asking If she would take the family again for the Bummer, Honor was glad, and tbey ame when the strawberries were ripest ind best Dr. Haddon came the following Sun- lay, and In tbe afternoon as he lay itretched In the hammock laslly watch ing tbe curling smoke of a cigar as tt lost itself In the leafy canopy above him Mrs. Harrington interrupted bis reveries. I do not understand It," she said. "Everything seems unchanged, but there s a difference. It Is more as I would do things myself. The meals are the same, hut so nicely served. Honor's dresses ire as simple, but her manners are those it the self possessed woman of the world. Aud the daintiness of everything! You qo t Iced the flowers on the table?" "Pooh!" sold her brother, looking at his ssndBome, elegant sinter admiringly. "It's jnly your good Influence, Alice." Nevertheless eoiue weeks later Dr. II addon declared that Sunday trips to the country were too brief, that he needed a rest, and was not going back to the city for a month. And 'Master Tom. If he thought that Ms undo would devote all his time to him, mending his fiahtng line and finding where the Jhiest peaches and grapes grew, wan doomed to disappointment. It even went so far that that young gentleman wns forgotten or left out in the afternoon row on the river, for Dr. Ilnddon, dis covering Honor's lore of books, declared there was no place so favorable for the rendlug of one's favorite author as In a boat, resting In the shade of vine laden branches overhanging the banks. The quiet, modest young womnn, who could mo nape a household or farm equally well and whone manners were gracious and gentle, like those of a woman of cul ture, at first aroused his curlotdty, then his Interest, aud Interest Is always akin to love. "Uncle Tom," suld that gentleman's onniesake one evening, the last before the Harringtons wero to return to town, "I Tviah we could live here every summer, don't you?" "Perhaps your sunt will let you visit h.T every summer," said his uncle, taking Honor's hand and turning to his sifter for cougrniulatlons. "Hurrah for my Aunt Hooorl" said Muster Tom. Chicago Tribune. W'lmt It Cnltted. "Did he rain anything by hia visit to the Tarts exposition?" "Yes; he says he gnined a better appre ciation of the Chicago World's fair." f'mVago Pont.
