Buck that im now wklte with the hoary frosts o many winters recollect to hanging In tree tightly strapped to their our. Ing boards while their mothers roamed the forest in search ol game for the lords of creation or wood fir the tepee, aud from Infancy love to relate how the Great Spirit spoke to them with the awful voice of terrlflc thunder in the bowels of the earth. Many are the stories and legends of Indian lore told of Crater mountain. One of the favorite ones is told of a great war Ix-tween the Shoshone ami Uinatillas. When the Uinatilhis had conquered their fo they pro ceeded to slaughter old and young, regardless of . sex. One beautiful Shoshone maiden, seeing that death was Inevitable from her pursuing foes, plunged headlong into the burning crater, and Instantly the volcanic eruption ceased, much to the consternation of her pursuers, who, mi the following day found on looking" down the chasm of inky larkneBS a resplendent light with the. form of the Shoshone maiden In the midst of tho apparition. They told it to their dusky warriors, and to this day Crater mountain Is looked iip-m with a reverence from an In dian point of view that almost passes the bounds ol credulity. Many other stories are extant of this volcanic wonder. However, sufficient Is in light to make tho explorer pause and reflect on the mighty Hwer of nature aud the punlty of mankind when weighed In the scales of power. The following, says the Raker City Dem ocrat, is from the dairy of Hon. J. A. Wright, who is a careful scientist, ever on the alert for something new and alwavs ready to look into the deep mysteries of nature : Crater mountain Is located some eleven miles from the camp of Cor nucoplu, on t ho south side of the range whoso peaks are tlpSHl with eternal snow. Many cnasms ana nssnres have In the misty past cleft the mountains and left them in the most fantastic hhaes. Vegetation ceases to grow after a certain height Is reached and closo under thelstsnof one of the great peaks Is the famous extlncO'olennf). Ashes - and 'niva are found lu great profusion, .and In such indescribable masses that It makes the ascent otio or peril and , great riifllculty. How ever, once at me top, a iep uowh Into the blank, fathomless abyss su- plies tho most morbid minds with all tho sensationalism necessary for a lifetime. A favorite amusement was to throw ris-ks down and listen to the sounds as they struck on the pro jecting sides of the dark chimney until the sounds died away leaving nothing but for the explorer to guess it had reached the bottom. Many have been the stories calculated of the wonderful cavern that extended from the sides of the great chimney A stout cable was provided and I basket swung from a pulley. The Hon. Joseph with camera and note book was carefully lowered some 378 feet when he noticed an apperature in the sldo of the chimney, and by signals agreed upon a halt waa called in his downward career, and lie crawled through a cleft in the great Chimney, and the work of exploration beiriin. The first sight that met his astonished gaze was a most stupendu ous 'chamber from whose mighty dome hung stalactites of great beauty, which was enhanced by the light of the candle, and fairly struck terror to his heart, as the flickering candle seemed to possess tho power of some unseen hand that made millions of the brilliant stalactites dance in re splendent beauty. A great snowy owl blinked his two balls of fire at the aitonlshed Joseph, and with such apersl-tcncy he thought surely this Is the "witches' cauldron" and ex pecteri to find perched on some point of rock one of the Imps from the un fathomable hereafter. However, nothing of the kind came in view and the explorer grosxI his way to the far end of tho chamber, where he thought he heard sounds of falling water, nor was l.e mistaken, for, squeezing himself through an open in he found himself in another chamber of great leauty with stream of hot sulphur water running intn ih earth or rocks. The Incrus tation from the sulphur wster had transformed the cavern Into a coral like sulwtance and left it In such fan if ahaiM. He found in the water some lively little lizards and some frogs that change color on the slightest provocation, two large rats, who eyed the explorer with a eurios- itr that seemed to bode no gootl ana he longed for'hls little gun." IIIUII COHT l REAM ERIE. Hipanm Imw slow people are to accent that which Is for their gootl, and how easily persuaded Into aotne upon "e,8W,D).n ,henu)hy a gbb-tongnl agent. A neighborhood not a thous and miles from this office was recent ly visited by a representative of a creamery supply house of Chicago. The result Is that the farmers of the said neighborhood are having a big creamery plant put up where It is oof Dttded and rr mill be. I soother town, wttrw a iu-oprailv creamery wouM t a, "0xJ send," and where the business people of ths town am aoxlous to have a creamery organized and are willing to help get it started, the farmer shake their heads fearing that th business men of th village will take advantage of them. The whole matter haa bea presented to them In the tru light, showing them what other neighbor hoods under similar condition are doing, yet they have doubts on the subject and fear to glv the local bank a note for $2,000, with every guarantee that all shall be satisfac tory. But the gllb-tongued agent quickly secured through the assist ance of "influential farmers" lu the neighborhood note for $1,700. He will furnish them a plant worth not over S2,40O, ;and walks on with a couple of thousand dollars io his pocket while the "Influential" farm ers have in their pockets a few hun dred dollars of worthless stock. Stock Farm and Home. U.MOLN'S MEMORY. Abraham Lincoln had a great memory. A writer In the Chicago Herald gives an Incident lu point. When he was comparatively a young man and a candidate for the Illinois legislature, he took dinner with a Sangamon county farmer, and after the meal they two stood at the barn yard gate, talking and whittling. Lincoln's knife needed sharpening, and the Yankee In him prompted him to sharpen it. He walked to a tool box, took from it a whetstone and came back to the great gatet where he stood again and began sharpening his knife. One post of the gate was. very high. A man came along the road in a wagon, going in the direction Lincoln wanted to travel, and he bade his host good-bye and clambered Into the .vehicle intent, no doubt, oo gdttlng another voto. Years afterward, when he was preaident, a soldier came to call upou him at the White House, aud at the first sight the gaunt chief executive said: "Yes, I remen l.r you. ou used to II vo on the Danville, road. I took dinner with you olio time when I was running for the legisla ture. Recollect wo stood together out at the baru-yard gale and I sharpened my knife?" "Ya-as," drawled tho farmer-sol- oMcr, "and wherever did you put tu it whetstone? We 'lowed mebby you bad took it along with you." "No," said Lincoln, "no, 1 put it ou top or tne gate post ine nigu one." "Well!" exclaimed tho visitor, "mebby you did. Nobody else could have out It there, and none of us ever thought to look there for It." He went on home, and when he got there one of the first things he did was to climb up on the gate and look for the whetstone. It was there, right where it had lain for 13 years. The honest fellow, adoring his chief, wrote a letter before his furlough expired, telling the presi dent the whetstone was found and never would be lost again. Very reassuring are the statistics Just issued by the war department at Berlin, giving an account or we number of shell thrown Into the French fortresses and cities which had the misfortune to undergo bombardment In the war of 1879. Paris, which succumbed to famine, not to bombardment, received 1 10,. 000; Uelfort, 112,000, while Strans- burg absorbed no less than 200,000 before it was finally driven by star vation to surrender. From this it would sppear that we have little to fear from the bombardment of the cities and towns along our coast, no matter whether they are fortified or not. It looks as If a cruiser might fire away every projectile In her magazine without doing any serious Injury. Moreover, 100 rounds per gun Is a large allowance, and the heavy cannon with wh'ch most cruisers are equipped nowadays could not probably fire half that number before being placed hors de combat. fee tk World's Fair far Flfteea test.

The description of Secretary Car lisle's visit to the officers of th Sugar trust on Wall street, as given by the New York Times, forms very interesting reading In view of events that transpired subsequently, i MLARCH1.NU THE VtlLTS. . Oov. Pennoyer, on two occasions, mdi use of peculiarities on which to ride Into uHL. He tried the d-xire agalo, but failed. v Naw ha has an other fad. It Is to search the bank vaults to And how much money they contain that has Iain there for seven years. He supposes that a depos itor Is dead who has left his money untouched for that length of time. The governor has Instructed District Attorney Hume, of th 4th district, to demand answers from the bank officials to a set of Interrogatories served upon them, with a view to discover escheat funds belonging to the state. He is confident that the state will secure quite a large sum through, this action. Spcsking of the matter the governor says : "The instructions given by me to the prosecuting attorney to tile a bill of discovery requiring bank officers to answer certain Interrogatories, I was compelled by law to give, and no trifling will be allowed in regard to the matter. If the courts Issue definite orders anil bank officers dis regard them, they must he punished for contempt of court, aud if there U no law sufficient to compel the an swer, I will ask the next legislature to pass one. If, however, the courts trifle with the law by not stipulating a definite and limited time In which banks must answer, I will ask the next legislature to remove the recal citrant Judges from office. The law must be enforced. Banks may run the federal government, but I do not propose that they will run the state of Oregon so long as I am governor." It Is understood that District At torney Hume has, In accordance with the . governor's Instructions served notice on twenty-seven banks in his district, and other district attorneys throughout the state have been in structed to take similar action in their districts. The law wider which the governor Is working is section 3413 of Hill's code, which provides that when the governor is informed, or has reason to believe, that any bank in this state has or holds on deposit any funds or o'her iroicrty which have escheated to this state, he shall direct the district attorney lu the district where such bank Is located, to file lu the circuit court an iiuonuatlon or hill of discovery, with proH-r Inter rogatories, to bo answered by the owner, agent or munagcr'of said hank. Upon the filing of such Information or hill, the court shall order and di rect that at a time to be designated In said bill, said ersou shall, under oath, file an answer to said Informa tion and Interrogatories. If It ap pears to the court, from such answers, that said bank has any procrly in Its ijossesslon which has or may es cheat to this state, It shall direct the said bank forthwith to bring the same Into such court, and the court shall proceed to dispose of said prop erty as provided by law. "Section 8135, of Hill's code, pro vides that when any person shall die without heirs, leaving any real or personal property In this slale, the same escheats to and becomes the property of this state." J. IL Alberts, cashier of a Salem bank, appears not to be disturbed by this new bunt of the governor. He says the banks, on their own motion, ... i. a I use ail . poasiuie enueavors to mm lawful owners of deposit which sre not disturbed for long periods, and he seems to doubt the existence of these alleged seven year funds. Puck recently-published a cartoou, representing the American (aimer with his wheelbarrow load of pro duce seeking the markets of the world, while in one corner the same farmer is buying a home-manufactured coat, from McKlnley, repre sented to be marked up 3.1 per cent. The obvious Intent of the cartoon is to convey the impression that the farmer haa no home market for his produce, and that the McKlnley tariff law caused him to pay more ror his woolen goods. The facts are that American manufactured woolen goods were marked down Instead of up after the passage of the McKlnley law, and be could buy his coat cheaiMtf Instead of having to sty more. On the subject of a home market the American Economist, referring to this cartoon of Pucks' ay: "For the Information of this political babe and foreign suckling, we repeat, as published In the Amer ican Economist of August 3d, that the total American consumption of all goods Is $ll,60o,0i0,000 a year, while the Imports of all other coun tries of the world Is only 7,;5!,000,. ooo, ;so that the home market Is worth to us over $l,000,000,(HK) more than all the other markets of the world to which we can possibly have access. I n the case of farm pnxl ucts, to which this lying publisher partic uhrly refers, their total value in the United States for the census year m was f2,460,00O,O00, of which we exported only s.i.32,000,000, letting the demand from our home market at 11,928,000,000, every dollar's worth of which secured better value to the farmer than the Vt per rent that we shipped abroad In competition with producers In other countries. A He Is nothing to Puck's publisher unless It be a He by bolesale. rHCCHISESEFOOT BlUIM) PRAC TICE. According to Dr. Hasten (China Med. Missionary Jouru., June, 1S93) tho ordinary method of bluding th- feet Is as follows: While the great toe Is left straight, the other toes are folded on the plan tar surface of the foot, often until the tils of the toes are on a line with the edge of the Inner side of the foot, and then the foot is bound . 'Vuugly." Gradually the bandage is made tighter and tighter. Whn the uu t- atar-uri bones brgiu Incurve, making the characteristic lump on the dor sum or tne loot, tne tunaages urc tightened more rapidly thuu before. If swelling takes place above the an kle, the foot is bandaged more tightly. Swelling Is not a desirable complica tion. Ulceration Is greeted with Joy, for it is usually a sign that the foot I yielding gracefully to the inevitable. "Ijn siau klah" (ulcer, small foot) Is a common saying. To make tne smallest foot with the minimum of suffering and produce no outward re sults Is the desideratum ; this prixi? should take.tout ten years. Patience will then show her srfect work ; that which foreigners call a deformity and restricted locomotion are ncccs. sary sequela, not untoward results. They begin to bandage the feet of a child when she Is between three ami four years of age. Generally the ser vices of a professional bandager are obtained.
