Portland, Ore. The Way Home. Two little boys of under ten Were skating on a thinly frozen canal In Jersey City. The ice broke and they disappeared in the water. That would have been the end of the story had it not been for a young man named Ira fltringham. $e had left his office in Manhattan ai usual and was on his everyday walk home after his day's work when he saw the accident, with out an instant's pause he raced out and dived into the black hoie where the boys and vanished. And he got them. Then he tried to raise the boys to safety on to the ice, though time after time the brittle ice at the edge of the hole broke and let them back Into the water. But at last, with the aid of ropes thrown from the bank, both youngsters were hauled to rfhore and life. Ira fltringham did not fol low them. He clutched feebly at the rim of the ice, but his strength had been exhausted and his hand could not keep Its grip. They got his body an hour later. "There was nothing to distinguish this from countless other eases," you say; "hundreds of soldiers are doing as much every day." So they are, fired by the call which summons them to a glorious end and sustained by the example of their comrades, nut Ira Stringham heard no such call. No one would have termed him a coward had he paused, weighed chances, rea soned, "If I go after them, we shall all be drowned, and let the great mo ment pass. He chose differently. He was something more than a mere lave to duty. His twenty-one years of life may not have been great. But he suddenly came to real greatness that night as be went home. comers.

Rabies Is Investigated. Klamath Falls Field Agent E. T.

He declared the two head of cattle that died of rabies on the Given ranch on Sprague river were brought in from Harney county last fall, but that some of the number bad grown on the ranch, and had therefore been bitten there.
