An unhappy story attaches to the removal to (lie county poor farm, of Mrs, Kred Smith, nee Alice Otlen. As related by a relative the story tells of wretchedness and poverty uncommon In olvlliad communities. The late home of the unfortunate woman was the summit of the Elliott mountain, several miles northwest of Corvallls. "A fir pole pen." said this relative, "ten hy twelve feet in dimensions with a leaky cover over It, wits the sole refuge of Ihe mother, her three-year-old child and thirteen-rnouths infant from Ihe storm aud inclement weather. The husband has never endeavored to provide for his family, the wife many times being tlriveu by hunger to the distant neighbors for food for herself aud children. Schmidt has also been cruel in his treatment of the woman. At one time he lashed ber hands and feet to a liedstead, and in that uncom fortable position left her to wear out the long minute? of the day in the best way she could. The most of the sup plies for Ihe wretched family, ever since the forty acres of fine land left Mrs. Bchmidt by her grandfather, was frittered away, have been the dona tions of relatives. Three weeks before Mrs! Schmidt and her two children were taken to the poor farm Schmidt left them alone in the mountain cabin, nod went to Lincoln county. The stock of provisions became exhausted, aud, driven out by starvation the mo ther with the two babes in her arms made her way to Isaac Jaokson's, where they were Lindly cured for, until brought to relatives near Corval iis. Schmidt did not return from the Lincoln county trip, until after his wife had gone to the poor farm. Schmidt has not carried out his threat to take his wife out of the poor house, aud husgone back to his cabin alone. He Is a big husky with strength and health, and the fact that he hardly attempts to support those de pending upon him, makes of Mr Schmidt a very ornery scrub, Mrs. Emma G. Hannah Insane. On complaint of the physician at the atale penitentiary In Salem, Mrs. Emma O. Hannah, who was convicted in Albany of killing Mrs. Lottie Hiatt at Jordan, Linu county, on September 26, 1895, and who was, in November, 1305, sentenced to imprisonment in the penitentiary for lile, was Friday afternoon examined before the lawful board, and declared iusane .and was removed to the lusatie asylum. Mrs. Hannah has shown symptoms of insanity for some lime. Sl.e insists that she is pursued by somebody who is trying to kill her. The strain upon ber during a year's imprisonment seems to haye resulted In a mental col lapse. Should she recover she would he compelled to return to imprison ment, unless ber malady should in fluence the governor toward executive elemency. Herald. Stock Business Looking Up, Mr. Walter Brown has returned firm bis trip to Eastern Qregon. He reports the stock business booming all over that section. One Chicago buyer aloue has purchased 31,000 bead of call le, 20,000 in Coob and Baker cou li lies and 11,000 along Snake river. These cattle will be started eastward about July 1st. Many other buyers are visiting that part of the country, Thousands of million sheep will be driven from that section this spring. Sheep men are generally discouraged ou aocouut of their summer range be ing refused iu the government reserve, aud an effort will lie made to have this thrown open, as it should be, at an early dale.

Letter From Asia, The Albiiny Democrat publishes a letter received by Mr. and Mm. Jus. Marks from their son in-hiw, Rev,.C. U. Cullender, now In Asia. The letter reads us follows: Chino Mai, Laos, Dec. 20, 1800, rile annual meeting of Mission and Presbytery has Just closed, having been In session two weeks. To-morrow most of the missionaries from other stations start home. We have been as signed to Lnkuwn for one veur; at the expitation of that lime we may he as. signed to the same station or to an other. The mission meeting seems to oeuaeB uieinninst coin, rencu where the place of each minister is deter mined, with this difference Methodist ministers are sent bv the bialinn. work. ers iu Ihe mission are sent by the whole body, after consulting the pref erences, anil reasons for such, of indi viduals. The difficulties multiply and the work litcomeH more comnlicateil each year is forces increase both by mission aries and ingathering of native con vert,,, some ot wnoni are preaching the gospel. The meetliiB of mission is conducted in English, but the Preshy- icr.v iu me i.uo tongue. 1 nere are six stations that constitute the mission Praa, Nun, Lakuwn. Lamooou. (now a sub-station of Cliing Mai) Chlng Mai, and Cuing Hai, which is a new station to be opened soon. In the whole mis sion are 25 missionaries, 3 of whom are ai nome on tnrlough, and 3 others are going home soon. As a rule returned missionaries return to the foreign Held after one yeui ;s stay at home. In this number I have not included the wives of missionaries, but ordained ministers, physicians and lady teachers. In the native ministry ure 8 ordained minis ters and 3 licentiates. In Chine Mai is a theological training school for the native ministry, iu which there were 30 Ibis year. Chlng Mai church has a membership of over 700. During the year just past about 230 were added to the different churches, 15 in number. The North Laos Presbytery has the name of receiving a greater ratio into tue church than any other, whether iu foreign or borne laud. I must express surprise at Ihe good time missionaries here have. Tenuis is a commou game for recreation and exercise, as also is horseback-riding. There is scarcely no end to horses; they are much smaller, however, than those at home. There are no wagons, but for short hauling ox-carts are used. For long traveling either horses or elephants are used as pack animals, and often men carry goods of the mis sionary Houses of missionaries are large and tint; as a rule I think they are better than houses of home missionaries. Cli matic conditions necessitate large rooms and plenty of them. Bath rooms are attached to all Ihe houses, the bath being a very important faclor to health. In short, the foreign mission ary is provided with comforts of life essential to the preserving of health and progress of God's work. From the standpoint of temporal comfort I do not see that we have sacrificed any thing. Aside from the separation from telatlvts it does not seem a sacrifice. When one considers that hoaie mall comes every two weeks (if there Is any) by which if he takes papers, he ujay be as well informed as those at borne this news Is a little behind time and when one thinks especially of the rich blessings coming from preaching the gospel and teaching and seeing scores brought into Ihe kingdom, besides other temporal comforts which have been mentioned, when one considers these things it call scarcely be said that the element of self-sucrilice ought to any considerable degree enter the mind either of those going or those who are left iu the home field. I think the aelf-sacrilicing nart is on the side of those remaining at home nther than ou that of the one going. We are glad we have come, mid believe that liod's hand of love will guide us further and cause us to be a blessing in tue j,ao lana. A Clubbing Oder.
