THE WHITE HOUSE.
Madison's Prrt In Giving the Execu
tive Mansion Its Name.
Just how the Wliito House came to
be so designated Is a question on
Which historians. differ. A local his
torian In Washington thinks that the
burden of proof tends to give credit
for the name to President Madison.
The structure was made of 1'ptouiac
river freestone, and the capltol proper

time the British burned the executive

the outside of the house panned. uue

son In a letter to a personal friend
wrote: "Come In and see me at any
time. You will always Cud me in at
the While House."
The executive mansion may nave
been called the White House Derore

that he has never been able to lind any
record of it. If Madison did not om
ciate at the christening it has been
emphatically stated by the historian

lishing the fact that the White House
was to be the name or tne mansion.
Up to the time of President Madison
the executive mansion, which is the
n.mitt for It. was generally spo
ken of as the president's house, but
since then it has been known by its
permanent name of White IIouse.-Ex-

A MEAL FOR A TIGER.
The Ram Was a Fighter, Though, and
Furnished a Surprise.

In the combination of speed, strength,
cunning, daring and physical beauty.
A tiger's first bounds are so rapid as to

and to jump back with a full grown

they have known it to carry away the
bait while they were putting up iuu
shelters from which to shoot it.
It is a fact, however, that the tiger
makes no pretense to invincible cour
age, as may be seen in the instance of
one kept in the Calcutta zoological
gardens, which was butted to death by
a ram. A soldier owned a fighting
ram, which became so troublesome it
had to be sent to the zoo. There it
caused so much annoyance it was de
cided to give it to the great tiger.
The tiger was so ferocious its food
was let down through a sliding grat

was lowered down. The tiger, dozing

and in n few minutes butted it to
death. New York Press.
A Little Something For the Waiter.

John never did succeed in getting that
man's name right.
" Oliver," he said, 'here's a little
something for you,' and he handed him
a 1.000 franc note (S-JOil). I told Gates
he was foolish and that he was spoil

Whether Theodore Roosevelt cap

A Wily Mocking Bird.
A naturalist tells of a droll exhibition
of fun evinced by a mocking bird. It
had only recently been captured ana
was placed near another cage in which
were two canaries, both excellent sing
ers. The mocking bird at first seemed
to be struck dumb by his voluble
neighbors; but, as it turned out after
ward, he was only biding his time.
For several days he remained silent,
taking notes, until he bad mastered
their song, when one day, without even
a preliminary rehearsal, be burst out
into a canary song in a loud, ringing
tone that struck his yellow throated
neighbors mute with astonishment.
After this it was a favorite amuseiiievit
of his to drown the voices of the ca
naries with his own loud notes when
ever they attempted to slug. Detroit

While visiting a small manufacturing

hair ornament which was badly injured
through a servant's carelessness. The

wishing probably to air her English,
sent it back to the hotel with this note:

No. 1.
Consists of 1100 acres, divided into
250 acres of wheat land. 30 acres now
set to alfalfa, with 20 acres more that can
be put in, and all under good- ditch; 800
acres grass land. This is an ideal dairy

plenty of water the year around. One of
Eastern Oregon's Best Propositions.
$14 per acre; $8000 cash; good
terms on balance.
No. 2.
Is a creek farm of 950 acres; 500

No. 3.
A BIG BARGAIN. 3800 acres,

under ditch. On this ranch three good
crops of alfalfa are grown each year and
but one irrigation is required; it is sub

This is one of the best rural homes in all

These farms join and can be had all in one deal
separately as desired.
