The meeting of the Northwest Fruit Growers' association nt Spokane was Ihe most successful ever held. Rep resentative horticulturists, railroad and commission men were present from all over the Northwest und n far East as ChleaL'O. Houses which handled Hood River fruit last year had representative nt the meeting from Chicago, Ht. Paul, Minneapolis, Winnipeg, Great Kails, Fargo, Dead wood and other principal points. Mr. Evans was informed by these representatives that they were greatly pleased with Hood River strawberries and would be able to handle increased quantities the coming season. Funds were raised for the publication of the many valuable papers read before tlie association for t lie last two years. Hon. E L. i-'niith was elected vice president for Oregon. The i,ext meeting will be held atTacoma. 'Ex-Senator Jas. II. Slater died at his home in LuUrande, January 2Sth,aged T.'! years. Deceased was a pioneer of Oregon and prominent in the politics of Ihe state as a democrat. He was a membes of the territorial legislature, and afterwards of the saate legislature; served one term na representative in conuresiand one term in the United Htatett senate.. Ho was a plain, honest man, u good citizen, a wise statesman, und u firm friend of I lie common people. The national editorial association Mill tutet in Portland some time in June. All parts of the fetates of Oregon mid Washington are promising to do nate liberally toward the entertainment of the editors. Hood River Is put down for half n carload of strawberries, but we can do better than that. If the editors will come to see us we will give them the freedom of the strawberry patches and furnish sugar and cream to go with the berries. Our delegation in congress are work ing for the passage of the bill to give pensions to the Indian War veterans of Oregon and Washington. It (teems strange that these old warriors who re claimed this country from the savages and the wilderness fifty years ago should now be compelled to beg for recognition of their services by a gov ernment that has been so liberal in ex tending Us bounty to ils defenders. Senator Josephi's bill to prohibit doctors from advertising their skill by publishing testimonials might be a good law, but how does he ever expect to get it passed in the face of a united opposition of the press? Willi such a law in force the old subscriber would fail to recognize his weekly paper with the patent medicine testimonials elim inated. ' ' Outside of the United Stales senate the sentiment in favor of electing sena tors by direct vote of the people seems to he unanimous. Rut to do so will require a constitutional amendment, and here the millionaire senators stand in tlie way. They will never vote for such an amendment, knowing, most of them, that they could never be elected by a direct vote of tlie people. The new crop of millionaire United States senators is ipiite large this year, especially in the Northwestern and mining states. In some pails of the East, however, and down in the be-1 (lighted South, they still keep up the! . I , ; e . . I uni-iojry practice or electing uieu on (heir merits. White Salman Side. (,. K.

Tlie following ess-iy was composed by Martin Nickelst-n and lead before the Kranklou school: Snow is a wliiie substance, formed of freezing vapor. It fidls in 11. ikes, and em-li 11. ike is composed of a number of very small crystals. These crystals are not round or riiiure, but resemble stars of six points Snow only comes in a I'crlain season i-alled winter. Snow Hakes look very lilMiitii'ul, as when tlie air is still they c hoc sailing down, llnatiug gently and lightly, and grad ually settling to the ground, lonkiriif like small feathers. Snow covers and protects sown grain and certain trees and shrubs from frost. It coveis up rubbish, leaving every I hing beautiful to the eye; it covers up ami helps to decay old leaves, rotten logs und vencml rub liisli.aliil it fertilizes hind when it melts. Jt is important in steamboat cominuid catioli and general commerce inland, loelliiigand keeping most of Ihe mighty l iveiMif the world full, thus milk lutr rich many large commercial merchaiiis mid transportation companies. The Mississippi and Missouri livers are kept full by snow. Snow has decided the contest of great nations also. It was the ( lirisimas of 1770, in the second year of the itexolu tioii.aud the iJritisli nt Treiilon thought ttllscfe. Though Washington was en camped on the opposite side of Ihe river, they well knew his condition a.-.d ihe straits lie was in, and thought him incapable of cros-dug the river, for it having a swift curient, and being full of crowding, jumbling ice, moving doivn stream, it was exceedingly dan gerous. Their fears were lessened still more by a terrible snow storm which set in. Rut Washington came, dan gerous as it was, and early on tlie morn ing alter Christmas he lound himseif in Ihe suburbs of Trenton. The snow prevented Ihe cannon from rumbling and (he tramping of the troops from being heard, so he was upon the town before they, within, who were dancing and feasting and little thinking of their enemy, could get the ulann and form. In 1SU', Napoleon Bonaparte was driven nut of Russia with great loss from the intense cold, by snow or win ter selling In, Ihus overcoming the ef forts and intellect of man and showing what the weapons of God and the force of Nature have done. Snow comes to give pleasure to peo ple, loo sleigh-riding and coasting, snowballing and skating on ice. There is much pleasure in sleigh-riding, es pecially for young folks. Imagine yourself with some friends gliding peacefully along, with sluigh bells ring ing and horses spirited, p issing snug little farms and trees looking as beau tiful as in summer, with their houghs laden heavily and bending with their burden of snow, which looks like great tufts of cotton, and bushes which are laden with snow until they look like great white cushions. Taken through and through, snow is one of Nature's most useful members. 1 February Ladies' ilouie Journal. Tlie February Ladies' Home Journal odors more t lian the expected variety of literary and pictorial features. It opens with tin article by Mrs. Railing ton Rooth, taking tlie reader through Stale prisons, pointing out the awl'ul ness of prison life, and (he hopelessness of a released prisoner's etlotts to gain unaided a pla'ee where he can get a livelihood. The story touches tlie heart and will attract wide spread in terest, Mrs. Lewis Wallace writes of ''The Murder of the Modern Innocents," a powerful and convincing protest against tlie over education of children. "Tlie Story of New York's Social Life" gives interesting glimpses of Gotham society, and " The Largest Ranch in the World" describes a Texas pasturage as large as two States of our Union. The three serials, The Girls of Camp Are.-idy," Miss Wilkins' "Tlie Jamesons in the Country," and "The Minister of Carthage" continue with dash and a successful interest. Two pages of the February journal are worthily devoted to pictures of "The i'reltii st Country Homes in America," and two more to "Inside of a Score of Gardens." Roth features are the inaugural parts of a series of pictures that will he interest ing and useful to every home owner or lover of Nature's work. Rarton Chey ney lells hoys why and where they should learn trades, and William Mar tin Johnson continue!) his "House Practical" scries; "Good Furniture and Furnishing" are pictured, "Making a Home Aquarium" is explained, and "Gowns for Unusual Figures" are shown.

The lluid in t he pitcher was poured into glasses containing in visible chemicals, and soon there were displayed many beautiful colors. ;. g. n. MOKNIXO EXKliCbSM. Ruling the opening exercise period, Prof Allatd lias been reading Tourgce's "Rrieks Without Straw," in connec lioti with our study of tlie cixil war. Tlie scene is laid in tlie South. Tlie slory is a strong one. It describes events which occurred both duringaiid afler tlie war. One of the principal characteis is "Nimbus," ti slave belong ing to Colonel llesiiiit, who left his muster and enlisted in the Union army. Nimbus was a man of great physical strength, rather grave in appearance and of great determination and stead iness, included among (lie principal characters arc Eliab Hill, the colored preacher, a cripple; Hesden leMoyiie, who was at heart a Union man but Joined bis fortunes with his adopted state, South Carolina, at the opening of Ihe war. ReMnyiie rode a niagiiitl cent black horse, named Midnight," to the war, which lie lost. Midnight was taken by a Union captain, who rude the horse home afler the war and at his death, a few months later, gave him to his sister, Miss Mollie" Ainslie, who afterwards went South to engage in leaching it negro school, taking the horse Midnight with her. in iheslory is described "The Ruivau," an institu tion to protect tlie rights of tlie colored man. At present the story is only partially completed, ami we are all anxiously wailing the conclusion Annktt'e. The study of history in the eighth grade is very inieres'i ing. An excel lent outline, with - minor events stir rounding greater ones, has been ar ranged by Prof. Allard. This was studied first, then came the reading and discussion of the text book. JACKSON IN THE MIKNANDOAII. When the federal forces took posses sion of Ihe bridge over the Shenandoah, Jackson and his stall' were on the south side, Ids army being on I he north aid. It is Slid tiiat "lie rode towaid (lie bridge, and rising in his stirrups, called sternly to I lie federal o Ulcer command ing the artillery placed lo sweep it; 'Who ordered you to post that gun there, sir'." Rring It over here!1 The bewildered ollicer bowed, limbered up Ids piece and prepared to move. Jack son and his stall' seized the lucky mo ment and dashed across the bridge be fore the gun could be brought to bear upon them." Roys bsrii in Germany who have never been beyond the walls of Ham burgh, speak English, Spanish, French, etc. To this, as much as to any ol her factor, this empire owes its wonderful success in recent years. SKKTCU OF 1IAWTH011NK. Tlie following essay, written by one of our class, is u fair illustration of'whut we are lining along the line of litera ture. The essay was neatly written and properly punctuated. Its sen tences, though of considerable length, are to the point. Scarcely any of it could be omitted and convey the same thoughts. It begins witli tbe 'author's infancy, showing his parentage, and goes smoothly through his boyhood and school days. Next, his manhood Is reached, staling the period of seclu sion and its ellects. Then comes his works and their characteristics, and last of all Ids death. This is beyond doubt an excellent biography:- i Nathaniel Hawthorne was born In Salem, Massachusetts, on the 4'.h of July, ISOi. His ancestors, very stern and gloomy- Puritans, had probably helped in persecuting Quakers and fei relinif out witches iu this same place one hundred years before. 'I hese old deeds made a deep impression on Hawthorne's thoughts, as can be seen in Ids works. His father, who was a very quiet, mel ancholy man, died when' his boy was only four yeais old. His mot her' then shut herself up and would have noth ing to do with the outside world. When Nathaniel was 12 years of age they moved to his uncle's place, near Lake Sebago, Maine, hs lonely a spot as can be imagined. Here lie was ab solutely without companions. His amusements were bunting, walking. skating timl reading. He attended I v Rowdoin colleee, Maine, where lie was a classmate of Longfellow.
