M. Z. Donnell. treasurer of Wasco county, h reby certify that to the best of my knowledge and belief tbe above is a true and correct report. M. Z. DONNELL. Halloa's Effort to Find (aa Ta. mt Charles Lamb. nutton's "Literary Landmarks of London" was largely a labor of love and was the result of years of hard work. Mr. Ilutton gives this example of the difficulties that stood In bis way: "Another Sunday afternoon I unvoted to a pious pilgrimage to the grave of Charles Lnmb at Edmonton. As usual, nobody at Edmonton knew anything, Tbe churchyard Is not a small one, and It Is entirely ailed. The sexton and tbe gravedlggpf and a few persons wan dering about could give me no Infor mation. Most of them bad never heard of Mr. Lamb, and I could not find the sacred spot. Naturally I applied to the rector, and as he left the vestry door after service leaning on tbe arm of a pretty young woman I approached film, raised my bat and asked politely If be could tell me whore Charles and Mary Lamb were resting. Really be could not say! And I, forgetting tbe day, the place and bis sacred office, cursed that rector for bis criminal Igno rance. 'Great heavens,' I said, 'you ought to be ashamed of yourself 1 In your care have been placed tbe ashes of oue of tbe foremost men in tbe whole his tory of English letters. And you don't know where they arel They have made your churchyard and your parish dis tmgulshed all tbe world over. I have come 3,000 miles to visit Charles Lumb's grave, and you, tbe rector of tbe church, don't know where It Is You ought to be heartily ashamed of yourself.' And I turned upon my heel and left him standing there speechless and confounded." Half an hour after tbe above incident occurred and while Hutton was grop Ing around the graveyard in the twl light tbe rector came to blm, bat In band, apologized most humbly for bis Ignorance, wblcb he bad corrected In tbe meantime, and conducted him to the grave of the Immortal Ella.

The number of obsolete worda that are to be found In Webster's Diction ary Is considerably larger than people have any Idea of. The following letter, written by an alleged poet to nn editor who had treated his poetry with derl sion, furnishes some idea of them: Sir You have behaved like an Im petlginous scrogle! Like those who, en vious of any moral celsitude, carry their unglcity to the height of creating symposlcally the fecund words which my pollymatbic genius uses with liber ty to abiigate the tongues of the weet less! Sir, you have crassly parodied my own pet words as though they were trangrams. I will not coascervate re proaches I will oduce a veil over tbe atramenatal Ingratitude which bas chamfered even my indlscerptible heart I am silent on the focillatlon which my coadjuvancy must have glv- en you when 1 offered to become your fantor and adminicle. I will not apeak of the lippitude, the oblepsy, you have shown In exacerbating me, one whose genius you should have approached with mental discalceatlon. So I tell you, without supervacaneous words, nothing will render Ignosclble your conduct to me. I warn you that I would velllcate your nose If 1 thought that any moral diarthrosls thereby could be performed If I thought I should not lmplgnorate my reputation, Go, tachygrapblc scrogle, band with your crass Iqulnate fantors; draw ob- Jectatlons from the thought, if you can, of having synchronlcally lost the exlstlmatlon of the greatest poet since Milton." And yet all these words are to be found In the dictionary. Chicago Jour nal. Multiple Screw. Multiple screws were used as early as the American civil war on certain vessels known as "tin clads" on the Mississippi, their adoption being neces sitated by the shallow draft, Tbe great advantage they possess In securing a vessel against total disablement and for maneuvering soon made them the rule In the navy. They were much longer in coming into use In tbe mer chant service. But since tbe era of the very large transatlantic steamers, be ginning with the Paris and New York and the Teutonic and Majestic, all very large vessels have been built with twin screws. The Wl. The wig Is older than civilization, for the savage used one to make blm more formidable on tbe field of battle. Tbe French revolution killed tbe article aa a piece of headgear. Before the guillo tine fell in France the wigs which adorned the heads of Its victims cost f 180 to $200. The costly decoration lin gered a long time on official beads in England. So recently as 1858 Arch bishop - Sumner found It necessary to wear one at the marriage of tho prin cess royal. WHITE SALMON. rHtl TH NTKttr'IMK.

Tbe Old Times social given by Tbe ladies of tbe Women's Working Club at the church Wednesday night waa very enjoyable as well as very unique affair. Tbe ladies of tbe Club were dressed in tbe old time styles prevalent 40 yours ago when they all wore pantalettes eto. wnite tne men were arrayed like tbier grandfathers in tbelr si iff and furbelowed manner. The affair was very well gotten op and consisted of a very well rendered program, tbe olub ladies rendering a number of old time songs and recita tions. A large collection of old pho tographs of people whom wo know and meet every day as tney looked zu to 50 years ago was arranged for a guess ing contest, tne one naming tne larg est number correctly to receive a prize. This was won by Miss Geneva Wolfard. The prize for tne Dest rep resentation of old style costume was given to Mrs. Dr. Geai hart for the ladies and to Mr. A. ll. jeweit lor tbe gentlemen. We understand that Mr. llottmau bas been bavlug an Interesting time in Uoldendale this ween witn a case In court in wbioh be was tbe defend ant acainst the State of Washington. From what we learn or tne case it seems tbat Mr. Hottman fenoed np an old abandoned road which ran through bis homestead claim near Gilmer and a man living near him who had himself fenoed up the same road aome time pi lor, made a complaint against Mr. Hottu an and caused bis arrest. A large number ot people were sub peneod as witnesses on tbe case and we near that tne case was very uouy contested, tbe trial lasting about two daya before being given to the jury. Then tne jury wresuea an mgnt over tbe matter and finally, as there were six men on oue side and six on tbe other, the case went over. We believe from wbat we cau learn or. mis mauer tbat it is a case of pure spite work and should never have been taken up in the first t lace and It should be thrown out of court. and RTJTHTON Everbyody Is taking a rest joying the "beautiful snow."
