THE NEW BABY.
There came to port lust Sunday
The queerest al tie cruft.
Without an inch of rigging on;
! looked and looked and laughed.
It seemed so curious tl.t she
Should cross the unka->u u wat**r
And moor herself right in my room—
My daughter, oh. my daughter!
She had no manifest but this.
No flag floats o'er her water;
She's loo new for the British Lloyds—
My duughter. oh. my daughter!
Ring out, w.l I hells, and lamed ones tool
Ring out the lover’s moon!
Ring in the little worsted so, ksl
Ring in the bib and sp..oa.
Ring out the music; ring in the nursel
Ring in the milk and water!
Away with paper, pen and ink—
My daughter, oh, my duughter!

FLORIDA GIRLS.
Not long ago two Fiori la girls con­
cluded to take a day’s hunt ill the Great
Aurantula hammock, the upper edge of
which touches the river Starting out
early, they made good progress, and by 9
o'clock were in the midst of the wild
hammock. During the forenoon they
had luck—killing a deer, a wildcat, 10
big gray squirrels and several enormous
snakes. After taking a uoonday lunch
they decided to cross over Alligator
creek, a wide but shallow stream that
crosses the hammock, emptying into the
Withlacochee. Just before reaching the
creek they had to pass through a dense
canebrake for several rods. When about
half way through, one of their dogs that
had lingered behind came rushing up,
yelping lustily, while close on its heels
was a big black bear, fierce and ugly as
it could be. The ¡>ath was so narrow
that they had no chance to fight the ani­
mal. and in fact the dog and bear came
in on them so suddenly that little time
was allowed for reflection.
Miss Josie sluug her rifle around and
fired ut the beast, but in the confusion
only wounded him. Thu girls than ran
ahead, intending to get out on to the
open bank by the water's edge, so as to
get a fair ground to battle old bruin.
But the infuriated animal, aroused to
madness by the rifle ball, pursued them
so closely that only scientific dodging
saved them from a close hug. Emerging
from tne i>ath. they noticed the boat used
to cross the creek lying right in front of
t’.iem. and both of the girls, struck with
t.ie same idea, sprang into it. tiieir im­
petus carrying it out into the creek.
The dog was unable to get into the
boat, but he bit at bruin's heels so sharp­
ly that the latter had to stop his pursuit
of the git u and endeavor to punish his
tour footed assailant. Cut the dog was
too wary and kept out of his re.ic’i. The
girls called him. and plunging in he
swam out to them. Meanwhile tne hun­
gry denizens of the creek, who e n lin­
ters gave it its name, were awakened by
the tumult, and they began to show
themselves As tile dog juinjieil in, the
splash ut.ratted scores of the ugly rep­
tiles from ell directions, and the water
was dotted by the black snouts of the
hungry g.i.ors
The g'^» noticed this and called en­
couragingly to their dog. who seemed to
be ful J' aware of his danger. Several
black noses were already pointed in his
direction, and it looked as if the 'gators
might get a meal. But Wilda seized the
pole lying at the bottom of the canoe,
and by a skiil.nl push seut the boat close
to the dog Josie was waiting, and as
the i.eg swum up she helped him to
clamber over the side, almost upsetting
the trail vessel. And it was just in time,
too, for jnst as the dog's legs slipped
out of the water a huge pair of jaws rose
out of the depths with an ominous snap.
Withasonse the disappointed aaur.an
sank.
While this was going on bruin stood
on the bank, growling and snarling in
im|s>tent rage at the dog and girls t ms
escaping. Seeing the dog in the canoe
seemed to render hup still more furious,
and with a deep growl he dashed into
the water and began Bwimming toward
the boat. Between the bear and the
gators the girls began to think their
hands would lie full. Wilda picked up
her gun and made a snap s.iotat the aui
mat. but a movement of the dog discon­
certed her aim. and the load of bnckshot
flew to one side, only a sm.ill number
striking the bear. But they angered mm
the more, an l with a snarl he almost
leaped out of the waterin Ins mud eager-
nets to reach the boat.
Wilda dropped the gun. and picking
up the pole soon placed the boat a rod
a lead of the pursuing animal. Josie had
again reloaded her gun. and she turned
to deliver his quietus to the animal But
the commotion in the water and the
bear s evident disquietude put a new face
on matters, and she withheld her fire.
The dog's yelping anil the bear's growl­
ing had evidently awakened the scaly
denizens of the creek to a realizing sense
that it was mealtime. Mis ing the dog.
they were not averse to bear meat,
bruin, in his hurry to catch his first
prey, had paid little atten ion to w mt
might befall him in the creek. But now
he began to notice the increasing num
tier of black spots in the water all turn­
ing toward him. and probably instinct
told him that hungry gators in their
i wu element were a foe not to be de-
pined.
With an uneasy whine, be attempted
to turn and regain the shore, but now it
was too late. With a rush, a big black
form was seen to dart np again t him.
and in a second he was seized and dragged
under. The old fellow was game, bow
ever, and now that he bad got into the
tight be proved no mean antagonist
With an immense effort he plnnged away
from the attacking gator and da*h<-d
forward for the shore. The water sh. «led
and it seemed as if be would escape. A
big bull i in nan daihe.1 forward and
seized the bear by one of his hind legs,
while two others swstn behind h.m to
rut off hie retreat.
With a deep roar of rage, the bear
turned on the one that seized him. anl
with one stroke of bi* P»w clawed out
ths gator s eye. The latter bellowed
with pain, an J thrashing tbs water mad-
y plunged forward at bruin. Other
tutors joined in. and the poor anima)
was beset on all sides. Sitting on its
launches, with the bloo.l flowing from a
piping wound in its hmd leg, the bear
mapped, clawed and bit at his savage
uitagouists. but they were too many for
lim.
Another seized one of its legs in its
Powerful jaws, and with a strong effort
irew the bear off into deeper water,
Jthi rs dashed at him from all sides,
sn ipping at him from every point. The
i .iter splashed high and was churned
1 .to snowy whiteness by the furious ef-
1 rts of the fighters, save win re the red
I ioo.l told the tale. But a few moments
longtr did the unequal struggle last.
Bruin strove to regain his feet, but the
cruel jaws of the reptiles closed on his
legs, sides ail 1 wherever a hold could be
s. ared. and with one mighty, agonizing
roar the bear disappeared, while the fu­
rious struggle continued under water
for sever.,1 seconds.
The girls bud gazed on the fight spell­
bound. Lut uow they were rudely
aroused to their own peril. The dog had
barked loudly during the savage fight
going on so near, aud the gators who
missed bear meat seemed to be after
dog's flesh. The canoe rocked, almost
overturning, und the startled girls saw a
monstrous pair of open jaws right at the
side cf the.r small craft. Josie pushed
her rifle barrel ill the gator's mouth and
pulled the trigger, sending a bullet where
it evidently uidn't agree, judging from
the reptile's sudden sinking and thrash­
ing about.
A moment later a huge tail came fly­
ing over the bow of the boat, and strid­
ing the dog, who stood there barking,
knocked him into the water. A big pair
of wide opu jaws was just about to
close on tile tempting morsel when Wil­
da stooped down, and catching the dog's
forepaws by a sudden effort drew him
into the boat, the saurian's yaws closing
with a suup that indicated a great disap­
pointment. The dog cow -red down in
the bottom of the boat, waile the girls
attended to the other gators, who seemed
to manifest an inclination to get into the
canoe. Several shots were fired at the
reptiles, Lut their taste of blood hud
made them tearless.
A scream from Josie aroused Wilda,
who was striving to pole the boat asaore.
Turning around she suw her s.ster ha.f
drawn out of the canoe, a big uionsttr
gator having se.zed her dress. Josie
was beating t..e gator over the nose
with her nfi-j with oae hand, while with
the other sue euueuvored to hold herself
in the boat. Wi.liout a moment's hesi­
tation
*>da raised the long jiole s..e
was using, and poising it u moment
threw it ut tne gator's head. By rare
good fortune it struck him in the eye
ui.d i>emtrutcd to the Lruin. With a
loud bellow tne reptile sank.
For the next few minutes the brave
girls had all they could do—one firing ut
the sauriaus us they approached too
closely, wuile the other, using the breech
of her gun ;;s u paddle, urged the canoe
to snore. As it touched the sand both
leuped out and ran up the bank. None
toosoon either, for a big, pursuing gator,
in its desperation at losing its prey,
threw itself forward, crushing in t.ie
sides of the boat. The girls concluded
that taey had had enough hunting for
that day and returned homo by ano.her
route.—Million.

lumbering business gets well started.
The lumbering interests are by far the most
important resource of the county, and this re-
source cannot possibly be exhausted within the
next hundred years. The improvement of the
harbors and the opening of the Nicaragua canal
will bring all the lumber produced on this coast
within reach of the Atlantic coast market, and
there will a)>o at that time be a greater demand
for lumber on this coast as a general degree of

DAIRYING.
Next in importance to Tillamook's lumbering I
resources, are the dairy interests. Grass is good
here the year 'round. Feed is plentiful ami
easily produced, the climate is so temperate that
cattle thrive; and all the conditions here con­
tribute towaids making dairying successful.
The grasses and natural feed are of a kind
that produces the best milk and butter. The
climate is so even aud cool, ami the water so
pure that the butter here ¡»osscsses the finest
flavor if any care is taken in making it. This
business is found very profitable here aud
nearly two hundred tous of butter have been
hipi>ed from here during the past year. Gene
ral stock raising goes with dairying here gene­
rally, and is very profitable.
Tillamook is in about the same latitude as
St. Paul, Minnesota, though the climate heie is
much warmer and moreeveu. The Japan current
warms the shores of this region in such a way
that winter is hardly noticed here. There is
little or uo snow generally, and when it does fall
it soon melts away. The principal feature of
whiter is the longcontinued rains, always warm
and this season of the year is remarkably health
ful. The summers are unsurpasst d. No finer
climatic conditions exist than those of a Tilla­

poses. and is made into flooring and rustic
weather-boarding largely. A great deal of fir is
used for ship masts. Timbers, 150 feet long have
been sawed from it in many instances. Spruce
is a softer wood, is white and is used mostly for
finishing lumber and for lajxes and barrels.
Being odorless, it is goo«l for packing butter
and fruits. The largest area of spruce in the
Northwest is found in Tillamook county, and as
it Is growing scarce elsewhere, it will lie of great
value in a short time. Most of the luml»er man­
ufactured here now is made from spruce. The
c dar takes an elegant finish, and is the very-
best material for doors, sash and shingles. It
commands a high price at present.
Nearly all of the timber in this county is ad
jac nt to streams that will float logs, and with a
little labor all of it can lie put in streams w here
the winter fresh« ts will bring it to the bay. The
exp-nse of logging here will al ways be small.
The county is a net work of rivers that cheapen
the cost of logging right at the stmt. Many of
these rivers ar-• good sized streams on their lower
c.iui» ua. but the Coast Range prevents their be­
ing very long, and dozens of «‘reeks course down
the innumerable canyons of the range, uniting
into one large stream. No less than fi vr rivers

of these strva.ua ar«' aflfe«'ted by the tide and so
far as the tide water extends inland, steamboat
navigation is carried on. Thia makes the navig

great. ai d the fa<*ititie* for rafting logs are much

Salmon fishing is carried (»11 during the fishing
season on Tillamook bay, on Nehalem bay, and
sometimes 011 Nestucca bay. The output of j
canned salmon amounts in value to >50,000 to
$200,000 every year, and gives employment to a
great many fishermen. There arc canneries at
each of the above named places and the item of
canned salmon amounts each year to much
more than the wheat of some uf the grain
