He left a wife and several children. * * * The Marion County Court has again crossed swords with Sheriff Durbin. , County Judge Scott, acting without the other members of the court in official session, has employed two experts, Messrs. Clark and Buchanan of Port land and two clerical assistants, to com pile a list of all the property upon which there is due delinquent taxes for any of the past 10 years. Mr. Clark went to Sheriff' Durbin and asked for the delin- quent rolls from 1893 to 1900, but Mr. Durbin refused to turn them over. of bonds of the insular government to purchase the agricultural holdings and property of religious orders ; provide for the acquisition of homestea I rights, re gulating mining, and provide a special system of coinage and banking for the inlands. * * * With a crash, masts and spars and a rending of timbers that could be heard blocks away, the big steel four-masted French bark Asie capsized, toppling over on Davidge’s dock, Portland, on Tues day morning at 8:25, and came near carrying the dock away and sinking. No lives were lost and only one man, a longshoreman,named Charles Rosenthal, was injured. His injuries are not serious and consist of a small contusion on the head and a sprained leg The captain’s wife was rescued from the vessel with difficulty, and was taken ashore in a small boat. The dock upon which the Asie rests is a frail structure, and may carry away any moment, in which event the vessel will go down.

Traveling by sledge in Siberia in win ter has its perils, as the experience of .Mr. Robert L. .Jefferson and his friends goes to illust rate. The incident is told in "Roughing it in Siberia.” "We had chartered six sorry-look- ing horses to drag us on to the next rtage. It was night when we started. The driver, maudlin drunk, had to be helped to his seat, and we set off along the narrow roadway at the usual gal lop. which, however, soon dwindled into a mere shuffle through the snow. We had gone to sleep, and some hours after aur departure Gaskell woke me and said he thought something was w rong. "The sledge was at a standstill and our shouts to the yemshik brought nc response. Black darkness prevailed. I bundled out of ihe sledge, so be numbed that I could scarcely move. 1 felt along the sledge, sinking to my knees in the snow. "The driver’s perch was empty; and just then I stumbled over one of the horses, which was lying buried up tc its neck. It was clear that the driver had fallen from his seat, and that tlie horses had wandered from the track. The poor beasts were stuck fast, and a closer inspection showed one of them to be dead — literally frozen to d-ath. It we would save ourselves from the same fate, prompt action was neces sary. "Ihe other horses were nearly suc cumbing. They lay flat on their stom achs and nibbled at the snow. W'e cut the dead animal adrift, and using the spare rope as whips, we stood on either side of the living and lashed them till our arms ached. At length they moved, and by pushing and pulling we got the sledge turned. Then, step by step, with much floundering and many falls, we began to retrace our way. "All this in pitch darkness, in a raw cold wind, and in momentary expecta tion of one or all of the horses drop ping dead. "It was a terrible experience, but we regained the road and finally reached the village." A Family of Ten Osases flave Annual Income of $200 Each. The Best Home L. EDDY, J ) The Osage Indians, according to Gen. Pollock's annual report, own over 800 acres of land for each man, woman and child, each receiving an annuity of over $200. As an illustration, if an Indian and his wife have eight children, the a*i- | nual cash income of the family isover »2,000. Indian Agent Stephens, of the Crow Creeks, reports that a serious nuisance and detriment to progress is intertribal visiting, demoralizing to the Indians. J Capt. Cornish, of the Uintah and Ouray agency in Utah, complains in his report that there never lias been any settlement of the claim of the Uncom- pahgre. White River and Southern Utes on account of the cession of about 8,000.000 acres of land to the United States under a treaty of 1880 in consid eration of certain benefits. The treaty required that the land should be sub ject to cash entry only and that the pro ceeds after reimbursement to the United States for sums appropriated and set aside in the Ute act and paying for lands which might be ceded to the Utes by the United States, outside of iheir reservation at $1.25 per acre, should be deposited to their credit in the treasury, the interest payable to the Beware of Ointments for Utes annually with the rest of their an nuity money.

The wealthiest known living profes sional beggar, Simon Oppusich, an Aus trian, was born without feet or hands, and sympathy for his infirmities brought him a large fortune in the shape of alms. In IStiO, when he was 17 years old, he had saved £ 12,000, and in 1888 he had increased his fortune by speculation to £25.(MX) in cash and about £40,000 in Trieste and Parenzo i states. Since then he Lus quadrupled his wealth by speculation on the bourse, says the London Mail. When Tori, well-known Italian beg gar, died last year, bank books, securi ties, gold and silver and other articles, to the value of upward of £ 80,000, w^ere found in his rooms. His heirs were two nephews, who had been existing in a state of miserable poverty for years. A beggar who died in Auxerre, France, in 1805. wal found to hive bonds to the value of 1.000,000 francs in an old trunk and 400 bottles of wine of the vintage of 1790. The French seem to be a generous nation, for in the same year an old woman, who lived in a vA tched garret in the Rue de Sevres. Paris, died, leav ing government securities representing un annual income of £21, all made by begging. A beggar named Gustave Marcelin. of Avignon, died in November. 1892. and left £20,000 in French government bonds, to l»e divided equally between the city and the Bureau di llienfais- ance, the great French charity society.
