The High School Excursion.
Last Saturday morning did not dawn
* very bright but it failed to discourage
t the High School students who gathered
*1 at Elliott's dock at seven o’clock, ready
for the.early stnrt to’lhe Gurilmldi beach,
** The lunch baskets were deposited in
*’the bow and amid a llutter ot hand-
r- kerchiefs the merry party stalled on its
pi way
The Antelope made good time and w as
in. soon at the Beal's place on the bay where
■< it stopped to get Gladys, Helen and
Wl Burr on board.
"I They reached Garibaldi at nine o'clock
* and after disembarking they all started
for the beach. The morning was spent
in visiting the Life Saving station anil
the Look Out House, from where the
Tillamook Rock Light House could
plainly be seen.
Afterwards everyone
went back to camp where coffee was
made and served by Miss Shirk and Miss
Centerwall, and a good hearty lunch
was eaten hy the hungry crowd.
The afternoon was spent in various
ways, but all reported n good lime when
they again met together at the launch
After a hasty lunch at five they started
back up the bay leaching home in safety
or twice for »light injuries and short
arguments,
There is a question yet as to who the
game belongs to. But if the H. 8 can
do whac she did last time after spending
a day on the beach there is no question
as to how the next game will turn out.
The game was a tie, 24 to 24, just be­
fore the whistle blew when a foul was
called on Bay City, and a foul basket
thrown making the score 25 to 24 in
favor of the H. S. One of the timekeep
ers said the w histle blew while the ball
was in the air and just befere it hit the
basket, but the other failed to see how
he conld tell whether it was in the air
or not when be was looking intently at
his watch.
It was agreed after the game to play
again, but Bay City can not fulfill the
agreement as they hnve no place to
practice.

Van Camp’s Pork and Beans.
The Van Camp‘family were a very
poor Dutch family at the beginning of
iny story. The Van Camps had two
children, a boy lfans, end a girl Lena,
but they were both very small when they
came from Holland. At the time my
story opens Hans was five and Lena
three years of age. When they landed
in lodianapolia, Indiana, they were
nearly out of mon-y, so Mr. Van Camp
set to work nt various jobs, while Mrs.
Van Camp took care of the children.
But soon she thought of a good scheme,
aud with what looney they ha<l lliey
bought a little one loomed store in a
locality quite suitable.
An advertisement waa soon swinging
before lhe door ill big black letters
which lead, ” Van Camp's Pork and
Beans. '
Boon the place was sought by people
from all parts of the city, and touieel
tbeir ordeis a larger establishment must
be found. Very often customers went
away crest fallen when they could not
get any of the delicious beans. They
soon bought a larger building which
they fitted up for that purpose, and their
business flourished
Orders were con
stantly coming from all parts of the
city, so to oblige the orderers, Hans and
Lena were fitted out with a small auto­
mobile to deliver. It was the height of
their delight to tour the city, Ilans the
Cliaffeur, and Lena by his side, her
quaint little Dutch bonnet flying in the
wind, and the large can of beans on her
lap
And so they worked on for months,
which soon grew into years. Bars and
Lena did not keep at their work long,
as an education was necessary,
" Van Camp's Pork aud Beans" are
now known all over the world as u
delicious dish. Hans is the overseer of
the establishment, with a young and
happy wife at hi« side. The establish,
ment has grown to an immense factory
supplying the world with its products.
Lena is the beautiful wifeof a New York
banker, who can well be pioud of her.

Thomaa B. Macaulay.
One day Donald’s mother told him
that it was time to go to the pasture
after the cows, and this is w-liat he
said, “I do wish there had never been
such a thing as a pasture, any way.”
‘ A very unthouglitful wish, to say
the least, my son,” Baid the mother.
“ Why aren’t you ever thankful tor
the many blessings you receive?"
“Ugh! I don’t call pastures bless
lugs,’’ said Donald.
“ You may be glad to be surrounded
by such beauties of nature some time,
my boy.’’
" Perhaps so,” was the youth’s ear
castic reply.
A few days after this conversation,
Donald read au advertisement in the
daily paper which ran as follow:
’• Wanted, a steady boy to do office
work. *Work easy. Reasonable pay."
As Che boy read this his heart leapt fjr
joy. The next morning, against the
will of his holiest old parents, lie began
prepartions for going co the city. Just
after noun, he liade them farewell and
took leave of the old farm of hie boyish
youth. He thought to himself as his
car glided on toward the great ci.y of
Chicago, ’’ From this time on my work
will tie merely play ”
However, the boy’s ideas of city life
changed after a few- dais in the office of
Mr. IV. He became dissatisfied, of
c iurse ami decided to try something
different. It was not long before lie
came in contact with other boys not
unlike himself, ami his morals became
very low. He went on in this way for
several years, never working unless
absolutely necessary, until at last he
became broken down in health and
spirits He n iw longed for a comfort­
ing word, an atmosphere live from dust,
and a glimpse of the open country
fields. Would he go back to Ins old
country home ? No. The very lemem.
brance of his parent s counsel, com­
pelled him to abandon such a thought.
So lie just existed, finding uocomfort at
all ill life.
How much better it would have been
for him had he taken some advice. How
much better it would be for all of us if
we were thankful for the many bless­
ings we receive dally, but of which we
take no notice and do not in the least
appreciate.

"What wonder if Sir Launfal now

He ordered his servants to bring to him
bis richest mail and best steed, for to-

Thomas B. Macaulay was born in
England, October 35th. 1800, His
father was a Scotch Calvinist, and was a
strong tieliever in anti-slavery, His
mother was an English Quaker, She
bad ii gentle disposition and molt great
pride In her boy.
At the age cf three Macaulay read
incessantly, and was fond of telling
what lie read. He would tell Ilia nurse
endless’stories w hen out walking, and
would compare his eiery day life with
what he read in books. He thought
more of his books than of bit toys.
Afier leaving a private school al
Cambridge, lie entered Cambridge
Uuiveraity. While there lie.met several
young uieu who were interested io
literature, and who had a great Influence
over Ilia after life, lie received a fel­
lowship while at college.
After leaving college he studied law,
and was admitted to the bar, but did not
practice much.
He was elected to
Parliament from Edinburg. His first
great oration was in 1831, and was on
"Die Refoims Bill." All that was needed
to fill the house was "Macaulay was
np." He ran for re-election, but was
defeated.
He was elected Supreme Council of
India, and helpa-d frame the code of
laws for the government of India.
On Ills return from India he waa
again elected to Parliament. He was
made Lord Rector of lhe University al
Glasgow, and was elected Profesaer of
Modern History, lhe latter position he
declined, as he wished to have the lime
to finish his " History of England.’’
His best poeticil work was ” Lays of
Ancient Rome.'' Among his other
writings were the ' Ivory," and " Mil­
lon, and the unfinished "Armada." He

OLD PAT PASSES AWAY.
POWER OF WATER.
His Lifeless Body Found in
the Road Opposite the
Summit House.
Under Certain Condition» It Is Prac­
tically Irresistible.
Another well known character of Till­
amook County has passed away, but he
will be remembered for a good many
years by those who ha vet raveled over the
mountains from North Yamhill to Tilla­
mook City, for Pat Doughney. who oc­
cupied the Summit House for a number
ol years, always bad a warm house and
a warm heart in welcoming those who
were numbed and cold traveling over
the mountains in winter. Put Pat is no
more. He was suddenly called to his
rest, where he had spent so much of bis
time alone, at the Summit. Poor Pat
was an object of sympathy in some re
spects, for he seems to have had an idea
that liis duty was at the Summit house.
Pat was in town last week and left on
the stage Thursday evening for the Sum­
mit. His health had been breaking up
for several months, being troubled with
his heart and sinking spell, and it was
only a short time ago that George W.
Gravson advised him not to go to the
Summit house for fear that something
might happen him, hut he persisted,
say that he would just as soon die there
as anywhere else. And. sure enough,
lor as the driver of the west bound stage
drove up to the Summit house with the
expectation of hearing Pal’s welcome
voice, there, prostrated in the road, was
the lifeless body of Old Pat. commonly
called by that name.
Mr. Grayson was advised ol the death
while at the Trask house, and he made
arrangements to bring the remains from
the Summit to this city, reaching here on
Tuesday morning, and in the afternoon
ol the same dav the mortal remains of
Old Pat were laid to rest in the Oddfel.
lows cemetery, his relatives and a few
citizens showing their last token of re
pect by covering his resting place with
flowers.
Patrick Doughney was born ill Ireland
in October, 1837, andcaine to the United
States in 1856, and resided in Oregon
for 50 years, in Yamhill and Tillamook
counties. Previous to making his home
at the Summit, he drove stage. He has
two children living, Mrs. Alley, wife of
County Commissioner H. V Aliev, and
Clarence L. Doughney. both of Nehalem
For many years Pat Doughney had
kept the Summit House, w here he died,
a way place on the North Yamhill-
Tillamook toll-road It was the only
human habitation between Sampson’s
Mill, on the Yamhill side, and Trask, on
the Tillamook side, a stretch of 25 miles
of the wildest kind of mountain mail.
Year after yiar Doughney lived them
alone, and for weeks at a time.the only
face he would see was that of the mail
carrier who passed twice a day. In
winter the snow often reached up to
the eaves of the house, and sometimes
the road would be blockaded for sev
era! days or weeks, < even the mail
carrier and his pack horses failing to
get through.
Doughney kept good supplies of pro­
visions on hand fur thèse occasions,
and in his younger days hunted
enough to have venison when he need
ed it.
In Summer the mail company oper.
ated a stage and carried passengers
and many campers bound for the
Tillamook beaches passed over the
toll . road. Wayfareis always found
Doughney a genial host, and in this
way lie became known to hundreds of
people. There is scarcely a traveling
salesman on lhe Pacific Coast who
‘•made’’ Tillamook that did not know
Pat Doughney. Pat was not averse
to taking a bit of the potheen on occa­
sions, and travelers who knew him
generally saw to it tliat he l.ad enough
on hand for an occasional nip.
When Doughney first went to live at
the Summit House he owned a dog.
But the dog aged faster that did Pat,
and Anally (lied. After a time one of
the hermit's waggish friends sent him
a pig for company. The pig got lone­
some and squealed so continually that
Pat couldn't sleep. so he shot the
young porker.
Since lhe railroad will be carrying
passengers to Tillamook before many
months, Pat Doughney s occupation of

Editor's Business Acumen.
A man who admitted that he came
direct from state prison tried to sell
to the city editor of a New York news­
paper a weird and startling story of a
missing will which he declared had
been revealed to him by a fellow con­
vict. He was a burly fellow with a
prognathous Jaw. and he bad lost an
eye In battle. The mere look of him
would frighten a timid citizen Into
tremors. Mr. White, the expert In
criminology, cross examined the man
as follows:
“Why were you In Auburn?"
“Highway” (meaning, of course, high­
way robbery).
“I suppose you were wrongfully con­
victed.”
"Nuh; dey had me right.”
Such engaging candor made Mr.
White feel that the man was truthful,
and he was greatly disappointed when
strict investigation disclosed the fact
that the story of the missing will was
all fictitious. The man was disap­
pointed, too, at the failure of his ro­
mance, but he went away from the
newspaper office In cheerful mood,
with some remark about better luck
next time.
A week later Mr. White was sum­
moned to the reception room of ths
newspaper, and there he found his
friend, the burly highwayman, his
shoulders broader, bls single eye fiercer
than ever. But his visit was quite
friendly, although somewhat tinged
with business. He evidently believed
he could rely on Mr. White's good
faith and business acumen. Fixing
Mr. White with his glittering eye. the
strong armed one plucked him by the
sleeve over to a corner of the room
and there In a loud, hoarse whisper in­
