FIRST BRUSH WITH INDIANS.
Soldiers Outwitted and Lose Band of Captured Ponies.
Butte, Nov. 1.—A special to the Miner from Sheridan, Wyo., says: Reports of the first brush between troops and Utes have reached here by telephone from Birney. A troop of the Tenth Cavalry rounded up and attempted to drive off 50 head of ponies being grazed by the fugitive Indians. The herders sent the alarm to the main hand. As the soldiers were driving the ponies away a band of 100 bucks came riding up, and, circling the troops, succeeded in stampeding the ponies and recovered all but five, which were shot by the soldiers.
The Indians did not fire, but their determined rescue of their ponies indicates their temper. The soldiers felt themselves unable to cope with the force and the shots killing the animals were fired as the herd was being driven away.
The Indians are outwitting the troops now in the field. A troop of the Tenth Cavalry marched all Tuesday night in hope of capturing a small band of Utes on Bitter Creek, arriving there only to find the band had moved. Later a scout reported the Indians 20 miles away. The troops then made a forced march to Powder river.
Soldiers are complaining bitterly against the actions of the Indian scouts, American Horse, Women's Dress and White Cow Bull, employed by the government. The Indians profess not to know the country, but the belief is growing that they are purposely leading the troops in a fruitless search in order to gain time.
Another detachment of the Tenth Cavalry met and turned back a small band of Cheyennes under Chief Two Face. He said they were hunting and they were started toward the reservation. The band of a hundred Crows under Sweet Mouth, which hurriedly left Sheridan Monday night, was also met and turned back by the Tenth Cavalry.
The Indians are making forced marches at night to elude the soldiers, and owing to the poor work or treachery of the scouts, the soldiers are unable to keep track of them.
Railroad men running into Sheridan tonight report having passed a band of a hundred Sioux marching southeast within 50 miles of Sheridan. Neither Indians nor troops have arrived at Blunt.
The settlers are fearful of a Cheyenne uprising if the Utes reach the reservation border near Ashland. Troops from Fort Keogh and Fort Meade are converging on Ashland.
ALCOHOL, MAKING AND USE.
Bulletina Containing Useful Information to Be Issued.
Washington, Nov. 1.—The United States Department of Agriculture has in press and will soon issue two farmers' bulletins, Nos. 268 and 269, relating to industrial alcohol, the former treating of its sources and manufacture and the latter of its uses and statistics. These bulletins have been prepared by Dr. H. W. Wiley, chief of the Bureau of Chemistry, and are designed to meet the popular demand for information in regard to denatured alcohol, relating to which a law was passed by Congress on June 7, 1906. These bulletins define in a proper way what denatured alcohol is, the sources from which it is obtained, the processes and appliances used in its manufacture, the cost of manufacturing, the uses to which it may be applied and the officials of the government charged with the enforcement of the law. The bulletins are illustrated and are for free distribution. Application should be made to members of Congress or to the United States Department of Agriculture.
No Soldiers Need Apply.
Leavenworth, Kan., Nov. 1.—Two soldiers of Company K, Eighteenth Infantry, stationed at Fort Leavenworth, were refused admittance to a skating rink here recently and Captain M. McFarland, commanding the company, who was appealed to by the men, wrote a communication to the Military Secretary of the War Department stating that the proprietor had said that he would admit soldiers only in citizens' clothing.
Captain McFarland referred the letter to Lieutenant-Colonel William Paulding, who indorsed it by stating that "it is very unfortunate and to be deplored that the uniform of the Nation's Army should be held in such lack of esteem by individuals in this community, and it is to be hoped that some means may be found in correction."
Badges to Identify Soldiers.
Washington, Nov. 1—Acting upon the recommendation of Surgeon-General O'Reilly, Acting Secretary Oliver has ordered that hereafter identification tags of aluminum, the size of a silver dollar, stamped with the name, company, regiment or troop of the wearer, be suspended from the neck of each officer and soldier underneath the clothing by a cord or thong. These badges will be issued gratuitously to enlisted men and at cost price to officers. The importance of such badges is shown by thousands of graves of unidentified soldiers.
Mint Buys Silver at 70.71.
Washington, Nov. 1.—The Director of the Mint today purchased 100,000 ounces of silver at 70.71c per fine ounce, for delivery at the Denver mint.
Oregon Solons Seeking Information on Public Matters.
PENDLETON ENTERTAINS THEM
Visit Washington's Jute Mill and Oregon State Normal School
Pendleton, Or., Oct. 30.—Whether Oregon should supplant its stove foundry in the Salem prison with a jute mill was studied today in the Walla Walla jute plant of the Washington state prison by Governor Chamberlain, of Oregon, 33 members of the Oregon legislature, C. W. James, superintendent of the Oregon penitentiary, and others. While the lawmakers have not expressed their opinions on the subject freely, it is evident that many of them do not favor the change.
This is the attitude also of Governor Chamberlain and Superintendent James. They argue that the stove foundry brings to the state a revenue twice as big as a jute mill would do, that a jute mill would launch the state in a business which is in large measure speculative and risky and liable to heavy losses because the raw product from India is manipulated by a trust; that the finished bags would be sold to consumers near the factory, thereby discriminating against others not favored by proximity to the plant; that Oregon's participation in the business would not regulate prices, because it could make only 12 per cent of the bags used, and the Washington plant doubled in size could make only 25 per cent of the bags used in that state; and that the change to a jute mill would entail upon the state an expenditure of perhaps $125,000.
The Oregonians examined the jute mill with keen interest. It was not running, because the day was one of its alternate idle ones, the idleness coming from short jute supply. But several of the 70 looms were put in motion for exhibition. The visitors, headed by Governor Chamberlain, were conducted through the plant by Governor Mead and M. F. Kincaid, the new superintendent.
The chief argument for the jute mill is that manufacture of grain sacks, unlike that of stoves, does not compete with free labor and that it gives farmers sacks cheaper than the market price.
After viewing the Walla Walla plant, the visitors went to Weston to view the Normal School at that place and thence came to Pendleton, where they attended a dinner and smoker tonight, given by the Commercial Association.
At the Weston Normal School the party was greeted by Robert C. French, president of that institution, and was led to the assembly hall of the school where some 240 students were gathered. President French, to show that the institution was not a local high school for Weston, asked the pupils residing in Weston to arise, then those whose homes were beyond the town. The latter number visibly exceeded the former.
President French said afterward that of the 138 pupils in the normal department, only 22 are residents of Weston. In addition are 102 young pupils in the training department, all from Weston, their studies ranging from kindergarten to eighth grade The age of normal pupils ranges from 15 to 27, most of them being 17, 18 and 19. Governor Chamberlain spoke commendingly of the school, saying it would always have a place in his heart. Representative Davey, of Marion, encouraged the friends of the school by declaring that it is one of the indispensable educational institutions of Oregon. Representative Vawter, of Jackson, spoke the same sentiment and jocularly said that Governor Chamberlain's remarks had put him on record and that they would be remembered when he should pass upon the appropriation bill of the Republican legislature. Other speakers were Senator Smith, of Umatilla, and J. H. Raley, of Pendleton. The town of Weston took an afternoon holiday to receive the visitors. At the station, a mile distant from the school, numerous conveyances were waiting their arrival, to convey them up town. The keen interest of Weston in its normal school was evidenced by the appreciation its citizens showed of the visit of the Governor and the Legislators.
At tonight's dinner Governor Chamberlain urged co-operation of Oregon and Washington for improvement of the Columbia river and the protection of salmon. Governor Mead responded that in improvement of that river Washington "ought to co-operate with your state." But he pointed out that Seattle controlled a great part of the legislative power of Washington that it was not so well informed of the needs of the Columbia river as it might be.

THE REASON WHY
Bourne Should Not Be Elected U. S. Senator
The New Age has said before and it now says again that it does not believe that the next legislature will elect J. Bourne, Jr., to the United States senate. It has been said that our opposition to Mr. Bourne is inspired by prejudice, and that we can give no good reason for opposing him since he was regularly named by the republican voters for the office.
We opposed Mr. Bourne during the primaries for the reason that we knew him to be unfit for the high office to which he aspired.
First—That he is not a loyal and consistent republican.
Second—That he is a traitor and political black-leg.
Third—That he could not be depended upon to support Roosevelt.
If he had been a loyal and consistent republican he would not have deserted his party in the hour of its dire distress, when the blight of Bryanism and populism overshadowed the country in 1906. But as a true and loyal republican would have put self aside and rendered whatever service he could for his party and his republican friends. If Bourne's will had prevailed and Bryan had been elected who can say that there would have been today a strong, invincible republican party in Oregon to honor him for his perfidy.
The legislative session of 1895 was the most spectacular in the history of Oregon and the King Pin of that session was J. Bourne Jr., whose malodorous record is even yet a stench in the nostrils of decent people. With a goodly supply of money and other corrupting influences the trick of thwarting the will of the people and debauching the honor of the citizenry was the special mission of this political montebank, who, now, ten short years afterward, has the brazen affrontery to seek this high and honorable position at the hands of the party, whose murder he conspired to bring about.
In the light of the past record of Mr. Bourne, who is so unsuspecting as to trust him in the future? Does anyone who knows him, save his hired henchmen, think for a minute that he can be depended upon to stand up for republican principles and policies in the United States senate, and to uphold the hands of life-long, true and tried republican leaders in that body, and to "stand pat" with the party's matchless leader, mose profound stateman, patriot and humanitarian since the days of Lincoln—Theodore Roosevelt.

WHY BOURNE?
‘Why Bourne? an_ honest legislator
asked himself,
As candidly he mused an hour alone.
Should this high seat be deftly bought
with sordid pelf?
Should people, asking bread, receive
a stone?
Must I, a conscientious, true Republl-
can,
Help foist upon this grand, afflicted
state
‘This spotted, scheming, sellfish, party-
wrecking man
Deserving less its honor than its
hate?
©, yes; I know he had a slight plural-
ity
Of reckless or venal people’s votes,
enough
To pull him through, and so to Ore
gon’s shame to be
The candidate, because he had “the
stuff.”
And foolishly, because a thoughtless
clamor rose,
I like a gudgeon, swallowed State
ment One,
But that can’t bind me when from
such a promise flows
An act my conscience says must not
be done.
Better by far a foolish promise brave-
ly reft,
‘Than by keeping it the people to be-
tray:
Better the unworthy winner by 4
scratch be left
‘Than clarion call of duty disobey.
‘We all do know what Bourne has done
years past, and how,
‘The baleful work, and by what
‘means, he wrought,
His schemes, ‘his crookedness, his
character, and now
"Tis said the seat by him was fairly
bought,
No, now if ever, we should let the
nation know
‘That Oregon’s senate seats are not
for sale;
‘The constitution is our guide, and we
should show
‘That in doing duty we'll not flinch
nor fail.
ANOTHER’S OPINION.
© Jonathan ‘I! git thar; he'll make ft
slick enough;
Fer he's a foxy feller, an’s got the
yeller stuff.
He knowed the proper method the vic-
tory to win,
‘An’ so he scattered freely the chunks
of tempting tin,
In a senatorial race a feller'd travel
‘slow
‘Unless he’s got an’ spends a plenty of
the dough.
‘They say he's been a bolter, an’ cost
‘the people dear,
But didn't he set ém up—an’ better,
too, in beer?
‘They say he’s been a trickster an’
played a crooked game;
But he’s made a lot of fellers jolly all
the same,
‘As a bangup, straight out statesman,
maybe he won't shine
But he'll let ‘em know he’s got a per-
duein’ gold mine.
It’s boodle nowadays, that gets a man
the seat,
An’ Jonathan's up to snuff, an’ sure
‘he can’t be beat.
Politics seems to have a firm grip
‘on the colored people of Chicago, Not
even in a Presidential election has
there been shown a more widespread
interest. This is, of course, due to
the fact that there are three Afro-
Americans on the Republican ticket,
and thelr success will mean that a
liberal share of the state, county and
city patronage will fall into the laps of
the would-be statesmen and party
workers of the race. Much Is at stake

coats, ete, ery out for Republican
success all along the political line.
It is feared by the wise ones that
the frequency of Iynchings and riots
in the South and the consequent pols.
oning of the public mind against the
colored man will not contribute to
the chances of the colored candidates,
who cannot be elected without the
normal Republican white vote. The
colored voters of Chicago feel that
they are in the presence of a great re
sponsibility.
If they bring weakness instead o!
strength to the ticket, the result may
prove fatal to future ambitions,

SOLDIERS AS INFORMERS.
give ‘up the soldiers who were mixed
lup in the Brownsville fracas some
time ago they would all be dishonor-
Jably discharged from the army of the
[United States. The troopers are want:
ed by the civil authorities of Texas.
It may be that the President has a
right in law to issue such an order
through the War Department and to
execute it, in the event that the sol-
diers refused to betray their comrades,
if, indeed, they know who are the
guilty ones, if guilty there are any;
we are not informed on the question
lof law in the case, but we doubt if
‘there is any such law. However this
may be, up to latest accounts, the
soldiers have refused to comply wit!
the order, if they are able to do 50,
which is an open question, and the
troops had not been dishonorably dis-
charged.
‘When President Roosevelt made his
Southern tour some months ago, on
‘two occasions he laid stress upon the
importance of colored people helping
the officers of the law to run down al:
Jeged: criminals of their race; and
now when a case in point has come
junder his authority he seeks to en-
force what should be in every instance
the voluntary act of the individual or
individuals. It may be that the mem-
bers of the troops not concerned in
‘the fracas have no information as to
the identity of their comrades, or
if they have that it came to them in
the usual course of camp gossip.
‘The theory has gained ground of
late, that it is the business of the
whole Afro-American people to turn
Jout in a elven locality and help the
‘officers of the law hunt down alleged
criminals about whom they know noth-
ing and with whose criminal acts they
have no sort of sympathy. This de-
mand upon the colored people that
they should do police duty without
warrant in or of law is not made upon
any other people in the country, and
is engaged in on a large seale by no
other people in the country, except
the Southern white people, who have
by usurpation of the authority and
function of the police and the courts
in most criminal causes brought the
‘entire system of criminal procedure
into contempt throughout all of the
Southern States. This irresponsible
conduct of the citizens, in disregard
and contempt of the police and the
courts, began soon after the War of
‘the Rebellion and culminated in the
overthrow of the regular State gov-
ernments and the establishment of a
series of corrupt and vicious oligar
chies in which a considerable element
of the citizenship has no standing
whatever in the estimation of the po-
lice or in the administration of the
courts, Individuals take criminal mat-
ters into their hands as often as they
please, and the police and the courts
rarely interfere with them. They are
considered to be a police force and
courts all unto themselves,
It is high time that the doctrine be
preached from the housetops that the
police and the courts should be left to
protect the life and property of the
citizen and to hunt down and convict
violators of the law, and that private
letizens should be made to attend tc
their own business. The belief that
the mob is superior to the police and
the courts is gaining ground all over
the country, and will lead to serious
consequences at no distant day if «
Es shall not be put to it. It is tc
be regretted that President Roosevelt
‘hag allowed himself to get drawn int
es matter in such wise as to seem t
encourage the individual citizen to in
) terfere in the work of the police anc

THE NEW AGE, PORTLAND, OREGON
en a a ! 4. J. Gill Co., wholesale and r
Almost at the very hour when at
Atlanta and elsewhere savage Saxons
were committing all sorts of crimes
in the name of white supremacy over
black people, a little 12-year-old cok
ored girl, Hazel Handy, in Chicago,
won @ notable prize against a host of
white competitors. The Chicago Amer
ican has been carrying on a spelling
contest among the school children of
the city. When it came to award the
prizes to the winners, it was diseover-
ed that the first prize belonged to a
little colored girl. The American
promptly awarded her the prize in
the form of a check for $72. The little
prize winner is the daughter of hum-
ble folks, and in a contest where men-
tal brightness counts would scarcely
have been thought of as coming with-
in the range of a contestant.
Perhaps it would not be uninterest-
ing to note another incident of juven-
ile precocity in connection with the
above. In the corridors of the Wen-
dell Phillips High School in Chicago
the other day everyone noticed a llt-
tle colored boy confidently holding in
his little arms some books, the size
and title of which seemed far beyond
his years. He seemed clearly out of
place, and those who first noticed him
thought he had mistaken the high
school for a low-grade school. He,
however, quickly undecetved them by
showing that he had quickly and suc-
cessfully passed all the lower grades
and was, by virtue of successful exam-
inations, passing to his seat among the
high school students. These instances
of mental precocity are not rare. In
hundreds of schools these little stu-
dents of poor and unlettered Afro-
American parents are quietly and in-
creasingly contradicting the false
philosophy of a divinely appointed in
Paice:
Mr. R. W. Thompson, one of the
ablest writers of the race, author of
‘Thompson's Weekly Review, which
appears regularly in “The Freeman,”
has the following to say anent the
‘Supreme Court vacancies:
Since law is so largely a matter of
construction, it is of the highest im-
portance to the people of this country
that the Supreme Court should be
made up of Justicés who can be de-
pended upon to construe the statutes
in harmony with the best interests of
the entire body politic. If the ques-
tion as to what is “good law” is so
largely a matter of individual opinion,
every citizen of the republic is vitally
concerned as to the kind of men whom
the President places in a position to
affirm or reject the legislation design-
ed to relieve the ills that the masses
complain of. Before a justice is named
for our court of last resort, we are
entitled to know, at least in a general
way, what his views are touching th
questions that affect our liberties and
otherwise fix our status in the citi-
zenry of the nation, President Roose-
velt is about to fill the vacancy on the
Supreme bench caused by the retire-
ment of Justice Brown, of Michigan.
It is widely known that Secretary Taft
could have had the place, but it is
pretty generally understood now that
he will not accept the assignment, pre-
Face! to remain in the Cabinet. Ru-
| mors. have been flying up and down
the country to the effect that the Pres-
{haent's choice will be a jurist who
will reflect his oftrepeated declara-
tions that this is a “Nation” with a
capital “N’—a man who will be fa-
vorable to the enlargement of the
powers of the federal government, as
against the traditional sovereignty of
|States’ rights.” ‘This later sentiment
has long dominated the Supreme Court

The Piano business inPortland and the Northwest has been revolutionized within the past few months by the energetic and progressive efforts of the new Piano house of the Reed-French Company. This well known and old established house has been doing business in the large cities of the East for many years, but only recently did they fully appreciate the value of the Northwest as a field worthy to be exploited. Now they are here and the people are getting the benefit of being able to purchase Pianos at manufacturers' cost. You can buy a handsome instrument for $190 on terms so easy that you would never feel it.

After looking into the bottle a few minutes he began singing, "I'm going back, back, back to New Yorkorem. I did it before."
NOT SO SCARED AS HE SEEKS
A smart young drummer was his hired team along a bit of Wyoming road when he owed a rather dignified old gentleman was walking in the direction in he was driving.
"Have a lift?" inquired "o' Simpson" genially.
"Thank you, sir;" and the o' tleman took a seat in the buggy the drummer.
The team happened to be a half-broken broncos—a fact which the drummer enlarged fully as he slackened the lins gave the horses their heads. They were off at a jump, and a buggy swung violently around the old gentleman was all but.
Hello, Kiddo! Are you ready?
'Course you're goin'?'
Going? Going where?'
Is it possible I must now stop getting ready to tell you the big affair, when it's so close that it's almost time to begin to dress? Where've you been for the last decade? Surely you've heard: the breezes ablowing lately haven't you? Honest to goodness; some folks make me——'
Here! Here! What's coming off anyhow? I may be a hankey-pank and a snoozer but don't be waste any more time if it's so close. Don't let what——?
Snoozer? Snoozer, did you say? Well, I should guess yes. As a sleeper you must be in the Rip Van Winkle class, only you need if you have an earl of the Grand Ball on Thanksgiving. You're the first person I have seen that was not going and ready.
The Willamette Club is giving the ball. That's a pretty good bunch at the head of it.
It will certainly be me for the dizzy
duds and the alais phiz on that P. X.
for sure. Look for me. What's the
admission? "Only fifty cents."
"Alright, I'll grab me a bunch of girlarines and use my own judgement."

Radical Laws for France.
Paris, Nov. 2.—The Cabinet has decided to include in its Parliamentary program the purchase of the Western Railway, and a bill providing for the abolition of the death penalty. War Minister Piquart's plan for the reform of courtmartial amounts to their entire suppression, substituting therefor civil procedure in the case of offenses punishable by common law, while disciplinary courts will deal with infractions of discipline. Minister of Public Works Barthoust' project for the revision of the law contemplates the taking over by the state of all mines.

NOT SO SCARED AS HE SEEMED!
A smart young drummer was driving his hired team along a difficult bit of Wyoming road when he overtook a rather dignified old gentleman who was walking in the direction in which he was driving.
"Have a lift?" inquired "our Mr. Simpson" genially.
"Thank you, sir;" and the old gentleman took a seat in the buggy beside the drummer.
The team happened to be a pair of half-broken broncos—a fact upon which the drummer enlarged gleefully as he slackened the lines and gave the horses their heads a trifle. They were off at a jump, and as the buggy swung violently around a curve, the old gentleman was all but thrown out—to the great amusement of the smart young drummer. When this occurred a second time the old gentleman said politely:
"If it is all the same to you, sir, I should be obliged if you would drive a little more slowly."
"Oh, if you are afraid," sneered the young man unpleasantly, "perhaps you had better do the driving."
The old gentleman looked at him for a moment with a look in his eyes which the drummer never forgot.
"Perhaps you are right, sir," he said, with the utmost politeness, as he took the lines. Then he reached for the whip in the whip socket, and, leaning over the dash-board, he lashed first one bronco and then the other.
"Be you fraid, sir?" he demanded, the drummer, but before the terrified drummer could reply he threw both lines out of the buggy, and the runaway horses, with the lines dragging, toore around the curves at a pace at which "our Mr. Simpson" never had ridden
Both men were thrown out and the buggy splintered. The old gentleman, the first to arise from the wreck, stood over the prostrate drummer as he returned to consciousness, and again demanded:
"Are you afraid, sir?"
arrau, sr.
The smart young man learned ultimately that his passenger was Major Wolton, whose reckless courage is a bword throughout Wyoming—Caroline Lockhart in November Lippincott's.
M'Cresery to Be Minister
Mexico City, Oct. 31. was stated here last night that Fenton R. McCreery, who for the past nine years has been secretary of the United States Legation and Embassy here would be appointed United States Minister to Columbia to succeed Minister Barrett, who is to be made United States Minister to Brazil. Lloyd C. Griscom, present United States Ambassador to Brazil, will succeed George von L. Meyer as Ambassador to Russia, who will become Postmaster-General in March 1907. Mr. McCreery said he had no official knowledge of his promotion.

OUR CHICAGO LETTER
Chicago', Oct. 24th, 1906.
Dr. D. H. Williams has gone to Texas on a visit.
Miss Florence Hawkins of Lincoln, Neb., is in the city.
Dr. A. C. Barner has gone to Little Rock, Ark., on a visit.
Mr. James E. French has returned from the state of Kentucky.
There is a great falling off in the attendance of the colored churches in Chicago. Bethel church is very poorly attended.
Chicago has a murder craze among the colored people. Every day and night some colored person is killed by another colored person.
Rev. W. H. Sanders of the St. Mary' A. M. E. church and Rev. Jessie Woods of the St. John's A. M. E. church are doing a splendid work in this city. People have a high regard for them.
Dr. Alexander Lane, the colored candidate for member of the legislature from the first senatorial district of Chicago will be elected by a large majority. Dr. Lane is popular with the people.
Especial session of the United Supreme Council of Scottish Rite Masons will be held in this city next week. The session will be presided over by the Sovereign Grand Commander, John G. Jones, of Chicago.
Mr. Daniel Macon is making some very hot speeches against Oscar DePriest. This man, Oscar DePriest, who is a candidate on the Republican ticket for county commissioner, was placed on the ticket over the objection and protest of all the leading colonies of Chicago and they are going to see to it now, that Mr. DePriest will be defeated by 10,000 votes.
At a meeting held last night by Calumet Club, Mr. Gray offered a series of resolutions which were adopted severely criticizing the conduct of Miss Alberta M. Smith, the Probation Officer of the Juvenile Court and stigmatizing her as wholly unfit for the position. A public meeting will soon be called in this city on the matter where speeches will be made by several prominent persons. It seems that great complaint has been made about what some of the Colored Probation officers have been doing.
It is reported upon good authority that a club will soon be organized for the express purpose of communicating with the people throughout the country to prevent the election of Rev. A. J. Cary of this city and Rev. E. W. Lampton, now of Washington, D. C., to any position at the next general conference, that will be held in 1908. The very thoughts of such men as Rev. A. J. Cary of this city trying to be elected to a position in the general conference and the continuance in office of Rev. E. W. Lampton has raised a storm of indignation in this section of the country and the people will not be satisfied, until both of them are relegated to the rear.
Miss Georgia Wilson who has been confined to her bed for several weeks is slowly recovering.
Of interest to a wide circle of friends is the announcement of the marriage of Miss Barber Watson to Mr. Ham Harris, one of our most popular young gentlemen of our city.
The musical entertainment given by the Household of Ruth was a grand success. After the program was rendered dancing took place until the wee hours of the morning.
Mr. Bradshaw of our city, met with a sad accident while working on his house last Wednesday afternoon. He fell from a two-story house, breaking two ribs. He is now at the Fancapdock hospital. At this writing he is mending slowly.
Mrs. P. A. Tanna entertained at dinner in honor of Mrs. Mitchell of Seattle. Among those present were Mrs. Mitchell, the honored guest, Mrs. E. F. Edson, Mrs. N. Simon, Mrs. P. Lawhorn, Mrs. Estella Gibson, Mrs. Duval, Mrs. L. Clark and Mrs. D. W. Gibson.
Can't Fool Him on Turkey.
Richmond, Va., Nov. 2.—The President, Mrs. Roosevelt and Surgeon-General Rixey, at Pine Knot, got up early this morning and started on a hunt for wild turkeys. The President has never potted a wild turkey and it is his ambition to add one to his record. Some of his neighbors undertook to play a joke on him by turning a floor of domestic turkeys of the mammoth bronze variety into the woods and driving them so that they would fall a prey to the President's gun, but Mr. Roosevelt would have none of the domestic birds.

The Newspaper Habit Assalled.
Prof. F. Peterson of Columbia university has advanced the theory that the habit of daily newspaper reading leads to mental deterioration. He says that the man who habitually scans the newspaper, reading a bit here and there and gathering a disorderly array of unstable impressions, is affecting his brain by wearing out "the faculty of the tissues for permanent registration," and that he is cultivating the art of forgetting. At the same time, Dr. Crichton-Browne, the London physician, dealing with the same subject, says that the newspaper is the antidote to corrosive egotism, and glives the worldwide horizon to the purblind and shortsighted. He adds that if newspapers were suppressed we should have to enlarge our lunatic asylums.
Test of Dunnite Shell.
A torpedo shell loaded with 150 pounds of dunnite was exploded at the Sandy Hook proving grounds in the presence of members of the army board of ordnance and fortification, with the result that a steel caisson representing a section of the underwater body of a modern battleship, was sunk. This test may revolutionize naval construction, as radical changes in the plans of battleships will be necessary to enable them to withstand the force of this new explosive. The torpedo was placed at a depth of 15 feet distance from the caisson. It was 12 inches in diameter and 6 feet in length, so hung that its nose pointed downward at an angle of 45 degrees, to simulate the path of a shell fired from the mouth of a mortar or cannon.
President Urges Religion:
During the bicentennial of Christ church at Oyster Bay President Roosevelt said he could not understand why any American citizen fails to appreciate the essential need of religion for the welfare of his country. He thought that the different creeds were coming closer together all the time.
Chicago's Summer Outing.
The Chicago bureau of charities, in its weekly journal, Co-Operation, reports that 12,323 country outings have been given to the poor of the city's congested district. The transportation lines by rail and boat rendered effective assistance, and country committees aroused local interest by providing temporary homes for the "shut-ins." The total was nearly 4,000 more than last year. The one-week camp outings numbered 1,302, and the one-day outings came to 7,078. Besides this many settlements maintained their own summer camps.

In 1898 the astronomical world was

n asteroid, Eros, whose mean distance
from the sun 1s less than that of the
Planet Mars. Now comes the no less
Interesting and remarkable news that
&n asteroldhas beea found whose mean
Gistance is greater than that of the
Dlanet Jupiter. This body was dlecon
feted at the observatory of Heldelberg
last February, and since then the cal-
culation of its orbit has revealed the
fact that when at apheplion the little
Dianet 1s about 4,000,000 miles outside
tho orbit of Jupiter. The provistonal
designation of the new asteroid Is
"1008 T. G.' This discovery increases
the probability that the minute satel-
Utes recently discovered cireling round
Inpiter are captured asterolds.
More and more the attention of the
military authorities of the great na-
tions {8 concentrated on the means of
adapting the automobile to the trans-
portation of field artillery. A French
writer polnts out that the {dea of a
self-moving carriage for fleld-guns wna
miggested by the engineer Cugnot as
early as 1769. At present, efforts are
irected to the perfection of a form
of automobile sultable to take the place|
of horses in drawing the artillery wag:
ens. Many different forms of iron-<ie|
automobiles carrying light guns, have
already been invented and tested, with
more or less success; but the matn
problem {s to adapt tne automobile to
the transportation of guns mounted,
ns at present, on thelr own carriages,
In other words, it concerns the aboll-
Hon of artillery horses.

Politeness Pays.
Virtue is not to be measured by os-
tentatious giving. There is frequently
more real love for humanity in the
soul of the man who removes the
banana skin from the pavement than
‘n the heart of the donor of the me-
morlal window in the church. Polite-
ness, like all other faults and virtues,
may become habitual. It {is surprising
how many small acts of kindness, how
many little deeds of helpfulness, one
may do in the course of a day when
there are inclination to be kind and a
lookout kept for the opportunity. One
may set out with this intention in the
morning, and the footing up.at night—
not to others, but to one’s own secret
‘conscience—will be cheering and en-
couraging.
Urgent Need of Information.
‘The learned traveler had delivered his
reat lecture on the manners and customs
of old Japan,
“And now,” he said, in conclusion, “
shall be pleased to answer questions per-
tainiug to any peculiarities of this inter-
esting people upon which I may not have
touched in my discourse.”
“Professor,” eagerly asked a young mar
ried woman in the audience, “what do
the Japanese do to plum juice to make it
sel?”

means a good many dollars toa man, ie
the proper care of harness, carriage
tops, etc. Leather in daily use, expos-
ed as it is toeun and wind, soon be-
comes dry, hard, inelastic, and unable
to stand strain, Then, very likely at
the most anfortunate moment, a break
occurs, and precious time and money
are lost. All this is easily prevented
by a little forethought and care on the
part of the owner. Every one owning
horses ehould be supplied with @ good
leather preservative, and a good axle

the largest economical use of a working
outfit, or a pleasure equipage.
Observation has shown that no oil

“Oriented” Orientals,
Knowledge of direction seems to be
instinctive with the Burmans, sows the
author of “A People at School.” ‘They
always reckon by the needle, not by
relative position. ‘They do not say
“Turn to the right,” but “Turn to the
west.” If a table in a room has two
tumblers on It, one of them will *® the
east tumbler, the other the west, and
the table ftself will be not the “table
near the window,” but the “table In the
east of the room.” So they speak of

of a tree, not the shady or sunny side.
Even In rain or mist they know the
direction at once. An English traveler.
walking in the Burman forest on a
foggy morning to find all trace of the
road wiped out by rain and every ap-
parent means of ascertaining diree-
tlon gone, was at a loss what to do,
but his Burman servants knew at
once. “That 1s north,” they said, point.

Ziegler expeditions, and on the last
expedition he was In command, He
tells many exciting stories of his ad-
ventures, and of one occasion when he
nearly lost his life. The conflict of man
with vast masses of Ice Is an unusual
proposition. It 1s a confilct wholly
new to us, and very Interesting. Mr.

The new Kipling book, “Puck of
Pook’s Hill,” Is a collection of imagin.
ary tales written for children but s0
much concerned with historical fact
‘that they will arouse the Interdit as
well as require the Interpretation of
folder readers as well. ‘These stotles,
‘lke others which Kipling bas written
‘of late years for juveniles, were origin.
ally prepared for the entertainment of
his own children, and It 1s sald that the
royalties on the book will go directly
to the youthful readers who have been
{ts first critics. Two Imaginative chil-
dren, Dan and Una, acting “Midsummer
‘Night's Dream,” out of doors In a part
‘of England singularly rich in historical
association, unwittingly call up Puck
himself, who, by bis magic makes them
hear and see the events of ancient days.
“Puck of Pook's Hill" will be published
‘simultaneously in the United States,
‘England, Canada, Australla, and In fact
in all English-speaking colonies, ‘The
book will be Illustrated by Arthur Rack-

No part of Mark Twain's autoblog-

Mr. Clemens says that he has already
written 250,000 words of his autoblog-
raphy, which he began many years ago.
Not nearly all of this will appear seri-
ally. The antoblographer has not been
at pains as to the form and system of
this story of his life. It follows what
he calls a “systemless system.” His
alm, he declares, has been to set down
the things which have interested bim
in bis lifetime. ‘This seems to be a
sensible idea; what Interests the auto-
biographer is likely to be treated of by
him in a more readable way than he
might treat of subjects selected merely
Decause they might interest the reader,
‘Mr. Clemens says he confided bis, plans
to Mr. Howells, who approved of them,
which, as the autoblograpber remarks,
was wise and judicious. “If he had
manifested a different spirit I would
have thrown him out of the window.
I like criticism, but it must be my

bis association with Irving, Stoker had
many Interesting experiences. He has
many amusing stories of Irving. The

modesty and lack of self-consclousness.

LINCOLN’S WEAPON.
How He Employed Ridicule for Mis
Client's Beneat.
Wit and ridicule were Lincoln’ weap-
ons of offense and defense, and he
Probably laughed more jury cases out
of court than any other man who ever
practiced at the bar.
“I once heard Mr. Lincoln defend a
man tn Bloomington against a charge
of passing eounterfelt money,” Vice
President Stevenson told the writer.
“There was a pretty clear case against
the accused, but when the chief witness
for the people took the stand he stated
that his name was J. Parker’ Green,
and Lincoln reverted to this the mo-
anent he rose to cross-examine, ‘Why
J. Parker Greene? What did that J.
stand for? John? Well, why didu't
the witness call himself John P. Green?
That was his name, wasn't It? Well,
what was the reason he didn’t wisn to
be known by his right name? Did J.
Parker Green have anything to conceal,
and if not, why did J. Parker Green
part his name in that way? And s0
on. Of course, the whole examination
was farcical,” Mr. Stevenson continued,
“put there was something irresistibly
funny In the varying tones and inflec-
tlons of Mr. Lincoln’s voice as he rang
the changes upon the man’s name; and
at the recess the very boys in the street
took up the slogan and shouted ‘J. Par-
ker Green!’ all over the town. More-
over, there was something In Lincoln's
way of intoning his questions which
made me suspicious of the witness, and
to this day I have never been able to
rid my mind of the absurd impresston
that there was something not quite
right about J. Parker Green. It was
all nonsense, of course, but the jury
must have been affected as I was, for
Green was discredited and the defend-
ant went free.”
