say, . crime against free govern

For the rest, Mr.. Hayes, pledging
himself constantly to civil service
reform, appointed more personal
friends and fayorites to office than
perhaps any Of his predecessors.
And as he violated his pledges to
his party, 80 he violated every

reference To a general disposition
among boys IN their teens, as well rs
boys Of maturer years, To enlighten
and bless the world with their pro-
found knowledge Of the horse and his
history. Our books and newspapers
are full of this kind Of literature, and
IL varies in style from the production
Of the child At school. commencing
with The horse has four legs and a
tail; up to the eloquent tribute Of the
schslar when he quotes from job: That
his neck is clothed with thunder and
the glory Of his nostrils Is terrible.
He smelleth the battle afar of, the
thunder Of the captains and the
shouting Between these two ex-
tremes uf the child at his first school
composition, and the professional
literature, We have every grade Of pre-
tentlon, and each protesting Ia have
mastered the whole subject. As we
approach the close Of this nineteenth

Mr. Curtis Galloway informed a
reporter of The Dalles Nountaineer
of strange freak Of nature which
took place near Three-mile creek,
about eight and half miles from that
city. Recently a spot of ground
which had before been apparently as
compact as that which surrounded it
was suddenly torn up as if by an
earthquake, and rocks and earth were
scattered in every direction, leaving
an immense hole which immediately
filled with water The performance
was probably caused by the action of
the atmosphere on some subterranean
body of water and as il has furnished
a cumparatiI ely dry section with an
abundance of that useful LIQUID. it is
quite an accommodation freak of
Dame Nature as well furnishing an
advantage to offer to prospective immi-
grants.
