Railroad Memorial.

To restore to the pdblic domain GER
tam unearned lands Withdrawn in
favor of the Oregon Central railroad
company.
To the honorable senate and house
Of representatives Of the United States:
Your memorialists, the legislative as
sembly of the state Of Oregon, would
represent. that about the first day of
May, 1870, your honorable bodies
passed an act granting to the Oregon
Central railroad company, of Oregon,
certain lands to aid in the construction
of a railroad and telegraph line from
Portland TO Astoria, with a branch
from suitable point of junction near
Forest Grove to McMinnvIlle, Oregon,
which said grant was approved May 4,
1870. Said grant was on the express
ed condition that said railroad and
telegraph line should be completed in
six years from said date; That said
limit expired more than four years
ago; That no part of said railroad or
telegraph line has been constructed
except from Portland to Forest Grove
and from there to McMiRnville; That
no part Of the road or telegraph line
between Forest Grove and Astoria, a
distance Of seyenty-6Ve miles, has
been built Ut Is now in process of
construction; That the alternate sec
tisns Of land not otherwise appro-
priated prior to May, 1870, and
lying along said route frem For
est Grove to Astoria, and extend
ing in breadth from the Columbia
river ts the Pacific ocean, was, in the
said year of 1870, Withdrawn and seq
regated from market and settlement;
and is now so withdrawn and out Of
reach Of both settler and purchaser to
the great detriment and injury Of that
portion Of the country, of the state of
Oregon at large. Wherefore, your
menorialists pray that all the said
lands withdrawn IN favor Of said Ore
gon Central railroad company but
which have not been earned, be re-
stored to the public domain and thrown
open to settlement under the home
stead, pre-emptiOn and general land
laws of the United States, and, as in
duty bound, we shall ever pray.

Israers Prayer for the President.

In the service at New York syna-
gogue, the Rabbi prayed: Almighty
Father, who art the everlasting God, the
creator of all things, in Thy infinite
goodness Thou hast allowed us to as
semble for worship without fear of man,
knowing that we live among nation
that loves liberty, that rejoices in being
an asylum for the prosecuted and a
home for the oppressed of the world.
But how could we appreciate these ad-
vartages without feeling the deep sor-
row that Is now pressing down on the
nation because its head has been strick-
en- down by the foul hand of the assas-
sin How could We come to this place
without offering prayer for the Presi-
dent Of the United States, for his sor-
rowing wife and children, for his aged
mother, whose heart has been and Is
trembling between hope and fear On,
grant an attentive ear to the prayer of
The nation Give the President re-
newed strength and health. Give light

asserted that she was the author Of an
effective plan adopted in 1851 by the com

on the war in the Mississippi valley The
original plan provided for opening the
Mississippi river by descending it with a
fleet Of gun-boats, and that the plan was

thence southwark. the new base being in

The long surf whitens up the bay,

And tremulous the rIpples sway,
Sway 10 and fro, and fash and curl
They whisper softly to her feet
Who fingers lonely on the sand.
Still looking Seaward. with her sweet
Dark eyes o'erShadowed by her hand
Her loeSened hair Is backward blown
And brightens in the MONDAY light;
And the fresh landward breeze has thrown
Soft color on her cheeks cold white
Is il 10 watch the Sea-biri shoot
On sunny wings along the foam
She fingers with reluctant foot
All lonely from her cottage home
Is il to watch the waters fret
And toss their snowy spume- flakes FREE,
Her tender long-laShed eyes are set
So often TO the windy sea-
Is il to mark the mellow hue
Where the deep heavens and ocean meet
The golden melting in the blue
So softly, that she stays her feet
There is bark with snowy sail.
And pennon tiuttering in the wind
Bright foam about her bows 4 trail
OF broken waters far behind:
She leans before the breeze, she flies
Bird-like with pinions widely set -
And now in seaward-looking eyes
Heart-wearv shades no longer fret
Sail on fair bark amid the spray.
Sail on, and safely Shoreward run;
Break on. soft ripples, up the bay:
And know sweet maid, thy vigil DONE

Mr.. GriilIn's Smart Dog.

There is dog, says the Omaha Bee.
on the corner Of Bancroft street and
Willow avenue, Council Bluffs, which
recently displayed such marked de-
tective ingenuity as TO certainly merit
notice, if not a star. This sagacious
animal belongs to NJ. o. Griffin. 1t
seems that Mr.. Griffin was awakened
in the night recently by the barking Of
his dog in the yard. He got up, took
his revolver, and went down there.
Not seeing or hearing anybody, Mr..
Griffin repaired to his room and re-
tired. But still Leo kept up his growl-
ing and barking something louder than
before. Mr.. Griffin again arose, went
down stairs, and stepped out into the
yard with revolver in hand. The dog
approached him, licked his hand, and
then ran and leaped over the fence.
The dog apparently meant his master
to follow him. This Mr.. Griffin did.
He followed the dog 10 the cellar-door
Of his store, and found that an entrance
had been effected by breaking the hasp
off the same. Mr. Griffin entered the
cellar, and, Notwithstanding he missed
nothing, he knew some one had been
in the cellar and had tried TO get into
the store above. At this Leo was sat
isfed, and ceased barking for the night.
The next morning Mr.. Griffin's atten-
ton was called TO loud barking by Leo.
He stepped to the front of his store.
The dog had stopped man on the
sidewalk and would not allow him TO
pass. The gentleman-atlarge told Mr..
Griffin that ifhe didn't take care of his
dog he would shoot him. At this
juncture Mr. Griffin invited him inside
and there took the liberty of accusing
him of breaking into his store the
night before. The man said he was
insulted by such base insinuations. and
started for the door, when Leo followed
him ost and kept up his barking Dir.
Griffin was so sure that he was not mis-
taken that he reported the case TO the
police headquarters. The man was
arrested and taken before Squire
Burke, where he confessed that the dog
had found him out, and that he had
tried to break into the store, but Leo
had kept him from accomplishing his
purpose. He remarked that he would
leave Council Bluffs Immediately and
go over 70 Omaha, where he did not be-
lieve that dogs could be 50 highly edu-
Gated.

mo doubt has been mystery to
many how the iron balls inside of
sleigh-hells got there, and il Is said is
have taken considerable thought on the
part OF the discoverer before the idea
struck him. In making sleigh-belis the
iron ball is put inside Of sand core
Just the shape Of the iaside ofthe bell.
Then mold IS made just the shape ot
the outside of the bell This sand core,
with the jingle inside, is placed in the
mold Of the outside, and the melted
metal poured in, which fills up the
space between the core and the mold.
The hot metal burns the core so that it
can be all shaken out, leaving the ball
within the shell. Ball valves, swivel
joints and many other articles are cas-
IN the same manner.
