Aumurous Repartmeut.
A FUNNY STORY OF THE WAR.

W, good boy, who became first class
soldier, enlisted when quite young, Ill the be-
ginning of the late war. Almost his first
night in camp he was put on guard, near New
York. The officer of the guard had way of
hesitatingly interjecting the sound ''uh'' in
to his sentences. In the course of the even
ing new detail was required. When the Ad-
jutant went to company E to make the de-
tail he could find no nOn-commlSSlonedo officers
there, so he went to company {. None were
there. Much puzzled at the circumstance, as
all of the privates were present, he went to
the other companies, but the same state OF
things existed. All the sergeants and corpo-
rails had somehow strangely disappeared. Not
one was in camp. They must in some mystic
rious way have passed the guard against Or
ders and gone to town on good time. The
Adjutant reported the unusual occurrence to
the officer of the day, who called on the officer
of the guard for explanation, without result.
So all three of these officers, joined by the Col
Onel, made the rounds Of the sentries, question
ing each as to what he might know about 1t.
Ali were entirely ignorant of the facts until
they reached W, who was innocently and
unconcernedly pacing his beat. The Colonel
gruffy demanded
''Have you let any ynon-commissloned officers
pass out 20 -,
eyes, sir,'' promptly answered W, "all
of 'um. They've gone to town."
'sWhat right had you 20 let them pass out -
thundered the now furious Colonel.
sits my orders to let non-commissloned
officers go,' replied honest W:
'sNo such orders were given. What DO you
mean"
''There was, sir, to me. The officer of the
guard give 'em, SIR"
sI-never," denied the officer of the guard:
IL gave you orders to let-uh' commissioned
officers pass out freely let no others pass, .
what orders you give me, zackly-andI have,
and hain't let no tothers 60 out at all. Sew
er,lcapens have tried to 60 out, an wouldn't
let 'em, cos they warn't uncommissioncd OFF,
GERS, like sergeants and corprils is"
The idea was so ludicrOus that W--Was
not even reprimanded, and he made good,
brave record in the war.-Detrot Free Press.

The much abused goat is coming to be
priced as a useful animal by English far
mers. They have been long time dis
covering. what has been an established
fact on the continent of Europe, that the
whiskered and frisky animal is an impor-
tant factor in pastoral wealth. In other
European countries il has been demon
strated that the goat will, if properly
managed, yield milk. butter and cheese
which possess peculiar virtues of their
own, and afterward provide excellent
food for the table, as well as gloves and
boots which cannot be matched for deli
cacv and strength. As a result of the new
light on this subject, a goat farm of 2l0
acres has been established on land of the
Earl of Lovelace in Surrey. where goats
milk. butter. cheese and leather will be
produced. Our American and especially
our New England farmers might take Il
hint from this information. The hilly
farms OF New England would afford tine
home for these active creatures.
Oranges should be very careful how

ure of the Patrons store at La Grange for
the sum of $S, 900 ought to teach other
oranges lesson in relation to this mat
ter. 1t is undeniablv great temptation
to put in large stock of goods and build
hall and store. running in debt for the
same. But the business affairs of grange
ought to he treated the same as those of
an individual. Where a large amount of
money is hired, the bill for interest is SD
heavy that it often partially and even en-
tirely counterbalances the profits of the
store. Necessarily if interest is paid on
its capital. by grange, so much higher
prices must be charged for goods at the
store that they will be but very little, if
any, different from those of stores outside
OF the grange. This works injury to the
store, for experience has shown that men,
bers of a grange will exert themselves
but very little to patronize their own store
provided they can buy as cheaply else
where. Besides, if there is no difference
between grange and outside prices, many
do not join the grange who would other
wise become members

Somebody's child is dyin9-dying with the
flush of hope on his young face, and some
body's mother thinking of the time when that
dear face will be hidden where no ray of hope

for consumption. Reader, if the child be your
neighbor's, take this comforting word to the
mothers heart before it is too late. Tell her
that consumption is durable; that men are
living to-day whom the physicians pronounced
incurable. because one lung had been almost

In favor of farming it may be truly said
that greater proportion of those who
begin by working on farm rise to COM
petence and moderate wealth than in any
other persuit. Farm wages may be low
but they usually include board. while the
temptations to dissipation in the rural dis
tricts are much less than in cities.

ANNEXATION.

and assert that it will be ruinous to the
annexation scheme. The southern
portion of the territory will never aid

If North Idaho is ever annexed to our
territory it will be done by a power
outside Of Idaho. All the people Of
North Idaho intend to do, is TO show
to congress by united voice that they
are anxious to he made part of Wash
ington, and also to show to congress
that they now, and forever cease to

ANNEXATION MOVEMENT

Tie convention which assembled in
Shields hall last Saturday to discuss
and act upon the annexation matter
was in every sense success 1t was
strong in numbers, strong in good
hard sense and strong in purpose.
Following is the sentiment expressed
10y the meeting:
1t is proposed to meet the annexa
ton question fairly and fully. BY
nominating man oek on that issue
and voting tor him soidly, the people
of the four counties make record
that cannot be wiped out, and that will
materially aid Mr. Breuis in the work
he has so wei begun A solid vote in
favor of annexation gives congress in.
disputable proof OF the wishes of the
people, and those wi.hes will undoubt-
eddy be respected, The measure is 50
just and equitable, So plainly needed,
nay, demanded, that if the people will
speak this fall loud enough for con
gress to hear, that body will certainly
heed
1t is the only way to assist 10 the
work. Voting for the other candi-
dates Is voting against annexation,
since it is known that one will fight
against it and fight hard while the
other has net announced himself in
favor Of it. Those who are not for the
movement are against it. This is a
general fact and an indisputable fact
in any matter whatever, be it political,
social or religious.
The district convention will meet
next Wednesday to place in nomina
ton a candidate for congress. II this
candidate receive the solid vote of the
north, and then any person states to a
congressional committee that the peo-
pie are not unanimous in their desire
for annexation, the returns will give
the lie to the assertion Aud this
vote must be unanimous for il the
annexation candidate is placed in the
field, and tails of u practically lid
vote, woe DO to the hopes of North
Idaho. However, no such result is
contemplated Having once started
cut in this contest, the people will
make determined fight, and success
is theirs. Nothing was ever accom-
plished in this world by waiting and
wishing SO let every man be up and
doing.
Such were the sentiments Of last
Saturdays convention. - Mirror.

ADMISSION NEXT SESSION.

The Washington correspondent of
the Walla Walla Union writing under
date of Sept Gath says:
Your correspondent has conversed
with some of the Committee on Terri
tories, of the Senate, since the adjourn
ment, and they give him hattering as
surances of the passage If the bill for
your admission on or before the 4th
OF March next.
1t is all nonsense to say to the con-
trary, and if North Idaho is ever ad.
mitted it must go in with Washington.
The Delegate elect from Idaho, whom.
soever he may be, will never haze the
privilege Of acting in an official capac-
ity ut Washington to secure the admis,
sion. Hence tho Importance # the
people Of the North voting solid on
our annexation man, who is an open
and avowed exationist, and let sMr
Brcuts use the record of that vote
against Mr., Ainslie's charge that the
North are divided upon the question,
because many have before voted for him
without his avowed declaration that he
was opposed to annexation.
