Eettiing an Estate.

An old lady in Pennsylvania who
died recently was supposed to have had
considerable money, and Immediately
after her demise the heirs began look
ing for the hidden wealth. Laborious
search revealed nothing, and the anxi.
GUS relatives were unable TO understand
its mysterious disappearance, until the
cause was suddenly revealed. II was
found y unmistakable evidence that
the old lady, having been exercised
considerably over the thought that
trouble might eusue in case Of her death
over the money, and with the disgrace
ful quarrcls Of the Vanderbiits and
other dissatisfied heirs before her eyes
deliberately burned it. A more admir-
able method of solving vexatiou'
problem was never invented, and while
it might be distasteful to heirs ant
lawyers, it would bestow on all an in
heritance Of peace. - Orcgonida.

It's curious, isn't it Billy,
The changes that twelve months may

As happy and rich as King,
was raking IN POOLS on the races,
And feeling the walters with Tens,
Aud slipping mint juleps by twilight,
And to-day | am here In the Pen.

Leads men to destruction and crime
The prodigal son, whom you've read of
Has altered somewhat i'll his time.
He spends his substance as freely
AS the biblical fellow of old,
BVt when it is gone he fancies
The husks will turn into gold.
Champagne, a box at the opera
High steps when fortune is flush,
The passionate kisses of woman
Whose cheeks have forgotten to blush.
The old, old story, Billy.
OF pleasures that end IN tears,
The froth that foans for an hour,
The dregs that are tasted for years.
Last night as sat here and pondered,
On the ends of my evil ways,
There arose like phantom before me,
The vision of my boyhood days.
/ thought of my old name, Billy,
OF the school house that stood on the hill,
OF the brock that flowed through the
meadow,

OF the mother who taught me to pray,
Whose love was Il precious treasure,
That | heedIessly cast away.
| saw again in my visions,
The fresh-lipped, careless boy,
To whom the future was boundless,
And the world but mighty toy.
thought of all this as sat here,
OF my ruined and wasted life,
And the panss of remorse were bitter,
| They pierced my heart like a knife.
1t takes some courage, Billy,

When the yearning ambitions Of manhood
Are blasted at twenty

NO ADMISSION.

Recent kilograms from Washington,
together with our regular letter from
the Capitol city, has given much to en-
courage the anti-Admission people and
afforded no cause for exultation among
the aspirants for State honors. If we
do fail to gail admission as State,
and it looks now like cause without
hope, we shall feel that the opposition
from Oregon and the Pacific States
generally was uncalled for and was in
extreme bad taste. While it is true
that our population does not reach
sufficient number to entitle us to one
Congressman they should have remem-
bered that there are but few Of the
| Eastern or Middle States that could
not justly set up like claim against
them, and that tho matter of represen-
tation would soon be equalzed as a
large Increase of population is as much
an assured fact as anything not yet
transpired can be. The number of our
inhabitants has doubled in the last ten
years, the greatest increase being in
the years 70 and so. If our devel-
opment has been so rapid when every
industry and commercial enterprise
was in its infancy what can we not ex.
pect when two lines Of Transcontinent
al railways, together with net work
Of feeders already projected are com
pleted and ready to carry away cheaply

How much that one word Mother i'm
plies. To US who have known a dear
mother does it not mean almost immeas-
urable love. patience. self-sacrifice, watch
fulness-in short, all that is good and no

From earliest infancy through life Gf

to perceive the good qualities and prone
to discover the evil traits in our natures.
Watch the infant in his mothers arms.
The mother smiles upon him and his mar
row bound of happiness is complete. The
child learning to walk needs but the en-
couraging word, the tender glance of her
eye, the gentle support of mothers hands
and he has taken successfully the first
steps in new world to him.
The lad who attends yonder school
brings all his little troubles home to moth
er. Father is usually .'too busy" and
doesn't "care whether the examination is
to be in cube root or sweet flag root. :"
But should the teacher happen to call
Johnny or Tommy .'stupid boy" then
father would be willing to start with a
stout cowhide at once for that teachers
room. Study the maiden just budding
into womanhoOd. Is not mother her wise
counsellor. her careful guardian-the true
sentinel that would shield her darling
from every evil. if possible? If the youth
could only realize all this in their youth |!
