The Oregon Way.

A certain young man in Oregon fell in
love with a beautiful young lady resid-
ing near Port Townsend. His passion
being promptly r~eciprocated, marriage
was soon proposed but the young lady's
parents would have none Of this. The
father and a belligerent uncle threat
ened to do the young Romeo serious per-
sonal injury in case his attentions to his
fiancee were continued, and forbade him
ever again entering the premises. The
young lady is represented as having
been bitterly prosecuted on occount OF
her refusal to discountenance the dis
carded suitor. The young man becom-
ing aware of this fact, determined at
c to consumate the nuptials. Ac-
cordingly, procuring a license and the
services of the necessarily constituted
authority, and withal a good Winches-
ter rife, he repaired at once to the abode
Of the young woman's parents. En-
counterlng the father and the irate
uncle in the yard, he bade them "hands
off" declaring that they had threatened
to do him personal injury and that in
the ewes of the law he would be justified
in doing serious execution with his rife
in cas- they attempted to execute them.
and right there, before the gaze of the
two astonished belligerents, with n eye
fixed on them, the other on the fair ont
by his side, and with enc hand clutchins
his rife and the other grasping that o
his affanced, the nuptial knot was tied
when the happy couple departed

A Child's Battle with an Eagle.
Duluth fMinn.l Eacle.1

G. Wieland, Auditor of Lake County,
Mimi, writes: yesterday afternoon,
while little August Burr, aged seven
years, was playing with his sisters-one
five years old and the other three and one
half-near his fathers house, an enor-
nous eagle pounced dowa upon them,
throwing the two girls to the ground
It Immediately attacked the younger
one, grasping enc of the child's arms
with the claws of one foot, while the
claws Of the other foot were deeply
buried in the child's face; and it at
tempted to carry the child off, but was
prevented by her struggles. Little
August, seeing chat he could do nothing
with his own hands to help his sister,
ran quickly to the house, got the
butcher-knife, came out and hacked
away at the eagles legs, cutting n OF
them severely "a the foot, w%hereupon
the savage bird let go the little girl, and
attacked the boy, knocking him over.
tearing his pantaloons, and giving him
some severe scratches. In the mean
time the screams of the children brought
out their mother, whereupon the eagle
flew off to the barn, on which he sat anc

ATTEMPTED Suicide Of q Modern Juliet

Bellefontaine, Ohio, some time since,
furnished q case of a genuine iove-lorn
maiden-a schoolgirl Of 10 years,
who fell desperately in love with a youth,
of about the same age. They quarteled
over a matter, but did not Kiss and
make up after the customary manner OF
lovers. When they met the next morn
ing the boy declined to meet the friendly
| advances Of the young lady halfway,
| but sullenly refused to speak to her at
| all. A short time after she wrote him
a note, saving that unless he forgave her
| she would kill herself. The youth, it
appears, had retired from the Romeo
business entirely, and replied by simply,
telling her to go on with her killing and
he would pay the funeral expenses,
whereupon she commenced by swallow
ing the contents of her ink bottle, which
made her very sick. She then tried
red ink with no better result. The next
move was to procure a rope and repair
to an outbuildiDg for the purpose Of
hanging herself, but some schoolmatei
discovered her and thWarted her de
signs. She then went home and tried t.
cut her throat with a pocket-knife, ane
actually succeeded in cutting quite
cash in her neck. The youth has no
relented. The names Of both partie

A Sian fhat Was Paid for.

Rude fun ought to cost the maker
semething-and it generally does. In
this case the offender gets off easier than
he had any right to expect, after his In
excusable assault. Says the Cape Ann
Advertiser:
Not many months ago a party. OF Dos,
ton gentlemen came to this city ana
went on a fishing party. Some OF them
got pretty jolly, one in particular, VINO,
Selling one of the Goldfish which they
had caught, walked up the wharf. he
soon espied a veteran fisherman, who
was saving wood, and under the impulse
of the moment fetched him a whack
across the face, with the Goldfish:
In a moment he was sobered. The
generous impulse of noble heart throb.
bed in his bosom. He felt that he had
done a mean, ungentlemanly act, and
he meant to atone for it then and
there.
Taking out a ten-dolIar bill, he prof
fered it to the veteran, saying:
"Accept this and let it wipe out any
| recollections of the cowardly blow ]
struck you, as I did not mean to do il
and am very sorry for it"
The veteran took the bill, his face
beaming with mingled establishment and
delight, and making q bow, remarked
"See here, stranger, you can wipe
me oyer the face all day long with
Goldfish, at ten dollars q lick! l dom,

rather like your style. When are you
coming again.
And that settled it. 1t was lucky TO
the gay Joker that his victim was o
thick material enough to take none!

This Thing is Often Done.

Almost every farming community
knows of an instance parallel to the fol-
lowing from the New York Tribune:
The true story is told of a well-to-do
New Hampshire farmer who last spring
gave his ffteen-year-old son q mother
less lamb; Johnnie brought it up care-
fully, and the past fall the father sold it
with others and put the money in his
own pocket, an act which the Man
chester Mirror Indignantly characterizes
as "The meanest robbery that could be
perpetrated:s' twill not be strange il
that youth speedily develops an irresisti
BILE longing for town life, or the Western
country, and the old man will murmul

The Future Center OF Commerce and
Culture.

Culture.
AS Mr.. Gladstone has thought that
the commercial center OF the world may
shift from London to New York. so NJ.
Littre, the famous French lexicog-
rapher, thinks that the center of cul.
ture will move from the Seine to the
banks of the Hudson. This gentleman
is Of opinion that the ruling language of
the future will be Anglo-Saxon, and its
chief seat of learning will be in the
United States. As regards population,
that race comes first; its numbers in a
generation or two will probably reach
400, 600, 900 of the human race. After
then comes the Chinese, equal in mum.
Der, but, as q static people, unworthy to
rank with Western races as a factor in
the worlds development. After the
Anglo-5axon, as governing races, Nj
Ettre puts the Russian, and then the
Spanish, to whom he comedies in the fu,
ture the greatest part of the South
American continent. The capacity fol
expansion of the United States anc
Russia may possibly menace the indie
pendence Of old European states; but
in this respect, M. Littre argues thai
the security of human life individually
which has followed in the wake of civil
ization, will also be accorded to thu
| States, and that Russia and America
unlike the ancient Babylon and Egypt
will develop without injury to the ma
| tions upon whose frontiers they may

for a hundred yards, when my house came
in contact with another fisherman's house.
This called a sudden halt, and | took adj
vantage of it to crawl hastily out. The
collision loosened the grapples on the
other house, and in a moment both were
flying along over the ice in all parts of
the inlet. The gale lasted for not more
than 10 minutes. but whole smelt-fshing
village had been moved about a mile
from its site when it ended. That little
episode convinced me that it would be
more pleasant for me to leave smelt-fish-
ing until next May or June, and then re-
sumo it on convenient trout stream; so
struck my tent and cut sticks for Bel
fast.
Il believe smelt.fshing is becoming
more popular every year, and even the
ladies are manifesting willingness to
brave its risks and, sometimes, its hard
ships. There was party of three ladies
and gentlemen from Boston camped on
the Ice when | came away"
