I could tell you of something that you
might think romance. A young man
graduated from New Brunswick theo-
logical seminary was called to village
church. He had not the means to furn-
ish the parsonage. After three or four
weeks of preaching a committee of the
officers of the church waited on him and
told him he locked tired and thought he
had better take vacation of few days
The young pastor took it as an intima-
ticn that his work was done or not ac-
eeptable. He took the vacation and at
the end of few days came hack, when
an old elder said /: "Here is the key Of
the parsonage. We have been cleaning
it mp. You had better 60 up and lock
at it." So the young pastor took the
key, went up to the parsonage, opened
the door, and 10 it was carpeted, and
there was the hat-rack all ready for the
canes and the umbrellas and the ever
coats, and on the left hand of the hall
was the parlor, sofaed, ehairei, pictured.
He passed on to the other side of the
hall, and there was the study, table in
the centre Of the floor with stationary
upon it, book-shelves built, long ranges
of new volumes far beyond the reach
of the means of the young pastor, many
of these volumes. The young pastor
went upstairs, and found all the sleep
ing apartments furnished came down
stairs and entered the pantry, and there
were spices, and the eoffees, and the
sugars, and the groceries for six months.
He went down into the cellar, and there
was the coal for all the coming Winter
He went into the dining hall, and there
was the table already set-the glass and
the silverware. He went into the
kitchen, and there were all the culinary
implements and great stove. Tke
young pastor lifted one lid ofihe stove
and he found the fuel all ready for igni-
tion. Putting back the cever Of the
stove, he saw in another part of it lu-
cifsr match, and all that young man Lad
to do in starting to keep house was to
strike the match. You tell me that il
apocryphal. Oh, no that was I. On

HISTORICAL.

The British emancipation act took
place in 1888.
The five good emperors OF Rome
were Nerva, TrajaH, Hadrian and the
two Antonines.
The hexameter verse was first intro
duced into the Latin language at the
close OF the second Punic war, by the
soldier and poet Ennius.
The Burmans asserts that before the
advent of Buddha they had 334. 500
kings. They say also that nearly every
one OF these monarchs was parricids.
There were four races in Italy in
early times the Pelassians, the Ital-
ians. the Etruseans and the Greeks.
The first came from the west, the sec
Und and third from the north.
Recent excavations make it seem
probable that what is called the Babel
mound at Babylon is really the remains
OF the hanging gardens of Nebuchad-
nezzar. Hydraulic works and reser-
voirs Of great size have been discover
ed there, and also aqueducts leading to
the Euphrates.
The doctrines of the Cabbala sprang
up in the Alexandrine school. The
Jews carried certain mystic doctrines
to Egypt and these combined with the
Peripatetic teachings and the idealisn
of the Egyptian produced a great mass
Of allegorical and fauciful comment or
the Books and Moses.
Originally, the Aryan nations lived
in the highlands Of Central Asia east o
the Caspian Sea and north of the Hin
du Kush Mountains. The climate o
this country was then much NOR
agreeable than it is now and the sol
was more fertile. The dispersal Q
these tribes probably took place abou
5000 B. G.
The Persians used sculpture princ
pally upon the buttresses of the step
placed before palaces. Professions
men from different countries bringin
tribute to the monarch were the favcr
tie decoration, or else files of guard
Sometimes groups of animals wer
used upon the triangular space at ii
end terrace stairs.

JUDGE Lynch.


We wish we were about 70 write bis
obituary, as far as the Northwest is
concerned, but are aware of the fact
that the old Judge is good for q great
many years yet. His vigorous condi-
ton has been demonstrated by b:s ca
prices at Prineville, and even at Eugene
last week he came very near having his
own way. Il does seem, though, some
times that he Is the only enc who pun.
ishes for murder. In nearly every case
the assassin goes scot free on account of
some technicaIity or fictitious plea. The
plea Of insanity or self defense is hatch
ed up, and il is an easy thing to get any
kind Of evidence when life is at stake.
The result is that the cases are rare
where the murderer gsts the full bene-
it Of the !aw. Hencs IL is that . GER
tain class Of warm bloodsd people, living
in community where the Law is as slow
as boy on an errAnd, take it into their
own hands and Juniper trees testify TO
the expedition Of their trials. This does
not make it right any ths more. You
cOnnot make right out Of wrgng any
more than you can make cucumber
pickle cut of pumpkin, at the same
time one cannot help seeing that the
Judge comes q long ways from being To-
tally dePraved. Even If lynchiDg saves
the cOuntr, big expense, and gives a
man his just dues before sympathy is
produced by delay, il is no rs ,son why
lyRching should be resorted to. Moth
ing can take away the fact that the law
should be supreme. Without It coun-
try is mere cannibal island. It Is
what keeps together Nation, it builds
up State, and establishes civilization.
Without it you have a country Of COW
boys, homeless, uncouth, lacking the re-
6ning influences which order and sys-
ten produce anywhere. The more adj
vanced a.POopls lecomes the less ron will
see Of this hot headed fellew, called
Judge Lynch. Even if justice wsIe
only TO be obtained at his hands, he is
not reliable at .he business. He is
more apt to hang for horse stealing than
for murder, and is not sure Of getting
the right party anyway. He will act
on suspicion If exasPerated, aud bAS
punished the innocent as we'll as the
guilty. He Is most unreliable anyway
and it is very foolish for any people to
place much confidence in him. Even If
the law is slow and sometimes fails TO
DO its duty, the only way is to follow it.
There is no one however, bad or posr
who is not entitled TO its protection, and
even if the rascal sometimes gets clear,
perhaps oftener be is punished fer his
crimes and as well the innocent charged
with wrong Is proven stainless.
