The royal family of England is in a
bad way. The Queen has gone crazy
over the death of q Scotch servant;
the Prince of Wales, head over heels
in debt, has gone to flirting with Lii
Ian Russell; the wedding outfit of the
Duchess of Edinburgh is in Tire pawn
shop, and Prince Teck's property has
been siezed and sold by the sheriff.

A newspaper paragraph says that
"Pauperism IL on the decline in Eng
land. In 1881 the expenditure for the
reliefo Of the poor was E70O, ono less than
in 1871; and the number Of paupers had
fallen from 46 per 1000 of population
tn 3d." All this Is easily accounted for
in the fact that England sends her
paupers by the shipload to America,
expecting Canada and the United
States to take care of them. England
could reduce the number still more by
quitting the making OF psupers in Ire
land.

Tom Hollingsworth, Dave Backman and
Indian Joe, while out on hunt over on the
Kalama river, recently came into a band Of
81 elk. The hunters managed to kill two
very nice ones, but the presumption is that
Tom got badly scared, or there would have
been more elk meat on Lewis river by this
time.
The steamers have ceased their trips to
Woodland, and La Center is an inland town
as well, on account of few snags and bars
in the bed of the stream. An expenditure
of few thousand dollars on the part of
Uncle Sam would remedy all this, and give
us steamer transportation the year round.
The farmers of this vicinity are now bus

will be fair average yield, notwithstanding
the dry season. X.
