would strike thtm az Adrian, Mich, and
when next i saw him he had huge bun
dies of bills ready for shipment to Adrian.

Who is this hard-working man? This is
the millionaire, the man who wanted to be
rich, and has got rich, and Is getting richer
every day. Is he the happier for 1t? Happy!
Bless your soul, he's more miserable, fuller
of cares and anxieties, and harder worked
than ever. He is the veriest slave of them
all. He is pushed with business, and bust.
ness is pushing him. He has so many irons
In the fire that some of them are burning bis

present life Is a rush from the meeting of
this board to that board, and thence to some
other board. He is director in this company,
and trustee in that, and silent partner In an
other, world without end, and more coming.
He hasn't time TO eat and hardly to sleep,
and when he does lay his poor head on the
pillow he cannot stop business plans and
schemes, hopes and fears from whirling and
whirring through it. He can't take day to
spend in quiet out of town, aud IL he could
he would take all his business with him into
the woods. He is a slave and victim. His
millions in bank don't bring him so much
enjoyment as does a new ten-cent piece
given to boy ten years old. He Is infected
with the mania for getting, and the more he
gets the more he wants. If you could see
him just as he Is, and where he is ineyita-

To the Editor Of tie Oregoniaa

To The Editor Of the Oregonian
Will you please give the derivation and
the meaning of the word "Oret son," and
oblige MANY NEW CoMERs
On the 18th Of September, 1863, the late
Archbishop Blanchet contributed the follow
ing interesting paper TO The Oregonian,
which fully answers the question. 1t will
be observed that the Archbishop speaks of
himself in the third person
Jonathan Carver, All English captain In
the wars by which Canada came into the
possession of Great Britain, after the peace,
left Boston June o, 1896 crossed the conti-
npnt TO the Pacific and returned in October,
176s. In relation to his travels, which were
published in lTI4 and republished in ITS,
he is the first who makes use of the word
Oregon. The origin of that word has never
been discovered in the country. The first
Catholic missionaries, Father Demers, now
Bishop Of Vancouver Island, snd Father
Blanchet, now Bishop of Oregon City, ar
rived in Oregon in 1888. They travelled
through It for many years, from south to
north, from west To east, visiting and teach
Ing the numerous tribes of Oregon, WASH
ington Territory aud British possessions.
But in all their various excursions among
the Indians, they never succee ded in finding
the origin of the word Oregon.
Now 1t appears that what could not be
found in Oregon has been discovered by
Archbishop Blanchet In Bolivia when he Wis
tied that country, Chile and Peru, In 1856
and 1857. The word Oregon, in bis opinion,
most undoubtedly has its root in the Spanish
word, oreja (ear); and came from the quail
flying word OREGON, (big ear). For 1t Is prob
able that the Spaniards, who first discovered
aud visited the country, when they saw the
Indians with big ears, enlarged by the load
of ornaments, were naturally inclined to
call them OREGON (big ears). That nickname
first given to the Indians became also the
name of the country. This explains how
Captain Carver got 1t and first made use of 1t.
But the travellers, perhaps Carver himself,
not knowing the Spanish language nor the
peculiar pronunciation Of the ] in Spanish,
for facility sake, would have written 1t and
pronounced It Oregon instead Of OREGON In
changing to g. Such, in oil probability,
must be the origin Of the word Oregon. 1t
comes from the Spanish word, Oreon. This
discovery is due, in justice to the learned
DIR. George Haygarth, A. M. NJ. d. Of Lon
don, q man we'll versed In the Spanish,
whom the Archbishop met In La Paz, Bo-
livia. So much for the etymology Of the
word Oregon. This probably becomes
conviction when we consider how customary
II Is for travellers In o new country to give
appropriate names and how generally these
names are received, retained and pass TO pos
terity. We have not few instances Of this
practice on the Pacific coast, and In Oregon

A NEW MOTOR.
Is This Another "Keeiey" Vision

CHICAGO, March 1.--The announcement
is made of the discovery of new, remarka-
BILE motor known as the Triple Thermic Mo-
tor The new motive power Is the vapor Of
carbon and has been in practical use In
driving sixty. horse power engine for six
months past In the cement paving manufac-
tory on West Forty sixth street, New York.
The discoveIer of the means Of applying the
new power and inventor of machinery adapt
ed to its use is w. S. Colwell, formerly Of
Pittsburg who 1t Is claimed has been at work
many years on the application of the same
material from which the vapoi Is generated
(bisulphide Of carbon). The force and pow
er of the vapor In Its application far surpass-
es steam, and Its application and regulation
are under more perfect control than steam.
The invention or discovery consists In evclv-
ing bisulphide of carbon into vapor for op-
Grating machinery by generating heat In q
generator and transferring 1t into vessel
containing bisulphide of carbon. The la
tent heat of steam Is utilized TO convert the
bisulphide of carbon into vspor, only 11s
degrees being necessary to produce this va
por. A prominent engineer of Chicago, CIV
ing the result of his examination Of the new
motor, says:
81 saw q fifteen horse power boiler, with
very little fire under 1t, generating steam
which generated the new motor, which In
turn ran an engine Of sixty power"
A syndicate has been formed which con-
trolls the inventions and Its patents. The
capital stock is S25 100000, of which sS.OeO,-
600 have already been realized on stock.
Ex. Governor Hubbard Of Texas and Ex Col
lector Baird of Boston are meatloned as be-
ing largely interested in the new motor syn
dicate.

AUTOMATIC.
A Wonderful Machine for Making Watch
Screws.

Screws.
Ddnbury Comm Cor. Boston Globe.
Very many Of the tiny screws used in this
country in Matchmaking, are turned out on
three little automatic machines in this place.
One Of them, while turning out perfect
screw at fair rate of speed, Is considerably
improved on by Its companions. The ma
chine takes up but little room. A man
could carry 1t under his arm without much
difficulty. A wire is fed through tube
into the machine. IL is carried forward by
revolving teeth. As 1t appears knife cuts
away the surplus metal to make the stem
for the thread, just As the chisel operates at
the lathe of the wood-turner. As this is
finished, small tube in which the thread Is
formed advances and clasps the stem, forms
the thread at lightning speed and falls back.
As this is done two knives cut that portion
of and the completed screw falls down.
The wire again advances and the process is
repeated. The marvel of the machine Is
best grasped when the size of the screw
formed is understood. The largest are an
eighth Of an inch in length, and 1t would re-
qure 200 Of them to weigh an ounce. The
thread on the stem Is 50 small that 1t is
scarcely dscernible to the naked eye. Each
machine will make 5000 screws dey. The
machines have been a. work but little more
than month, and are the result Of years Of
patient investigation.

A KENTUCKlAN,S CRIME.
One OF the Crittenden's Sent to the oeni-
tentiary.


LOUISVILLE, Ky., Feb. 29.-Thomas II.
Crittenden, grandson of John j. Crittenden,
the great Kentucky Senator, a nephew of
General Thomas II. Crittenden, of the Uni
ted States army, aud son of Colonel r. II.
Crittenden, late United States Marshal Of
the district of Kentucky, was sentenced to
the penitentiary for eight years to-day for
murder. Crittenden, who is u years old,
was the widest blade of this celebrated
family, noted for dash and courage on the
field and private life. Governor Crittenden,
of Missouri, Is a cousin, as Is Governor Muir
ray, of Utah, and so also was the brave
young Lieutenant Of the Virginius, who met
tragic fate so coolly at Havana ten years
ago. The young murderer, who was raised
at Frankfort, KY, has always moved in the
highest social circles of the State. He was
educated at Center College, graduated with
high honors, and notwithstanding his bright
mind and the fact that promising career lay
before him, plunged at once into dissipation
and recklessness.
Inc crime 1or whlcn ne was sentenced Is
what is known in Kentucky as "nigger kill
Ing" Crittenden had whipped servant on
his fathers place In the country, and was
arrested on charge of assault and battery.
Rose Mosley, q colored man who had wit
messed the assault, gave testimony in court
which convicted Crittenden. After the trial
Crittenden walked up to Mosley and said, 81
will see you later" He then walked across
the street to his residence, procured a shot
gun, walked back and blew off the top Of
Mosley's head. The prisoners family con-
nections made it impossible to convict him
of murder, but the jury, after an hour agreed
on voluntary manslaughter. Two jurors
were for the death penalty.

Wind flower, Wind flower, why are you

For snow-hakes yet futter abroad in the air,
And the sleet and the tempest are weary to

You would seem more at home with the flow
ers Of June.

" Why y?"-and she gracefully nodded her

AS a breeze touched her petals: Perhaps to

That the strong may be sometimes the deli

As of yet not part of these
A woman born above her time,
A woman waiting in her place,
With patient pity on her face.
Her face, her earnest baby face
Her young face so uncommon wise
The tender love-light in her eyes
Two stars of heaven out of place.
Two stars that sang as stars of gold,
Their silent eloqueuce of song,
In skies of glory and Of gold,
Where God in purple passed along
That patient, baby face of hers
That won thousand worshippers!
That silent, pleading face, among
Ten thousand faces just the one
/ still shall love when all is done,
And life lies by a harp unstrung.

Very funny things have happened with
children in plays, bu: the worst occurred TO
a star. think it was Ada Gray, who was
going to play east Lynne" in Richmond.
On her arrival for rehearsal on the morning
of the performance the child who was to
represent "Willien was not forthcoming.
The stage manager assured the star that he
had a child who had often played the part
before, and that it would be call right at
night" But the child was i'll aud could not
come. The manager put his smallest ballet
girl in the bed, but as she couldn't memoriEe
the lines, he got under the bed with the
prompt book. The star was staggered when
she saw the length of the child lying beneath
the clothes, but she struggled bravely on.
When the promp;er's voice, disguised, but
still harsh and hosrse, came out, star and
audience alike Uttered, but the lady made
an effort and threw herself in simulated
agony upon the bed. The property man had
forgotten to take of the castors and away 1t
rolled, leaving the stage manager aud his
prompt book fully revealed. That was the
end of "East Lynne" for that night.

Do what they may, no Mormon leader will

Hassan, who has just added the thousandth
wife to his harem, and has celebrated this
unique millenary by brilliant feast given
to the other 900, or rather to the other 600,
for 400 are either dead or pensioned of.
Like the Mormons, the Sultan does not Keep
all his better halves at one place, but distrib-
utes them among HIS winter aud summer
residences at Fee, Morocco, Taflet, and SO
forth. A son of this very Sultan, the Prince
Muley Edris, not long ago married On italian
goyerness. who did not give up her religion,
and who stipulated that she should be the
only wife: and brother of the Sultan, tbs
sheriff Of Wezdan, has an English wife, who
no doubt was equally determined 70 have
ber husband all to herself.
