Cescrsed by Her Boy Husband and
Living Alone ON Her Farm tn Ore.
gon.
On a farm among gentle undulatine
hills, four miles from Eugene. Or, on the
east side OF the Willamette river, resides
Mrs. Allison-Miller, mother OF Joaquin
Miller, the Poet Of the Sierrss." Over Q
year ago, despite the protests Of her sons,
she married Joe Allison, a farm hand, some
10 years Of age. As Mrs. Miller was up
wards OF s., the marriage proved anything
but a happy one. The boy deserted her,
and during the recent ~dreadfully cold
weather she lived all alone, struggling
through the snow two or three times a day
to feed her horses and cattle. II is on this
same farm that the poet grew toward mans
estate, save when he was living in the wild
woods with the Digger Indians, enjoying
camp life and the pursuits of the chase.
The house is plain and unpretentious. The
fences are in poor repair, although the
owner is reputed rich among her neigh
bors, having many hundred acres.
$50 this is the place where the com
panion Of Bret Harte spent many Of his
days 2" said 3 correspondent OF the New
York Sun to Mrs. Miller.
"Yes, this is the place; but bless you,
I'm as much Of q poet myself as Joaquin"
she said, producing from the depths Of an
aged trunk a roll Of manuscript which
made me instinctively feel uneasy.
Here's an epic, and here's another in 16
cantos that l wrote myself. Oh, yes we all
dabble a little in poetry"
How long ago did your son begin to
writer"
"Oh, he was always at it. He was a
little bit of a boy when he first began
scribbling verses, and he's kept it up with
tolerabls regularity ever since. / used to
try to make him quit il, thinking no good
could come OF it, but l couldn't succeed.
He's off now at New Orleans writing up
the Exposition for the Eastern press.
Here are several letters lately re-
ceived from him." said she reach
ing toward 0 convenient shelf. I'm
glad. on the whole, that joaquin didn't
take my advice, and that he
continued to do as he pleased and write
poetry. The first poem that he wrote that
attracted attention was one on the plant
ing Of the class tree at the old Lane
County Academy, where the State Univer-
sity now stands. 1t was copied in all the
papers. He ran 9 weekly in Eugene dur
ing the war. 1t was Q redhot abolition
sheet, and the Missouri roughs from Long
Tom Greek over here swooped down and
demolished the office. Then he practiced
law awhile at Baker City, and afterwards
he wrote his Songs Of the Sierras,' which
brought him into prominence"
Mrs. Miller is tall and somewhat angu-
lar. Her hair Ia well s~ilvered over with
gray, and her eyes, once dark, are now
dimmed. True 70 the habits Of the pio-
neer, she braves her difficulties, resolutely
dries her tears over her recent matrimo-
NAL infelicity, feeds her stock, and roughs
1t uncomplainingly in her work on the
lonesome farm.

The position of the Mormon press on the
way that men guilty of certain crimes
should be tried. says the Salt Lake Tribune
and when convicted punished, is not orig

man who was sentenced to be hanged.
He admitted the crime, and did not
object to the punishment, but insisted
that as he had a throat difficulty, the
rope should be placed under his arms.
The Mormon press can easily show
that everything done AZ present a.

still insists that all that is asked fol-

enough that any trial which will

A Medicine Man Assassinated.

Pancho, the medicine man of the Yuma
Indians, in Arizona, was shot and killed
Sunday night near Tucson, as lie supposed,
by relatives OF Capt. Antonio, sub-chief,
who dropped dead at the horse race two
weeks ago. The relatives Of Antonio say
the medicine man bewitched their chief
and took his heart out, causing his death;
hence their summary action last night.
Pancho's relatives are on the warpath for
the murderers OF the medicine man, and
prospects for q serious internscine conflict
are good, as both dead Indians had scores
OF relatives and followers. among them
young bucks who are willing TO back their
sentiment by resort to violence. The In

trary.

ANECDOTE or GRANT.

The Washington correspondent Of
the New York Tribune writes:
Senator ingalls,, in speaking Of
General Grant week ago, said:
General Grant was one of the
most entertaining after-dinner talk
ers / ever knew. He was only the
silent man in crowds and at times
when datterers tried to draw him
out and make him talk about him
self. But after dinner, or with
few congcnisl friends anywhere, he
was ready, interesting and often
fascinating in conversation. l recall
especially one evening when General
Grant was President. 1t was at q
dinner party he gave at the White
House. Among the guests were
number of senators and General
Sheridan. Mrs. Grant and the
ladies had retired from the table,
and we were smoking our cigars.
General Grant talked great deal.
He was in his happicst mood, and
know everybody enjoyed him just
as much rs l did. l don't know
how it came about, but finally we
began to go backward, and talk of
the time of life man would most
care to live over again.
"Each one mentioned some par
ticular age when life seemed bright
est and most desirable, and period
he would enjoy to live the second
time. Some turned back to boy
hood, others to early manhood with
the pleasantcst recollections, while
to some the present was most salts
factory. And you, General what
part of your life would you like to
live over again. one of the guests
asked Of the President.
General Grant dropped his chin
on his breast and was silent for q
minute or two. can sec him now,
as we all waited for his answer and
tried to read it in his face, which,
as usual, was sealed book. But
We fully expected he would choose
that part of his life which had been
prosperous and great. He lifted his
head and said in voice of quiet
decision that left ne doubt of since
rity:
"tAll Of it. l should like to live
all Of my life over again. There
isn't any part of it l should want to
