IN MEMORIAM.


On the death of ]. ]. Whitsett, member
Of Umpqua Camp of Indian War Veterans.
His tolls are DER, his work is done,
His>weary soul is now at rest,
And death the victory hath won,
He ranks as one divincly biest.
He fought the fight of life below,
And gradually succumbed TO posoer.
Uprightly he received deaths blow,
And mans judgment falls as passing shower.
He risked his life to bring US peace
In early manhood against the foe;
In yondcr grave he's found release
From all those that entaileth woe.
So let him sleep his work is DER,
He's marching 70 heavenly strain,
A patriot is waited to Gods sweet shore,
And mourniul his comrades will remain.

in Texas.
A cowARoLY LOT OF PASSENGERS.

ubtes anil 1tcait the ERtrance of
the Robbers

ST. LoCIs, Dec. I2.-Particulars Of the
train robbery yesterday near Bellevue station
Texas, are that three robbers, who were un-
masked, and made no effort at concealment,
arrived at the water tank few minutes before
the train, When the train arrived one of the
robbers, with drawn pistol, ordered Engin.
Ger Ayers and his fireman, and o. e. Miller,
another engineer, who was riding in the cab,
to allght, which they did. He then marched
them some thirty feet from the train and went
through them, taking all the valuables they
had. While this was going on the two other
men went through the train.
FORTUNATE CIRCUMSTANCE.
Ii appears that one Of the passengers in the
rear car, who was looking out Of window
and saw the operation with the train men,
OWNED the situation. He went to the for
ward cars and notified the other passengers
of what was going on, and told them TO secrete
their money. This they did in various ways
giving most pfit and their diamonds, 10 several
ladies aboard. Miss Kate Haas, of Fort
Worth, took charge Of $1,000 and other val
uablcs. Mrs. Chambers, of Pottsdam, N. Y.
received $1,000 and some diamonds, and Mrs
Wittick, of Carthage, Mo. took her husbands
gold watch and several hundred dollars, Mrs
Wittick was greatly incensed, and boldly stood
up in the car and asked if forty men wers
going 10 tamely submit TO such an outrage a
the hands Of two highwaymen.
WHAT THEY DIDN'T GET.
| About SI2, 200 in money and $4,000 wortf
Of diamonds and other valuables were left b,
the robbers in their haste to get through tht
train, and because they did not search thu
ladies. They were evidently novices in th'
business, and went away with the paltry sun
of SIo5, three gold watches, ten silver watche
five revolvers and one gold ring. The robber
left the tram at the rear end Of the sleeper
mounted horses, standing near by, and rod'
rapidly away.
| The train was then hurried on to Bellevue
where kilograms were sent to Superlntenden
Frost, at Fort Worth, who Immediately re
Piled, offering $3.50 reward for each robher
and in less than an hour FIVE posses of officer
and citizens were in pursuit.

4 Charming Carlyle Letter.

Among the newly-published Carlyle letters

his 10th year to his sister of IL:
Dear Little Jane: Thou never wrotest me
any kind of letter, yet would be glad to see
one from thy hand. There is in that little
body Of thine as much wisdom as ever inhab-
tied SO small space; besides, thou art true
character, steel to the back, never told lie,
never flinched from telling the truth; and for all
these things love thee, my little Jane, and
wish thee many blithe new years from the
bottom of my heart. Does the little creature
ever make any rhymes now? Can she write

that Russia refused t01ecognze the legality of
the condition Of affairs which an insignificant
minority seized supreme power and imagined
it was entitled to guide Bulgarian dcstinies,

One eve as | sat pouring o'er,
An ancient tome Of mystic lore;

Into a trance some how Ifell.
Likewise the tome fell from my hand
And lay outspread upon the stand
Thus, being freed from worldly care
My soul rose upward in the ar,
And looking back upon the clay,
A breathing pulsate body lay;
And, save the breathing living breath,
That form lay silent as in death.
The dormant brain no thoughts evolve,
"a mystery | could not solyc)
While all life's forces still move on
In perfect harmony to join
External force with one acclaim,
For one grand purpose all do aim;
Liquids and solids all unite
Within the darkness as in light,
To form one body, mortal man,
The acme of perfect plan
A elimination of design
That proves the planned quite divine.
Oblivious to sentient thought,
(The earthly things knew them not.)
on the wings of fancy flew
To learn the why Of all we view

And saw how intricate the same;
saw the bone, the muscles, heart,
saw the vital currents dart
And fly with force to every part
And with new impulse start
When pain or pleasure bade it 60;
Or leave behind with slackened flow
When palsying fear or deep despair
Called to the heart to tarry there.

While gazing on the wonderous scene,
My soul elated. yet serene,
Fair Psyche bade me follow her
Still farther on is worShiper,
OF space and Force, and further see
The granduer Of immensity.
So on we moved ten millions more,
The end no nearer than before;
Though worlds on worlds passed in view,
The scene was grand, enchanting, new.
Each moving in his primal course,
Impeled by one grand mighty FORCE
That holds all matter in his hand
From floating notes to planets grand,
The molicule or the bounding sea,
Immortal minds or r-spirits free,
The subtle gass or granite rock,
He keeps them in without shockl
Their proper place, by laws intent
On planets grand, in armament.
And thus in one eternal round
FORCE holds the mystery profound
Keeping all worlds safe in their course
By this one grand dei6c FORCE.
And thus it is we're made to sec
That innate Force is Deity.
Intelligen Force is the God
And everywhere is his abode
Creating and sustaining all
Elsewhere as on this earthly ball.

VERDICT For GOVERNMENT TIMBER,-The
case of the United States VS.. H. Z. Messenger,
charged with cutting timber on government
land in Douglas county, was tried in the
United States circuit court this week. 1t was
shown that defendant had cut timber on one
section, which he manufactured into 20, 900
feet oflumber. The jury returned verdict
for the plaintiff for the value OF the lumber, at
$I4 per thousand, $84o. It was shown that
still larger amount oftimber had been cut ON
a section of railroad land. The court held
that the government could not recover for
that, as the land grant Of the o. s. c rail
road had not been forfeited, and it made no
difference whether it had been earned or not,
the land belonged to the company till the
grant was forfeited by the government.

SCIENCE AGAIN. MIR. Editor; being aware
that you are liberal enough to admit of inves-
tieation wish to call your attention to the
laws Of the physical and spiritual universe as
they are called by many theologians who be-
lieye in science. Agreeable with their views
spiritual laws are coexistent and coeternal with
physical. While the Atheist says there is no
God but force, the Deist says there is noforce
but God. According to the Deist, force
could not be without God, nor could Il demon.
strate itself without matter or organs TO act
upon. Then in accordance with the Athe-
istic view there could be no God without force,
and universe. So we infer that God works
by ways and means and also that light, heat,
magnetism, electricity, and gravitation are
counterparts of God. Upon this hypothesis
there can be no science without God, neither
can there be God without scientific facts to
demonstrate it. Also with regard to the cor
porea! or physical man who is intimately and
inseperably connected with the metaphysical
or psychical man. From their incipiency they
cooperate until dissolution by death, though
sometimes intercepted by idiocy, idiosyncrasy
and insanity. The physical man being CON-
posed of native elements or properties such as.
lime, sulphur, sodium, iron, water &C., by
natural process is resolved into their incorpor-
cal forms. Now, does the metaphysical or
psychical man revert TO the forces of nature
which developed it, by coming in contact with
the physical man by acting upon the nerves of
the vertebras in fact the whole system with
the brain. or does it preserve its individuality
without physical organ. As God is said to
be in state of ubiquity, is in all and over
all, can any law in theology conflict with any
law Of the physical universe. We will as
sumo that those who know little ofthe laws Of
the universe know little about God or them
selves. L. C. HILL.
