We advertised a few
weeks since a special coach
at S12 and recommended
the same TO be good value
for the money.
We were quickly followed
by another dealer who ad-
vertised a special $12 car
rage, something he didn't
have. Also, stated he had
the cheapest and largest line
in the city and a line he con.
trolled. All of this is hum
bug, as they have nothing
we can't get if It's worth
having and we want 1t.
Don't buy until you see
our stock. We have a large
line of them at reasonable
prices ard some that are
way below reason.
At the first Of the season
we bought a large lot OF
sample coaches from which
we selected the patterns we
wanted to handle. The ball

to mount horse, when he was sent
away with provisions for his jour
ney to the nearest town and some
money for his entertainment there.
Bernal was a high-toned robber,
who only took money and weapons,
never troubling his victims for their
watches or jewelry. If no resist
ance was offered he never killed q
man unless he had some special
reason for doing SO, but to any one
who gained his i'll will he was mer-
ciless. For some reason Mr.. Bald
win and his companions appear to
have been especial objects of his
hatred. His death removes from
that part of Mexico a source of
great and constant danger, for al
though there are other robbers left,
the general impression is that there
is no one capable of succeeding the
willy chieftain in courage, tactical
military knowledge. nor the power
of organizing, holding together and
controlling such a body of men as
he had drawn about him, and over
whom his word was law.-San
Francisco Alta.

Will 1888 Be a Year of War?

The present year is the fifth year
of modern times in which the ag-
gregate of the figures is twenty-five,
and there will be but five more
years in which such a combination
is possible prior to the year 1899.
Probably but few have ever heard
of the old prophecy, which runs as
follows:
In every future year of our Lord,
When the sum of the figures is twenty-five
Some warlike kingdom will draw the sword,
But peaceful nations in peace shall thrive.
Students of modern history will
readily recall how faithfully this
prophecy has been fulfilled in the
four previous years to which it ap-
piled.
In 1899 Russia, Denmark and
Poland formed the coalition against
Sweden which inaugurated the great
war that ended in the disastrous
defeat of Charles XII at Pultowa.
The year 1889 will ever be mem
orable on account of the breaking
out of the French Revolution.
The year 1898 witnessed the cam
paign of Bonaparte in Egypt and the
formation of the second European
coalion against France. :
In 1879 war broke out between
England and Afghanistan, followed
by the ivasion of the latter country
by British troops.
In what manner the prediction is
to be verified in 1888 remains yet
to be seen. but the present condi-
ton of Europe seems to promise
an abundant fulfillment of the
phrophecy. philadelphia Inquirer.

The Champion Whistling Girl.

Whistling is the craze with New
York girls just now. Mrs. Shaw is
the champion whistler now, and
she has scores Of unsuccessful i'm
itations. Mrs. Shaw's fute-like
notes are described as simply phe-
nomenal compared to the average
young lady's, and those who expect
to emulate her successfully must
in the first place be assisted by nat
ural aptitude. Some years ago it
was rare thing to hear a young
lady whistling, but now every house
hold has young daughter that
goes about the house trying to i'm
itate the birds. There was a time
when it was considered very unre-
fined for a young lady to whistle,
and the mother always chided her
by repeating the very trite lines
about a whistling woman and a
Growing hen never coming to good
end. All that is changed now and
the mother and father are just as
proud of their daughters whistling
accomplishments as they used to
be of their skill as musicians. The
mondolin, guitar and banjo for the
present are relegated to the back
stairs of unpopularity to make
room for the new craze.

A TRICK IN RIFLE SHOOTING.

"No, sir, l do not claim to be an
expert at fancy shooting" said
Captain Jack Crawford, who at one
time lived in Portland, in answer to
the "Arounder's" inquiry. "There is
too much trickery-a sort of sleight
of hand business connected with it..
do pretend to be crack shot and
to excel in accuracy and rapidity
with a Winchester rifle. The Win
chester Arms company has offered
repeatedly to back me for $1,000
against any man in the world in
that sort of skill. l have fired twelve
shots in three and a half seconds.
But here let me enlighten you as to
one Of the neat little tricks used IN
fancy Shots" Here the scout pro-
duced what appeared to be, as he
held it at distance, brass shell
tipped with leaden ball. "Looks
like bullet, doesn't it?" he said,
with a laugh, "Well, it isn't. It is
simply papier mache protuberance

about two hundred he said were
in the shell, with just enough pow
der at the butt to do the work.
How are these used? You have
probably witnessed the feat Of
cracking glass balls thrown in the
air by shooting at them with a Win
chester, and while riding a horse
going at a gallop. Well, that's the
kind of a BALI cartridge that is
used and the spectators look on
with wonder and admiration, sup
posing that it is done with single
ball, and that is something, my boy,
that no man in the world has ever
done or will do, because it is a
physical impossibility."

Courtesy to Children.

Why are not people more court
eous to children? People appear
to think while good manners should
be strenuously exacted from chill
dren precept in this connection may
stand instead of example, and that
orders may be given them and re-
marks made upon them as if they
were devoid of natural feelings and
perceptions. As matter of fact,
if, when people want children to do
something for them, they would ask
it in the same way in which they
would address an equal; if they
would thank them for little services
rendered, speak to them gently, an
swer their reasonable questions
civilly and avoid unnecessary COM
ments upon their appearance they
would have far less trouble in teach
ing them to behave with like con-
sideration for others. This does
not mean that children should be
continually waited upon, that their
faults should pass unnoticed or
their convenience studied before
that of their elders-merely that,
as St. Paul says, that they should
not be provoked to wrath.-Lon-
