To he Editor Of The Tribune
SIR: In a sketch OF Mr.. Lamar, written by A. H.

sentence occurs His speech upon the death Of Mr.

sIBUNE gave full report Of Mr.. Lamars speech,
as / find from my scrap book, and 1t seems wholly un
like any other Of his public utterances that recall
having read.
Some time after this Sumner speech Mr. Lamar
spoke in the South and not only took back all that he
had said on the floor of Congress regarding Sumner
but made many apologies for having eulogzcd him. A
traitor to tho Union la '61 he had scripeS against
praising tho Massachusetts Senator in Washington,
and crtclsirg him and the which he represented
when he thought 1t policy to do so before Southern
audiences. / have referred in general terms to these
speeches in tho south, because have not copies OF

While pretending to comply Reynolds
slammed the safe door shut and turned

The bank was then ransacked and all
the money In the cash drawer, some
$23, 900. was taken. An attempt was
made to open the safe. but In this the
robbers were foilei. As the sound OF
pistol shots were heard several persons
came rushing towards the bank. and
In few minutes two officers were
aroused aud twenty or thirty armed
men hurried TO the bank. The rob-

Converting the savage is as hard -

which he employed TO conquer and
subdus-was In its nature - overpow-

the savage mind. IL penetrated with
magical effects and made its perms-

stating; ~ am kept In bed by rheu-

therefore, recommend that remedy 10

1t known. The same sense Of heroic
duty prompts him. and In conquering
the instincts Of the savage by patience
he has by patience found the greatest

Oregon Chinese Phsassnts.

About six years ago the experimen,
ofstocking Oregon with Chinese pheas.
Ants was tried. A number Of these
beautiful birds were imported from
China. and they were turned out In
Lane county. Al the same time Law
was passed protecting foreign game for
. term Of ten years. The success OF the
venture now appears TO be unpreoe-
dented. The.hen birds raise two big
broods every year and never lose .
chick. The results have been that
the birds have increased 10 marvellous
numbers. II is said that there are
thousands Of them In Willamette val.
ley, and that they destroy 80 much
wheat that the farmers will attempt to
have the protective law repealed this
winter. The farmers say that one
pheasant will destroy moro wheat
