pressed close to her masters side.

"Miss Anna," the voice began
again, weakly, ''the boys all know
and love her." and then suddenly rec
ollecting, he turned his eyes on the
manly bearded face around him, and
noted their moist eyes, then with the
old frank smile Of appreciation he
muttered: dying tonight, dying
tonight. Sing it, Orphee:"
The river rushed and sang, the
wind sighed airily through the sor-
rowful pines, but distinct and clear
rose the voice of Orphee, that sweet
high tenor, thrilling with tears and
pathos. 1t quivered and fell as it
reached the chorus, and the dying
tonight" was sobbed out on his
knees as he held the poor, cold hands
close to his breast. The wounded
men turned ON the rough floor, the
surgeons desisted from their work,
and one little fellow, his breast, shot
to pieces, crossed himself inv0lunta-
rily, stirred by the sorrowful sweet
ness.
Again Parsons spoke:
"Be good, boys, to Miss Anna.
No better, truer sweetheart could
you find. Say with me now, God
bless Miss Anna ="
And we said it with him.
"Amen," he answered solemnly
and with a spasm of pain he was ly

his breast.

Georgia's Munchausen on Pigeons.

Reading your pigeon story remind.
ed me of a pigeon story ! have heard
my friend Mr.. John y. Holmes tell.
1t ran thus: zone morning before it
was light went up on Pigeon Creek
to shoot pigeons. Tiled my horse to
a swinging limb and waited for it to
become light enough for ME to see
how to shoot. When it was light
enough shot at some pigeons near
by and when the smoke cleared away
/ noticed that my horse was gone. l
looked all around for him, bnt could
not see him nowhere until, hearing a
groan, looked up and saw him
hanging in the air. ! had tied him
to the top of the tree on which the
pigeons were roosting, and when l
fired the gun the pigeons flew, the
tree Strengthened up and carried my
horse with it. Friend John is q strict
member of the church. "-Talbottom

HARRISON AS A CITIZEN.
His Pastor of Many Years Speaks Of
His Practices.

Some famous men, like prophets have
least honor in their own country but truly
great men, those whose greatness is inner
ent and not borrowed, are as able to bear
the every day scrutiny Of their neighbors
as the occasional glimpse OF strangers. OF
the latter class is Benjamin HARRISON, for
here is his pastor Rev. NJ. l.. Haine' OF
the First Presbyterian Church Of Indian
apolis, a man who has known the rePub'
lican candidate for years, writing of him
in leading journal;
There Is about General Harrison an
utter absence of pretenca or affectaiion lie
discards any attempt to make n show OF
himself, and would be the last person to
sneak or act for mere effect. Open aud
straightforward in both language and ae-
tons, he lacks that quality Of politician
which makes one expert at pulling wires
and laying pipes.
"He impresses one as being a man oi
balanced mind and clear CONVICTIONS VINO
would give any truth brought before him
a fair chance, but who would allow moth
ing to swerve him from the path Of duty.
With hA a promise is sacred; with him
YES means yes and no means no. He
IS not man desirous Of debating to 9TH
ers, nor will he allow himself to be die
taled TO.
Decided in his convictions, broad IN
his views. inspired by high moral Pur'
pose, ruled by a coneienee both strong and
informed, he has led life in this city con-
spicuous for lis probiiy and its stainless
integrity"

The Upper Willamette.

The Willamette has begun to rise
perceptibly, but not enough to al
low the Oregon Pacific Company or
the Oregon Railway & Navigation
Company to start their Upper Will
lamette boats. Even the Three Sis
ters, which is the lightest draft of
them all, could not carry much
more than her unloaded weight.
A general impression prevails among
river men, however, that the coming
week will see rain enough to cause
sufficient rise in the river to allow
navigation to start.

means of development.
The snagboat Corvallis has COM
menced putting in bouys at Rock
island, and will work on up the
river. The Willamette has not been
sent up, but has been sluicing at
Skamokawa, where she is sstill work
ing. Some dissatisfaction has been
expressed 10y transportation compan-
les that this boat, which was design
ed to work upon the upper river,
aud built out of its appropriation,
should not he sent up. 1t is said on
the contrary, however, that the Cor
wallis is better adapted to that work,
being OF lighter draft.
