horse to grass where the Arlington hotel
now stands. The nearest govern nent sur

says there were only two squatters here at
that time. They were running a little saw
mill with an over-shot wheel. aud sawed
about 800 feet of lumber each day by hard
work There was no dam over the falls.
They had ilnmc about three boards wide
aud one board deep, The nearest railroad
was at Portland, although DR.. Baker was
just beginning his road from Wallula
Junction to Walla Walla Things remained
about the SAME until the fall of 1879, when

Some amusing stories are told Of the

was being examined orally In Scripture.
The history of Moses had for some time
been special study, and one Of the en-
uminers asked, 'What would you say of
the general character OF Mosesy'
Gle was meek" said one boy.
"Bravc," said another.
"Learned, added u third boy.
"Please, sir" piped forth pale faced,
neatly dressed lad, she was q gentle
man "
"a gentleman" asked the examiner.
'How do you make that outY'
The boy promptly replied, in the same
thin, nervous voice. ''Pleasc, sir, when
the daughters OF Jcthro went to the well
to draw water, the shepherds came and
drove them away; and Moses helped the
daughters Of Jethro, and said to the shep'

The Drumheiler Sorrow

Mr.. u. NJ. Drumheller is known all over
the Pacific northwest, and over all this
broad section he will to-day receive the pro-
found sympathy of lis many friends. Ac-
customed to the hard knocks of an active
business life, and we'll known rs man
ready and competent to take care of HIM
self, IA hard blow from dame fortune would
not stagger him, and his friends would
SMILE as they saw him gather himself tn re-
new the contest. But to-day the partner
Of his twenty years struggle goes to her
final rest. This is the time that the strong
man becomes weak for who knows now
much of his strength is buried with that
kind and patient soul who l. as so suddenly
laid down the burdens and surrendered the
p easures of home ard all that the old
fashioned home and mother implies.
lhe loss is irreparable, and although
tine will heal the most painful wound and
take from the keenest sorrow much OF its
bitterness, still IL will not bring back the
one who al ways rejoiced ut success and
victory; wno never failed to sympathize
when disappointment and defeat came with
the pitiless jeers OF those who rejoiced.
Saddest of all, the children are, and must
forever be, motherless. Words, however,
are Of no avail. This brave woman fought
the geod fight. She was factor in estab.
fishing the charitable life we all enjoy in
our new homes, and let US hope that we
may all be as we'll prepared to answer the
final summons. The REVIEW extends its
