PRESIDENT Harrison has issued an
order reducing tho routine Of Sunday
work in the army. The reduction
has long been asked for, but has
been opposed by army men. General
Sherman in particular entered a
warm protest some years ago against
abolishing Sunday morning inspec-
ton. However, many army men
are now in favor of day Of reat,
General Schofeld and Howard are
both in favor of it.

Mr. Edwin W. Joy prosperous druggist
on the corner OF Stockton and Market

dreamed of rivaling in wealth the medi-

rumors having been floating around to the
effect that he has struck it big, an Erqmiacr

was not extensive, and yet the few eases
that came to him attracted no little attcn-

treatment Of liver and kidney disorders

infallible, and his well-kept secret was as

Leisure, The Essential Lacking.

N. w. Durham has a clever article
in the Sunday Oregonian on a trip
to the Nehalem. Now and then some
bright articles appear in different
newspapers In Oregon and Washing
ton, but they are written by men
whose brains are not jaded almost to
death. This is one reason that the
papers here don't have more clever
original articles than they do. No
man can write a sprightly article
whose time has been taken up all day,
and a good part of the night with
fragmentary ''items," and the hundred
different duties of an allround news
paper man.
A paper that is making money
enough to employ additional help can
have such bright articles as Durham's,
but the majority of northwest Pacific
coast newspapers can't afford to have
any one except the few who are en-
gagged in the absolutely necessary
part of getting out the paper"
What is tried to be expressed in
this little skit, is that the ability often
exists, but when the pumps are
started going they suck.
It's pity, too, for there is SO much
of natural beauty, such wonders of
sea and shore to write of, and time,
alone, is all that is needed to put to:
gether many delightful prose epic,
the framework of which comes in the
mind only to be postponed to the un-
certain future, when we will all, let us
hope, have more time.

Providence is in it.
Suggestions made by physicians yes

a storm of Indignation among the
survivors is viewed with more calm
ness to-day. There is a growing sen
timent that it is after all the best So

months will be required to remove
the stupendous mass by artificial
means and in the meantime the putri-
flying remains of poor humanity
buried therein will be dealing death

New YORK, June 4-General Lew
Wallace is very anxious concerning
the safety of his wife. That lady left

that the train which his wife was on

JoHNsTowN, June 4.-Mr. Moxham,

have not closed an eye in sleep since
they awoke on Friday. They are
holloweyed and pitfiul looking. Many
have lost near relatives and all their
friends. Men and horses are most
needed to-day. Some of the unfortun-
ates who could not go to the different
trains endeavored to obtain -four from
wrecked stores in Johnstown. One
dealer was charging $5 sack for
-four. Suddenly the crowd heard of
the occurrence and several desperate
men went to the store and delivered
the flour gratuitously to the homeless
and stricken people. Another was sell
ing flour at S1.50 q sack. He refused
to give any away, guarding his store
with shotgun.
Many bodies recovered in Johns
town to-day had been robbed by
ghouls that flock to the scene. 1t is
known that one lady had several hun
dred dollars in her possession just be-
fore the disaster, but when her body
was recovered not cent was in her
pocket. The Hungarians attacked a
supply wagon between Morrelville and
Cambria City to-day. The drivers re-
pulsed them, but they again returned
for a second fight, but after a lively
scrambling the Huns were again
driven away. After that the drivers
and guards of supply wagons were
permitted to go armed.
Registers are being opened in Johns
town and all survivors are requested
to register in order to give informa-
ton to anxious friends.
