The Hatlantic to the Specific.

The latest voyaging expedition for
sensational objects, has been devised
by the New York Mail and Express,
which on the 10th instant started a
member OF its staff from that city in u
canoe up the Hudson river, with in
structions to proceed to the Pacific
coast and empty bottle Of water taken
from the Atlantic coast at Sandy Hook
into the Pacific ocean at the mouth of
the Columbia river. 1t is expected
that he will end the trip next October.
The route is 1900 miles long, and
passes through or alongside of seven
teen States, between the starting point,
at the statue of Liberty, and Fort
Candy, Wash.
The principal waterways to be trav-
ersed are the Hudson river, Erie canal,
the Ohio, Mississippi, Missouri and
Columbia rivers. The first carry will
be from Lake Erie into Chautauqua
lake; the next will be at the great
falls Of the Missouri, and the third over
the summit of the Rocky mountains.
The voyage is to be made in the first
seamless paper canoe ever constructed.
1t weighs sixty-two pounds, is fifteen
feet in length, fifty inches beam;
depth amidships, nine inches; storage
room, forty-one feet two inches. The
bow and stern and six feet amidships
are clear for stateroom. The sail is
= standing lug" eight feet on the
boom, six feet and six inches on the
head, and five feet gaf.
The impressive ceremony attending
the emptying of the bottle will doubt
less attract a throng OF people, as it in
variably does, even under less notable
circumstances.

ERICKSON, the mad prophet who pre-
dicted the destruction of Oakland, San
Francisco and other California cities,
accounts for the failure of the proph.
ecy as an evidence of the efficacy OF
prayer. He maintains that the
prayers of himself and followers have
influenced God to delay the tidal wave
for a few days, and urges his followers
to remain on the hilltops until he can
get some information from the Lord
telling them what to do next.

vote for revision will be nearly two
thirds.

]. Berry, who died few days ago at
Walla Walla, was born in Kentucky
in 1899 and removed in youth to Indi-
ana. She crossed the plains in 1858,
and settled in this county, where she
resided till 1854; thence removed to
Walla Walla valley, where she re-
manned till death, on the 18th inst.
Six sons and three daughters survive

ton and adjoining counties remember
her many virtues, and sympathize
with her family in their great loss.

The Grand Army men Of Washington City are
peopostng grand encampment there In 1881, to
celebrate the thirteenth anniversary Of the out
break q the civil war. and suggest the date Of the
Sesttte ExYress.
Rather queer. But it is quite prob
able that some of these veterans recog.
nize in the possibilities Of war have been
their only avenue to fame, and hail with
satisfaction anything that serves their
selfish purposes. Such men would, OF
course, regard the defeat at Bull Run
as . blessing, although it imperiled
the life of the nation.

The welcome intelligence is flashed
across the continent that the McKin-
ley tariff bill puts diamonds on the
free list. These prime articles of
necessity will now be sold at rates to
place them within the reach of the
representative American sovereign.
He will be enabled to wear a cluster
on his breast, that will rival locomo-
tive headlight and snap his fingers in
the face of the bloated millionaire who
has become obese from the constant
familiarity with such luxurious Access
series. Now if we can get the tariff on
silks and fine linens still further re-
duced, the poor man will begin to live
on full stomach.

MANY of our older people will recall
the sensation created long back in the
!" fifties" by the appearance and brief
reign of the Boomer costume, for
women. It consisted of short skirt
and pantalets. 1t was laughed out OF
existence as quickly as the Dolly Var
den suit, which soon followed. The
latter consisted simply of goods OF
large figure and deep color, and had no
reference to the style of makeup.
The object of this Renaissance is,
however, merely to state that Mrs.
Bloomer, who gained national renown
from wearing pants over a third of q
century ago, still lives, and on the
18th celebrated the 5Oth anniversary Of
her marriage to the party who wears
the dual pair Of bifurcated garments.
