A Dancing Girls Reuuest.

livery year, when autumn approaches,
Queen Victoria has her trunks packed
and goes 4 pilgrimage to the shrine of
the late John Brown at Balmoral. The
quiet life which her majesty is generally
leading becomes then absolutely dull and
greatly e1asperates her suite From the
windows of her royal apartments. the
queen can glance at the white marble
monument ON dear Johns tomb. and all
her time is devoted either to the mem
ory Of the ever lamented" or the faithful
servant who managed to crawl up to
such high place IL her royal affections.
Once in while, however. the dullest
OF all the crowned heads in Europe feels
dull herself. Last year the parson of
Balmoral, who is daily guest at the
royal table, seeing her majesty so bored,
and knowing her weakness for every
thing Scotch, spoke to her of one of her
tenants daughters, who could dance the
reel better than any girl in Scotland.
The young lady was ordered to appear
before her majesty the following day.
When ushered into the queens presence
her majesty said, Il hear You can dance
the reel well; dance"
There was nothing left for the Young
lady to do hut to dance ana she did it 50
gracefully that her majesty's severe face
almost took "A pleasant expression.
After the performance was over she
asked the girl if the queen could do any
thing for her.
The young lady first hesitated, but

Columbia River Salmon,

The catch of salmon is still light, but
is improving slightly, which is consid-
cred a very good indication that there
are plenty of fish outside. The fish be-
ing caught are unusually fine, averaging
thlrty-fve pounds i'll weight, and run
ming nearly all of the same size. Fish
ermen say that lis soon as the water in
the river begins to fall the fish will COM
mence to pour in, and there is q chance
that heavy run may swell the pack to
at least somewhere near the usual pro-
portions.
Mr.. James Hawthorn says he coma
menced fishing last year on May 10, and
this year he began on April 10, a month
earlier, and now he has only eightv-five
cases more than he had at this time last
ysar. While the salmon are swarniing
1T the mouth of the river the sea lions
and seals are having picnic.
