Dr. Hirsch, of Chicago, recently as- serted that the word "sheeney" was first used by Thackerary. This is denied by a correspondent who says it appeared in 1927 in curious sitirical novel, by Will liam Maginn, entitled Whitehall, or the days of George IV." This is the passage in which it occurs. 'tSir George Mac Gregor was sent forward to delude the Jews into that fatal pass. The talent of that great man and his interest with the Hebrews soon succeeded. 'Sheeniss

Two months have already passed since
the law went into effect authorizing the
state to build portage railway at the
Cascades, and the general government
granted the right of way for the same,
and up to this moment nothing has been
done in the way of locating the road so
that the portage commission could go to
work to build it. Meanwhile the river
has been slowly rising 80 as to render, it
more difficult and expensive to build the
inclines at either end of the road. We
do not believe the portage commission is
to blame for the delay except in SO far
as they have put any faith in Major
Handbury's profession that he desired
to see the road bnilt and built at the ex-
pense of the general government. IF
the Mayors pretensions are sincere why
has he not located the road SO that the
commission. could go to work without
delay? We have lost all patience with
this dillydallying mayor. 1t is. a pity
that any suggestions of his were ever
listened to for q moment. There is a
faulty of postponement and delay con-
nected with everything he touches, re-
lating to the opening of the Columbia
river. 1t was not sufficient that he
should haye contributed to the defeat of
the Raley bill by giving representative
Mccoy an excuse to fight it under the
pretense that it would cost million to
build the road on the Oregon side. He
must pretended that he is in favor of
the government building the portage at
the Cascade, and the moment the por-
tage commission listened to him, at that
moment began another series of those
delays and postponements that have
cursed everything he has touched, look
ing to the relief of the people of Eastern
Oregon.

NATIONAL PATRIOTISM.

There is something remarkable in the
patriotism of the average American cit
izen. For simple intensity it has no
equal in any country on earth. The
American citizen is proud of his country
and her institutions as he has right to
be, and the respect shown to President
Harrison as the representative head of
these is but the natural exhibition of
this pride. In this city tomorrow as in
every place the president may visit, all
distinctions OF party, sect and creed will
be forgotten in the common desire to do
him honor. Men who have bitterly op-
posed him at the polls will be foremost
and heartiest to give him the hand of
welcome. All this is as it should be and
is as distinct from the servile homage
and fiunkeyism of the average subjects
of monarchy and aristocracy as freedom
is different from slavery.

rhe rime for P.n.x R.as.

There is nothing more attractive in the
early spring than a pansy bed. In order
to secure blossoms early the plants must
have attained a proper size under glass.
It is necessary, therefore, to SOW pansy
seed early. Any long wooden box fitted
into sunny window in a moderately
cold room, but where it does not freeze,
will do for seedbox Be sure the
earth is rich, well fertilized with thor
oughly rotted compost and woodmold,
and that it is fine and friable,r so the
tiny seed can, easily thrust down their
slender roots in it. Keep the earth mod
erately moist after sowing the seed, and
in short time the little plants will be
up and growing.
1t requires some resolution to thin out
the greater portion of them in order to
give those that are left sufficient room
to grow, but, this must be done without
sparing or all the plants will be weak
hngs. Very pretty effects can be pro-
duced by raising a box of white or near
ly white pansies for border, and box
of mixed, dark, velvety ones for the CEN
ter of the bed. These quaint, blotched,
lovely flowers seem more. like living
things than any other blossom. .sOld

All for . Slight Error.

The Berlin correspondenttofss z syndi-
cate of provincial papers is responsible
for the following story;. son the occa-
sion of the Resembling of. the holy
synod IN the Russian capital it was. re-
solved to forward to his najesty I'm acl
cordance with traditional usage, the
archipastoral benediction.A The clerk
who was employed to prepare the docu-
ment formally communicating the pious
resolution made curious mistake By
a slip of the pen he wrote architectural
instead of tarchipastoral,' and the reso-
luton was forwarded without the error
being detected.
when the czar received it he laughed
heartily and wrote on the margin, Il
have no need of such blessing He
then dismissed the matter from his mind.
The document, however. with the impe-
rial annexation, found its way back to
the holy synod, and produced among the
members of that body the greatest sur:
prise and CONSERVATION. Without stop
ping to investigate the matter the eccle-
siastics who were responsible for the res
olution jumped to the conclusion that
they had in some way or other incurred
the czar's displeasure, and that his mai
esty's comment was an intimation to
them that they were expected immedi-
ately to resign. u
'sThey accordingly went in a body to
the imperial palace and humbly rendered
their joint and several designations It
was now the turn of the czar to be over
whelmed with amazelnent, and it was
only after good deal of embarrassment
and reciprocal explanations that the
matter was set right. The interview
terminated with mild hint on the part
of his majesty that, even in the records
of religious bodies, verbal accuracy is a
very desirable quality"

The town of Dufur has just put into
operation the most unique, effective and
inexpensive system of water works we
know of anywhere. They have placed
an old fashioned over-shot wheel, eight
feet in diameter, near the creek from
which the water is easily conveyed to
drive the wheel. A two inch supply
pipe is sufficient for the wants of the
community and the wheel furnishes the
power to drive the water to an ample
reservoir at an elevation back of the
town. The wheel made its first revolu-
ton of 80 to the minute on the 28th ult-
imo and it works like charm. 1t raises
more water than the people can use and
they use it everywhere. In fact word
comes to this Office that compared with
the Dufur water works The Dalles sys-
tenn is simply nowhere. But this is not
all. The Dufurites see wonderful pos
sibilities in their little overshot wheel.
They intend to use it as the power for
an electric light plant for the town, and
as this use would only employ it during
the night, they talk of making it run a
chopping mill and turning lathe during
the day, at intervals when it is not need
ed to supply water. We shall not be
much surprised if somebody bitches an
attachment to it that will enable it to
milk cows, split kindling wood and put
the children to bed at night.

Presents at Easter.

The custom of giving Easter presents
grows every year, and'nowi this festival
is second. only to the supreme one. of
Christmas in this regard. A, few years
ago an Easter card, or at most an egg
shaped bonbonniere filed with sweet
meats, was the height of giver's aInbi-
ton. Now the limit is difficult to set
A palm in hundred dollar jar, a price

Easter offering if the shrine is especially
worshiped and your purse is in keeping
with your desire.
The egg element has been considerably
eliminated in the modern Easter, bonbon
boxes having suddenly taken on an al
most indefinite variety. Those in Dres-
den china are undoubtedly the most TO
be priced. Certainly porcelain candy
boxes are the most sensible, as they out
live the confections and the day. One
hears, however, of $3.50 paid for hand

Giving New York Children a Vacation.
Those who apply for a chance to send
their children to the country are in
structed that they must be poor and
needy, without any infectious disease,
clean and free from vermin. A physi-
can then inspects each child. DIR. G. G.
Vinton was the examining physician
last year, and he examined nearly IL, 900
children, of whom about 5000 were sent
into the country. Each day the board
of health furnished list of the houses
where there was any contagious disease,
which was of immense help With that
list before him it was easy for the ex-
aminer to stop any child who came from
an infected mouse. The majority were
refused on account of their hopeless con-
dition as to vermin. 1t is herculean
task to get the average tenement house
child in suitable condition to be re-
ceived into country families Rev. Viii
