ExcHAkeE ECHOES.

Walter A. Wood, the well-known in
ventor and manufacturer of harvesting
machinery, is dead.
w. P. Reeser. who lives nine miles
east of this city sold twelve elk and two
deer, raised on his place, to gentleman
who is shipping them to New Jersey.
He got $500 for them. He has ten elk
left in his paddock.-Milton Eagle.
The-owner of two of the heaviest cat
tie ever seen in Kansas-two steers
weighing together S400 ponnds, has re-
fused an offer of fifty cents pound for
them, and proposes to take them to the
Worlds fair. The larger one, weighing
4040 pounds, is exactly twelve feet long,
and both stand six feet high.
A newspaper man named Burke was
frozen to death in Chicago last Thurs
day night. He was brother of the un-
der secretary for Ireland, who with
Lord Cavendish was assassinated in
Phoenix Park, Dublin, several years
ago. Newspaper men are often frozen
out on this coast, bus it doesn't kill
them. ."-Astorian.
The anarchist is haunting society in
every part of the world. Full of rum,
bomb and rebellion, he is constantly
thrusting his rude entertainments upon
those great people who give and receive
luxurious banquets and state receptions.
Several of these rough but well-meaning
fellows lately tried to amuse the British
government by blowing some of its
members out of their socks, but were
prevented from carrying out the pro-
gram. The average anarchist is not
afraid of death. He thinks his deeds
are angelic, and the worst the law can
do is to send him to heaven where
there is no soap and the streets are
paved with ombs.-KlGnGth Star.
J. G. Luckey, Indian agent at Warm
Springs is not only guardian of the In
dians property and rights, but of their
persons as well, This was quite forcibly
illustrated (upon his head) recently. A
white man an Indian were fighting at
the agency, when Mr.. Lucky ran in to
stop the fight, and received a heavy
thwack from a stick in the hands of the
white man, knocking him down, making
a severe wound on his forehead, while
the son of the forest escaped unscathed.
| Mr.. Luckey was in town Sunday and
| from the way his head was bandaged
one would think he had been an active
participant in an Irish wake. He says
the government will hereafter have to
raise his wages if he is to be used as a
target for clubs aimed at Indians heads.
Discretion is always the better part OF
valor.-Ochoco ReuieW.
The death of Cardinal Manning re-
moves great man. Such an intellect
as his rises above the clash of creeds.
No matter what church he belonged to,
his death is loss to humanity. He
was a mitered prince of the Roman
in the London slums like common
curate. He cared for nothing but the
saving of souls, and the soul OF coster-
monger was to him as precious as the
soul of a monarch. Every head in
London uncovered when he passed, in
honor of the man. With him perishes
the last of the great English cardinals
of the Catholic church. Newman, his
equal in intellect, and like him a con.
vert from the church of England, passed
away two years ago; Wiseman is dead
and only one remains, but he is dead te
the world. We refer to one who i:
doubtless forgotten to many of oul
readers-Caadinal Howard. He wa.
from one of the proudest houses in Eng
! land, that of Norfolk. His brother
Duke of Norfolk, ranks among the Eng
lish mobility. AS guardsman his was
magnificent figure, and when he re
/, sigaed and joined the church the arm,
regretted the loss of gallant officer
!, His first appearance in the rich robes o
cardinal, which set off his fine figur,
| to advantage, created sensation. III,
! was considered to be the handsomes
q man in England. A sad fate befell him
He was seized with a sudden madness
. an incurable malady, and for man,
r years the unfortunate Cardinal Howard
1 has been in seclusion in Rome.
