The supper given by the A. O. H.
and ladies of the Catholic church, at
Workman hall, on Columbus day
evening, was superb one and was
literally patronized, as it richly de-
served to be. The tables were lastly
and attractively decorated; the ladies
who waited on the tables were atten-
tive and pleasing, and spared no
pains to make it agreeable to their
guests. All who partook of the good
things provided for on the occasion
were more than satisfied with the
treatment they received.

It is hardly necessary to call the at
tention of the readers of the TRIBUNE
to the mammoth ad. of Wells Bros. &
Hanson, as it's dimensions are such
that a man with the most limited ocu
lar vision could read it. But still,
after having made an examination of
their immense stock of seasonable
goods, we feel that it is the proper
time to add our testimony as to the
great variety of goods offered to the
public by them. We must, in all
honesty, say that never have we
found in any store outside Of the big
cities so complete stock as may be
found at the store of the above wide
" known firm. With such a stock to
select from there is no necessity of
going to the cities to make purchases.
Their sales are not confined to Stevens
county. Parties from adjoining
counties are daily ordering goods or
making purchases in person.. Adver7
Using pays, and Wells Bros. & Han
son know it.

ALL RIGHT, BOYS.

Our friends of the Las Vegas Optic,
while under the influence Of the chloride
OF gold cure, or something else, published
poem from THE ADVOCATE, entitle 1
"The Promscuous Drifter," over which
they insert the line, Written for The
Optic" and underneath, put in the
signature, "Indian" It's ours, you
Williams it's ours !-Hillsboro ADVOCATE.
We didn't know it. or we wouldn't I
have done it; on our honor. The
poem was furnished The Optic in
manuscript, with the statement OF
the party furnishing 1t, that he was
the author and that it had never
been Published. By some means,
which we do not now recall, the
copy of The ADVOCATE, containing
the poem, did not attract our
attention, Hence, the ease OF our
deception. This is the more re-
markabIe, too, as the Hillsboro
ADVOCATE is one of our exchanges
which wa usually read in toto;
both because of the news 1t contains
and because OF our personal feeling
toward the editor and proprietor.

AN EXPLODED FALLACY.

1t probably never occurred to Mr..
Jerry Dawson of Goshen, New
York, when he became intoxicated
the other day that his spree was to
lead to a discovery of scientific
truth which should overthrow one
OF our venerable and picturesque
traditions. In fact, Mr.. Dawson
seems by all accounts to have fiue
and lofty scorn for scientific truth,
tradition and pretty much every
thing else save the procuring Of the
wherewithal to keep his system
reasonably well saturated with the
hot, rebellious liquids which Shake
speare warns young men against
applying to their blood.
1t seems that Mr.. Dawson, after
storing away large and varied
assortment of intoxicants, malt,
vinoas and spirituous, in his inter.
ior department, betook himself to
the shades of neighboring orchard,
where, beneath the branches OF
kindly apple tree, he fell asleep.
How long he thus remained does
not appear in the local chronicle OF
his strange experience. But when
he awoke it was to see large snake
Of the "coppeihead" variety crawl
ing over his arm and to feel the
sharp sting of the bite where the
reptile had sunk its fange into that
member.
Mr.. Dawson made his way as
speedily rs possible to the house OF
a neighbor. whose assistance he
imp.ored in counteractlng the
effect OF the poison he had received
from the bite. The neighbor,
whose first impulse was to give
Dawson coplous draught OF
whisky, saw that the man had quite
enough of that antidote in his
system already, and consequently
gave him liberal dose of good
advice Accompanied by Dawson
he went to the scene ot the occur.
renee, thinking it might turn out
that the snake WAS one of the CON-
mon and harmless sort BY the
time they got there Mr.. Dawson
WAS feeling as well as usual, aud all
effects of the poison had disap-
peared, but upon their arrival they
found the snake "a large, poison
Gus Comprehend" lying dead in
the sunshine.
This episode is a pretty hard !
knock to our tradition about the |
wisdom of the serpent. a snake |

WOMEN AS SOLDIERS.

The Hungariaa newspapers
report the death, at the age of 6a.
of Frau Marie Hoche, who had
been lieutenant in the Hungariss
war for independence and gained
medal for bravery on the feld of
battle. In l848 Marie WAS Is
years of age. She enrolled herself
in corps of volunteers without
the slightest suspicion arising a. 10
her sex. For her courage IN an
engagement, where che was badly
wounded in one foot, she wus
rewarded with iieutenant's com.
mission and decorated with medal.
Marie was afterward transferred to
a regiment OF nussars, with ths
rank OF first lieutenant. She
might have gone further in the line
OF promotion but for the chsncs
discovery OF her sex. whereupon q
major, who had long had . liking
for the brave young officer, married
her, the wedding ceremony being
performed by the regimsntaI
chaplain. After her husbsnd's
death she suffered from poverty,
hut fortunately slle attracted the
notice OF the Magyar poet, Maurus
Jokai, who pleaded her cause In
verse with such effect that sum OF
money was raised TO ease her de-
clinin. years.
The case OF Marie Hoche has
called attention to the storiea OF
other amazons, more or lose notable.
Perhaps the most remarkable case
on record was the Irish woman.
Christian Davis, Hbout the close OF
the seventeenth century. Chris
tian was married and had two soma.
Her husband was pressed into tho
army. and she was left without
means of support for he, self or her
children. She placed the little.
ones with nurse, put on a suit OF
her husbands clothes, and enlisted
by the name of christopher Welsh.
She evidently had taste for wars
and, besides conducting
herself bravely In battle. shs act
aally fought duel with sergeant.
who, OF course. ignorant OF her sex.
her as a rival tor the
affections of a young woman. She
served throughout Msrlborough's
ampaigns in regiment Of cavalry.
and was 10 the fiercest OF the fray
1t the famous battle OF Blenheim.
Being wounded at Families her
rex was discovered and she was
from the service, but
permitted to remain in the army in
he capacity ofsutler. At the con-
,lusion OF the war she presented Q
petition to Queen Anne recitiog
,er servicss, and received q con-
iderable gratuity besides q pen

The following test for genuine
diamonds is said to be effective:
Prick hole in card with a
needle and look at it closely through
the gem. If it appears as q single
hole the stone is genuine; If double,
tits glass. Pnt your finger behind
the table of the gem, and look
through it as through microscope.
you can distinguish the grain of
the skin clearly, it is glass; If not,
a stone.
