tnucht Two Whales aud n Wife

One OF the whalemen on the
schooner La Ninfa has a little ro-
nance. His name is Whitman Stevens
and he has been a sailor on cOasting
vessels for several years Ten months
ago he fell in love with pretty and
estimable young lady at Yaquina
Bay Stevens wanted to get married,
but his funds were low. so IT was ar
ranged between the two lovers that
William should go on a whaling cruise
and on his return the nuptial knot
should be tied.
William came down on the next
steamer, but found that sailors who
had never been on whaling voyage
were regarded as green hands; ard
that when old-timers were clamoring
for a chance to ship new man had
very little show. However Stevens
perseyered, and persuaded Capt
Worth to take him on Whitelaw's
whaler, the schooner La Ninfa. The
green hand proved the mascot of the
trip. and he killed the only two
whales taken on the voyage. TheT
were big fellows and produced $500
pounds Of bone.
Stevens has consequently come into
funds, and more funds than usually
fall to the lay of whaleman. To.
morrow he leaves on the steamer
Willamette Valley for Yaquina Bay
to get married San Francisco

Fnfauts Terrible Indeed.

In the Caucasus Mountains there
are many wild, unciviized tribes of
people whose terribly rough ways
would make the heart of civilized
mother stand still with fear if her
child were to be treated as the people
of the Caucasus treat their children
every day. The first thing that a
Caucasus baby is given for a playthinR
Is q dagger, This is presented to him
as soon as he can walk For an hour
or two each day his mother spends
her time teaching him how to use the
weapon. so that he will some day be-
come an expert He Is taught to
stab water so that it makes no splash
and is made to hurl his dagger at
mark again and again, until he can
not miss his aim. And all this is
done during the time that other boys
are spinning tops and studying
spelling book When the Caucasian
boy grows up he knows just one
thing--how to use a dagger-while
civilized boys knows-well, some OF
them know a great deal.-Danviua

A Serious Case,

Old Widow Barbara Sellers mas

She supports herself and educates
Two grandchildren on the products
of the birds, all but one OF when
contributed, either with eggs, 1eath-
crs or flesh, TO her income, says the
Toledo Blade. The exception was
goose. known to be twenty years old,
and with a possible claim to mucn
greater age, for nobody could say
when it was Matched. 1t long ago
ceased to lay, and its age protected 1t
from slaughter. After it was last
plucked. five years ago, its, feathers
did not grow again, and every WIN
ter it suffered severely from the cold.
Its companions insulted it with derl-
sive cackllng, stole its share OF the
food and occasionally assaulted it
with their broad beaks Life was
burden to it, and the other morning,
before Williamsbridgc awoke to the
fact that it was freezing hard, the
old goose died.
Mrs. Sellers is in doubt whether it
committed suicide or was murdered.
Long before daylight she was
awakened by the cackling OF her
geese, and, though it was too dark TO
see them by looking out of her bed
room window, she knew by the dIrec-
ton of the sound that they were in
and around the duck pond, a sheet
of water about three 1eet deep at
the rear Of the house. At intervals,
she says, she could hear the queru'
lous complainings of the Cd goose,
but Its voice, after being several
times cut off, at last ceases alto
gether.
At dawn Mrs. Sellers saw that the
pond was frozen over, and in the CEN
ter was an old goose with its head I'M
der the ice. The other birds we've
around it on the slippery surface,
They were watching it closely, and
had it moved they would, no doubt,
have forced it back. 1t was quite
dead, however, and Mrs Sellers
thinks the younger geese beat Its
head below the water and made 1t
stay in that position until the ice
formed around it. She admits, how
ever, that it may have grown weary
of its life and bent its neck while The
water froze it in.

A room with a good dradght Of
air through it, and with shelves al!
round the walls, made of laths OF
wood two or three inches apart, or
perforated zinc nailed on a frame
work of wood, is best for the storage
of apples. DO not let them touch
each other, and II they have air all
round them, theywill be in good con-
djtion when other fruit is rotten. Or
course they must have been carefully
picked by hand from the tree, the
bruised ones being used first. Some
varieties will keep three or four
months longer than others, ana these
should be carefully looked after. By
looking over the apples once a week,

toms of decay, the winter stock Of
fruit will amply repay care and atten-

NOVEL TRAVELLING OUTFIT.
A Cripple Driving Across the Continent
with Goat Team.

with a Goat Team.
The Butte correspondent Of the
Anaconda Standard gives the follow
ing interesting account of novel
travelling outfit now going through
Montana: "Vivian Edwards, Grip
pie from Hastings, Neb., is making
one Of the most remarkable trips
across the country that was ever I'M
idertaken. His long journey started
at Hastings just $50 days ago, and
during that time he has Travelled |, 654
miles. He is a cripple, having lost
the use of his legs, and travels In a
miniature buggy drawn by four-in1
hand of milk-white Rocky Mountain
goats, and carries a complete camping
outfit with him. The entire outfit
weighs $50 pounds, which the goats
pull with ease, and have made thirty
two miles in one day, although the
usual days journey averages from
twelve to sixteen miles, which dis
lance the goats accomplish with ease.
Some portions of his trip have been
arduous in the extreme. Between
Hams Fork and Montpelier, in Wy
oming, he took the wrong road and
was lost in the desert, and for three
DAYS suffered intensely for want OF
water. as all the water himself and
animals had was what was contained
in a beer bottle. Another time in
Southern Utah he was compelled To
fight three bears, who were deter
mined to dine off his four-in-hand,'
but after a hard fight, during which
he killed two of the bears, he was
enabled to pursue his way.
, Edwards is an intelligent fellow
and a pleasant talker and takes a
cheerful view of life, although al
most helpless. He is accompanied by
his wife and two little girls, one a
and the other years of age. His
wife, who is graduate of medicine,
takes copiOus notes Of their trip
which will be utilized in writing a
book descriptive of the sights seen
during their remarkable journey
across the continent, their objective
point being San Francisco. Edwards
states upon his arrival here tO-mor-
row he will pay visit of respect to
Sheriff Lloyd, and will drive his team
up the Court House steps into the
Sheriff's office and then down again
to the street. Edwards, who is a
very clever violinist, viii, probably

on his long trip which is surely a
plucky undertaking for one SO help

Chinese Surgery.

Like most things in China, the
practice of surgery differs considera-
bly, from thai in vogue in less en-
lightened Western countries. Bone
setting in the Celestial Empire is a
complicated affair, and doubtless
more efficacious than European meth
DDS. In setting a fractured limb the
surgeon does not attempt to bring
the bones together, but merely wraps
the limb in red clay, inserting some
strips of bamboo into the clay. These
strips are swathed in bandages, and
in the outer bandage the head of a.
live chicken is placed. Here comes in
the superior science Of the Celestial.
After the bandage has been secured
the fowl is beheaded and its blood is
allowed to penetrate the fracture, for
it nourishes the fractured limb and Is
