a PROPHECY FULFILLED.

a good thing cannot be reiterated too
often. The Oregonian of Nov. 9, 1892,
contained the following prophecy, and
since it's absolute fulfillment the great
Pacific coast daily has published it every
few days. Mark its fulfllment:
sThe country has decreed change of
fiscal and Industrial policy in the most
prosperous time it has ever known.
This is largely the result of the immense
foreign vote in the great cities. Chicago
carried Illinois for Cleveland as the city
of New York carries New York state for
him. The labor vote, largely foreign,
ignorant of the extent of its prosperity,
has been misled by demagogues, and
has revoited against the best conditions
it has ever known. The populist craze,
based on the same errors that has moved
the labor vote, has contributed not a
little bit to this result. A majority of
the voters have for the time put exper-
ience aside, rejected the policy under
which employment was abundant and
wages better than ever before in our his
tory and have decided, though without
equality with that of the cheap-labor
of the Old World.
@'There will be arude awakening. We
shall now have free trade policy. We
ought to have it. The country has voted
for it, and the present generation should
learn from experience what it means.
Naturally and inevitably there will be
1inidity in making investments, par
rtacularly in industrial enterprises.
Haoor generally will find the demand for
lit checked, since new establishments
will not be founded, nor old ones en-
larged, under existing uncertainties.
The election of Cleveland will carry with
it democratic majority both in the
senate and the house, and there will be
mo obstacle to legislation on the basis of
the democratic platform. 1t will be
more than one year till the new policy
'caD be formulated into law and set in
separation: neuertheIess 1t as sure that the
result of the election of yesterday a0iU be
the beginning of a period of industrial
staQnation, resulting from the tinnidity of
capitol aud uncertainty of business, and
that the consequences aOiu recoI qUith ter
ribGe force upon the tabor classes, through
anh0se Uotes chiefly the result has
been brought about. They who
know these things have but to wait
r. gretfnlly for events to come about
which they so plainly foresee."

QuEsgc.s HUNTING GROUNDS.
Plenty of Big Game to BE Had Close at


Plenty of Big Game to BE Had Close at
Hand.
Quebec is at the edge of great will
derness of forests, rivers and lakes-a
wilderness reaching all the way to the
north pole. Without doubt, says the
New York Sun, it is the nearest to big
game of any city east of the Mississip-
pi and north of Mexico. Moose and
caribou are SO close at hand that men
are willing to try for them within a
few hours OF the city, and to guarantee
the getting of them in a days journey
or less. The moose roam all over the
country south of the st. Lawrence,
and are perhaps most plentiful east of
the Maine border. The caribou field
extends all the way into and across
Labrador, there being two varieties
the wood caribou and the barren
ground caribou, the latter being the
larger beast. Visitors to the recent
carnival at Quebec were surprised at
the great number of freshly. slaugh-
tered moose and caribou then in the
city. They not only figured on the
floats in the grand procession but they
were to be found in the dwellings and
offices of the sportsmen and in the
clubs. The trout that has been
We're positively enormous. Some were
more than foot in length, and
moro than an inch thick at the thick
est part. They were not only speclzled
but their skins were suffused with a
brilliant reddish tinge. These fish
abound all around Quebec and are as
little trouble to get as any game fish
in the world. Two accompaniments of
the ordinary Wilderness cOuDtT-v were
very disappointing They were the
Indians and the Indian curiosities.
The Indians were always in evidence,
but they were more white than red,
and more French than anything else.
Ordinarily they looked and dressed
like the rest of the habitants, but
when they put on their aboriginal
toggery for the great carnival parade
part of it proved to be a most extraor-
binary headdress of short feathers.
They were turkey feathers apparent
1y, although most of the American In
dians despise the turkey as cowardly
bird unfit to eat and unworthy to be
dealt with at all. Whatever the feath-
ers were, they were arranged like
a mop, and on the heads of the
Indians they looked like the new
tangled paper lamp shades which the
women are making. These headdresses
were the only Indian curios worth
having. The beadwork sold as Huron
work is such as the Long Island farm
ers wives sell at Fulton and Washing
ton markets. Flowers were the princi-
pal designs, and flowers arc things
that the true Indian never works into
a pattern in any tribe in any part of
the country.

PRECIOUS BUGS.

How They Saved the Orange Trees or
Southern California.
Orange growers IN the San Gabriel
and San Bernardino valley tell an in
teresting story of how they destroyed
a pest which threatened the destruc-
tion of the industry in this country.
a few years ago the trees were attacked
by an insect known as scale. So rap
idly did the pest propagate that within
a few weeks the bark of the trees was
white with them. Drastic remedies
were applied, but without avail. So
serious was the outlook that many of
the growers were on the point of cut
ting down their immense groves. One
day a young man suggested a novel
plan for the speedy determination of
the pest. He said that there existed in
Australia species of lady bug which
existed on insects that cling to trees.
He received a consignment of thirty
eight of these bugs by the next steam
er. One grower who had ten thousand
trees and probably one hundred thou
sand million scale on all of them
bought eight of the precious bugs and
placed them to the best advantage in
his orchard. He tells this story:
''Three days after 1 made the expert
ment went into the grove. The trees
were as white as ever with the pest.
told my friend that thought his lady
bugs failure. He advised me to be
patient, for, he said, it was likely that
the bugs were breeding before making
their onslaught on the scale. Three
days later again visited the orchard
and found the trees as clean as a
whistle. Not one of the insects was
visible. Neither were the lady bugs.
Having finished their work they flew
away and have not seen them since.
More bugs We're released in other
orchards and in the course of a month
there was not an orange tree in the
valleylaflicted by the pest. We now
keep stock of the bugs in hand SO
tina t in case the scale returns we'll be
ready to fight it again. The bugs sell
for twenty-five dollars apiece. But
they are worth that money and more,
too, for they have saved every orange
tree in the country

Queer Uses of Fans.

There are many curious uses of fans
in Japan. The umpire at wrestling
and fencing matches uses heavy one,
shaped like huge butterfly, the han
die being the body, and rendered inn
posing by heavy cords of silk. The
various motions of the fan constitute a
language which the wrestlers fully un-
derstand and appreciate. Formerly in
the time of war the Japanese comman-
der used large fan, having a frame of
iron covered with thick paper. In
case of charge it could be shut, and a
blew from its iron bones was no light
affair One notable variety of fan is
made of waterproof paper, which can
be dipped in water, and creates great
GOODNESS by evaporation, without wet
ting the clothes. The fiat fan, made
of rough paper, is often used as grain
winnow, to blow the charcoal fires and
as a dustpan.

Danger in Perfumery.

Women who are fond of indulging in
strong perfumes should remember that
they are decidedly injurious to the
sense of smell. By their frequent use
the secretory glands of the nose and
throat are overtaxed and weakened.
One day a person notices that the
hearing is less active than usual and
the sense of smell seems defective.
This is. of course, put down to cold,
and but little is thought of it. After
Il time the entire head becomes affected
and there are throat and lung compli-
cations which are likely to end in
chronic, if not fatal illness. Smelling
salts are a prolific cause of deafness.
All strong and pungent odors, particu-
larly those which act upon the secre-
tory processes, should be avoided as
far as possible.

OLD MOSINEE TOM

Copyright, 1894, by Bachelor, johnson Bacheller
In the late ffties the Wisconsin valley
above Portage was a wilderness. The lum-
bermen who trailed their way up the river
passed through tamarack swamps so thick
over dry ridges clothed with splendid pine
inestimable value.
Old Mosinee mountain rose out Of the
wide. green reach Of the valley, dark with
his robe Of pines. All about was forest
land, untouched by the ak, almost untra-
versed by the pioneers restless foot.
But year by year the loggers pushed
northward, seeking points where the pine
trees could be felled into the river. or
where sideways could be constructed to
make hauling unnecessary. The whole river
had been ransacked and every favorable
river point stripped of its timber before the
movement back into the forest began.
From short hauls and heavy timber the
movement was toward long hauls and
smaller timber. Each year the attack Wild
ened as we'll as heightened its battle line
against the pines.
Two young boys from La Crosse county
in 1859 pushed up the river to "Ginny Bull
falls" and being attracted by old Mosinee
mountain planted their camp at its foot and
set about preparations for winter. They
were beyond any other camp so far as they
knew, and when they blazed out trail In
September they had before them a great
deal of stern labor.
They had hay to cut in the marshes, wood
to clear out and shanties to build. They
were sturdy young fellows. Of that indom-
liable sort raised up In America to do such
work in face Of everything.
Holland was q bridegroom OF only three
months duration. and his wife was expect
ed to be the cook for the camp when the
SHOWS came and work of logging actually
began. He was a tall. young fellow. with
a broad, fiat, but powerful chest, very erect
and active.
