GOLDENDALE 1885 is a bay
stallion with black points, foaled in
1891, and in point Of individuality is
an animal qualified to stand the high
est test, having the size, finish and
conformation most sought for in
horses of his class. His breeding is
exceptionally high. Altamont, his
sire. is not only the most prepotent
stallion that ever stood in the North
Pacific country, but he is one Of the
best sons of Almont, having rs per-
formers to his credit, and all race
horses of the best type. Almont 33
is by long odds the best grandson of
Hambletonian 10, and no sire that
ever lived is breeding no more unifor-
mly through his progeny than he.
On the maternal side Goldendale gets
the strong Knox and Morgan blood
that figures prominently in some of
the msst sensational horses of the
present time. Goldendale:s maternal
grandsire was Gen. Knox 140, who
not only sired large family of per-
formers, but who got among others
tina fast mare Lady Maud, 2:lS1, that
produced the world beating colt
Monbars 2:16H, as two-year old,
and 2:l1a as a three-year old. Gold
endale's pedigree will thus be seen
strong and symmetrical at all points.

putation Of his illustrious ancestors.
GAYO, 1902, dapple Bay, 16a hands
high, weight 1900 pounds. This
Royal Bred Colt when 3 years old
won a race in 2:3S without much
training. His large size and stately
appeasance should make his services
IN great demand with those who wish
TO breed Gentlemen's Drivers and
Fancy Matched Teams, and need on
y be seen to be appreciated.
ROM 1853, light bay Is hands

Another name added to the long
list Of the departed. True his
death teaches that sooner or later
we must all make that journey
across the mystic river. The
angel called and in the ways of an
all-wise Providence it was best
that he should go.
Shed not for him the bitter tear,
Nor give the heart to vain regret;
Tis but the casket that lies here,
The gem that fills it sparkles yet.
Ere sin could harm or sorrow fade.
Death came with friendly care; .-,.
The open bud to heaven conveyed,
And bad it blossom there.
This lovely bud so young, so fair,
Called hence by early doom; ..E
just came to show how sweet flower
In Paradise could bloom ssss
To us for five short anxious months,
His infant smile was given,
And then he bade farewell to earth
And went to livein heaven. ...
Tis a little grave but o, have care,
For world wide hopes are buried there;
How much OF light. how much of joy,
Is buried with our darling boy
jessie, yes our darling Jessie,
Closed his eyes at break Of day;
And while friends stood weeping DER him
His young spirit passed away. H

New Papers Starting Up.

A large number of new Prohibition pa
pers are being established in various
parts of the nation through the means of
the Prohibition plate service that is be-
ing issued every week by the National
Prohibition Press Bureau, Scranton, Pa.
1t is now possible for every county to
have at least a monthly paper. More
Prohibition papers will mean stronger
Prohibition sentiment and better sup

WRITING FOR THE PRESS.
A Few Simple Rules That Every Corre-
spOndent Should Observe.

spOndent Should Observe.
TALLIE MORGAN.
Use white paper, note size.
Begin your writing three or four inches
down the first page to give room for
heading, date, etc.
Number your pages.
Write names of persons and places
very plainly.
Don't use abbreviations. Spell out
every word.
If you do not wish your name to ap-
pear with the article, say so.
If you desire the article returned in
case it is not used, always inclose stamps.
If column article is cut down to four
lines, or if it is consigned to the waste
basket, don't get angry and forever there
after hold grudge against the editor.
Remember that he receives enough to
fill four or five papers every time, and
that some have to be cut out. Keep
sweet and send again.
Don't mix up business in your letters
for the paper. If you must send letters
for the editor and the business Office in
the same letter, write on separate sheets.
Don't send in ''news" two or three
weeks old. Report everything promptly
and give the news without lengthy opin-
ions.
All matter intended for the paper
should be addressed ''To the Editor of
The -" and not to any certain person.
If the letter is personal one for the ed
itor, address 1t so.
If these simple rules are followed, the
editor can get along with considerable
less daily grace than he usually requires
to retain his hope of heaven.

Rev. Dr. T. De Witt Talmage, in the
New York Observer, presents the fol-
lowing:
FIVE ACTS OF THE RUM TRAGEDY.
Act I-Young man starting from
home. Parents and sisters weeping to
have him 60 Wagon passes over the
hills. Farewell kiss thrown back. Ring
the bell and let the curtain drop.
Act u-Marriage altar. Bright
lights Full organ played. White veil
trailing through the aisle Prayer and
congratulations and exclamations of
"How we'll she looksn' Ring the bell
and let the curtain drop
Act III--Midnight. Woman waiting
for staggering steps. Old garments
stuck into the broken window pane
Many marks of hardship on the face.
Biting the nails of bloodless fingers.
Neglect, cruelty, disgrace. Ring the
bell and let the curtain drop.
Act IV-Three graves in very dark
place. Grave of a child who died from
lack of medicine. Grave of wife who
died of broken heart. Grave of hus-
band and father who died of dissipation.
Plenty Of weeds, but no flowers. Oh,
what blasted heath with three graves!
Ring the bell and let the curtain drop.
Act VA destroyed souls eternity!
No light, no music, no hope! Despair
coiling around the heart with unuttera-
BILE anguish. Blackness of darkness for

bitionist. He believes that the Prohibi-
ton party should concentrate its fight
ing force on the saloon and leave all
other issues alone for the present. He
charges the Christian people of the ma:
tion as being responsible for the legaliza-
ton and continution of the saloon, as
they have the power at the ballot box to
pass a prohibitory law and to elect the
officers to enforce the law. He tells
what he means in plain language, but in
such manner that never offends. His
readers know that he is honest in his
views, and though they differ with him
they will read his articles.
