The Child In the Basket,

The vigilance of an old time customs
official, it may be said, came perhaps
within an ace of changing the course Of
French history. One day y mother who
had been to q country house near Mar
settles returned with her son to Mar
settles. 1t was twilight The child, 8
years old, had been put in peach bas-
ket borne by donkey, and the mother,
fearing the child might take cold-it
was in November-had covered the boy
with thick brown shawl. Tired with
running around the country all day,
coy and warm under the thick shawl,
the child was soon asleep and hidden by
the sides of the basket. When the city
gates were neared, the mother forget
ting all about the child, walked dis
lance behind the donkey and did not
make him stop at the custom house to
be searched. The customs officer, seeing
the donkey jog on without stopping,
suspected that he was laden with SNUG
gled goods and ran after him to thrust
his sharp steel probe through the bas-
ket. Luckily the mother observed him,
ran forward and screamed: Don't use
your probe. My child is in the basket. +"
The child was Adolphe Theirs New
York World.

Tho Game of DOminos.

The inventors of the game of domi-
nos were two monks at Monte Casino.
One day the inmates of the convent
were Oh the lookout for method OF be-
quilting their leisure moments without
transgressing the rule of silence to
which they were subject. Two of their
number hit upon the device of playing
with square stones covered with dots.
which they showed to each other and
combined in a certain order agreed upon.
The winner communicated the result to
his partner by pronouncing in o low
voice the lines of the vespers, which
commerce as follows, 'Dixit Dominus
domino meo." The new game soon
sprang into favor and was admitted to
the rank of lawful recreations 1t be-
camo popular outside the monastery
walls, but the people, with their scanty
knowledge Of Latin, simplified the mo-
nastic formula, only retaining tho word
domino, by which the same was after
ward entitled. Monde Picturesque.

Judging from the attitude of two
great political parties in North Dakota,
woman suffrage promises to soon be-
come an issue that will stir up all the
latent enthusiasm which womankind is
capable of exercising upon so important
topic. The state constitution provides
that the Legislature may at any time
submit this question to the electors, to
be decided by majority vote, and it is
not unlikely that such action will be
taken at the next session of the law
making body. Western Womanhood.

The man who goes out to meet
trouble will have a short walk.

Rev. Sam. Small, the wandering evangelist,
has settled down to work in Norfolk, Va,
where be issues small newspaper which ap
pears every morning except Monday and
every evening except Sunday. Rev. Dr. Small
is undoubtedly hustler, whether on the plat
form or the tripod. Heshows by his present oc-
.cupation that evangelization can be wrought
by the pen as well az by the mouth. Perhaps
his written phrases are not always as start
ling to the reverential mind as his spoken
sentences, but little culture along with a
good deal of gospel does not make an objec-
tionable compound even down South.

0regOn's Big Red Apple.

Among the many resources upon
Oregon must rely for future pros
perity there is none of more conse-
quence, not even her gold and sill
yer mines, than Oregon's big red
apple. The Importance of Oregon
as fruit growing state is not yet
appreciated by her own people, but
the time is close at hand when they
will. 1t is becoming more and more
apparent every day that we must
give more attention to the develop
rnent ofour own resources and must
rely more on local effort. We say
it without intending to be offensive
to any one that heretofore there has
been too much of the practice here
that was described by the Florida
boy when visitor asked him how
they managed to live in that coun-
try. "On fish and strangers" was
the curt reply of the youth. We
have have had too much specula-
tion, too much lending OF money at
extottionate rates, and too many
devices for making a living without
earning it. Now we want to get
down to good, honest work in de-
veloping the resources with which
nature has SO bountifully supplied
Our state.
And of all the Oregon products
that will have permanent and con-
stantly growing value there is none
Of more Importance than her big
apple. 1t will be marketable when
there is no demand for cereals, and
when it will not even pay to raise
wheat-fattened pork. Oregon is Pc
culiarly the apple zone of the trans
Rocky mountain region. Wegrow
other fruits, and fruits that never
fail, but they are grown elsewhere
on the Pacific coast. But Oregon
has no rival territory in growing
apples. And the apple is just as
staple a product as the potato.
There is always a demand for it,
and it must be had regardless ofthe
price. 1t is something that is al
ways safable in the home market,
and almost every year there is a
foreign demand for it on account CT
the failure of the apple crop in the
Eastern states. Let us give the
Oregon big red apple boost,

one a IS national bank note and
the other a counterfeit $40 United
States silver certificate. The
national bank note counterfeit is on
the Fifth National bank of Cincin-
natti, check "a" series of 1902,
and is calculated to deceive those
who do not give money careful
scrutiny. The $Io silver certificate
is Of the series of 1886, check letter
a." and is a poorly executed
photo-etched production, much of
the wording is undecipherable, and
the face Of the note is blurred, while
the shading around the letters is in
black, instead Of fine lines, and the
note should be detected at a glance.

A Portland firm of warrant brok-
ers bought the greater part Of the
recent issue OF county warrants for
e2 cents on the dollar. This speaks
volumns for the county. 1t indi-
Gates that as the resources and
liabilities of Lincoln county be-
come known, men Of capital have
confidence in it. A long step to-
ward the placing of the county in
to a better condition, as far as the
sale of her warrants are concerned,
was the consummation Of a COM
plete settlement with Benton coun-
ty, and cessation of all expensive
litigation between them. 1t might
now be said that Lincoln county
now has her resources in sight.
There is no uncertainty as what
she will or will not receive from
Benton county. All delinquent
taxes are due her, and thousands
Of dollars Of them are collectable.
And what is greater than all is
that by the practice of prudent
economy the amount of taxes
actually collected exceeds the ordi.
nary running expenses of the
county. The result Of this will
soon be the redemption of every
outstanding county warrant and
the payment Of warrants dollar for
dollar by the county treasurer,
when presented.
