ing that one mine had produced at ID
cents an ounce, another at "a cents.
The silver mines would not have con
continued to mine silver at q cost Of
g per ounce when the product was
worth only go cents.
Mr.. Harvey, in turn, said that what
Mr.. Horr had said about the cost OF
producing silver, he could have said
with much more force with regard to
gold. Silver was only produced from
quartz; most Of the gold was produced
from placer mines. It cost less, dol
lar for dollar, to produce gold than
silver. He read from q book by Alex
Delmar, an opinion, that pound for
pound, It cost more to produce silver
than gold, or, dollar for dollar, sixteen
to one. Why did men continue to
mine silver at q loss; why did men
gamble on the board of trade, where q
large majority lost? It was the gam
bling instinct implanted In the human
breast. Another thing, much OF the
silver produced was produced In con-
junction with gold mining, and q large
proportion Of the silver products was
the result Of attempts to develop
mines which proved failures In the
end and the losers were disposing Of
their output to try to ave something
out Of the wreck. There were, he
declared, only three or four silver
mines In operation In tho country and
they were having q ~precarious exist
ence, liable to close any week.
Mr.. Harvey than denounced Mr.
Scudder O. = tool Of the banking In

to defame his nation.

Impaled on a Picket.

The 9-year-old son of Loren Hoyt, who
lives on the Milwaukee road, near the
Brooklyn schoolhouse, met with fear
full accident Saturday evening, at his
home, and narrowly escaped being killed.
He was wa liking on the picket fence near
the house when he made misstep and
fell, his throat catching on the pointed
end of picket. The sharp end entered
the right side of the throat and cut a
fearful cash straight across. It looked
as if the cut had been made by a sharp
knife. The picket penetrated SO deeply
through the throat into the mouth that
one of the boys teeth was knocked out.
DIR. Dave Raffety was quickly sum-
moned, and he sewed up the rent, a
number of stitches being required. The
boy had very close call. Had he fallen
directly on the picket, he would proba-
bly, haYe been killed.-Oregonian.

Northwest Fruit Growers to Meet.

The Northwest Fruit Growing Associa-
ton and the Oregon State Horticultural
Society will hold their annual meeting
at the city of Portland, commencing
Wednesday, February 9Th, 1895.
The Northern Pacific, the Oregon Rail-
way & Navigation Company and the
Great Northern, have agreed for full
fare going and one-ffth fare returning.
Tickets must be purchased within three
days of the time of holding the conven-
tion. To obtain the reduced rate on re-
turn the purchaser must obtain from the
agent certificate that he purchased
such ticket for the purpose of attending
said convention. He must also receive
certificate from secretary of the said
convention that he attended the same.
On presenting these certificates to the
agents of these roads at Portland he will
receive his return ticket for one-fifth of
the regular fare.
It is hoped that there will be a large
attendance from all parts of the North
west, also that there will be every effort
made to secure a good display of the
asked to contribute.
The intention is to organize and har-
monize the fruit-growing interests of the
entire Northwest-Idaho, Washington,
Oregon and British Columbia-in the
best manner and invite full discussion of
all questions involved. The meeting
will be made valuable and instructive
by practical discussion of many topics
involved in horticulture, and the advan-
tages of every section of this broad
Northwest will be explained by repre-
sentative men present.
1t was hoped to secure the presence of
the American Pathological Society in
full force, but while disappointed in
this, we yet have assurance from Mr..
Brackett, the secretary, and other dis
tinguished pomologists from the East,
that they will remain on this coast and
intend to be present at our convention
to read valuable papers and take part in
our discussions.
The fruit growers of the Northwest
will be here in great mum bers and are
abundantly able to lend interest to the
discussion of all questions that will come
before them.
To obtain the reduced return rate ii
will be necessary to comply strictly with
the conditions stated.

A Letter From Jane. the Cook.

"Jane (the Cook" wishes to inform
your readers of some particular things
which she experienced in early life,
When Jane was quite young she had
a sweetheart who called himself "Rash-
full Cornelius" and baShful he was.
This sweetheart seemed to be very
fond Of James company after he got q
start talking to her; but the next thing
was, how did he ever sum up the colr-
age to talk to her? Jane will explain
that.
One Sunday morning Jane thought
she would go to Sunday School. 1t was
the only place she had not been, and she
wanted to learn how to behave herself;
and what was more pleasing thought,
she might get a sweetheart.
Bright and early Sunday morning,
Jane appeared dressed in her beautiful
blue serge, trimmed in water-waved silk,
with parasol and gloves to match, her
slippers being of reddish tan. You
may know her first thought was, some
one will surely think me beautiful.
AS Jane walked along, wondering who
that VS0ne" would be, she noticed a
| yOuHS LHuu NOAAiuB VuWblu ncls ulc
young man appeared very handsome
but when the two met he did not speak
and Jane found, To- her astonishment
that he was bashful--even too bashfu
To look at her. and she thought, I'll smile
at him; perhaps he will see me by side
glance; so she smiled sweetly and passed
ON. Jane never saw any more of thi!
young man for quite awhile. Afte
awhile Jane became anxious TO know
something more Of the young man, ever
If he was bashful
She decided TO go to Sunday Schoo
again, thinking she might get to see him
and perhaps get to speak to him again
Sunday morning came and Jane appear
ed dressed in her beautiful hluo and JUS
as she was starting, the young man ais
came alopgi both were going to the sam
plaoe, hut neither one knew the other
destination. The young man, or "Bash
full Cornelius, as we must now call him
managed TO use his tongue very wei
but he kept himself in the rear all th
while, and especially when they cam
near the church.
"Bashful OOrneiinS" asked Jane If sh
was going 10 stay for preaching an
she told him she was, and he said, Il al
too"
. Jane thought the preacher proache
J long time, but she enjoyed the sermon
, for he preached about shaving peop
! with Caesars red-hot razor, and she dl
, wish he would shave ''Bashful Cornelius
while he was shaving, and she decide
to tell the young man so, If he did ~

When church was dismissed, jar

LACK OF EASE IN CONVERSATION.
How to Remedy This Lack Of Ease by
Practice IN the Home Circle.

There is one great reason for this lack
OF conversational power; in too many
cases the art Is never practiced inside
the home circle, writes Louise Boyle in
the August Ladies' Home journal No
attempt at pleasant converse is ever
made save when visitors are preSent;the
various members of the family may
gossip little, or discuss purely personal
affairs, but they make no attempt at en-
tertaining talk. In point of fact, the
art OF conversation is like a game of
battled0or and shuttlecock, one needs
the quickness and dexterity of constant
practice. In many busy households the
only general gathering of the family is
at mealtime-a time above all others
when worry should be banished, If only
for the sake of physical comfort. Yet
this is the very time when the mother
will complain of domestic worry, the
father of business cares, and the daugh-
ters of shabby frOcks.
All this should be changed it ought to
be rule in all households that disagree
ables are to be banished at mealtime. If
complaints must be made let them come
at proper time, but do not imperil
your digestion by eating while you are in
an irritated and discOntented frame Of
mind. Pleasant talk relieved by an oc-
casional laugh will be more beneficial
than pounds of pills. In the household
there should not only be an avoidance Of
unpleasant topics, butan attempt to find
agreeable ones. Each member of the
family should come to the table prepared
to say something pleasant. Any bright
little story or merry joke, or any bit of
worlds news that will loosen the tongues
and cause animated talk-how it will in
crease the brightness of the working
day. There need be no profound dis
cusSion-it should be just lively touch
and go talk.
