An Athena Man Grieves Over the Loss
nf 4RO

of $50.
Monday two Athena men by the
names of Humboldt and Navin
came to the city to have a good
time, and they had it, says the
Walla Walla Statesman. The
most of the day was spent in drink
ing, and towards evening both were
somewhat under the influence of
liquor. Mr.. Humboldt, so he states,
had about $50 on his person, and
while in a resort on Rose street
missed the money. He immediate
sly reported the matter to the po-
lice, but as he had been in numer-
Gus places and was under the in
huence of liquor, he could not give
description of the money lost or
very straight account of fwhere he
had been. The police informed him
that it would be fruitless to make
any effort to recover the money un-
less he could locate just about
where he was robbed. This he
could not do, and in fact did not
know whether the money was in
tens, twenties, gold or silver, The
partner was searched but he did
not have the money. The unlucky
man decided to give up the hunt
and return home, which he and his
partner did last night, sadder but
wiser men.

~ A very bad leak was discovered

Does Not Like the Job.

The latest from the Astoria wat
er works is that Mr.. Moody, who
took contract from Burke, Scog-
gin and Smith, Hamshaw q Behm's
bondsmen, to drive the tunnel for
$8 foot has thrown up the job.
The contractors say that there is
nothing in tho tunnel job at less
than $40 a foot. Hamshaw q
Behm contracted to build the tun-
mel at about $4 q foot, supposing
that the rock was only soft stuff
that could be removed about as
readily as dirt. That was only one

A SPECIAL MEETING.
Matter of MarshaI's Salary up But no
Action Taken.


Action Taken.
Persuant to call of Mayor Hol-
lis, the council convened in special
session Monday night. The reason
for calling the council tegather was
to reconsider the matter of the
amount of salary the marshal was
voted to receive, at the last regular
meeting, but no action was taken.
At the regular meeting Monday
evening, Oct. s, as given in the pro-
ceedings by the Press, A. M. Gillis
handed in bill for services as
city marshal and water superin-
tendent, itimized for several months
service, as such, at $500 per
month. The bill was not allowed,
but on motion of councilman Jones
the bill was cut down to $65 per
month, and carried by vote of 8
to 2.
1t has since transpired that at
the time the Office of water superin-
tendent was established, action was
taken by the council as to the
amount of salary the superintend-
ent was to receive in connection
with the Office of city marshal, and
the minutes showed the amount to
be $50 per month, for services rem
dered as city marshal and superin-
tendent of water works.
Considerable discussion was in
dulged in, but no action was taken,
and as it now stands the marshal
receives $65 per month, which in
the estimation of part of the coun-
Gil, is more than the city can afford
to pay, while on the other hand
the others think the official receives
none to much for his services.
TREAsURER's REPORT.
The treasurer's report was read
and showed the amount received
and credited to the general fund, to
be $541.45, and the amount paid
out on warrants aud interest was
$510.51, leaving balance on hand
of $30.74. The water fund showed
a total of $2,305.14, and there has

when he died was said to be worth
$3.50, 900, but in 1888 his business was
completely shattered. Greatly dis
couraged, he went to his old friend,
John Field, for advice. After lis
tening to his tale of woe Mr.. Field
broke in, whats your capital now,

Nice Place tn IlvA

1t must be pleasant living in Hon
duras, to judge by the report of
Richard Harding Davis. There is
nothing green that grows in Hon
duras," he says, that is not satu-
rated and alive with bugs and all
manner of things that creep and
crawl and sting and bite. If you
walk 20 feet into the bushes, you
have to be beaten with rods as if
you were a dusty carpet, and when
the insects have once laid their
claws on you you feel at night as if
sleeping in a bed with red pepper. "

War as n Civilizer.

Merchants undoubtedly in early
times penetrated foreign tribes and
nations and brought home in addi-
ton to their wares stories of what
they had seen and learned abroad.
But the merchants were too few, too
ignorant and prejudiced and too lit
tie given to observation to spread
much useful information in this
way, and their peoples were too self
satisfied to give up any customs and
beliefs of their own for those thus
brought them.
How, then, could any effective re-
suit from national contact be pro-
duced? In primitive times the only
effective agency must have been
that of war. Destructive as this is
in its results, it has the one useful
effect of thoroughly commingling
diverse peoples, bringing them into
the closest contact with each other
and forcing upon the attention of
each the advantages possessed by
the other. The caldron of human
society must be set boiling before its
contents can fully mingle and COM
bine. War is the furnace in which
this ebullition takes place and
through whose activity human ideas
are forced to circulate through and
through the minds of en.-Charles
Morris in Popular Science Monthly.

the Constant Watchfulness of a Rhode 70.
lander In Sleeping Car.
When the midnight mail train for
New York left the Union depot one
night recently, one of the passen-
gers was a long, lean man, with an
abundant growth of chin whiskers.
smooth upper lip and an air of
suspicion. He was evidently from
the back districts, and it was appar-
ent by his manner that he had never
before travelled in sleeping car.
Although the Providence sleeper
was waiting on a siding, where he
could easily have reached it and re-
tired for the night long before the
train started, he either did not know
this or else thought that by some
mischance the railroad men might
forget to attach the sleeper.
Il amt goin ter take no chances,
he said. I've got ter be in N'York

givin up no sech sum es they charged
me fer passage on this train.
missed Their, boat. Didn't get here
in time"
There he sat on one Of the settees
in the corner, doing off at intervals,
and waking up to make a frantic
grab at his bag, held securely be-
tween his feet, for fear that some one
might steal it, At last the train
came from Boston, the sleeper was
attached, and, after getting OH the
wrong car, he finally reached his
berth.
After leaving Providence the
lights in the Car were turned down,
and the porter started to collect the
shoes of the passengers for the pur-
pose Of backing them. The old man
had evidently been warned of the
dangers of travelling, and he was on
the lookout for confidence men and
sneak thieves of all kinds. Nothing
could be heard in the car except the
rumble of the train and the shores
of the sleepers, but when the porter
reached under the old mans berth
and pulled out pair of boots much
in need of cleaning there was an
awakening. A head was thrust out
of the curtain and the porter was
greeted with:
Put them right down, now. Put
them boots back. I was watchin We
and jist waitin ter sec of We would
try ter steal 'em. You put them
boots back, right away. knew
these fellers on the sleepin cars was
q gang or robbers, but didn't think
they'd steal mans boots. "
The porter was wise, and he put
the boots back, thinking that the
old man would go to sleep and give
him an opportunity to clean them.
He went back to the lower end of
the car, and after working away for
some time thought that tho coast
was clear and made q second at
tempt to get the boots. Just as he
got his hand ON them the head came
out again, accompanied by muscu-
lar arm, which made demonstrations
in front of the porter's face.
"What'd I tell ye about them
bootS?" demanded the old man. II
warned ye once, and I've had my
eye on We all the time. The next
time We come around here, tryin ter
get them boots, I'll give ye one on
