James A. Garfield's faii From q
Canal Boat Had This Result.

James A. GarficId's Fai; From n
Canal Beat Had This Result.
From William NJ. Thayer's Book: 1t
was tumbling overheard from o canal
boat and a miraculous escape by shin
ming up rope that changed the destiny
OF James A. Garfield, twentieth president
OF the United States. As the world
knows, Garfield, like Lincoln, was born
amid distressing poverty. His father
died when he was eighteen months old,
leaving besides himself, three other chill
dren for the impoverished widow to oup-
port and rear. At an early age he was
compelled to work at the huGblest toll to
help provide food and clothing for the
family. He engaged in various occupa-
tons that boy could find and finally,
when about sixteen years old, he con-
ceived an overwhelming desire to become
sailor. This his mother would not
listen to, and long and frequent were the
controversies on the subject. Finally he
was so importunate that his mot her,
| from pure sense of WEAKNESS, consented
that he make one voyage on the lakes,
believing that one voyage with it's kicks
| and cuffs and attendant hardships would
cure her son OF his nautical ambitio n.
Young Garfield thereLpon went to Cleve-
land and sought to enlist on lake YES
sci. In this, to his great disappointment.
he was unsuccessful. But he did find q
semi-nautical berth as driver of mules on
the canal boat Evening Star, commanded
by his cousin. Capt. Amos Letcher. He
remained at this work two months and
was very efficient. During this period
he fell overheard no less than fourteen
times, the last timebeing saved only by q
| miracle.
1t was a dark, stormy night, and Gar
| field, who had been promoted from the
towp ath, had been called to man line
which was to steady the boat into lock-
In the darkness he tripped and went
overheard. He was the only person on
deck, SO nobody witnessed the affair
The youth struck out and suddenly his
hand touched a rope that was trailing as
tern. Fortunately the rope had kink in
it, which had got jammed in the hawse
pipe, and this enabled the boy to climb
to the deck hand over hand
But his wetting gave him a severe cold
which took such threatening proportions
that he had to 90 home and be nursed
through long illness. During this his
mother never ceased to pray that her son
might be preserved to achieve greater
things than could come from a sailors
life, and God answered her prayers.
When the young man recovered he show
ed no desire to go back to his canal boat
occupation, but willingly accepted the
advice of his mother and friends to enter
upon the course Of study which eventu.

reers 10 American history.

been sent by them to Honolulu and 9th.
or towns on the several Sandwich islands,
making a total of about 5000 ami.
mails they have cold to the Knnakas.
No large shipments are made, usually
one or two cars at time, but they keep
them going steadily and have a regular
business worked up among the island
ers. These horses are mostly sold to the
planters, whose lands are too valuable
for sugar cane and such products to al
low the raising OF hay and feed necces-
sary in raising horses by breeding. L.
q. Powell does all the buying, and his
brother does the selling on the islands.
Their plan has always been TO keep
themselves advertised all through the
islands as horse comm ssion dealers.
The member Of the firm who does the
Honolulu end of the business takes or
ders from the planters for so many
teams OF work horses. the prospective
buyers describing exactly as possible the
kind Of animals wanted. These orders
are put on the books OF the firm, and,
when a horse is seen which will Ill any
OF the orders, il is bought and kept until
enough others are secured to make
shipment. These horses are then put on
shipboard, paying the cost OF purchase
here, plus the cost of transportation and
$40 commission. II any horse dies en-
route, his cost is charged up pro rata
against the others in the lot, and so the
Powells can not come out behind on any
shipments. Each buyer on the island is
given the name OF the man from whom
the horses are purchased, and can then,
II he desires, write and find out II he has
been fairly dealt with. The comm ission
is small, but 1t gives them a nice margin
OF profit during the year and enables
them to count on the trade as a regular
thing.

A Man who 10 Not Now Composed OF
HIS Original Parts.

An odd character is now in Winona,
Mimi, being that of George Burns, who
has good reason for his eccentricity. He
has papers which show that he was head
engineer on the steamer City of Saysn-
nah, which was wrecked on the coast Of
Massachusetts on January Is, 1884, while
enroute from Boston to Florida. He was
reversing the levers when the steamer
struck the rocks, and be was thrown into
the machinery, receiving injuries which
crippled him for life There were lis
lives lost in the accident, and Burns lie

long time while he lay on cot 10 the

VENEZUELA VS.. DUCKS.


The long expected and important Off
cial communication from Lord Salisbury,
with reference to British aggressions on
the South American continent, has been
received in Washington, but Mr.. Cleve-
land is off on duck hunting expedition
and the communication cannot be opened
until his return. Both honses OF Con-
gress and both political parties are anx.
iously awaiting that exact information
upon which largely depends the mainte-
nance of the national dignity, the enforce
ment of the Monroe doctrine and even
the independence of Venezuela. From the
White House news is given out that the
president has been so exhausted by the
fatiguing labors of preparing his message
that weeks recreation OF duck shooting
was rendered absolutely necessary.
This is state Of affairs to which it is
not easy to find parallel. 1t is more
probable, however, that it was not 80

intention to show that he resented the

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT

The management takes pleasure in
announcing that from this date the price
OF The HERALD will be 81 per year, strict.
IN ia ddUdnce. This step has been under
consideration for some time and the con.
clusion has been reached that through
an increase in circulation and reduction
OF losses to the minimum the difference
will be more than equalized. All delin-
quent subscriptions and all subscriptions
not paid in advance will continue to be
charged at the old rate Of 81. 1t is to be
hoped that this concession TO the pre-
vailing conditions and the pockets OF the
people will be promptly met by the Sc
curing OF hundreds of new subscribers
and the balancing of the old accounts.
The HERALD has been published for
over eight years. II has constantly
labored to advance the interests OF town
and county, and its record entities it to
the public confidence. It's policy of the
past to have first in view the upbuilding
Of Yakima will be continued in the future,
while at the same time it will endeavor to
present the local and general news Of the
day, in reliable and pleasing form. The
change in price is purely business prop
osition and we believe it will prove as
beneficial to the paper as it should be
acceptable to it's subscribers.
