David Zweifel Swallowed a Deadly Dose
Of Strychnine.
The La Grande Chronicle says:
Saturday evening David Zweifel,
who lives ABOUT four miles northwest
of Summerville, took home with him a
keg of beer, so the report goes, and a
bottle of strychnine. While in an in
toxicated condition he told members
of the family that they would not see
him alive again, and not long there-
after he died from q dose of strychnine
which was self-administered.
The deceased was quite an aged man,
and first came to Summerville about
ten years ago. He leaves wife and
large family of children, whom he has
given no end of trouble.
The funeral took place Sunday and
was attended by a number of the
German friends Of the family from La
Grande,

along the streams or bayous, some
times throwing light ahead oAhem

"Seasons of unusual tides and floods
are best for the hunters and trappers,
for then the muskrats are forced to
leave their dwellings in spite of the
instinct they are alleged to have in
guarding against just such a calamity,
and they are compelled to seek safety
in the open country. Their hiding
places are easily found, and they are
slaughtered by day and night"

Story OF the lirlYelS.

Some ten thousand or more years
ago the conditions which had brought
about the Great Ice Age were begin
ming to change; tho elevated land
began to sink, and higher tempera-
ture slowly followed. The long win.
ter was gradually drawing to close,
and the great spring time of the world
was beginning to hasten its influence
upon an ice-covered land. Tons,
rather mountains, of ice began to
melt, and the water filled the river
valleys to overdowing; gravel, sand
and mud were borne along by these
raging waters and deposited whenever
the conditions were favorable. Ice
RATS covered the surface of the flood,
bearing rocks and boulders from more
northern lands.
All rivers which had glacial sources
were greatly inufencod by the final
melting. AS the southern part of the
ice-sheet rested over Northern
Pennsylvania, the Delaware and the
Susquehanna were typical rivers of
the age; the rocks and gravols which
line their banks show how we'll they
have kept the record.
In tho Delaware Valley brick clay
and gravel are laid out in beautiful
terraces, especially at Stroudsburg
and the Water Gap; here the waters
rose somo two hundred feet, and an
artificial dam is supposed to have
formed the river into broad lake.
The Indians, it is said, have curious
legend about this flood; they tell us
that the "Minsies" were the first race
which dwelt here, and tho region
round about they call "Minisink,
meaning that the ''waters are gone

its thousands of remarkable cures, and
the fact that it has larger sale than

The Cannon of Crlmean DAYS,

The cannon Of Crimean Days were
mounted on wooden carriages of the

to perform. With the modern gun of
more than double the weight just half

gun captain, or number one, aims and
fires, and, unassisted elevates and
trains the gun with the greatest ease
and nicely up to tht moment of firing;
the gun runs out automatically after
recoil. The only operation that re-
quires any expenditure of force Is the
actual loading of the gun, and that is
reduced to q minimum.

WISE WORDS.

A singed cat breads the cold.
Time is but freckle ON the face OF
eternity.
Economy may be as unwise as ex-
travagance.
1t is q doubtful felicity, that OF
"reverencing."
No promise is us certain rs the
thing promised.
The most merciless of all masters
is the unrelenting past.
Because woman trusts n man is no
sign that he should be trusted.
A great nature is always dign1fied
and beyond the reach of satire.
A man may win woman ON "moon-
shine" but he can't maintain her on
it.
A man never learns how to step on
the tack of adversity with comfort to
himself.
Cupid isn't any more like the pic
lures we see of him than courtship is
like marriage.
Truth is mighty and will prevail
unless superior inducements are offered
the other way.
Labor has been said to conquer all
things, but it has not been able to
sub due the tramp.
The worldly prosperity of wicked
man is chariot in which he rides to
ruin all the faster.
1t requires more work to clean q
store once month than it does to
keep it clean all the time.
Some people are not satisfied with
the horn of plenty, but they want the
hide, hoofs and tallow, also.
Money elevates many who, on
account of mediocrity, would, if not
affluent, remain in obscurity.
Let no man awe you. Nature may
in her stupendous forms; but no man
who must die and decompose as you
must.
