Home From Brazil

Rev. Frank Spalding, at one time
presiding elder of this district, &C.
companied by his family, has returned
from Brazil, and will henceforth reside
somewhere in the United States. Mr..
Spaulding went to Brazil as mission
ary about four years ago, and has been
laboring in that field until recently.
Mr.. and Mrs. Spaulding reached New
York on the 18th of the present month,
and at once started for their old home
in Oregon. Mr.. Spaulding arrived
here this morning, while Mrs. Spauld-
ing stopped at Columbus. AS yet Mr..
Spaulding has not determined where
he will locate, though will no doubt be
assigned to some place by the confer
ence, at all events he will not return
TO Brazil, the climate there having
proven very injurious to his health.

The Objection not Good

There are people who have objection
to advertising matter in the reading
colums ofa newspaper. The ground of
objection is that they don't want to read
advertisements. Now this objection
ID not good, for often times advertise.

For instance, how else would the
travelling public learn of the excellent
dining car service of the Wisconsin
Central Lines between St. Paul and
Chicago, or the general comfort of
travelling over this popular line. For

Where Did They Come From?

George Krauss has been digging a
we'll near the end of the Oregon Lum-
Der Co.'S. floom, and at the depth of 40
feet discovered lot of human bones
and teeth deposited IN bed of gravel.
Sinking the well to depth of so feet
he encountered another bed OF gravel
in which were more bones and teeth.
This discovery leads one to inquire
where the bones came from, and what
sort of people did they belong to. The
formations in which they were found
evidently had not been disturbed for
centuries, and the people whose re.
mains were thus discovered must have
lived when the Columbia river was
little riyulet and Mt. Hood molehill

There is still an immense quantity
OF snow in the Blue mountains, enough
to cause a considerable rise in the
Columbia, says Hon. B. :. Huntington,
who returned this morning from Baker
City. There is still considerable snow
on the foothills in the vicinity of Baker,
and few miles to the south in the
mountains it is 25 feet deep. Three
inches of snow fell on the summit of
the Blue mountains yesterday on the
liue of the railroad.

FISHING With DOGS.
Unique Method of Capturing Salmon Us
by the Anus.


by the Ainus.
The savages of Saghalin island have
a unique method of fishing for salmon
trout with their dogs, description OF
which is given in ''Trans-Siberian Saw
ages" The water around the island
is wonderfully clear. The author, who
went out in a canoe, says the bottom
was distinctly visible, while from
under the canoe the frightened salmon
trout were swimming seaward in such
numbers it seemed as if it would be
difficult to drop a stone into the water
without striking one.
From the time we started I was
puzzled to guess what the Ainus could
be taking thirty dogs with them for.
/ was soon to find out. At certain
point all the men and dogs came to n
halt. Half the men and dogs then
moved farther along the waters edge
about two hundred yards.
AT concerted signal the dogs were
started from their respective points
and swan straight out seaward in
single file in two columns. At a wild.
sharp cry from all the Anus the right
column wheeled left and the left col
umn wheeled right until the head OF
each column met. Then at another
signal all of them swan in line toward
the shore, advancing more and more in
crescentic formation.
As the dogs neared the shore in
creasing numbers of fish appeared in
the shallow water, frightened forward
by the splashing of the advancing col
umn of dogs. which, as soon as their
feet touched bottom, pounced upon
the fishes as quick as flash.
The animals promptly brought the
fish which they had seized to their
masters, who cut off their heads and
gave each dog the head which be-
longed to him as his share of the catch.
The dog who caught nothing got moth
ing.
believe this dog drill of the Anus
is entirely unique. 1t is all the more
remarkable, too, as the dogs, many of
which have been captured from the
forest, are still half wild.

Nowhere in the world, outside
OF Utah, can be witnessed such a
gathering as that at the Union
Hotel on Friday night. No such
a gathering of equal numbers
composed of men who have seen
so much of the world and who
know so much about the various
countries and people. They have
not seen simply what appears on
the surface and is seen by the reg
ular tourist but have lived and
mingled with all classes of people
and saw conditions as they really
exist. These men have returned
to their mountain homes and the
valuable lessons learned abroad
can be used for the advancement
of our country and with this in
our favor we should advance in all
lines more rapidly than any peo-
pie on earth.

Champ Clark Of Missouri Is not only
one Of the wittiest men in the house of
Representatives. but he Is one Of the
best posted ON the tariff question.
In ridiculing some Of the rates of the
Dingley bill that to him seemed subject
TO criticism, he recited how q man Of
the name Of Goodyear went before the
ways and means committee and secured
the tariff he wanted by some slillfui
palaver about the great statesmen that
Maine had produced. Then he said:
''Mr. Chairman, that piece Of soft
soap made il harder for every poor
man in the United States TO build q
house. Governor Dingley swallowed the
bait as quick as trout would swallow
fly [laus,hterl. and next summer some
poor devil out west, living in dugout
100 miles from q railroad station, who
voted for Mckinley under the deluded
idea that prosperity would come under
his administration and who has not
heard of this tariff bill. ciphers it out
that he can build him two room cot
tage with lumber and other building
materials at the old rate. He goes to the
station to get the lumber and finds that
the price has gone sky high, and be goes
back to his home and says to his wife:
My dear, am sorry that we must stay
In the dugout We cannot build our lit
tie house A great man by the name Of
Governor Dingley has put the price Of
lsimber and other things SO high that
we cannot do it, but. thank God. no
has left dragons blood free. Laughter.
Next year, when my handsome friend
from Iowa (Mr. Dolliver) returns to
that fine agricultural district which he
represents. some man who has not been
able to buy coat because of the high
price Of wooden cloth will say TO his
neighbor. There comes Dolliver, who
