Terse Truths.

Work wins.
Quietness bespeaks worth.
Only the spent life is saved.
A mastered body marks a master.
Only the battle can prove the
brave.
Empty words return filed with
sorrow,
A lamp lighted too soon burns
out whom it is needed.
There is no sure foundation for
the ladder OF selfish ambition.
Who seeks a perfect friend
among men will walk alone through
life.
Duty and success have been
joined together by God, aud no
man can put them assunder.

S. Perry Denney who spent a
few months in Elbert the past
winter for his health died at his
home in Carrollton, Ohio, Friday,
Feb. 25th, aged % years. His
death though expected for some
time was shock to his many
friends here. For about year Ire

hoped to baffic by change of
climate, but came too late. AL
though i'll feeble condition when
in Ebert, he seemed, hopeful and
his friends Thought he might
possibly regain his health, but
when they saw there was no hope
for him he was advised TO return
to Ohio.
Mr.. Denpey at the time of his
deati, was rreasuIcr of Carr II

of the confidence placed in him.

THE GREAT RENEFIrS OF
ARTIFICIAL PROPAGATION,
Packers Shuld Make Liberal Display
at Portland Exposition TO Assist
the New Fish Bill

As was 20 have been expected. the pre-
mature publication ot the artificial propa'
CATION fish bill has brought forth OBJ
jectlon from certain quarters. The Usher
les committee of the Progressive Com
mcrclal Association had not completed
the bill and Its publication was unauthor.
iEcd by the committee, The bill as
published Is not as Il Il will be presented
TO the legislature, and the opposition tnat
has already developed. while OF no consc'
qucnce may have the eject of seriously

an Ak 10 grind will now set forth his OBJ
ject.ons. and anyone who might be pos
sesscd ol a desire to inluro Astoria can air
his opinions In some ot the city papers
This was the substance ot a statement

The measure. he said. was drawn up Tor
revision. and Is not In It's present state
ready for presentation 20 the legislature.
Great care Is being exercised by the
fisheries committee 20 see that the matter
OF propagation and protecting salmon Is
properly covered. and IL Is likely many
changes will be made In the bill as II now
stands
Speaking of the proposed exhibit al the
Portland exposition. Fish Commissioner
Mcclure said a liberal display from the
packers would do much Tor the Industry,
both In advertising Il and In securing the
passage ot the propagation bill. He sug-
gests that plaeards be posted near the
display. explaining briefly the extcnt OF
the Industry and the Importance OF the
states aid In fostering Il. For every dol.
lar appropriated by the state for this
work 80 will be received In return, and
this fact should De advertised.
AZ the present time not more than i.OOO-
0oo chinook salmon are paeked\on the CO.

this pack Is about 10000. II IA the in.

II Is hoped that about % per cent will

II 100000 salmon are worth 100000,
what are o.o0O 90 salmon worth?
This Is the way the situation sizes Itself
up. Allowing. however. that only l0.OOoO 90
salmon reach maturity. the results OBJ
tanned will exceed ten-fold those for any
other appropriation made by any state.
Very few Oregonians thoroughly ap-
preciate this. and II Is the earnest wish OF
Mr.. Mcclure that the fac, be advertised.
The Portland exposition affords an eI-
cellent opportunity Of doing so.

AN ACCOMPLISHED ACTOR
FOUND WASHING DISHES

He played Applus ClaudIus TO Wards
vlrgInIus. and found him washing
dishes for q a week at the Osborn hotel.
on the East Side. a few days ago. re
marked well-known theatrical manager
this morning.
Without wishing TO name this thesplan-
dishwasher. the manager continued that
for two or three weeks prior he had seen
magnificent speclman Of physical and
intellectual manhood lolling about the
Perkins hotel. Despite his very seedy ap-
parel and general disslpated appearance.
there was something in his countenance
denotlng him to be man OF superior
qualifications.
"I engaged him in conversation one
day" added the manager. "and found out
that he was one OF the most accomplish
ed actors in the Union. He had just left
Wards company because Of his irresist-
lble appetite for drink. He suddenly dis
appeared from his hotel haunts.
Last week got telegram from Dick
French. manager Of the Seattle theater,
asking me to send him frst-class leading
man. | bethought myself Of the one /
met at the Perkins. and after some
trouble located him at the Osborn.
when I met him on this occasion his
clothes were In tatters. and but for his
young face. he appeared like vertlable
Rip Van Wrinkle.
French sent me a ticket for him and
some money TO get him new apparel, etc.
You never saw such change, as there
was in that man after had encased him
in his new suit. II would have done
your heart good 10 have noticed how he
Immediately braced up and felt like him
self again He now IL playing In Seattle,
where he at once sprang into great
favor"
The manager added that on the day
Of this nameless actors departure he
spoke Of him to Mr.. Dunn manager for
Hoyts MIX White Flag" Company then
playing at the Marquam.
THAT man." said Mr. Dunn, "is the
cleverest leading man In America. | paid
him $50 week myself. But whisky was
his bane. He Is graduate Of oxford,
England, and were he to absolutely d.
vorce himself from drink he could easily
earn from so 10 800 per week instead Of
washing dishes at Sl2 a month.
