Indian War Veteran Bill.

The success of Senate. George W.
McBride's efforts to secure from con-
gress suitable legislation in favor of
the meritorious claims of the Indian
war veterans of this section, will bring
him many letters of conmendation
from his Oregon constituents. There
are two thousand or more of these vet
Grams in this state and in Washington,
and certainly they deserve recognition
at the hands of the government. They
are for the most part, old pioneers,
and many of them are in actual need.
They freely gave their time and means
and risked their lives for the preser-
vation of this section from the ravages
of the red men.

Last year several rich lodges of old
bearing quartz were discovered in the

Some excitement is prevalent here
in Canyon City by the recent strike in
the Great Northern mine, situated
about two miles southeast of Canyon
City. The Great Northern mine is
owned and operated by Isaac Guker,
having located the same in September,
1896. Two men have taken over $1,000
from the claim with mortar and pan
during the past week. The gold is
being taken from cut 20 feet long and
II feet deep, in which there is an ex-
ceedingly rich ledge II or IA inches in
width, and which makes an average
yield of So to the pound, aggregating
SIG, 900 to the ton. In one instance
$3.50 was secured from four pounds of
decomposed quartz.
"The surface prospects about the
same for 35 feet. One shaft 16 feet
deep, and about ten feet from the cut,
is equally as rich.
"There is tunnel on the claim 25
feet long with rich prospects besides
the ledge, which is very rich quartz.
The gold is mostly wire gold, with
some flour gold.
SIT was on Mr.. Guker's claim that
Clark Bros. found the pocket last fall
which contained $780,"

] have often wished Dickens might
have known Mrs. Bangs" said the preach
er who was relating some of his early ex-
perience in a Pennsylvania town. MRS
Bangs was excruciatingly neat by ma
ture, while Lester, her husband, was
somewhat untidy, perhaps necessarily 50,
as he was a blacksmith by trade. No
matter what the cause, the untidiness was
exasperating to Mrs. Bangs, and she con-
stantly fretted about it, making the ex-
istence Of poor Lester perfectly miserable
But this was not the only cause in her
eyes for worry; a thousand and one little
things every day irritated her and poor
Lester suffered for them.
I'm spite Of all irritating causes which
might be found centered In Lester, he was
the greatest blessing Of her life, but, like
most people, she did not appreciate 1t un-
til she was made helpless by his last
illness. Then the Tuning of life ceased,
and Lester had the best of nursing. IL
was 20 no purpose, for his time had come,
The physician announced to Mrs. Bangs
that the disease had gone beyond his
power, that in all probability Lester would
not live more than three days.
Here was where Mrs Bangs gave con-
elusive evidence that she had right to
be immortalized among the characters Of
Lester would not live more than three
days she was inspired with the idea that
the odd $500 Of the 300 life insurance
which Mr.. Bangs carried might be secured
in advance of his death, or al least In time
TO help out on the funeral expenses She
wrote 10 the company, giving the verdict
Of the physician and adding that no doubt
her poor Lester would be dead by The
time the letter was received, and would
they please send the odd $500 at once so
that 1t would enable her to meet the fu-
nearl expenses promptly. To cap the eli
max, she took the letter 10 Lester to ask
him If it was worded all right. With much
difficulty he adjusted his glasses and slow
~ read IL through, and then, with much
effort, gasped out:
'Yes-that-will-do'
"Well, Lester died on schedule time and
was buried before an answer to the appeal
arrived. The insurance company took the
usual time for proving the death claim,
and three weeks passed before the claim
was paid This delay to the impatient
Mrs. Bangs seemed endless and she de-
spairingly remarked on several occasions:
I'm sure they intend TO cheat me out
of that money What a shame that would
be after all we've paid to keep il up
About three weeks after the funeral my
wife and ] strolled past the house OF Mrs
Bangs one evening just at dark. We mad
got past the house four or five rods when
we were startled by a scream from an up
stairs window in one Of the houses in our
rear We thought we recognized the voice
and Immediately turned back to see what
our friend wanted Before we reached the
gate she screamed OUT

the natives of India and Asia are paral-
leled in the Philippines, and the witches
are said 10 hold sabbat here as well as
else where. The belief that certain sounds
have power over non-human presences
seems TO be universal, and the invocations
used by the Philippine Islanders are said
TO be preserved In secret manuscripts, as
are those OF the peoples above mentioned.
Another parallel Is found in the tradition
I'm regard to the formation of these islands.
The natives, who, of course, originally
knew nothing of the outside world, say
that ages ago a giant bore the earth on
his shoulders, but after while he got so
tired that he dropped 1t into the sea,
wherein it sank so deep that only the
mountains were above the water, these
mountains being the islands they inhablt.
The giant is, of course the same as the
Atlas Of Greek mythology.

Tho Lnrrs of Alaska.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 15.-Attorney
General McKenna has submitted to the
senate a special report made by the
commission to revise and codify the
criminal and penal laws of the United
States concerning the criminal and pc
nal laws relating to Alaska, also a code
os criminal procedure for that district
III the form of a bill which accompa-
MED the report Of the commission.
The commission points out that by
virtue of the act providing civil gov
ernment for Alaska the laws of Oregon
become laws of the United States. The
laws which now exist over Alaska may
be classified as follows: The statutes
of the United States extending over all
the states and territories; the statutes
of the United States enacted especially
for Alaska; the laws of oregon in force
on the 18th of May, 1884, so far as they
are applicable and not in conflict with
the laws of the United States.
The commission suggests that If the
bill which It proposes is enacted into
law It will furnish a complete penal
code for Alaska. In conclusion, the
commission says:
Under authority of existing laws the
president has appointed commissioners
/ 70 reside at nine designated places VINO,
with other powers and duties, are eX
ofiicio justices of the peace. 1t is to be
! presumed that other communities of
/ considerable numbers win be formed as
the population of the district increases,
and to meet their needs we have in
serted provision authorizing the judge
of the district court TO appoint addi-
tional commissioners, with the jurisdic-
tion OF magistrates in criminal pro-
ceedings. Provision is also made fol
the appointment Of deputy marshals in
excess Of the number now authorized
by law, and all the deputy marshals
are given the authority of constables in
the execution of criminal process"
