This morning the one-legged tramp
who burned his wooden leg Friday and
then attem pied to drown himself in the
Columbia, was discharged from the GUS
tody of the county officials and shipped
to Portland. He seemed to be in better
spirits when he left, and it is thought
that loss of food and rest caused him to
grow melancholy and attempt to take
his life. Previous to the time he was
taken to jail he had been trying to SUBJ
sist on wheat which he had gathered up
and carried N his pocket Now he
seems to think life worth living.
Most of those who have had occasion
TO wander forth into the gentle zephvrs
today would have been ready to sur
render their part of them to anyone who
would name them and take them.
While some may be ready to term this
gala day, Webster tells Us that the
2lst of March is the time of the vernal
equinox, and we therefore decide that
we have today been enioyingt?J the
equinoctial gales. We are also pleased
to note that they are not supposed to
visit us again until September 22nd, at
which time We'll endeayor not to be at

We notice that the correspondent in

district 1474 persons of school age and
1857 actual resident pupils. Multiply

no advantage of the visitors, but that. if
any of the Astorians meet with, or have
met, any accident, the home team will
even up matters by bowling cripples.

desires that mixed team be sent up

warmest friends of the A. F. 9. The
visit is looked forward to with much
pleasure.-Astorian.

Spuds are said to be very scarce about
Portland, and the retail price has gone
up to $1.50 sack. The railroads are
announcing special rate of so cents per
one hundred pounds to apply from the

AS potatoes there cost but go and 20
cents, they claim that will make them

local product. Hearing of the scarcity

to be especially scarce in this section,
the price now being 30 cents. It is not
likely, however, that much shipping
will be done from the East as there
has been a sufficient amount of this
product in the Willamette valley to
supply the California market. which de-

certainly no reason for sending East for

OREGON VOLUNTEERS TO STAY
Little Prospect of Their Early Return
From Manila.

The Oregon volunteers may have TO
remain in the Philippines until the
trouble is over. When that will be is
only guess. General Otis Is said to
be planning a blow at the insurgents
that Is calculated to hasten the end. In
notifying the authorities at Washington
of this fact. he incidentally stated that
the boys were willing to remain as long
as there was need for them.
There is difference of opinion as to
when and how the war will end. Many
think that the aggressive campaign be-
ing inaugurated will soon crUsh the in
surgente, while there are many who
Filipinos.
1t is the general opinion now that the
volunteer army will be kept where it is
until the trouble is over. The boys have
in a measure become accllmated, and
have learned much of the ways of war
fare of the natives. This makes them
more valuable than lot of regulars
could possibly be, and it would be g
fatal mistake many think, to replace
them until the American forces are in
complete control on the island.
A good deal has been said about the
volunteers having fulfilled their con-
tract, as they enlisted for the Spanish.
American war. That war being Ions
since ended, it is claimed that the boys
are entitled to come home. While thi:
may be true, the volunteers are filled
with that same kind of patriotism thai
caused them to give up good positions
and homes when they were needed. Nc
one doubts that they will remain where
they are as long as needed, and indi
cations are that they will be needed fol
good while.-Telegram.

Woe og Paris.

Parisians say that their beloved city is being ruined by the automobile fad, which is ten times worse than the bi- cycling fever ever dared to be. Luck fly there are not so many automobiles as bicycles, for they are expensive. The sights, sounds and smells resulting from the carriages propelled by petro- leum are driving people from the bou- levards.
 Half an hour after an automobile has passed traces of petroleum finger in the air. The beauty of it is that the drivers of the vehicle cannot smell it-it infiicts itself only on the passers- by.
 Some stunning toilets are to be seen on the pretty women who have desert- ed their bicycles for the automobile Sometimes the carriages are uphol- stered to match madame's favorite gown--in gray or crimson broadcloth, with paraso1 tops and soft cushions for dainty shoes. The fact that she has to guide her carriage successfully before a critical judge, who passes on her pro- fciency in the art before she can get a license to wheel wherever she vii has no effect on Tadame's determin: ton to join the merry throng on tn boulevards.

CHAPTER XIV.
A FRIEND IN NEED.

Lieutenant Oakman was too skilled
a horseman to remain long in ignorance
Of the woeful mistake he had made He
had taken the worst horse of the whole
lot, and one of the inevitable certainties
of the immediate future was that he
would be beaten in his flight for free
dom.
CHANGING over his shoulder at the
party dashing down the highway after
him and noting that they were surely
gaining, the fugitive perforce did some
hard thinking.
"This can't 60 on much longer. I
don't think they will need court mar
tial next time to decide what to do
with ME"
The pursuers were close enough to
tumble Oakman from the saddle, but
he knew they would not do that, since
by waiting awhile he must fall into
their hands, while there was danger
that in firing they might wound the
horse. Even though he was the least
valuable of the lot, the party were not
willing to lose him.
Oakman glanced keenly to the right
and left, in the hope Of discovering
something that might be turned to ac-
count in his flight. The open character
Of the country was discouraging, but
20 recalled indistinctly small stretch
Of woods through which he passed when
ofoot which ha tbnuobf ,,;1b% ,ar,,o
