BEAUTIFUL WlLLhhEIIhs
From the Cascades frozen gorges
Leaping like a child at play,
Winding, widending through the
valley
Bright " willamette glidcs away.
Onward ever,
Lovely river,
Softly calling 10 the sea;
Time that sears us,
Mains and mars ua,
Leaves no track or trench ON
thee.
Springs green witchcry In weaving
Braid and border for thy side;
Grace forever haunts thy journey
Beauty dimples on thy tide.
Through the purple gates of morn.
ing,
Now thy roseate ripples dance;
Golden then, when day departing,
On thy waters trails his lance.
Waiting, flashing,
Tingling, plashing,
Limpid, volatile and free
Always hurried 10 be buried
In the bitter moon-mad sea,
In thy crystal deeps, inverted,
Swings picture of the sky,
Like those wavering hopes Of Alden,
Dimly In our dreams that lie;
Clouded often, drowned In turmoil,
Faint and lovely, far away
Wreathing sunshine on the morrow A.,
Breathing fragrance round today.
Love would wander
Here and ponder
Hithcr poetry would dream;
Life's old questions,
Sad suggestions,
"Whence and whittier" throng
thy stream.
ON the roaring waste of ocean
Soon thy scattered waves shall
toss;
Mid the surges' rhythmic thunder
Shall thy silver tongues be- lost,
Oh thy glimmering rush OF gladness
Mocks this turbid life Of mine,
Racing 10 the wild Forever
Down the sloping paths Of Time.
Onward ever,
Lovely river,
Softly calling to the sea,
Time that scars us,
Mains and mars us,
Leaves no trace or trench ON thee.

Sam Houston and His Corns.

Prof. Hiram Corson, of Cornell uni
versity, who used to be reporter for
the United States senate, tells this
story about Sam Houston: 1--WE re-
porters took turn anG turn about each
for an hour. One day was sitting
idly in the reporters gallery, waiting
my turn and looking on. Presently
my attention was drawn by Senator
Houston. Huge of frame, he was par
ticularly huge of feet, and these eX-
tremities were rendered the more con-
spicuous in those days of boots by be-
ing incased in laced shoes. On this
occasion there seemed to be an amount
of pain in those feet proportionate to
their size. The senator kept one upon
his knee, rubbing it, with an anguished
expression, and periodically eXchang-
ing for the other foot. After awhile he
unlaced his shoes and drew them off.
hen the nursing of his aching toes
continued for Il time as before. But
no relief came and at last, to my utter
amazement, he slowly divested himself
of long blue wooien stocking, and,
taking the huge jackllnife with which
he was won't TO pass the time whit
Ting, he proceeded deliberately to
pare his corns in the senate of tho
United States. Hartford Post.

LIQUID AIR.

Liquid air presents surprising pos
81 Utilities as a medicine. a Russian
physician has begun to experiment
with it. He placed dog in a room
with the temperature lowered, as stat
ed IN London Engineering, to 100 de-
grees below zero. After ten hours the
dog was taken out alive, and with an
enormous appetite. The physician
tried the test himself. After ten hours
confinement in an atmosphere of still
dry cold, his system was intensely
stimulated. So much combustion had
been required to keep warm that an
intense appetite was created. The pro-
cess was continued on the man and
the dog, and both grew speedily fai
and vigorous. 1t was like a visit TO q
bTacing northern climate.

MODERN PIRACY,

a Chsefoo dispatch states that, owing
TO the general distress caused by the
disastrous Yellow River foods, num-
bers OF the refugees have taken to pir-
acy on the coast, a large number OF
cargo and passenger junks having been
robbed within the last two months,
with considerable loss both in life and
and goods. At first the larger and bet
ter armed iunks were not molested at
all, but owing to the poweriessness or
the authorities to punish these depre-
dations, the pirates have become bold
er and large junks have recently also
been attacked. On the 18th ultimo a
welI-armed junk with numerous crew
and some twenty passengers, was at
tackled near Chefoo by two pirate junks
and a desperate encounter ensued. re-
sulting in the loss of twenty-five men
in killed and wounded on the junk and
some tbs. 1900 in cash and goods.

More on MynahS.

A number OF Honolulu residents
formerly OF the Australian colonies tell
OF the mynah birds. They say that in
the colonies the mynah is known and
liked as whistler and that killing the
fighter is an offense against the law.
AS yet 10 one has come forward with
information on teaching the birds to
make music The most that can be
learned under this head is that in In
dia they are really taught.
