1t is true that when 'sour boys"
marched away last May under stream
ing banners, to the inspiring strains
of martial music, we knew that they
were enlisted to fight; true, also, that
their letters during months of absence
have breathed eagerness for the fray.
But all of that was dim and unreal,
prOblematical at best; while this
this is reality. The conflict Is going
on so far away that mothers may not
hasten to the hospitals to nurse and
cheer the wounded, or fathers join
the ranks of those who search the
bloody canebrake, charged with the
sad duty of identifying the dead and
perhaps bearing a hero home for
burial. This is war-war waged by
Americans on a. foreign shore. In
vain we tell ourselves and each other
that we expected the shock of battle
and were prepared for it. The blow
is staggering, nevertheless, though as
brave people, people loyal to their
country IN any cause that it champions
We will rally our forces of endurance
and patriotism and meet 1t without
more of flinching than nature exacts
As her reasonable tribute. Resigna-
ton will come later to sorely stricken
hearts-perhaps-or, if not resigna-
ton, placid submission. to the inevi-
table that is a kind of endowment of
reason.-O Oregonian.

WIPING OUT A STAIN.

General Wheaton's brigade, which
includes the First Washington volun-
teer regiment, while deprived of the
honor of attacking the main body of
the insurgents, has been kept busy.
From the dispatches it appears that
the work of the last two days has
been less dangerous than formerly,
and it is probable, therefore, that no
material loss has been inflicted on
the fearless men from the northwest.
Kansas has had the danger post, and
right gloriously has the prairie state
shown the stuff in her soldier boys.
They have repeated the achievement
of the First Washingtons in crossing
a stream and charging up hill in
the face of a heavy fire, dislodging
the enemy. Major General OTIS has
at last discovered the worth of the
western troops, and their performance
of duty has forced from a hitherto
reluctant administration the admis-
sion that they are on par with if
not more experienced in brilliant
fighting than the sturdy regulars.
1t has remained for the western
volunteers to wipe out the disgrace
of the Seventy-frst New York at
Santiago, when Europe was given
to understand that American volun-
teers were poor soldiers. When the
reports of foreign attaches at Manila
reach their home governments the
press of England and the continent
will adopt more respectful tone
toward the volunteers. Spokesman

Still in a Deadlock.

Sacramento, Cal, jan 24.-This has
been an uneventful day in the sena-
torial contest. The dead lock still con-
tinues. But one ballot was taken to-
day, it resulting the same as that of
yesterday, of Saturday, or that of every
day since Bulla made his gain of four
votes. There was no objection to i'm
mediate adjournment of the joint ses-
sion. The session lasted scarcely 20
minutes.
The special committee investigating
legislative scandals has about COM
pleted it's work. 1t held a short session
this afternoon, which assemblymen and
senators attended to deny that they had
received money from U. S. Grant.
There was no evidence of Importance
brought out at the session. This even
ing the committee held an executive
session to discuss the plan and scope
of their report. Irving M. Scott of San
Francisco will open headquarters here
at once. Some of the most prominent
men of the state will be here making
his fight. This adds a new element to
the situation.

THEY ARE INCORRlGlBlE.
Celia Decker and Annie johnson Will
Not Be Reformed.

s A scene enacted at the city Jail yester-
day left no doubt in the minds of those
-2who witnessed it that the reform school is
\ the place for at least one of the two girls,
@sCelia Decker and Annie Johnson, who
were arrested night before last for incor
rgibilty. The mothers of the girls called
at the Jail yesterday morning to see them,
but did not get much consolation for their
trouble. The old ladies pleaded with their
daughters to reform, but they would not
listen and said they preferred being sent
to the reform school to making any such
"a vow. Then when the heartbrok moth
ers broke down and cried bitterly they
were not touched but obstinately declared
their intention of leading life of shame
The girls were allowed to remain in jail
during the day in the hope the experience
would change their minds, but enforced
association with couple of coarse ne
crosses in jail for robbery had no more
effect on the degenerates than to make
them act though they liked it, and
last night found them still adhering to
their determination to go to the reform
school rather than mend their ways. An
attachment appears to exist between the
two girls. as they both insist that what
ever is done with one the other will share
her fate. 1t is said one is of age and it is
doubtful therefore whether anything can
be done with her or not. When told last
evening that only the one under agc could
be sent to the reform school, the girls
frantically declared they would not be
separated. 1t is uncertain what DISPOSE
ton will be made of their cases.

President Search used a gavel that
had in it's construction samples of wood

the occasion. The manufacturers pub

WINTER FLANNELS OF THE WOODS.
Use Made of Bushy Tails by Some Wild
Animals in Cold Weather.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Some of our wild animals said a
nturalist, carry with them all summer
that which nature has evidently in
tended as a substitute for their winter
tlannels. So far as I have been able to
judge, the bushy-tail animals know no
other use for their tails than as pro-
lection against the cold. Did you ever
see fox sleeping? That is one sight of
which the most patient student of wild
life cannot always boast, because a
fox is always wide awake and has a
general antipathy to being looked at.
My own observations with sleeping ones
have been confined to two that l raised
from pups. When it was cold they
would shrink up and seem to fairly
wrap their tails about them. When the
air grew warmer they would uncoil a
little and sometimes discard the tail
entirely, just about as impatiently as a
sleeping child will kick off the covers
when he gets too warm in the night.
do not think that this attitude is habit
ual with sleeping foxes. When the
weather was warm they did not curl up
al ALL but lay spraWlng with their tails
on the ground behind them.
THE raccoon makes the same use of
his tail. Did you ever see one prepar-
ing for a nap? Like the fox, he goes
to sleep on his side, but he makes more
fuss about it than lazy lad getting up
in the morning. First he bitches up his
shoulders and arches his back, and in
the cavity thus formed he carefully
tucks away his knees and elbows and
head. Then he brings his tail in close,
the end of it curving over his head. He
unWinds himself half a dozen times be-
fore he gets curled up to his satisfac-
ton, and when finally arranged he re-
sembles nothing quite so much as a
muff without the customary openings
,:,.t.,1 loo,
his tail, sleeping upright and propped
against something.
In fact" concluded the naturalist,
this is true Of every bushy- tailed ami
mai | have been on terms of sufficient
intimacy to see asleep. 1t is a Very
kindly arrangement ma ture has made
for their comfort, and they do not seem
! to mind very much carrying around
their winter flannels in the summer. If
| they did not carry them wherever they
| went they would probably lose them, as
| the red man proves in his tale of the
| bear and the "a bbit"

IT WAS TRACED TO BOYS
Responsible for the Burglary of
the Passmore Store.
AN EXAMPLE TO BE MADE
Reprimands by the Court Have Been
H Found to Be Useless-Part OF the
Stolen Property Has Been
Recovered.
AN EXAMPLE TO BE MADE

90 The burglary of the Passmore store,
as was expected it would be, has been
traced to boys, and some people are of
the opinion it is about time to adopt
drastic measures in dealing with the
boys who are periodically Jailed for
stealing. No less than dozen house
breaking jobs have been traced to boys
of tender years, and in almost every in
stance at least some of the same boys
have been implicated, but each time
they have been allowed to go on account
of their ages on the theory that it is bet
ter to give a boy who committed a
crime a reprimand by the court and let
him go than to send him to Jail. This
plan has been followed with no other re-
suit than the same juvenile depredators
have again been arrested until some
people have come to the conclusion the
theory is an exploded one, and that it
as about time to make an example of
some of them.
Yesterday officers Cantwell and Tor
pey ran down the Passmore burglary
and found that some of the boys who
have repeatedly been accused We're i'm
plicated in it. The officers located and
recovered a part of the stolen property
in an old clubhouse behind a cabin be-
tween Woolman street and Dublin
SGulch, and during the day arrested
= three boys. all of whom. as usual, con-
fessed. The boys are Jerry Sullivan.
4 James Burns and Jerry Harrington, and
all are under Ia years of age. They i'm
plicate several other boys, who have not
yet been arrested. The goods recovered
consist of SO memorandum books, five
= bottles of perfume. three boxes of pen
ellis three boxes of erasers, one box of
combs. seven boxes of pens, one pack
age of blank cards.
