'Yes, sir; but those boys of Lieut..

''Jessie!" cried Elinor, in delight that
overmastered the emotion with which
she had listened to the tale of her
brother recent peril. "Marshall's here
almost home. It's just as we said
Jess. Do come down. He was there
just in time to save my brothers life

her dark eyes flashing with joy and
excitement danced full upon the bulky

the parlor door, then beyond as she
went bounding by him, all eagerness
to clasp her bonny friend in her arms
and shower her with congratulations.

Warren Roberts Killed.

The irresistible force of a loaded
logging train, when it breaks away
from control, was never more terribly
shown than in the unfortunate acci
dent which befe1 Warren Roberts, the
oldesa and most popular employee on
the Puget Sound & Gray's Harbor
Railroad, Monday forenoon.
While the lower train was rounding
the sharp curve at the foot of the H y
line, near the Summit, fange on the
wheel of the car next to the engine
broke, and the train separated at the
second car. Conductor Roberts was
standing on the platform of that car,
and attempted to jump out of danger,
or was thrown on the track in front of
the runaway cars. The thirteen
heavy loaded cars piled up over his
body in wreck, throwing the logs in
all directions. The trainmen went to
work removing the wreck in order to
reach the unfortunate conductor,
whose dismembered body was soon
found, excepting the head, which was
later picked up fifty feet from the
track where it had been hurled. The
remains, severed into FIVE parts, were
taken to Kamilche and the terrible
news broken to his striker wife, whom
kind friends and neighbors relieved in
every possible way.
Warren Roberts was about Al years
of age, and came to Washington from
Pennsylvania about fourteen years
ago. For the past twelve years he
has been steadily employed on the
railroad, in charge of passenger and
logging trains, one of the company's
most trusted employees. He was mar
ried in 1890 to Miss Dora Hayes, who
with two small children survives him.
The funeral took place at Olympia
in charge of the A. 0. u, w. he being

Dear Friends and Neighbors, (big and
llttle(--I have been long time writing
you this letter but heretofore have had
very little chance.
AS you know l came over the Northern
Pacific which is nice road The tourist
car was very comfortable, it was a new
one, built much heavier than the old ones,
and consequently rode more easily. 1t
had a kitchen with a range and a sink.
One morning two women came in from the
day coach and looked into the kitchen. II
wonder if this is where they cook for the
dining car one said think visit to
that region, with its luxury, would have
been revelation to her.
There was much grand scenery but all l
could say was Il m glad l don't have to
live here. . felt that way more than ever
when I found my self in Chicago. Tho
early in the morning, the roar was almost
deafening Lines of cable cars heavy
wagons, elevated street cars, all contribut-
ed to the din.
gazed at the sky-scrapers but did not
care to go in. In fact l was perfectly
ready to go to Evanston for a few quiet
hours with the Mead's S. They are pleas
antly situated but the death of Roy sadden-
ed the home. l saw the blue lake, and the
life saving station. The crew went out
and patrolled the beach for FIVE miles to
recover Roy's body and found it the next
morning. spent several hours at Rest
Cottage which is Miss Willard S old home
but of that you will hear some other time
spent a most delightful day at Niagara
seeing the wonderful falls, and the beauti-
full parks. and going over into the Queen s
dominions where saw the Union Jack in
stead of the stars and stripes, i spent three
days at Keene, N H. and received warm
welcome from the ladies at the W. C. T. u
Convention
Everything looks queer to me. The peo-
pie all live in such immense houses. very
much wished to take home one 1 saw in
Keene. to put in my front yard.
The house where am now guest, is
two hundred years old, and has been
handed down from father to son for five
generations. 1t was called garrison
house. Many of the windows are high up
from the floor, aid have the old-fashioned
tiny panes of glass. The window lodges
in the room where sleep, are ten inches
deep, the space between the walls having
been filled in solidly with stones so as to
be bullet proof, for protection against the
Indians
There has been no frost here yet. the
farmers are busy picking their immense
apple crop, putting the fruit into barrels
ready to send to Boston.
My friends are loyal Republicans but I
find to my sorrow that the women are not
in the habit of of attending political meet
ings here, so shall miss that.

UNLESS Kaiser Wilhelm have been
made victim Of an incompetent trans
lator says the Philadelphia Record, his
address to a part of the German ex-
peditionary force to China which
sailed from Bremerhaven on Friday
last was inspired by the instincts of a
savage. An excitement to his soldiers
to spare neither sex nor age, and to
give no quarter, would have been more
becoming to Zulu chieftain than to a
civilized monarch who plumes himself
upon being a devout Christian. 1t was
blasphemy to invoke ''the blessings of
the Lord"upon an expedition sent forth
on such a mission, and mockery to
refer to missionaries instructed to kill
and spare not as being sent to ''open
civilization"
Smyrna times., 1900-08-01

THE world is making history rapidly
and is making some of sort
that is surprising. One war is not
ended before another is begun
and the era of universal peace for
the nations seems as far away as ever.
In the present trouble of China the
great powers of Europe are all in
volved, but the lesser Powers-the
nations that, if not dying, are not
growing stronger-are wisely keeping
out of the imbroglia, knowing that
they could gain nothing, and mig hit lose
all by becoming involved in a possible
conflict in the Orient.
1t is therefore, rather a surprise,
says the Yonkers Statesman, to read
an official announcement from Constan-
tinople that the Sultan of Turkey
thinks of sending an armed force to
China to cooperate with the Powers,
and it is almost startling to be in
formed that he is greatly agitated by
the barbarous acts of the Chinese.
Abdul Hamid's past record has not led
the world to look upon him as a man
apt to shed any large amount of tears
over the wanton sacrifice of human life.
Massacres of missionaries have been so
regular in their recurrence in the land
of the Turk that those who engage in
this work know that they take their
lives in their own hands when they
enter the Sultan's dominions. 1t has
Deeu but a very few years since the
whole civilized world stood aghast al
the Turks horrible massacre of the
Armenians, and time and again has
Abdul been called to account for suct
atrocities.
Smyrna times., 1900-08-01

THE later news from Pekin seems to
revive hope in regard to the fate of the
foreign ministers. According to note
received from Sir Claude Mcdonald,
of the British Legation, they are held
in Pekin as hostages, and by this
means hope to prevent an advance of
the Allies on Pekin. 1t is believed
that the Chinese intend to hold them
in this way. After an attack lasting
twenty-five days on the British Lega-
ton, where they had taken refuge,
and sixty-two were killed, an armis-
tice has been declared awaiting the
action of the Powers. A Gordon was
strictly drawn around the building,
where they were fred on daily. A
march of the allied forces on Pekin
will be the signal for the death of the
Ministers.
Sheng admits that he has received
advices saying that all the foreigners in
ao-Ting-Fu had been killed, includ-
ing forty British, French and Amer
ican missionaries, and it is also stated
that two thousand native converts have
been masacred.
1t is believed that the Powers will be
ready this week or next to march on
Pekin with an army of 40, 900 or $4,000.
The Chinese news is so conflicting
that it is difficult to believe any state
ment made.
Smyrna times., 1900-08-01

July and August says metropoll-
tan journal, are the months when lit
tie midsummer madness is permissible
to all mankind, and when formalities
and conventions melt like ice in the
box. Wooden plates and paper nap
kins are feature of outdoor etiquette,
and no one pauses to question whether
it is proper to take the chicken bone in
ones fingers. Publishers of magazines
recognize this seasonable love of light
ness by issuing midsummer fiction
numbers" which are not calculated to
stir the minds beyond certain desirable
depths.
Every other person one meets is pur-
suing pleasure with golf stick, crO-
quet mallet, fishing tackle, or a book,
according to his taste and tempera-
ment, and for the most part the pur-
suit seems not to be in vain.
OF course, there is rich field for tie
moralist in this summer search for hap
pin SIS, and the pessimist, too, may
wish that he might be present at the
end of the game to put his old ques-
ton: 'Does it pay?"
John Stuart Mill, in his famous
Autobiography" has started some
wise conclusions in regard to the per-
suit of pleasure. ''The enjoyments
of life," he says, ''are sufficient to
make it a pleasant thing. when they
are taken en- passant, without being
made a principal object. One make
them so, and they are Immediately felt
to be insufficient. They will not beal
scrutinizing examination. Ask your
self whether you are happy and cease
to be So"
The summer plasure-seeker rarely
pauses to ''scrutinize" his state, and i
is safe to say that the outdoor nature
of his sport precludes that the after-feel
ing of dullness which is sure to come
when one seeks for pleasure in closer
quarters.
Smyrna times., 1900-08-01

Lady Randolph Churchill is an Amer
lean woman, and when she makes up
her mind that she wants something
she is pretty sure to get it, even if that
something be the handsome young
man in the British army, CORVALLIS
West. Against the opposition of the
aristocracy, led by the Prince of Wales,
an English woman would not
have dared to persist; but the plucky
American matron and beauty won over
the Prince, reduced her full-grown son
to silence and welded her young lieu
tenant. Lieutenant West was born in
1874, the same year in which Miss Jen-
ME Jerome became Lady Randolph
Churchill.
