The editor of country news
paper has no business to make mis-
takes He has no business even to
put anything into his paper that
people do not like. He ought to
know just what would suit each in
diyidual, or he ought to take an
item before it is published and let
the one whom it concerns censor it.
An editor has plenty of time to do
all this, as all he has to do is to
hunt news and clean rollers. set
type, clean floors, pen short items,
hustle for advertising, fold papers
and write wrappers, make paste
and mail the papers, talk 10 visitors
and distribute type, carry water
and read proofs and correct mis-
takes, hunt the shears to clip ar.
ticles with, dodge the bills and dim
the delinquents, and take cuisines

About Sugar Beets.
d. C. corbin, proprietor of the
beet sugar factory at Waverly, and
Prof. Fulmer, chemist Of the same
institution, came to Pullman yes
terday to meet our business men
and interested citizens and discuss
the proposition Of the raising of
sugar beets III this vicinity.
A meeting was held in the city
hall, there being present a Urge at
tendance, inclusing many farmers
who are contemplating the planting
of beets, and deep interest was man
Tested.
Mr.. Corbin took up i'll detail the
proposition which he has made the
farmers this season, making all
points clear. The proposition is
substantially as stated heretofore in
this paper, Mr.. Corbin furnishing
all labor required for the growing
of the crop, the farmer preparing
the soil as directed by Mr.. Corbin,
making it ready to receive the seed,
when Mr.. Corbin's men take the
charge of the crop, the farmer fur
nishing only the teams required.
The profits resulting i'll other
states from the culture of sugar
beets was shown, and the fact that
no country can produce a beet of
better grade than this goes to prove
that it will one day divide honors
with wheat and fruit in this region.
Mr.. Fulmer stated that the first
1000 tons received at the Waverly
factory this fall gave an average per
cent. of 1876 of sugar, this average
being something almost unheard of,
and Notwithstanding the fact that
this had been the driest season on
record, good returns were received
by the growers from the crop.
1t was explained that in prepar-
alton for the seed, the ground
should be ploWed nine or ten inches
deep and SUBSIDIZED four or five
inches below this, then narrowed
and rolled. Corbin's men plant,
thin, weed, cultivate and harvest
the beets. Mr.. Fulmer, as chemist
of the experiment station, has made
extensive Investigations along the
line OF the beet, and he stated that
he was satisfied the soil in this
vicinity, under proper preparation
and tlllage, would produce at least
Is tons of beets per acre, and at the
prices guaranteed by the factory the
possibilities Of this industry are at
once apparent. The price at which
the factory contracts the beets is s.
per ton for beets giving Il per cent.
in sugar, and IS cts. extra for each
additional per cent. of sugar.
Already large number of farm
ers here have agreed to contract to
grow beets, and it is probable that
Pullman will furnish in the neigh
borhood of 1000 acres.
And large advance i'll the direc-
ton OF diversified farming is being
made.

paper has no business to make mis-

LIFE STORY OF
 MRS. NAT COLLINS

My life since childhood has been on the plains and in tine mountains. My father was one of the first to visit the gold fields of Pike's Peak. What is now the city of Denver, Col, was then settlement of but two or three log cabins and a few tents. All provisions and merchandise at that time were carried across the plains on tredght- ing wagons, the freighters travelling in large companies for protection against the Indians.
 My first adventure of note came while with one of these freigtlJing trains on the way from Denver to the east. where was journeying to attend school at my o.d home in Iowa. The train was attacked by a band of hostiles, and I was captured
 va s taken to the main camp and pre- scented to the chiefs daughter as a play mate or, more correctly, as a pet. I was compelled to witness the torture of prls- oners almost daily, at one time being forced Ito behold the burning at the stake of a Mexican prisoner.
 Again, with other prisoners, I was com pelled ct run the gauntlet and to this day bear the scar from wound inflicted by

General Funston Overheard

From the San Francisco News Letter
 A small man in gray coat sat in a valen- cia street car and eyed the army officer op- posite with ill-conceiled disfavor. Finally he remarked to his companion, tall man: These monkeys under shoulder-straps give me the wearies."
 'Me, too."
 ''They take themselves seriously" contin- ued the small man. If we had more real officers and fewer gilt upholstered peacocks in the Philippines the fighting of the men of the line would count for more, I never see one strutting the street but that I want to kick his useless carcass"
 Same here." said the tall man. "There's sample of him over there," indicating the officer opposite, for whose benefit the con- versation was being carried on. 'The best he could command would be a cash boy"
 'Surse." said the small man, with a con- temptuous star at the shoulder-straps.
 You're getting it pretty hard" smiled a passenger, who was seated by the officer.
 "Yes, pretty tough"
 May l ask your name?"

without the culture of a college career. MT. Allen says: If a man intends to de- vote himself to science or theology, by all means let him obtain the best classical ed- ucation that he can command, but if he wishes to be novelist, let him study in the school of adventure" And then Con- rad and Bullen and Clark Russell and Mor- ley Roberts and Morgan Robertson are quoted as instances; for he claimed that 1t was the sea that taught them to write. Maybe there is food for serious thought in this proposition, for we do often find that the best writers of good romance are in- variably the most intense lovers of nature. It must be true also of MT. Dickson, for 'nhe Black Wolfs Breed has some mighty good fighting in it, and we are looking with pleasure for his next book for, of course he is going to write one.
 MT. Jesse Lynch Williams Is a young writer who is rapidly making an envialble name for himself. He Is the author of 1.-The Stolen Story and Other Newspaper Stor- ies," besides two volumes of college tales. He has been associated with Scribners s Magazine for several years, and has now decided to devote himself to literary ca reer, and will make his home in Princeton. MT. Williams will also take editorial con- trol of an academic journal addressed to the alumni of Princeton university.
 One of the best monthly reviews pub lished is .'TNhe Critic" edited by Joseph B. Glider and Jeannette l.. Glider. It is not d large publication, but its contents evince care and decided judgment in the selec- jtion, while the literary part may be said to possess the highest degree of ex- cellence. The first part of the magazine is contributed by "The Lounger," who is no doubt MT. Joseph Glider. And these re- factions and opinions upon literature and the authors of the day are fine pieces of
 work to be found In print. Of course MT Glider, as well as his accomplished and ' talented sister, is peculiarly fitted for this particular work His long residence in New York and many years of training in work
 with his pen, during which time he has known personally nearly all of the most prominent people in the literary world. gives unique interest and value to his work. Miss Glider, too, for so many years has been prominently connected with the New York Press, and has contributed books, reviews and literary work to sey- eral of the leading New York dailies..

a tomahawk in the hand of a 2oloodthirsty Indian. But having forced me to battle for life in an effort to run the gauntlet, having inflicted a wound which in- tended to produce death, their thirst for blood appeared satisfied, and every effort was made to nurse me back to health.
 While with the Indians I learned to do bead work and decorations, obtained a knowledge of their medicines, witnessed the ceremony of selecting chiefs and medli- cine men, was taught fheir beliefs their dances, sung their songs and spoke their language tairly we'll.
 After several months of captivity, through the agency of United States troops, 1 was exchanged for four Indian prisoners and returned to my home in Denver.
 This adventure was unfortunate it rob bed me of an education, as from this time I never had another opportunity to return to the east, and there were then no schools in the west
 Following my captivity and return to my home I made twelve round trips from Den yer to Missouri river points as cook for freighting train, my brother being a wagon master. Wood and water were scarce, and many times our only fuel was dry buffalo chips. At times the dreaded sand storms would oVertake Us, when nothing could be cooked without it's being unfit for food. During these storms travel was abandoned.
 Hardly day passed without an Indian fight, for the savages were constantly sweeping down upon the trains, killing the freighters or drving away the stock.
 Now the same journey can be accom- plished in comparatively a few hours in the modern palace car.
 In this way earned my first mercy, and when the excitement occasioned by the dis covery of rich gold fields ct Alder Gulch. Mont, induced my relatives to decide upon that as their future home, we were among the first to go to Virginia City. The trip from our starting point on the Missouri

 For three days and nights We were lost in the terrible 'IBad Lands,'' without water or food, but finally continued our route, passing through a portion of what is now the great Yellowstone Park.
 Here was a sight that will never be wit messed again-the herds of buffalo that roamed the prairies of the Yellowstone. Nothing was more feared than a stampede of buffalo With their heads down, for the buffalo does not look up, they would go pell-mell over the plains, and should even a high river bank be reached they would continue on their mad race, trampling to death all who fell beneath.
 have seen buffalo so thick that we would be compelled to stop our train and shoot among them to frighten and drive them away before we could camp. The earth at times seemed to tremble beneath their tread, but today all that remains as a reminder of those great heards of noble beasts are a few domestic herds.

 There was no response.
 Deacon White!" this time in a louder voice, Deacon White will you lead?'
 Still no response. It was evident that the good deacon was slumbering. The preacher made third appeal and raised his voice to a pitch that succeeded in walk ing the drowsy man.
 Deacon White, will you please lead?" The deacon rubbed his eyes and opened them wonderingly.
 ''Is it my lead? No--I just dealt!
