Chinese buy Baby Girls.

Portland, June 29.-There is
small slave market flourishing in
the heart Of Portland, a fact which
is just coming to light. Baby
white girls, are being sold to
Chinese for a stipulated price.
While two of these cases were
recently discovered and in one at
least there is no question that q
baby was sold for $25, no one has
appeared to prosecute either the
individuals selling the babies or
those buying them. Slavery is
clearly against the constitution of
the United States, as we'll as bel ng
prohibited by the laws Of Oregon,
yet no punishment appears to be
in store for the dealers in human
beings. 1t is just commencing to
dawn upon the police that this
slave market il in existence and as
a result Of an investigation two
infants have been rescued while
two other cases are in sight. The
babes thus rescued are the children
of young girls who took this
method of Kidding themselves OF
their offsprings. The Chinese
transacted their business not with
the mothers but with the nurses,
for the indications show that more
than one woman was concerned in
the proposition. aside from
white babies in slavery there are
about dozen Chinese slave girls
in this city and fully so Japanese
girls in bondage. These foreigners
were imported despite the rigid
exclusion laws, and are owned by
highlander societies.

Big Claim Of Idahoan.

One of the peculiar claims for
damages filed with the Spanish
Treaty Claims commission, is that
of Walter Grant Dygert of Shes
hone County, Idaho. The claim
is for 500, 900.

the Spanish troops and was placed
in prison on a charge Of being con-
nected with the insurgents. He
alleges in his complaint that he
was refused communication with
the United States Consul-General
and his friends and claims $50, 900
damages on that account. He
also claims s25, 900 for for mental
and physical injuries, $4,000 for
defamation of character and $1,000
for extra expense account of extra
expense account Of imprisonment.
Dygert's release was secured by
secretary Olney, after correspond

dismiss the claim when it colm S

that Dy5ert ffered no good reason
for his presence in Cuba at the

This rare, wild white sheep is found
nowhere in the world but Alaska, and
few specimens for mounting whole have
ever been obtained. This species,
named Owls dali by Prof. Dali, differs
from its cousin, the Rocky mountain
big horn (Ovis montana), in color, o.
montana being dull brown in mid
summer, changing to a grayish drab
in winter, with light, ashy-colored
patch over the rump all the year, while
the o. dali is snow white at all sea-
sons-in fact, there is not a colored
hair on any part of his body. He is not
quite so stockily built as our big
horn" yet more trim and shapely.
Two of my specimens stood AZ inches
at the shoulder. His limbs are not
quite so heavy, and his horns will not
average as large at the base, although
quite as long. The horns of my largest
specimen of 1897 measured 41Z inches
in length and l4h inches in circumfer-
ence at the base. The flesh is the most
delicious of al wild game. In the sum
mer this sheep lives chiefly on the rich.
succulent growth of the Asplenium sep
tentrionale, which grows in the crevices
of the rock on the sunny slopes of this
rugged range. This beautiful animal
must endure great hardships to survive
the winters of this icy north.-Outing.
Missouri's poultry and egg crop last
year was greater in value than the
value of the combined shipments of
wheat, oats, corn and hay.
Compared with year ago, there has
been an increase in the whole northerl

cotton spindles only, whereas the south
has gained more than 100000 spindles.

No telephone message ever came and
the hat is still for sale.
This woman Is unusually clever in
her acting, for she deceived one Of the
most experienced saleswomen in the
business. Not many are able to do it
so successfully.
There are other tricks in the trade,
however. One Of them is to get into
the good graces Of a regular customer
of another house, either by an out-an-
out bribe or a fine bargain, and then
the milliner accompanies the customer
to the shop and helps her pick out a
hat.
The customer, being known, has ev-
erything in the store shown to her.
Then she may really buy hat and af-
ter she gets home the establishment in
whose interest she Is working, may
take it off her hands. To the milliner
the hat is cheap at any rate, for she
has learned through it all the secrets
Of the rival.-New York Sun.

RAREFIED HUMoRS.

High up on the Laramie range there
is little station called Sherman-a
mere watering place for trains on the
Union Pacific railway. Near by it Is
a gigantic pyramid Of stone, sixty feet
high and sixty feet square at the base,
which was set up by the railway as
monument to Cakes Ames and Oliver
Ames.
In the later eighties there arrived at
Sherman a shabby person Of melan-
choly aspect, who put up a shack
western for shanty-not far from the
monument. Ostensibly, he was pros
pecting, and he continued to prospect
for three years without accomplishing
any results so far as could be observ-
ed. At the end Of that period the man
from him a communication demanding
the immediate removal Of the monu-
ment from the premises, which he
claimed as his under the homestead
law.
The matter was regarded in hu-
mOrouS light at first, but subsequent
proceedings developed the fact that
the squatter had what the lawyers
call "case."
The stranger, it seems, had located
on section Of land which did not be-
long to the Union Pacific-the same
section on which the monument had,
by an inadvertence, been placed. He
knew very we'll what he was about,
and the upshot Of the affair was that
the railway had to pay $1,000 for the
squatters tract, in order to make its
title good.
The monument, by the way, is dis
tant only about 100 yards from the sta
tion, and it Is favorite trick Of expe-
rienced persons to induce green travel
ers to attempt a run to the pyramid
and back during the two minutes of
the trains wait. In nine cases out Of
ten they fall on the way back, bleeding
at the nose, the air being so rarefied at
that elevation Of $500 feet, as to forbid
such enthusiastically Evening

He WAS A SHREWD ONE.
The Pickpocket Had an Easy Thing and Knew t..

nou SoSy thiH6 ""S" 's'
THAT pickpocket I nabbed this af-
ternoon," said the detective, "is really
such a good-natured, pleasant sort OF
a chap that if he were engaged in some
other calling, I could almost learn to
love him. You know, he didn't make
any kick at all when I laid my hands
on him, and as we came along to the
station he laughed and talked in quite
a delightful fashion. He jollied me so
nicely that I bought him a drink and
in turn he told me how he had had fun
with kleptomaniac.
HE was in a department store, he
said, looking over the field for what
might present itself to the observant
mind, and during his wanderings he
saw a well-dressed, somewhat elderly
man nosing around as if he were seek
ing what he might devour and not get
caught at it. He sized the elderly
party up at once as a 'klept, and got
right on to his trail for whatever might
develop. The old party pinched num-
Der Of trifling things from various
counters, which he slipped into his
overcoat pockets, and finally he caught
a nice little gold watch, worth about
$40. The professional thought there
was enough in that to be worth looking
after, so he casually sidled up to the
old party, who had started in a care
less sort of way for the front door. He
stopped once to buy some little thing
or other, and the professional kept
close to him. In the crowd at the door
he deftly slipped his hand into the
old gents pocket and came out with
the watch, but the old one felt him
and turned on him. Don't say word,
says the professional, didn't intend
to wake you up; but since 1 have I'll
have to tell you that if you find fault
with me I'll tell how you got the tick
er. See?'
1.-The old party, of course, being high
ly respectable, with only this weakness
of the flesh, was so badly scared by
the remarks Of the professional that
he dropped all holds as soon as he
could and slipped away in the crowd,
leaving the watch with the last pinch
er The crowd didn't get on because
the professional was very delicate and
refined in his handling of the old party
and nobody suspected what he was
talking about. I guess he was telling
me straight, too, for he gave me the
pawn ticket and I found the watch in
soak, all right. ."-Washington Star.
