Life In the Wild West.

Frank Armstrong was to meet Messrs
Moore and ElTod at the mouth Of Thirty
mile Monday about noon but he didn't
quite. The gentlemen left Moro at an
early hour that morning aud depended
on friend there TO telephone Mr.. Arm
strong TO that effect as soon as the Office
was open so that he could meet them as
per previous arrangements, The mes
cage was not sent until 5 +. M., however,
aud when the ralroaders reached the
river, about noon, tired and lootsore and
hungry az bears, there was no one to bid
them welcome. Nothing daunted. they
rolled up their tronsers--in bundle
and waded the turbulent John Day, their
hopes--and hunger--buoyed up with
thoughts Of the dinner they expected TO
get at the Graham ranch, on this side OF
the river. Imagine their chagrin and
disappointment when they found the
house deserted and tho pantry door lock-
ed. They thought they were hungry
before they made this discovery, now
they knew 1t. They had already walked
about i5 miles but they had started to
Condor and they meant 90 get there; so
tightening their bette, they tackled the
long, steep hill which leads to Buekhorn.
1t was nearly sundown when Mr.. Arm.
strong met them and there was joy in
the hearts OF two Moro men when he did.
The party reached Condor at $50 P. Nj,
and the visitors were good and ready for
the good dinner which was ready await
ing their arrival,
Gillian county people have been long
looking fora couple Of hustling stayers
to take hold OF the Condon-Arlington
railroad proposition and they are glad
to know that Messrs Moore and Erod
are here with that very purpose in view.

OriEin Of ~ Voloutins's Day

The origin OF st. Valentines day Is
obscure Saint Valentine was priest
Of Rome. who was martyred in the
third century. Douce says that It was
the practice in ancient Rome. during
great part Of February. to celebrate
feasts In honor Of Pan ard Juno. At
these times. amid many ceremonies,
the names OF young women were put
into a boz, from which they were
drawn by men. The pastors of the
early church. striving to eradicate pa
gan superstitions, often substituted the
festival OF some Christian saint for
that Of heather deity. In this case
they probably chose that OF st. Valen-
tine, which occurred at nearly tho
same time. but though the name Of
the day became Christian. relies Of the
old pagan ceremonies still cling to it,

Gov. Brady Of Alaska and other per-

Gov. Brady Of Alaska and other per-
sons familiar with the general features
and natural resources Of that north
ern most possession OF the United
States have frequently asserted that it's
soil and climate are far H1sre amenable
to the processes Of high civilization
than is generally supposed, and have
predicted that the time would come
when Alaska would be the home OF a
large and prosperous agricultural pop
ulation. Official confirmation of these
views Is furnished in a report just
made by special agent of the United
States agricultural department, who
has had charge Of an agricultural eX
pertinent station in Alaska. He thinks
that the territory will ultimately be
as promising a field for agriculture and
stock raising as it now is for mining.
The results Of experiments extending
for two years have established beyond
a doubt, he says, that such staple pro-
ducts as flax, wheat, oats, rye and bar
ley can be grown with success and
profit in almost every part of Alaska.
Thus one after another Of the old ar
guments against the purchase Of Sew

From the Portland Oregonian.--
The Chinese residents OF North Va
kima have many sacks Of rice supposed
to have been poisoned by tho onlcials
and missionaries in China. One mer-
chant has twenty sacks put away, and
refuses to eat any or sell to the Chi
nese. Those who claim to know say
that at least $500 ia invested In pos-
oned rice In that city. The rice is
sold to Americans. but the Chinese
purchase their supplies from local
merchants. They say that six years
after eating the rice the victims die.
The object OF the poison. It Is said Is
to kill of all the Chinese In the United
