To the Womens Christian Temperance
Union these lines are respectfully inscribed
by the author. II they shall be the means OF
making ONE human being better or more

Oh, the demon of rum, will the time ever come
That shall bring us glad tomorrow?
For we long for the day that shall bring us ray
That will end the long night of our sorrow.
When the faithful wife VIII find JOY In her life
Ard know that her husband and son
Are alking upright and will come home at

And their manhood shall not be undone.
Oh where is my girl, with her hair that did
curl.
And her cheeks Of bright rosy bloom;
Is she wasting her life as a drunksrd's wife,
Going down to potter's field tomb?
Is she spending her life as an honored wife.
Settled down in the comforts Of home;
Is she happy tonight in circle Of light,
OR STRANGER DOES sHE RoAMe,
Oh where is my son when his days work is
done,
To his own hearth does ne go;
Or does he go down to slum In the town
Where the waters of misery tlow2
Is he slipping he freth from villainous broth
That was brewed in the regions of woe
Does he slnbber and splutter and lie in the
gutter
Where the waters of misery flow?
Is he wasting the time of his manhood's prime,
Is he laying up treasures OF woe;
Is he breathing the fumes Of the "horrid
Saloons"
Whore the waters Of agony aow7
is he standing upright in his manhood's
might,
As man of nobility should;
Or does he yield and abandon the field,
AS man without character would?
will trust that my boy through his life will
enjoy

Which he never can DO unless he Is true
And his fe is as pure as his song.
THen let Us abide the fountain beside
Where the rainha rs Of purity CLAW,
Lest we lie evermore on that desolate shore
Where the waters of pestience flow.

Last Saturdays Evening Telegram
contains a quarter page picture of Hood
Rivers company Of young lady zouayes,
with cut of the drillmaster, Major Us.
Booth. Accompanying the picture is
the following write up:
For the purpose Of combining thor
ough physical exercise with graceful
military precision, number of young
girls OF Hood River have been organized
into an amazonian drilling club, known
as the Hood River Zouayes. The COM
panv was organized less than two months
ago by Major j. S. Booth, an experienced
instructor in military evolutions, who
was in the Oregon National Guard II
years The company of female soldiers
are said to have picked up the drilling
tactics with surprising quickness. All
eyince a desire to become well versed
in the exercises. They attend the drills
Tuesday evenings in the armory with
marked regularity, and great deal Of
interest is being taken in them by the
parents and friends OF the young ladies
in Hood River.
Hood Riyer, by-the-by, is noted far
and wide for great big apples and pretty,
red-cheeked girls. That they will make
an imposing appearance when lined a.
for march no one for a moment doubts.
Portland would have been entertained
bv the zouaves on the occasion OF the
president visit-alas! that there should
have been 80 many ifs in vain on that
great day which did not happen-and
the zOuaves as well as the public missed
a great treat The girls are nattily uni
formed and are quite advanced in pro-
ticiency in sword exercises and attract
i've drills Major Booth is popular as a
drill.master, and in the course of time,
ii is stated, he will raise the funds to
equip the young ladies with more com
pIete, perhaps it were well to say real
istic accoutrements.
The names of the members OF the COM
pany are as follows:
Major j. s. Booth, drill master; Nell
Clark, commanding; Ethel Entric n,
first sergeant; Minnie Perris, second SER

Stevenson Celebrated i.

The people Of Stevenson enjoyed the
Fourth with a good celebration. There
were the usual exercises, and a stirring,
patriotic oration by District Judge Mil
Ter OF Vancouver, with races in the after
noon and fire works in the evening. An
excellent picnic dinner, free to everyone
added much to the good feeling of the
day. The boys race was won by Warren
Edwards, as was the horse race. The
mems foot race was won by Easterbrook.
A serious accident in the evening marred
the pleasure of the fire works. ii SLY,
the school teacher at Stevenson, touched
off large bomb with a match and a
premature explosion severely injured
his face and hands.

The condition of Bishop Littlejohn, of
Long Island, which was so serious last
summer and fail as to cause some anx-
lefty, has so far improved as to permit
him to take up his work again. He is
keeping such diocesan engagements as
his strength will allow. and expects soon
to be able to assume all of his duties.
A story is being told about the lit
tie King of Spain. He is, it appears,
great admirer of the Prince of Wales.
and of course he has been reading in the
continental press about the imminent
downfall of che British Empire. So he
wrote and sent a letter to the Prince to
assure His Royal Highness that if he was
in difficulties he could count on the King
of Spain for support and sympathy.
The death is announced in England
of the Rev w. Courtenay Clack, who
was for many years Whip TO the fam
Gus parson Jack" Russell. Mr.. Clack,
who was popularity known as BILLY"
Clack, and had nearly completed his nine
tieth year. himself formerly owned two
packs in his native Devon. The breed
of hunting parsons is by no means extinct
i'm Great Britain; there are at least three
clerical masters of hounds and several
others who own packs-sub rosa, for fear
of episcopal displeasure.
For some time past the Kaiser has
