A dead rattlesnake was suspended
in front of Medina business place
on Thursday, and 80 male residents Of
that sanity temperance O. village
nearly collapsed. They had been ac-
customed to seein' strange things, and
when their optics fell upon the fiery
serpent they shuddered and struck out
directly for the public drinking foun-
tain just as though they had been ac-
customed to taking water for years.
1t was great struggle for some of
these fellows to convince themselves
that their sense Of vision was not i'm
paired, and that what they saw was
indeed a reality. Wadsworth Banner.

A FISH STORY.

Oregon City, Or, May %. - The
run OF salmon is proving disappoint.
ing thus far. Monstrous sturgeon are
tearing the nets to tatters and the
fishermen are becoming dlsheartened
over their misfortunes. OF course
some salmon are being caught but the
mum Der is small compared with other
seasons
When fisherman has a net torn
to pieces by "a sturgeon the tempta-
tion to kill the fish overcomes his de-
sire to abide by the law. One fisher.
man this week sold an $50 pound
sturgeon which he captured In his net
at cents per pound. 1t is thought
the buyer took it to Portland and
spirited it into big fish house. The
man who had bought 1T began to study
the law. He found that while it was
unlawful to take sturgeon, nothing
was said about buying or having them
IN ones possession. Then he began
to carve the denizen Of the deep. He
obtained 100 pounds Of caviar which
he sold for SO cents a pound thereby
obtaining S85. AS he had paid only
$3.50 for the fish, he was already
ahead of the game. The meat of the
fish he sold at 10 cents pound as
''sea bass" and there was 800 pounds
Of it, he received $50, thus clearing
500 so on the fish.

ance desired. The following general
order from National headquarters was
read at the last meeting:
Memorial Day, with it's tender re-
membranes and sacred observances
of loving duty, is fast approaching.
Let each member Of our Order keep
the day in that manner which shall
seem best to her own conscience, and
in conformity to her solid obligations.
Let uslay our fairest flowers and
plant the starry banner over our he
roes, who waged war not for the love
Of conquest, but the freedom Of peo-
pie, and whose deeds are written in
characters of living light, and shall be
read and re-read as long as liberty
shall last. A Nations blessing goes
with them beneath their slow green
tents"
We must not sorrow because the
resting places of some Of our beloved
dead are unknown.
The new century discovers the rem
nant Of the victorious Union Army
marching towards the setting of their
sun Of life. A few are still vigorOu S
and able to enjoy the benefits Of all
that the Civil War has made possible
but with the many, care and sorrow
have 1aft their tracaS nm hnth heart
and brain.
Sisters, on Memorial Day let us en-
phasjze the mission of our Order
Heartily welcome the veterans and
give them all the material aid COM
fort in your power.
1 would that fragrance and beauty
in their declining years be so appar-
ent to them that the thorns of life
would scarce be felt, until, at last,
they shall have the best that Heaven
itself can give them-rest.

THERE ARE OTHERS,
Boise Would Like to Get That San
Francisco Road

While Weiser is far in the lead
with prospects of securing the great
transcontinental railroad that will
run through Idaho and straight on
to San Francisco, Boise has dim
hopes that lightning may strike her.
The Malheur Gazette published at
Vale, has this to say about the en-
terprise:
The Evening Capital News says there
will be railroad connecting Boise with
Butte and from Boise TO the sea. 1t AYERS
that this road will be built in the near
future. 1t is the purpose to construct
the line from Boise westward across
Snake river and ~ Malheur valley along
the line of the old survey from Yaquna
Bay, thus furnishing this inland section
with direct outlet to the sea- The line
would thus become another great trans
continental artery of commerce 1t
would open up'a country the I'll develop
ed resources of which are too vast for
comprehension, and is today the most at
tractive railroad proposition on the
American continent. Butte capitalists
are alive to thiS enterprise, at the head of
whom stands Senator w. A Clark, one
of the most active figures of today in the
building of western railroads. Matters
have been shaping for months past, and
we anticipate that it will be but short
time ere the citizens wake up to find the
iron horse with distended nostrils.

beautiful Malheur Several years ago

1t is the shortest and best route to the
coast and San Francisco and when COM
pleted this line will have IA great adj
vantage over competing roads. This
city and vicinity will be greatly benefited.
by this road. The people of today will
see wonderful changes taking place here
in very short space of time. Capitalists
from abroad are. visiting this city and
vicinity every day. This means some
thing. And again emigrants are looking
over the country and settling it up at a
rapid rate, and the only thing lacking is
railroad, which will soon be at our
very doors
