Lue's Opinion Of Manhood.

The place to take the measure OF o
man is not in the forum or the field,
not the amen corner, but at his own
fireside. There he lays aside his
mask and you may judge whether he's
imp, so-called angel, king or cur,
hero or humbug. care not what the
world says, whether it crowns him
with roses or pelts him with sick eggs ;
1 care not what his reputation may
be, if his children dread bis home
coming and his better-half swallows
her heart, SO to speak, every time she
asks him for five-dollar bill, he's a
fraud of the first water.
When his children rush to the
front gate to meet him, and loves
own sunshine eliminates the face OF
his wife when she hears the sound oil
his football, you may take it for
granted that he is pure gold, for his
home is a heaven on earth to him.
He may be rank atheist and a red.

Mormon, Democrat or a Republic
can, he may buy votes in blocks-of
five and bet on the election and he
may deal them from the bottom oil
the pack and drink beer or bourbon
until he can't tell story straight or a
silver dollar from circular saw, and
still be better man than the cowardly
little hypocrite who is all servity in
society, yet makes his home . hell

There is a man in Olympia who
owns wonderful hen. He has hen
that lays two eggs a day. including
Sunday, and does not think anything
about it. He has been breeding poul.
try for about three years and has final
ly got the thing down SO pat that he
can produce two-egg-a-day hen. His
hens are not affected by the heat,
cold, rain or snow. The ono that has
hit two-egg-a-day schedule is work
ing steady and will turn out 100 eggs
by the end of the fiscal year. He
thinks with little training the hen
will lay three eggs on Sunday, al.
though he is not prepared to say for
sure that the biddy will accomplish
this feat.
On entering most country barber
shops one is confronted by shelves of
mugs belonging to the regular patrons
and the designs on these are decisively
odd. On each cup there is design
illustrative of the profession, business
or occupation of the patron. On the
cup OF dentist we noticed that it was
embellished with q set of false teeth
as a means of Identification. Another
was that of an editor, and the design
on his cup represented paste pot and
shears. A tOx of cigars on another
indicated that its owner was a tobac-
conist. Another cup bore the design
of Tyre. We imagined this mug was
owned by q musician, but was in
formed it belonged 10 a lawyer.

PROSPECT OF A DIPLOMATIC WAR;
There seems to be probability that
England and this country will have
more than the Alaskan boundary dis
pute to settle, in the near future. It
seems that the old country claims
ownership of the Cayagan Zulu group.
comprising one large and fourteen
small islands, near the coast of Borreo,
While these were not ceded by the
treaty of Paris, the claim was made by
this country later and the islands were
formally coded to the United States by
Spain. The raising of the American
flag over them a few days ago by the
American commandant in the Philip
pines, has aroused quite a commotion
in the English parliament.

Crop Report.

Following is the weather summary
for the week ending on the Nth inst,
issued by the observation bureau at
Seattle:
The first part of the week was cool,
with ample showers; the latter part
was moderately warm, with consider.
able sunshine. The weather has been
favorable for all crops, excepting hay.
On account OF the ripeness of clover
there has been some cutting, whenever
the clouds cleared away for a time,
but there has been so little fair haying
weather that most farmers have post
poned their haymaking. There will
be large crop if it can be secured.
Oats and all vegetables. especially po-
tatoes, are in very thrifty condition
as a result Of the abundant showers.
The last two weeks of cool and
showery weather have been fine for
winter wheat, causing it to fill we'll, so
that the heads will be plump and
heavy, although the stalks are short,
the wheat thin and spotty, and very
weedy, as stated in previous reports.
Spring wheat, especially that sown
late, has received the most benefit
from the rains. The present prospects
are far better than ten days ago, being
for an average yield of spring wheat
in Spokane county, and slightly below
the average in Whitman county. But
the next ten or twelve days will be de-
cisive, as the spring wheat is generally
heading out, and will soon be in the
filling stage, when the greatest injury
from hot winds is to be feared. In
Lincoln and Adams counties there
have been abundant showers. and the
crop will be far better than there was
any prospect Of two weeks, or even
week ago. In Douglas county, where
the outlook for crop was almost
hopeless ten days ago, ample rains
have made great change, especially
in late sown wheat. and there is pros
pect Of at least half a crop, under con-
tinuing favorable conditions. In Wslls
Walla and the southeast counties
showers have been beneficial to all
spring sown grain and vegetation gen.
orally.
In Klickitat county corn and pota-
toes are growing finely. Cherries are
nearly all gone in Yakima county, and
apricots are ready to pick. The cherry
crop east of the mountains was large
and of excellent quality, as they were
not injured by excessive moisture, as
they were in the southwest counties.
Cucumbers and sugar beets are doing
we'll in Spokane county.
