OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
Don't Play with the Bull Calf.

Farmers sometimes allow their boys
to become entirely too familiar with
the young bull calf by encouraging
him to be playful. Boys, do not do
this. Preserve your dignity when
you are about the bull calf. Treat
him kindly, but give him to under
stand always that you are the mas
tiers. Never let him know how
strong he is, and never under any
circumstances trust him. You may
have confidence in any other live
stock on the place, but you should
never have any faith in the promises
of bull. The dangerous bulls are
those with whom familiarity of the
farmer, or farmers boys, breeds con-
tempt. Some day in a moment of
ungoverned passion he will realize
his power and then there is danger
of a funeral. There is never any
confidence to be placed in a bull,
or in a man who cannot control his
temper. 1t is hard to tell which of
these is the most dangerous No
man is safe with either of them

How the Treaty was Made.

For about two months I worked
with my class, trying, above every
thing else, to teach them to be honor
able girls and boys; to study and
conduct themselves at all times to
the very best of their ability, no
matter whether / were in the room
or not-in fact, never to. feel that
they had to be watched to make them
do the right thing But all my eff
forts seemed futile.
One day on coming back after an
absence of about ten minutes. found
the room in general confusion. I
sat down crushed; / had reached my
limit. Just then Miss Whine asked
me to come to her room a moment.
I said. "No; my children cannot be
trusted; l must stay and watch
them" Miss W. asked what / was
going to do about it. / replied that
l could do nothing more; l had tried
everything in my power. This almost
broke the children's hearts. They
looked, if possible. more crushed
than I felt.
Finally boy raised his hand and
asked if two boys might go with
him to the cloak room. When they
returned they brought a treaty which
they had drawn up. eve hereby
agree to be honorable girls and boys
when Miss Deason is out of the
room." Signed by the committee of
three.
They had just had the subject of
treaties very forcibly impressed up
on them by studying Texas history,
and they had no patience whatever
with the Mexicans, who broke their
treaties so often.
Each of the three boys made elo-
quent little talks about what a dis
grace it would be not to keep the
treaty and how much it meant to be
trustworthy and honorable, and then
asked for signers. Every pupil ex-
cept one girl, who was offended
about something, signed the treaty.
That afternoon she was completely
surrounded by pupils begging her to
sign. She held out about two weeks.
but one day during recess she sign
ed, to the Joy of every one.
This all happened about three
months ago, and the treaty has been
KEPT to the letter. 1t has made a
class of the most honorable, upright.
conscientious boys and girls | ever
saw. They have adopted colors-
white and greenland a motto-"Be
sure you're right, then 90 ahead"
the words of the immortal Crockett.
who is their favorite hero.
Every Friday afternoon Miss
Whine comes in and takes charge, |
and they hold meetings. The treaty |
was made by these sixth grade chill
dren without any help or suggestion
from me, and by it's help they have
grown to be almost self-governing.
Their colors mean as much to them
as the red, white and blue means to
an American citizen.-Clara Belle

All winter.

Baker City--The management Of the
Maxwell mine, on Rock creek, is in
stalling water power plant at its new
mill. The aerial tramway, 5000 Ieet
long, is also in course Of construction.
Five stamps will be operated all winter.
Superintendent AL Geiser, Of the Gem
mine in Sparta district, came in q few
days ago, having in his possession some
of the richest specimens of ore yet dis
covered in that property. They were
from the strike recently made on the
500 foot level. Mr.. Geiser says they
were picked at random from a car as it
came from the mine. The mill is run
ming night and day on very rich ore.
The Montezuma and Bunker Hill
in the Cracker creek district
have been consolidated. Warren Gable
has been appointed manager. A 1900
foot tunnel will be run during the
winter to tap the vein.
Manager Stulles Of the White Swan

DRILL FOR ARTHSIAN WATER.
Bigger Engine and OUTFIT Is Needed
Near PendIetOn.

Pendleton-J. W. CLANCY was in
town recently negotiating for the pur-
chase Of $500 foot we'll drill. Mr..
Chaney has a 750 foot outfit and a six
horse power gasoline engine, but finds
it too small for efficient work.
He is at present working on a we'll at
the Furnish ranch, north of here, but
work was suspended on account OF
losing drill and new we'll was start
ed. In the old well depth of over
700 feet was drilled with not sign of
water, while in the new one water was
found at l5O feet and only few yards
from the location Of the old one.
Mr.. CLANCY will purchase a 20 horse
power engine for his new outfit and
will be able to bore for artesian water.
He prefers gasoline engine, ae often
wells are bored many miles from a
watering place, and it is much more
convenient to haul gasoline than wood
and water.

New York, Nov. 16.-The storm

states from the gulf yesterday and last

cane force as it moved up, resulted il
the most complete tie-up Of wire com
munication that the East has expert.
enced since the memorable snow storm
of 1883, disal ranged train schedules,
paralyzed trolley lines and piled up
several wrecks along the coast. A
downpour of rain and heavy snow
which accompanied the storm added to
the destructive force Of the gale. Many
telephone and Telegraph poles were
borne down by the weight of the wind,
while snow and ice caused hundreds of
wires to give way, cutting off whole
sections OF the country. Both the tele-
graph companies and the telephone
companies with the long distance wires
today repored their field of operation
restricted to the territory bounded on
the west by Philadelphia, on the east
by Boston and on the north by New
burg, N. Y. The big brokerage con-
Germs in Wall street, many OF whom,
under nominal conditions, operate
thousands of miles Of wire, today found
themselves practically helpless. The

NEW NOTE SENT TO PORTE.
America Tells Her She Must Fulfill
Her Agreement at Once.

Constantinople, Nov. 1.-THE Amer
lean consul at Kharput, DIR. Thomas
H. Norton, has been instructed to pro-
ceed to the lurco-Persiah frontier and
watch the operations of the Turkish
and Persian authorities who have un-
dertaken to arrest the Kurdish murder
ers of the American missionary, Rev.
B. w. Larabee, who was killed in April
last.
Despite the porte's repeated promis.
es to the American legation not to per.
NIT venders of bibles of the American
Bible society to be molested, the local
authorities at Angora, Trebizond and
Ordu still detain the venders who have
sold their bibles, and threatened to ar
rest anyone attempting to sell them,
The legation, therefore, has addressed
more imperative note to the porte
calling attention to this noncompliance
with instructions which the legation
has been assured had been given to sur
render the bibles and not interfere with
the work of the Dible house, and de-
manding prompt settlement, failing
which the matter would be referred to
Washington.

TENDER JUMPS THE TRACK.
Fourteen Hurt In Wreck of Wabash
Passenger Train.

st. Louis, Nov. 16.-A north bound
Wabash passenger train was partially
wrecked today in the outskirts Of North
st. Louis on sharp curve Of the Belt
line tracks of the Merchants Terminal
railway association near the west ap-
ploach to the Merchants bridge over
the Mississippi, injuring IA persons.
The accident was caused by the wheels
of the tender leaving the rails on the
curve. The train consisted Of com
bination chair and baggage car, two
coaches, one parlor car. a dining car
and private car Of General Superin-
tendent Henley, of the Santa Fe, who
was accompanied by his wife and
Chief Engineer and Mrs. Dunn. None
of those in the special car where hurt.
The tender jumped the track at the
curve, overturning the engine, which
almost cleared the track.
There were about 120 passengers
aboard the train. Nearly all the in
jured were able to proceed with their
journey after having received medical
attention.

ORI0LE ORE RUNS $6<.
Streak OF SuIphlde Found In ihe
Hanging Wall.

Susanville--Heaton & Haskell, who
have bond on the 0riole and are driv.
ing tunnel on the ledge. struck a
streak Of sulphide ore on the hanging
wall that assays t64 in gold. The
Oriole is an old location, but little
work having been done toward develop
ing it. A tunnel wac started, and do.
tached punches Of good ore we're en-
countered in broken mass of ledge
matter. The workmen now appear to
have entered solid formation and the
indications are that they will soon have
body Of ogod ore.
The Gold Bug people have sunk their
shaft so below the 100 foot level since
installing their steam plant, and their
ore stays with them, which shows the
shoot is getting longer with depth.
They will drift on the ledge when the
200 foot level lie reached.
The Badger has three shifts sinking
the shaft below the 700 foot level. The
mill is running steadily and the usual
amount OF concentrates is being shipped.
The compressor pipe line is being ex-
tended across the gulch to the Bull OF
the Woods, where the air will be used
to run machine drills.

nINES ADOPT EIGHT-HOUR DAY.
Telluride Plants are Not Likely tO
Discriminate Against Union Men.

Denver, Nov. 16.-NOtices were post
ed at the mills of the five big mines of
the Telluride district tonight that in
the future the eight-hour day would
prevail in the mills. The plants con-
cerned are those of the Smuggler-
Union, Liberty Bell, Tomboy, Nellie
and Alta.
1t was the demand for this concession
in the mills of the state that precipilat-
ed the strike in the mills and mines of
Colorado and caused the bitter strife
between the unionists and mineowners
in the Telluride and Cripple Creek dis
tricts. The minimum wage promised
under the new arrangement is So per
day. At one time the Western Fedora.
tion of Miners offered to accept $2.75
for an eight-hour day.
While no authorized announcement
to that effect has yet been made, the
general opinion prevails that under the
new order no discrimination will be
made against the employment Of union
men,
