DRILL FOR ARTeSlAN 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 $50 foot outfit and a six
horse power gasoline engine, but finds
it too small for efficient work.
He is at present working on 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 we'll depth of over
700 feet was drilled with not sign of
water, while in the new one water was
found at $50 feet and only few yards
from the location of the old one.
Mr.. CLANCY will purchase 20 horse
power engine for his new outfit and
will be able to bore for artesian water.
He prefers gasoline engine, az often
wells are bored many miles from a
watering place, and it is much more
convenient to haul gasoline than wood
and water.

ORlOLE ORE RUNS S6<,
Streak of SuIphfde Found in the
Hanging Wall.

Hanging Wall.
Susanville-Heaton & Haskell, who
have bond on the Oriole and are driv-
ing tunnel on the ledge. struck a
streak of sulphide ore on the hanging
wall that assays $64 in gold. The
Oriole is an old location, but little
work having peen done toward develop
ing it. A tunnel was started, and de-
tached bunches of good ore were en-
countered in a broken mass of ledge
matter. The workmen now appear to
have entered solid form alton and the
indications are that they will soon have
a 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 is 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 lie being ex-
tended across the gulch to the Bull of
the Woods. where the air will be used
to run machine drills.

OREGON NEWS OF INTEREST
CONSTRUCTING TRAnwAY.
naxwelI Nine will Run Five Stamps
All Winter.

Baker City-The management of the
Maxwell mine, on Rock creek, is in
stalling water power plant at its new

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 a 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
we've picked at random from car as it
came from the mine. The mill is run
ming night and day on very rich ore.
The Montezuma and Bunker Hill

Throw Rice at Brides.

The rice storm still rattles gayly
about the shoulders Of the newly mar
ried, in spite Of the fact that ,rgor-
GUS efforts have been made to sup
press it. Statisticians have counted up
the thousands of bushels yearly vast
ed in the ceremony, and have urged
that all this nutritious grain should
be put into the mouths Of the poor
rather than down the backs of the
opulent. Physicians speak of the eyes
that have been injured or made per-
manendy blind by the flying particles.
Half the people present secretly re-
sent the stinging hail, and the depart
ing couple are compelled to amuse the
public at large for the next few days
by shedding rice with every move
ment.
One must be young and excited to
thoroughly enjoy the rice scrimmage,
yet it goes on year after year, a rowdy
but a permanent adjunct to Lohen-
grin. Boston tried to substitute in
offensive white flakes made Of gela-
tine, but the public was not to be
moved from its rice orgie. Then rose
leaves were tried, but they, too, had
only a temporary acceptance.
And now the simple dinging of
handful is being changed for an elab-
crate mechanical distribution. At a
recent Eastern wedding breakfast a
bomb was arranged under the flower
in the center Of the table, and at the
perssing of an electric button this
blew up, scattering rice in every di-
rection. The next device will probably
be a rice shower, arranged on the prin-
ciple Of stage rain, and falling alike
on the bridal couple and everybody

THADDY's SONG

Once on a day they slipped away
q had 80 much to carrye ~e< rs
Visions of shades within the glades
Where dwell the elf and fairy.
Ny ways ram down into the town ,..-
Where all men strive for money!
And forgot the briery spot s
Where wild bee sucks the honey.
Then on a day In leafy May
Came to my house a laddy,
And as he grew found he knew s.s
What had escaped his daddy.
He takes me by the solemn, shy,
Sweet silent woodland placesi e-e.
We hear the beat Of elfn feet
We almost see their tacesl
Hoi but it's nne % to resign
The dull towns tool and worryi
And through his eyes grow young and
Where no ones In a hurry.

Teaching a Horse Bravery.

Expert horsemen believe that q
horse can be taught to do anything
that it is possible for an animal so
formed, and to be utterly fearless.
Thus, Of horses rushing into battle
with fearlessness that is magnificent,
although in the beginning of their lives
they may have been foolishly timid.
shying at everything unusual that hap
pened to be seen in their travels.
In order to teach horse fearless
ness he must be accustomed to all
sorts of sights ande sounds. He must
come to know that because something
that he sees or hears is unusual it does
not follow that it is harmful For
it is the unusual things that frighten
him. The horse is an animal of one
idea at time, and is not able to dis
criminate, so say the men who have
made study Of the horse.
While he will travel along quietly
close by the roar Of train he may
tremble at the futter of a piece Of
loose paper flying in the wind. 1t is
not the frightfulness of the object that
seems to alarm him, but the unfamil.,
iarity Of 1t. Horse trainers say that
the mistakes made in "breaking" and
training a colt Is that it is too often
done in the seclusion Of some country
road, instead of amid the sights and
sounds that the animal must neces-
sarily become familiar with later.
AS soon as the horse becomes fam
il1ar with anything and has learned
to believe that it will not hurt him.
he will stand quietly or trot along
peacefully, even though all sorts of
noises and queer sights are about him.
Thus the artillery horse will stand
amid the roar Of cannon, being used
to the noise and not knowing that the
sound predicts anguish and death. It
is well to accustom horse to unusual
sounds as soon as possible after he
is trained for riding or driving. 1t
renders him safe and docile, even
though he be spirited animal.
A certain trainer Of horses said that
an ideal school for horses would con-
tain thrashing machines, pile drivers,
steam drills, electric, steam and ele-
waited cars, band Of martial music
and a gang Of quarrymen blasting
rocks. A horse that was drilled among
such a bedlam as this would, indeed,
prove immune to strange noises.

CHLOE AND The SIILE.
~~%~~~~~~~

R s we came down the field OF
/A\ waving corn on Lavender Hill
go Chloe was talking quite heroic
ally of life. Her hair had been blown
a little into admired disorder by the
bluff wind ON the heath, her cheeks
were flushed with health and beauty,
and she was mistress and queen OF
herself and her domain. For me, my
eyes went from her bright and stgnif-
cant face across the gray-green oats
in which we walked breast high, and
back again in serene contentment.
What did it matter that she was pre-
pared to give battle to the monster
Man? Let him perish.
The hills were ablaze with light, the
fields with charlock; we moved In the
suns eye, but Chloe looked as cool as
a primrose in her muslin, despite the
heat of her opinions.
Il can't really understand sensi-
BILE man like you taking up position
like that" said she.
I had taken no position, except the
one by her side, but defended myself
weakly.
"WeIl, you see, we inherit these pre-
possessions and prejudices from our
savage ancestors, suppose"
That's just it." said Chloe eagerly.
"You admit it, then? Savage! OF
course, they were savages. You've
given away your case"

didn't say so. Il suppose have" 1
said ruefully. z
"You know it," said Miss Bohun
firmly. "It is quite absurd to pretend
that women are one whit inferior to
man, except, Of course" she added
quickly, "in regard to physical
strength"
"And even then there were the ANA
zons," 1 suggested.
She cast glance at me. Eyes, there

"Do-do you think so?" she said, hest

Synopsis of
Ewing 5 L ctul.s

AS an introduction, Judge
Ewing stated that Christian
Scientists neither invoke SYM
pathy nor supplicate charity.
They only ask that they be not
prejudged; that their belief be
investigated before it be con-
demned. They do not claim to
have established a new faith nor
founded. a new church. They
have only found or rather APP
piled the love and faith taught
BY Christ and practiced by his
disciples. People believe in
sectrian dogmas largely because
they have heen taught them
from childhood. Christian Scien-
ence is not antagOnistic to the
8churchs, however. It believes
they have done powerful good
to the world. Nor is it antago-
nistic to the medical profession.
That body Of men devoted to the
alienation Of. suffering, sacrific-
ing comfort and pleasure to re-
lieve pain. is worthy the greatest
tribute that words can pay. But
it differs from them in The me-
thods Of relieving the sufferings
of humanity. The practice and
belief Of Christian Scientists.
are based wholly on the life and
conduct Of Christ while on earth.
He preached one sermon, and
spent the greater portion Of hi
time in healing. His apostles
did the same, and the promise Of
"a continuation Of these gifts or
powers was given to those who
should come after them and do
them in His name. But these
! physical benefits Of Christian
Science, it's medical virtue and
its healing power, are only Incl
dents Of its reality. 1t brings
love for hate, hope for dispair,
and rosy checked health for
gnaWing disease. But neither
of these, nor all Of them con1-
,bined, is Christian Science in it's

'sence. They are the results

only.
The most stupudous moment
in the entire life of Christ was
when the disciples Of John came
to inquire if He were indeed the
Christ. Here was the sublime
moment in the great plan Of re-
demption. Here, while the world
being breathless on his answer,
was the time to say that which
would satisfy the scholars and
establish himself as the Re-
.deemer. Yet mark the answer,
uttered with the simplicity Of a
little child: Go tell John that
the lame do walk and the blind
do see. Z By that test the divin-
ity Of Christ was established
and the answer has come down
through the ages. From these
things which are the foundations
|of the beliefs Of Christian Scien-
fists they claim that
their belief is a religion pure
and simple a religion Of works
and a nearer approach to the re-
ligion that Christ taught than
men have known for seventeen
hundred years.
