Never Heard or HowelIs.

An amusing little incident was re
lated recently to William Dean How
els. 1t seems that a reader of many
novels from the West went into a New
York bookstore and asked a bright
looking clerk for IIowelS' last book.
Yes, we have it, replied the clerk,
and handed the customer a book by II.
G.. Wells. NO. said the Westerncr,
mot -HOwelis-W ID. Howells."
The clerk looked nonpluscd, and, going
to the back of the store, conferred
with another intelligent Hooking spec
tacled clerk. Both apparently were at
a loss, and the second young man came
forward and said: 'Will you please
tell me If he has ever written any 9th

for the passing of the bookshop he de-
parted to seek Miss Bellard's lnspira-

4 CuTfui scenes OF slaughter ana Arson
in the Caucasus.
The rioting in the Caucasus between
Tartars, and Armenians, in which
many thousands have been killed or
injured and millions of dollars worth
or property destroyed, is the most des-
perate outbreak that has taken place
III Russia for many years. For more
than a week fierce fighting has been
going on between the rival factionS
in Baku the great oil city on the shore
Of the Caspian, and in a score or more
Of scattered villages. The principal
cause of the outbreak, according to
st. Petersburg advices, IS the Moslem
hatred of the Armenians. The Tartars,
who are followers of the prophet. are
a cruel and rebellious people, brooklng
restraint of any kind and intensely
hating the Christians. How the first
clash between the factions occurred is
not stated in the reports coming from
the scene of hostilities. but the dis
turbance, once started, spread like

that of the man held ut Gladstone on

PRACTICAL ZOOLOGY.
Norris and Rowe's Magnificent
Double Manageries as an
Aid to the Study.

One of the pleasantest and
most profitable hours that can be
spent anywhere may be found in
the large new dou ole manageries
of the Norris ard Rowe Greater
Circus. There is not great
deal of opportunity offered else
where for a practical study of
animal life. The relations of
the wild beasts of the world to
mankind are but little under
stood. The narvels of creation
Iare no where greater than in the
strange and diversified forms OF
animate existedce as exemplifed
in wild and untamed, and un-
tamabie, beast.
In order to make knowledge OF
wild animals obtainable the
authorities of various cities have
established geological gardens,
but they are enormously expen-
sive institutions and only the
wealthiest communities can af.
ford them. 1t is because the
Norris and Rowe greater circus
make one of the many features
of their exhibitions a managerie
SO complete in every particular
that they are of incalculable
practical benefit to any and
every community they visit.
Years OF study of zoology in
books is not so effective as an
hour spent in this managerie.
And when during this hour one
NAV be amused by the antics o1
the monkeys, marvel at the
strange creatures of odd shapes
and savage dispositions and al
the same time be entertained by
the music OF the military band
an hour of diversion and study
is supplied that can be had no
where else. It is really a duty
to get to the shows early
enough to allow the children
ample time to see all of the ami
mails. An hour is not too Ions
for a hasty inspection of then
! all. The doors will be opened ;
; full hour before the big show
| begins when the Norris ant
Rowe greater circus appears here

What Davenport Said.

We are pleased to note that our
predictions in regard to the sue
cess of Mr.. Waggoner's book,
'Stories of Old Oregon, are be-
ing supplemented by the press in
general, and. in fact, by all who
have read it. We are permitted
to make the following extract
from letter by Homer .Dayen-
port on reading the book:
81 can't express my pleasure
on owning a book that pleases
me so much, and want to say
that it is one of the most inter
esting that I have ever read. You
are a capital story writer, and
your Indian stories brought the
tears and made me proud that my
father was a pioneer.
Again, here is another extract
from a letter from the same writer
to a friend who wrote to him
about the book:
ST want to say I have never
read SO interesting a book a:
"Stories of Old Oregon. What
ia writer Mr.. Waggoner is anc
how his stories can make yor
shed tears. He has a great flu.
ture before him.
This from such man as Dav
|enport, who is constantly in touch
with the literary men of the age
lis great compliment and car
but add a renewed interest to the
boSk.
