Fire in Grain Field.

A disastrous grain fire was narrowly
averted on the Henry Parrish ranch,
about five miles south of Asotin, on
Wednesday. George Appleford, with
a large crew of men, secured the con-
tract to harvest the crop on the Far
IRISH ranch and he started in a few days
ago with his steam header and thresn-
er. Wood was being used as fuel for
the engine and the sparks set fire
to the standing grain. All hands imme-
diately set to work with wet sacks and
the fire was put out after some time.
The steam engine has been set aside
for the present and the work is now
being done with horses.-Lewiston
Tribune.

minute man when about sixteen years
Of age. He was nearly twenty-five
when his last recorded services were
completed. His period of intermit-
tent enlistment covered a period of
nearly five years and seven months.
The irregular troops of the continent
tai army were assembled and dis
banded as occasion required, which
explains the frequent changes of as
signment to companies and regiments.
He was nearly four-score years old
when he was married to Esther Sum-
ner, the widow who survives him.
Mrs. Damon has been confined to her
bed for nearly a year, and has lost to
a great extent the use Of her limbs.
With the exception of slight deaf
ness, however, she retains here facul
ties remarkably. Last April her
pension was increased by the govern
ment to $24 per month.

ceased was ostracized from Chinese So

rangement and that little was known

the Alta street noodle house volunteer
ed the information that Guen had re-
fused to take food during the last ID

INTERESTING EXHIBIT SHOWING
MANY INCIDENTS IN LIFE OF
ABRAHAM LINCOLN.
Professor Lyman Has Returned and IN
in Charge Of the WaIla Walla
County Exhibit.

Special correspondence.
PORTLAND, Aug. Lone Of the
most interesting things In the fair to
Walla Walla people, as we'll as to every
other citizen of the Union, Is the MI
nois state building 1t is an exact re-
production of Lincoln's house at
Springfield, the only house Lincoln
ever owned. 1t is very plain looking
structure, but as one enters and gases
at the memorials of the best loved
American, one is filled with feelings Of
awe and reverence. The house is q
symmetrical one. First, a small hall,
which opens into a room on each side.
then back of each Of these rooms Is
! another. The first room on the right
is an office and reception ROOM IN
the next room are displays of agricul-
ture and of the state university. The
first room on the left contains a large
number Of pictures showing men and
incidents in the history of Illinois.
The second room Is devoted to Lincoln.
Along the wall are different sections
illustrating different periods In his
career. The first Is devoted to his
ancestry, the second to his youth.
There is one showing Lincoln as sur
veyor with charts drawn by him; one
as lawyer, with legal opinions; one AZ
legislator; as president; one showing
his family life and finally one dealing
with his assassination and death. IN
this one are the last words that Lin
coin wrote before the fatal shot. There
are a number of letters written by
Lincoln to Grant and others, each Of
which he signs simply and plainly, "A.
Lincoln" Everything impresses one
with the simple and noble character OF
this wonderful man. Upstairs is Lin
coins bedroom containing the old
fashioned bed and a few pieces Of
simple furniture.
