In A MINUTE.
Little Ones.


Ten, fifteen minutes pass, and no
s'ans of moving.
"Bessy, dear!n begged mother ner-
vously, tit is almost tea time, and |
you know papa can't wait tonight.
He said he would have to catch that
night train for New York;
Bessy jumped up at this with great
promise of alacrity. But her eyes
were still glued to the paper she was
reading, and which she held open at
arms length as she walked. The
result OF this whole souled devotion
to literature was a sharp bump and
racoil as she came in contact with
the edge of the kitchen door, which
stood partly open. TIE shock sent
her whirling to one side, where she
managed to trip over Baby Nell's
dolly cart and came down in gen
eral collapse among her fragile
| treasures.
$50 way, bad girl!n screamed Nell,
kicking and pounding with feet and
fists. you've breaked the noses all
off my walnut babies, and-there!
there! see what you've done!"
"0h, baby mine!" cried Bessy, re-
.pentantly, 'sister didn't mean to!"
And there were several valuable min
utes Consumed in pacifying the in
jured householder and ascertaining
damages.
"Bessy, dear!" said mamma, il
despair, "there comes papa now!
Set the teakettle in and spread the
cloth before he gets here, so there'l
be a look of supper about it,"
"Bessy" is photograph of girl II
family where I have been visiting.
There are SO many girls just like hel
that I am not in the least afraid OF
Miss Bessy's discovering any partic-
ulsr likeness. In fact, she was "wrlt'
ten up'' long, long ago, in an old: ole
book. We have the real, old-fash
Toned kind of boys and girls still-the
kind that used to say, respectfully
ssI GO. sir!" and went not.
Now, how much better'is that thar
saving II won't!" out and out, sc
that at least Pr. pie may know Wha
to expect of you? Then mother car
set the table herself if it must be done
promptly, and attend to your man
ners afterward. Then the fire won't
turn pale with hope deferred and &C
out in gray ashes while your highness
prepares to get ready TO begin to gel
that long promised hod OF coal for It;
nor father go himself to drive the
COWS home: nor the hired man say
wicked words when he has TO come
ND from the broken pasture fence TO
find Won as we'll as the hammer; nor
s.tbe twins'' have to wait despalrlngiy
through an hour-lo long "minute" Wnlle
the dav travels westward and play
time is over and the poor little dolly
cart goes to rack and ruin.
Don't say "In a minute!" 1t IS a
foolish word, shiftless habit. Say
.sThia minute!'' and live up to 1t.
The world is aching for this KIND OF
reimbursement Enlist at once!
THERE'S room in the ranks, and pro-
motion for all but desefters. -E1-

Findlay, o., Oct. 15.-The Standard
OIL case opened this morning, the
state continuing to try to prove con-
nection Of the Standard and subsi-
diary companies. John O'Brien, su-
perintendent of the Buckeye Pipe Line
company, was called but he asked to
be excused from testifying upon the
grounds that he might incriminate
himself The court ordered O'Brien
to answer questions.
O'Brien admitted that at the Buck
eye stockholders meeting in Lima, o.,
he voted Standard proxies but said he
did not remember the exact number
He said he was a member of the
Buckeye directorate, but only owned
one share. He said he delivered oil to
supposed Independent companies.
O'Brien's admission is the second link
in the chain of evidence for the state
for forging. T. A. Mclaughlin, anoth-
er Buckeye director, admitted being a
director of the supposed competitor
of the Standard.
O'Brien was recalled and stated that
he was also a member of the director
ate of the Standard of New Jersey at
the time of the Buckeye directors
meeting, at which he voted Standard
proxies.

A total of IA hits, two of them dou-
bles, tells the story of today's game,
and how it was won. Captain Chance
replaced Mordecai Brown in the
pitchers box in the second, although
he pitched the hard game Friday. The
Americans connected with his deliv-
cry for eight safe hits in one and two
thirds innings. Overall, who was
called in to retrieve yesterdays game,
was called in today, and held the
Americans to six hits and one run
during the rest of the game.
When the Americans assumed a
lead of six runs, the Nationals were a
grimly determined looking lot of men,
but, try as they would, they could not
solve DR.. White, the opposing pitcher
Time after time the heavy hitters bat
ted out easy ones when hit meant a
run. All told, they gathered six safe
hits off White.
The attendance at today's game was
1890, making the total attendance
for the series $4,000. The receipts fol
the series were s105,540. OF this the
players get $33,400. The American
league men get $4,000, and the Ma
tionals $S400.

Essen, Oct. 15.-The religious GER
emony marrying Bertha Krupp to
Lieutenant Won Bohlen, was per-
formed today at the chapel on the
Krupp estate, erected for the purpose.
The emperor was present, but de-
spite his presence. simplicity was the
keynote of the whole affair. The
bride wore lilac crepe de chine, only
two pages bearing the train. The
kaiser waited at the altar, attired in
the uniform of a field marshal.
At the conclusion of the ceremony
the emperor kissed the bride on both
cheeks. A simple wedding banquet
followed. The kaiser proposed the
brides health after an eloquent
speech, dwelling upon his long friend
ship for her father.
Following the banquet the bride
walked to place a wreath upon the
bust of her great grandfather, who
was a village blacksmith, and whose
snlithy still stands among the great
Krupp works at Essen.
The bride has settled upon the
bridegroom 100000 annually, uncon-

AMERICAN LEAGUE TEAM WON.
White Sox Now Champion Team Of
the World.

a Chicago dispatch of Saturday
night says:
The Chicago club of the American
Baseball league, is the champion team
of the world. Todays game was the
sixth of the series and the fourth VIC
tory for the American team.
When the last National batsman
had gone out and the stunning fact
that the new champions had been
created had burned itself into the
thousands of excited minds, the crowd
surged around the box wherein sat
Charles w. Murphy, president of the
local National club. He smiled game
ly at the request for a speech, and
said:
THE best team won. They won
because they played better ball. Too
much praise cannot be given to Pres
ident Comisky and Captain Jones, of
the American team, which. by unpre-
cedented pluck. climbed from seventh
place to the top of their own league,
and then topped off that accomplish
ment by winning the worlds cham
pionship from the team that made a
runaway race of the National league
contest

PAT DOES NOT TARRY.
Obnoxious Irishman Gets Attorneys
Advice Free and Leaves Post Haste.

p. c. Callahan, drunk, vagrant, ear
shaken the dust of Pendleton from his
feet and left for parts unknown, or at
least the police sincerely hope so.
This morning Callahan was brought
before Judge Fitz Gerald and the prin-
cipal charge against him was that of
having gnawed a fellow prisoner F.i
day night. AS on a former occasion
Callahan insisted that he should have
lawyer, a number of witnesses and
all the other accompaniments of a
trial. He s'gnified a desire to have
Mr.. Riley (Raley) defend him and
he was allowed to consult that gentle
man. However, there was no hope of
suceor from that quarter and Pat was
forced to look elsewhere for legal aid.
]. p. Winter, OF the firm of Winter
& Collier, was next consulted. .t,-tr
listening to an elaborate story from
his client. the lawyer addressed him
something like this:
''The charge against you is very
serious and am afraid could do lit
tie for you. My advice to you Is TO
leave the town as fast as you cam
Apparently the suggestion was well
taken by Callahan for he returned
not to the waiting chief or police, and
1t is the earnest prayer of the chief
that his prisoner has made a success
full getaway.

of the case of Senator Burton, of Kan
sas.

ment when a United States senator.
He now must serve six months in Jail
in Iron county, Missouri, and pay a
fine of s2500. The sentence was i'm
posed by the federal court at st. Louis

possibility of Burtons' legally escaping
punishment. The case had been pend
ing over IS months, and Burton is
said to have exhausted all his fortune
in fighting for his honor.

the state grange, arrived from Salem
this morning and at the court house
this evening she will talk about the
work that is being done by that or
ganization. The meeting will COM
mence at 1880 o'clock and aside from
the address by Mrs. Waldo, there
will be short talks by a number of To-
cal people. All are invited to attend
the meeting and those who do not
will miss something interesting for
Mrs. Waldo is very entertaining
speaker.
81 have noticed" said she this
morning, that the people of this
county are eager to cooperate in diff
ferent matters and that some efforts
are being made by the wheatraisers
and the woolgrowers to secure legis-
| lation that is desired. This is exact
ly what the grange is doing also, and
in these matters we can be of much
assistance. The officers of the grange
have already taken up the matter of
a jute mill at the penitentiary and at
the coming session the grange legis-
lative committee will be active in urg-
ing the passage of a bill providing for
the same. Not only do we wish to Sc
cure a jute mill but also twine fac
tory of sufficient size to supply the
Pacific coast with that article"
AS lecturer for the grange 1t is Mrs,
Waldo's duty to explain the purpose
and methods of the society where suf-
ficient interest is manifested by the
people. In the past she has confined
her efforts to the Willamette valley
counties, where the organization is
already strong. This fall, however,
she has entered upon tour of east
ern Oregon, and before her return will
have visited Umatilla, Union, Gillian,
Wheeler and other counties east of
the mountains. Later on an organ
izer will be sent to this section for the
purpose of forming grange organiza-
tions should such be desired by the
people.
At her meeting this evening Mrs.
Waldo will also touch upon another
subject, which is of much interest to
all women. and especially to those
having property.
Following the meeting here Mrs.
Waldo will go to Athena, where she
will speak tomorrow evening. On the
following day she will be at Weston.
on Thursday she will be at Milton,
Saturday at the Vincent school house;
Monday at Freewater; Tuesday, Oc-
tober 23, at Weston Mountain; Thurs
