East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1906-12-15

Whirlwnd the young man who was
later doomed to ride to Waiilatpu to
find the great missionary massacred
by the very people whom he sought
to save.
Silently squaw slips in in moe
casined feet and squats down in the
distant corner, to listen and drink in
the strange story of the babe in the
manger, of the atonement, the cruci-
fixion, the glorious resurrection.
Dimly her mind catches a CLEAN of
its splendid significance. A light
comes into her eyes, is reflected in
the soul and shines out through her
bronzed face in a smile OF wondering
sadness.
The words of the missionary are
simple. He is not speaking to an
audience which can follow his elo-
quent flights, so must creep along
within reach of their understanding
Standing up among the Indians who
remain seated flat on the ground
Whitman read the simple story of the
star In the east, the babe and its

HORSES LOVE OF HOME.
Longing for Familiar Stall One ot
 the Animals Strongest 5 Instincts. ..."

The strongest instinct in the horse is that of home-all his thoughts and interests lie there-and the most wear ing pain he suffers is that of nos talgia-the longing for the familiar stall and the well-loved surroundings, says Outing Magazine What wonder that our pets almost invariably return to us from such unhappy experiences mere shadows of their former selves, and in such wretchedly bodily condi- tion that it is months before they re- gain their usual health and spirits. We blame the man in charge, poor feed, bad stabling, insufficient pastur- age, etc., and overlook entirely the fact that 1t is our own fault, and the direct result of heart-hunger which no grass, grain or roof-tree could entirely as. suage. Of course, the little-used muscles have, from lack of exercise, shrunk and lost their firmness and plumpness; the crest has fallen from the same cause; poverty lines" appear in the quarters and shoulders; the tail and mane are all out of shape, or all worn away; the feet stubbed of; the coat dingy and sun-burnt; the skin full of all manner of scars, cuts and abrasions; all these are the effect, not the cause, of the lack of bodily condi- ton which is two-thirds due sheerly and solely, in the high-bred. nervous. sensitive horse, to simple homesick- ness. s..s.

BELONG IN ANSONIA
Refugees Who Escaped From the Earthauake and Are Now in
 Colorado Springs.

Colorado Springs, Col, April a. Refugees from San Francisco con tinue to arrive here. A number came in last night. One party was composed of s. s. Van Etten, city passenger agent of the New York Central at Worcester, Mass, Mrs Van Etten, MT and Mrs H. H. Williams of Riverhead, N. Y., and Mir and Mrs s. D. Wyatt of Fond du Lac, Wis.
 Mir Van Etten was a guest at the California hotel. They escaped from the building clad only in their night clothes.
 ''I feel that we owe our lives in a great measure to a 16-year-old mes senger boy" said Van Etten last night.
 This lad, whose name I regret to say I have lost after taking it down in my note book, succeeded through his friendship with the captain of a towboat in getting him to take us over to Oakland after myself and two other couples had tried in vain foc several hours to get some one to make the trip"
 Other refugees who have arrived here are MT and Mrs E. N. Clark and Miss Winnifred Clark of Ansonia. Conn. A number on board the train continued their journey eastward.

WATER TANK IN ROOM
Chorus Girl Rudely Awakened From Sound Sleep By the Quake-Is
 Now in a Pitiable Condition.

Denver, Col, April 23.-May Col lins, chorus girl connected with the Cherry Blossoms" company. which was playing at the California theater last week, was in pitiable condition on arrival here yesterday as the result of her experience in the earthquake disaster. Miss Col lins was asleep in the room in the Hotel Raleigh when the shock came. A water tower was toppled over against the hotel and crashed through the wall into Miss Collins room. Along with other members of the company she escaped into the street but disappeared. AS the com- pany was boarding a train at Oak land, preparatory to leaving for the east, Miss Collins ran screaming through the crowd and jumped aboard. She immediately became hysterical and was with difficulty quieted. All the way to Denver at Jacks of hysteria were frequently re- current. The sight of any animal caused her to cry out in terror and beg for protection. The supposition is that Miss Collins, while trying to escape from the stricken district down town, encountered some of the frenzied animals, causing her to fear the sight of beasts of any kind.

GOVERNMENT PUBLICATIONS
Distribution of Official Volumes an
 Element Apart from Their Usefulness.

The printing law of 1895 (still in force) specified the edition and dispo- sition of the principal annual publica- tions of the government. writes w. s. Rossiter, in Atlantic. The total mum ber"-whether single volumes or sets of "parts"-authorized by this law was 9s2, 500, afterwards increased to l. 1l5,600. Of this aggregate congress re- served for itself as quota sS per cent
 The quota arose. and has fiourished, principally for two reasons. Naturally enough, the voter rather likes to ob- tain something for nothing. and the receipt of expensive publications from the member of congress for the dis trict involves an element of fiattery, just as does the receipt of package of agricultural department garden seeds from the same source. The books may not be of any practical value to the recipient. and the seeds may never grow, but the object of their dispatch has been secured. Thus there has grown up in connection with the distribution of official volumes an element totally apart from the use fulness of the publication or the ap- propriaieness of it's destination.
