packing Judge Whitman's part Of the
court of general sessions heard Ches-
ter b. Runyan, the defaulting Wind
sor Trust company teller, ttter the
excuse as old as mankind when he

against Laura Carter.
Runyan charged the woman with
instigating him to run up his steal
ings to a colossal amount and with
finally betraying him to the police, be-
cause he would not give her $4,000.
He had already given her $4,000, he
said, and understood that was to be
full payment for her services in hiding
him for a few weeks until the excite
ment should blow over

we are in hourly contact; but we ven

and immovable, against the bore with
statistics of the immaterial and inap-

argument he voluntarily initiates. and
who drags you in for the sole and simple
need Of something to argue at, not with.
This man is at large. and has no mark
BY which he may be lodged. and there
is no way Of knowing one Of his victims
until the coil Of his rhetoric and his
figures are about one. He is harmless.

For at the Vice Presidents banquet h'

Suppose he did! He's generous--the tai
he does not touch,
But leaves 1t to the ladies who enjoy
it very much.
He does enjoy the flavor Of a little joke
And is much pleased with the ladies
for the mirtN they do provoke.
1t is only on great occasions that we
hear from the cranks.
When candidates for President come
down and join their ranks,
Its only the great American people who
hurrah and shout.
When shortcomings Of the candidates
VIII surely be found out.
But when our guest Of honor was pleased
to come this way,
We all felt very sorry that he could
not longer stay.
We'd like to see the next president tarry

Because his patriotic. homely words

One more feature Of the visit made our
people shout
To welcome our guests from Portland
who would rather pout.
For our progressive, thriving town, their
heads did rather rattle.
They would sooner see the route OF
trade going through Seattle.
But when they are here with us. II
causes them to strain,
When they tell Us they are sorry they
cannot here remain.
We have such delightful climate, and
a balmy breeze,
For though they are lying to please
us. it causes them to sneeze.
There is one place Of all the earth ]
dearly love to roam.
For its forests and its wildwoods re-
mind me much OF home.
Its lofty hills and craggy crests. and
sunny mountain peaks,
Where the deer and elk do browse and
rest. from hunters safety seeks.
Young Rivers ripping waters are gently
moving by,
And Saddle Mountain raise its head
far up towards the sky.
And from its lofty summit. you can see

And cast their nets upon the waters
near New Astoria town.
The salmon here are taken by them both
night and day,
And from the product Of their toll
they make fine display.
Here il cast into the water nets from
more than thousand boats,
Which sail on the broad Columbia, or
On its bosom floats,
There is not seen in all Creation such
grand display.
As that seen in Astoria, when Fair
