WORSE THAN INTEMPER ANCE.-A
step in advance of the drink habit
has been advocated by Mrs. LeOnOra
Lake, of st. Louis, one of the lead,
ing temperance advocates in the
East. She declared. after mature
reflection, that she had changed her
mind as to drink being the greatest
evil of the country, and denounced
bachelorhOOd as worse than the mil.
lions who run drink dives or spend
their time in those resorts. 1t was
probably more the novelty of the
thought than rejection of its truth
that led to the Kisses which greeted
this avOwal. 81. is the bachelor who
to-day is the great evil of America, u
she said. " 1t is the bachelor who
fosters the rum evil and who spends
his time in dives. 1t is habits he
learns as q bachelor that ruin him
as q married man. Reformers should
drop the rum evil for a while and de-
vote their attention to this one cry.
ing need-more husbands IF men
can only be made to see their after
life all depends on an early marriage;
that with q good home and a good
wife life will be easy, then there will
be no need for us to fight the drink
evil. 1t will die of ITSELF"

QUEEN HARVEST.
By Lue F. Vernon.

1t came to soothe pcnsive hour,
That ROSY dream Of vanished years,
And brought again the mystic power
OF auburn hair and barley ears.
And down the past there came again
\ halo of September time.
\ vale of ripe and waving grain.
An autumn balm. a harvest chime,
The sunset on the stubble lay,
And amber lights in autumn c|r:.
Shone DER the cheeks that palcd away
The roses in the western skies.
All years Ger years have passed,
know,
And vet the. autumn hucS are there,
Though gold and brown may only sh""
The barley ears in auhurn hair
The roses " it'll the sunset sped,
The autumn died. the frost came down
The roses from the cheeks have fled.
And frost is on the locks OF brown.
Still in my heart the autumn glow,
That gave joy to earlier times,
Is warm Us in the years ago.
When harvest voices woke In Thyme.
And yearly when September comes,
In dreaming comes my harvest queen
Far DER the past my fancy rnam-,
And sunse,-lumincd fields CLEAN;
And still a brown-eved fairy cheers
And warns away the frost Of care.
A diadem of barley ears
Twined in the tangles of her hair.

HAS DONE HER Work LONG AND
WELL.-The big ferry boat that has
carried trains across the Columbia
river at Kalama, the past twenty
three years-Tacoma by name-will
be permanently retired from service
within the next fortnight, on COM
pletion of the newly-laid tracks be-
tween Portland and Tacoma, cross
ing the Columbia at Vancouver. 1t
is said that the ferry is still in splen-
did condition, never having been in
collision with any other craft and
never met with q serious accident.
1t happened, however, the ferry has
been lost in the dense fog at times
prevailing, and has had to anchor
mid-stream to keep from wholly los
ing her bearings, while card-games
have been invoked to pass away the
time of restless passengers until the
fog lifted sufficiently for a landing TO
be made. These conditions increase
the surprise that she should have
been so immune from the ordinary
risks of collisions. 1t has not yet
been determined what uses she will be
mt to.

How UNCLE SAN Is PILFERED.-
United States Treasury agent Rich
ard H. Parr, has told under oath in
New York, how Commissioner Shield
trapped the American Refinery Com
pany in a practice that cheated our
venerable Uncle out of over three
and half millions OF dollars worth
of that product. That fraudulent
amount is the result of seven ship
ments that ha been landed 1T the
docks Of Havcmeyer & Elders re-
finery, Williamsburg. In the course
of Investigation he made there, it
was discovered that steel springs
had been inserted into holes in the
beams of the wooden platforms of
the scales by which the weight of the
sugar was absolutely controlled by
the weight as taken from the steam
ship. When the steel springs were
removed, said Parr, and the lots
of sugar re-weighed, the weight of
of each was increased to fourteen
pounds. The seventeen sets of
scales on the sugar docks, by the
manipulation OF the secret springs or
steel wires. all registered false

PUNISHMENT OF LAND THIEVES.

PUNISHMENT OF LAND THIEVES
ROderick A. Hide, of San Francisco,
lately convicted of conspiracy to
defraud the government out of land in
this State and Oregon, was last
Tuesday sentenced to pay a fine of
$4,000 and serve two years in the
penitentiary at Moundsville, w. Va,
the maximum penalty under the law.
That ample prosecution is intended
seems to be apparent from the fact
that an employe OF Hide, implicated
in the fraud. was fined $1,000 and
sentenced to year and two months.

DANCING ON ARA ball was
given in San Francisco, Dec. 4th, by
Mrs. Henry T. Scott, by one of the
gilded butterflies, at ST. Francis hall,
that cost with supper and decOra-
tions for the $50 guests $40, 900. The
ballroom floor was q swinging one,
and the most elaborate affair of the
kind ever constructed in that city.
Its blue and gold walls and ceiling,
with black Misunderstanding floor, was
used for the first time by Mrs. Scott
and her friends. The supper was
served at midnight in both the white
and gold room and the large cafe, all
OF which were required to accommO-
date the number of guests at supper.
Mrs. Scott presided at table of
forty and her daughter at another of
thirty-five, which afforded an admir-
miuable way of establishing those
gradations of social position that are
to be held within invisible bounds by
memorable custom bounded by table
limits.

A QUESTION OF PRECEDENcE.-A
friend has sent the STANDARD a copy
of the Walla Walla Statesman, of the
2Sth ult., which contains an editor
ial retrospect of its life for period
of forty-seven years, very good
showing and a tenable claim being
true, but not that of being the oldest
existing paper in what was then the
Territory of Washington. The States
man was started, according to its
own statement, on Nov. q, 1861.
Now is the STANDARD issued its first
number and began continuous publ
cation on Nov. II, 1860, it has a
valid claim to year and ten days
precedence. The Statesman was eS-
tablished by Maj. Ray r. Rees, and
has since been published successfully
by w. H. Newell, F. ]. Parker, the
Statesman Publishing Co., Chas.
Goddard, P. c. Holland, w. F.
Guion, DR.. f. F. Fall and Seth Max
well, while the STANDARD has never
been under any control but that OF
this writer, nor been compelled to
issue on a half-shcll," or on wrap
ping or the reverse side of wall
paper. Nor has it missed an issue
during the fOrty-eight years it has
made stated calls upon it's subscrib-
ers, some of whom have been it's
patrons for that full period.
IT was understood at one time,
when there was q strong assurance
that Gov. Cosgrovc would be able to
assume the duties of his office, that
Mead would apply for the vacant po-
siticn of Supreme Judge, in place Of
Root. This is only of interest now
as manifesting the hoggish nature of
this modern selfish politician. Since
the executive Office struck Mead he
has been absolutely top-heavy with
vainglorious pride. He has Travelled
more with less profit, talked moro
and said less that will ever be remem-
ed, of anybody ever filling the position
Of Stevens or 4 Ferry. He seems
to think that lightning may strike
twice in favored spot, and if does
not it will not be for want of posing,

Ground Draw Before
Thousands

Indoor sports, under the sub-com-
an, opened at the Fishmarket last
night. The evenings sport culmi-
mated In Ground draw boxing bout
between Mike Patton and Demon

ceremonies, opened the evening with
n short speech of welcome TO tho
good sports of the Fleet.

work on the mat. Roberts, the cham
pion of the Territory, won in two
falls out of three. He got the first
fall in three minutes. Ashbury Sc
cured the second fall In six minutes
and then Roberts had his man on the
mat in two minutes. Jack McFadden
refereed.
Mike Patton and Silva then went
their fast six rounds. This amounts
to return to the ring of Patton,
who was once prominent local man
in the heavyweight class. This time
he went slow, and played safe" all
through. Though he seemed to have
a little the worst of 1t in condition.
he had his man distressed toward the
end Of the going.
Paddy Ryan refereed, and his deci-
sion of a draw was popular.

Patton is to be matched with Schloss-
berger of the U. S. s. New Jersey,
when some classy scrapping is prob
ably to result.
