Improbable Discussion.

The following excerpt, taken from
the WASHINGTON STANDARD of July
18th, 1S76-narrating an event that
happened nearly 33 years ago -

following animals and birds:

LOWER PRICE of LOGS. -

LOWER PRICE of LOGS. The Wash
ington Log and Brokerage company
has made a horizontal cut on all
grades of logs. The combine en-
braces all the big logging companies
OF the Puget Sound basin from Olym-
pia to the boundary line, and this was
done without consulting Senator Alex
Poison, the man who wants the cap
ital gran lands to constitute a corner
on logs for term OF years. The new
prices are as follows: No. , fir logs,
500; merchantable, s.; and flooring
Sll. LOggerS say that these prices
are lower than those in effect at any
time since the days of the panic of
1S93-97.

SOME idea of the increase of ex-
penditures by the general govern
ment may be derived from these to-
tails made by the Senate finance
committee for comparison. In 1884,
its cost per capita was $500, 46l ,275,
and the coming year it will be, &C
cording to the best estimates 81 ,044,
40l $50. The population then was
a. 900, 900, making the rate per poll
$3.50; it is now about go, 900, 900, and
costs every man, woman and child
$ll 30! annually.

A SOCIETY girl who married a Fill
Pine lately in Chicago, was captured
by her parents, and stripped of her
wedding tinery and given a kimono to
wear. They rightfully considered
that although she might not be
above an alliance with a semi-civilized
barbarian, that she had too much
dignity to elOpe in kimono, and SC
all her proper dresses were remOrse
lessly consigned to the flames. The
Oriental, whose name is Alarkan
called and impOrtuned the weepy
bride to fly with him, but she was
immOvable and persistent, and de
clared that unless arrayed in proper
form she would remain in her parents
home.

treat me as his equal. and be a chum
as we'll as a husband. Some men
seem to forget they have better

Another aspirant for cOnnubial

not necessarily be rich, but able to
keep the wolf from the door
One girl said that she wanted her
husband to love her all the time. and
that it was necessary for him to be a
Methodist.
a majority of the young women
writers surprised the pastor and the
audience by saying positively that
they wanted their husband to be the
real boss - They also declared
that it was not necessary that he be
handsome, wealthy, talented, or Il
swell dresser" But it was insisted
in every case that he be a man who
was capable of strong love. The
word love" was UNDERSIGNED in
most of the letters.
The feminine candidates for matri-
mOnial honOrs were also agreed that
their future better halves must be
good hearted, kind and affection
ate" Business or professional men
were not preferred by most of the
young women. but clean, honest
men who make clean money" were
desired.
In fact, the letters indicated that
the average girl has much better
idea of what is truly desirable in a
life companion, that may constitute a
never-failing basis for comfort and
happiness. than is generally conceded
to the younger members of the fair
sex-the misses in their teens.

SOME UP-To-DATE EQUIPMENTS FOR
THIEVES. = Thieves have adopted
hand-cars in Oklahoma with gigantic
sails to carry off the loot of bank
they had robbed. This method has
its Inconvenience, however, or
rather inadaptability to conditions
sometimes, to make it a reliable sue
cess. First they must have track
and car, with a stiff breeze blowing
in the right direction, or nearly so,
that will separate the rogues quickly
from the scene of difficulty. Then
they must have a mast, sail and rig
ging, which are not the usual equip
ments of a hand-car. Given this
equipment with favorable conditions
and it does seem an ideal way of
raising the wind" as well as using
it to the greatest advantage.
