We are filling the old numbers now,

fifty Numbers that will never be re-

good many of the names can as we'll
be used as not, and make our list
more complete.
We have received list of the old
oranges of Washington, and find that
the first eigth ranges were organized
in Walla Walla county, from August
18th to December Doth, 1873. No. 8
was White River, in King county; No.
10 was Olympia; No. IL was Duwamish,
in King.
Many of these old oranges can be
re-organized, but many have been
replaced by new organizations by the

Palouse, Al. which has been replaced
by 1T; Puyallup, Al, has been replac-

GA, by 425; Oakville, 81, by 434;
Washougal, 80, by 90; and several
others that have been replaced by
others of different name.

Lecturer of the National Grange for

tour of the state, speaking in nearly
all of the grange counties, one or more
times. Generally one open meeti ng

ing in the awakening of the people to
the value of the grange as farmers

Diana spreads her silvery wings.
Above a sleeping world
And smiles 10 see earth's canopy.
A flag Of stars unfurled.
The dew drops gather on the leaves
OF every flower that grows.
But leave their sweetest kisses
On the petals Of the rose.
The diamond-studicd armament
Is but a reflex now
or the sparkling jeweled drewdrops
That glitter on earths brow.
Histi now | hear the mOcking bird
With notes so clear and tender,
The sweetest cadence ever heard
In wordless rythm render.
1t floats upon the still night air
In harmony divine.
Vibrating through each tree top
It's happy mate to find.
Hark! listen. there's the answering
call,
With piercing sweetness swelling
The story OF its deathless love,
In richest harmony telling.
Oh! the rapt peace OF a summers
night
When soft winds die in balm
And the vigil OF Gods eye is kept
To guard from gloom and harm.

Bomb For the Defense.

Pauls statement that Henry said no
was sorry he had done IT," dropped
into the camp OF the defense like a
bomb. The young mans testimony had
led gradually and dramatically up to
This climax, so unexpected and sur
prising that It brought gasp from the
crows while the lawyers for the de-
fcnse turned and looked at each other
with CONSERVATION in their eyes.
The witness was turned over imme-
diately TO the defense for cross-eXami-
nation, and Mr.. Smith disregarded
everything else the witness had said
and devoted himself almost entirely
TO this startling piece Of new testl-
mony Of the alleged confession
He wanted TO know why Paul had
not told of this at the inquest. He re-
Piled that he didn't say anything ne
didn't have to, because It seemed hor-
rlble to him to have to testify against
his own flesh and blood.
Rising in his chair and leaning hall
way across the counsel table, his voice
raised to menacing shout, Mr. Smith
poured upon the witness a torrent OF
questions, which he answered without
confusion or hesitation.
Weren't you sworn to tell the truth
at the inquest?" "Yes, and I did"
But weren't you sworn to tell the
whole truth?" II guess was, but
was in pretty bad shape at that time.
NV mind was wreck. didn't know
what to do; felt horrible"
II will be remembered that Paul
had an epiIeptic fit at the inquest and
was hysterical later for some time.
The first time he mentioned Henry
alleged confession Of Il wish to God
hadn't done it," he said was to Mr.
Wendenberg. the assistant prosecutor
about four days after the coroner's In
guest.
Included in the days surprises was
The spectacular appearance Of Mrs. Il,
V. Owen, of Dover, Del, mother of the
murdered girlbride, and later that OF
Mrs. Jessie Binford, mother OF "the
sirl in the case" From two vastly d.
vergent angles they supplied testi'
mony to Joint TO a motive for Beattie
Miling his wife. Then after pause
camc Paul Beattie, who may clinch
tha. evidence in a most concincinR
manner.

TEN THOUSANDS TEACHERS AND
NEARLY HALF MILLION PUPILS

A great army Of children, more
than 400, 900, will during September
hunt up books thrown aside last
May, don their best clothes, and
wend their way to the many school
buildings in field, village and town
throughout the State.
This is an event of the most inn
portance to the parents of every
community.
The child who is absent a day
or two in every week, or the youth
who Is kept out a month or six
weeks in the beginning of the sea-
son cannot make satisfactory prog
ress. 1t is estimated that one
half of the children who fail at
school do so because they lose
time. Many parents condemn the
teacher; they should blame them
selves for permitting the child to
stay at home for trivial reasons.
