Men and Girls Get DuckinQ.

Wenatchee.-In miraculous man.
ner more than two hundred persons
escaped drowning near Chelan falls
when five acres of ice broke loose
from the shore of Lake Chelan and
carried its human freight away from
land. The crash came without mo-
ment's warning. The skaters rushed
toward the shore and plunged into
the icy waters of the lake to reach
safety. Several girls were hurt, and
scores were wet to the skin.

See. Pomona Grange.

There has since last March been
few oranges in Chelan county. and
this winter Bro. Steers, State Depu-
ty, has organized Chelan Co., Pomo-
Ma grange. There are some hustling
Patrons in Chelan county, and the
Pomona Grange Immediately began
making itself heard. The grange i'm
mediately became recognized in the
County as an organization, the mem-
bers of which were intelligent and
competant, who knew what they
wanted, and how to go about it to
get it. They took action touching up
Senator Smithson of their senatorial
district in regard to his ignorance
regarding the interest OF the grange
in pending insurance legislation, as
indicated in his reply to j. T. Comp
ton, Co. Deputy of the grange when
he requested the Senator to act in
the interest of the grange. The We
natchee papers are giving grange mat
ters quite a bit of space recently. The
Pomona Grange among other things
took action looking to a system of
employing help in the Wenatchee or
chards, and will purchase their spray
ing material, paper and boxes for
packing fruit through grange par
chasing committee, which will, no
doubt, grow into permanent pur-
chasing agency. Besides the work be-
ing done in Chelan county by State
Deputy Steers in organizing new
oranges, Hon. Mortimer Whitehead,
ef the National Grange made four ad-
dresses to the oranges of Chelan Co.,
this week. Chelan county is rapidly
coming to the front in grange mat
terS.

GRANGE DOINCS

l wish to urge upon the secretar-
les of all the subordinate oranges in
Whatcom county the great benefit It
may be to us to avail ourselves of
the use of the columns of the Tribune
The more grange news there is in
the paper, the more valuable it is 10
US all. The way to get the grange
news in it is for every secretary TO
send in items that will be of interest
to the membership, or perhaps 1t
would be better if each grange would
appoint correspondent expressly for
the TRIBUNE. What is the good of hav-
ing made this paper our organ Tor
this County, if We do not use it. Let
us make it in fact, as well as name,
our organ. 1t can be made the med
ium of communication between grange
that will result in binding our mem
bership closer together and make
our efforts more efficient. Let us
have general move in this direc-
ton all along the line.

PRIDE ON BOTH SIDES.
A Story of the Duke of. Somerset and
 the Artist Seymour.

Story of the Duke of Somorset and
 the Artist Seymour.
 We have all heard of the ''prOud" Duke of Somerset. but we do not all know of the occasion on which his pride had fall. The story is told in '"The Glenbervie Journals"
 It seems that the duchess had sent for Seymour, celebrated painter of horses, to make the portrait of race horse at Petworth. Seymour during his stay used to dine in the stewards room, but one day the duke was so pleased with the picture as 1t ad- vanced that he desired that he would dine at his table.
 At dinner Seymour, who probably had not been expected to mix in the conversation, took occasion to say that he believed he had the honor to be re- lated to his grace. This gave such of- fense that he was either sent away or put so much out of humor as to go away from Petworth without finish ing the picture.
 Afterward the dukes pride gave way to the desire he had of possessing a good portrait of his favorite horse, and he ordered his steward to write to Seymour and engage him to return to finish his work at Petworth.
 Seymour directed his reply to the duke himself in these words: Your pride would not allow that I am of your family. To convince you that I am. your picture shall remain as 1t is; for, by -, l won't comep'

Tho Word "Chap.U

"Chap" is simply an abbreviation of chapman, the merchant of former days, and is derived from the Anglo-SaxoD "ceap," a bargain. The word almost brings before us the loud voiced cheap Jack" as he cries his wares in the cheaping or market. Chap seems to have come into common use at the end of the sixteenth century and is rarely mentioned in books before 1700. Johnson does not recognize 1t, though Steele uses it in 1712 in the Spectator eff you want to sell, here is your :hap'D, and 1t Is found in Bailey's Die tionary, 1731. Its original meaning of 2 buyer or. seller still fingers in the dialects of many counties. Coupled with the adjectives old, young, little. poor, it was and is used in familiar language, as is It's relative, queer Customer" Todd, ISIS, aff1rms that good chap meant one to whom credit might be given. whereas not qualified by good 1t was a term of contempt London Standard

For over three de- cades Foley's Honey and Tar Compound has been a standard remedy for coughs, colds and affections of the throat, chest and lungs for children and for grown per sons, and it retains to-day it's pre- emil hence above all other preparations of Its kind. Folsy's Kidney Pills are equally effective and meritorious. A. Jacobsen.

 Modern Times.

No Material Change Dn Its CourSO ln
 Modern Times.
 Much has been said in recent years in regard to the changing route of the gulf stream. Indeed, the character of this steady, consistent and answering body was getting SO maHgned that the government looked into the matter. with the result that this mysterious current of the ocean was entirely vim dicated. Experts declare that there is no change in the course nor has there been for many years.
 No other physical feature of the ocean is subject to more persistent misinterpretation than is the gulf stream. All vagaries of climate are laid to its charge. It is pet theory of many that the temperature of Eu- rope is greatly affected by it, but this Idea is held by high authorities to be erroneous It is not as extensive as is commonly thought. Practically start ing at the Florida strait. where its volume is made up by the union of currents, 1t ceases to be a true cur rent by the time 1t reaches the south ern limit of the Grand banks, where 1t becomes surface drift. governed by the winds
 The government experts aver that there has been absolutely DO material change in the gulf streams course in modern timeS.-New York Press.

hnsnital Eiuhtera.

Into a hospital came two men with battered faces
 Street fight?" said the surgeon in charge.
 It was. Under the doctors directions orderlies moved beds and patients around until the newcomers were separated the length of the ward.
 "In this case that precaution may not be necessary" he said, but after a street brawl 1t very often is. Before we learned the peculiarities of those people 1t happened more than once that two men who were mortal enc mics were brought in and laid out side by side. Each saw his advantage and was foxy enough to keep still until both were left alone in adjoining cots; then they sailed into each other tooth and nail, trying to finish the job that had been interrupted in the street. Once or twice they nearly succeeded. Now chance patients with pugilistic tendencies arc placed so far apart that neighborly interchange of uppercuts Is out of the question.-New York Press

It has been proved that two odnr>. which do not seem to have anything in common. that of putretied cheese. and that of pineapple. are so closely allied from the chemical standpoint that 1t takes but a few minutes to transform an intense stench into a sweet fragrance. This curious experi- ment ls easily made and requires but a small amount of three chemicals vaierianic acid. sulphuric acid and amylic alcohol. Care must be taken not to spill over the fingers or dress any drop of the first two named liQ- uids.

But in all the years when Sir Henry was breaking his neck to run back and forth between Victoria's royal residences and the cities where he was playing. to set up his scenes and act for the old queens amusement and the entertainment of her guests, he was never once officially received by her at court. He had many private audiences, which were much the same for him as to have chat with any other old lady; but, although he was the pOssessor of a royal title, a favor ite with the royal family and the greatest actor of his age, he never was invited or commanded" as it is called, to Buckingham palace.

Thrifty Harry Eaudar.

There are many stories told of the wonderful thrift of Harry Lauder. the Scotch comedian. Once when Lauder was in New York he was in a wine buying party at the AStOr. Everybody but the Scot bought wine. When it came his turn to buy he sighed.
 'WeIl. boys" he said. tits my turn to treat. Come along with me. I've got fine bottle of old Scotch up in my room. 1 brought it over with me-"
 On another occasion he was with drinking party and instead of liquor he took cigars. for which those who treat ed him paid 30 cents apiece. Harry put ali but one in his pocket. He spent two hours smoking that one. After the drinking was over the little comedian went to the cigar counter and said to the man in charge. ''I say, man. wud ye mind givin' me ten cent cigars for these fatty cent onesY' The exchange was made. and Harry went to his room with i've times as many cigars as he had at the start.

Courage and the Flsa.

Courage is resistance to fear, mas- tery of fear, not absence of fear. Ex- cept a creature be part coward, it is not a compliment to say 1t is brave; 1t is merely a loose misapplication of the word. Consider the hea-incom- parably the bravest of all the crea- lures of God if ignorance of fear were courage. Whether you are asleep or awake, he will attack you, caring nothing for the fact that in bulk and strength you are to him as are the massed armies of the earth to a suck ing child. He lives both day and night and all days and nights in the very lap of peril and the immediate presence of death and yet is no more afraid than is the man who walks the streets of a city that was threatened by an earthquake ten centuries be- fore. When we speak of Give. Nelson and Putnam as men who didn't know what fear was" we ought always to add the nea a-and put him at the head of the prOcession.-Mark Twain.
