SKETCH OF WOODROW Will SONS CAREER

, expressing scorn and disgust for Ital-
ians.
A course of lectures delivered at Co
lumbia University in 1913, contained
the substance of his first book, Con
gressional Government" and they
were brought up-to-date by his attempt
to show how in the years between 1886
and 1908 responsibility gravitated to-
ward the president of the United
States.
Mr.. Wilson's second book, The
State" is now used as a text book in
many schools and colleges. This was
! followed by two books of essays. Then
came George Washington" and The
History of the American People
Mr.. Wilson has made countless edu-
cational addresses, and has written a
great number of essays on political,
educational and economic topics which
have never been put into book form,
His style of writing is clear and Wig
orous. and his diction, both in writing
and speaking, is noteworthy for its
choiceness,

SHOOTING A SALMON.
1t Was Mighty Exciting Even if the
Fish Did Escape.

SiA ESSdPSs
Uncle Ben Brown was one of the
earliest settlers in Oregon. He was an
intelligent man with a keen sense Of
humor, and his tales of pioneer days
always drew an interested audience.
This story is one of the most popular:
There used to be lots of Indians on
the Rogue river when l came here.
And they sometimes did mighty queer
things. There is a place above Gold
Hill called the Dardanelles, where the
river rushes between steep rocks, with
big, quiet pool below
II was camped at the Dardanelles in
SO. and one evening a packer came
along, going south. An Indian was
there with his canoe. He'd been sitting
on Il stone for an hour or more with
out moving, watching the big salmon
that kept shooting out of the pool, up
ending like a stick Of cordwood and
then plunging back into the water No
doubt he was thinking how good n
steak off one of those salmon would
taste. The packer soon made bar
gain with the Indian to take him over.
THE Indian piled most Of the pack
in the front of the canoe and took his
seat in the middle. The white man sat
behind and lowed his horse at the end
of lariat. The packer had an old, fat
barreled, sawed off musket. called Il
'yauger.' that the Indian laid across
the pack in front of him. Halfway
across he stopped padding and squint-
ed down into the water. He saw a
monster salmon right under the canoe.
Grunting 'Skookum salmon" he drop
ped the paddle and, grabbing up the
yauger. rammed 1t into the water up
to the locks, took aim and discharged it
Il guess he didn't know that he
couldn't blow a hole in the Rogue river
with a gun without startling results
The canoe turned over like a fash
Pieces Of the old yauger went twenty
feet into the air. The Indian and the
white man both disappeared. Present
~ the packer came up and began to
swim around, trying to collect his
goods sputtering and making severely
critical remarks about Indians in gen
eral.
The Indian didn't come up for some
time When he did 1t was near the
foot of the pool. His face was covered
with blood. In two plunges he made
shore on the other side of the foot OF
the rapids. rushed up the bank and
stopped a moment to brush the we1
hair hurriedly out Of his eyes. Then
with one dazed look in my direction, he
exclaimed, 'Hoosh, hoosh" and dived
into the brush. He must have though,
that the salmon or the gun or the river
was bewitched, for / never saw hin
again on Rogue river. So far as
know, the salmon was uninjured."-

CLERKS; WHY
THEY STAY SINGLE

II a man starts clerking in n store.
In any town. in any country. and don't
marry the ''stenog'' or cashier the first
month. its a safe bet he'll be a bachelor.
Why? A woman comes into the store
at 6:55 p. m. right after h first nov
storm or cold day. and buys q stove.
h has been figuring IN this stove for
three weeks. but like the Arkansas
traveller. h didn't need the roof when
the wather was good. She wants the
stove set up right away and so the clerk
takes his little delivery sled. his snip4
wire. ten or a dozen Joints Of pipe b
stove board and a few tools and starts
for No. 1912, to DO a few minutes work
before upper. he only upsets sever or
eight times. the pipe, comes to pieces in
a few places and finally he wades in
over a six foot bank Of snow onto the
porch and lands the outfit about 7:1s.
Just about the time he gets it all set
up and wired $3.50 Mrs. comes in and
informs him hat she has decided to have
that stove set in the other corner. III
will only take a few minutes ana Then
I'll have it right, 1e:so-see that lonely
individual sitting there on that stool
in the restaurant with a cold dolghnu'
and a glass Of buttermilk, he's a littl.
hungry and q little tired. but I wonder
IL he really earned that much today"
you know these clerks are 80 slow abou
delivering its a wonder they get up gum
ton enough to catch up with an appe
tite. It's hardly fair to ask this pape
to donate space to tell any more Of gu
troubles and II they feel like giving thi
space its probably because no maj
knows other peoples troubles better Q
gives more sympathy han an editor; h
has the biggest heart in the world.
Just watch the clerks that have 9.
capped the first month and see how man
ever try the comforts Of a home.
