A minister of New York saw a mari
wrap a ten dollar note in one of three
cakes of soap und then offer the soap
and money for the reasonable price
of five dollars. The clergyman,
thinking he might ns well make the
five dollurs and soap as somebody
else, bought the whole lot. He got
the soap but no money, and the mem
bers of his (lock attempted to secure
him a position in some other church.
Sonp is a. very poor article to specu
late much on.
The New York Star has the fol
lowing: Paper-money newspapers
say the people do not like tho silver
dollar, but tho Star knows better.
Plain people like the dollars, market
women like them, hack-drivers like
them, newsboys dote on them, and
bar-tenders receive them with do
light. The mechanic likes the eigh
teen silver dollars which he gets Sat
urday afternoon. He is not distress- 1
ed by the weight of them. Newspa
per publishers like them. Tho star
would sell its whole edition, includ
ing its cat, for silver dollars.
Gen. Rosecrans has declined tho
invitation of tho Ohio Democrats,
who wanted him to take part in the
present campaign. As soon as the
President returned from his vacation,
Rosecrans called upon him to ask him
if public officers were to be allowed
to take part in political campaigns.
In other words, could he have per
mission to go to Ohio to help his po
litical brethren? It is understood
the President set his foot down and
forbade any such proceedings on the
part of any one holding office under
his administration, because he want
ed to try the neutral policy. Rose
craus accordingly sent his declina
tion to Ohio.
Dorman II Eaton, Chairman of the
Civil Service Commission, had a long
interview by •appointment with the
President Tuesday, about a number
of miscellaneous matters, the precise
nature of which, however, Mr. Eaton
does not feel at liberty to disclose,
lie said the Commission will be readV
to proceed with the argument in the
Hinckley suit in New York next Fri
day, and lie earnestly hopes that
nothing will intervene to prevent a
speedy conclusion. The District At
torney will by direction of the Presi
dent, conduct the defense. The at
titude of the President, Mr. Eaton
said, in reply to an inquiry, was in
every way satisfactory to tho Com
mission.— [Ex.
The New York Republican Con
vention was called to order by Chair
man Warren of the State Central
Committee. The roll having been
called, tho Chairman announced that
the State Central Committee lmd
agreed upon Senator Warner Miller
for temporary chairman. In his ad
dress Miller called attention to the
fact that the Republican party of the
State, for the first time in twenty-five
years, was confronted by both Fed
eral and State Government in the
hands of the Democracy. lie advo
cated a rigid adherence to the pro
tection of American industries, and
American labor. He said: "When
we turned over to the opposition the
Civil Service of the Government, no
better Civil Service existed under the
sun." Referring to the pcditical com
plexion of the Southern States, the
speaker maintained that throughout
the length and breadth of that land
there was not to be found a single
Government which holds the reins of
the Government by thé will of the
people.
The "Cl.unipion Huns"
Among the spectators at the San
Francisco pàrk recently, was a China
man who, not Content with the excite
ment of dominoes, dice and tan, de
sired to follow the white man's meth
ods and enjoy the glorious uncertainty
of horse racing. Some one had post
ed him as to the champion horse,
which was sure to w in, and he accord
ingly blew in every $5 piece he had
on that horse. He returned home,
and tho paper the next morning had
his story of the race as follows:
"D—ii Saclaipento! Nogood place
for hoss-lace. White man he tell me
that hoss ho champion boss. Me sab
bee. Me bet ten, twenty, fifty dollar.
Champion boss ho fun quick two, tlce
time; evly time he go back. Then all
lun. Champion boss he lun plitty
good. I think catchee much tnonee.
Birne-by all bosses come in—cham
pion hoss him last. D—n champion
hoss!"
An enormous Socialist meeting was
held at Lime House, London. The
crowd prevented many attempts of
the police to arrest the speakers, but
the officers finally succeeded in ar
resting Mahon, the Secretary of the
Socialist League, the steward of a
German club and six spectators. The
police encountered the greatest diffi
culty in preventing the mob from res
cuing their prisoners. As they were
being marched to the police station,
the crowd followed the police, hoot
ing at them, and at times making
rushes to liberate tlieir companions;
but the police bold their ground well
and beat them hack with tlieir clubs.
The prisoners were brought before a
magistrate and fined and imprisoned
lor short periods for obstructing the
police in the discharge of their duty.
During the hearing the police arrest
ed William Morris for ussaulting
them. Morris declared that the po
lice had hustled and assaulted sever
al lady witnesses. Hennett Burleigh,
journalist, corroborated tho evidence
of Morris, and said the police kicked
his leg. Further hearing of tne case
was adjourned
Never in the history of the country
east of the mountains has such a crop
been harvested as during the present
year. A larger acreage was sown and
the yield has been far above an aver
age. The O. R. & N. Co.'s trains are
bringing to Portland daily about 2000
tons from Eastern Oregon and Wash
ington, und the crop has barely com
menced being shipped. No question
will over again ba entertained of the
capabilities of this section for cereals,
and the Willamette valley will no
longer bo considered as the granary
of the northwest.-^—[Times mountain

Cholera failed to strike a single one
of the 4,000 women employed in the
national tobacco factory at Valencia,
Spain, though the disease raged vio
lently in that city, and tho Mqdical
World recalls that tobaoco workers
were also noticed to enjoy exemption
from attuck during an epidemic at
Amsterdam.
The Swiss army now numbers 47?
