Gleams bnt one shining' sheen of sndtibt. Two wild and stormy streams of hu­ manity, one from Oregon and the other from California, had joined and flowed on tnmultuouely together. They were on their way to the new mines of Idaho. On Comas prairie winter swept sudden­ ly over them, and there, down in the deep canon that cleft the wide and •wintry valley through the middle, the stormy stream of life Btopped, as a liver that is frozen over. A thousand men, trying to escape the blizzard that swept over the valley, tumbled hurriedly into the canon to­ gether, and took shelter there as best they could beside great basalt blocks that had fallen from the high, steep Sffrt of the canon, or under the crags-- y where to encape the bitter cold. And how the Culiforman did despise the Oregonian! He named him the "Webfoot," because hiB feet were large, and he came from the land of clouds and rain. And how the Oregonian did hate the Californian. He named him the "Horse Thief." But as there was more truth than poetry in it. unlike the other appellation, it did not stick. The bitter enmity and bad blood of Ger­ many and France were here displayed ... in epitome and in its worst form. A "wonder, indeed, if there should not be some sort of tragedy played here before the storm was over. The Oregonian wore long hair at that .date, 1801. Leggings and a blaukot, with his head thrust through a hole in the center, made his chief raiment. A tall, peaked hat, with a band about it, something like the brigand of the stage, oovored his long, straight and striugy hair. Sometimes he wore an old slouch He WM£ riirfllv wifljo'it ft blanket. JB& was never without the leggings. The Calfornians wore the traditional led shirt in that day, with hardly an exception. He often carried two pis­ tols in the great leather belt, and al­ ways one, with a bowie-knife. He gen­ erally wore dark trousers, tuekjed insido of his great, long-legged leather boots. If he was "on the shoot" or "come from the shoulder," a little in­ vestigation would in many cases dis­ close a*- extra pistol or two tucked down deep into those boots; and even whisky bottles have been known to nestle there. He rarely wore' a ooat. If he was cold, he put on his other ahirt. The ooat interfered with his fighting, and he despised it; and how be would howl at the long, lean and ailent Oregonian, as he marched about in his moocaftins and leggings, and his blanket tight about him, and his hands <(aite hidden. "Hello! web-foot; wjiore's your lifcnds ? Come, show 'us your h*mlq A»e you heeled? Yoa can't fight that ww r *Try me, and aee." The blanket flew back, two hands •bot forward, and the two garrulous •nd meddlesome Colifornians let tka Vabfoot go, for he was heeled. Vi e had but little wood here, and that Wilt* of the worst quality--willow, and greon aud frozen. The little river gurgled plaintively for the first day or two, as mi'struggled on and ground through its icy banks; but soon its lips were sealed aad the snow came down and covered th*> silent and dead water as with a ihroud. • TI»e day after the little tilt between the parties, as above described, the two Califormans walk^l up and down Ixrfore tlx* qniet and unpretentious camp, only a few steps from their own, for we were all huddled in together tliere, and talked •cry loud and boliaved in a very insult­ ing manner. The canon was all on tip toe. The men began to forget their misory ra the all-absorbing topic of the coming fight. Cautious old men held aloof and tried to keep peaoe. They kept moat of the men out on the windy , plain, freezing there with the lialf- atarved mnles, horses and ponies, that pawed pitilessly and helplessly in the snow, which was now almost'to their breasts. This, it was hoped, would give the men something better to do 4tud keep thorn from battle. But the dreadful situation, the oold, tile hunger, the possibility of all per­ ishing there together, seemed only to •naddon the men. That night, a duel was arranged to take pla^e at daylight •n the plain above. The Californian and the Oregonian were to fight with rifles at ten paces. Both were center .deadly shots. Both had their friends and backers. The whole canon seemed abo it to be drawn into the fight. Some -of the men were now very hungry. All Were cold, cross, desperate. A gen- oral battle was imminent. Let «s look at these silent, lean and .despised Oregoniana in their blankets. Oomely tliey were not, nor graceful. They were not well read, nor had the of the world been upon them as on the Calfornians. But, l>e it remem­ bered, that away back, before Califor­ nia wa« at all known, these Oregonians bad met under ffie pines, and most em- phat;callv, as weB as ungrammatically^ proclaimed that th«y were a part of the United States, and not of Bagland. They had decreed war* against aggres- jfcm thbes, bad rawed*** annj, Main­ tained it in the field, coined their own money, and provided all on their own account. Their coin was pure gold, not a particle of alloy. The beaver on the one side of their crude coin showed the qniet industry of Oregon's pastoral peo­ ple. The sheaf of wheat on the other side showed that plenty rewarded the husbandman. Against this record the Californian had little to exhibit. He had washed down hills and led rivers over the auouuvuiuK. He had contributed much to the metallic currency of the world, bnt he had done little eke. And I take the responsibility of saying that, as oompared with the despised Oregonian, notwithstanding his vigilantes and great show of valor and chivalry, he was a braggart and a bully. But these old and deadly quarrels did not have the ears of the world at the time, and, be­ ing now happily forgotten, they can concern no one. I have only thrown in this paragraph or two to show how dangerous and deadly was this quarrel we now had on hand. The horses, mules and ponies were freezing in the snow where they stood. Two of the Els did not come in at midnight. were found nestling against a mule on the hill, frozen stiff. But still the fight mnst RO on. The moon hung nigh and calm and cold right overhead. The stars stood out and sparkled in the frost-like fire. The keen, cold wind swept the plain above and threatened to fill the canon with drifting snow. Wolves that had eaten only the dead horses up to this time now began to attack the weak and dying. One of the thousands that hove- ered about had even that night laid hold of a man. There were enough wolves gathered about us, howling, fighting, devouring our dead horses, and even each other, to attack and eat us where we stood. But still the fight must go on. The deadly hatred must find some ex­ pression. Fortunate if it should end with this dtiel just before us. Fleecy clouds began to drive over the moon at midnight, and drift away toward Idaho. The stars went out as though the fierce wind had blo\ra out the my­ riad lights of heaven. Then the snow began to fall thick and fast, as the men sat about their feeble fires and talked of the coming duel. These groups grew as white as linddlcd flocks of sheep. Now and then a man would get up and shake himself, and the snow would slide off in little avalanches thicker than your palm. The fires began to perish under this incessant, unceasing dropping of snow. The wind ceased, and the snow then simply possessed the world. The fires all did go out. It was a weird, deathlike darkness. The men could not see each other's faces. When they spoke it was as though Bome one called from deep down in a well. They groped about, feeling for each other, as they tried to creep under their blankets in the snow. Now and then a blanketed Oregonian would find his outstretched hand twisted in the snowy beard of a red-shirted Californian. But there was no swearing at each other now. Snow above and snow below! Tlie wolves howling from the hill. Snow that buried you, that lay over your shoulder like a blanket, that loaded you down, that fastened upon you as if it had life and sense, and like a ghost of your injured dead would never go away. With morning there came a sense of change. But it wa9 not light. Th$re was only a dim, ghostly something in the air--the ghost of a dead day. And snow, snow, snow--nothing but snow and snow. The men came down from the hill and left the wolves to have it thsif TTSV. TJJjaj nftma /Inirn ing to each other, Oregonian and Cali­ fornian together, as best they could. They could not see each other's faces. Their very heads and shoulders were bowed by loads of snow. Many of the men in the canon did not attempt to rise all day. They were oovered by the snow many feet deep. In this strange new land these gold-hunters had come upon strange things, and had como to dread that most dreadful tilings might overtake them. They whispered among themselves that the canon would be swept full of snow if the wind should rise again and then surely all would perish. Under a ledge of rooks that leaned over the canon many men grouped together as the day wore by-- hungry, starving, desperate and dying. But the force of the falling snow was spent. As night came on we could see each other's faoes; we oould see the world onoe more. But what was it ? A world of snow. Strangely enough, a little white-tailed rabbit came timidly among the men out of the snow aua hopped helplessly over human legs. They looked at each other in turn at this, and then out on the world of -snow. The two duelists by chance looked in each other's faces.' There was a long pause, an awkward one. Neither spoke. They looked at each other steadily. The men grouped about them held their breath, and all were silent, as if the snow were indeed their shroud, as one Californian with a prac­ tical turn of mind and temporary reli­ gious tendencies had suggested. While the two men stood looking steadily and still at each other, there was a movement under the blanket of the Oregonian. He evidently was alxmt to do something, and that soon. With eyes firmly fixed on the eyes of his enemy, he threw back his blanket, threw out and extended his hand. The Californian grasped it, and shook it, and shook again and again, ashamed and beaten--ashamed that he had not had the courage to do what his enemy had done before him. The shout of wild delight that went up from the groTip showed that there was life in the savage oanon still. It seemed to settle the storm. It certainly awakened many sleepers, and they crept out of the snow all about, none the worse for their long night's rest. The wolves did not stay to dispnte for possession of the horses on the hill as the proprietors went up among them. And soon the Chinook--the strange, warm Chinook winds that make such storms possible as well as endurable-- swept over the country, and the hills were soon almost as bare as they had been but a week before. MM. BKZUMBEK'S CALL.--Mrs. Be- zumbee, a tall, elderly lady, who al­ ways dresses in deep black and is very much given to making calls, will from now on make no more friendly visits to the juansu n of Col. Bailey Dayton. She was sitting on the gallery sur­ rounded by the family when a large turkey buzzard alighted on a tree near thehouse. "What a large buzzardP remarked Mrs. Bezninbee. "Is that a buzzard?" asked little Emily, very much amazed. "Yes, my child, that's a boz- aard." "But it dou't look like yon." "Of course it don't look tike me. Who says a buzzard looks like me?" asked Mrs. Beenmbee, indignantly. "Why, ma does. Every 4f^' when sue sees yoa coming, she says: 'There comes that old bunurd again.'" v Ofcyei aa Imptim. Fifteen yens ago the daughter of a rich and prosperous man, living in fine style on Fifth avenue, Hew York, went out in a carriage, ostensibly on a shop­ ping expedition. At Stewart's store she left the carriage, and her eoaahman waited for over two hours, finally, becoming anxious, he made inquiries. The young lady had disappeared, and though a great deal of money was spent and much effort made to discover her. there was no trace. Ten years passed, and the detective who had worked on the case, very faithfully and anxiously, rose by degrees to the rank of Police Captain, (tee cold night, jnst after Christmas, four or five of his officers entered the station with eight or ten drunken women in th^ir custody. One or two were crying over their arrest and the prospect of a prison; others were fierce in their oaths at the interference of the police with their orgie, w hile others again were gulky. Standing a little apart from the group of prisoners the Captain noticed a tall woman of about 30, and saw that she had once been beautiful, though now her face was disfigured by a bruise on the cheek and a black welt under tlite eye. There was, however, an air of retirement about the woman that attractad the Police Cap­ tain, and he eyed her curiously while the Sergeant recorded the names of the prisoners. Suddenly the woman beck­ oned to him. ; "Captain, do you know me?" was her question. "No." "Didn't you race try to find Miss Grace ?* "Yes." "Well, Tm her. , J nn away jnst out of pure deviltry, and Pve had my full share of it." "Good heavens! Why did you do it?" "Oh, I don't know. The notion came into my head, and I obeyed the im­ pulse." "And where havr yon been all this time?" * "Right here in the ward, under your very nose. You never suspected me, though I saw you often enough." "And have you not repented of the step?" "Repented!" and the word thrilled in the Captaiu's ear like the wail of a lost soul. "Repented! Oh, God, yes! lint it was too late." , - " • "It's never too late." * "Yes, it is. But it's not too late to die." And before the Captain could prevent it, she had drawn a small pistol and shot herself. The poor creature lived for two days, and when she died it was in the arms of her father. The mother had died a few years before of grief. This is a true story and shows how much stranger real life is than fiction.--Baltimore American. Grandpa. The grandpa is an individual, aged somewhere between 50 and 100 years, of a promiscuous temperament, aud is a common occurrence in all well-regu­ lated families. Next to a healthy mother-in-law, they have more active business on hand than any other party in the household. They are the stand­ ard authority on all leading topics, and what they don't know about things that took place sixty-five years ago, or will take place for the next sixty-five years to come, is a damage for any man to know. Grandpas are not entirely useless; they are handy to hold the babies and feed the pigs, and are very smart at mending a broken broom-lian- dle. and sifting coal sshpfL &n<l u>n good at putting up olothes-lines on washing days. I have seen grandpas that could churn good, but I consider it a mighty mean trick to set an old fellow of 80 years to churning butter. I am a grandpa myself, but I won't chum but­ ter for no concern, not if I understand myself. I am solid on this conclusion as a graven image. I am willing to rock baby all the time while the women folks are boiling soap, I am willing to cut rags to work up into a rag carpet, they can keep me hunting hens' eggs wet days, or picking green onrrants, or I will even dip candles, or core apples for sauce, or turn a grind-stone, but, by thunder, I won't churn. I have exam­ ined myself on this subject, and I will bet a jack-knife, so long as he remains in his right mind, Josh Billings won't churn. As a general thing grandpas ore a set of conceited old fools who don't seem to realize that what they know themselves is a result of exper­ ience, and that younger people have got to get their knowledge in the same way. Grandpas are poor help at bring­ ing up children; they have got precept and catechism enough, but the young people all seem to understand that grandpa minds them a heap more .than they miad grand i>a.--Josh Billings, Htib for the Mind. Dr. Clouston, of the Royal Edinburgh Asylum for the Insane, says: "The greater my experience l>ecoines, I tend more to substitute milk for stimulants. I dont undervalue the latter iu suitable cases; but in the very acute cases, lioth of depression and maniacal exaltation, where the disordered working of the brain tends rapidly to exhaust the strength, I rely more and more on milk and eggs made into liquid custards. One such case this year got eight pints of milk and sixteen eggs every dov for three months, and under this treatment recovered. I question whether he would have done so under any other. He was almost dead on admission, ao- tually delirious, absolutely sleepless, and verv nearly pulseless. It was a hand-to-hand fight between the acute disease in his brain and his general vi­ tality. If his stomach could not have digested and his body assimilated enough suitable nourishment, or if he could not have been taken out freely in the open air, he must have died. But to­ day he is fulfilling the duties of his po­ sition as well as he ever did in his life. All acute mental diseases, like most nervous diseases, tond to thinness of body, and therefore all foods, an I all medicines, and all treatments that fat­ ten are good. To my assistants, and nurses, and patients I preach the gospel of fatness as the great antidote to the exhaustiug teudencies of the disease we have to treat, and it would be well if all people of nervous constitution would obey this gospel," MAJOR GALE FAXON bought a horse ' from the pastor of an Austin church, and shortly afterward the following con­ versation was heard: "You have swind­ led me with that horse you sold me last week." "How so?" asked the clergy­ man, very much surprised. "Well, I only had him for three days when he died." "That's very strange.

They will also recall the fact that, attacked with consumption and reduced to a skele­ ton, he was obJijred to remove to tbe Bookies In the hope of saving his life. None thought he would succeed. Lost fall, however, the editor of this paper met him at the hetwl of the Republican river, big-per and more ro­ bust than ever. "Why, I thought you had died of consumption lonjr. long ago. Elder?" "Me? I never had consumption, man! though people thought that was what ailed me. and I thought so myself. But the doo- u>rs had sent me on a wild goose chase after a dozen other diseases, just as fatal, and this was the wildest one of all." The good Elder then recounted to us, in a charming vein, his many adventures in the rough and ready life he had led, "but," ho eaid, ' remarkable as vou may think my war­ like life has been, 1 have a much more in­ teresting story to tell you" "Vou know what a r<uigh, noisy fellow I n«ed to be; and I oould st and any hardship.

While on the circuit preaching, I consulted a doctor, who faid I had dyspepsia After that, distressing palpitation of the heart followed, and the physician said this was caused by my Indigestion and diseased liver which would probably terminate fatally. Home- times I had a ravenous appetite, at others none at alL I was feverish aud then chilly. My food seemed to do me no good. A specialist told me I had a tape worm!

He said that my frequent horseback ruling had jolted and jarred me until the old Indian wound, which had injured mv kidneys, had become inflamed. He treated me with medicines and electricity also, but gave me no permanent benefit My painful symptoms all returned. I began to cough, got very thin aud my legs were disagreeably numb. I began to despair. At each attempt'to cure, mv ailments became worse, with new symp­ toms. 1 next consulted a celebrated physician from the East, who, after thumping and examining me, stated that I was m an ad­ vanced stage of consumption, and threat­ en^ with diabetes and paralysis! He thought I might possibly prolong my life for a year or two by seeking a higher and drier climate. This was my condition when the |MH>pie in your part of the country last saw ine.

V.) Convinced that further delay would be fatal, and everything else failing, the next morning I dispatched one of my boys to the nearest railroad station, many miles distant, to obtain a bottle of Safe Cure. The druggiNt said the demand for the Cure was «o great he could not keep it in stock, and he had to send to Kansas City for more.

Henry'of Navarre's white plume has naxiKed him to be l emembered more even than liLs valor. John Randolphs squeaking voice first attracted attention to him. Martin Van Buren's gold «»nff box was the instrument of working him hi to influence. Gen. Jackson's habit of violent swearing gave him all the reputation lie had. Gen. Harrison re­ ceived the Presidency by living in a log cabin. Thomas H. Benton made his reputation by swearing at paper money, James Buchanan's good looks kept him in public life half a century, and finally made him President. Abraham Lin­ coln's rail-splitting experience did much to originally raise him to the Presiden­ cy. Allen G. Thurman made a national reputation by lu's use of a red bandana handkerchief.
