A Hint to the Wool Men. The Evening Telegram. There is a woolmen's gathering at Baker City, and as a matter of course there is plenty of discuss ion regarding the ways and means by which the woolmen's interests may be advanced. Naturally there is bound to be some high tariff tall:, that always occurs; and there is bound to Ut dUcusuion concerning transportation prob lems as they are presented in the matter of freight rates, and also of the action best to be taken which will lead to the widening of the market or the creation of a new market For such purposes do the wool men gather in conven tion, and there is no doubt that good results ensue from such gatherings. But, if a lay opinion may be ad vanced with apology, it seems evident to us that the wool men and men interested in the wool business in this state of Oregon have persistently overlooked the most promising opportunity that exists in the line of new market creation. That opportunity lies in building the woolen mill where the wool is grown, just as they built the cotton mills in the South where the cotton is grown There would be this difference between these two developments if such enterprise in Oregon were to be conducted as it ought to be, namely, the difference between a low-grade cotton product in the South, which has proved an im mense success from the manufact uring standpoint, and a high- grade wroolen product in Oregon, that would be a greater success, as soon as its reputation was once established. The wool interests in this state are victimized by indulgence in economic folly. We raise the wool and send it East and pay the freight. In the East it is manu factured, mixed with cotton and shoddy and sent back to us in the shape of cloth or clothing, and again we pay the freight together with all mercantile, manufactur ers and broker's profits; and we keep right along at this sort of business in apparent contentment just as if there were no other hope nor prospect. So long as we continue this arrangement and neglect the simple, economic opportunities which are provided to our hand, wool producers and wool consumers in Oregon, will be deprived of advantage they might just as well enjoy . There is a big community interest in the development of woolen manufactures in this state and it is true also that that interest ought to develop along extraordinary lines. This phase of the subject has been reviewed in this paper many times before; but emphatic reiteration is not amiss. We can make woolen goods in Oregon better than they are made anywhere in the world We have the wool, and the power and the water and the climatic conditions which expert manufac turers say are not to be excelled anywhere. We also have the market, and if not in full demand for the entire Oregon product, it is developing rapidly to that. Upon the opening of the canal, that sort of development is bound to be stimulated, probably more than most of us imagine. The state of Oregon and the Pacific Coast will people more rapidly than we have ever dreamed they would. Consumption for woolen goods will be created where Ore gon woolgrowers, through the agency of Oregon manufacturers, I can supply the demand without paying freight to Boston plus the charges incident to the conduct of the Boston woolbuyers' bus iness. Again the consumer should be saved the freight across the continent on the finished pro duct, with all the interm Kliate charges and commission attached, and at the same time get real MADDENED THE BEAR. Ingenious Trap That Wat Formerly Used by the Mexicans. The Moilrnns la Cnllfortiln bad en Ingenuous method of trapping benrs bofore the udveut of the Yankees brought modern flrenrms Into the re gion. A piece of meat was nulled to the stout horizontal limb of nn oak tree. From n limb five or sis feet above a rope was (suspended, to the end of wiii' ii a large Stoiit; was made rnst so thnt It hung about six Inches above and n trifle nearer the trunk than the meat on the lower limb. When n boar swelled the meat from afar he would climb up the tree and make his way to the bait. In dolus so he would push the stone pendulum to one s;de. Just as he was about to fasten his teeth In the meat the stone would swing back and bans his head This would arouse the anper of the bear, and he would trlve the stone n sweep of his paw which would send It swinplnf farther out. The conse quence was n harder bang and more anger. The more he struck the stone the harder he would be hit In return. until from ferocious nnger he would lose his caution and nttack the pendu lum with nil his vigor. One powerful sweep, then bang, and bruin would be tumbled out of the tree to the rocks below, where, disabled by his fall, he would be at the mercy of those who set the trap whenever they chose to take htm.

His Job of Varnishing the Door Was Not a Howling Success. Mr. Brewster thought his front door looked as though a cout of varnish would do it no harm and resolved to do it himself to save the expense of a painter. Finding an old "golden sirup" tin In the yard, he went off to the shop for some "best oak varnish." lie placed It in the pantry for the night and was ud early next mornini; and by half past 12 had got the door finished. "1 don't like it now it's done," he said to his wife. "It's bad varnish." replied she. "He's sold you the wrong sort of stuff." He thought so, too. and went back to the shop, taking what was left with him. "This is funny varnish you sold me,' said he. "It's dull, sticky stuff." After examining it the shopman said: "This is not what I sold you. This is sirup!" It then dawned on him that he had got hold of the wrong tin. and he went back home to explain to bis wife, who at once said: "Good gra clous James! And I've made the pud ding with the other tinful!" Then after a moment's pause, "You'll dine todav on roast mutton and varnish pudding!" Pearson's Weekly. The Gallery Gods' Applause. Lnwreuee Barrett once told or a conversation he had with Edwin Booth. The latter had been congratulated up on an ovation given him by a crowded house on the opening night of an en gagement "The sweetest music to my ears." said the great tragedian, "Is the shouting of the boys In the gallery. I know they are not applauding because I have a reputation or because they wish to make a display. They simply give vent to their natural enthusiasm. When they shout I know that 1 am giving a good performance. As for the parquet, it may clap its bands out of politeness. A dramatic critic who had certain notions as to bow a line should be read will applaud If I read it his way; otherwise he will remain quiet I can never analyze the applause of the front rows, but the gallery is sin cere In Its likes or dislikes." Shakespeare's Education, Shakespeare could not have been an educated man, that Is, In the academic sense of the word, for he was a mere youth when he went to London from Stratford and bad bad, up to that time. only such mental training as he could pick up in the schools of his native town. It nowhere appears that he at tended school after leaving Stratford. And yet, as Matthew Arnold says, he lived during his London residence "In a current of Ideas in the highest degree animating and nourishing to the crea tive faculty In a society permeated by fresh thought, intelligent and alive." And he used not only the Ideas which he imbibed as they floated around him. but all the learning he could pick up without neglecting his calling. New Vork American. OUKT OF MOU- rn.

Drawing the Disease Out. The Chinese have a curious custom of trying to cure a sick man. A friend of the patient obtains a straight ranch with a few leaves and twigs at the end. On this he hangs a mirror of polished steel, and under that one of the sir-k man's coats. Then he goes for a short walk, a priest in the mean time performing a ceremony. The coat, being carried in this way, is sup posed to draw the disease from the lufTerer. Notice For Publication. DEPAUTMENT OF THE IXTER lor, U. S. Lnnd Office at The Dalles.
