On nearly every through California
train there are very observaut
tourists. Some of them can usually
be seen on the platform taking a
view of all that is to be seen of this
city aud surroundings. But as the
depot Is considerably at one side,
they do not get tho view that Salem
people desire they should. An in
cident this morning gives em
phasis to tho suggestion made in
these columns yesterday that a
supply of descriptive leatlets or
pamphlets should be at the depot
for distribution. S. H. Cowerd,
stepped off he train this morning
and asked a Journal representative
what town they had reached.
"Salemfthe capital of Oregon."
was the response.
"I thought Portland was the
capital."
"No, sir, that is the metropolis."
"I am cote of a party of six tourists
from Memphis, Tennessee. We
have been all through California and
are going to look at Oregon."
'What do you think of it so far
as you have come?"
"Very well. It is more like
home than tlie dry aud parched
looking California that has so many
advantages. You have a great
country here, with its farms and
pasture, orchards, timber and water
power."
He then asked what wo produce
iu thi valley and vicinity. What
were bur mean temperature, average
and total rainfall in winter, depth
and continuance of snow, and price
of land. But before these aud like
questions could be answered, and
our state house, court house, fruit
evaporator, school houses, churches
and other buildings pointed out, tho
conductor.called "all aboard," and,
with a hasty promise to mail his
party some descriptive matter before
they leave Portland, the train was
rolling out. What an advantage if
there had been some printed circu
lars or pamphlets at hand to have
giveu him. W,e are not in the real
estate business nor on the board of
trade, ibutju word to the wise should
besufnfeht.
The Children I'teastd.
A lover.of children sends the fol
lowing as wormy in vuu" i"tw:,-
and the JouhnaIj coincides and
cheerfully publishes :
The children of.tho OrphfimTTnmo
were bromrht into town on Tuesr
day, to witness the parade of (ho.
big show, after which tho neartfor
each was nmdo glad by the posses
sion of a balloon, calling for Harri
son or Cleveland, according to their
young ideas. They were then
marched to Dr. J. C. Sheltoh's resi
dence, where, through tho kindness
of Misses Bicio Sheltou and Dell
Jackson, they wore treated to
luncheon. After an hour's rest,
and a good brushing with the whisk
broom, Maj. Williams, with his
usual generosity, brought his com
modious carriage,and made two trips,
conveying them to tho circus
grounds. Tho worthy ladles of the
Board had secured for them free ad-
mfssjon to the afternoon )erfonn
anee, When tho show was over,
they were tukea back to tho Home
lyjh1 tired feet but light hearts, feel
ing well satisfied with tho day. By
way of showing their appreciation
of Maj.., Williams' kindness, tfioy
pricked'1 iheir little fingers gather
ing far him a bucket of nice black
berries, wondering all the time
which was tho larger Maj. Williams
heart, or tho big elephant.

A Cool and Refreshing RetreatHow
the Summer Loiterers Em
ploy Themselves.
The summer crowd at this pleasant
resort is thinning out. Forty persons
left the Bay View house one day
last week, aud the Ocean House Is
not filled. Private boarding houses
have been much sought for this
season, as the hotels are often un
comfortably full. The cloth parti
tions and thiu wall of some of the
boarding houses, however, make
the old gentleman who gets sick in
the night from eating too much
crab, and the baby who cries from
hives, unpleasant neighbors to the
delicate woman who comes here to
benefit her health, and seeks in a
private boarding house to escapo tho
noisy hotel. The great need of this
place, to make It a popul.ir i eso t, is
more good boarding places. Another
hotel which would le a little out of
the main street and nearer tho north
beach would, we are sure, if well
conducted, pay well during three or
four months of tho year. We find
it hard to realize that there is hot
weather anywhere, we liavo it
delightfully cool here. Fire is
pleasant every night.
Bonfires on the beach, around
whicli the young people gather aud
sing songv, and old eople tell
stories and talk polities and gossip,
are among the ulcusantost ways of
passing theevenings for the earners.
Sea bathing is, of course, the great
entertainment for young and old.
There is a new and recherche bath
house on the Nye creek beach, with
a stove and basins of running spring
water, fitted up quite tastefully with
rustle, wave-worn clothes-hooks
and ornaments. It Is quite retired
and convenient for any who prefer
a more private bathing place than
the one west of town. President
Ellis, of Pacific university, is camped
at Big Tree creek, with some Forest
Grove friends, and Professor Ed
wards, of the same school, took a
cottage the 1st of June and has
been here even since, Miss Adams,
dean of tho P. TJ. ladies hall, is
with them. Clyde Cooke is making
studies of sand, waves and rocks,
Uuit may. niuxMir tn lamer work in
the future. Miss Morgan, of Port
land, has mado some very pleasant
studies In oil ' r'""si about the
bayv iui amateurs unr sketching
uid painting among the sand hills
and stunted pines and spruces.
Five or six young ladies from
Eugene occupy a cottage on tho
hill back of Newport, and are said
to be a merry crew on land. Pro
fessor Condon, of Eugene, with his
wife and three daughters, have
spent about two mouths in Ids
cottage on Nye creek. His twin
daughters paint from nature, and
one of them is engaged in reproduc
ing one of those, clear little pools
framed with barnacles and sca
ancmones, which every one who
has seen lias admired. Walking
trips to tho lighthouse are very
fashionable hero for those young
people who are daring enough, and
strqug enough to uiHJcrtuke them.
A'company of six went over the
hill and along the beach one day
la-st week, over flvo miles, with
one short stop at Big Tree creek,
aud made u day of it at the cape.
They were shown up the black iron
stairs of the lighthouse tower that is
always so "spick and span" inside,
and the funny young man of the
company being impressed by the
formality and silent solemnity,
called back to the girls in a stage
whisper, as he followed the light
keeper, "Come on, aud proceed to
view the corpse." Several well
known young men of Salem are
here, mall carriers aud clerks, etc.,
but not many Salem girls liave we
seen tills summer.
Many new people" are here from
Albany, Eugene, Salem and
Corvallis. Butter Is scarce. Huckle
berries aro getting ripe aud so are
we, If plumpness ,fid brownncss
are signs oi ripeness.

A Thrifty Firmer.
ifMr. George Allen, who came hero
from Michigan two years ago, is
proving what persistent hard work
will do. On liis farm, a few miles
east of Salem, ho keeps steadily cut
ting timber for firewood; ho follows
up by clearing and slashing. Then
ho gets a good bum on it and sows
wheat in thd 'ashes, dragging It In
with a good, heavy harrow. The
result last year was an average of
twenty-two bushels. ThU year his
crops look well, and will yield a
good quantity. Tho increase in
values and tho Improvement In a)-
pearanco In a few years, on a farm,
taken iu tho rough, with such "el

will be astonishing.
