The unfortu nate girl waa walking on a trestle on her way borne from down town and came meeting the train, neither the engineer nor n reman of which saw her, and ware unaware of what bad hap pened until they reached the lower depot Tha young lady waa still alive when found by passers by, but died in a very few minutes, Soma contend that aba must have been murdered and placed on tho track for deception, aince tha body was not seriously bruised a thing almost Impossible if she bad been struck by the engine. Plbxty or Exercise. An exchange aaya that during the dance season a girl gets lota of eternise. If you make a atudy of dancing, you will figure that an average waits takes a girl over three qaartera of a mile of the floor; a aquare dsnce ia good for a half a mile, and a gallop equala a run of a mile. Twenty dunces is tho average, you know ; that is, if tha girl ia uoi a wall flower. Of the twenty, twelve are walsea, and you have nine miles; three are gallops, and that makea twelve miles; five other dancoa at a half mile, gives you a total of fifteen wiles. That ia not counting strolls, promena-Jea and other tripe. Bo you see that if a girl aitenda a dance a week, she gets plenty of exercise. Could Not Aobee. The Jnry In the case of A. H. BUkealey vs. Muckle Bros., tried in the circuit court last week, oould not agree. The oase went to trial on Wednesday, and on Thursday evening was given to the jury. They were out all night and came into court Friday morning and reported that they stood 8 to 4 and therefore could not agree. Judge Mc Ginn proceeded to explain to thorn why they should agree upon a verdict and after instructing them at length upon this point, again placed them in charge of the bailiff for further delib eration. They returned to the jury room where they remained until 10 o'clock Friday night, and again re ported a dissgreemeat, whereupon they were discharged by the court. The case will probably come up again for trial at the May Una. runnin With Larceny. In Jus tice Swagcr's court Wednesday Charles llo.bhart aria on trial on a charge of larceny. The complaint alleged that "on January OlD, iouo, unanea ours WW. willfully and unlaw fully took, stole and carried away one double barrel lea enoigun or me tbius of fiO, the personal property of B. C. Enyert" It appears tbat Burkhart has the hunting privilegee on Deer Island leased, and that on the day above mentioned ha met a son of B. O. Enyert hunting on the leased pram isea and took from him a gun, which ha turned over to the boy's brother at W. D. Connell'a place, with lustruo tions that it be returned to tha owner. B. 0. JEnyert oama to St. Helena and swore out a complaint for tha arrest of Burkhart on the above charge. The case came on in the justice oourt and after hearing- the evidence the oourt discharged the defendant. Furnished Excitement. A. good alsed crowd waa attracted to the oourt house Wednesday to bear tha divorce oaae of J. W. Cline vs. Maria Oline, but they were diaappointed. When the time came to go to trial the plain tiff could not raise the amount of the trial fee, whioh the law requires to be paid in advanoe, and consequently the oaae waa not properly in oourt and it waa so decided. At this junoture tha defendant posted the trial fee and asked for a dlvoroe, whioh was granted. Bnt while thia was going on fiart of the anxtoua crowd, antioipat og that the testimony of aoma of the witnesses would be "rich and racy," ahowed a willingness to take up a col lection to pay tha necessary fee that tha show might go on, bnt aa such pro ceeding is unusual their better judg ment prevailed (or their pockets failed) and the orowd dispersed. The interested parties to this Interesting divoroe case ara the parents of thirteen children, and they seem to have about all been on hand to take part in trial, hear the taU Tol wo? presented by "Pa" and M. and afterward to give their own view of a domeatlc felioity that was entirely domeatio. After the esse was dis missed the female contingent of the aggregation engaged in a hand to band oombat, aooompaniod by im mense volumes of choice yerbal effusions until stopped by the smaller battery held in reserve. The engage ment lasted for aoma time, but after the first volley tha confliot waa re duoed to words, renewed with vigor at intervals when ona of tha opposing aides would attempt a flank movement. Finally the oombattante began to dis appear and by next morning every thing was serene where tha night be fore oil seemed Decenary to smooth the troubled waters. TALK OF AN EXTRA SESSION Many Important Matters for Consideration. Opinions Regarding; (ha Hatter Ex pressed Frankly by Those Interested. Balbh , Jsn. 13. Talk of an extra session of the legislature has beea rile here today. The brssse was started by Senator Ban oroft, of Portland. Daring bis short stay the senator has been advocating the desir ability of an extra ssssiou. Hs called upon Governor Lord and expressed his vlsws. bat msde no forms request. The governor Intimated tonight that be Is not seriously considering calling an extra session. Hs said, however, that the railroad commis sion might be abolished and some school snd other appropriations might be repealed for relief of the taxpayers, bat no definite object bad bean presented, nor would be call an extra session without the assurance that something would be aoeomuHsbed. Senator Patterson Is reticent, but admits that the state, oounty and municipal gov ernmental expenses must eoma to a hard- times basis. Senator Oesner does not con sider an extra session advisable. Ex Speaker Moore thinks nothing oould bs ac complished by an extra session. In con nectlon with the extra session talk, distrust generally in the last legislature la expressed, Salbm, Or., Jan. H. The extra session talk has elicited many anoompllroantary remarks about the legislature as now eon stitated. One man said today i "I would not have any confidence In the present leg islature enttloB down expenses In any way If every member would sign a written guarantee." Another business man, well known among politicians, said: "Certainly, we need such relief as could be given by an extra session of the legislators, bnt what can we expect Look at tha equalisation board that baa lust adjourned. The mem' bers of tbat board are about as good as the members of the legislature, and they bsve not only just bled the state for 1 10 per day each, for thirty days, and a. Ueage, but they bad the brssen effrontery to employ clerks and vote tbem HO per day each, and a page 3 per day. The Clerks employed cannot earn over 13 per day at anything else, and tha employment of a page was simply a donation. And even the reporters blushed to give the actual expenses of that board. Secretary Ooolldge really received 440. . I believe Coollrige is in sssslon yet." Representative Craig, from the Waldo bills, was In Salem today. Mr. Craig does not feel it Incumbent upon htm to defend the last session of tha legislator, and be lieves much good might be done by an extra session. Before a call la made, he suggests tbat correspondence be opened up with the members, and a call made only upon pledges from each member. Asskssment Laws Nbbdbd. Mem bers of the state board of equalisation have given their viewa as to the need of Oregon in the matter of assessment laws. Hera ia a summary : "Tax mortgages for the value that can be realised oat of them, and make the tax a lien upon the seourity. Tax notea at their market value, and place an interest forfeiture penally upon all not bearing the assessor's stamp. Allow deduction for indebtedness on all debts when the tax ia paid by the creditor. Beduce the number of mem bers of the board to five. Require them to devote all their time to the work. Let the board designate the classification of property both real and personal. Have the board assess all inter county property and national banks." Carload or Poultry. A patent poultry car haa been forwarded to this city br Charles Jacobson A Co., com mission merchants of San Francisoo, aaya the Eugene Guard. This car haa 128 compartments, and will carry from 4000 to 0000 birds. The com partments are eight stories high, and range along each side of tha car, with an alley way through the center. It ia built of iron, and in each depart ment are troughs tor food and water for tha fowls while In transit. Tbia car, whioh ia probably the first of the kind ever brought to Eugene, will be loaded with chickena, turkeys, ducks and geese and shipped to San Fran cisco aoma time during thia month. Mr. Jaoobson will be in Eugene about the 15th int., but bia agents, J. L. Cbaae A Co., eommisaion men, will do most of tha purchasing. What the car lacks in being filled here will be obtained at Medford and other South ern Oregon towns. What Hib Fbcnbs Brought. Oorvallis Times i D. C. Rose has re ceived a letter from his brother, now in the East, and along with it, returna from a shipment of dried prunea re cently shipped to St. Louis to be mar keted. The fruit, after being twenty six days enroute, was sold promptly on arrival at St. Louis at 7 cents per pound, and tha letter deolares that if received before the bolidaya, cents per pound would hays been realised. As the shipment was oniy a paruai car load the freight rate waa 12.20 per 100 pounds instead of 81.20 aa would have beon the oase if there had been a full carload. As It is, Mr. Rose re ceives net for his prunes 4 cents per nminn. anil shinned in carload lot a week earlier his net profit would have been 6 cents, a result tbat will prompt him tn thin him fruit East hereafter.

Great Destruction of Property Re portedMany Village Bnrned br the Insurgents. Havasa, Jan, M At noon today con tinued artillery firing was heard south of Elncon, not far from Bcjucal. The town waa attacked by lasurgonts yesterday, but tbey were forced to retreat after a battle lasting, It ia cisiraed, five hours, but, it is admitted that tbe insurgents plundered stores In the outlying street of Bejucal, burned many houses and destroyed the railroad depot. Previously tbey bad burned tb town of Salad, and partly destroyed Qulvlcan. Tbey burned freight trains and destroyed everything as tbey pushed north ward toward Havana. This force of Insurgents Is the one sup posed to be commanded by Gomes, al though it has been lnalstsd upon that be is still In the province of Finar del Rio, and was in confliot with the Spanish troops commanded by General Linares. It is be lieved an important engagement took place. , Confirmation has been reoeived from tbe eastern provinces that the leaders Babi, Jos Macao, Rlvero and others, at the head of strong forces of insurgents from the provinoe of Puerto Principe, believed to be mnch better armed than any previous forces, and to have been reinforced by fili bustering expeditions containing numbers of Americans, sre moving eastwardly, ap parently with the intention of reiuforciog the insurgents now operating in the neigh borhood of Havana. These insurgent forces are said to have moved Into the Bemedloa district in a northwesterly direc tion from Sanctl Spirltus, and from there on westward. Campos has been forced to meet this move by aending back towards Santa Clara several columns of troops which were on their way through the province of Matan xas to reinforce bis forces in this vicinity. The insurgents, It is believed, will thus be able to continue for some time longer their almost unchecked operations, and If tbe 8panish generals are not able to prevent a junction of all tbe Insurgent forces now in this vicinity, the situation will become more critical. Several Insurgent bands, numbering from 100 to 300 men, are reported to have gatb ered In the provinces of Colon and Matan xas, and all of these will help to swell Ma ceo's forces. The insurrection is increas ing in importance every day. Practically, the whole interior of the Isl and, from east to west, with the exception of the large towns, la in the possession of the insurgents, who bsve burned every thing combustible, and bare levied tribute right and left, under the very noses of the Spanish commanders, cutting down the revenue of the Spanish government from Cuban sources about 80 per cent. The insurgents are not acting hastily in any way. They bare plenty of time before them, and intend to make the most of it. They have a central government established at Hermosa, In the province of Puerto Principe; their forces are organised in ex cellent military style; they have regular army workshops; hospitals, in addition to the field hospitals; depots of provisions, ammunition, etc. Their cavalry is vastly superior, both in number and quality, to that of the Spaniards, and tbe military ex perts assert that the importation of 3000 or MOO Spanish cavalry from 8paln will, In no way affect the situation, as the Spanish horses cannot stand the climate. The weak point of the Unban army Is its artillery. They have only a few guns of the old-fashioned type, and a few modern rapid-firing guns. This afternoon it waa stated that General Mac so had plundered the village of Ban Diego de Nunes, quite an important place, a little to the eastward and southward of Bahia Honda, the port recently captured by the insurgents, on the northern coast of Cuba, and In the province of Ptnar del Rio. A report has just beea received tbat the railroad station and the railroad bridge at Govea have been burned by tbe Insurgents, the bridge being partially destroyed. Doubta of Campos' Sanity. Chicago. Jan. 14. A special from Boston says: Startling information ha been received from Havana by a prominent Cuban tobac co-dealer here, whose interest tn the Island forbid using his nam. 'There is a general opinion," says the letter, "both among insurgents and Span iards, that General Compos has become de mented. His action, not only in the direc tion of the campatgn,Jbut bis private and ordinary actions are auoh as to give good grounds for such belief. Gomes has no idea of attacking Havana but bis plan is to cut off the city's supplies. There Is no doubt but tbat fully half of th oitisens and populace are Cuban sympa thizers. "The Americans are thoroughly detested by the Spaniards. The situation is serious. A great deal of American property has been destroyed, and terrible atrocities will be committed upon Amerioans. Tbe United States needs a warship or two in Havana harbor." " Another Filibustering- Party. Nxw Yobe, Jan. 14. A local paper aaya: Intelligence bas been received by a prom inent member ef tho Cuban party in New York of the arrival of an important aux iliary to th insurgent forces. Reports have already been published stating that a filibustering expedition under Garcia, has been landed near Havana. A party consisting of 40 men, under tbe leadership of Alfredo Laborde, has landed at Batabano, on th westcoaat of th isl and, within a short dlstsno of Havana. The party is well equipped. Gomes and Maceo are hovering tn the vicinity with up ward of 4000 troops. Ever since the revo lution broke out last February, th Insur gent leader, Del Gardo, with 400 men, has been under arms at Batabano. This party will be joined by tb new arrivals, and the combined force will join tha main army. Th intelligence is considered of th great est importance by all the Cubans to whom it bas been communicated. Negotiating With Insurgent. Havana, Jan. 15. The air ia full of ru mors regarding negotiations going on be tween the oap tain-general and the Insurgent leaders, bnt the general opinion is that van if tbey are taking place, ther will be no result from them. It Is reported that while Macao wa moving along the north ern coast of Plnar del Bio, b recelred con siderable additions to his supply of arms and ammunition. A sohooner loaded with arms, etc., is said to have awaited tb in surgent at La Mulata, and other such con signments are said to have been received at various parts of th coast. This Is de nied by th Spanish authorities, who say th ooast is thoroughly patrolled by tbe Spanish nsvy. The cans of th heavy artillery firing beard yesterday la the vicinity of Bejncal, south of this city, and about half way be tween Havana and Batanavo, remained a mystery nntil about noon today. It ap pears tbat the insurgents, under Gomes, were twice repulsed in attempting to cap ture th city. It Is said the principal ob ject of Gomez' attack on Bejucal, south of tbls city is to create a diversion under which bis lieutenant, Maceo, may retire from tbe province of Plnar del Rio. When last heard from, the second insurgent army under Generals Jos Vaceo, Babi and others, wss believed to be pushing on through to the Sagua la Grande, District of Santa Clara, toward the border of Matansas. Efforts are being mad to check it pro gress at or about Colon. ' Wben Baby waa alck, we gave her Caatoria. Vrban she wsa a Child, she cried t or Oastoria. When she became Kha, the clung to OMtoria.
