Attention was recently drawn by Chief Justice J. M. Hill of Arkansas, to the multiplication of educational facilities In the southern state.. Re ferring to his own state he pointed out that there are today 23 schools for very saloon, while It was not so very long ago that there were 23 saloon's for on school. This change has not rom through any general law or ud4 den and Impulsive movement, but 11 in result or eaucatea public senti ment ; : The mathematical progression In the Increase of school and decrease of saloon afford gratifying evidence of the general trend of education In the south. Stimulating educational In fluences have been at work, and, as they continue to operate,!, those en gaged In the movement look forward to an active rivalry In the southern states, esch striving to outdo the oth ers In the extent to which It I Im proving Its school system.

In a disastrous fir. that occurred shortly after oVlorlf thla nwrtr, the R. E. Porter house, below the ball .grounds, was completely destroyed and the members of the family escaped with their lives only by hastily climb ing through the windows, say the Pendleton East Oregonian. . How the fire started Is a complete mystery. .According to Mrs. - Porter the family retired about I o'clock last evening apd they were awakened be tween and 4 o'clock by finding the house enveloped in flames. At the time Mr. Porter was In Hermlaton and"J Mrs. Porter and her children were alone at home, three of the children were sleeping In the upper portion of the house and escaped by going out upon the porch and Jumping off. By the time the' family was. aroused th flames had spread so that the door' could not be reached and Mrs. Porter escaped through a wlrfdow. So hurriedly did the family leave the burning place that they had not even an opportunity to dress and were forc ed to seek shelter of their neighbors In their night robes.' A small rocking chair was the only thing about the house that was saved. ' ! A Jumbo Xcit'Npanrr.
