An exchange says that , tho wife
of a MethodM minister in an Iowa
town has been" married throe time.
Her maiden name war Partridge,
her first husband's name wa Hob
bins, the second was Sparrow, and
the present one is Quayle. There
are two Robbing, one Sparrow and
two little Quayles and the family
lives on Jay street. One might
almost b forgiven for auggosting
that the lady is a '"bird."'-
A paper in a Missouri town tells
of a girl who played the piano at a
social gathering recently, and gave
some selections from lieothoven,
When she finished there was a very
strange silence, and she turned to
find her audience in a faint. It
was the first music they had heard
that was not rag-time in seventeen
months.

The contemplated extension of
the Corvallis & Eastern railroad
from its eastern terminus at Detroit
in Linn county, to Klamath coun
ty, in Southern Oregon, would de
velop the great yellow and sugar
pine belt of Oregon. The projected
line follows the grade made many
years ago for the old Oregon Pacific
most of the old grade remaining
and some 'of it being intact. In
fact, the track is complete for sev

Notice has just been issued by
the United States land office that a
change has been made in the home
stead laws. Hitherto a person who
had commuted, that is, lived a por
tion of the required time on the
homestead and bought the home
stead clear, had exhausted his title
and could not homestead another
claim. This order of things has
been reversed, and a commuter can
take another, claim, according to
information received at the various

Never forget that advertising
pays, that is, right advertising, and
there is as much in the way you
handle this portion of your business
as there is in the way you stock up
or buy. A glance over the pages
of any large daily will prove this.
Get your advertisements up in an
attractive way. "Catch the eye,"
should be your idea at all times.
When the eye is pleased you have
the "people coming."

Game Warden L. P. W. Quimby,
reports that there are very few in
fractions of the game laws at pres
ent, as people are beginning td'
have respect1 for the game laws.
He is appointing new deputies daily
One measure that has proved very
eatisfactory is the appointing of
deputies from Portland and send
ing them out to districts where the
game laws have been violated.
The offenders will not recognize the
strangers as Deputy Game Wardens
, and will be liable to commit some
act which . will betray them. If
any one is appointed from their
own district as a deputy, offenders
will keep close watch all the time
and elude detection. Mr. Quimby
might send a deputy or two to this
county. Bright and early every
morning can be heard the popping
of shot guns and the West Side has
been told of many infractions of
the law, but no names wer.e given.
' . Crop Failure
i Prof. A. XS. Cordley, of tho agri
cultural college at Corvallis, has
analysed samples of grain and In a
letter to a farmer peaks of poU
and tho partial crop failure as fol
lows: "Tho Insect that Is referred to as
feeding Inlhe joints of wheat straw
Is commonly known ai the Joint
worm, and belongs to( the chaloid
genus Ieosoina. It is an insect cap
able of doing considerable injury,
in fuel there was one period during
the first half of tho century when
the farmer in certain parts of the
east were compelled to abandon the
growth of cereal for a short time,
on account of It. So far as I have
observed in this vicinity, however,
only a small portion of tho stems
are infested, and I believe that this
insect Is only in a very slight de-
greo responsible for the general fail-
uro of tho wheat crop. '
"In certain sections in tho lower
part of tho valley tho what has
been badly injured by the Hessian
fly, and of course throughout tho
valley it has been slightly injured
by the aphis, but undoubtedly most
of tho injury is duo to our system
of farming, and to unfavorable cli-
matio conditions, by the growth of
wheat after wheat, without the in
tervention of clover or other similar
cros, and particularly by our sy
tern of summer fallowing, a very
large projuirtion of humus has dis
appeared from the soil, which, in
consequence, has a tendency to be
come cloddy. ,
''The frequent rains of last sum
mer, alternating with drying
weather, urobablv increased this
tendency, and as there was practi
cally no frost last winter to , break
up these clods, the soil has re
mained in a condition very un
favorable for the retension of the
capillary moisture which is so es
suntinl to plant growth."
Mr. Cordley also requests that
farmers send him samples from dif
ferent parts of the state where this
joint worm is found, so that he may
be able to study distribution and
amount of injury done.
Want a Subldjr.
Fred V Carter, the manager of
the Pioneer Woolen Mills at Dallas,
has made a proposition to the
chamlcr of commerce of Astoria, to
put into operation a woolen mill in
that city if a subsidy of 122,000
would be given to put up the neces
sary buildings on a site to .bo do
nated by the chamber of commerce
It is understood if tho proposition
is accepted tho mill at Dallas wil
be moved to Astoria. 1 he reason
for moving tho plant is said to be
the scarcity of help and tho inade
quale water supply.

Tho Geographical Center.
Emporia, Kansas, used to be the
geographical center of the United
States. It is a town of 18,000 or
20,000 population, the homo of the
late Senator numb. . On the out
skirts of the city a noble monu
meut was erected to mark the
ctnter of the republic, the, point
reached by' averaging the distance
to tho tip of Florida and ; the east
ern boundaries of Maine with the
rest of the Atlantic and Pacific
coast lines. But tho inscription on
the Emporia monument will have
to he amended. The annexation
of Hawaii and other recent geogra
phical events have made it wrong.
Cooking Eggs.,;,,,
To have eggs light when cxked
outside the shell, stecm them rather
than fry them. Break the eggs in
a platter and add half a cupful of
cold water. Put a spoonful of but
ter in a spider, heat till it emits a
blue smoke, add the eggs and water,
salt, cover and let them steam till
the whites are set. For boiling in
the shell they must be fresh. The
white of a newly laid egg, when
coft boiled is like milk; one day old
like rice boiled in milk; an old rgg,
tough, compact and hard to digest.
WASIIlMTOSn LETTER, i T
Washington, I). C, August IX
If Russia's order W iti minister
to accept a, Chinese escort from
Pekio to Tien 'Tain, after all . the
other ' governments had ordered
their miuisteri to remain In Pekin,
should turn out to mean that a deal
had been made Iwtwtmn Russia and
China there would bo very little
Hurprisolu Washington, where the
probability of one or more of the
powers supposed, to be acting in
concert Against China making some
sort of a dicker on their own hook
for their own benefit has heen
recoguliod from the first as. one of
tho most prcplexing things of the
wholobusiuecs. '
Neither this government nor the
Chinese minister has received any
ollicial notification of tho appoint
ment of LI Hung Chang to boan
envoy for the purpose of suing for
peace. There is nothing improbable
however, about such an appoint
mont; but if made it is not likely
to stop any of tho warlike prepara
tions on the part of the powers. If
present plans are can led out before
lite end of September there will bo
nearly a quarter of a million foreign
troops In China, of which less than
ten thousand will bo American?
Li Hung Chang's request that this
government endeavor to prevent the
landing of British troops at Shang
hai will lie ignored, as it is the
recognized right ot any nation to
laud armed forces in another coun
try when it is considered necessary
to protect the lives and properly of
its oitueus. j. .
Much depends upon how a thing
is done. For a Cuban or Spanhud
or anybody else, to call the average
American a liar means to get
knocked down, yet in'effect they
are constantly calling our govern
ment a liar and a cheat and tho
most that any Aurican does about
it is to scratch his head and won
der if tho talker luia got it straight
Following are words used by Mr.
Roderick Alvarez, of Havana, in ft
Washington hotel, while discussing
tho announced intention of our gov
eminent to withdraw from Cuba
next year: "If the better class o
the Cubans and the Spanish on the
island believed that tho U. . hai,
any intention of turning the island
over to the Cubans you would see
a Bcaltoration and romoval of every
thing movable that would surprise
you. Tho fact of tho matter is, we
all think that the U. 8. will bo in
control of tho island for tho next
ten years. It is not safe to turn
the island over to a people who
utterly incapable of self govern
ment."
Ai usual, the Carnegie aftd Beth
lehem companies submitted bids
for supplying anuor to war ships
which divided the lot required and
made the price the same. A new
bidder, tle Mid vale Steel Co., o
Pennsylvania, entered the contest
with a lower bid, but Betting a long
er timo limit for the delivery of the
armor and failing to specify that
tho armor would bo made by the
Krupp. process. Secretary Long
must decide whether he will accept
either of these bids or exercisa the
authority conferred upon him by
tho last naval appropriation bill to
establish a government plant for
making armor. Ho will take-up
the matter as soon as ho returns to
Washington. ,
Representative Allen ("Private
Jack"), of Mississippi, whoso de
feated aspiration for a seat in the
senate caused him to make promis
es necessitating his retirement from
tho house at tho close of his presen
term, dooHn't appear to be at al
downcast over his early return to
private life. Ho was in Washing
ton this week, and speaking of his
retirement he said: "I hate to quit
for some reasons, but the fact is
that a man must get out sooner or
later, and I do not wish to hang on
until I get to tho patriarchal stage.
,After oixteen years of the legisla
tive grind one is justified In lotting
others serve the country." Speak
ing of the possibility of an extra
session of congress, Mr. Allen was
inclined to be a little 'sarcastic
about the sizzard with which Wash
ington has . been wrestling for a
week. He said: "Thero isn't much
chance of an extra session of con
gress, but in view of Washington's
well morited .reputation as 'a sum
mer resort, I have no doubt the
members and senators would.be
gUd to be summoned here to enjoy
this balmy weather." Tho ther
mometer was dancing around in the
upper nineties while Mr. - Allen
talked. ' , .
Mr. Albert Cobb, of Augusta, Ga.,
is one of those who believes there
will sooner or later bo a big rush of
gold hunters to tho . abandoned
placer mines in Northern Georgia.
While he was in Washington a day
or two ago ho said: "Long years
ago plenty of people were making
money in the placer business there,
hiid I know a number'of men now
who aro washing out ten or fifteen
do(l,irs a day in the little streams
or branches. that run in the mount-
ains. borne very .largo plants are
in operation, and are panning out
good profits, but the real extent of
the' gold veins in those old bills is
not understood generally. In tho
olden days primitive machinery
was in uho in the numerous mines
thaOwere opened and worked until
that machinery became Ineffective,
Then the mines were deserted, and
the consequence is that you can find
deserted gold mines 'scattered all
over that section." '., .
I'ARIH KXruSlTiO.1 LETTER.
From our KttguUr C'orrvxml-ut, .
Paris, France, July 30.
' The buildiugi erected by the two
great countries of the Orient at the
Paris exposition, if not us imposing
as those of o'ti of the other coun
tries, are certainly among tho mmt
typical and homogeneous. China
and Japan, although differing wiuV
ly in cviHtoms, habit and civiliza
tion, have one point in common
both are powerful countries with
distinct . Individualities, extending
even to facial tyjH'S, to architecture,
to eostutues, and even to handwrit
ing, Their re refutation at tho
exposition, In architectural foaturet.j
in decorations, and in surroundings
each having a garden planted
with native flowersgives an idea
of life in the east.
Japan is installed near tho Tro
oudoro, among the buildings of Brit
Itdi India and Egypt. It Is a de
lightful corner of tho Orient, every
thing, as I have said, being char
acteristic, even to the fences which
surround tho enclosure; in Iho gar
den are tiny tree with twisted
brandies; exotio growths of various
kinds; mulberry trees, camphor
trees, mahogany trees; tho princi
pal touch of local color, however, is
given by the Japanese themselves
who work and move among the
curious objects with an easy air of
familiarity; small of stature and
bright of face, they seem to fit Jr
fuetly in their environment.
Tliero aro four houses, in the gar
den; most prominent is a pagoda
built in tho old style of Japanese
architecture; thick and heavy in
construction, it resembles the Chin
ese type more than the modern
habitation which has been placed
in clone proximity, ns if to empha
size the progress made by tho
Japanese in this lino, as in so many
others, in recent years. Tho out
lines of this edifice are delightfully
simple; there are no superfluous ob
jects; everything ho a raison d'etre,
and everything Is in place. A tea
house and bazar complete tho group
of buildings.
Tho pagoda, built by 'French
workmen under the direction of
Japanese, is a copy of the temple of
Hondo, near Nara, and is a moxt
interesting specimen of Japanese
art. The goneral coloring is red
and broiKoj it contains an histori
cal exhibit of objects of Japanese
workmanship sword sheaths, wall
decorations, bronzes, screens, etc
The tea house has been converted
into a restaurant, and one can oh
tain a variety of drinks, including
the native sake, a sort of wine made
from rice. Tho building has two
stories, and is made of wood, in an
open and airy design. The bazar
consists of a series of little shops
range! sido by side; many objects
are for sale, but few can lw said to
bo strictly Japanene; they aro largo
ly of a class to bo found in any of
tho little kiosks scattered through
out tho exposition grounds, and in
hundreds' of places in the United
States. Thero are many factories,
I am told, in America, whore these
Japanese objects of art are tunic
out.
The managers of tho Japanese
exhibit had the original and happy
idea of inaugurating their buildings
at night, tho gardens being illumi
natod by lanterns disposed in uni
que designs; the rosult was charm
ing, emphasizing tho Oriental char-
actor of the scene, and was much
more effective than . tho daylight
inauguration of the exhibits oi
other countries. - .
China is also located in tho
grounds of the Trocadoro, next to
Siberia; a situation which was
doubtless dictated less through re
spect to geographical considerations
than by a desire to install between
the two buildings the panorama of
tho Siberian railway. Visitors to
tho latter take their places in par
lor cars, and see through tho win
dows a moving panorama of scen
ery, representing the country
through which the road posses. The
illustration ot traveling is almost
perfect; ono might well think him
self enroute from Moscow to Pekin.
Tho Chinese also have a garden,
and even a little lake and a stream,
which afford opportunities for

charming decorations in the way of
bridges, promenades, etc, Ono of
the most Striking edifices in this
exhibit is a fcopy of the gieat gate
of. Pekin ono of tho nine which
enter the Chinese capital. Massive
and at 'the same lime brilliant in
color, It is ono of tho best models of
tho art of tho country. ;
Tho most conspicuous building is
a reproduction of a palaoo, four
storied and balconied. Tho first
floor is reserved for an exhibit of
furniture, ancient and modern; up
stairs is a restaurant with Chinese
waiters; there is also a theatre in
tho building.
Near the gate of I'ekiu is a copy
of one of the six pavilions which
constitutes the residence of the Km
pnror In tho capital of tho Celestial
Empire; it is a two storied structure
with large balconies, so arranged
that ono can always find shai ; the
decorations are beautiful, the colors
and contours harmonizing perfect
ly; and tho whole is a pure spec!
mtn of Chinese stylo.
Thero aro also, In this little Chin
so city, other buildings, used as
stores in which vases, furniture and
thcr products of the east .may be
sold; and smaller edifices where
various industries ore displayed;
one can even see a few women all
the more interesting as it is well
known that they are seldom r-
milted to leave their country.
Their tiny feet aro esecia!ly an ob
ject of attention on tho part of vinit
ors, and one can hardly refrain
from shuddering at the thought of
tho suffering they must have under
gone; little i loft of the foot save
the big toe, which is about the sio
of a small a, pie, with a slight pro
jection on tho side of the toe. I ho
whole is not longer than 3 or 4 in
dies.
