The Oregon Trunk Railway on
Monday began the construction
of a sixteen-stall roundhouse at

PROGRESS OF A PRODIGY.
Upward Trend and Bottom Stop of a
Brainy Youth.
Xorbert rcmtlethwiilte was a wonder
ful boy. When but eleven month old
he could repeat the alphabet elear
hroiiuh from eitln-r end of It ami at
nix years old had memorized the Dee-
liiniMim of Independence. At the un
timely apo of fourteen he wan fitted
for college la mstiheinath-i. philosophy,
ancient find mKVni lansnugen and the
scieiiem, and In h-ss than three years
after filtering he completed the reeu
lar four yearn' eourne uud received the
degree of bachelor of arts at the riiw
ace of seventeen.
Thus this brainy youth proceded up
the bill of learning until, when he was
twenty-one years old, he was truly au
appalling example. lie was es famil
iar with the hue Aristotle, Plato. Ile-
mostheues and all such an you and I
are with William J. Bryan, and had
lie chanced to iiun't In the highroad a
centleinan who addressed him In ei
ther of seven different languages and
dialects he would have had a working
notion as to whether the stranger
opined It looked like rain or merely
wished to pick a fight.
But, although thus armed, equipped
and overload!, he found when he
went forth to baltle with the world
that some one had stolen the ladder to
success and that hia neck was too
thin to permit him to hold a Job as a
street ear conductor. Our learned hero
was nothing daunted, however, but
straightway mounted the lyeeum plat
form and. displaying his matchless
eruditeuess to jieople who had very lit
tle idea what he was talking about,
was for a time a notable success.
Presently, however, untoward fate
again assailed our hero. Moving pic
ture showa and ten cent vaudeville
sprung op like noxious weeus ana
speedily put the Intellectual treat on
the hummer. But Xorbert, again equal
to the emergency, procured an appro
priate costume, converted Ills lecture
luto burlesque, and with his spindle
shanked neck, overhanging brows and
a squeaky chuckle he was a veritable
scream as a silly boy monologist lie
Is now diligently practicing a song and
dance, and as soon as he fully masters
a funny fall of his own invention and
a new and exceedingly humorous way
of splttiug, which he has already
thought out, he expects to climb Into
polite vaudeville on the big circuits,
where he can doubtless soon dictate
his own price.
Because of the manner In which he
overcame every obstacle In his path
way we should feel warranted In giv
ing three hearty cheers for Norbert
Tostlethwalte. Tom P. Morgan In

"Did you lenrn any French while

"Good," said Bildad. "What is ciga

Maintaining Discipline.
"The manager discharged Jibbs."
"What for?"
"Jibbs said that the boss" son, the
junior partner, was a fool and an ass.
"Well, well:"
"The manager didn't discharge Jibbs
so much for that either as to maintain
discipline. He said Jibbs bad no right
to expose the secrets of the house."

The Band Entertained
A brass bind is as a rule expect
ed to furnish entertainment but
this order of things was reversed
on last Thursday evening when
Miss Dolly Hodges and Mrs. C. O.
Pollard gave an informal reception
at the home of the latter in honor
of the l'rineville Military Band
After a few instrumental num
bers luncheon was served on the
lawn.
A novel feature of the affair was
in the Selecton of partners. Each
lady present was furnished a folder
containing a miniature photograph
of the member of the band with
whom she was expected to dine.
How the hostess secured the photos
of the individual band men was
for a time a mystery.
