Wo find our now nunrters much more com modious and better lighted than the old. It was a most ar duoua task to move and set up the cnuinment. but it was ac comnlished in cood shape. Th most vexatious feature, how ever, was the exasperating delay in getting connected with pow nr. The red tnnc with whicl Portland is entirely too tightly bound had to bo run out, involv ing the purchase ol a new motor, when wo had a perfectly cood one. But it was not th kind that Portland would allow to be installed, although it had seen more than fourteen years of faithful and cHlciont service Ab a result wo did not get nt tached to the power until '1:30 this. Friday, afternoon. As our typesetting machine runB by power, we were unable to use it as well as the presses. There fore, we oiler to our readers vorv noor ano ogy for a news paper this week.

There are more than iJOO.000 prevent nhlo deaths In the United States every year, There arc a million and a half people lying on sick beds In the United States nny day In the year Wild should not havo been there. Such are thu dec Inratlons made In the University of California .Journal of Agriculture by the distinguished economist Irvine Fisher, professor of political economy In Vale university. "Human life Is needlessly shortened nt leust fifteen years In the fulled States," declares Professor I'lsher. "Moreover preventable tll.enoH, even when not fatal, cripple the power to worlc and mar the Joy of llvlnie. 1 ven ture the opinion," ho says, "that the nvcriiKo man or woman In thu United Stale Is not iIoIiik half of the worlt nor IiiivIiik half of the Joy of work of which the human Ileitis is eapalilo.' While there Is now a derreased loss of life from Infection by the jjerin ills eases, there Is an liicreitM-d loss of life after middle iiku from the dcKcncrntlve diseases, Hitch as liiirili'tiliitf of tho ar terles or llrlKht'a disease. Neglect of Individual hygiene Is declared by Pro fessor l'"lsher the chief cause of this degeneration, and he urges every onu to observe absolute cleanliness, to eat the proper foods, to worl: hard, but to play and rest and sleep, too, and to avoid worry. 'The secret of life and of happiness," says Professor Fisher, "seems to be In tuklng ones life anil woru cheerfully Almost any one can assume this attl tilde If tho proper desire Is present." CADETS OF CHAPULTEPEC. Heroism of Gallant Little Dand of Mexican Schoolboys. Tho defensu of Chapnllepee during the war between the Pulled Slates and Mexico In 1817 was almost as gallant as was the attack. In this attack forty eight Mexican cadets, among others, lost their lives. The story Is a stirring one. For many years the celebrated castle of Chapnllepee, wheie Miintexiiliiii held his barbaric court In the sun minding Cloves of cypress, where during nearly three cent in Ich lived the suitomhIvo viceroys of Spain and wheie Maxlinll Ian made his Impeilal homo, has been the West Point of Mexico. When Ceneral Scott hud taken the place by storm and (leiieral llrnvo had siirieiidered, n .Mexican cadet only llf I ecu years old, seeing the ling of his country In po-il, most of his comrade being uliciidjk slain, il'nibed ib ling hi it IT. tore the haulier rutin Us placo, wound h iiroiind his bmly and slid liowu.
