A newly illustrated msfraztne, with
tbe taking title of "The Reader," : to
started in New York, next month. "The
Reader" announces that it will provide
the reading public of the United States
with a literary magazine, at once enter
taining, unprejudiced and authorative.
Further than this, it promises to be both
good and popular, and not only will it
contain such literary departments as re
views, bibliography, libraries and the
drama but its contents will also include
short stories, poems and several popu
lar literary articles of general interest of
each month. It is to be a 25 cent m ig
azine and conducted on a large scale.
Last Saturday afternoon a merry
crowd from Oregon City took the boat
for Portland, and on their way back the
steamer got stuck on the rapids, so tbe
passengers asked the captain if he
would not let them get off and walk, as
it looked rather dubious for a supper
and bed. Tbe caDtain rather smiled,
and twelve went ashore single file over
rooks and through brush and sand. It
seemed three miles, when all at once a
barbed wire fence came in view and the
ten ladies had to be lifted carefully over
the gate by two good looking young
men, whose names all promised not
to mention. They beat the boat in ten
minutes.
Gorton's Minstrels,

An excellent musical entertainment
was given in the Y. M. C. A. parlors
Monday night by the Brown sisters and
Miss Virginia Jau.es of Portland. Owing
to the fact that other things were going
on in ths city on that evening the at
tendance was rather small, but the mu
sical productions and readings by Miss
James were none less appreciated by
those who were preeent. The Misses
Brown are granddaughters of that fa
mous old historic character, Jhn
Brown, and of course this fact adds
much to their popularity. They are do
ing evangelical work and give these
pleasing musieales as an aid toward de
fraying their expenses in traveling
throughout the country.

Tl" evil repute of Halifax implied In
the ndnpo "Go to Halifax!" came to it
by inheritance from Halifax in York-
shire, England. Halifax law, ns may
bo gathered from a letter of Iord
Leicester quoted by Motley, was that
criminals should be "coudemned first
nnd inquired upon afterward."
Halifax lay within tho forest of
Ilnrdwlck, whore tho law was thntif a
felon was taken with 13V4 pence worth
of stolen goods ho should be tried by
four rlrth burgers from four of the pre
cinct towns nnd if condemned by them
be banged tho next day. After this
proceeding had been carried out to the
letter tho case might be sent to a Jury.
Halifax Is also credited with being
