K. A. Farr, of Ibis city, will condili t
one of the many side shows at the state
fair next week. Mr. Farr owns a num.
lier of real animal freaks that are well
worth while going to see. Among the
animals Mr. Farr will exhibit at Salem

five legged sheep, three legged dog and a
number of freak chickens. Mr. Farr
will lie accompanied by George GriHith

The State Commission to the St. Louis

not over 30 inches in diameter at the
base, was reported, and later, another
tree, one half of which was petrified and
the other half still tree, was otlered to
the Commission. These seem a little out
of the common, but Oregon produces
such wonderful things that, in all proba
bility, the Commission will have these
things investigated to see if they are
what is claimed for them.

A TEMPEST OF BATTLE.
Itlrrlnc Dracrlptioa of Cavalry
Char at GaHribar.
A cavalry charge met by a counter
charge of cavalry la still perhaps the
most terrible spectacle witnessed in
war. If the reader has never seen such
1 charge he can form little conception
of lta awe Inspiring fury. Imagine
yourself looking down from Gettya
burg's heights upon the open, wide
spreading plain below whera 6,000
horses are marshaled In battle line.
Standing beside them are 6,000 riders
I armed, booted and spurred and ready
I to mount The bugles sound tVe
! "Mount"' and Instantly 5,000 plumes
rise above the horses as the riders
spring Into their saddles. In front of
the resiKvtlvo squadrons the daring
leaders take their places. The flutter
ing pennants or streaming guidons, ten
to each regiment, mark the left of the
companies. On the opposite slope of
the same plain are 5,IKK hostile horse
men clad In different uniforms ready to
meet these In countercharge. Under
those 10,000 horses are their hoofs, Iron
shod and pitiless, beneath whose furl
ous tread the plain Is soon to quiver.
Again on each slope of the open fleid
the bugles sound. Ten thousand sabers-
leap from seabbnrds and glist 'n in t':e
aun. The trained horses e!:afc their re
straining bits, and as the bi'jr'e nrt'

these furious riders plunge, their sweep

Illi Bad Memory.
