This Is the first time that a Catholic has spoken on the Chautauqua : t form here, although the Eastern Chau tauqua platforms regularly engage more or less Catholic talent.

' C. H. Dauchy, Sr., and wife of Glad stone Park, were severely burned Fri day at their home by the burning of one hundred pounds of powder. Mr. Dauchy is connected with the Oregon Safety Rock and Smokeless Gunpowder Company and spends his time manu facturlng the powder. He was stir ring a kettle over the fire In the open air. The rule in making the powder is that the Ingredients must be mixed off the fire. Mr. Dauchy was In hurry and put some syrup left from a former batch in the boiling kettle. Some of the mixture immediately gran ulated and the whole kettle catching fire went up In a flash. Mrs. Dauchy was standing near, scraping a paddle that her husband needed to stir the mixture. The ket tle has a flaring top which caused the flames to spread. The shock threw Mrs. Dauchy to the ground and the flames burned her severely on te face and arms, also burning away a lot of her hair. Mr. Dauchy was also severely burned on the arms and had a quantity of powder burned into his face In addition to having his beard and hair singed nearly off. The couple were alone In the yard, but Miss Olson, a neighbor, was In the house. Mr. Dauchy ran In and tele phoned to Dr. Norris while Miss Olson went for help, then noticing that the dry house was on fire and realizing that everything would be lost if some thing was not done at once, Mr, Dauchy went out and tore away part of the burning roof with his hands burned in blisters. His presence of mind saved their home, a quantity of powder, and the surrounding out-build ings. The powder which is made there will not explode unless It is ignited under heavy pressure. Mr. Dauchy says that the accident was wholly due to his thoughtlessness In mixing the stuff over the flames. Mrs. Dauchy is suffering a great deal. He eyes are swelled completely shut and a ring on one of her fingers had to be filed off on account of the swelling. UNIVERSITY IS GRATEFUL.

The people who have been clamor ing for a new school district in the Logan section were successful Mon day when the district boundary board granted the petition for the establish ment of the new district, to be creat ed out of the dlst.'cts of Lower Lo gan. Evergreen, Redland and Linn's Mill. The petitioners states that their children have to walk too far to their respective schoolhouses. That the law prescribing the appor tionment of state taxes conflicts with the Oregon constitution and Is there fore Invalid, is the gist of a decision rendered In the Circuit Court by Judge Galloway. The case at hand was the suit brought by Yamhill County to prevent payment of alleged excessive taxes to the State Treasurer. The suit reads. County of Yamhill vs. County Treas urer Foster and State Treasurer Steel" wherein the former la enloln- ed from paying and the latter from col- lectlng the sum of $22,482 excessive state tax for 1907, alleged to have been wrongfully and arbitrarily apportioned to this county by the state board. and arguments on the demurrer were heard Saturday. Attorney General Crawford, who ap peared for the state, contended that the money collected by the county was for a specific purpose and must be turned over to the state If levied and collected for the purpose of being ap plied to the payment of state tax; fur thermore, that the taxpayers and not the county should have brought the suit. The county was represented by Mar tin L. Pipes and McCain & Vinton. The attorneys for the plaintiff attacked the constitutionality of the law of 1901, prescribing the mode of apportioning the state tax and cited numerous au thorities to prove that a county could sue and to be sued and could resist the collection of taxes unjustly or un equally levied, as It was contended they were under this law. The court overruled the demurrer. The Attor ney General declined further to plead and gave notice of appeal, whereupon the injunction was declared perpetual on the grounds that the law conflicted with the constitution. CHANGE IN RURAL ROUTE. No. 3 Will Be Shortened for Benefit 6f No. 4. Postmaster Randall has recommend ed a change In rural, delivery routes Nos. 3 and 4, and it is expected that the department will approve his recom mendation. No. 3 now runs from Ore gon City to- Beaver Creek and then 3-4 of a mile south to Studeman's, where the carrier of route No. 4 is met and the mail for No. 4 transfer red. It is the postmaster's plan to shorten the route of No. 3. and make the connection at Beaver Creek store, where the carrier on No. 4 will have an opportunity to route his mail, and will also receive It earlier In the day, shortening the route of No. 3 and lengthening that of No. 4, who will go to Studeman's via Daniels, and cover his usual route as heretofore.
