"It the powers that be," said a con ductor on a Madison avenue, car, ac-" cording to the New York Commercial Advertiser,. "would make it a misde meanor for a woman to get off a mov ing car backward, fewer people would be injured, thecompany would save money and we conductors wouldn't get gray so quickly. We all try bur best to teach women how to get off a car, but many of them seem to be unable to . learn such a simple thing as that. - "When they fall and are hurt they blame us, for it of course. But what saddens me is the way they resent your ; efforts to teach them how to insure their safety. : I turned one woman half ' way around one day in an eff ort to gat her to step off in the- direction , in which the car was going. She slapped my face, 'sassed' me good and reported me to' the company as an impertinent scoundrel who ought to be- in jail. If I hadn't caught her when I did she would have had a bad fall. 'Encourag ing!, isn't it? What did the company do? Oh, they understand such things all right." - IN CORVALLIS. ONE CANDIDATE FOR CHIEF OF POLI DE RETIRES FROM THE FIELD. ' y Several Citizens .

Jesse Wilev this week bought a handsome span of black roadsters of Mr. Lemaster, who resides near Monroe. They - are -1200-pound animals and Jesse thinks they will make the finest team he has vet fitted for market. The county is ; advertising for bids for construction of a quarter ct a mile of road in the vicinity of Mountain View. The road is a bad stretch alpng the Wood's farm north of Judge Moor's place. The construction work includes grading and gravel or rock work, the spec ifications of which are to be seen at the court house. The repair of the spot will place the Wells road in good condition The bids are to be opened May 20th. The adver tisement is to , be found elsewhere. Ed Clark, a Seattle boree buyer was in town the first ofthe week and secured three fine driving animals, j one from Robert Huston, one from Wm. Bogue and one from Eldridge Hartless.- Thy auima's Were shipped Tuesday. Prices are not given out, but tfesy are said to have been rather on the fancy or der. Another buyer is here now in search of logging horses for the Sound, country and there ere sev eral teams in sight which "he ex pects to secure. ,' The city election - occurs next Monday, but there appears to be an unusual dearth of organized in terest as to the result of the day. But numerous changes and devel opments may occur in a short time when the" voters realize the brief period between- now and " election day. An event which " will have some bearing on the chief of police situation is the withdrawal of Sam King from the contest Tuesday. Mr. King authorized the statement. ; The inter-state oratorical contest of the Collegiate Prohibition League takes place at the college next, Fri- As to take part in a great National contest to be held at St. Louis. , In college1 chapel tomorrow af ternoon at 3 o'clock,: will ,be held a union meeting of the city and college temperance societies.

The remon strances of Mrs. Minnie Arnold, M, Jacobs and Mrs Florence Jones, were presented. The councilmen discus sed the matter at i some lengtn dui no action was taken. The residence " occupied by tbe fafnily ofvCharley Chipman caught fire Wednesday evening and almost the entire fire department was cal led to the scene. .The building was burning between the ceiling and second floor and an ; extensive ,use. of the ax was necessary before the flame could be reached. However, the fire was put out without turn ing water through, the house. The fire was caused from the proximity of the ceiling and ; the stove pipe. A rare coincidence was ? that sim ultaneous an entirely independent fire was in" progress in another part of the building. OneW of the - little children had undertaken to start a fire in the kitchen stove with coal oil and the flame ignited a quantity of clothing hanging over the stove. Mrs. Chipman was away at a neigh bor's when thelirm was given. A Bargain. , If taken soon, 1 acres; one acres in choice bearing fruit.

RIPENING OF CHEESE. a. 'Resent Discovery Which It la . peeted Will ReTOlntianlie . th Business. A hitherto unknown elementin milk, . a new ferment, has been discovered, called galactose, which is proving of valuein . the ripening of cheese. The properties of this ferment are similar to.the secretion of the pancreatic or gan in the human- body,' says Scrib . ner's.,01d cheese is a predie-ested food, and the digestion is wrought by the. galactose. It was found that the galac tose would go on working at very low temperatures, temperatures at which bacteria were practically inert. Cheese wasput into refrigerators' and kept frozen for months. Other cheese was kept just above the freezing point. It was found that the finest cheese is cured at from 40 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit.- Practical cheese manufacturers had maintained that 50 degrees was the lowest temperature at ; which cheese could be worked without becom ing bitter and worthless. The new dis covery will, it is believed, revolution-?, ize cheese- manufacture,, doing away with all curing-rooms, tbe cheese be ing sent directly to the refrigerator. . Free Doctor In Germany. Under an insurance law enacted in Germany several years ago, 30,000,000 people receive in return for a nominal sum free medical attendance. The the ory was that suffering humanitywould receive cheap and effective relief from, its bodily ills, but in practice there are many drawbacks. The doctors hired by the state hold that they are expect ed to do too much for the pay they get. In Munich they get only about $75 per annum. In order to keep down ex penses the doctors are inclined to im press upon the patients that nothing is the trouble with them. Why Girin Can't Throw. A Iiondon physician, having made a long and careful scientific investigation of a girl's inability to throw a'stone as a boy does, says that it is due to the physical conformation frf her shoulder. A boy throws with a free movement of the arm that is not possible with . a girl, because her collarbone is larger and sets lower than the boy's. The girl may excel in sports where this ac tion is not required, but she can never learn to throw like s boy. Best Ibat Grows Is none too Good, When you are Y Drinking coffee.
