In a letter to a friend in this city, H5?ill Johnson tells of some condi tions on the World's Fair grounds at St Louis. He says the exhibits will not all be in place by the open ing day, and advises visitors not to be there until a little later. Up to Monday of last week, nothing had been done on the Oregon exhibit, and there was some trouble in the work on account of labor complica tions. In the construction of the Oregon booth three union labor men, with Mr. Johnson and Mr. Douglas of Albany were engaged. Mr. Johnson's letter continues J" We had not been long at work before a walking delegate of the union ap peared and tried to make us quit. We had three union carpenters working and he threatened to take them off the job if we kept on. This gave us a little scare so we referred the matter to Senator Wehrung. He told us to go ahead which we did. The next day the delegate came again while Senator Wehrung was with us and they had quite an argu ment, the result of which was that Senator Wehruing told him that if he did not get off our space and stay off, that he would smash his face for him. Since that time we have not been bothered, but as we are not yet out of the woods it is not too late for trouble. Tomorrow we commence tacking up the burlap and as this is claimed to be union labor it may come then. Union carpenters are getting 65 cents per hour. Those in the edu cational block struck for 75 cents per hour, but could' nt make it. I think it safe to say that nothing will be completed by April 30th, and for this reason would not ad vise the Corvallis people to come at that time. .

Perfect Rubber Band Thr6kgh Flesh A Mystery and a Guess. its Here is a story about a dog. Vir gil Watters has one that went lame 10 days ago. After repeated ex aminations as to the cause, a rub ber band was finally found encir cling a portion of the limb above the knee. The reason that only a portion of the limb was encircled was that the band passed through the fleshy part of the limb in the rear, leaving a part untouched by the band. , Of course, the first guess was that some boy had run his knife throughthe dogs leg and then slipped the rubber through and tied the ends and slipping the knot back into the wound. That theory was quickly exploded however, and the mystery of the case deepened when it was found, on removal, that the band was perfect, and without a knot m it. The surmise now is, that when the dog was yet a puppy the band was slipped over the tiny limb, and as time went on the limb grew larger the band pressed deeper and deeper into the flesh; that by and by it was so far in that the flesh outside of it grew together and continued to en large until the mischievous band had actually become a part of the leg. The dog is now seven months old. Since the removal of the band, the lameness has disappeared. Parip, April 21. The Yinkaw correspondent of the Paris Journal Bays he has tried repeatedly to as certain the extent of the recent dis asters to the Russian arms, and he has failed to do eo because of the perfectly organized secrecy of the Russians. In his concluding state ment, he says: "The people of France will be 0- bliged to be satisfied with notices! marked 'official or semi-omeial statements sent trom Harbin or Mukden many miles removed from the actual scene of the war. I ana close to Port Arthur, and might give the true version of many inci dents, the news of which, as pub lished, has been mere conjecture, but the Russians strictly forbid all communications of land or sea events. At the moment of sending this message, grave happenings are proceeding on the peninsula; in fact, I am told that another battle is being fiercely contested in the neighborhood of Port Arthur.

Senator Booth Again Contributes for the Purpose Boys, go Soon. ; The class in animal husbandry at the college is to make another tour of Oregon stock farms this spring. Senator Booth contributed a sufficient sum of money to pay the expenses of the class for the tour, and he has made, a donation for the same purpose again this year. .Last year the class visited nve of the principal stock farms in the Willamette Valley, including the well known Ladd farm at Reed ville, and the J. B. Stump farm in Polk County. This year, the tour is to be more extended, and will oc cupy more time. At these the boys will have more opportunity to see and study seven different breeds in fancy cattle, a wide variety of sheep and several breeds of swine. At each place the manner of keeping, the character of the buildings, and the methods of feeding will be ob servable. In all respects . the trip will be of great value to the stu dents who are to go. The expense of the trip is estimated at S250. The friendship shown the college and its work by Senator Booth in this manner is creditable alike to the senator and to thes institution The announcement that the sum would be available for the purpose was made by Senator Booth to Dr, Withycombe in Salem the other day. , .
