Oak Grove residents are justly proud of their new school building, for In i! are embodied the latest Ideas In pro viding for the comfort and convenience of teachers and patrons. It is a sub stantial and attractive brick building Including one story, a large basement and also a sub-basement. There are four large, well lighted school rooms, also a library and a teachers' room. Il has accommodations for about 175 chil dren. There are now enrolled about 75 and the building therefore gives ample provision for the future growth of this enterprising district. Ninth grade work is being given at the school this year for the first time, Miss Hazel Stanton having taken charge or this grade. Albert Sutton was the architect who designed the building and L. P. Hoyrd the contractor. The building is comfortably heated at all seasons, a battery of two hot-air furnaces being used, a uniform tem perature being automatically maintain ed by the use of a thermostatic at tachment. Forced ventilation is secured by the use of an electric motor. There are two drying rooms in the basement where the children's wraps can be hung If necessary. In the main hall is a long bench In front of which are, a line of foot warmers. Oak Grove children will therefore have no excuse for getting "cold feet." Anothr feature of the building is a largo assembly room that Is provided with a stage and may be used for en talnments or community gatherings. There are also two large playrooms In the basement, provision being thereby made for the children's recreation as well as education. The building cost about $20,000.

Snow Banner of trie World's Most Im pressive Mountain, Travelers declare that Mount Shasta Is the most impressive mountain In the world, for It stand solitary and alone. Unlike Tikes peak and ninny other of the world's great mountains. It Is not surrounded by a number of lesser ones, and Its tremendous height 14,1-10 feet -is appreciated by the eye. It Is sublimely grand and yet grace fully beautiful. Against the blue of a California sky its curved outlines seem to sweep In the perfect segments of a clrcla from the apex of the cone to the horizon. Far up on its base the dark green of the timber line Is met by the virgin w hiteness of Shasta's snow, and then on, up and up, far past the summer clouds, imiIiiIs the alabaster pyramid. Shasta is an extinct volcano and has two large glaciers. The Whitney gla cier is visible from the rnllroad. It looks like a narrow streak of snow, but It Is over a mile In w idth nnd Is seam ed with great tlssures and crevasses. At (lines a natural banner Is unfurled from Shasta's peak. This Is called the "snow banner of Shasta." It only oc curs when the gale attacks the summit nnd blows the snow In great gusts "streaming against the sky," as the railroad book has It. The banner la seen most frequently In November. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. COUNTER REVOLUTION PROBABLEIN TURKEY Militarists Consider EnverBey Too Ambitious and Plan to Curtail Power QUAINT WILLS. A Parrot and a Russet Cob That W era I Well Provided For. The making of queer wills is a sub ject proline of good stories, and some remarkable examples are given by Vlr-: gll M. Harris In "Ancient, Curious and Famous Wills." One Caroline Hunter, j an elderly plnster, left 1,000 In trust J for her parrot. The money was to pro-1 vide It with a home nnd to guarantee It ; attention at the bauds of a custodian, who had to be of the femnlo sex and ' had to undertake not to leave England. 1 The will Included this clause: 1 "I w ill nnd desire thnt whoever tries to frustrate these my Intentions shall forfeit whatever I have left him, her ' or them. I owe nothing to any one. ! Many owe me gratitude and money. I but none hnve pnld me either." A rustle of Toulouse nbout 1781 wrote n brief will In these terms: "I deelnre that I appoint my nmset cob my universal heir, nnd I desire that be may belong to my nephew, George." This was contested, but wns con firmed, ns It was clear that the said George In owning tho horse would have control of the money; also he would not be nblo to transfer or dlssl pato the ensh for the simple reason that he would require the horse'a con sent, which would bo difficult to obtain. Constantinople. Gravest apprehen sion of further and more serious dis orders Is felt throughout Turkey. There Is a well-defined rumor that a counter-revolution was planned to overthrow the committee of union and progress that seized the sublime porte after assassinating Nazlru Pasha, commander-in-chief of the army It Is a matter of common knowledge thnt many of the most Influential offi cers of the Turkish army are bitterly opposed to Enver Bey and his bigh handed methods and the newest revo lutionary plot is said to have the back ing of the soldiers now at Chatalja. The militarists credited with plan ning the counter revolution fear the Influence of Enver Bey. They believe he is too radical as well as too ambi tious. They believe that he means to make himself absolute dictator of Tur key, If possible, and that practical an archy would follow the success of his schemes. Adrianople clearly Is the paramount Issue of the Halkan war In the Otto man mind, and It Is believed that re fusal to give up the city would be Tur key's eventual answer to the powers and to the allies, no matter how many revolutions, counterrevolutions and ministers succeeded themselves on the kaleidoscopic pane of the Ottoman empire. London. The Balkan plenipotenti aries, who have received full powers from their respective governments, ap pointed a committee to draft a note to the Turkish plenipotentiaries, explain ing why the pence conference must now be considered broken off.
