Harpor a magarir.e for July finds a novel
field for the portrayal of character and the
description of scenery in the lowlands of Vir
giniathe old aristocratic "tide-water" re
gion, rich in historic associations, and ex
ceedingly picturesque in its memorial relics
ei the old time. The opening article of the
nmnber devoted to this subject, and entitled
"oosne Landmarks of Old Virginia," is con
trikuted by Allen C. Redwood, who uses his
pencil as effectively as his pen. There are
two illustrated papers on foreign subjects.
A. H. Guernsey contributes one on the pecu
liar features of the worship of Juggernaut in
Orista. The other, entitle.! "A First Week
in England," introduces to us the quaint old
houses and rows of Chester, to Ludlow Cas
tle, where Milton wrote his "Comas," and to
the fine old cathedral at Hereford. The
nal stones by William Black and Thomas
Hardy are continued. Charles Da Kay eon-
tributes a vivacious short story, entitled "A
Wife Bust," and James Payn humorously
, describe aa "Adventure in the Forest," in
the vain search for Dickens' Maypole Tnn
The editorial department are full of enter
taining and timely information. Among
the many funny things ia the Drawer in
cluding another remarkable "colored debate"
is a very taking poem by John Vance

Ast week a gentleman from Polk county
killed an enormous black bear near Lava
Lake on the mountain road. The bear met
him on a deer trail and showed fight, and the
hunter put nine buckshot in his body. Giv
ing a death shriek that reverberate-1 and ech
oed through the canyon for miles, the old
fellow tamed over on his side and died with
out a struggle. His head was fully as large
as tnat of a full-grown cow, and had he been
fat he would have weighed 500 or 600 pounds.
One day weak before last Mr. Hcnsley was
fishing from a canoe on Clear Lake only a
short distance from the shore when a very
large brown or cinnamon bear came down the
mountain and took charge of his raft which
was moored at the shore. Mr. Hensley had
been cleaning fish on the raft and bruin stav
ed nntil he had eaten up everything he could
find and then departad. Mr. H. had no sun
with him and the bear looked too thin, poor
ana aSectionate for a man to tackle him with
nothing tint a fish hook.

If any one thinks our city is not taking a
mighty jump forward this year they must be
blind. Ever since the building season began
the sound of the hammer, saw and trowel has
been continual and a great many buildings
have been erected. McHwain's tiro story
brick is now just about completed, excepting
the inside work; ihe walls of Foster's two
atory brick are nearly up; the excavations for
the basement of the Odd Fellow Temple are
oorqpleted and bricklaying win commence in
a few days on that building. This week
Clark, Davis ft Co. have received the eon
tract for two more new bricks n a, belong
ing to Wm. Peterson, will be erected on the
corner of First and Ferry.and will be 23x100;
two stories high; the other building is to be

Linn Base Ball Club goes to Salem to-day
to play a match game with the club of that

persons: Riggs, e ; C. Belt, p ; Gray, a s ;
Moore, 1st b; Cross mm, Sd b; Hoyt, 3d b;

boys will labor at a disadvantage in playing
as they have not had but one practice game
since appearing at Portland, their captain and
pitcher having been up in the mountains.
They are good players, all of them, and even
without practice will no doubt make a very
good showing to-day. If they win the purse
offered it will be fine a vietory, and if they
lose it they have the pluck te "pick their
flints and try it again."

this part of the business we hare much to do.
We will premise by observing that at present
one is a nobody, if one does not belong to an
archery club. Piano playing is superseded
operatic screams are hushed, and when one
does no coaching one practices shooting at
target. All this of eonse gives a wonderful
impulse to short costumes. Every known
device is resorted to in order to render them
just as coquettish as possible. Chiefest of all
perhaps, our would be Dianas affect Hunter'

takes rank as extremely stylish. It is effect
ively contrasted with pale shades of ffavme.
or use costume may be composed of Hunter'
green lightened by admixtures. Then again
we find brilliant combinations of divers hues,
to say nothing of the dazzling results of gilt
or silver braiding, buttons, and other metal
ornaments. Let me add a word about vests.
Tis cot inappropriate, for just now the vest,
in more nsss than one, lies close to the fern

this direction is something marvellous, but
there is a good deal to show in return.
Vests are now even sold separately, and worn
upon occasion with d liferent suits. Black
costumes are relieved by the most masculine

black and white checked. Bicher vesta are

BATHING ASD YACHTDTG SrrrS.

acnung suits are ox navy blue or corn
batiste, re)ie ed by braiding in which anchors
are conspicuous. The irrepressible kilt skirt
appears. Sometimes the waist is a plaited
blouse to match, or again, it is in one with
the skirt. The sailor collar, with anchor in
the corners, is an indispensable finish. The
innate ugliness of bathing suits are modified
by additions of fancy braiding, and here also
we find little anchors worked on sailor collar
and cuffs. For material both flannel and
serge are employed; the latter of course be
ing preferable, but more expensive. - Flannel
suits vary from $5 to t 10; serge from S3 to
15. Scarce in this connection, yet too pret
ty to be passed by, are some costumes lately
alaing and house costumes let it be
understood. The first was a walking cos
tume made Theresa princess dress of dam-
assee grenadine and silk both deep green.
The new mantalet was in shape the new
Mignon Visit, made in black silk, and trim

Let us say a word as to engagement rincs.

the aoint of buying one. Say then my irood
Somebody, to your Theodore, that fashiona
ble ones are now so slenderly made as scarce
to seem triers than a golden thread, though,
true enough the solitaire diamond glitters in I
the center, If neither you or Theodore like
diamonds ( which means that as sensible
young people you intend to begin economi
cally), then you may choose pearls, emeralds
or sapphires. Very pretty rings are of col
ored and white pearls united, and it may be
added that the medallion setting is most
fashionable. Scarf p jis are the rage; and are
all the more convenient because the earrings
need not match. But then wo do find very
pretty sets scarf pins and earrings to cor
respond. As to the earrings ia general, they
are short, and close to the ear.
No one who makes a business of being
tashionable will fail to have a bright red par
asol for driving. Bright red, with a terrible
looking club for the handle. Only some de
grees less striking are parasols of satia, over
spread with small figure) or stripes in ap
pearance exactly like that used by gentle
men for era rata. Charming parasols are of
brocaded silk in refined shades, and plain
silk parasols are beautifully embroidered and
edged with fine white and black lace.
CtJEIOaTIIS OF HOCSEXBEPUfO.
The other day I was greatly interested 'in
going over the St. Nicholas hotel. The per
feciion of dicipline which prevails seems to
my somewhat disorderly imagination quite
wonderful. The dining-room, with it3 corps
of waiters, the ranch room, the runre's din
ing room, the kitchen with its white capped
chef, the dish washing, reduced to a science,
the arrangements for keeping the plates and
dishes always warm, are edifying spectacles.
Below are the ice house, hung with meats
and vegetables, the pantry kitchen, the ser
vant's dining room. Above, in the linen
room, five persons are kept constantly em
ployed in the one department. But the half
is not told. Sometime when you are in the
city go the rounds, and take a lesson in sys
tematic and beautiful housekeeping. You
will be rewarded, and if you are once an in
mate of this grand old house, you will never
be found elsewhere.

or this young mother'e flrat-born ch!U. Haw surge
Through every heart, and tromble in each onl
EmotioBs whone fruition baffles every

at every step this boms of Learniof Ukes.
Tie but the first ot miny y to come,
from uut the forest's plentitude, strong- bands
Will bear their prize, till ripened centuries
Will reveal a glorlods phalanx, from whose
Midst thy topmost boughs will wave in triumph
a tne urst-born of the train the pioneer
Of all the brilliant host. From north snd south,
Prom net snd west, tbe gentle winds thst kiss
Our serrate bills will sway thy pliant arms.
And bear upon their broken billows, words
Of cheer from those wh trained thy tender shoots.
Those host words bars christened thee to-day.
And who hare climbed abr.xwt the rujrjred path
To claim the honors whic.i this hour brings forth,
Will leave those h'Ule. The last farewells will fall
Like tear drops os tho heart. Tholr parting sighs
Will linger in these hannts snd weave a spell
Around this scene that Time can never mar.
On Life's Highway their solemn march begins.
And phantoms of the desert sands will raise
Thctr ghastly shapesthe arid dust win rattle
Oo the splendid casket of tholr dead, and
Time's breed wings will brush the mold from many
A gilded cenotaph: But these frai! limbs
Will bloom and broaden ia tie inn and stand
A Hving landmark of the past the best
And dearest spot on all the broad domain.

Last Friday Miss Mary Wheeler and two
other ladies started to go over the Calapooia
for blackberries, and while attempting to
cross the stream on tbe saw logs in the pond
Miss V heeler supped and fell into the water.
As the logs rolled very lively her friends
could render her bat very little assistance,
and she would very probably have drowned
had not some men come to the rescue. It is
rather dangerous for persons te attempt
crossing the Calapooia on these logs anless
they have had some experience ia such feats
of balancing.
