The Sheri dan Sun tells the following old atory about Judge Burnett : Yeara ago Judge Geo Burnett, then a yonn? man, taught ecnooi si snenaan. iheriuan at mat time had a pretty tough tet of big boys who had succeeded in worsting several teachers who were obliged to quit be fore the term for which they had hired nad expired. Young Burnett came up on the scene, and was tendered the school. He knew the job he had be fore him bat made so boasts. Cue day shortly after the beginning of his term, . he asked one of the youn men to per form a certain duty. Full of confidence adduced by former triumphs over peda gogic authority, the student told Bur nett to perform the duty himself, if he wanted, it done. As quick as a flash, Burnett who was then, as now, an ' athelete, sprang upon the bulky pupil and hastily mopoed the floor with him until the student as thoroughly satis fied. Two or three other big bovs tried the mettle of the young pedagogue, but they invariably found him too much for them. Eli Branson, one of Sheridan's 'old timers, says Geo Burnett was the first man who ever taught his term ont in Sheridan. Burnett was always dig nified even when a -boy, and early pos sessed those qualities ot mind that have in later years helped him to attain his present honorable position, viz: in nate integrity an-J the lion-like coarse of his every conviction of right. From a nervy teacher who could fight for the schoolroom, he has graduated to a cir cuit court judge, and it is eaid he still retains enough of his old-time ideas of deportment to take no ' back talk" from would-be ''fresh" advocates of the law. Badly Wiped Oct. The foot ball game at Salem Saturday was a one sided affair, u was anticipated. It was ex perience against inexperience. The Statesman gives the following account of the game : The game of football yester day afternoon on the university campus between the Salem and Albany VMCi teams resulted in a one-sided affair, the Salemitee scoring fifty-eight to the visi tors nothing. There waj the usual din caused by those of the spectators who were armed with tin horns and good, strong lungs and the enthusiasm over the success of the home team ran high. It was very evident that the Albany boys are lacking in training and practice while the Salems played almott perfect in every instance. During the game Turner, Albany's right baif back, was slightly injured and McCully was sub situ ted in the second half. The score consisted of ten tonchdowss, eight goals, and one safety, making the fifty-eight points. -Chester Murphy acted as ref eree, Mark Savage umpire, a-d Roy Miller linesman. The receipts at the gate were about $13.50 while the expense of bringing the Albany boys down was over $25. HABHrswrgQ .

REBECCA Mrs Rebecca Young died. suddenly at the home of her daughter Saturday evening, Dac 15, 180-1, of appoplexy. Not feeling well she ate her meal alone in the sitting room, while the family were in the dining room. Her daughter upon going into the room to see if she wanted anything found her lying dead in her chair, her napkin neatly folded and her dish upon an adjoining chair. Funeral services were held this after noon. Her pastor for many years, Rev S G Irvine 1) D, has dictated the following sketch ot bar life : Mrs Young was born in Steuben county, N Y, on April 9, 1S14. Her parents removed to Ohio when she was but live years ot age and settled in Helmea county. She was married July 12, 1J31 to Isaac Young. They lived to gether and walked in harmony down the pathway of life like Isaac and Rebecca ot old. durimr the lornr Deriod of fortv five years. Mr Young departed this life in la, 0. Their lauiuy consisted ot seven children, but two of whom survive her. Mr Samuel E Young and Mrs Weltha Sox. Mrs Young lived in Ohio until the year 1844, when they emigrated to Burmingham, Iowa. In the year 18.V2 in company with their brother-in-law Dr Wni Miller they emigrated across the plains to Oregon. After coming to Ore gon they resided for a few months in Washington county. Thev moved to the vicinity of Albany in 1853. Their home was at first on the other side ot the river, where a son Kelson, a young man 21 years ot age was taken from them by death. Tbey moved into the town of Albany in 1S56" and Mrs Young haa been a constant resident ever since. She naa not only been well known and esteemed by the community at large as a useful citizen but has been loved and respected for her benevolent and relig ious life. She made a public profession of her faith in Christ soon after their re moval to Iowa and connected with the United Presbyterian church. Daring their long and tedious trip across the plains she found opportunity to minister with her willing hands to many a sick and suffering one. Her serenity of tem per and kindliness of heart which n ark ed ter whole life were specially noticed in the trying scenes on the plains and the early privations of pioneer life. One who traveled with her spoke of her as almost the only person in the train who was always serene and pleasant. Dnr ng her lite ot more than torty years in Albany she seemed to search out, as if by instinct almost, every case of sick ness and distress within her reach. She never passed by on the other side but atwavs administered to the distressed and gave relief when it was poss.ble- The religious side of her lite was quite as well marked as her b nevolence. She joined the U P church of Albany in 1853 and her name was signed to the catl for the first pastor on June 19, 1S57. She has thus been a constant member of the congregation for I lie period of 41 vears. bince ttie death of her husband Mrs Young found a home and affectionate care in the famlies of her eon and daugh ter. While she never enjoyed very vigorous health at any period of her life she was kindly spared in considerable comfort during her declining yeara and was mercifully allowed to depart in peace m ilhout a pang or a shudder in her final hour.- After partaking of her even ing meai she fell asleep rurrounded by her loved ones and in full possession of the joyous christian faith which had sustained her during the yeara of her long life. To her death could scarcely nave been a dark valley and shadow but was rather a peaceful entrance fnto a cigner life. Her memory remains a precious heritage to her family, to many loving friends in the community and to the church with which she was connected. Mrs C O Lee returned this noon from a visit to Corvallis.

The teaching of the Kindergarten i psirtly by song and play used instinctively the world over, and now as a means of heathfully feeding the receptive mind. Likewise the teaching by qaestion and answer. Not the dull cate chism learnt by rote in former years; but the question suggested alreadly by some thing else, that draws out thought and idA in the childish answer. K. G. Ttev have been taring a hot time in Corvallis over the water works bonds. A correspondent in the Times gets hot and asks: Was it good fctitb to the taxpayers for a majority of the council to agree to pay the water company S,000 more for their property than it I worth, without nuking any effort to gvl it for less?

ALBANY TO PRINEVILLE. A Spicy Account of am Interesting irip. Eip.tn Dr mix rat: Of all sweet words in prose or poem, the sweetest are these: "Once more at borne." A trip frem Portland to Prineville at this season of the year via Albany and Lebanon would be an undertaking at which one wuuU hesitate; but via The Dalles, while not a, pleasant trip, is possible and can be easily made in seven days. Vt e left The Dal lew at 6 a 11 on Monday, tho nay fnllnwinir hn hmvy storm which raged in the valley, while there was rain here, they had snow east of the Caerade mountains Wether with strong winds, causing the snjw to drift badly. On account cf the snow, the stage company found it necessary to lay off their Pullman cars; using instead a buckboard, which for "comfort, durability - .I -...!-' 1 -- 1 .it. . rr-i 1- 1 1 and style' can w l-UTiicu, iw onii uay we wallowed threugh the "beastiful" for a distance of hfty miles. As the company bad also discontinued tteir sleeping ear service, we were obliged to lay over thut night at fluke Oven, which, by the way is a missnoiner. lor of all the cold places, this certainly ranks first Wood and coat are expensive, consequently tbey use no more than is alsotntely necessary. For a person coming in from a long cold ride with hamis and feet in a congealed condition the sight of the stove was anvthinir but chTing. Nest morning we arose before the lark, for lis not yet, nwrn, Tis the Nightengale and not the lark, which duih pierce the hollow of thine ear." We got started at 3:30 and bad a ride el 16 mile over the cold bleak table lands, before breakfast, just as an eye opener! There was one consolation, however. 16 miles is not as far as twenty would I. Tbu second day we make seventy mile, landing in Prineville it 6 p m. One of the first citizens to greet us was Judge Mason K llrink, who, in addition to political honors, baa Ua taking on considerable art rdupoia. The town bay scales are the only ones whuh will register bis 215 11m weight. There seems to be tome virtue in the climate for Prof Leo Liggett, formerly of Albany, weigbs 24a lbs. lie is now princir; of the public school.

He, too, it getting the benefit of the cli male, having ?dned two lbs. lie now weighs 97. bile times, financially, are quiet, ow ing principally to the prices of wool and c".Ue, there is still considerable money in circulation, and thins tok better than tavough the Wi&asMUa vsJiev.

There is one thing ore; if the red is ever extended east on the line cf te present surrey, there will be a larr town built about thirty miles south of Prineviil. which will be a death Uow to the future of tii prucperoas town.
