THTJESTJA-y:
Eight Aprils. The Salem Tost linn
figured the following out : In 18S7 gen
eral frosts occurred in Oregon as late as
tho 18th; rainfall was excessive; ground
wet and spring late : warm dry weather
began May 15 and the warmest day on
record was the 29th. In 188$ April was
dry and warm. Damaging frosts occur
red until the 8th, strawberries were ripe
on the 25th ; new potatoes dug on the
20th. April 1889 was dry and warm and
early. April 1890 was cold and rainy
and "vegetation backward. Peaches were
slightly damaged by frosts on 11th and
12th. April 1891 was normal ; vegetation
late but nealtny and promising. April
1892 had frosts to tho 10th ; . season late,
fruit trees bloomed by the loth except in
Columbia river valley. April 1893 was
eold and wet with frequent frosts ami
snow in the stock country. April 1894
had normal temperature but deficient
rainfall ; frosts did some damage on 17th
and 18t!i. Fruit was in bloom by the
10th. The present April speaks for it
self. Tub Ss aos Out. Eugene has worked
hard to get an open river to that city and
now it looks as if there was a passage ior
a iew days ; but what boat is going to
run the risks of the trip. The Guard
says: "The U. S. snag boat Corvallis
arrived here shortly before noon today.
Captain Hatch, in charge of the boat
says the channel is in au excellent con
dition, and all snags, some two or three,
will be removed on the trip down. 1I
is here to have a broken capstan repaired
by the Kugene foundry. He informs us
that the river is at an excellent boating
stage, although the, river registers only
4l3 feet above low watermark, while two
years ago it would have been impossible
for a steamer to have come here on such
a stage of water. In fact he says, the
snag boat never struck bottom between
here and llarrUbniv. He thinks at three
places a row of short piling should be
driven to confine the water at a low
stage.
A Strict Constructionist. Air. Kin-
caid, secretary of state, is a very strict
constructionist. He is Wing beard from
every day. Here is the latest : The au
thorities of the east Oregon Normal
school have sent fn for a large slice of
their appropriation, but Secretary of
State Ktncaid thinks they are not" en
titled to it that wav. He'thinks the on
ly way sanctioned hy the constitution for
the payment of monev is upon bills prop
erly audited by him. The understand

but Mr. Kincaid save it is intended for

indicted by the grand jury, and brought

Wilson was appointed by the court to de
fend him, and demurred to the indict

A Natcbai. Hcmobht. Tbe Sacra
mento Record Union say of Miss Rudolph,
who is to be at tbe opera hoae Saturday
night : Probably 500 reople assembled at
tbe Congregational church last evening to
bear Miss Kudolub. a native lamorma
girl. The faar pieces sbe chose were ex
cellently renoered, they were strong con
trast and proved her versatility. She is
natural in the character sbeagsnnies and
was warmly recalled after each number and
thus had the beartv endorsement of her
dience whom sbe p leaned thoroughly. The
lady is a natural bumonst and enjoys nrr
work, certainly if sbe does not she is a
most artful woman and consummate actress.
Farming That Pats. Samuel Smith,
who lives near Coburg, a few davu ago
sold to Fisher & W'atkins, of this city,
eight head of yearling calves that aver
age (00 pounds gross weight, lor which
he received the sum of $112. He pastur
ed these calves on forty acres of fall
wheat, and the grain is only better for
inch treatment. 3lr. Smith says the
lvea made him more clear money than
.he entire wheat field would produce.

A Convict Choir. A Portland man

While at the penitentiary I attended a
service, which was conducted bv a choir
of 16 men, 14 of whom are from Portland.
Among them are mllison, the ex
preacher, Reinhart, Lusk and Green,
Green who is serving a 10-years' sen
tence, is the conductor, and Lusk is the
organist. AU have "well-trained voices,
and the son eg are excellently rendered.
The Portland boys also have a choir of
their own, which is known as the Mult

after an inspection of the Santiam mines

sign for Santiam.

In its writeti; of the reci-nt musical
at the residence of J. K. Hryson in Cor
vallis, the Gazette compliments an Al
bany vocalist as follows: While each
number was rendered in such a finished
manner as to de cve special mention,
still it would no. lie unfair to speak par
ticularly of Mies Bertha Kllis' rendition
of the aria. Her enunciation was splen
did, the words of tbo recitative portions
heme clean cut and pcrfectiv distinct.
The cantelena passages were sung with
good ragard lor expression anil with
much feelinir. Mis Ellis showed a fine
dramatic instinct throughout the whole
ana and worked up to the climax at the
end, bringing out high "b" with a strong.
pure tone. She has the faculty of throw
ing herself into her work, and infuses
the whole with a charming personality,
a point so lacking in many singers. The
ana is from the opera "Freischutz," bv
Vtelier, and was called "Soitly Sighing. '
in this selection her efforts were so favor
ably received that the fair singer was
compelled to resiiond to an enrore.and de
lighted her auditors with a splendid ren
dition of "Thou Art So Like A Flower.
Without wishing to detract in the least
from the natural ability of Miss Ellis, still
it would only lie justice to her instructor to
state, that much of the teaching which
she evidences having had was received
under the direction of .Mr. ash.

It may lead to serious conse
quences. Cough remedies will
not do it, because it means more
than a simple cold. Scott's
Emulsion of Cod-liver Oil with
Jlypophosphitcs will do it, and
r.t the same time will build up
nnd fortify tho system against
further attacks.

and Colds that quantity will
doubtless cure. If it ia deep

Accident to E. N. Tavm. The Har
risburg Review tells about it: Judge E.
N. Tandy was on his wav intothecity on
last Monday morning with his market
wagon, when Mr. Holloway's children
came driving up behind him with a
buggy which frightened the judge's
borss, and in their scare became un
manageable. In the melee the double
tree broke freeing horses from the wagon,
and carrying Mr. Tandy bodily over the
forward end-gate of the wagon hed, snd
in Wing freed from the lines was left in
front of the wagon, which had gained a
momentum sufficient to carry it forward,
the lore wheel running over the judge
until the hind wheel rested on the back
of his head with his face downward in
the mud. Only for the timely appear
ance of v illie Bueey on the scene his
doom wonld ' have been sealed for he
could not have extricate! himself with
out help. Willie got him from under the
wheel and took him to Mr. 1. isusey s
residence and relieved him of his muddy
plight; they examined him closely for
broken tones or dislocated joints but
found neither. He was fearfully braised
and lacerate!, but left with indomni ta
ble will and great vital force he will
speedily recover. Judge Tandy has
been very unfortunate; this iwtug tne
second narrow escape with his life within
the last year.

28,000,000 bushels of grain were used for
iquor in a year; 1 1,000,000,000 yearly
spent for liquor; for every 100 persons
killed in tbe Japanese war, 1500 hundred
have been killed by strong drink ; New
York City was corrupt to the core
through the influence of the liquor traffic.
These are examples. Municipal leagues
are being formed fn many c-f the tug

against tbe corruption of thecttyo3icia!s.
The saloons sell on Sunday; to minor?
without licenses; they allow women to
serve behind their bars, and ealor.ns are
found in theaters, ail against law. There
is more drunkenness from Sunday open

big cities it wastes the laboring man's
wages.
