A Good Platform. Eugene has a Christian Alliance, of all the churches, regardless Of creed, with the following platform : 1. United work for humanitv. It seeks co-operation of every good citixen. whether he is a member of a church or not. ' n e can all stand together iu th stmgglefor the common good. z. Unselfish work for mankind. It means clear up the malarial swamps. I hat we may all have Dure air to breathe. Destroy the alluring temptations in the social environments. It is better to pre vent than to punish evil. 3. ratriotisin and good citizenship. Make our city, more and more a place of unison, of peace, prosperity and safety. A place to which parents will delight to send their sons and daughters for educa tion. 4. Thi movement stands for every thing that tends to purify, to beautify, to exalt the stand rd of soi-iat lire. It is the friend -f and promises to aid every movement that promises to develop no ble, ethical character. As Okecon- Sttdest.

Wednesday night some of them did Irving in Lane county, robbing the store of A. Bond A Son. and securing $200 in money. A iunnv thing was done in connection with it. The Guard says: Thrve auspicious characters were seen at Irving last evening and Engineer Jack cvans retnaaked to Mr. Bond that if any robberies are committed tonight they can be laid to those individuals." Acting noon this suggestion Mr. lion. I did not fasten the combination ot hit safe, as he felt confident that should ex pert burglars enter the etore and find the safe locked they would break itopen, while an amateur would supposethe safe to be locked. Mr. Bond was evidently right in his snrmisps, for the burglars bad come prepared to break open the sate, having armed themselves with all the necessary tools, "h they had pro cured from an adjoinikiftlacksmith shop. The burglar or burglars effected an en trance to the store by prying opeu tbe front door. Two tramps were arrested about mid night in this city.

A correspondent from tbe Blue River mines to the Eugene Guard tells the fol lowing: W. B.

Had be remained ir the buggy be and Alvy Stevens would have both gona into the McKenxie river. As it was, when the team Wit tlo g'cade, the driver, Mr. Stevens, made a successful jump for his me. But the strangest feature of the whole matter was the horses keeping their feet and the buggy remaining right side up, plunged into the wild stream. The horses swam ont into the river about 100 feet, then swimming down the stream about 100 yards, suddenly turned again and came to the bank, and walked out of the water, aith everything intact.

The third trial was made last night and was a success, A small coil of wire, a screw about Vi inches in length and a small thumb screw vice were placed upon the slide of a sensitized plate and covered over with blocks of wood and the ray from the Crookes tube turned on. An electrical wire had become rusted and connected so that it formed a short cir cuit. After an exposure of five minutes this short circuit was formed and the ef fect of the ray spoiled. The plate was taken out and today developed by Mr. " inter when ttie shadow of all tbree of the objects could plainly be seen upon it, though an exposure of only five minutes bad hewn made. An exposure of one cr two hours would doubtless give tbe de sired result. Guard. Sn.ifiD Bs Asiiiacu.

Another periment was made in the State univer sity with the fol low i ok retult, given by the Guard : Last night a trial was made Qnon the bones of the hand.

J . ti. tveuierucw placed his hand immediately over the Hon tine paper, which had btea put there tor the purpose of absorbing the moisture of tbe band. Tbe Cathode ray was turned directy upon the hand and an ex posure of 30 minutes made. Today tbe plate was developed by Mr. Winter and a proof taken. An outline of the whole iiand is shown, bat through it its bonwi are nlainlv visible from the oalm to the tips of the finger. Tbe knuckles and form of the bones of the fingers sre quite distinct and the experiment can be said to be most successful. Ait Evkntftl Ltr.i. G. If.
