Corvallis, Feb. 14, 187&. elVIIGR THY JEWELS. BY EVA ALICE. How jr the sight some beauteous queen In all her glitterint! pomp arrayed ; In flowiog robes-of dazzling sheen, With courtly jewels all displayed . Wilt thou be decked in yon bright sky Within the palace there be found, Arrayed in spangled robes on high, With glittering stars of glory crowned V Each loving smile, each kindly worT, Each little act of charity ; Each song that hath some bosom stir d, Shall be a starry gem for thee. Each may a beauteous garment gain A princely robe to all is free We need not seek the prize in vain A prize awaits for thee and me. But some, methinks, will brighter shine Around the glittering throne on high ; Let each one strive, by help divine, To gather jewels for the sky. ITEMS OF INTEREST.

Some investigations have just been completed by two Chicago micro scopists as to the prevalence of trich inae in the pork that comes to our markets, hat seem worthy of record. Some lime ago Dr. William T. Bel field, Demonstrator of Physiology in Rush Medical College, and Mr. II. T. Atwoodj Vice President of the State Microscopical Society of Illinois, were asked by the Commissioner of Health, of Chicago, Dr. DeWolf, to examine specimens of pork taken at random from the hogs being slaugh tered at the different slaughtering houses-. Specimens from one hundred hogs-were carefully examined, and in eight trichinae were found, the num ber varying according to estimate from thirty five to thirteen- thousand to the cubic inch of muscle. This is doubtless approximately the average of infection of tne pork brought toH Chicago for packing. The trichinous disease among hogs if disease it is must be much more prevalent now than ten or twelve years ago. Then an examination of quite a large num ber of hogs in behalf of the Academy of Sciences showed only about one in fifty infected. Messrs. Bel field and Atwood have experimented with rats and other animals, to which they have fen trichinae; and have reached the con-clusion-that,-taken in small numbers and not too frequently, any animal or man may eat these worms with impunity. A rat weighing two ounces was fed at intervals of two or three days a few trichinae for six weeks, when-ft was killed. It was full of live trichinae which, immersed in warm water, would move vigorously the estimated number in the rat being lOfcOOO. During the six weeks the rat appeared perfectly healthy. Dr. Belfield felt so sure of the innoc- nousness of small numbers of the worms, that ha made a practical test by himself eating twelve live trichina; three weeks ago. He has not expei lenced. an unpleasant symptom to date.. He believes a large per cent of our population are reallv infected with trichinae. It is a fact in confir mation of the theory of these obser vers, -that many of the infected hogs have received the trichinae without symptoms of disease, certainly with out any damage to their fattening qualities. It is surely impossible that eight per cent of all the hogs raised for market could get sick with symp toms approaching in severity those of severe human infection, without such panic among farmers as would be noticed by the whole country. Some experiments with different agents used for the destruction of the worms showed that the best mexuen sire agent was sulphurous acid; a very little of this acid, mixed with the brine in which pork is preserved or pickled, will kill all the trichinae, without, of course, any damage to the pork for any purpose. The lowest per cent of the acid required to be effectual has not yet been determin ed. Medical Record. Senate Joint Resolution No. 3.

A PLALK ISSliE OF FACTS.- Speaking of the loans to- McClane and Myers, the Standard says "it has the best of authority that Grover did not receive a cent of the money, nor was it borrowed tor his benefit.". This makes a direct issue of fact, which is verv'easily settled. Grover held a note of $3,000 against Mc Clane. To this same McClane he made a large loan out of the school fund, on very insufficient security, and with a portion ot the money this $3,000 note was paid. McClane's owh testimony before the committee shows that the money never passed through his hands. Grover simply trnsferred it from the school fund to his own pocket and gave up the note to McClane. Ihe Myers loan was made under the following circum stances: Grover sold his Salem facto ry stock, undestood to be a controll ing interest in the corporation. The persons who made the purchase had not tire money, to pay hirn. Through a circnilous transaction a water pow er at Salenr belonging to the proper ty was sold to A. Myers, to whom Grover made a loan out of the school fund, taking property of little value as security. Myers, however, did not get a dollar ot the money thus nominally borrowed. The whole sum of $10,000 was transferred directly to Grover's company by Grover him self, and the State was put off with security which has proven almost worthless. When the property was sold to Myers, and coincident in time with this school fund loan the facto ry company that is Grover ac knowledged receipt of $10,000 for the property, and trie same rs a mat ter ot public record. It these are not facts we invite any one on be half of Mr. Grover, or Mr. Grover himself, to show the contrary ; and as the Oregonian wishes to do no injus tice, it will gladly publish such stale merit, and on fair proof will wihdraw its own. Here, then, is a plain issue of fact. 1 he Standard is also good enough to say lhat it "Llnnks a public official who has money in trustshould not oan it to himself." 1 his raises the question of the loan nominally made to the West Portland Home stead Association. In this case also Grover resorted to a roundabout method to get money out ot the school fund. lie organized a straw corporation under the above name, mortgaged some land west ot fort land, which is covered with brush and timber, and is described as being "so steep that it stands edgewise;" and on this imperfect security, on which no private capitalist would loan $o,000 he took $10,000 out of the school funds, and used the money, as he him self has admitted, to "pay his debts.' Now if the Standard reallv thinks lhat a "public official who has money in trust should not loan it to himself, it will speak out in censure of this transaction without further delay And since it professes also to have the best of authority that Grover did not receive the money" on the McClane and Myers loan, it is incum bent on it to give lhat authoiity and clear up this matter. We have now as before stated, a plain issue ot fact stripped of all superfluous and irrele varit matter, and there is no longer excuse for evasion or silence on the part of those who profess f be pre oared to maintain thifc propriety ot Mr. Grover s action. Oregonian. House Joint Resolution No, IS. Whereas, by an act entitled "an act to provide for the support of the State university, approved October 21, 1876," the sum of $20,000 was appropriated for the completion and finishing the university building ;' and Whereas, there is now an aaex pended balance in the treasury, to the credit of said fund of $2,841.07, against which there haveliabilitiescon tracted to the amount of $1,402 or $1,500, with no other provision for their payment ; and in addition, the board of regents have arranged for the purchase of chemical apparatus for the use of the university, to be paid from said fund ; and Whereas, the Secretary of State doubts his right to draw further war rants against said fund after two years from date of appropriation ; therefore be it Resolved by the Legislative Assembly: That the Secretary of State be, and is hereby directed to audit all lawful claims against said appropria tion, and draw his warrants in tavor of proper parlies to the amount of unexpected balance of said appropri ation and no more.

Last week, a Mr. Moore, of Empire City, Coos county, arrived in Salem with Morris J. O'Neil, in irous. It seems that O'Neil had been arrested on suspi cion, as one Patrick Brown, an es caped convict. On arriving at the penitentiary, Mr. Moore was informed that he had the "wrong man," and Mr. O'Neil' was immediately set at liberty. But instead of paying his way back to the place of his arrest Mr. Moore told him he would have to go to work for money for that pur pose, as he bad no money to bear his expenses-back to Southern Oregon This is a great hardship on O'Neil and more so, since it is intimated that he bears no resemblance to the escaped convict. While it ia proper and right to offer rewards for escaped felons, the law should.be so guarded as to protect the rights of innocent parties: When you want to get tbe best of an argument with a woman ot thirty you should lead off with: "Now, then, a woman of your age ," etc.- More boys than girls are born in Great Britain, but statistics show that there are about a million more women than men in the kingdom.- The fifth publication of Behm and Wagner's estimates of the popula tion of the earth, lately issued, puts the increase since the last issue at 15,000,000.
