We have learned the particulars ot a lather bold outrage perpetrated up the Mo Keuzie, Friday evening, March 19th.

Thu would be robber, secured nothing but an old jack knife, and while leaving the premises dropped a plug of tobacco. Mr. Spores be coming alarmed at the prolonged absence of hit .on, and fearing that he had been kicked by a horse, started for the stable and found the boy coming to hi. senses, crawling around on his hands aud knees. The boy says there were two men, and descrilnis thsm as being black. It i. surmised that they are the parties who escaped from the jail here, a short time since. The boy sustained' no permanent injuries. Mr. Spore, off.rs a reward of $100 for the arrest of the guilty parties.

On last Sunday evening between the hour, of two aud five o'clock the .tore room of Frauk Suitor, at Coburg, Willamette Forks, was entered by a burglar aud $140 iu geld and $G0 in silver abstracted from the safe. Mr. Suior left the store at two o'clock, with his gun, on a shooting expedi tion, aud on his return at live became aware of toe robbery. The thief had entered the cellar of the wareroora through an air-holo, aud from this made his way to the store room through a door that was only tied with a striug. Unfortunately for Mr. Suitor, when closing the safe, lit had not put on the combination, and the burglar easily secured the spoil. Nothing else was disturbed, the burglar leaving everythiug except the coiu, exactly as he found it. Tho only clue to the perpetrator ia that he is a tobacco chewer. From all th circumstances, it is evident that the guilty party Jives in the Leighborhood, aud is familiar with the sur. rounding, of the store. STATE UNIVERSITY.

At the last meeting of tho I-aurean So ciety, the resignatioa of Mr. G.A. Dorris was accepted and the present incumbent elected to till the vactney. In justice to the gentleman, it is enough to any that the so ciety had great confidence ia bis ability as editor, and had he not been called, away business, he wisJiM have tilled this position with honor to liimst If and prido to the so ciety. It has long been the custom to re gard the afureiaid as one of the pillars of the Lauieans,but whoa the burden of editing the paper fell upou his shoulders, lte collapsed aud iu his fall tlie load full npou our bead. The departure of Mr. Dorris has left tho so ciety unsupported, and deprived our presi dent of his right bower. The only conso!a tieu that Mr Noland has iu this bitter ex tremity is the satisfaction .that he will be able to suppress all disorder, if not by r- iaintntary law, at least by that gavel which he wields so courageously. As ho sits in the chair of Statu with that formidable weapon in his baud, one would alinast iinagiuo him self iu the presence of old Samson. In entering upon this task we are awaro of our inability to present any extensivo news before the public, and therefore bespeak a certain share of your indulgence. Trusting that we will be able to express our ideas iu as forcible aud concise a manner as possible, and that we will advance this scheme that has been inaugurated, until it shall assume a permanent feature of our society.

The rhetorical exercises in Prof. Catch's room last r nuay were uncommonly interest ing. The programme was ueatly p'rintcd on the board and consisted of orations, essays, Acclamations and quotations from prominent authors. These quotations are a new feature in our rhotoricals, aud are interesting as well as valuable one. Shakspeare, Cooper, Mil ton, Wordsworth, Pope and others were quoted from. Some literary gems were thus introduced. The junior division consists of about 20 'hoplites," aud Prof. Gateh is doing much towards drilling this division, determined that it shall become as famous as that illustrious tenth legion of Caesar. The great want now is visitors, and iu order to secure them Professor Gatch is talking of making negotiations with an Eastern firm to furnish cheap chromos which he will oiler as an inducement to citi zens of Eugene to attend rhetorical exercises so that the bashful junior, may became ac customed to speaking before company. Only four visitors were prescut last Fri day four young ladies "Sweet six teens."

Seats tree, ami we never "pass the bat." Laurean News. On Friday eveuing, Mar. 19th, our usually quiet Bociety was agreeably surprised, as after calling the roll, JIou. K. B. Cochran, arose from his seat, and presented the so ciety with a haudsome gavel. He Bpoke of the various uses of the gavel in deliberative bodies, and of its efficiency in maintaining order and decorum. He hoped its rap would resound through the Laurean Hall announc ing decisions rendered in all fairness and im partiality. The seciety thankfully appre ciated the gift, and especially the kindly in terest manifested by the gentleman in behalf I of the society. The question for debate, "Should the State be taxed for the support of Higher Ed ucation," was one of interest as was shown by the mauy participant, in the debate. Al though a great majority of tho students have scholarships, yot the negative side pre vailed.
