R, B. Cochran, Chairman. TITACHER3 INSTITUTE For the Second Judicial District Lane County Talent. The District Institute convened at Rose burg nn the 4th inst, and was -egularly at tended by about one hundred teacher, be sides many school director i aud other citi zens. Lane, lion ton, Co s, Douglas, Curry, Liun and Marion counties were represented; but the largest delegations were from Lane and Donglna. " Mr W 0 Taylor of the State University, delivered an eloquent response, which mer ited the applause he received. Prof W T Slater, principal of the Eugene Public School, discussed the subject, "How Gram.nar should be taught." His views were comprehensive, his argnihents sound, and his points sustained. He i generally looked upon a a light that will reflect its splendor on hi Alma Mater. On Tlit'rsd.if afternoon some crossfiring began, and Mrs J E Feutou and Ntrs Kanoff, of Eugene, advanced to the rescde and proved satisfactorily that yomen have uo superiors in the school room, and that they are justly entitled, ordinarily, to as high re Ci'iupense as their brothers. y Friday the writer was not premnt, but was informed that Mrs W T Jackson, of Eugene, introduced "Primary Reading." Good reading is essential to good conversa tion. Compared reading in monotone with a landscape id but one shape and color. She spoke at length of this very important branch of study. Miss Nettie McCornack, of Eugene, also niRile some very interesting remarks on this subject. Miss G E MeLnfforty, . of Eugene Public School; read a paper on "Language Les sons." Her work was listened to with deep interest by all, and ranked among the best to which the teachers aud friends had the pleasure of listening. The exercises of tile Institute were Inter spersed with excellent music, much of which was furnished by the Eugene talent. Dur ing the evening sessions standing room could not be found by scores', At the musical aud eh biitionary enter tainiuent, given on Friday evening, the house was lilted at an early hour. The re, citations by Misses Fruuo L Odell, Nettie McCoruack, and Clara Andrews were choice selections well performed in a style, graceful but not affected. The solo and duett by Misses Mae Underwood, Mary McCofnack, Clara Am'lrews, Franc Odell, Nettie McCor uack and Mr J E Fenton, were artistically rendered, melodious and full of expression. The proceeds were enough to defray the ex penses of tlili Institute. H. Taken to Portland. Chris Kaegle, men tion of whose ai rest and being taken to Portland waa make in last week' issne, plead guilty aud was fined $25. Chris main tained his innocence, but a well known citi zen of Eugene who happened to visit the un fortunate old man Sunday, and seeing him thrown in a filthy jail aud among a hardened set of criminals, took pity on him, and after considerab'e argument convinced Chris to plead guilty. The gentleinau who paid his fine does not have a doubt of his being in nocent. After we went to press last week the Marshal came back from Portland aud subpoenaed two Indians, one of whom was Spores' Jim, who the informant or inform ants claimed had got the whisky. Wr talked to both of them, and they said they would make an affidavit that Chris had not given or sold them whisky, and would so testify before the U S Courts. 1 he general opinion of our citizens is that Chris ws innocent of the charge made, although the ignoraut old German was induced to plead guilty so he would escape being compelled to lie in a lilthy dungeon several days. Enterprihi.no. One day this week meander ing around town in search of items, we hap pened to step into the elegant store of Mrs C W Fitch. She bad jrit received her stock of Spring goo Is and the same were being placed on the shelves. The goods consisted of all kinds of articles to be found in a first-class Ladies Furnishing Goods Store, and were of the beat quality, which we were informed would be sold at prices that defy competition. The stock is the largest of tbe kind ever brought to this city. We were also informed that a large stock of millinery goods would be received direct from San Francisco about April 1st Mr Fitch is doing a large business, and is deservedly popular among the ladies of Eugene.

We clip the tallowing letter from the Sun- day Oregonian, written by tho editor, Mr -ll.. . u ki i u V' : a mi v iicrry, one 01 uiv nwmst wnwia in Oregon. It will bring meitWrie of the past back to the minds of all our old citizens; We reached Fugeue a few hiinutes after 2 pm. What a pleasure it was to walk about the (trett of .the old towu where I lived thirteen years ago this Summer, up to the completion of the O A C railroad to that point I was the last stage agent at Eugene, aud well do I remeirtbei when I was ordered to turu oyer all my books to A II Burrows, agent at Roseburg. And the old town look just as inviting to n'e a it did when the light used to come flashing dowu the long streets and the driver's hora echoed out through the midnight stillness above the rumble of the heavy Concord couch. The jolly old knights of the whip are gone, never to returu there Johnny Clark, Joe Bcggs, Milo Mathews, Nrd Payne, Kill Brannan, Tom Tyndale, Jim Adams, and a host of men whose vocation in Oregon ended with the very first dsy of the uew railroad era. In those days, too, the P T boats used to go np to Engerie; the old Albany, Fauny Patton andf Active, under command of such old timers as Aarou Vickcrs, James Miller and "Uncle Baa." All these things are changed now. The crowds no longer gather nn Skin ner's Btltte of a clear April day, to sei the Echo swing around the bend below town, nor flocft down to tho bank to congratulate "Doo" McCully ou a quick trip. The trains come and go, the conductor assists a lady or two into the car; waves hi hand to the en gineer, who open the throttle and away goes the train. The freight train comes soon after and nobody sees that but the draymen and teamsters. And such is the difference between my days i stage agent at Eugene and the present era of quick trains and no steamboats. Add yet the town looks well; belter than any town I saw from th time I left until I got back to Portland. There is no boom in business whatever, for the farmers are either plowing or seeding, and the stores are compara tively idle. But the town is improving and boasts some very neat and elegant residents in its outskirts. Many of these are being erected by wealthy fanners and cattle men who "have come to town for the purpose of schooling their children. Tbe University has done all this good for Eugene, and the public school building is as handsome an edifice as can be found in the State outside of Portland. Having dined at the Albany depot, we made no stop on arriving at the St Charles, but drop ped our overcoats and walked b'dt Ninth street toward the Uuiversity. How the old days came back to me as I looked at the old and dingy buildiugs on the old road to California and thought of the thirteen years that had flown by since. I first rattled In over that mad on top of the big Concord coach. The day was bright and warm, indeed it would have been called a fine day even in Los Angeles or Santa Barbara, Robins twittered from the leafless maples and larks caroled from the hedgerows, while Spencer Butte rose from the plain like a vast emerald, and the coast range beyond was a darker azure than the sky. We walked out past the University at first, clear up to the rocky point where Hallet blasted out a path for the railroad, and where! giant pow der was used for the first time in Oregon. Then back to the University, for the day's work was done and all the classes had been dismissed. Old Mr Dudley took us all through the building and showed us all there was to be neen. The building was built on honor and will compare favorably with sny of the State i.-,? . . I ... .11 i:..t.....l l l edifices, being well lighted and ventilated and in every way calculated to impart cheerfulness to study. The great trouble is at present a want of room, the society room lein actually given up to Prof Johnson for the recitation of his classes. There is a great deal of idle money in the State treasury, and some of it should he devoted to the erectiou of a south wing to the University, for it is not only a credit to Eugene but to the entire State as welL ' Arrived at Eugene City. The war waged in the Eastern States by life insurance companies against the order of United Workmen, has arrived and begun work in onr town. Men are canvassing this city and county soliciting life insurance for eastern companies. They carry in their pock ets,' papers prepared by the insurance com panies for canvassing purposes, containing the names of over four hundred fraudulent swind ling concerns, that took their existence in a day and died in a year from their annate rot tenness These agents also ought to be in better busi nessexhibit their rotten list of names to the people, and liksn them to the order of United Workmen. Tbe Ancient order of United Workmen is not an insurance company; it is a United Brotherhood, with simple words, signs and grips, by which one member may know another by night as well as by day, and when a brother dies the order gives to his widow, or children, or mother, or sister, or to whom' the brother may direct, 92,000. It employ no agents on large commission to travel in its behalf, and belie other societies. It has no President or Board of Directors on large salaries, to gather script and send among the people to mislead them. It stands alone on its intrinsic worth and merit its work so simple' aud it charge to cheap, that it commend itself to the intel ligence of all the people who exam me it It now ha 105 mtmbers in Lane county and there is room for 500 more able bodied men between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years, at $20 per annum. Any person in Lane county who wishes to provide $2,000 for his family after death, can obtain information from any of tbe members of Eugene Lodge No 15.

Next Friday the Lauroaus debate the question, "Resolved, That the signs of the times indicate a Republican victory." HS Johnson and Win Miller suppoi t the affirma tive; W I Vauter and F L Moore the nega tive. Leap year has not come in vain. We un derstand that a lady Normal has offered to a Laurean the privilege of paying all her taxes, and that he, after due deliberation, has con cluded to do so. We learn that there will soon be set on't in the University campus some oak trees,' which have been donatod by Mr HC Hus ton of this county, and which he raised from acorus that he brought from the Eastern States. How many will follow Mr Huston's kind example? By a few more such' gifts aud in a little tinVe, the University campus weuld not present so bare au appearance as at the preseut time. A very enjoyable picnio was participated in by several students last Monday. Early in the afternoon they betook themselves to a place near Skinner's Butte, and although some of the circumstance i were not quite a the party would have had them, they all enjoyed themselves very iriu'oh As this peaceable (?) party was retnruing home, it was met by the 1 resident, who, tearing lest that the health of the individual would be endangered by picnicing so early in th sea- sen, requested them to attend a very seleot reception to be held the next aiternoon at about 1 o'clock, and to which he had invited the other members of the faculty. Although the participants ot the picnic were very pleasantly entertained at the reception, they say that they nevertheless would like to know which on would have "whipped. fn Two Acts. j act I.
