Accidental Shooting.
Mabkl, Oiieoon, Deo. 50, 1885.
On last Monday evening as Frank Cou

home from the postofiice, Frank Carrying a
double barrel shot gun, they ' cfimmenced

right barrel was discharged, ths contents
entering the right thigh of young Stewart
Fortunately, however, he had a uiagaine in
his coat pocket which was folded in such a
manner that the charge passed through
several thicknesses of the book aud through
his coat and pants pocket, so that the force
of the charge was pretty well spent, fnnr nf
the shot however entering the thigh causing

Albany Herald.
The Moukrn Nnwsr-APKR. Bill Nye de
scribes the Modern Newspaper thusly: The
Newspaper of to-day is library. It is an
encyclopedia, a poem, a biography, a his
tory, a prophecy, a director, time table,
a romance! a cook book, a guide, a horoscope,
an art critic, a political resume, a ground
plan of the civilized world, a low-priced mul
turn in parvo. It is a se.rmon, a song, a cir
cus, an obitrmry, a picnic, a ship' wreck, a
symphony iu solid brevier, a medley of life
and death,' grand aggregation of man's
glory and his shame. It is, in short, a
bird's eye view of all the magnanimnity aud
and meanness, the joys aud griefs, the
births and deaths, the pride and poverty of
the world, and all for three dollars a year in
advance. We will here state that the
Guard will be furnished for 2.50 per year1.
A Row. Last Saturday about midnight

Willamette street near Goldsmith's store.
Ross appeared before Recorder Shaw Mon

flourishing a knife over the body of Ross.
After hearing the evidence the Recorder
found Robert guilty, and sentenced him to
nineteen day in the city jail and to pay the
coats of trial. During the row some un
known person fired a pistol shot which went
through Roberts' hat, then scalped Elroy
Coffin's hand and went through his coat.
Mr Coffin was trying to separate the com
batants when the shot was tired.

Public School.
I expected as soon as school closed for a
vaciJun to publish a list of the pupils of my
det, rfrtment who stood foremost in their
studies, but for ce. tain reason I have con
cluded net to do art. It is customary with
some school in tha East tn publish, from time
to time, a statement of thi kind known as a
'roll of honor." I have often conscientiously
doiiUed the advisableness of such a plan for
reasons, perhaps, not necessary to state here.
H iwever, I may conclude to publish ch a
list in! the future. In making out the standing
of my pupils I rank deportment on an equality
with mathematics and other studies; this puts
a pupil, who is naturally bright but disposed
to be mischievous or vicious, on his good be
havior in order to save his standing. So far as
attendance and punctuality are concerned the
following named were neither tardy nor absent
during the term: Wilton Martin, John" Ma
dura, Joseph Liles, J Weider, Chester Osburn,
Mairgie Whipple, Ellen Tuter, Mary Drake

The Hetslan Fly.
Mr J A Pll'nej , of Jnnction precinct, called
at this office but Wednesday afternoon, aud
gave the editor information concerning the
prevalence of the Hessian Fly in the fields of
Lans county. He had with him some last
years stuhbl pulled from a field owned by
Mr Samuel Meek. By cutting th joint on
each stubble th fly was plainly visible. Mr
P informs us that be had examined th stubble
In at least fifty different fields and found the
fly prevalent in all of them, therefore he is of
the opinion that th Held in Lans county a.
generally thus afflicted. He Is of th further
opinion that the light yield of wheat of last
year was caused by the ravages of these in
sects. W herewith give full description '
the Insect, taken from Chamber' Encyclope

often retarded by circumstances. It need
dui very rem at these Insects to cause the
plant to wittier and perish. The larvae attain
their full Mm Id five or six weeks, whan tha
are 1-7 of an Inch long, and have the appear
ance of flax seed. In April and May the fly
is releared and soon betrins to lav itji tirira nn
the young wheat blades of both autumn and
spring sowing. The eggs attain the pupa state
(flaxseed appearance) in June and July, the fly
appearing in the autumn tn lav the eggs for
the next spring brood. Many of these do not
come to maturity till after harvest, remaining
for time in th stubble in tha Duna atata.
The Hessian fly is said to have been first seen
in ini country on Itaten Island in 1776 near
Y Sir William Howe disembarked the
lan soldiers under his command: and from
this circumstance received its name. Tha
crogrej of the insect seems to hsva been about
20 mile in a year, miuraifng in swarms. It is
a difficult pest toget ridTof, and th eradica
tion requires concert nf action among the far'
mers. If the straw contain any insect in tm
pupa state it should be buined. Tha etuhhla
should be cut quite long so as to give as much
