Alma Snodgrass, a young lady about 17 years of age, generally esteemed on account of the possession of amiable traits of character, vas found dead last uundsv afternoon, near her home in Tygh Valley, aHa'ched to the horns of a aide saddle by her hoops. Misn Snodgrass started for Sunday school from the residence of Sir Charles Bonney, about 10 o'clock in thn morn ing, riding an animal which was con sidered gentle . and reliable, and was found dead at 4, having been dragged in the saddle a long distance. She was almost in a nude condition, her clo'.hes being torn from her in shreds, and nothing remaining on Inr but a collar around her neck and.tho shoes and stockings. Her neck was broken ,and skull fractured, and it is supposed that death was instantaneous.

The Oregon Board of Immigration has determined to fit up another exhibit car and send it taut, aa was done last season. Mr D D Prettyman, of Sleni, was selected aa thn most suitable person to take charge of tjiis important work. The purpose is to fill a large, car wiih all sorts of opecimens- pvegotabln and mineral with hich Oregon abounds, and what it is capable of producing Thia will include gold Imaring quartz' coal, iron, copper,, nalena, tin, timW, grains, grasses, fruits and vegetables, Mr Prettyman's duties will bo to visit every portion of the State and collect from all sources these articles; to bring them to Portland, suitably classify and amnge them in a car pre pared expressly for that puipose. The work of collection will lm commenced about harvest time and pushed forward as rapidly as. pra:ticable. thelnttn. 1. i tinn of tlm board la to have the start east as soon astho collection can be completed. The car will be confined almost exclusively to the northwestern States in its travels. One short trip only will be made to the Atlantio States. Already four pressing invitations have been received by tho board from the olucers of as many expositions in the western States to have this exhibit car visit them when it goes east. Bill Ne on lilt Birthplace. A man ought not to criticiso his birthplace, I presumo, and yet. if ( I were to do it all over again, I do not Inow whether I would select that very spot or not, and yet,' what memories cluster about that old house. There was where I first met niy parentf. It was at that time that an acquaintance sprang up which has ripened in latter years into mutual respect and esteem. It was there that what might be termed a causual meeting took plaw thxt has, under the alchomv of resist Inns years, turned to golden, links, forming a pleasant but powerful bond of union between my jarents ,and myself. For that ren-snn I hope that I may be. spared to my j nii nts for many yer.rs to come. There on that spot, with no inheritance hut a predisposi tion, to premature ba'dncss a bitter hatred to rum ; with no personal property but a misfit suspender and a stoim bruis, began a life, history which has never ceased to lm a warning to people who sell groceries on err dit.

It in estimated tliac so ' far tnin Reason twnnty-five or twenty. six fishermen have been drowned. Cer tain it is that half that number or any of them is altogether too many. Thn cause arises largely from the reckless ooirtpetolion of thn fishermen in ven turing out too far toward the mouth of thn rivor. Somn one casts' his net in a dangerous part, makes a good haul and gets back safely, Others see this, and next day venture out, get caught in squalls or capsized and swamped by breakers and are lost. Thn state of Oregon and Jerritpry of Washington have a duty to perform in this behalf. Fishing should not lm allowed below certain rcasoniMfl points on the river and laws to provnnt such fishing should be enacted. ...
