A Bicyci.k Trii. Rev V 8 Gilbert
returned from Newport via Florence
lat evening about in o'clock. He
made the trip from Xcivitort to Flor
ence on his wheel In one day easily.
In coming out from t lorence lie was
not so lucky. When about thirty
miles from 'Eugene he punctured his
bicycle tire, and fixed It up, but he
had ridden only about three miles
when lie punctured it again.- Again
lie repaired it. This modus optrandi
wits repeated a number of times, wlieu
idiotit twenty miles from here the tire
would give away aooiu every nine,
which cottiik-lled him to keen nlouiiig
it up. When lie arrived at a point
about seven miles from here the wheel
became useless und he tramped the
distance leading the bicycle, which
had caused him t-o much trouble.

We clip the following concerning
ProfJL Tait, formerly of Creswell,
and a son of the well known farmer
Join, Talt, from the Ml Sterling, Ken
tucky, Gaetle, of August 7th:
"I'rofJ L Tail, of the Ml Sterling
Female Seminary, has finally secured
Miss Anna Mlllsr, of Anderson, Ind.,
as teacher of English, Elocution and
Delsarte. Miss Miller is a lady of wide
reputation as a teacher, having U-en
for some years principal of the High
school of'Abllcne, Kansas. This po
sition she resigned two years ago to
accept tho chair of English Literature
In the High school of Anderson, Ind.
Lust spring a severe attack of la grippe
made it doubtful whether she could
resume tier work another year, ami
she was not an applicant for re-election.
A strong constitution, aided by a sum
mer in tlie country, has fully restored
tlie lady's health, and she is now in
better condition than ever.
"We eongrutulute Prof Tail and the
people of Ml Slcrli.ig on this acquisi
tion. With Miss Dixon as teacher of
French and Music, and Miss Miller for
English, Elocution and Delsarte, the
Mt Sterling Female Seminary certain
ly shows a strong faculty. Ml-s Mil
ler combines the study of English Lit
erature with that of Elocution cer
tainly a hannv combination ami one
scieulillcullv correct. Prof Talt lias
shown himself to be a mall worthy of
ootifldeiice and one thoroughly under
standing tlie science of school and col
Icce work: but in nothing has he prov
en this more clearly than In his
selection of teachers. Wo believe in
patronizing a man who understands
ills work. See Prof Tait before plac
ing your daughter in school for the
year."
Koiest Fires.
A great many forest fires are raging
at the present lime In different purls
of Oregon and Washington. Mtsttof
the conflagration are caused by set
tlers firing their 'slashing" which
carry the Dames into the heavily tim
bered country surrounding their farms,
and soon the tlmlier Is all ablaze,
spreading for miles around, and only
exhausts list It when there Is nothing
more to feed upon. This Is tine ol the
deploiable facts which our government
Is to blame for. as settlers must clear
their laud by means ot lire, the land
laws making it au olTcnwe, for which a
mini is punished severely, If he cuts
t imlc I and sella It before lie has a pat
ent to the hind. Tliot-est time a man
can And to burn his "slashing" Is
uhnn il. la llllirollirhlv llrv. a III) BS tills
Is always the most dangerous time for
the other forest, ol course we win nave
forest tires more or less In heavily tim
bered countries HkeOregou and Wash
ington. in this state the most disastrous
fires are reported near Oswego, and the
whole country for miles around there
is In flames back In the timber. A
greut ninny settlers have had to flee
from their homes to places of safety.
In Washington, the greatest damage
has been dope In tho vicinity ot Mt.
Adams.
Is IlAitu Luck. A private letter
savs after Attorney Young broke his
bicycle on the desert south ofPrlne-
vi lie lie rode on the stage to Lakevlew
where he had the wheel repaired.
Then he started out on the machine
for Liiikville, but it gave away again,
when he was compelled to make the
trip to that place on foot, as no stage
was handy, leading his badly cussed
and broken piece of machinery. When
the letter was written a blacksmith
was trying to get It In shape again.
He was badly disgusted with bicycling,
but was in excellent health. A cay use
pony Is much more reliable on the
plains of Eastern Oregon.

Cottage Grovs at once. The span will
be "o feet. It will be placed about uuu

old span was 140 feet, and by buying
flOO wortn of laud the county has
avoided the longer span.
