Sunday's Albany Herald has the fol lowing: 'Tn the evening & large and intelll t!cn audience assembled at the opera house, ami enjoyed an excellent lec- ure bv l'reMdeiit Chaiimau, at he talked for the University of Oregon and incidentally lor the other state i-chool. , Ho hoped soon thut the character of tho gradmitet from the university would generally nnd fully advertise'thu school. He denied em phatically that there was any truth In the assertion that the lionr people were required to pay the expense of supporting the State University. Agricultural College at Corvalllt and Slate Normal School nt Monmouth, and ll.at only childien of rich people attended thoso schools. He showed that n virv few of rich men's children attended these schools, and that the Uri-e nialoritv of the ttudeuts were from the poor men's children. He truthfully claimed that the wealthy men puv for the public, high schools, while the poor men a children reap the benefits thereof. He showed, In his i Mil und emphatic, manner, the henelits and necessities of higher edu cation. The wise American citizen is t lie one prepare himself for life's work by taking advantage of the very best schools he can reach. The jues lion of teaching higher grades in the public school was shown la its jtru e neeeoHity and light." Ali-o this concerning the teachers' meeting held in that city Saturday afteruoi.'ii: "President Chapman, of the State University, who was present, being in the city for a lecture In the opera house iu the evening, gave some ex eelluni eompliuieuiary remarks, in re viewing the papers that nan Deeu read. "Prof J It Wetherbee, who hus charge of the hygiene and physical edu cation at the Slate University, who was present exhibited a large number of photogrnphs of that institution. The University now number 4'J3 students." Cottage Grove-Lenifttl Items. Lender, March 28. The now two story city hall of Lem nti Is up and being rapidly advanced. Mrs Ella Houston, grand chiefol the Itathbone Sisters, was visiting that lodge In Cottage Grove Saturday night. So far about 20 cur of baled hay Pave been shipped here. Twenty more will nrobahly follow this spring. We are told that it does not pay to raise hay. Perhaps not, but the editor of the Leader and hui.dreds of others have land that will make five tons to the acre, of vetch hay after having cut one crop to feed green. This hay is better than any that has sold at seven and eight dollars a ton here the past winter. Some people have a queer Idea a to what "pays." FitoM His Homk.

Ihoinrh Mrs Smith and her family have Ikimi thrown into a conntum ite of tlm greatest fear by the repeated nnd per alsteut cllorts of their Persecutor lo tuke their lives. Iu the last visits made by th person who would have the lives of Mrs Smith and her lamilv, he left anonymous notice of warning, In which he makes the threat that he will conliuuo to visit the orcnilsc until he accomplishes hlsohject. He also predicts dire DunUhmeut for the family after death. Alls smith lathe widow of the late lliriim Smith, a man who was quite wealthy and prominent In social and political life, lie owned lurize tract ol land below Cohurg, and at one time was candidate for congress. He has la-en dead for a number of years. Mis Smith i now aged "3 year and live on a firm about four miles oelow Co burg. On last Tuesday another attempt was made lo administer posiou to the family. Some unknown person visit ed the house during the dav and left some kind of powder on the lops of so nejurs ol milk. Mrs tmilih does not kno.v what the powder was but thinks it was the same kind of posiou t hat Is used lo destro;' rats and squirrel. On this visit the person left two notes. They read at follows: NOTE NO I. "Done by an unknown friend. I intend to kill you all. My name I will not May hell punish yntr; g d you. You all, I will kill you all. M. A. E. 8 F. S. V. C. 8. L. 8." NOTE NO. 2. "Done by an envious friend, ami will come again. Have been five times already; g d you (OIKS." On the nftoruooii of the next day the unknown person again visited the premise and put another kind of powder iu the cream in the pantry Thisxiwder was of a whitish color, looked like so la ami tasted like con cent rated lye. On this visit two more notices were left a folio, vs. NOTE no. 3. "The ones we want to kill i Hiram Smith, L Smith, Mary Smiih, Clara Smith." NOTE No. 4. "I am coming again; this is done by one you will ueVer know. God is building the tire for you now ;g d you." On the days that (he above notices and the supposed poison were left, Mrs Smith and the two little girh were alone at the farm, the young men Leet and Hiram being absent on hiiMlue. Judging iroio the way note No, 3 read It would seem that the unknown party only desired to lake the lives of the four orphan children who live with Mr Smith. lesturday tho family persecutor aguiu gained admittance to (lie prem ises, unseen bv anyone, and scattered poison ahotit tn the well and wittering troughs and In the grain bin. Thwart ed thus far In his efforts lo lake the lives of the members of the family. this mvsterlouk individuul now seems determined to pois.n the stock on thu ranch. The fumlly now live In constant terror, not knowing what minule their proerty may he destroyed or their lives taken by this unseen enemy, who from the very fler.dlshuess of hia actions, must be some person who is bordering on the brink of Insanity. The matter has been placed in the hands of the officer of this city, who will ferret it rut and doubtless hi a short time show the guilty party up under tlie powerful light ol the law.

Ihlfr. ; It is a question If there exists any where in the world a society made up entirely of th weaker sex that con tains within iUelf more vital force, more intellet iual and moral activity than the Chicago Woman's Club. Like evert thing tlse Iu this great rushing, vigorous, young common wealth, it is full of energy, alive with hopefulness and looks with eager eyes toward a splendid future. liecuiise we have u Woman's Club iu Eugeuu that Is destined to achieve beautiful things, lo realize fair Ideals aud to Ihjcoiiic a ermaiieul power, nil vjr active lutluence in our eltv of Dreams Iu tho laud of Lotus, 1 lake for granted lhat something about this wonderful club hue In Chicago w ill interest you, in a way. l.y the way the organization In Ktlgeue act-ilia lo have been closely modeled ufter the Chicago Woman's Club of which Mia Lydla Avery Coonley is president. Junlawoid l- fore we proceed with I he u;uli, atsiut Mr CiKiuley herself, who is and has long Isx-ll u rectigi.ixtd leader In the socidnud literary world or Chicago. She Is the uulhor of one of the most delightful Look of vct'rc published lust vear. True to her Southern blood she Is the soul of hospitality and her house is always open lo the struggling young artist und the umbitlout w ilier. The sunshlu') and Mwcetncssofhirown noble nature lire reflected In livr little volume, "Under the Pines," of which I shall tell you nioru at a later date. liut Mrs Coonley i only one of a club of distinguished women. Among the eight hundred members of tho Chicago Woiuhu's Club there are authois, lecturers, artists, U-achcrs and shall 1 say it? politicians. As the guest of one of the charter members, I, yesterday, had the pleasure of listening to a lecture from Prof Arnold Tompkins of the Chicago University, upon "Iteaiity a a Factor iu Education." It happened lo be the day for the educational department to appear aud thu lecture wu iiproio of the Chicago public school agitation w hich thui-e women through the dally press a e directing hi (ho hoe of re forming and elevating lilts Institution. Aud if ever anything needed to lie re formed und elevated it is thu public school sv.teiu of Chicago. A limited acquaintance with (ho luelllclency of whutistutit io ne one oi me ocsi schools on the Norih side, gave mo a feeling of respect for our owu schools Iu l-.ugene and increased a paruoname pride In (he working force thereof. At llrt I could ' oi deitrmine whether It wus the superlative excellence of our own, or l lie appalling ignorance or in public school lei.chcrs hero that con stituted the dillerence. In (he light nf reeiit n-veltitioii made lit the I educational department of the Chicago omuu's 1 lub, 1 have concluded dial both have something to do with It. Among the many brilliant aud gifted women who to k part In thu discussion which lollowed the lecture yesterday were Miss Kiev, Miss Amer ican and Mrs Siurrctt, all well aud widely known. One aesthetically gowned lady was p rtlculariy Interesting and from ttie faet that she ssike to softly U was Im possible to understand a word she said. This gave her audience nn o nortuuit v to study the arlislie effect of her marvelous draperies. It 1 true (here were a few people in (he back of (ho room who were loo far away lo prollt by this chance, and who perhisteudy cried out "louder, louder," every two minutes, hut Ibu fair speaker was deaf to all such demand. She held her graceful pose and murmured softly and sweetly on aud ou like Tenneysou's "llr 10k." It was my good fortune to fall Into tho kindly hands ol the author ol that delightful new book "One of the Mc Iutyres." Amelia Weed Holbrook is not only an author, a writer of book and plays, but a lecturer as well und above all, a typical club woiuuu. I don't know how many io owes allegiance to, but ahe Invited me (o aileiid at least a dozen aud took the trouble to Introduce me to so many remaikable womeu that I was glad to eacupe at last tt the tea room and find a quiet corner where I could sit down unit collect my tcallor ed thoughts. While I rested there with a dainty hit of Diesdeu in olio hand and the thinnest of thin sand wlches in the other and listened to a lovely old lady w ho was telling nu about her visit to Oregon years ago, the artist eniiie In und paaed by my chair. I wu iiilereslcd In Ihls artist and more particularly Interested in her g'.wu. For I hud Ju-t heard her from tho platform denounie every kind of machinery that had ever been Invented and say further that no gar ment of any sort or fashion could lie "either becoming or beautiful lhat wus made by nuy but a woman of education and culture." She was Isilh laautifully and becomingly gowned and I had a woman's curiosity to see whether she put her own theories iulo practice. I canui lo the conclusion that she did not and Hint she was suffering from an overdose of Kuskiii. One of the event nf ihe week was 8lr Henry Irving' addrcs to the senior of tho Chicago University. It Is indicative of something, surely, w hen a great Institution of learning so avowedly religious us tho U of V Invites an actor to lecture to it giadu utlng class. It I an honor, not lo Sir Henry ulouo, Pill io me singe, ironi one point of view nnd au honor well deserved. Thut the public can appre ciate legitimate drama in I his age of sensationalism ha been amply proven in Chi ao this seasn. Paderenskl bus come and gone and is coming once again. ''I wonder If I shall fall a victim to his mysterious charms," I remarked lo a Irlond to whom I mentioned Ihe fact I hut we had tickets lo thu concert where ho wu 'o play.

"No man or woman, particularly woman, can resist his mu sic." liiit'l contiiul'id lo wonder and when the day and hour arrived sat expectant und eager "wall log," as Kallnka expressed it, "lo be Ihiilled."

(Esler 8; I, 2.) Ou baiklng Into the civil affair of our city, ol our slute, and of our repub lic, we, loo. can say "1 have teen st r vault upon horses, and prince walk ing as servants upon Ihe earth." We can see that our government has aouio defects In It, il Is not, as yet au Ideal government. (Is. 13: 12; Esl. 8:U; Luke 0: 6167; Malt. 12: 30; Prov. 21) ;2.)

"He that dlggelli a pit shall fall Into It; and whoso brvakelh au hedge, a ser,s-nl shall bite him. Who soreinovclh stones shall be hurt there with; aud he thai ch avelh wisid shall lie endangered thereby. If the Iron be hluiilsud he do tint whet the edge, then must he put to more strength: but wisdom is prolltahle to direct." When one undertakes to "overcome evil with good," be la sine to Inevl with opxad lioii fiom "the evil a serient shall bite him" (Act 28: 8-0; Luke 6: 30-811." IfChrlstlun Ideals are ever realized In our United Slates government, It will be brought about by ulilzone who have Christ-like Ideal; by tntlzens who know what 1 right am w ho are willing to hazard everything In order (o see (he right prevail. (Acta 6: 20; Daniel 2: 16-10.1 We may not live to see Eugene, Ore- foil, or lb United State deVelovd nto what we conceive lo be Christian Ideals, but we are duty hound lo labor to bring them as Pear (o (hi as possi ble.
