A FEW years have made remarkable changes In the sky line of lower New York- The accompanying photograph shows buildings which wonld be entirely unknown to a New Yorker who had been abroad tive years and falls to show others ekyscraplng landmarks In theli day simply because they are hidden by moro recent structures. Unmis takable, In the center, towers the Woolworth building, the tallest In the world. The second to the right, with two towers, la the Park Row building, once tho tallest olMce building In New York. The huge new municipal build ing, with Its cupola, is seen at the extremo left in this general neighborhood. If the observer were In an aeroplano, might bo seen two other buildings, each In Its time the loftiest In the city those of tho Tribune and the World. Now, from most points on the North river water front, which forms the foreground of the picture, they are invisible by reason of their giant neighbors. Local and Personal The daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Snook, Lucile, had the misfortune a few days since to injure the ball of her eye, in some way, and the injury looked to be of a very serious nature. The child was taken to Port land Tuesday morning, where the examination of a specialist will be had.to ascertain the ex tent of the injury. The child says that she was cutting a string with a sharp pointed knife, and that the point of the knife struck her in the eye. This office was in receipt last week of a copy of the new sheet, or news paper gotten out on the Deschutes River at Maupin, in Wasco County, E. H. Overman, publisher of the Shaniko Star, for several years, is the owner. The thriving little town of Maupin is coming to the front, and with a newspaper, can be brought before the world, by showing up its recources, we de sire to offer our congratulations to our new freind Overman and the people oi Maupin ana vicin ity.
