K n ow n a s “th e Sun D ra w in g Water.**
Sometimes in the evening, some little
tim e before and during tw ilight, and
sometimes—though rarer—before and
during sunrise, a close observer may de­
tect peculiar, fanlike streams of darker
and lighter shading across the sky.
These streaks, of which the plainer ones
may num ber from four to six, together
form a triangle, w ith its base on the
horizon and extending out at varying
altitudes.
This appearance still holds rank as an
unexplained phenomenon in nature. It
occurs only occasionally. There may be
a fine illustration ou a given evening,
and while there may be a week of clear
sunsets succeeding not a trace of the
streaks w’ill he visible.
From this it would seem th at a par­
ticular atmospheric condition m ust be
one of the factors in its production.
The assumption would be supported by
numerous analogies not necessary to
enumerate. In the proper atmosphere,
then, let it be assumed th a t the streaks
are due to alternate lines of shade and
light.
Now, let something tq some extent
obstruct the rays of the sun which has
set, either an impediment in the distant
landscape or an unseen cloud, the com­
bination at the proper angle w ith the
observer’s vision, and it is probable that
he may approach a solution of the long
standing puzzle.
The fanlike appearance is such for the
same reason th at the lines in a brick
w all leading away from the observer
seem to focalize to a center, as do also
railw ay tracks seemingly come together
in the distance. These zodiacal lines
are undoubtedly parallels, as are lines of
cloud streaks th at to our vision seem to
point to a common starting p o in t It
is more than probable that this modest
and unobtrusive streaking of the clear
evening sky has been unsolved because
of its very simplicity. I t is probably
only a modification of w hat is common­
ly known as “ the sun draw iug water. ”

The R ight Hon. Sir George Grey, K.
C. B., of New Zealand, now visiting
England, says in the Illustrated Lon­
don News:
“ I call myself a conservative. Old
machinery w on’t drive a new world.
The old changes and m ust be replaced.
Take the wom an’s vote, which is now
a hard and fast and excellent fact in
New Zealand. Yon’ll have it in Eng­
land by and by, but for the present you
are losing half the intellect of the na­
tion, and more, I make bold to say, than
half the virtue of the nation. ”
The News describes Sir George Grey
as “ one of the greatest English procon­
suls of the century, the first statesman
in the affection and achievements of
A ustralian democracy. ’’ This testi­
mony is all the more weighty in the
case of New Zealand, where not only
the w hite but the Maori women as well
are adm itted to the franchise, a reliance
upon principles of justice which should
shame Am erica’s uniform expediency
and distrust of equal rights.—Boston

The California Liuly-Bird ‘ and Its Kftcrtive
Work.
Many persons probably have but little
idea of the importance of the introduc­
tion into the state of the lady­
birds mentioned some time since as Lav­
ing been received by the board of horti­
culture to be distributed among orchard-
ists for the destruction of the San Jose
scale. Iu California, where they have
had more experience with various kinds
of scale and lady-birds, the VRlue of the
latter is better understood. The little
Mack lady bird, introduced there two
years ago from Australia, has beeu a
great success, proving itself us relentless
an enemy of the terrible black scale as
was the “vedalis eardinalis,” which he.B
effectually destroyed the cottou-cushiou
pest throughout that state.
The black scale has been in California
for 30 years, aud threatened to entirely
destroy many orchards iu the coast coun­
ties. Tens of thousands of dollars have
been spent auDually, in spraying aud
fumigating, but these have not destroyed
the pest, but only mitigated it.
Fortunately the black lady-bird was
found by a man sent to Australia for that
purpose, by the state board of horticul­
ture. The first arrived in 1892. Teu pairs
were placed iu nu olive orchard at Santa
Barbara, where they multiplied prodig-
ously. aud from them SIX),000 were dis­
tributed over the infested district, colo­
nies being generally all liberated ou one
tree to spread therefrom. So completely
has the lady-bird destroyed the black
scale in that section that it was neces­
sary to seud for quarantine officer Crau
to devise some means of keeping the bugs
from starving to death. Mr. Ciau found
that the lady-birds had turned tbeir at­
tention to other pests, the walnut aud
orange aphides. He says:
“ When the proper parasite is once es­
tablished it is not desirable that the pest
on which it feeds should lie thoroughly
eradicated. The ideal condition of affairs
is that it should be reduced to the mini­
mum quantity commensurate with the
sustenance of its enemy. {Should this re­
sult not be accomplished there would
again be danger of the reiutroductiou of
the pest after the disappearance of its
parasite, and the fruit-grower would once
more be reduced to the cosily and in­
effectual process of spraying.”
As to the value of the black lady-bird,
Mr. Cran says:
“I t is difficult to place a pecuniary esti­
mate on the value of the enemy of the
black 6cale. In one respect, however, the
saving in spraying and fumigating will
probably represent $100,000 a year to the
horticulturists of California. Elwood
Cooper alone has of late years been com­
pelled to expend from $3000 to $5000 per
annum for this purpose, while there are
four or five fruit-growers in Los Angeles
county alone who pay out an average of
$10,000 each annually in battling against
the black scale. All this will be saved,
for the little beetle costs nothing. Then,
iu addition to the economy, the trees will
be more healthful and consequently will
bear more plentifully aud a belter quality
of fruit. The officers of the board of hor­
ticulture are satisfied that the black scale
is doomed, as was the cotton cushion, and
are now turning their attention to the
discovery of a parasite that will war on
the red scale, which is causing much an­
noyance and loss to the orange-growers
of the South.”
This terrible black scale is not likely
to trouble Oregon orchards, as it only
flourishes in a dry country, but, from the
above statements, some idea may be
formed of the good effects likely to re­
sult from the introduction of the twice-
stabbed lady-bug here to prey on the San
Jose scale, which has become a great pest
in many sections. The sprayiug and
fumigation of the trees must be abandoned
where the lady-bird is introduced, and
the little bug left to wrestle with the
scale alone.—(Oregonian.

A peculiar and striking costume is of
brocade in two shades of green, with bod­
ice, sleeves und sash of thick white moire.
Partly worn sleeves may be made as
good as new by cutting off the lower por­
tion andjjutting in deep cuffs of any suit­
able material.
Felt hats are shown with indented
crowns and brims quite decidedly rolled.
The brims are a little broader than those
heretofore worn.
Coarse, black, rough and ready straw
will be worn through the autumn. In ­
deed it is not unusual to see these hats
until holiday time.
Leather trimming, which was intro­
duced some years ago to a limited extent,
is to be again brought out. Some of these
garnitures are elegant in the extreme.
With the return of cooler days and the
necessity for wraps of some sort, the enor­
mous bow of watered ribbon reappears as
a finish for the front of the outside gar­
ment.
There are new and stylish coat jackets
of cloth iu various shades of gray and
brown. These have deep collar and cuffs
of velvet, with flat pockets. Many of the
latest coats are cut quite on the fashion of
those of gentlemen, with the exception of
the additional fullness at the skirts.
There has been a good deal of effort to
get out something radically new in tailor
costume this season. Among the novel­
ties to be presented are dresses with very
narrow breadths, each breadth piped or
jorded either with fancy woven cord or
□ne with a silk cover.—New^fork Ledger.

will be tried in the United States circuit
court at an early date, probably before
the first installment of the debt of $15,-

at once. Garter expects to receive defi­

A Singular Accident.
Florence Weet: Ole Myrind, a resi­
dent of Sweet Creek, was camped at
Rose Hill with Frank Hartley. Ou F ri­
day morning of last week My. Myrind
arose very early and taking two vessels,
one iu each hand, started ou a trail that
had been receutly made for water. He
w'as tripped by some object aud fell for­
ward, the sharp end of a brush cut off
with a brush book, entering the face just
below the eye aud tearing its way into
the nostril thiough the bone. The suf­
ferer was taken to Gardiner, where a sur­
geon took out five pieces of boue, aud
Mr. Myrind returned to Florence on Squ-
day. The shock was so great aud the
pain so severe, that up to the present
time the injured man has retained but
very little food in his stomach. The
doctor pronounced the injury not neces­
sarily fatal, but it will require close at­
tention to prevent such a termination.
Indigent Soldier Tax.
Bids for the lodging of indigent sol­
diers aud soldiers' widows iu Douglas
county were opened Saturday evening by
the Reno post committee aud the con­
tract was awarded to Mrs. Ketcbel, whose
bid was the lowest of a dozen or more
bids, at $11 per mouth. The fuuds for
keeping them comes from the taxpayers
of the county, one-fifth of a mill being
levied each year for thi6 purpose. This
money is expeuded under direction of
ReDo poet, G. A. R., of this city, the
commander o f the post giving a boud to
the couuty court for the faithful dis­
charge of the duty. He delegates the
authority to a committee, which this year
consists of J. G. Flook, J. W. Wright and
John Hamlin. Three indigent soldiers
are being kept in this city at present,
while a number more throughout the
county are receiving allowances from the
fund. Mexican war, Indian war and civil
war veterans are alike entitled to share iu
this relief.—[Roseburg Review.

R. D. Hume is perhaps the best author­
ity ou salmon and salmon culture iu the
United States, and has spent a lifetime
in, and made a study of the business.
He has clearly proven that salmon do not
migrate from one portion of the coast to
another, but almost invariably return to
the waters wherein they were spawned.
He also proved that salmon do not die
from spawning, but that their death after
spawning is due to the fact that they be­
come worn out, emaciated aud injured iu
reaching the spawning beds and guard­
ing the spawn and consequently are not
able to get back to salt water, dying gen­
erally from over exertion iu reaching the
spawning beds. Iu proof of this latter
fact, Mr. Hume, at hie hatchery here, has
kept salmon till ripe, spawned them, then
marked them, aud turned them loose in
the stream. These same fish have after­
wards been caught by fishermen in the
river, perfectly strong aud healthy, and
in good condition, thus proving, by many
such instances, that salmon do not die
from spawning, and will live aud grow if
they have the oppornunity.
Young fish from the hatchery,here have
also beeu caught aud marked, then turned
loose; and iu after years, when grown to
full maturity these,fish have been[caught
here, thus proving that the fish return to
the stream in which they were spawned,
aud contiuue to return there year after

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn that there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh. Hall’s
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now
known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh
being a oonstntional disease, requires a
ooDStational treatment. Hall’s Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the
system, thereby destroying the foundation
of the disease, and giving the patient
strength by building up the constitution
and assisting nature in doing its work.
