The Mohr Portage.
In the matter of the portage road there
is little new to report. Contractor Glenn
has been in town for several days, but
commencement of actual work seems to
be hanging on the arrival of Paul Mohr.
The scrapers, carts, etc., which arrived
from Portland last week were taken "up
to Grants and there ferried across the
river. When work begins it is probable
it will be commenced at the east end of
the line, near Columbus, though it is
not yet definitely settled.

Sheep Dip For Chickens.
Walla Walla Statesman.
C. E. Sherlock, one of Lake county's
greatest sheep growers, says that he has
been experimenting with sheep dip.
Being informed by the stock inspector
that dipping ckickena would increase
their laying qualities, he dipped eighty
of hia fine hens. The result was that
sixty of the eighty were dead next morn
ing. Some Indiana took the dead chick
ens away and ate them, and in a few
days one of them eame back and asked
Mr. Sherlock when he was going to dip
chickens again.

Herrin's Discovery.
We were shown today by Photographer
Herrin a block of wood upon which a
photograph, had been made direct, a
discovery made by him, which five years
ago would have made hia fortune,
ihough the process is not new, it is
none the less a discovery, for the seen
has been jealously guarded by its posses
sors, and there is no one in Portland
today, and but one in California who
knows how it is done. There are many
who can photograph on wood by first
coating it with gelatine or some other
substance, but it serves no purpose to
the engraver, aa he cannot tell whether
he is cutting the wood or not. For
more than a year Mr. Herrin has been
experimenting and waa about to give it
up, when one day recently, in an idle
moment, he picked up a negative at
random and waa surprised to find that
he had hit upon the formula. He haa
had several orders already from engrav
ers in Portland and Oakland, California

make a meal of it. The panther, on the
onset of the dogs, took to a tree, while

Thomaa A. Edison has completed ar
rangements to show his latest invention,
the kinetograph, at the world's fair.
The kinetograph is a remarkable device,
but not very useful ; an instrument by
which every gesture of a speaker may
be photographed and at the eame time
every word he utters ia recorded on the
cylinder of a phonograph. The two
devices are then connected, the photo
graphing apparatus and the phonograph.
By throwing the photograph on a screen
and starting the talking machine the
words and gestures of any speaker can
be reproduced. The effect produced ia
that the figure on the screen is doing the
talking. The deception ia said to be
very clever.

Senator Stanford Wanted to Expel BOO,
Stories aru already beginning to come
rrom Iceland Stanford. Jr.. tmiversitv.
at Palo Alto. Laat week about 200 stu-
aenis ies on tne DraKes of a Sat car
which was standing near the university.
and many of them got aboard and start
ed down grade toward the station. In a
short time the car was spinning along at
a lively rate, and the lads did not stop it
until it had reached Palo Alto. The car
was missinfr the following morning, and
a special engine had to be sent from Saa
Jose to haul it back.
Senator Stanford waa wrathy when he
heard of the incident, and proposed to
expel the ringleaders. It was discovered
that there were fully 200 boys engaged
in the affair, and the senator gave orders
that they should all be required to leave.
The order would probably have been en
forced but for Mrs. Stanford. She in
terceded for the youngsters, and excused
them by saying that it was only a boyish
prank. She finally succeeded in inducing
Stanford to change his resolution. Cor.
