The old Brooks homestead at the town of Brooks, 8 miles from Salem, has just changed hands, haying been sold by the attorney in fact for the estate, Mr. E. S. Brooks. There is always some- f thing pathetic in a transfer of this kind. It was entered forty-two years ago by Mr. L. Brooks and wife, both now deceased. Numberless memories associated in separably with the old place will re vive in the minds of the remaining members of the family, some of the younger of whom have been brought up there from infancy. The children of Linus Brooks, were E. S., H., and S. L. Brooks, and Mrs. E. M. Brainard, and there are seven grandchildren of the old folks, who knew every nook and corner of the old home place and cannot but be saddened at the thought of re linquishing it to others. Solicitous Sadie. Sadie Quiner, the pretty young woman whom Edwin Hahn loved so madly that he tried to kill her, and ended by getting two years in the penitentiary, is doing all within a woman's power to obtain pardon for him. This morning she called upon District Attorney Hume and made a heroic attempt to enlist his sympathies and get him to sign the peti tion. Mr. Hume said he was of the opinion when he convicted Hahn that the young man was guilty, and has had no cause to change his mind. Mr. Hume'did not sign it. Telegram. MARRIED.

The report of the stock inspector of Marion county relative to trichina has considerably agitated that region. The physicians generally disbelieve the exis tence of the dread parasite in that county, and say there has never been a case, ine matter is so serious that it should be sifted to the bottom and either established or refuted. Yesterday was the last day allowed by Jaw for school clerks to report to the county superintendent, or forfeit their funds for the coming year. Eight die tricts have failed to report so far. The county superintendent himself is liable to a fine of one hundred dollars if his re port to the state superintendent is not ' on time, and this cannot be made till all the districts report to him.

The twenty-five games were so quickly played, and the hours so pleasantly passed by the Union Whist Club last evening that all seemed rather sur prised when called ipon to give ac count of their scores. However, the supriso was not so great but that'Mrs. Peters was more surprised at the beauty of the first ' prize, which she was so for tunate as to win ; but Mr. Bayard, if not so lucky in playing, was not less fortunate in winning the booby. They were the handiwork of the hostess, Mrs. Morgan, who, in the absence of Mr. Morgan, acquitted herself nobly in the art of entertaining.

Friday, March 10th, by singing, and all united in repeating the Lord's prayer. In a few well-chosen remarks, Supt. Shelley outlined the work of the insti tute. Prof. Frazier gave a suitable re sponse, showing how to enjoy the insti tute and make it a success; and declar ing that educated' people have all the great authors of the world for their com panions and instructors. As but few schools are in session at this time of year, there . were but few. teachers present, but the programme was made strong and interesting by a number of bright pupils from the advanced class in the Dufur public school. 'The citizens of Dufur and vicinity showed their interest in the cause of ed ucation, and their appreciation of the work being done by Supt. Shelley and his co-laborers by their attendance, and by whole-souled hospitality. After apT pointing a number of committees, and selecting L. B.

It was followed by an essay, "Geolog ical Formation of the World as Seen in a Vision by the Prophet Moses," written by A. J. Dufur, Sr., but read by his granddaughter, Blanche Dufur. Then followed short speeches by citi zens of Dufur and a few visitors.
