The prince came wooing the maiden fair,
But a maiden of low degree,
Yet she was the child of a millionaire,
And poor as a crow was he;
As poor as a crow was he, and since
His debts must needs be paid,
The reason Is clear why the haughty prince
Came wooing the low-born maid.

THE BRANCH ASYLUM.
Polk County Man Gets an Injunction
Against Its Location.
A Salem dispatch' savs:
For the purpose of testing the legality.
of the legislative act of 1893. as to
whether it is constitutional, an injunc
tion is to be brought against the loca
tion and erection of the branch insane
asylum in Eastern Oregon. This time
the injunction is coming from Polk
county, the complainant being A. C
Taylor, a prominent and influential
farmer of Perrydale. The papers in the
case have already, been prepared, and
service will be had and suit will be com
menced before Judge Burnett this week
in Salem. W. H. Holmes and H. J
Bigger of this city have been retained
as attorneys for Mr. Taylor and those
who are associated with him in the case
The action is to be commenced at once
the object being to stop all proceedings
before any further expense has been
created before thei governor, secretary
of state and state treasurer shall have
purchased the site selected and taken
active steps looking to the erection of
the necessary buildings.
NEWS OF THE STATE.
"Piccalilli" was the word before which
all Albany, in spelling school assembled
went down ignominiomsly. -
Oregon apples would bring $2 a bushel
in London, so a man there writes to the
Salem Statesman. He has just received
some, which made the trip without In
jury or deterioration.
An enterprising Albany young woman
has adopted the dress of Salem's Rainy
Day Club, and when she went out last
Saturday she drew-the crowd all away
from the "Uncle Tom's Cabin" parade
which had unfortunately clashed dates
with her. :
The Deer creek (Josephine county(
settlers are complaining of the deer law
which makes it a crime to kill deer for
even home nse and those animals are
becoming very destructive of . vegetable
gardens ont there. Fences will not
keep them out and they raid gardens at
night and clean out in a short time a
patch of "garden sass" that would keep
a family all year. By daylight the ani
mals are ten miles away in the hills.

A itellc of Old-London.
, One of the most interesting relics of
old London is St. John's gate, Clerken
well, which, because it does not hap-
pen to lie in one of the mam arteries
of the hig city, is not so well knowny
even to Londoners, as it should be. . It
is the only remaining1 portion of the
important Priory of St. John, which
dates from the fourteenth century. The
old gateway' has a literary interest at-
lacneu io n, ior in me room aoove tne
archway Dr. Johnson worked for Cave,
the printer, for a small weekly stipend;
and the Gentleman's Magazine, which
to this day bears a picture of the arch
way on its cover, was first printed
here. The archway had latterly be
come much defaced and weather-worn,
but it has recently been restored as a
memorial to the duke of Clarence, who
was first sub-prior of the Order of St.
Johq. The order as now revived Vm-
braces the St. John Ambulance associ
ation and is busy m other good works.
Hand-Made Beauty. .
If you see a woman in the street cars
occupied with rubbing the tips of her
fingers up and down on her face, don't
imagine that she is crazy or attempt
ing' to mesmerize anyone. She is not.
She has been reading m the woman's
corner of some daily paper that to out
wit time and remove wrinkles a woman
snould occupy some of her leisure mas
saging her face gently, to rub the
wrinkles out.
They Discuss Tariff.
Washington, Feb. 13. Tbe senate
finance committee devoted nearly all day
to work on the tariff bill. They held a
brief conference with Voorhees. ' The
whisky tax and bonded period will be
considered tomorrow. It looks now as
if sugar will be allowed to remain on the
free liet, and that the income tax will
be retained. The subcommittee has de
finitely decided not to change the wool
schedules in the house bill. Wool men
have not, however given up the fight,
but say they will appeal from the deci
sion of the committee to the senate,
and are putting in a good deal
of time laying facts and arguments be
fore individual members. Democratic
members of the committee now tell the
republican members the tariff bill will
certainly be in shape for presentation to
the full committee next Tue3day.
